Image: 544 - Multi-York, HK and Parker-Knoll collection re-upholstered
This week we completely re-upholstered a collection of contemporary furniture, comprising quality furniture from "Multi-York", "HK" and "Parker Knoll" collected by our client over the last fifty years!
We completely re-upholstered one three seater sofa, one two seater sofa, one "HK" chair, one "Parker Knoll" armchair and footstools which complemented each other perfectly and looked stunning once all renovated and re-upholstered in a best quality flame retardant "J Brown" tweed fabric.
We replaced existing seat cushion interiors with best quality flame retardant "Reflex" interiors, which carry a ten-year guarantee. They were also wrapped in a secondary casing, comprising Dacron and stockinette, to prolong cushion life. The existing back cushion interiors on the two seater sofa were in good order and did not, therefore, need to be replaced. They were, however, re-worked to restore them to "as new". However, existing back cushion interiors on the three seater sofa were replaced with best quality flame retardant "Fibre-fill" interiors. The combination of "Reflex" and "Fibre-fill" ensures maximum comfort, quality and durability. All pieces were stripped back to the frame and all interiors replaced with best quality flame retardant interiors, to restore them all to "as new" condition.
Our client absolutely loved the result and said they all looked brand new!

My best girlfriend has a daughter Thing One's age. She's had a tough time with middle school, courtesy of the resident group of 'mean girls' in their grade. She and Thing One have known each other since kindergarten and through the years have become very close friends. This girl got on the school bus on Friday afternoon with a storm cloud hanging over her head. As she later reported to her mother, Thing One immediately asked her what the [unkind but fully-justified epithet for the mean girls redacted] had done now. Upon hearing that they had nothing to do with her bad mood, he then asked if her boyfriend (who is a buddy of his) was being an idiot again and if he needed to go talk some sense into him! I'm so glad that those two jump to each other's defenses the way they do and you could NOT pay me enough to go back to middle school. (shudder)
My girlfriend was laughing when she told me that story, but then the conversation took a more somber turn. My friend also has a daughter Thing Two's age, who, due to the nonmutable pecking order of school bus seating that has the oldest kids in the back and the youngest in the front, sits close to Thing Two in the middle of the bus somewhere. Apparently the younger daughter came home on Friday and informed her mother that a couple of the kids on the bus were bullying Thing Two. She and Thing Two have been classmates since preschool and she is VERY protective of him, as is her big sister. The younger girl was absolutely livid. I made some calls, another mother sent an email, and apparently the situation was addressed at the school level today. I'm supposed to get a call tomorrow morning explaining what happened. Independently of whatever happened at school, though, the older daughter also took matters into her own hands. Seems that the girl on the bus who was responsible for the bullying (another fifth grader) got herself read the riot act loudly and publicly by one tall, beautiful and really seriously pissed-off eighth grader after school today! God I love that kid. And her little sister, too.

text: Guys, Dont know if this is the right thread to post this request. Mods if you feel this needs a seperate thread, pls let me know or move accordingly. Thanks in advance. Need some info on the trip I am planning in 3rd week of March 2014 (Courtsey my son's school vacations) to Shimla-Kullu Manali. My wife has been averse to the tour operator option as this curtails the freedom and have to keep moving betwen places. So we thought we make our won itenary. I am not allowed to take the Punto (wife simply put her foot down in this case). So it will be public transportation. The outline of the trip would be: 1) Fly or train travel to Delhi, Take a Volvo (HRTC???) to Shimla. Is there a direct flight to Shimla from Mumbai? 2) Stayput in Shimla for 2 nights (min) 3) Start mid afternoon to Manali, Stayput for 3 nights (min) 4) Travel from Manali to Delhi (Time reqd????) 5) Visit imp sites in Delhi, stayput for 2 nights 6) Cover Agra 7) Return back to Mumbai (Flight/train) Let me know what should I modify/keep in mind/whether the plan seems doable/good budget hotels in Shimla, Manali, Delhi etc. TFIians who have recently travelled can share their experiences.

We like our sports stars to conform to a higher standard of humanity than ordinary humans. If you have the combination of talent, luck and nous to play for a living, you're also expected to have the grace, dignity and ethics of a higher degree than most.
Is it fair? Is the burden of being a better person fair to tag onto to the gift of being a better sportsperson? Is it how it should be? Is it natural that when you're in a privileged position, you must obviously conform to a high standard? I have no straight answers to this. It seems a laudable goal at times. It seems way too harsh at other times when young men from sometimes modest backgrounds are thrust into a lime-lit world that nothing in life has prepared them for.
It's not quite fifty shades, but there's a fair bit of grey there. But one fact is undeniable: when you do see an athlete who is as poised on the field as off it, it is beautiful. You cannot fail to be uplifted by it.
It was the sort of class that Rafael Nadal showed immediately after his fourth-round defeat to Gilles Muller in this year's Wimbledon Championships. This had looked like Nadal's year. A combination of injury issues and some natural wear and tear meant he didn't have great results on Wimbledon's lawns since 2012. Before that, the last five times he'd participated in Wimbledon, he had made the final. This was the year to show that the old skill not just lingered but had come roaring back. This seemed to be Rafa's time, and that was borne out by his ultra-dominant shows in the first three rounds. And then to be outlasted in a fifth set – it's like someone beating Virat Kohli because they were fitter. It just didn't happen, couldn't happen with Nadal. Until the end, I remained convinced as did many others, that despite facing more pressure on his serve, despite Muller having more chances to win, it would be Nadal's resilience that would ultimately come through. He must have believed it too, after all he'd done it so often and been in such good form this year.
This defeat, therefore, must have been harder. Even those of us who expect more from our sportsmen would have forgiven Nadal if he decided to slip. He would have been allowed to scowl at the world, to be brusque with fans, to be retreat into a shell and lick his wounds. But what did we get? We got Nadal waiting to walk off court with his conqueror, we got him going over to sign several autographs for fans before making his way back to the changing rooms. We got a glimpse of a champion beyond the tennis court.
My tennis loyalties were set nearly a decade and a half back when I saw a Swiss maestro waltz across tennis courts and play like he was fantasy come to life. By rights, given that Roger Federer has lost to Nadal more often and more heartbreakingly than to anyone else, I should have harboured, if not ill-will than certainly no affection for Nadal. But it is impossible to do, because of the grace the man from Manacor unfailingly shows wherever he goes. And it is not a sentiment I'm alone in sharing. That is the beauty of champions – they make you rise above yourself too.
Does cricket do that? Like anything else in life, it does sometimes, and not so much at other times.
Ever since his transformation from bad-boy, rebel-without-a-cause to statesman-like leader, Kohli has provided several of those moments. He has known the right shot to play at the right ball, sometimes the outrageous shot even. But he has also known the right word to say at the right occasion. As recently as the Champions Trophy final, Kohli's grace in defeat and generous praise of Pakistan was lauded and applauded by almost everyone, save a regrettable minority at The Oval who thought that would be the apt moment to boo the opposing captain.
Earlier, during India's home season, Kohli took India to victory in an ODI against New Zealand after being dropped by Ross Taylor early on. Post-match, he endearingly commiserated with Taylor and recalled how tough those moments could be, because he had been at the receiving end of one when he had dropped Brendon McCullum who went on to make a triple-century.
Which is why it was disappointing to hear the same Kohli utter – there is no other way of putting it – falsehoods during one of his press conferences during the Champions Trophy. Asked about the swirling rumours of a fallout with Anil Kumble, the captain said among other things of those who had written it up that "they're trying to create some nice livelihood. And that's all we can say" while denying completely that there was any problem between him and the coach.
He later said, "I think here the lack of patience is very high and people speculate a lot from afar. When it is not true, nobody writes that it was our mistake. Nobody accepts their own mistakes. I have seen these things. That's why I don't focus on such things. If you've written, then tomorrow you have to take ownership of it. If it's not there, I won't speculate and even if I do, and I'm proved wrong then I'll tell that 'Yes, I was wrong'."
If Kohli has to live up to those words he should, in all fairness, admit that he was wrong – not in wanting a change of coach, but in casting aspersions on those who had written that a problem existed. For insinuating that things were being made up, when they hadn't. On the eve of a big tournament, not disclosing a rift that would invite unnecessary spotlight on the team is understandable, but why not do it without adding the layer of smear?
Maybe this is falls in the realm of expecting too much. After all, the Indian cricket ledger is markedly in the positive when it comes to Kohli. On the field naturally, but off it too. He's human and allowed his slip-ups, and maybe we should just leave it at that since the past coach saga is now well and truly done with.
But like Kohli himself has shown often enough, and Nadal showed, when sporting champions turn graceful champions, there is an added frisson that elevates the moment and the athlete beyond their already exalted status.

Kevin said the facility always does an awesome job and he is always pleased with the service and the results. They kept him updated and his vehicle looks wonderful. The repairs were delayed by two days because they found additional damage, but the insurance company warned him that might happen, so it wasn't a big deal.

Nearly three months after the original Trump travel ban sent him back home, an Iranian looking to move to Florida arrived in Orlando again Wednesday night.
This time, U.S. Customs let him in.
Askar Sahebjam, 73, the father of a Tampa brain surgeon, landed at Orlando International Airport on a Lufthansa flight from Frankfurt just before 5:30 p.m. His daughter, Solmaz Sahebjam, was there at the gate nervously awaiting her father. At first sight of him, she took off running and threw her arms around her father's neck, sobbing tears of joy into his shoulder.
"I feel very, very good," he said, smiling. "I haven't seen her in [two] years."

I'm an author with the general theme of "Everyone's crazy somehow; some people just hide it better than others." My characters have a variety of backgrounds, coping mechanisms, allergies, and placements on the sexual-asexual spectrum.
(Easter egg for fans of the "A Fistful of..." books: Narrators aren't always right in their assumptions about gender or orientation. Percentages among named characters approximate real life-wait for books 6+.)
I also freelance as a ghostwriter, editor, and HTML/CSS specialist.

Why do I post a FIRST draft on Fridays?
I do this for several reasons, one of which being that some fans and fellow writers are interested in seeing what the story looks like in first draft form. Those uninterested in reading a first draft can wait for the final version.

Djokovic should not find life too difficult before the semi-finals but a clash with Nadal, seeded four due to Roger Federer's absence, would be tough. The Spaniard is back to something like his best this season and he could give the world number one plenty to think about. If the Serb came through that, I would give Murray a good shout in the final. At odds-on, I'd be laying Djokovic.
Andy Murray has a great chance to reach the final with Stan Wawrinka his only real obstacle. The defending champion has a nasty habit of throwing in a shocker when you least expect it but that would be a corking semi-final. Murray's price has halved since before his Rome win over Djokovic but I still think he is a good each-way proposition as, despite his split with coach Amelie Mauresmo, he has never played better on clay.
Open an account with BetBright and get 12/1 about Andy Murray winning the French Open
I am still not convinced Nadal is playing well enough to win this so I am looking to Dominic Thiem to upset him on his way to having an extended run. The pair are drawn to meet in the third round and the young Austrian is well and truly on the up. He hits the ball extremely hard off both wings with a jaw-droppingly beautiful flat single-handed backhand as well as a seriously potent serve. While he does seem to suffer a lull in his matches, I believe it is a case of when rather than if he wins the French and, at the prices, I'm prepared to get involved this year. He would be no bigger than 5-2 to beat Nadal so 13-2 to win the third quarter looks big from here. And he would certainly give Djokovic plenty to think about so the 50-1 outright is worth an each-way dabble.
As far as the first round goes, Marcel Granollers has had a decent clay-court season so far and I think he is good value at 15-8 do beat the somewhat inconsistent Fabio Fognini. I also think 13-8 is fair about Viktor Troicki upsetting Grigor Dimitrov whose record at Roland Garros is nothing to write home about. The big-serving Serb is a dangerous opponent if he is on his game and Dimitrov's temperament is certainly suspect of late as demonstrated by his racket-smashing default in the Istanbul final against Diego Schwartzman.

|System of arrangement
The Sample Collection is organized into various 'series.' The term series may have been applied to this collection when Churchill Weavers hired an archivist in 2002 to process its archive. A copy of the Guide to the Weaving Archive produced by Virginia Daley, project archivist, accompanies the collection. This guide indicates that the bulk of the textile samples are arranged into the following series: Year-Box Series, Cloth Number Series, Early Style Number Series and Master Sample Series. The original arrangement of the boxes was kept during the processing of the weaving samples at the Kentucky Historical Society. The original Churchill Weavers numbers are written on the box labels along with the new box numbers.
The Cloth Number Series was the earliest form of numbering weaving fabrics. Woven fabrics were assigned cloth numbers regardless of the final product (yardage, throws, scarves, etc.) In the early cloth number scheme, different cloth numbers would be assigned to exact fabric that different only in color. Later, single cloth numbers reflect not only a wide range of variant patterns and colors but also variations in the weave caused by different yarns. These Cloth Numbers run from 1 up to 399. The cloth/style number scheme runs from about 400 to 999. These early style numbers reflect a number assigned to a final product and often refer to the cloth number as the type of fabric used.
Around 1933 Churchill Weavers started a coded style number scheme to indicate the type of product, the year created, and the number of products in that line. The coded system is the primary organizing principle behind the Master Sample Series. Churchill Weavers began with four digit style numbers and then later incorporated five digits to clarify the dating on items produced. The first digit in the style number identifies the type of product, 1xxxx refers to scarves, 2xxxx bags, 3xxxx baby blankets, 4xxxx throws, 5xxxx stoles, 6xxxx yardage, 7xxxx cravats, 8xxxx ready-to-wear, and 9xxxx is linens. The date can be determined by the second and third digits. If the number is 35476, the baby blanket was designed in 1954. The last digit identifies the number within that product line, i.e. the baby blanket was 76th in that 1954 line. Experimentals in the collection incorporate a letter as the second digit, for example, 3D59. This can be confusing as experimentals through to 1938, x0xx, have a '0' in the second digit.
The second largest series is the Year-Box Series, which is arranged chronologically by year and there under by box number. The format is like 1932-5. The sequence of boxes within a specific year generally reflects the style numbering sequence, i.e. the scarves (1xxx) will be in the earlier boxes and the cravat yardage (7xxx) will be in the latter boxes of any given year.
In each series, there are boxes labeled as "Outside Purchases" and "Unidentified" objects. Materials of a particular product type, for example, outside purchased scarves, are grouped under the 1xxxxs series of scarves.
Outside Purchases refer to items not made by Churchill Weavers, but were acquired because of their similarity or "potential applicability to Churchill lines." Unidentified items are items that Ms. Daley could not find style numbers for during her archival project.

text: Hello! I've had my Desire over a month now, we've had some teething problems but this is the most consistent one - there's no call waiting notification on my phone. I've missed about 3 calls and several texts while in another call, but my phone doesn't give me any indication that there is something else going on. Some cursory googling found that other people have had their Desire make weird noises instead of a call waiting tone, but mine has nothing at all. Anyone have this happen to them or any ideas how to fix it? Although I'm fairly happy around technology I'm not too keen to root my phone, what with warranties and insurance and stuff. Thanks in advance!

Remembering the Non-mom Me/
I know I'm not saying anything novel or profound here. And if not all, the vast majority of mothers out there have asked this age old question...
What in the WORLD did I do with all my time before baby???
Seriously. Nine months ago—er—nine GLORIOUS months ago, I would have made a Saturday to-do list with five things on it and I would have accomplished maybe three of them. And not because I didn't want to run those errands but rather I "just didn't have time."
The horror, right? Who did I think I was?? If Mom Me saw Non-mom Me just slacking off on a random Saturday I'd...give her a pat on the back and another vodka.
Truly. I'm actually really happy that Non-mom Me didn't listen too closely when all my other mom friends were discussing birthing plans, baby food making and daycare waitlists. If I had, Non-mom Me would have huddled in a corner and put a sheet over my head. But now that that is my life, I sometimes spend Friday nights making homemade baby food. And I did make a 3-page birth plan in preparation. And daycare waitlists? Yeah, we're on six of 'em.
Yet with all of this planning and doing comes a bit of anxiety and questioning. Is my baby sleeping enough? Which daycare should we choose? Am I reading to her enough? Can I really breastfeed for another three months? Slow your roll Mom Me! When I get all wound up with these questions, I try to step back and remind myself that I'm doing the best I can and that's enough. And in times of deep craze, I reference some of my fav quotes:
Have you got a friend that's a new mama? We've just launched our new mama box to give her that much-needed moment to herself, that much-needed moment to remember her own Non-momself. She deserves all of that love and support you've got to give her. After all, we all remember our own Non-mom Me. The good ole glory days of Saturday slacking have made way to the soul-filling (and gray-hair inducing) beauty of becoming the Mom Me. Wouldn't have it any other way.

Rhys Webb claims Wallabies hoodoo doesn't bother Wales
Rhys Webb says that Wales' long run of losses to Australia is not in the thought process ahead of Saturday's clash.
Wales open a testing autumn schedule in Cardiff - Argentina, Japan and South Africa are also on the November programme - aiming to halt a run of 11 successive defeats against Australia.
They have not beaten the Wallabies since November 2008 - head coach Warren Gatland's 11th Test in charge - with only two starters from that match, centre Jamie Roberts and prop Gethin Jenkins, expected to feature this weekend.
Six of the defeats were by five points or less, and although Wales average 18 points a game against Australia during that barren sequence, they still await a win.
Scrum-half Webb insists it is not a hot topic of conversation in the Wales camp.
"Obviously, there have been plenty of opportunities against Australia, but that's for you guys (media) to talk about - the narrow losses," the Ospreys and Wales number nine said.
"We certainly haven't been thinking about it these last two weeks.
"We are just going to concentrate on ourselves. We have learnt from our tour to New Zealand (in June). We talked about what we needed to do better. We know what we need to do, and we know we need to play for 80 minutes.
"We are professional rugby players, and we want to play games to win. It's all about winning. We are just concentrating on ourselves, and making sure we get our job done."
The Australia squad arrived in Cardiff from London on Wednesday to continue preparations for what will be their first fixture since completing a Rugby Championship campaign when New Zealand left all challengers floundering.
Australia were best of the rest, finishing as runners-up, but a 17-point gap between themselves and the All Blacks told its own emphatic story.
"They (Australia) have had their injuries, but they have got a lot of talent across the board," Webb added.
"We know how dangerous they are. Some of the individuals they've got in their team, they can create stuff from wherever on the field."
Wales' interim head coach Rob Howley - he is at the helm this season while Gatland concentrates on British and Irish Lions business ahead of next summer's New Zealand tour - will name his starting line-up on Thursday.
Three Test Lions with 230 Wales caps between them - skipper Sam Warburton, lock Alun Wyn Jones and number eight Taulupe Faletau - will miss the Wallabies encounter.
Warburton looks set to begin his comeback from injury for Cardiff Blues against Treviso in Italy on Friday, while Faletau remains sidelined by a knee problem and Jones withdrew from selection following the death of his father.
Jenkins is favourite to captain Wales this weekend with Warburton absent - he has done the job on five previous occasions - with Justin Tipuric featuring at openside flanker in a back-row that could also include Dan Lydiate and Ross Moriarty.
Luke Charteris and Bradley Davies are the likely second-row pairing, and Leigh Halfpenny is expected to be at full-back rather than on the wing if Liam Williams is ruled out by injury.
Halfpenny, who has scored more than 500 points for Wales during a 62-cap international career, has not played Test rugby since September last year after suffering a serious knee injury during Wales' final 2015 World Cup warm-up game against Italy.

Jeff Steinmann: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the show. Today, we're talking to Melissa Williams. Melissa is the owner of LongTale Publishing. She's a speaker and an author of children's books. And she has structured that business in a way that allows her to live life on her own terms. And the most important thing to her is literacy. And she's had the time because of that business to found an organization called 3zero which is a literacy group that helps teach people how to read. And Melissa, thank you for joining us.
Melissa Williams: Thank you for having me.
Jeff: I'm so glad to have you here. I love talking to people such as yourself who have done such awesome things, who've built a life that allows them to do something that they love and that they're passionate about. And what people don't get is we don't build lifestyle businesses so that we can lay on the beach. We build lifestyle businesses so that we can do things that we care about. Both in our business and in other ventures, such as your not-for-profit.
Melissa: Yes, and it's funny that you mentioned the beach. Because one of my series is actually about a professional surfing box shell turtle which forces me to go research in places like Hawaii and Australia.
Jeff: What a rough job. What a rough job.
Melissa: I know.
Jeff: That's so cool. I have to share this really funny story. A friend of mine and I are getting involved in the secret shopper thing.
Melissa: Oh.
Jeff: So, basically what this means is we're involved in this organization. And they pay for us to go to places and buy things or do things, and then report back on the service that we got and things. So, one of these instance is for a steak house. And they said that – they laid out the requirements. And they very specifically said, "You must order steak. You must go to the bar and order a drink." And I'm like, "Wow. Those are some really tough requirements."
Melissa: Right. Oh my gosh, I don't know if I can do this.
Jeff: Yeah, exactly. So just like you having to go to the beach to research these turtles. That's so cool.
Melissa: Yeah.
Jeff: Yeah. Well, tell us a little bit about your business and your publishing company.
Melissa: All right. Well, LongTale Publishing, I started back in 2007. And the reason for starting our business kind of came about from researching the publishing industry. And researching what writers go through when it comes to either submitting their work to a big publisher and through an agent and what the industry is all about.
And by going to many of these conferences, I found the industry very fascinating and a little bit intimidating, honestly. And it's just – I am my father's daughter. That's for sure, when it comes to business. And he raised me with an entrepreneurial spirit. So I never really saw myself being permanently in a job where others decided what I do. It just doesn't go with my personality style. I'm sure my parents could have told you that from when I was five years old.
So, I've always been a free thinker. Always creative. Wanting to create. And a visionary. And I feel that people that build businesses, they envision the success of the business. They envision what is going to happen. So for me, I mean, the publishing world is kind of like the music industry. You submit yourself for years and years and years. And it's almost a waste of time to me. When you have something tangible that for me, getting my books into the hands of kids, having these messages of acceptance in diversity, that my Iggy the Iguana series and Turtle Town series, they all represent.
Due to my other background which is Psychology in Education, I wanted to get all of the stuff into the hands of kids. And the best way to do it was for me to build it from scratch. So, I started LongTale Publishing in '07. And I'd already been writing for my whole life. I mean, that was just a passion of mine. Kind of a hobby, whatever you want to call it. And I just wanted to see where I could go with it. And if this was really meant to be a business. So, I was still in the counseling world doing counseling. I finished a master's degree in Professional Counseling, actually. And I was doing some work inside the schools on the side with the first book that my company ended up publishing. And that was the Iggy the Iguana.
And again, another passion of mine is public speaking. I love getting to be in front of people and teach them and share with them. And that was another goal. I mean, my whole life, I feel – even when I was a teenager, I would go to conferences and just watch authors talk about their books. And I would look at that. I'm like, "That is going to be me one day." I want to share something with others.
So, I built all of this so that I can end up doing that. And I guess the signs were there because I started speaking in the schools and through a recommendation, one school visit in Houston ISD one afternoon turned into 20 inquiries the next week. So word of mouth, I mean, it was one of those wildfire situations. I had no idea that this was even going to happen. And then, recommendation after recommendation. And then, here we are today. Five books later, stuffed animals, creative writing workshops, creative writing summer camps, helping other authors publish, starting a literacy non-profit. I mean, the list goes on. Public speaking at conferences. And it's been since 2007, so on a fairly short amount of time.
Jeff: Yeah. Definitely. That's so cool. Does your company – does LongTale Publishing publish for other people, or do you just teach people how to publish or you do both?
Melissa: What we're doing right now, just because I was spending so much time getting my books out there, I do a lot of consulting with other authors. And act as kind of a middle man. I guide them in the direction on what organizations and other print businesses, distribution channels to use, if they want to do this kind of the same way I did and do it on their own. How to query publishers. How to go through that process as well. I am working on a project right now with one author where I will end up bringing on a few new authors into LongTale Publishing. It's a slow but sure process, and I've done that intentionally.
Jeff: Yeah, you got to bring the right people on, right?
Melissa: Yeah. I mean, it's like that with – it doesn't matter how small your publishing company is. You want all of the work that you represent to kind of be a little – it needs to be similar. It needs to have a theme so all of my books are about acceptance and diversity.
And I use animal characters to represent the diversity among people. I mean, it's a very fun concept because kids love animals. So I'm not going to have books about creepy, horror situations. That's just not what my publishing company produces. So I have to be picky. And that's just pretty normal across the board.

But another piece to all of this, and this is probably another reason why I haven't worked with that many adults that write children's books yet, is because READ3Zero, we have a short story contest for kids in the 3rd through 12th grade to submit short stories, poetry and art work. And we produce a 50-story anthology in hard back every year. LongTale Publishing produces the book. READ3Zero funds the project. And that's kind of been this other thing that I'm doing on the side but through a literacy foundation.
Jeff: Oh, that's awesome. That's awesome. So, the thing that I'm hearing is that you're pretty passionate about entrepreneurship. You obviously love books and everything about books. You love children and psychology and the literacy aspect and how reading affects all of that. And that's just, your whole entire life has just wound up into that.
Melissa: And everything that I am passionate about is now my job.
Jeff: So is there a point in the day when you say, "Oh, I'm done working now."
Melissa: Never ever. And it's funny that we're having this conversation this month. Because this is probably one of my busiest months for some strange reason. I have not – and this is the other side of being an entrepreneur – I have not had a day off I believe in 32 days including Sundays.
So, if that's me travelling on the weekend to get to somewhere for work, setting up what I need to do, or if it's making a public appearance at a charity event, something work related has happened every single day for over a month for me. And it gets a little stressful, I have to admit, because I'm lacking sleep sometimes.
But I can't complain because on April 3rd, I'm taking a research trip to Australia for an entire month for the third book in the Turtle Town series which is again, going to be work. Because I'm going to be interviewing people, travelling, go, go, go. But hey, this is life. Like, I'm getting to live life right now. So I'm not going to complain about not even having Sunday off.
Jeff: That is awesome. That's awesome. And my life is similar. I don't think I'm – I don't have quite as crazy of a schedule as you do but the one thing that I've noticed is that, this has been – the first part of this year has been incredibly busy for me because I'm launching a new brand, I have this book coming out. Just tons of stuff going on. But it's actually – I'm so excited about everything that I'm doing that I've actually been working a lot.
And I've found that, I still – even though I love everything that I'm doing and I'm so excited and so passionate about it – I still have to make sure that I'm balancing that. And it helps to make sure that I'm doing the right things for myself. And how do you kind of work that aspect of it? How do you make sure that you're getting your needs met in terms of sleep and down time and all that kind of stuff?
Melissa: The first step in that, and now I feel like I'm going counseling on us right now, but it's awareness. It is the awareness of the fact that I may be stressed out. And I need to look into my calendar and figure out what day I am going to literally schedule and you're not going to allow meeting to happen right now. You're just going to say no during this section of this day, you just have to say no. And just planning and preparing for that.
Because you know your life is this way. So I can't be my best self for even the kids that I go and speak in front of, if I am extremely stressed. And it has affected my speaking style. I feel whenever I don't allow myself to have a little bit of downtime. So, awareness. It really is. It's just the awareness and next week finally, I have scheduled days where things just cannot be the way that they have been for the past 30, you know.
Jeff: Well, and the beautiful thing is when you have your own business and you structured it the way you have, you can just make those decisions and you can make that stuff happen.
Melissa: Yes.
Jeff: Now, do you work primarily out of your home, or do you have an office?
Melissa: I would say I do half and half. I love in the morning, that being my creative time. Because I'm writing a book right now, the second book in Turtle Town, which takes places across the Hawaiian Islands. I am finishing up that, that first draft of that book so that we can start going into the editing zone.
And in order to go there, I can't be checking my email first thing in the morning. I can't be getting on social media. All these things that are a part of my daily routine. I need to go straight into the creative zone, grab a cup of coffee, and work on Turtle Town for an hour. And then, I'll check email.
And then, I may go to the office. And the office where I work is combined with the few other businesses, so I don't have any alone time anymore. And my assistant, she works there, too. So we're working on all these different projects and following up on this and this and then dealing with things that I have to do as a business owner like payroll, and make sure that my taxes are taken cared of for that month, and things like that.
So there's all these different sides to what I do. So if I'm going to be creative, I need to be by myself. I need to work from home. I can't answer the phone. I can't let anybody tap into that world, or I'm just going to be wasting my own time.
Jeff: Yeah. Sure, sure. Well so, tell us a little bit about what did you do before this – before you started LongTale Publishing, and before you got into all of those?
Melissa: So, going back, right before LongTale Publishing, I was in graduate school for Professional Counseling and I was substitute teaching on the side. So, I did that and I learned a lot about my target audience during that time. Now through the program that I was in, I had to start working my practicum hours. So I then also worked at a psychiatric hospital. And counseled in the trauma units. And did that for a while.
And then moved on to – once I graduated with that degree, moved to Austin and started working at a small private counseling center. So that's what I did right before this. Before that, I was still – I mean, it would have been graduate school, college. Before all of this, I was a make-up artist and a voice-over actress for anime films.
So, I've had all different kinds of interesting careers but education has been a constant in my life. So conferences for the writing, for the publishing, for the psychology, for everything that I was specialized in, at that time, all those happening all at the same time. I don't even know how all of it even – how it all happened, now that I look back.
Jeff: Yeah, yeah. At what point did you say, "I'm done with all this. I want to start my own business that I can live life on my own terms, and do something that I really care about"?
Melissa: When the signs were there. So, for me, working at that private counseling center, I had to bring on my own clients. I still had to do all my supervision. There was a lot of stuff that I still had to do with the finalizing of that license. And it was very slow. It was a very slow process. But also, I think that my heart wasn't there. I've gotten into the counseling world with the purpose of wanting to write non-fiction about those types of situations later in the life. Not necessarily self-help books, but more of an inspirational type books for people. So, I went into counseling to do that.
But that wasn't my end goal. My end goal was not to be sitting across from one clients everyday. My goal is to be able to talk to more people. So, as I'm doing the school visits on the side after the book came out in 2008, I was able to counsel students through these characters' lives. And talk about empathy components and diversity and bullying and all these things that were inside the first book and it's just – it clicked. And I was good at it. And I felt like I was good at it. It was just so natural where there are things that I've done in the past where I was just like, this is not my passion. This is not really what I'm the best at doing. And I felt it was just a stepping stone.
Jeff: Okay. That's awesome. So, what was some of the challenges that you faced as you started to try to kind of get your own business still up and running?
Melissa: Well, for any business, your initial investment of funds is always going to be your first thing to get you off the ground. And I was lucky to have someone in my life invest in the starting of my business. So that was helpful for me.
Now, as I was going through the beginning stages of starting a business, I was going to class that's about different aspects of the business world and a big thing that just kept being told to all of us in these classes was to have a personal relationship with a very small bank. And I agree with that so much. You want to have someone with a financial net there for you in case you need it for loans to start business.
But they need to know what you're up to. They need to know your goals, your vision, your business plan, your future goals. So that when you're ready, they will help you out. So I mean, that's a big deal for anybody that wants to start a business that doesn't have a huge foundation of savings that they're going to put into it.

Jeff: Okay. Great, great tip. What were some mistakes that you made along the way?
Melissa: In the publishing industry, there are mini-industry standards. And you can't learn all of them just from going to conferences and hearing from people. There are so many that eventually you're going to make a few of those mistakes. And I would say, I was trying to save some money, and I was having either myself be responsible for certain things like deciding on the way my book cover was going to look. And not having the professionals in the industry really, really take care of things that I now have book professionals take care of that would require for me.
So, when you'll try – and this is what I've found, in industries where it's very creative. If you're trying to save money, you eventually are going to just be wasting that money when you try to fix things later. Because you want everything to stand next to a big publisher's product. So, I wouldn't call that a mistake though, because I just wasn't ready maybe during that time. So, it's just things – your industry, it's very specific, the mistakes that you can make in your industry, I feel.
Jeff: That's very, very true. When I got the first proof back of my book, I looked through it, and I was like, "Oh, God." So glad I got the proof because there was a couple of things in it, actually it was the spacing of the headings that was like, "This isn't right." And I couldn't put my finger on it. And I couldn't figure out what was not right until I held it up next to a couple of big published books. I'm like, "Oh, okay. Now, I see." And I was able to get those things adjusted.
So, it's so true, and in fact, one of my favorite books on publishing is Guy Kawasaki's book called APE: Author, Publisher, Entrepreneur. And he talks about – there's a whole chapter I think, on how to avoid that self published look. And a lot of really good stuff in there.
In fact, well, you probably know that there's a standards of what side of the book the even numbers are on, and what side of the odd numbers on, right? The right hand side is always odd. Something that you never, ever will think about. Unless you were actually researching the industry.
Melissa: Exactly. And I mean, whenever I'm doing consulting with authors, that do you want to go into the indie publishing, let's call it. The whole self publishing still has this negative connotation.
Jeff: Yeah, we got to hear a lot of those words.
Melissa: So many, I mean, let's just face it. Bad pieces of work out there.
Jeff: It kind of deserves the negative name that it has, yeah.
Melissa: But I tell people, it's like, "You're the author. But you're also the creator who has the vision but you can't be the story critiquer. The editor. The copy editor. The graphic designer. The illustrator. And publish the book, too. You can't do all of that because let's get real here. Let's pick the two things that you're the best at. Because scattering your skill over that whole board, it's going to be obvious that it was a self published book. So.
Jeff: Yes. Such great advice for anybody publishing a book. One of the things I always advice clients is, "You have got to spend some money." "You can't afford free." is one of the things that I actually say a lot.
Melissa: Yeah, I am not a believer in free work, honestly. I am involved in so many different networks where we all help each other out. Some person will refer you, and bring in business. All that. That's free work. But we all appreciate it. And what goes around, comes around. But literally free? No. Because that means I'm going to get free quality.
Jeff: Exactly. Exactly. Well then so, this is fascinating. We're talking about the whole – some of the ins and outs of the publishing industry. But these things that we're talking about, great lessons. But they're all learnable.
But what I truly think is the biggest challenge in publishing is marketing, right? I mean, that's the most important thing. There are people who market and sell a lot of really, really, shitty books. No questions about it. Which proves to me that it's all about the marketing. So now they don't sell as many additional books, but they sell a lot of them initially if they do the marketing well. So, how do you take these awesome books that you're creating, and how do you get the word out and get them in the hands of the children who want to read them?
Melissa: So, I'm doing something that is opposite I feel of what our society is so used to. Our society is very used to all the social media. And I do all that. I mean, that's for sure. All the social media, all the beam behind the computers, marketing and marketing in that way, I'm a believer, and people knowing who you are because they see your face. And they have shaken your hands. And they have been in a room and heard you on a microphone.
And that, I love. I love that so much more than all the computer stuff. Because as I guess, I'm still old school or something, who knows? But I know. It's great to make those connections. And it's those connections that have literally carried me in this business. Do I have to have all the other stuff? Well, yeah. Or I'm not going to be legit. I mean, you have to have all that stuff. But I don't rely on that. It's 50-50, literally.
And the same is true. It's all about who you know. It's all about the connections you've made. And that's just the way this world is. So, if you don't ever go out and make real connections, and real ones, not just meeting someone one time and giving them your business card. That just does not work. You need to make real connections.
Jeff: When I go to networking conferences, I've actually philosophized about networking with people and I break all the rules in that I might sit and have a 15-minute conversation with somebody. When the general rule is, well now, you should be moving on, just passing out those business cards. And I have no desire whatsoever, like a carpet bomb a roomful of people with business cards.
Melissa: Oh, me neither.
Jeff: And then expect that to do something. And you really got it going, you're really going in the right direction because you've got that. That old school – I call it the old school hustle.
Melissa: Ooh, yeah. Let's call it that.
Jeff: Yeah, and then you're combining that with social media and I think that is when it gets incredibly powerful.
Melissa: Right.
Jeff: Because those people there, they're like, "Oh, this is Melissa. She's really cool. I'm going to connect with her on Facebook." And then, they're seeing stuff from you on a regular basis and you just got the best of both worlds, and you got. That's the way it's going. That's the way it has to be these days.
Melissa: And I eventually had to branch out and it's again, I can't do all these myself anymore so I have a P.R. company and a publicist working for me on both of those things.
So, when I say social media, I mean, I have a Facebook page for every organization, every character, main character that I've created. Twitter for Little Miss Molly. Twitter for Turtle Town Books. Youtube channels. I have six websites. I mean, I'm definitely all over the internet.
And then, if you Google me, hundreds of pages will come up because so much time was spent into making sure that I was searchable when interviews happen, when articles were released just through over the years. So, I planted the seeds because I learned about the marketing. I didn't learn about it after the fact. I mean, I continue to learn. But I do love the research beforehand. Just to be prepared.
I remember I went to a social media workshop, there are 20 of us in this thing and the publicist who had given it at the time, she was like, "I want to tell all of you to go home and get your name on Twitter. Twitter in six months is going to blow up and everyone who is famous will have one." And we're like, "Twitter? What's Twitter?" This was back in 2009. Okay, fine. We go to Twitter, this website is barely existent, by my name, like clockwork. Six months later, everyone who was famous or in the social scene, knew about Twitter. And then a year later, everybody's on Twitter. This is insane.

So, but then, going back to the P.R. company, they are tweeting for me everyday on Hoot tweets and HootSuite. And they are doing all of my social media and then they're setting up interviews because they have connections with the right people, too, so.
Jeff: Yeah, that's awesome. So you've had a good experience with your P.R. company?
Melissa: Absolutely, yes. Medley is the name. They're a Houston-based P.R. company. And the great thing for me is I'm their only author. I used to be with a P.R. company back when I first started and all they did were authors. Which doesn't help an author. You're like in a friction with all their other clients, for time and for attention. Because after a while, the news doesn't want to talk about authors every single day. So it's very helpful to be with someone that represents all different types of people and organizations.
Jeff: Very cool. Now, you mentioned that you do media interviews. Can you talk a little bit about how you've done that? How you've gotten yourself in front of the media? And how that's working for you?
Melissa: So, the way – my publicist is actually small, the way that she does that, is first of all, she's got all the connections because she's been in the industry for a while. But what you do is you pitch to them, a story that could be interesting to viewers at home from the news.
So if for me, there's going to be a lot of different topics that I could talk about. Like for instance today, I ended up talking about ways this spring break to get your teams to unplug from their electronics, basically. And went into the literacy and the brain storming notebooks and the being aware of your surroundings and living your life and experiencing things that you can remember instead of just being behind the screen. So the story was pitched because this is something of interest to everyone right now. And I'm knowledgeable enough to actually talk about it.
So, that worked for me and I was able to talk a little bit about READ3Zero, things like that. So, it's really going to be making sure that you're pitching things that are usable and maybe you do have a big event coming up and with me having a non-profit. Everybody's interested in non-profits and literacy and opportunities for kids to shine. I mean, that's just something that's natural for all of us to be positive and happy about.
So, by having something like that behind me has also helped me. I'm not just a business person. I'm actually – my passion, I'm actually putting it into the community, too. So of course, the news is going to be a little bit more receptive to that as opposed to me just knocking at their door, "Let me talk to you about my business." I never talk to them about my business unless it gets brought up in the conversation.
So, there's a smart way to address these things. And you, just like a writer, we have to put ourselves in the shoes of our audience. So for a person that wants to be on the news, you need to now put yourselves in the shoes of those news anchors and that news station. What do they want? They want viewers. They want viewers who say, "Oh, I love what this station puts up all the time. It's so relevant to what's happening today. I'm going to keep watching this station only." So, just thinking outside the box.
Jeff: Yeah, and I think that's the biggest mistake that folks make, not only with pitching the media but with just their marketing in general, because they're thinking way too much about themselves and way too little about the other person who's receiving the information.
Melissa: Oh, yes.
Jeff: So, one other question. We talked a little bit about this before when we started the interview. And you've structured this life around something that you'd love. You do it on your own terms. How does that affect your personal life?
Melissa: So, yeah, there's two side to that. I have to say, it makes my personal life trickle in to my business life. And it makes it really exciting because so many of the people that I'm good friends with are in really industries, and that's why we all click. And now, we all have built friendships, and we all really respect what each other are doing. And if my friend who is a professional artist, if I have an opportunity to send work their way, they're the first person that I want to send work to. Because I love them. But I get to have fun conversations with people who are like-minded.
So, being in this industry, I've been able to meet so many people that I really, really enjoy, and build great friendships with. But then, there's the other side. And we all get each other because we all are this way but it's go, go, go, go, go. You have a day where you feel absolutely just overwhelmed and crazy because there's so much going on. And then, for me, I'm not married and I don't have kids. And people ask sometimes, "How do you do all these things that you do in such a short amount of time?" I tell them, I'm like, "Well, I don't have – I'm not putting focus into other parts of my life right now."
And that's my decision. I am so fulfilled right now at this point in my life to be doing it this way. I don't see myself being able to do a few of the things that I do if I needed to devote more time to someone else that doesn't have to do with my business. But that's my decision. And I've made that decision for myself.
I have to remind people that think, "Oh, but don't you want to do this?" I'm like, "No. That's – maybe eventually. I don't know." I mean, I don't even know if I will have kids. I spend so much time with kids. And I love them so much, I'm so passionate about changing the wave of the future, this is my thing right now. That I don't know if I'm going to be interested later to have kids. I'm at a time in my life where I'm going to have to make these decisions.
So, it's just life. Our lives are beautiful. They've been handed to us in a way, and we get to mold them into what we've envisioned and then you also remain a little bit of flexible in case there's something else that's thrown your way. But yeah, it's hard to give a decent amount of time to just one person, let's just say that.
Jeff: Yeah, because you're just so focused on something that you love. And again, it's on your terms. That's so cool. What's the biggest piece of advice before we wrap up that you would give to somebody who wants to do this for themselves?
Melissa: I would say, prepare yourselves. Don't go into anything blindly. So, for me I had mentors. I sought out people who were either authors or entrepreneurs and had conversations with them. I want to know the good, bad and the ugly. And I don't want to feel naïve to things.
So, preparing yourself for the industry that you're really, really passionate about. And if that means going to conferences – I mean, here in Houston, we have the University of Houston's small business center and they're brilliant. Because they have all of these classes that focus specifically on what entrepreneurs and business people need to know. To not make mistakes with taxes, with the government, with running your business into the ground. I mean, they say, most businesses fail within the first three to five years because people just don't know how to plan their financial situation around the business. So, prepare yourself.
Jeff: Sure. Of all the people that I've talked to, you're more on the kind of methodical, plan it out, get all the information upfront first kind of a side. Because a lot of people take that – and I don't think there's a right or wrong approach. And I'm really glad that you've given us this perspective. Because for some people, this is more right. But you've done – it seems like you've done much more upfront preparing and thinking things through and I think that's awesome and that's been probably a huge key to your success.
Melissa: Yes, thank you. It has been helpful to do it that way, I feel. And I would again, recommend it to anybody to think before you move. I mean, don't let this planning process hold you back to not ever start. Let them merge together, so.
Jeff: Sure. Well, before we go, Melissa, can you tell us where are listeners can go to get more information about you and your not-for-profit? And if they want to do something or help out your not-for-profit, how might they do that?
Melissa: Yes, that would be wonderful. So, actually, READ3Zero, we are doing our big fund-raiser campaign right now. And it's on the Facebook page, which is just facebook.com/read3zero and what we're doing is, we're raising money through this campaign. It's really easy to donate online to send our published authors that we publish every year into other entitled ones schools and they get to do author visits with me, and read their story. And I interview them in front of all these kids. And they become public speakers with me.
And then, we give out free I Write anthologies to those students that got to participate in the school visit. So this is kids inspiring other kids which I just – I love. And it gives them an opportunity to be leaders in their community, too. So, that's the Facebook page for READ3zero.
And then of course, we have our website which is read3zero.org. So, that would be the literacy foundation. And then, the easiest way to connect with me – and I mean, like I said, I probably have 15 different websites and social media, tweets – would be to go straight to my author website because that is going to link to all the other websites, social media, everything. And that's going to be melissamwilliamsauthor.com.
Jeff: Melissamwilliamsauthor.com. We'll link all of this up below the show. And what's the most recent book that you've published?
Melissa: The most recent was the Little Miss Molly picture book, which has actually been my first picture book because I've been very heavy-focused on the older readers and chapter books for upper elementary. But Little Miss Molly is for the three- to six-year old, three- to eight-year old reader, it's a super girly picture book about this little lizard who is obsessed with the color pink and she wants to be a princess. So the girls love these types of stories that are really girly.
Jeff: That sounds like a blast. So, we'll put all those below. If you want more information about Melissa, check out read3zero.org, go to her Facebook page for read3zero which is facebook.com/read3zero. Really interesting, really easy to donate to her project about kids inspiring kids.
You can also go to her author page at melissamwilliamsauthor.com and check out her newest book, Little Miss Molly picture book which is a girly pink picture book, and the little girls will love it, if you've got one of those in your life.
Melissa, thank you so much for being with us today. I really appreciate it. I've had a blast talking to you. And I had a blast getting your perspective on this because you're bringing a little bit different perspective to this and I love it. That's what I want is this many perspective as is possible. So thank you so much for your time. I wish you the best of luck with everything. And stay in touch and let me know how things are going with you.
Melissa: Yes, that would be great. Thank you so much for having me. I enjoyed it as well.
Jeff: Thanks, Melissa.

Review by westfargolibrary
Both Twilight fans and philosophy students are bound to enjoy this entertaining and thoughtful read. Some thought-provoking questions: Are vegetarian vampires eating ethically? Is Bella a feminist? How does Stephenie Meyer's Mormonism fit into the Twilight saga? Twilight and Philosophy does an excellent job of applying complex philosophical concepts to the characters and story lines found in Twilight.
Review by seldombites
This book was very difficult to read - not due to the writing style, but the reasoning. Many of their arguments were made in convoluted, over-complicated ways when they could have been stated simply and succinctly. There was also a fair bit of repetition between chapters. I was left with the impression that the authors were trying to stretch a short essay into a full book so as to make some money. If you really want to read this book, try to locate a lend-able copy. Don't spend your own dollars on it.

Unanswered: Adding a NEW Record Using a Form
Hi all!
I have a little dilemma here.
I have a form called frm_Search that the user can use a Combo Box to select the Company they are looking to get information about.
If the company does not exist I created another form called frm_AddCompany.
That form has a Record source of tbl_Company.
I need to make a button with an event procedure that will add a NEW Record to the tbl_Company and then bring me back to frm_Search so that User can now select the newly created Company.
My problem is, my current code will not ADD a new record but will only edit the first record in the table.
Any help is much appreciated!

Found out the Command I need.
I needed it to go to the last record (so when I close the form it adds the correct records)
I set an Open Event Procedure that simply said:
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
That fixed it.

British Prime Minister David Cameron is rethinking the government's programme of deep defence cuts in the light of the armed forces' involvement in the Libya conflict, a report said Friday.
Cameron is "actively engaged" in a reassessment of Britain's military capabilities, the Daily Telegraph reported, citing government sources.
The report said that plans to reduce the number of Royal Air Force Tornado fighter jets and scrap surveillance planes may be reversed. Both are playing a key role in patrolling the no-fly zone over Libya.
As part of a programme of wider public spending cuts, Cameron's government is trying to fill a £38 billion (43 billion euro, $62 billion) hole in the defence budget it inherited from the previous Labour government.
Among other measures in the Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR), Britain's armed forces will be reduced by 17,000 personnel by 2015 and an aircraft carrier and the Harrier jets that fly from it will be scrapped.
A Ministry of Defence spokeswoman denied claims in the reports that the government was performing a "climbdown" on some of the cuts.
She said "significant inroads" had been made into the funding black hole by putting the defence cuts into action and the government would continue to implement them.
"The government sought to tackle a £38 billion defence shortfall and an equipment programme that was overcommitted and unsustainable after 13 years without a Strategic Defence Review," the spokewoman said.
"Implementing difficult SDSR decisions has made significant inroads into the £38 billion blackhole."

Oslo is the most expensive city in the world, ahead of Zurich and Tokyo, but the well-paid residents of the Swiss financial hub enjoy the greatest purchasing power, according to a study released on Friday.
The annual survey of 72 cities by Swiss bank UBS found its own hometown had the world's highest average wages and the biggest purchasing power.
Montreal was the 16th most expensive, and Toronto was No. 31.
The study examined the price of a basket of 122 goods and services, adjusted for currency fluctuations. The cost of living index was calculated by dividing the price of goods by the weighted net hourly wage in 15 sectors.
"In Tokyo it takes nine minutes of work to earn enough to buy a Big Mac, while in Nairobi it takes 84 minutes," it said.
Zurich residents must work 13 minutes for the hamburger, but other goods were relatively cheaper than in Tokyo, putting the Swiss city top of the purchasing power index.
"Workers in Zurich can buy an iPhone after 22 hours work; in Manila, by contrast, it takes around 20 times longer," UBS said.
Workers had to toil 42 minutes in Istanbul and 29 minutes in Shanghai for a Big Mac, while in New York and Hong Kong just 10 minutes were required.
The cheapest places to live were Delhi and Mumbai. New York was the sixth most expensive, Moscow came in at No. 40 and Shanghai at 49.
The survey also looked at working hours and found the shortest were in Paris, Lyon and Copenhagen. Workers in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America toil the longest, at over 2,000 hours per year, it found.
The top 10 most expensive cities (New York = 100):
1. Oslo 116
2. Zurich 110.1
3. Tokyo 108.9
4. Geneva 106.5
5. Copenhagen 100.9
6. New York 100
7. Luxembourg 94.4
8. Stockholm 91.9
9. Caracas 91.0
10. London 87.3
16. Montreal 81.8
31. Toronto 74.3

Newton Downs Farm
Following planning approval in July 2016, Good Energy has built a 5MW solar farm at Newton Downs Farm near Newton Ferrers in Devon.
The main construction work took place between Autumn 2016 and late January 2017. Good Energy worked with UK-based installers Solar Century to build the solar farm.
The solar farm will generate enough renewable electricity to power approximately 1,400 average homes.
Good Energy has an agreement in principle with Yealm Community Energy (YCE), a local community benefit society, giving the community the right to buy the completed solar farm.
Once in community ownership, the project would generate funding for YCE's work to tackle fuel poverty and reduce energy bills in the local area as well as delivering a return for local investors.
If the sale doesn't go ahead, the project will still provide an annual community fund of at least £10,000 per year, helping to support a wide range of community-led projects.
Project key facts
Installed capacity: 5MW solar power
Annual renewable electricity output: 5,500MWh* (projected)
Homes powered: 1,400**
Status: Operational
*Based on an installed capacity of 5MW and estimated solar resource and photovoltaic potential for the site location (Source: EC Joint Research Centre, Institute for Energy and Transport)
**Based on average annual household electricity consumption for 2015 of 3,938kWh (Source: DECC, Energy Consumption in the UK, 2016)
