Chile Power Market Outlook to 2030, Update 2017 – Market Trends, Regulations, and Competitive Landscape
Chile has one of the most robust and open economies in South America. Its economy is market-oriented and characterized by good foreign trade and established financial institutions. It is an associate member of the Common Market of Southern Cone (Mercado Común del Sur (Mercosur)) and a member of the Asia-Pacific Economic Corporation. It also became a member of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in May 2010.
Chile has a market-oriented economy, with exports accounting for one-third of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The mining and export of copper accounts for approximately three-quarters of its total exports and Chile's economy has the strongest sovereign bond rating in South America. However, its strong market orientation meant that its economy was more seriously affected by the 2009 financial crisis than other countries. Between 2000 and 2008, GDP growth averaged 4.8% annually, whereas in 2009, a negative rate of 1% was recorded. The economy rebounded, however, in 2010, with an average annual rate of 3.9% recorded between 2010 and 2016. Power consumption mirrored the GDP growth rate, increasing at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4%, between 2000 and 2016, mostly from the industrial and residential sectors.
Thermal power, including gas, coal, and oil technology, accounted for 58.5% of Chile's installed capacity in 2016. Of the thermal power technologies, coal contributed the highest share, with 23.6%, followed by gas at 21.8%, and oil at 13.1%. Hydropower accounted for 30%. Renewable power, including onshore wind, biopower, and solar power, contributed the remaining 11.5%.
Renewable power is expected to show the highest growth trajectory between 2016 and 2030, increasing at a CAGR of 17.3%. Hydropower is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.9%, while thermal power is expected to grow at a CAGR of 1.6%. The government's desire to diversify the power mix and Chile's large untapped renewable power generation potential will drive the growth of renewable power.

Random techno-babble
Linux stuff
I have a fairly large amount of data (source code, DB dumps, docs etc.) that I keep on either my workstations or a file servers. I use software RAID on both systems, either mirroring (RAID1) or stripes+parity (RAID5), and that obviously saves me from fatal disk errors. But this doesn't prevent me from losing data when I'm a total moron, or some application goes bad.

Spring time is leather weather time for me. Thinking of the essential I can't live without, there is absolutely no doubt. It is the leather jacket. I like to wear it in spring, but honestly, it's an all-year essential.
Today I would like to present you my newest additions. It is this leather jacket from Nü Denmark and this super cool t-shirt from the same brand. Black is the new black. I am obsessed. These studded cowboy boots from Floris van Bommel are new too. I think they fit perfectly with this elevated rock style look. xoxo Georgina Moreno

No. It has nothing to do with Donald Trump.
Coming across Bruce Springsteen on a broken down motorcycle on the side of the road could probably be a lyric from one of his songs, but it really happened for a group of guys from New Jersey.
A group from the Freehold American Legion was riding after a Veterans Day event Friday when Dan Barkalow says he saw a stranded motorcyclist up ahead near Allaire State Park in Wall Township.
"Bikers gotta stick together," Barkalow said. "I stopped to see if he needed help, and it was Bruce."
Barkalow says they tried to help get his bike running, but when they couldn't, Springsteen — wearing a brown riding jacket and a red handkerchief — hopped on the back of Ryan Bailey's bike and they headed to a local bar.

Snapshots from Team Rynkeby's trip to Paris 2019 - new snapshots every day.
TR Press UK - 16-08-2017
The application deadline is getting closer: Would you like to be part of Team Rynkeby?
If you would like to be part of Team Rynkeby next year, it will soon be your last chance to register your application. The charity cycling team's deadline for application is on 20 August 2017.
Team Rynkeby is just getting started on a new season dedicated to the good cause. The first big project will be recruiting the cyclists who will don our yellow cycling jerseys in 2018 and cycle to Paris.
Since the latest Tour de Paris, Team Rynkeby has expanded from 44 to 48 local teams, and thereby the charity cycling team now has made room for 1,900 cyclists – the highest number ever.
Team Rynkeby Foundation CEO Carl Erik Dalbøge explains:
"We're experiencing a nice uptick in interest across Scandinavia and have therefore created four new teams in those countries where the applicant increase is greatest: two in Sweden, one in Norway and one in Finland. So now it's primarily about filling the local teams with committed team players," says Carl Erik Dalbøge.
If you would like to be part of Team Rynkeby in the upcoming year, then register your application on the Team Rynkeby website by 20 August 2017 at the latest.
"The teams will be finalised locally, and here the team captains go first and foremost for applicants who show that they can contribute to the team in terms of cycling, fund-raising and socially. We are seeking to establish 48 teams of people who together will create the framework for a fantastic physical experience while raising a great deal of money for sick children," says Carl Erik Dalbøge.
Teams will be finalised in September
All applicants will receive a response to their application on 5 September 2017, and the teams will be finalised by the end of September.
"We know in advance that we won't be able to accommodate all applicants in all areas – but in some areas we can easily accommodate more participants. So if you have any interest in becoming a member of Team Rynkeby, I would like to encourage you to write an application. You do not have to commit until the first instalment is paid," says Carl Erik Dalbøge.
Team Rynkeby's trip to Paris will be held next year from 30 June to 7 July 2018.
The price for cyclists is DKK 18,500 – which includes bicycle, cycling clothes, helmets and hotels. Service volunteers pay DKK 3,600 to take part.

Tax - POSTED: 2011/04/05 16:17
With Tax Day approaching, wealthy Americans might want to take extra care with their returns.
Government statistics show the IRS followed through in a big way last year on its pledge to aggressively audit wealthy taxpayers, ratcheting up enforcement for individuals making over $500,000 a year.
Individual audits were up overall in fiscal year 2010 by about 10 percent -- or 1.11 percent of the total number of returns, according to the most recent IRS enforcement report. But the extra audits were stacked at the top of the income scale, where IRS agents no doubt see a bigger potential trove of unpaid tax dollars.
For people making $10 million and up, the swath of those audited rose from 10.6 percent to 18.4 percent. That rate rose from 7.5 percent to 11.6 percent, for those making between $5 million and $10 million. Even those making $500,000 and up got audited more frequently last year, compared with a year prior.

Every patient is eager to see what their new dentures (or false teeth) look like, and for good reason. But how can you judge if it's really going to be grand?
Coco Chanel, the world-renowned fashion designer, once said that if you notice a lady's clothes, she's poorly dressed; if you notice the lady instead, she's impeccably dressed. That same philosophy can help prosthodontics wearers to assess for themselves what looks right.
During the wax try-in appointment, when you're "fine-tuning" your replacement teeth, you may be tempted to peer at them while holding them in your hands, or evaluate what you see in the mirror through bifocals. While this "view" will give you an idea of the construction of your new denture, it's not how other people will see it.
Your prosthodontist can create a rugged or delicate, masculine or feminine, assertive or passive, youthful or mature look. Youthfulness can be achieved by a curved smile line, showing the two front teeth more than those on each side, and having a darker translucent edge on those front teeth. False teeth can be brought down where they are more visible and placed further forward to plump out a thin upper lip. If teeth are arranged evenly in a flat line, it makes a person look older.
Any of these qualities can be realized in a new denture, but they won't show while it is in your hand. A good denturist invests time and all his care to make your denture look best, in your mouth, where it belongs. Look at your dentures in the mirror from a conversational distance, while you talk or smile. And if your friends don't notice it, your prosthodontist has done a good job.
Are you a denture wearer who's afraid to be seen in public because your dentures are unattractive? Do you find yourself eating alone because you can't eat foods your friends eat? Do you carry your false teeth in your pocket? Denture wearers, without knowing it, can become dental "shut-ins." They begin, subtly, to reorient their lifestyles around ill-fitting or loose dentures. When dentures don't look or function properly, some people withdraw from their social lives and suffer depression and diminished self-esteem. Some even become recluses.
One denturist had a patient, a truck driver, who couldn't eat properly with his cheap dentures. At truck stops, he would take his food back to his truck and eat alone. He gave up his only social activity on the road, swapping stories with other drivers over a meal. For two years, he was a prisoner in his own truck. Many people can reverse a situation like this though. When prosthodontics look and feel right, denture problems become a thing of the past and the wearer's whole mental outlook can brighten. Eating gives pleasure and a feeling of security learned from early feeding experiences. It's an important part of most social occasions. When a person controls the quality and quantity of his food, he's able to achieve this sense of security and a feeling of self-esteem.
There's no need to feel unattractive or live in fear of a false teeth faux pas in the company of friends and family. A prosthodontist can help you regain function, comfort, and a natural appearance by denture care and repair, or by just replacing or refitting them. Or, it might just mean using better dentures adhesive. Well-fitting prosthodontics are a small sort of miracle, but one that works wonders for your self-esteem. Don't be a shut-in. Call your dentist, and start smiling again.

SYDNEY — One of the first owners of the new Tesla Powerwall 2 home battery has used a formula to calculate that he will have a $0 electricity bill by using the battery.
The Powerwall 2 is the latest generation battery released March in Australia, which at the time prompted Atlassian's Mike Cannon-Brookes to place a highly publicised bet with Tesla founder Elon Musk to solve South Australia's blackout woes.
Brendan and Josephine Fahey's house, in the northern Melbourne neighbourhood of Coburg, is the first to have the Powerwall 2 system installed in the city. It's understood their case is one of the first deployments globally as well.
Brendan Fahey bought the new 14kWh battery to pair with his existing solar panels after carefully doing the sums to work out he could have a zero power bill.
"I did some calculations with Powerwall 2 by writing a little formula based on my solar production and electricity usage for each day from 1st December 2016. Starting with a 14kWh home battery I subtracted and added on the gains and losses as I went through the six months up until a few weeks ago," he said.
"At no point in my calculations did the 14kWh battery run out. If I had owned Powerwall 2 during that time I would have had no electricity bill."
The Tesla website indicates a price of $8,750 for a Powerwall 2 and "supporting hardware" plus installation labour costing from $1,150 to $2,900.
There have been criticisms of the overall cost of the Powerwall 2, with SolarQuotes chief Finn Peacock saying in March that Tesla's new battery was already "beaten even before the first deliveries".
"A relatively unknown Australian company, Ampetus Energy, have released a 3kWh 'Super Lithium' battery retailing for $2,300," Peacock told energy industry publication One Step Off The Grid.
"This is available to ship right now and beats Tesla with a cost-per-warranted-kWh of $0.19. This is mainly due to their 15 year warranty, which is also the best in the industry."
Traditionally homeowners used the electricity generated from solar panels in real-time as it was provided or, if excess was harvested, could sell it back to the general grid. But with the feed-in payment rates fluctuating according to market forces and government regulations, and battery technology fast improving, storing the excess energy is starting to become an alternative.
Last September, Business Insider reported a Gold Coast man that installed six 6.4kWh batteries of Tesla's previous Powerwall 1 model to become completely self-sufficient.
Savings in the early days of the Powerwall were reportedly nowhere near enough to offset the cost of equipment and installation. In 2015, Lifehacker Australia calculated that with a maximum saving of $1.06 a day for a Sydney residence that charged its battery during off-peak hours, the system needs to be used for 25 years to reach break-even.
Fahey said that for him the financial savings wasn't the only motivation in buying a very expensive battery.
"My motivation is to get my electricity bill as close to $0 as possible, and for the good of the environment," he said, adding that blackout contingencies can be planned for in real time with the Tesla app.

Review snapshot: Garbage start out not being garbage... and then slowly but surely they become absolute garbage. Unfortunate.
The CLUAS Verdict? 5 out of 10
Full Review: Garbage fairly well leapt out of the blocks in the mid 90s. They seemed perfectly formed. Powered by Butch Vig (famed producer of Nirvana's Nevermind and other luminaries like Sonic Youth) and fronted by Shirley Manson, a Scottish dervish whose look was more suited to the shoegazer bands of the late 80s, Garbage received massive support from MTV. Now 4 albums and 12 years later, the band have decided to consolidate with a Best Of collection. Or is it an epitaph to what has become a faltering career?
Absolute Garbage shoots its bolt early on. Vow, Queer, I'm Only Happy When It Rains were all sleek, poppy hits garnered from their eponymous, and best, debut album. Shining brightest of all is Stupid Girl, a fab tune with a Claytonesque bassline and a sexy lyric. Manson's snarling delivery was reminiscent of Chrissie Hynde.
But it's all downhill from there. Garbage have, essentially, remade their debut with ever decreasing rewards. I Think I'm Paranoid was a minor hit. Their Bond theme, The World Is Not Enough, was pretty much unmemorable (as was the movie) - I challenge you to hum the tune. Probably the best of their latter period songs, Androgyny, has been bizarrely omitted from this collection. By the end of the album's generous 18 tunes, one has to desperately resist hitting the forward button.
My advice? Pick up their debut album from a bargain bin. It's an interesting document of 90s alternative pop.

A little boy was walking along a beach which was strewn with hundreds, if not thousands, of starfish. As he walked along, he was picking up the stranded starfish and putting each one he picked up gently back into the water.It really seems to me that it's the little actions that really help. Stories and ballads focus on big deeds but it's the little methods of help that really make up history.
A man came walking along the beach in the opposite direction and saw what the boy was doing. "There's no point to doing that," he told the boy. "There are thousands of starfish here. You can't save them all. You can't even make any real difference."
The boy stooped to pick up another starfish. He held it up, looked the man right in the eye, and responded:
"It makes a difference to this one."
It makes a difference to _this_ one

You guys, I think I've figured out a good camera setup to take full length photos! Which means… I can take outfit photos! And do outfit posts! YAY!
I'm very excited about this, if you can't tell. It means I can start a new series now, with outfit of the week posts, and Pinterest/Instagram outfits recreated posts, and other styling posts….
And I'm kicking the series of with a little work wear inspiration post. 3 outfits that you – well, I – can wear to the office. Now, these are outfits I can get away with at the place I work at, which is honestly very casual. As in, when I'm wearing heels and a blazer people are like "Wow you look fancy today". So most days I wear sneakers, jeans and a t-shirt or sweater or something. But I also like to dress up sometimes, so I decided with this post to keep things a little more dressy, although still all outfits I would actually wear to the office or have already worn.
Let's have a look, shall we?
Outfit One
Alright, outfit 1 is actually the outfit that inspired me to do this post. I wore this to work a few weeks ago and felt so so happy in this outfit. It is fancy because of the blazer and heeled booties, but the blue jeans dress it down a lot. This would also look so cute with some sneakers if you want to go super casual, and with a silky lace-y camisole you can dress it up as well.
Outfit Two
Outfit number two had to be one with sneakers, because as I've mentioned before I wear them to work. To dress it up little bit I went for my faaaave cashmere sweater (still very much needed these days here in the Netherlands) and these black cotton trousers. I don't actually wear these a whole lot as I always forget I have them, but I actually love this combination. Note to self: wear this when the weather's still cold enough.
Outfit Three
This outfit is one I am hoping to be able to wear soon, especially with the shoes. I love blouses but I don't wear them enough because I don't actually have a whole lot I love. This leopard print pyjama style one is so pretty though, classy enough to wear to work but also very fun. I love pairing it with black jeans, just to keep it simple, and you can never go wrong with a pair of (black) loafers in the spring time.
Outfit Four
I couldn't help myself, I had to throw in a super fancy outfit with my Dune London heels. I just love them so much and I plan on wearing them to work one day, just as soon as my feet won't freeze off. I went for an all black look with my Mango turtleneck tee and these wide leg trousers that I love but find so hard to pair. I feel like they work with the heels and simple top though, and if my office was a bit more formal I would probably wear an outfit like this. To dress it down a bit I would also pair this outfit with my white Adidas Superstars instead of the heel though.
Outfit Five
I meant to only do three outfits in this post, but we've ended up with five. Oh, well. This fifth outfit I've worn to work as well, and I loved it so much that I just had to feature it. The only thing I switched out is the shoes, I had to share my Sacha shoes in this post because I wear them to work so much, but I wore this outfit with my Dune booties. Both work really well though. This hot pink blazer is an old one, I've had it for probably at least 5 years and I still love it so much. It spices up any all black outfit and I don't have to make an effort. I've paires it with my Mango turtleneck again because I love that thing, but it would work with any black tee, or maybe a flowy black blouse if you want to go a bit more dressy, that would be stunning (I don't have one though).
And that is all the outfits I have to share today! I really enjoyed doing this and thinking about why I love and wear these outfits (or would wear the outfits). I'm already looking forward to stepping out of my comfort zone a bit with these outfit posts, I might do a 'one week no jeans' one, and a simple outfits of the week.. planning outfits for our summer trip, spring outfits, summer outfits, day to night things. Aah so many ideas!!
I do need to work on my posing and the setting though.. Maybe move the massive box of random stuff out of the way.. Maybe steal my boyfriend's camera for better quality pictures.. We'll see, I'm gonna play around with this a bit.
Thanks for stopping by❤

I am new at coding. On Sheet1 (Named "Tasks") I have a "Check Box activeX controls" that are linked to cells in Column Q and I Created a "Print" button. (Cells will = FALSE or TRUE depending on if the box(s) are checked)
What I want is, when someone clicks the Button it will select all Rows That = "TRUE" in column "Q" and copy them to a different sheet (Sheets name = "Print"), than print it.
1. Some Rows that = TRUE are hidden on Sheet "Tasks" and need to be un-hidden on sheet "Print".
2. I would like it to start copying them to Line 15 on the first page on Sheet "Print". (first page header is 14 lines long)
3. If the printed document gos beyond one page, the copied rows skips the first two lines each new page after so it doesn't over lap the headers. (Headers on pages "2:*" are 2 lines long.)
I am willing to give any information necessary by request.
Thank you to anyone who answers this.
In order to make things easiero n my self and for coding, I have changed the controls, I deleted the "Check Box activeX controls" and am just placing a "X" in the cell of the row I want to copy and having it blank in those I want to leave alone.

Firehouse Subs® Brings the Heat with its debut in Rhode Island, 46th State for the Brand
January 14, 2019 // Franchising.com // CRANSTON, RI - Entering into its 46th state, Firehouse Subs continues steady expansion throughout the country with the grand opening of the first Rhode Island location in Cranston on January 14, 2019. Firehouse Subs serves premium meats and cheeses steamed and piled high on a toasted sub roll, served "Fully Involved®" with fresh produce and condiments. In 2017, Firehouse Subs was named the No. 1 brand overall on Technomic's Consumer Brand Metrics rankings and was recognized as No. 1 among the Top 10 Most Craveable Sandwich Chain Sandwiches by Technomic for its signature Hook & Ladder Sub®. In addition to its signature subs, the restaurant offers a variety of catering options from sandwich and dessert platters to salads and snacks to fuel any occasion.
"This is an exciting milestone for Firehouse Subs to arrive in Rhode Island with enthusiastic franchisees ready to introduce new guests to the brand's signature steamed subs and our commitment to the communities we serve through Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation®," said Robert Baldacci, Area Representative for Firehouse Subs. "Growing our presence into new states and markets, especially in the Northeast, is an important component of our continued development strategy. Personally, this is a wonderful accomplishment for me and my family to see the opening of this restaurant near where my grandparents first settled as immigrants from Italy to Federal Hill in Providence."
The new location is under the ownership of first-time Firehouse Subs Franchisees Sejal and Harsh Patel, who have worked as engineers their entire lives but decided to chase their dream of owning their own business after falling in love with Firehouse Subs' food and commitment to the community.
The Cranston restaurant is located at 1000 Chapel View Blvd, Suite 108 and is open Sunday through Thursday from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 10:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. It will offer third-party delivery and in-house catering services.
Founded by former firefighting brothers, the new Cranston restaurant décor reflects the founding family's decades of fire and police service with donated gear and photos from the Cranston Fire Department on display. It also boasts a custom, hand-painted mural by Chief Mural Artist Joe Puskas depicting the true story of the local heroes of the Cranston Fire Department working together to fight a fire at an apartment complex where they saved several lives in March of 1992. Since the opening of the first Firehouse Subs in 1994, Puskas and his team have painted more than 1,150 murals from his studio at Firehouse Subs Headquarters in Jacksonville, Fla.
Firehouse Subs offers small, medium and large hot specialty subs, including the number one selling Hook & Ladder® sub, served with smoked turkey breast and Virginia honey ham smothered with Monterey Jack cheese. Other top sellers include the Smokehouse Beef & Cheddar Brisket™ loaded with USDA choice beef brisket smoked for up to 16 hours in an authentic Texas smokehouse and topped with melted cheddar cheese and a special combination of sauces, including Sweet Baby Ray's® Barbecue Sauce. Additionally, each restaurant offers an assortment of 50+ complimentary hot sauces, including Captain Sorensen's® Datil Pepper Hot Sauce, named in honor of the founding brothers' father, Rob Sorensen, a 43-year retired fire captain.
The touch-screen operated Coca-Cola Freestyle® fountain is available in every restaurant and offers 120+ sparkling and still beverage brands with 70+ regular and low-calorie options. Choices include the top-selling non-carbonated fountain drink Cherry Lime-Aid™, Cherry Lime-Aid™ Light and Sparkling Cherry Lime-Aid™, all exclusive original recipes by Firehouse Subs, served with fresh squeezed lime.
The Firehouse Rewards digital loyalty program offers guests an opportunity to earn and redeem points for each restaurant visit through a smartphone app. Once registered, guests can order in-app and access recent orders, redeem points for free items, and receive exclusive offers, such as a free medium sub on their birthday, and more. The free app is available on Google Play and in the App Store.
In 2005, Firehouse Subs created the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation® with the mission of providing funding, life-saving equipment and educational opportunities to first responders and public safety organizations. Many first responders make do with older equipment and have limited or no access to needed resources. The 501(c)(3) Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation has granted more than $40 million to hometown heroes in 48 states, Puerto Rico and Canada. Each restaurant recycles leftover, five-gallon pickle buckets, available to guests for a $2 donation to the Foundation. Donation canisters on register counters explain the nonprofit's mission and collect spare change, while the Round Up Program allows guests to "round up" their bill to the nearest dollar. All funds raised benefit the Foundation. This year, Firehouse of America will donate a portion of purchases at all U.S. Firehouse Subs locations to Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation, resulting in a minimum donation of one million dollars.

Proverbs 22:6
6Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.
As much as the scripture above makes sense, some do not realize that the habits children are taught or "caught" will stay with them. Even if they are not beneficial and potentially dangerous they will have them. I work in an educational environment and meet many people from different walks of life. But last night, I was really disturbed by what I witnessed. A young man with his younger sister and mother were present. I was meeting the other family members for the first time. We were having casual conversation when suddenly, the young sister decided to say what she had done earlier that day. She yelled to her older brother that she wanted to go outside and play in the snow. He thinking nothing of it, didn't bother to check that she was properly dressed to play in the snow though it was cold outside. This young girl who could be no more than 11 said she had recorded herself, via phone outside in her under garments playing in the snow. Seriously! I stopped what I was doing with the older brother and proceeded to speak to the young girl to explain how much of an absolute unacceptable behavior that was. The mother chimed in. I let the young lady know about predators and that she is never to do so such a thing. I looked her directly in her eyes to reiterate this and even let her know that I unfortunately know from experience without going into detail. I kept asking if what I was saying was crystal clear. The mother then began to say never to take half-naked pictures of herself to display. I asked again, was it clear. She still had the look on her face like she didn't get what the big issue was. I hope that was a wake up call for the mother.
Now, why am I telling you this? The conversation that was had in front of me, a complete stranger, should've been had a long time ago. I reminded the brother to never let his sister out of the house without first checking to make sure she is properly dressed with hat, gloves, etc. I said she could've suffered frost bite, etc. And being the adult in the house at the time, it was still his responsibility. Now I also know a few other things that were expressed in a previous meeting by the young man and now I see what he meant. Parents, I will address you. Do not think it is someone else's responsibility to explain to children about predators, sex or anything else. You are the first teachers. The teenage years are often too late to discuss these topics. Children are under attack in their infant and toddler years. Have you not seen the news? And an alarming but true statistic, 85% of the time, children are abused by someone they know. It does not matter that the subject is uncomfortable to you. It's supposed to be uncomfortable. More importantly, IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU. It's about the young life God has given you charge of. And many of you are afraid to read my book, "Shh Don't Tell." This is exactly why you ought to read it. A fellow co-worker and psychologist said, "the young girl lacks attention and is a prime target for a predator." This statement goes along with what I learned in a previous meeting.
God continues to remind me why He gave me the project and the next steps. It's on behalf of children like the one I met last night. Talk to your children so they do not end up on the news or milk cartons please. Train up a child with knowledge and wisdom. That means you have to have knowledge and wisdom too. Hosea 4:6 says we perish from a lack of knowledge, children included.

Holden HZ Premier - today's family tempter
Bring back the seventies with a family six
Of all the stories and magazine covers we've tackled over recent years, it seems the features on old-school chrome bumper family cars are the ones that have really struck home.
Look at traffic these days and it's easy to forget that it was once dominated by cars like you see here, with Falcons and Holdens mixing it with the odd Valiant.
Finding one in largely original condition is a bit of a challenge as they tended either to be worked to death, or modified to the point where they're beatuiful but only a distant cousin of what left the factory.
The 1978 car pictured is effectively the last hurrah of the big Kingswood platform, albeit the luxury Premier variant.
In this case it's running a 202 six and Trimatic auto with air and power steering.
This example needs a freshen-up and, as with any project car, it would pay to crunch the numbers on what you reckon it might cost to recommission.
Premiers always sell at a premium over the more humble models.
This one is with a broker in Sydney and is priced at $24,500.

It's been a tough couple of weeks – traveling takes its toll and life carries on in the big city even when you are away. It's also hard to have your heart broken a couple of times in (relatively) quick succession.
It got very hot in NYC in a short time – although the humidity has yet to kick in and make it unpleasant – what happened to spring? Last Monday it was raining and felt almost cold enough to snow, by Friday it was sitting on the terrace weather. It's been 80 degrees plus (26 Celsius plus for everyone who doesn't live in the USA, Liberia, or Burma/Myanmar) for the last four days. As long as there's a breeze, it's very nice (reminds me of Kauai), but I wonder if these weather patterns with above normal temps will stick around through the summer and make things unpleasant.
But hey – life is still pretty good in the big picture. I could be a dog trying to figure out what this sign from Narita is telling me.

Discipline Differences: Effective Time Outs
When it comes to discipline, treating each child the same simply isn't fair! Think for example about the difference in how time outs affect children who are more extraverted (are energized by interacting and engaging in activities) and more introverted (are energized by solitude and reflection). Send an Introvert to his or her room and the silent reaction might be Yes! I get to avoid everyone and all that noise! In contrast, ten minutes alone for an Extravert can seem torturous!
Yet time outs are a sound disciplinary strategy if done correctly. Here are a few things to think about as you consider how you might use them with your own children.
- Use a boring location. "Go to your room" means books and toys even for Extraverts. We used the bottom of our stairway to the second floor, where nothing is happening.
- Might you leave timing in the hands of your child? We asked our children to take themselves to the stairs until they were ready to tell us how they would change their behavior. This gave them time to stop simmering if they were angry but also required them to come up with a plan for "reentry." It was very effective with both of our (very different) children.
- Use writing as a form of time out. On a few occasions, we decided that our children owed apology notes to other adults. Whether they wrote at the kitchen table or in their rooms, this activity requires a "time out" for thinking and forces them to reflect on what they did. One of our children looked up from a half-written note and said, "Do you think my teacher will ever forgive me?" It's a powerful strategy.
- Would time out from a possession work? While Extraverts usually have tons of interests, Introverts may focus on one or two toys or other possessions at a time. Removing that object for a few hours may be far more effective with Introverts than any regular time out. After all, their inner world is pretty interesting no matter where you have them sit!
These little strategies often kept us from battling over discipline during discipline!

Bright Friday
Posted on 30. Nov, 2017, in Christian Values, Community, Gospel ValuesNo Comments
As Christmas approaches, people are encouraged to shop even more than ever. Days like Black Friday extend for a week, where massive pre Christmas sales entice more people to spend. To offer some reflection and an antidote to all the shopping madness, Columba Press along with The Irish Catholic organised "Bright Friday". Bringing together poets, musicians and mindfulness practitioners from across Ireland, they held a day in University Church on St. Stephen's Green.
Miriam Gormally met well-known priest Fr. Brian D'Arcy who spoke very movingly at this event. She interviewed him afterwards about how we can find calm and reflection amidst the Christmas chaos.

|Robust Channel Estimation in Multicell OFDM(A) Downlink Systems With Propagation Delay
|Authors :
|Taehoon Kwon, Hyungjoon Song and Daesik Hong
|Conference :
|IEEE Conference Vehicular Technology
|Abstract :
|On estimating channel information in multicell OFDM(A) system, the received pilot signal is interfered by other cell's signals. In this paper, we propose a new channel estimation technique based on orthogonal pilot structures in multicell OFDM(A) system. The proposed pilot structure in time domain has zero padding of the channel length to minimize the noise enhancement and use orthogonal sequences to eliminate other cell's interference. Especially, we design orthogonal sequences to give robustness to propagation delay. Simulation results confirm that mean square error (MSE) performance of the proposed channel estimation is better than that of the conventional methods in multicell environment.

When you live in an area as bountiful as the Okanagan, it's a good idea to take advantage of the fresh, seasonal fruit, veggies, and other healthy food that's grown and produced right here at home. The benefits can range from supporting local farmers and growers to experiencing amazingly fresh produce. To help shed some light on all of the wonderful benefits that come with buying and eating locally, we've compiled a list of the most common reasons why this practice is a good one to adopt.
When you buy local produce from a local grocer, you'll be given the opportunity to taste local farm produce that is as fresh and tasty as can be. This is because the goods don't need to travel very far to get to the grocer's shelf, and in most cases, the produce displayed was most likely picked just a few days before.
When you shop at a local grocery store that offers fresh produce, the food that is in season is usually put on display. Practice preparing seasonal recipes using fruits and vegetables that haven't spent most of their shelf life on a truck or waiting to be shipped in a warehouse. Use the seasonal produce to reconnect with nature and the cycling of seasons.
When you purchase local goods, you're ensuring that the money you spend in the Okanagan stays in the Okanagan. Not only does this help to create local jobs, it also ensures we continue to have access to some of the freshest goods in the country.
By choosing to purchase locally grown and produced healthy food, you'll be preventing the need for food to be brought in from other countries. This reduces air pollution, climate change, and acid rain created by the carbon emissions from trucks and other transport vessels.
Compare your shopping experience at an independent food market that features farm fresh goods to a trip to a big box grocery store. Instead of shopping in oversized warehouses with fluorescent lighting and big crowds, stroll through smaller local grocery stores instead. Take in the relaxed atmosphere, the beautiful displays, and the lack of lengthy line-ups.
Oftentimes, grocery store produce bins are packed with fruits and veggies that come from all over the world. They've likely been gassed to reduce their ripening time and been coated in pesticides. When you buy local, you know your food has been grown within a small radius of the store, hasn't been treated to extend its shelf life, and has been ethically grown.
If you're ready to experience the freshest produce that the Okanagan has to offer, come and visit Mike's Produce in Kelowna. We work with local growers and suppliers to make sure only the freshest items end up on our shelves.

Galbally (Irish: An Gallbhaile, meaning "town of the stranger or the foreigner")[2] is a village in southeast County Limerick, Ireland, on the border with County Tipperary. It is located at the foot of the Galtee Mountains and at the western approach to the Glen of Aherlow. The Aherlow River, flowing down from the Galtee mountains, runs by the village, to meet the Suir at Kilmoyler a short distance north of Cahir.
Galbally is in a valley overlooked by the Galtee Mountains.
A number of archaeological sites and buildings in the Galbally area are included in the Record of Protected Structures.[3] Among these is "Darby's Bed", a passage tomb which sits on a nearby hill in the townland of Duntryleague.[4] It is cited in Irish legend as one of the places where Diarmuid and Grainne spent a night during their flight from the angry Fionn MacCumhaill.[5]

GURGAON, India — Apollo Tyres Ltd. reported a 20-percent drop in operating income for the quarter ended Sept. 30 despite an 18-percent increase in sales.
Gurgaon-based Apollo cited higher raw materials prices — up nearly 15 percent vs. the second quarter a year ago — for the drop in operating income.
On a consolidated level, the operating profit fell 20 percent to $59 million, on net sales of $523.4 million, for an operating ratio of 11.2 percent. Regionally, Apollo's Indian operations reported an 18-percent jump in net sales, making them the "dominant contributor to the revenue growth" in the second quarter, Apollo reported.

Los Angeles, CA
Formation of interfacial nanoscale voids in Al during room-temperature caustic corrosion was characterized by positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) and compared with measurements of deuterium absorption using secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The hypothesis was investigated that voids are created from vacancy-hydrogen (Vac-H) defects introduced during corrosion. Evidence for both mobile and immobile forms of absorbed hydrogen was obtained, the latter present within distances of 50 nm from the metal-oxide interface, where voids were also found. During corrosion, the immobile hydrogen was found only during discrete 1-2 min intervals of time separated by periods of 1-2 min when it was not present. Model calculations suggested that this transient behavior is consistent with repeated nucleation and dissolution of clusters of Vac-H defects. Only some aspects of the time-dependence of the void concentration from PAS corresponded with that of absorbed hydrogen; the former is believed to be influenced by metallic impurities.

Wake up with makeup perfectly applied every day… permanent makeup can make your life easier!
Anyone who wants to improve their appearance and have the convenience of lip color, eyebrows and eyeliner that won't rub off, smudge or smear can enjoy the benefits of micropigmentation.
Permanent makeup, also known as Intradermal Pigmentation, is a revolutionary method of applying natural pigments into the dermal layer of skin. This state-of-the-art technique is medically proven and specifically designed to be completely safe.
Permanent makeup is used for a variety of cosmetic enhancements such as permanent eyebrows, eyeliner, and lipliner/color. Other permanent makeup procedures include vitiligo, scar camouflage, areola restoration, hairline enhancement, and more. Permanent makeup has also been used to cover-up stretch marks, birthmarks, freckles/age spots, and uneven skin discolorations.
Lip Liner/Color
The permanent cosmetic procedure for lip color is beautiful. It can appear to change the size and shape of the lips as well as the color. This procedure helps prevent lipstick from bleeding into the surrounding skin. Many people request a soft pink, similar to the lip color to that of an infant, for those who want a natural look. Others may desire a dramatic effect.
The procedure for eyebrows can mimic the appearance of hair in the brow line. Anyone who desires more fullness of the brows will love the procedure (and the time saved not applying makeup!) Those who used to apply pencil can go swimming, play tennis, or wipe their forehead without the embarrassment of losing their eyebrows. Those suffering from alopecia (hair loss) are pleasantly surprised at how natural it looks.
A subtle, natural look, mimicking thousands of tiny eyelashes with the implantation of pigments in the lash line is popular with both male and female clients. Additional shadowing of color can be added for a soft natural liner or a more bold, definite line can be achieved. Ophthalmologists recommend Intradermal Cosmetic procedures for those who are allergic to conventional makeup and for those wearing contact lenses.
Who Can Benefit from Permanent Makeup?
- Women AND Men
- Busy people with little time to apply makeup
- People with allergies to conventional makeup
- Anyone who desires freedom from daily makeup application
- Those who are physically incapable of applying makeup
- Those who are active in sports
- Those with oily skin who tend to shed makeup easily
- Burn survivors and people with flaws in their skin
- Those suffering from alopecia, vitiligo and trichotillomania
- Men and women who seek correction of asymmetrical facial features
- Entertainers, actresses, and models – such as Elizabeth Taylor, Dolly Parton, Raquel Welch, Cher, and others
- Men and women who wish to look their best all of the time!
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Traditional Tattooing process and Permanent Makeup?
Where both procedures involve tattooing the skin, in traditional tattooing, pigment is added to the third layer of the skin, where in permanent makeup pigment is added to the second layer of the skin, called the Dermis, creating a final result of a soft blend of color to the tattooed area.
Is this procedure painful?
Topical anesthetics are used to minimize discomfort.
Do I have a choice of colors?
Definitely! There's a wide spectrum of colors you may choose from.
Do I have a choice in the placement of pigments?
Of course. During your consultation, design and pigment placement will be determined.
What is involved in recovery?
There will be slight swelling and redness in the skin, which will subside quickly. You may resume normal activities immediately after the procedure. Complete healing takes one to six weeks while the pigmentation matures and reaches its final color.

Netflix is taking their entertainment franchise to the next level with video games based on its original series. "We're looking for opportunities to extend the universe of these shows and films into other mediums," Chris Lee, director of interactive games at Netflix, said during a panel. "To me, it was really obvious to try to do that into video games."
Netflix is using Stranger Things and The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance as a test for future potential releases for its other shows. The games will be available on most of the major gaming consoles, as well as PC.
Stranger Things 3: The Game, which is based on the acclaimed sci-fi horror show, will be available for purchase July 4 — the same day the new season premieres. The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance series, which is a prequel to the Jim Henson movie from 1982 is scheduled to be released in August 20.
However, Netflix isn't creating or producing the games though; the company is licensing the characters to outside studios. The streaming giant first licensed a Stranger Things mobile game in 2017. A new mobile game is scheduled to launch in 2020.

9490 Pandrup
Kaas Briketfabrik (patent fuel) was builded in 1925 in the moor of Lundergaard.
Ib Nyboe got the idea to make hard pressed briquettes, which was more profitable to carry across bigger areas. During 2. World War, as the factory was producing at highest level, about 600 men worked in the factory.
In April 1966 the factory closed, because of crossing to other forms of fuel and lack of moorearth.
Today the factory is derelichted.

Judge: Oracle's Java APIs Are Not Copyrightable As Asserted, Copyright Claims Against Android Dismissed
We're hearing via The Verge that Judge William Alsup has just handed down his decision on the copyrightability of Oracle's 37 Java API's, asserted by Oracle as having been infringed by Google in the Android operating system. This is probably the most important issue of the entire case. While a jury decided that Google did infringe Oracle's APIs as asserted by Oracle, that decision hinged on the assumption that the APIs were in fact copyrightable in the way Oracle had insisted they were.
Alsup determined that Oracle's API's are not, in fact, copyrightable in their "sequence, structure, and organization," and the related infringement claims against Google have been dismissed. This isn't the end of the road for Oracle, though - the appeal process will drag this on at least another six months. Alsup's decision was apparently narrowly tailored to the specifics of this case - meaning the anticipated wide-reaching decision on the copyrightability of APIs as a whole won't be coming down this time. Here's what Alsup had to say:
In closing, it is important to step back and take in the breadth of Oracle's claim. Of the 166 Java packages, 129 were not violated in any way. Of the 37 accused, 97 percent of the Android lines were new from Google and the remaining three percent were freely replicable under the merger and names doctrines. Oracle must resort, therefore, to claiming that it owns, by copyright, the exclusive right to any and all possible implementations of the taxonomy-like command structure for the 166 packages and/or any subpart thereof - even though it copyrighted only one implementation. To accept Oracle's claim would be to allow anyone to copyright one version of code to carry out a system of commands and thereby bar all others from writing their own different versions to carry out all or part of the same commands. No holding has ever endorsed such a sweeping proposition.
By providing a narrow, fact-specific discussion of the issue, Judge Alsup has given Google a considerable advantage at the appellate level. If Alsup's decision isn't particularly far-reaching or broad in its scope, the appellate level court will be less keen on overturning the decision and prolonging an already bitter legal battle. The excerpt from the conclusion of his decision also just makes sense - Oracle is basically trying to argue that an API can be copyrighted in an almost patent-like fashion (as something protected in function more than form), and that's just absurd.
This leaves a minor copyright claim with a maximum of $300,000 in statutory damages available (that Oracle very likely won't get), and a second copyright claim that is essentially damage-less.
That said, anything can happen in the 9th Circuit - so we'll see how this case turns out on appeal. For now, it's a big win for Android, and Google's counsel should be breaking out the bubbly.
