You have some electrical work and you need a recommended electrician to do it.
Rated People is here to help:
Get the recommended electrician you need with Rated People. Simply let us know about your project in the form above and we'll do the rest.
A local qualified electrician can do all sorts of electrical home improvements and repairs for you. From the usual lighting and power fixes to air conditioning, electric underfloor heating and security jobs like access control.
For greener living, you can use an electrician to install micro-generation products like solar panels. This will save you money and mean you could even get paid in the future for the energy you produce for others.
Electricians are getting qualified in micro-generation through schemes such as ELECSA that also runs the 'Competent Person' scheme for electricians. The 'Competent Person' scheme cuts out the hassle of home owners having to notify building regulations for most types of domestic electrical work. Electricians certified by the 'Competent Person' scheme carry out works which comply with current UK regulations for electrical work.
You can find registered and reliable electricians with Rated People. Find out if they're recommended for their quality by local people in your area by checking their reviews and ratings.
If you're not ready to post your job yet, don't worry, there's more information on the site to help you make the right choices, find out more about electrical work and electricians and know what to do when you're ready to find one.
Most electrical jobs around the home are best left to a qualified electrician. Anything but the simplest tasks require specialist knowledge to ensure that they are carried out safely and effectively and to avoid severe health risks and damage to your appliances.
The role of an electrician is to carry out electrical installations, repairs and emergency electrical work. Some specialise in installing electrical wiring in commercial, industrial and domestic buildings, while others spend most of their time performing maintenance and repairs on electrical systems and appliances.
A qualified electrician will generally carry out a wide variety of work. If you live in an old house with aging wiring, you may wish to hire an electrician to carry out a complete rewiring of the property to ensure its safety. If a fault has occurred within any element of your household electrical system, an electrician can be called upon to carry out emergency electrical work to rectify the problem. Other electrical jobs include locating and fixing faults, repairing household electrical appliances and performing safety checks.
As well as repairing existing electrical systems, a qualified electrician can also perform any electrical installations you may need doing in your home. This might be fitting new plug sockets as needed, installing a new fuse box or anything else associated with your household electricity supply. If you're planning on having new lighting fitted in any part of your home, an electrician is the person to call. Some electricians meanwhile specialise in fitting electrical home improvements, such as electric showers and ceiling fans. When electrical work is needed, the sensible and safe option is to call the professionals.
If you need to find a local electrician to carry out repairs or an installation, simply submit your job today!

SMF Support > Language Specific Support
Spanish ISO installation used with UTF-8 language files. Convert to UTF-8?
Need some advice :)
I had a working installation of SMF but for some reason stopped working (internal server error) So I deleted everything (folder and files) and did a full re-install of SMF 2.0.2 with clean files.
Everything is working fine, used repair_settings.php as I'm using the same database with huge data in it.
The point is that with the old forum I used an iso-8859-1 language (spanish) but now when I'm reading messages and topics and everything on the public forum section, I see strange characters, so I installed the spanish utf8 lang file and now everything is fine. :D
My question is: as my data is in utf-8 and I'm using a utf-8 language in order for the right display of data, Should I convert my DB to utf-8? Because in SMF appear as iso-8859-1 (in my db manager hosting control panel is latin1_swedish_ci)
A large upgrade would have cleaned the SMF files as well. ;)
From what I can understand Spanish special chars in mesages were not displaying properly with Spanish ISO languages files but they appear correctly with use of Spanish UTF-8 language files. I that correct?
P.S. As this is a documentation topic I will ask for splitting and moving to a support board.
* Just a message for osckar to find the splitted topic.
How to convert to UTF-8 link to guide
Re: It's all Greek to me .... :) A support topic with a similar (I believe) case to yours.
Don't be in a hurry, you may ask additional details.

Most iTravl electronic translators come with a single SD card that contains the language set for that device; some multi-language versions use two cards for this purpose.
For all iTravl translators:
Weighs only 7.05 oz!
This translator is Ectaco P/N NTL-6W
Note: AC Travel Kit is optional, but required outside the USA. One is included in the Accessory Pack or may be bought separately.
Read more about speech/voice on electronic pocket translators.
Click here for details
In addition to the translating and learning tools, the iTravl has these great features:
Scanning language limitations
The Deluxe version is available only for certain language pairs. Among these pairs, it scans in either language except Chinese. The 9C Deluxe and Chinese Deluxe will not scan Chinese characters.
How scanning works
Smart phone apps. Sometimes, customers ask why they should buy a pocket translator instead of a smart phone app. It's a good question, because smart phones like the Android are awesome products. But then, so are pocket translators.
Laptops. Yes, a laptop will run circles around a pocket translator if, for example, you want to crunch a big spreadsheet. But pocket translators have some advantages:
Human interpretors. If you thought getting a laptop into your pocket was tough, try that with a 150 lb person! A pocket translator has some other advantages:
You will find translator industry jargon defined in our glossary. The last thing we want is poor communication! If you still have questions, the fastest way to get them answered is to send us an e-mail at sales @ mindconnection.com (remove the spaces and paste into your e-mail client address box).

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

TD, I cannot begin to point out all of the factors in that essay that I disagree with. With the wealth of knowledge available in this day and age it still shocks me that such rehtoric still exists. Some of it made me irritated, some of it made me feel ill. In the past I have been hesitant to express my views on some of the more flammable issues as they have on occasion been mistaken for NPS policy. (You should see a few of the blistering PM's I have recieved.) Sometimes I feel that I should remain quiet. This is one of those times. Perhaps I should create a new logon.

In the early days of the Republic, the southern states held their own in terms of political power, but as the 19th century progressed, this began to change. As southerners saw it, the Congress began to favor northern interests at the expense of the south. To them, the gradual loss of political power meant the loss of economic power. You make it hard to argue with you TD, but I must take issue that "Congress began to favor northern inerest at the expense of the south." Most ceretainly the balance of power was swinging the other way, but it hadn't yet. The "north" had fallen all over itself making concessions to the desires of the "south." The Fugitive Slave Law of 1850 is but one example. Another is ithe first 13th Amendment. Still another is the Committee of 33. It's not like the southern leaders had no alternatives. It is quite apparent that the political power in the south was heading for a country of its own.....no matter what. I see nothing "noble" in that. The "south" pure and simple, fell prey to a small but vicious group of secessionists. In short, it got screwed, royally. ole |

Ole, You and I can argue about this law or that, or about how onerous one tariff or another was. The key words in what I wrote were: "As the southerners saw it." I was not addressing the veracity of their views, only the views themselves. The southerners were, quite frankly, used to getting their own way. As they saw it, they were gradually being surrounded and dominated by their opponents. All they could see in the future was more of the same coming. We can argue whether their political philosophies dictated their economic ones or vice versa. But I believe that they saw no future for themselves in the direction that the country was heading. I strongly disagree with your view that a few "vicious" Fire-Eaters somehow hoodwinked the southern population into favoring secession. Certainly, many in the south were opposed to the idea at that time, or even in general. The idea was even voted down initially in some places. Some areas of the states that seceded were pro-Union, and remained so. But I believe that the majority of the southern people in 1861 found the idea of their own nation to be preferable to remaining in one in which the majority held beliefs that had diverged from their own. |

TD- a little off topic, but was texas not the first state to not have an "out clause" when it joined the union? That is to say it was not expressed that the state should have the right to sucession if they believed their union with the United States was not to their advantage (I mean expressed by the state, and so lets not even touch bases with the second amendment) That is probably a even more prickly issue than slavery by itself, whether states have a right to leave the union should they so choose without interference. Most historians they put on the television all seem to think the founding fathers would have been startled that the constitution they devised would still be in service and would be proud of what america has become. The first part of that I would tend to agree with, the second part, however.... |

Kentucky Orphan, The agreement between Texas and the United States that allowed Texas to be annexed did not specifically address the right to secede from the US. Many believed that ALL states had the right to secede if they chose to, because secession was not forbidden by the Constitution. Thus, it was allowed under the 9th and 10th Amendments, etc. See the Statehood section below. Republic of Texas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The agreement did contain some unusual provisions. One allowed Texas, if it chose to, to be divided into as many as five states. The prospect of ten senators from here would, no doubt, cause major heartburn in other areas of the country, especially the northeast. If ever attempted, it would surely be challenged by those who might say that the 1845 agreement no longer was applicable, since Texas chose to secede in 1861. All of that would be argued back and forth. The agreement allowed Texas to keep its public lands. (It later ceded territory outside of its present borders to the federal government.) This was useful later as it allowed the state to control its oil reserves, though that was not imagined in 1845. There were other unusual provisions- such as the right to fly the state flag at the same height as the US national flag. But, basically,the bottom line was that the Texas Republic was out of funds by the early 1840s. The US government assumed debts owed by the Republic of Texas as part of the deal. It also provided protection to Texans from hostile Indians, and incursions by the Mexican Government. The annexation was seen as advantageous for both parties.

TD:As the 19th century progressed, the cultural differences between north and south grew more profound. The north became less agricultural , and more industrial. Great immigrations came into the country due to wars and other conditions in Europe. Most of these immigrants flooded into the northern states raising northern population levels more significantly than southern ones. The north became more urban, and less and less like the south. As time passed, the attitudes of people in the two regions diverged more and more. You could say that the two regions developed different mindsets. (Or at least more different than they had had originally). Excellent post, you crystallize the issues very well. I would say the mindsets had always been very different, it's just the issues that divided over the things that united started coming more and more into the forefront as the 19th century progressed. Heck, I could say we blame the war on the pilgrims and the cavaliers. The cultural differences between north and south had always been there. Certainly the cultures both changed over time too. This may be too general of a statement but they almost seemed to have passed each other in the night at some point in time. The Pilgrims started out very religious and today their offspring in New England tend to be thought of today, in general, as not quite as religious as southerners and commercially minded. The Cavaliers started out as a commercial enterprise without any real religious intent. Today the holy rollers are generally considered more at home in the south, than the NE. There may be a book or at least an article for some historian to work on. |

The usual astute post, David. What you've said bounces around now and then, but it seems to be quite neglected. The more vociferous of the talkers often refer to the difference between the cavaliers and the roundheads. I tend to ignore such pronouncements as, apparently, do many others. It would be worthwhile to explore that idea, but it seems that it gets side-tracked by real issues. There was an element in southern society that thought itself to be of a superior class. We don't very often get into discussions of that factor. But, and it is only a germ of a thought, it would seem that there was a self-assumed aristocracy among the wealthier southerners. One that couldn't be bothered with such things as cooperation and the rule of law that they hadn't personally approved. More than a bit thin, but it might be worth chasing. ole |

I cannot begin to point out all of the factors in that essay that I disagree with I got bollixed up somewhere in the duelling links. I'll assume you were referring to the essay on Lew Rockwell's site, rather than the essay by Langley. Rockwell's site is, may I be politically incorrect here?, a bit extreme. I appreciate it's position and do refer to it. But to cite essays on it as approaching fact just steps a little over the line of rational.. Please tell me that that was what you were saying. ole |

Ole, Calcav was irritated and made ill by this essay that I posted a link to earlier. A Jeffersonian View of the Civil War I said that I agreed with some of what the author maintained (about the causes of the war and the actions taken by the federal government). The implication I took from the response was that I was considered to be something of a troglodyte for giving credibility to any of it, in spite of the: "wealth of knowledge" that is out there. |

The trouble with Miller and the liberterians at LewRockwell is that they demolish straw-men, present opinion and analysis as fact and frequently contradict themselves. For example, can they provide the textbook where "Today American children are taught in the nation's schools, both in the North and South, that it was wrong for people to support the Confederacy and to fight and die for it"? "Only the United States and Haiti freed their slaves by war. Every other country in the New World that had slaves, such as Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela, freed them in the 19th century peacefully." Thank goodness they learned from our experience... "the war freed four million slaves into poverty"... and a liberterian is in favor of '40 acres and a mule' or some other 'handout'? "Although certainly a contentious political issue and detested by abolitionists, in 1861 slavery nevertheless was not a major public issue." Apparently the textbooks used above have no cites for the major issues of the 1850s from the compromise of 1850, through the Kansas-Nebraska act, the Dred Scott decision to John Brown and others... "Why were business and political leaders in the North so intent on keeping the southern states in the Union? It was, to paraphrase Charles Dickens, solely a fiscal matter." So, Dickens, the british novelist and social critic is an economist as well... "Lincoln coerced the South to fire the first shots..." yeah, right... With essays like this, the problem is not what is incorrect but where to begin... HankC |

I would very much prefer that we refrain from labelling one a troglodyte. It's an arcane observation, but it deserves thought and discussion. TD is, however wrong I think, a rational man and sane. (You should see some of the wild posts on other boards!) He merits consideration and respectful rebuttal. Kinda like, we disagree and let's find out why. Any post on Rockwell's site is automatically questionable. That's not a nice way to look at it, but it is realistic. And that's not to say that there's no value to any of them. Some are quite thoughtful and worth consideration. The one linked, however, does not fall into that category. It's repetitive goofball stuff we've been seeing for quite some time. It boggles me that people actually believe that claptrap. I'd better stop there. ole |

Ole, I don't feel the need to defend everything said in the essay that I posted, because I don't believe everything that is maintained there. However, you have not presented proof of any factual errors related to events in the war and statements made by various personages. So, basically, you and Hank C. are saying that you disagree with opinions and interpretations of events by the author of the essay. I presented the essay in an attempt to illustrate that the causes of the war were complex and went beyond simply the issue of slavery. Events and actions by both sides had been leading up to the conflict since the first days of the Republic. The essay included statements from people of that time, both north and south (and foreign), citing their opinions on economic factors that came into play. I also believe that the average southern soldier felt that he was giving his blood in defense of his home and to achieve independence, rather than to defend the insititution of slavery. Likewise, the average northern soldier would have maintained that he was fighting to save the Union, not to free the slaves. Hank C's response to the essay was not addressed to me, but I can respond to some of what he said. I do believe that we are living in an age of political correctness. The PC position is to portray those who served the CSA as misguided at best. I've seen lesson plans on the Internet that greatly oversimplified the issues and wondered how poor white southerners could have: "Fought for slavery." I am pleased that I got my basic education several decades ago, and am not in the public school system as a student nowadays. As I said above, Hank C's response does not dispute any historical facts in the essay. However, I am in full agreement with his last objection. The south was not: "Coerced" into firing the first shots. I believe that the master politician, Lincoln, set the trap for them at Ft. Sumter. However, they proceeded to jump in themselves with both feet. Before federal property was seized, I believe that there was considerable opinion in the north to let the: "Wayward sisters" go in peace. Taking federal property, especially by firing guns, was the most stupid thing that the southerners could have done, and at precisely the wrong time. All it accomplished was to lose whatever sympathy they had in some areas. But it does not surprise me that they did what they did. One of the reasons that they lost the war was a tendency to put: "principle" above: "practicality." At Ft. Sumter, all that they needed to do was wait Anderson out. He himself gave them the date when he would have to abandon the place. They could then have offered compensation to the US Government for the property. It wouldn't have changed the outcome in all probability. However, it might have forced Mr. Lincoln to provoke some other event in order to inflame passions in the north, so that he could go about the business of raising an army. Mr. Davis' wish to be: "Left alone", could not have come to pass. As for my postings in general, please feel free to continue your attempts to rebut them. You have every right to be wrong when telling me that I'm wrong. PS- Calcav did not actually call me a :'Troglodyte." He just seems to think that I am one. |

To back track to a previous post regarding Stowes book, to base one's view of slavery on a piece of fiction is a stretch (don't take the erroneous view of my condoning slavery in the least) but for a much more accurate view of this horible practice, one should read Douglasses' autobiography written about ten years previously. There is no way one can view slavery as anything other than an abysmal practice. In my opinion, I don't think there was or has been a more important or influential afro-american individual than Douglas. It's a waste of anyones time and efforts arguing the good points (none) of slavey, in any period of time, PERIOD. Doc C |

If it is necessary to pick apart (was it Miller's?) the essay posted on Rockwell's site, I will reluctantly do that. It would take little effort, but it would also be an exercise in wasting everyone's time. I suppose I ought to go back and look at it again. At first viewing, it appeared to be the same old revisionist BS we get treated with from time to time. Will be back with that, maybe tomorrow. ole On second thought, my stomach really is not up to it. Just looking it over once again makes me want to upchuck. You figure it out.

Texas Defender, In my mind when Miller's essay is distilled there is nothing left. It's well written but vacuous and poorly organized. Even superficial scratching of his paragraphs reveals little basis for his conclusions. You are correct that few poor white southerners fought for slavery. They were fighting to protect their home. But why men fought and the causes of the conflict are 2 different topics. After all, Pearl Harbor did not cause World War II, but it sure induced a lot of enlistments. IMHO, Lincoln set a trap at Fort Sumter for the southern politicians in the same way I set a trap for burglars by owning a TV and a stereo and then going out to dinner. It's not a 'poor choice' - it's a deliberate decision on their part just waiting for an opportunity. I do not mind an honest disagreement, as it helps us both hone our opinions HankC |

Museum Etiquette to Guide Your Visit
- The art at the DMA is not camera shy! Photography without a flash is allowed in the galleries unless otherwise indicated. But, to protect the artwork, tripods/monopods are not allowed.
- Smoking is not permitted in any area of the Museum. Food and beverages are not allowed in the galleries.
- For safety and health reasons, visitors should wear attire appropriate to a public facility, including shoes and shirts.
- Please do not touch any artwork. When visiting the galleries with small children, please maintain supervision.
- Fragile objects are often placed behind Plexiglas or ropes. Please refrain from touching the Plexiglas casing. If you see tape on the floor near a work of art, the tape indicates how far away you should stand from the object. A good general rule is to stand at least three feet away from a work of art.
- The coat check is located on the first level under the staircase next to the DMA Cafe. All umbrellas and oversized parcels must be checked.
We appreciate your help in protecting the art for future generations to enjoy.

Thanks, Steve. The Camping website says the gates open "no later than 5pm on Wednesday". I see the map showing the different camping areas. Where is the official volunteer camping area?
And thanks for having extra poles available just in case. See in in two weeks!
BTW what is your volunteer crew? I'm on the Ice Crew which should give me a chance to meet lots of new people.

The tread of the CS20 features the innovative double-L-design with a rounded groove contour for excellent traction and self-cleaning characteristics.

Style: Let's Shop Etsy For Brooches!
Written by Pip Lincolne
Be Pretty
3 Comments
I am a huge fan of Etsy. It's a total treasure trove of handmade and vintage greatness, with online stores stretching across the world and independent makers and gatherers showing the most unique, on-trend and varied items. The good thing about Etsy is that you can support someone who may have a tiny business (or indeed a lounge room business), rather than shopping at one of the 'big' shops for mass-produced stuff.
I love Etsy because I can shop small, I can shop unique and I can have a relationship with the person I am buying from (but not in a creepy way!) Etsy really is like an online marketplace.
There are tons of clever, interesting stall-holders vying for position. And the market economy keeps prices fair (actually, sometimes a little TOO fair!) and ensures that stock is ever-changing.
Today I thought we'd look at cute brooches on Etsy. If you've been too busy to dig through the world's biggest, craftiest jewellery box, then this is the post for you! I've done the digging for you! You're welcome!
Do you have a fave, amongst these cute things?

New behind-the-scenes details are emerging about Rick Perry's presidential campaign, one that started strong but shriveled after a series of surprising gaffes and misstatements.
A spokesperson with Perry's office confirmed an account in a new book that the Texas governor discovered he had "mild sleep apnea" during his White House bid.
Perry, who entered the race late in August 2011, drew criticism for not taking his presidential run seriously because of his mistakes on the campaign trail. The most memorable moment, perhaps, came in a Michigan debate in November, when Perry failed to remember the third federal agency he had proposed eliminating. He named two, but could not come up with the third, even after appearing to consult notes.
"I would do away with the Education, the, uh, Commerce, and, let's see. I can't," Perry said, after struggling to come up with the name for 53 seconds. "The third one I can't. Sorry. Oops."
Some attributed the mental laps, as well as a candid and comedic New Hampshire speech days earlier, to painkillers after Perry underwent back surgery in the summer of 2011. Perry's team maintained the governor discontinued use of the medicine prior to the start of his campaign.
A Perry spokesperson said the governor, however, found out he had a sleep condition.
"The Governor's July 2011 back surgery and his late entry into the presidential race presented obstacles during his campaign. Gov. Perry was diagnosed with mild sleep apnea during the campaign and was treated with a breathing machine for a few weeks," the spokeswoman said in a statement Sunday.
"Once the governor's back recovered sufficiently to return to his regular exercise routine, the apnea issue was resolved and no further treatment was necessary."
Perry's sleep problems were first reported in a new book, "Oops," by Texas Tribune reporter Jay Root.
"After conducting overnight tests on Perry, they produced a rather startling diagnosis: He had sleep apnea, and it had gone undetected for years, probably decades," Root writes, according to an excerpt of the book posted on the Texas Tribune website.
The ailment, Root continues, affects one in 10 men worldwide and "causes loud snoring and temporary lapses in breathing that disrupt normal sleep." Doctors prescribed a breathing machine to help alleviate symptoms, and Perry, an exercise junkie, soon got back to normal once he was able to work out again.
"The way he told it later, all that rigorous physical activity over the year had kept his sleep apnea in check," Root writes. "Then back surgery he underwent in July 2011 sidelined him, kept him out of the gym, and he went from light sleeper to insomniac."
