My Apologies…
I have to start by apologizing for the long break between posts. I can blame this on a lot of things but mostly it's come down to a choice between trying to rest and trying to write. Until tonight, sleep has won the battle. But I figure I owe it to Mason to document his life at least until he can remember, so here's a pictorial look over the past month or so… details included 🙂 I can't post all the amazing pictures (credit to photo-mom Kelly) so make sure to check out the online gallery.
Actually, I first want to say thank you to all those who made the trek to Ohio and joined us for Mason's dedication. It meant a lot to all of us to have you there and we're really excited to be able to share our relatively new addition with all of you. A special thanks to our parents for all the hard work they put into the weekend. Thank you for being amazing as role models, friends, and just good people. You rock! And maybe we'll have more kids so you can spoil them too… but not soon… definitely not anytime soon.
Now to the pictures…
Bella and Mason were both very excited for the trip to Ohio. Speaking of the trip- I have no photo evidence to support this claim but Mason was an extremely well-behaved baby on all the flights. His only bit of fussiness came when he was hungry and he put the four year old who was screaming the entire flight to shame with his coolness. Good job buddy.
Mason finally got to meet Malloy and Pryce
Jimmy is a natural. I see this being a regular occurrence in the near future…
Great Grandma Mary got her first squeeze with Mason
K & K reunited
Jacquez carved up the turkey on Thanksgiving. This was pretty cool to watch because I remember how excited I was when my dad handed over the carving duties to me as a kid and seeing that look on his face was very cool. I can't wait to hand over the reigns to Mason.
Jack was the original baby and he's not quite ready to relinquish his title.
Grandpa Mac holding his two babies
Mason is ready, coach. You better have a scholarship waiting for him!
Grandma Wright and all the cousins. On a sidenote- Zia (far left) and Malloy (next to her) became fast friends and apparently Zia has been asking when she can take Malloy some pizza soon? I'm not really sure what that means but it's pretty cute.
Grandpa Wright did some digging in the closet and found his old cowboy hat. I'm kinda glad I don't remember his cowboy phase- tight jeans and a huge belt buckle just doesn't seem right on my dad. But Mason really liked the hat.
The apple hat was next. He's ready to drive a cab now.
This probably should have been our Christmas card this year but we were too lazy- oops! Consider the blog an ongoing update on our lives and you can come back and view this wintery picture whenever you like. This was Mason's first time seeing snow and he was bundled up nicely. I, on the other hand, decided that it wasn't "that cold" and wore a thin sweater. Then I got sick the next week. This was not very smart.
Now that's a happy snow baby!
Lisa is due in a couple months so Mason was trying to behave so she doesn't run away when her daughter is 5 months old 😉
Rich showed off his fathering abilities. I told him it's just like holding a football and he was a natural. No fumbles in our households! Also, no spiking the baby.
I don't want to know what Mark was planning with that look on his face. Run Mason!
This does not need any explanation. Clearly the ground is the best place for letting babies crawl all over you.
This is something I thought I'd never see. Considering how much Kathy hates video games and the fact that my grandmother is almost 80 years old, I'd say this is a Thanksgiving miracle. I'm not sure who won (other than Nintendo as a company) but they bowled for a couple hours and beat me with my 20+ years of video gaming experience. I don't want to hear any grief when I buy Mason a game console, Kathy. I have proof that you like it too!!
Warren, Joanie, and Coco made the trip out from Pittsburgh to meet Mason and say hi. You guys should move back to Austin- so much warmer.
I didn't forget about you Evan!
Kelly took this cool shot of Malloy petting Jack. Jack loved the fact that so many people were paying attention to him and also dropping so much food on the ground.
He also liked taking a break from everyone for awhile. This is a clear indication that he has gotten older. I used to let him outside and he would run for the nearest squirrel and would end up three streets away in five minutes. Now he just chills outside. Dear Jack, Please come train Tater on how to be outside without being insane. Thanks, Derrell.
Mason, his parents, and his Godparents after the dedication. Thanks to my dad for performing the ceremony and making it so personal for us all. And thanks to everyone for the blessings and unexpected gifts. Your cards are on the way I promise!
Lila and Anthony came by for the dedication. You two are next!
I think Audrey was trying to steal Mason's hair. Either that or she had a crush on him and the only way she knew how to show it was to grab him. Either way it was a very comical first meeting for the two.
And one with the whole crew…
Chip stopped by and showed Mason how to throw a nasty slider.
Cousins and friends. I was mauled by kids for three days and it was awesome. I'm giving myself the nickname of The Human Jungle Gym or Wrestle-saurus from now on. But I honeslty don't know how they have so much energy. I watched four of them run circles around the couch for an hour. They never broke a sweat and they never asked for water. After two laps I was panting and asking for oxygen. I realize this means that I am totally screwed when Mason starts moving around. I guess I better get in shape.
Four generations of Wright men. The lineage continues…
Undeniable cuteness
I think Kelly was enjoying the fact that Pryce is lighter than Mason.
Wrestle-saurus strikes again!
A few years ago those babies would have been beers and the backdrop would have been a basement with a keg or a bar with an 80's cover band. My how times have changed…
Mason makes Grandpa Mac chuckle
For anyone who doubts my allegiance to the Bears. This hat is clearly from the Zubaz pants era, and the rim has been bent only slightly in the 80's style of hat wearing. I actually warned Mason recently about the treacherous path of seasonal hope and inevitable disappointment that Bears fans walk, but he told me he's okay with that because the reward will be that much greater when they win it all. He also said his other choice was to be a Browns fan and that's not happening for him.
The grandpas love to make him laugh
One for the picture frame
Aunt Danielle with the munchkin
And that wraps up our trip home for Thanksgiving. More pictures and December news to come shortly- I promise.


text: With the awaited rematch between Mary Decker Slaney and Zola Budd a little more than a month away, the word is that Slaney has made up with the South African-born teen-ager. Slaney told Britain's Woman's Own magazine: ''We've made up now, and I don't want Zola, or any other kid, to go through the pain and traumas I had when I was young.'' Backround: Slaney, 26, and Budd, 18, who now runs for Britain, collided in the 3,000-meter run at the Los Angeles Olympics, causing Slaney to fall and injure her hip. At the time, she bitterly blamed Budd for the mishap. Slaney and Budd are scheduled to meet in a 3,000-meter run July 19 at London's Crystal Palace.

Land Rover DC100/DC 100 Sport - Frankfurt Auto Show
Giving the world of off-road aficionados a first admittedly far-from-final look at a vehicle that will go on sale in 2015, the Land Rover DC100 Concept and its DC100 Sport runningmate made their formal debut in Frankfurt. According to Gerry McGovern, Director of Design, Land Rover, neither is a production-ready concept but reflect "the beginning of a four-year journey to design a relevant Defender for the 21st century."
>See more new cars unveiled at the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show
Equally at home on the Serengeti plains and the Australian Outback, as it was on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, the current Defender has aged less gracefully of late compared to rivals like the Toyota Land Cruiser, a fact reflected in dwindling international sales and its flat disappearance from the U.S. market in the late '90s when it failed to keep pace with new safety and emissions regulations. According to McGovern, replacing the roughest and toughest member of the go-anywhere Land Rover lineup stands as "one of the biggest challenges in the automotive design world."
That sentiment is echoed by John Edwards, Global Brand Director, Land Rover. "Loved the world over for its simple, honest and distinctive design, we are determined that the new Defender will be true to its heritage, while meeting the requirements of a changing global market." Edwards says the firm "plans to engage with existing and potential customers to help us finalize the details of the new vehicle."
As for this decidedly dynamic duo, the Land Rover DC100 and open-top DC100 Sport Concepts match far more contemporary styling cues with new forms of focused technology. The former -- intended to demonstrate capability and versatility -- and the latter -- which hones in on freedom and leisure - have a common 100.0 inch wheelbase. Also shared are trick features like Terrain-i scanning that warns of off-road obstacles and Wade Aid sonar that can assess water depth before you're in too deep as well a the latest iteration of Land Rover's advanced Terrain Response System.
According to Kim McCullough, Brand Vice President, Land Rover North America, no decision has been made as to whether this next-generation Defender will return to our shores.

Eclipse really wants to create a project directory to hold its metadata. However, there's nothing that stops you from having a folder "within" a project but located outside of it.
File -> New Project
File -> New Folder, click "Advanced" and select "Link to folder in the file system".
I'd suggest you avoid linking folders that exist as subdirectories of your workspace directory. Linking something that's a subdirectory of a workspace directory will lead to a world of pain and resources being out of sync.
That is, create a project MyProject in /workspace/MyProject, but make sure foo-0.x.0 is in ~/foo or somewhere else not under /workspace.
However, if the folder is shared (from the server), it has to locate one level up, or else the "import" will fail.

Leading defective product lawyer Jill Paterson has welcomed the introduction of a central register of electrical appliances, UK Recall, by the Retail Ombudsman.
Ms Paterson, who acts for many families who have experienced injury and loss in house fires, caused by faulty kitchen appliances, said, "registering an electrical appliance with the Retail Ombudsman could help to save lives".
Domestic electrical appliances are one of the most common causes of house fires, the most recent figures released by the Government show that nearly 1000 house fires were caused by tumble dryers in 2013 – 2014, while dishwashers, fridges and freezers also caused hundreds of fires.
Registering an appliance with UK Recall means that consumers will be alerted as soon as the manufacturer of a potentially dangerous appliance issues a safety notice or recall.
A number of organisations have recently called for action to improve the recall system in the UK which currently leaves many consumers in ignorance if their appliances are recalled.
The Local Government association has called on manufacturers to recall faulty tumble dryers which are causing three fires a day in Great Britain.
Many manufacturers are running extensive repair programmes rather than recalling dangerous models leaving consumers frustrated at the lack of progress, or even unaware that their kitchen appliances could be potential fire hazards.
One of a number of recommendations by consumer campaigner Lynn Faulds Wood in her Independent Recall Review was the creation of an official national product safety agency and product safety website.
Consumers can register all their electrical appliances on UK Recall by following simple instructions on the website. Consumers will also be able to search a database of recalls.
Fire appliance lawyer Jill Paterson said:
"While the Government response to the Independent Recall Review published by Lynn Faulds Wood earlier this year has been somewhat lukewarm, it is encouraging that the Retail Ombudsman is looking to protect consumers by making it easy to register appliance purchases with UK Recall.
"Many of my clients who have suffered devastating house fires were unaware that their appliances had been recalled, or had safety notices issued about them.
"Any system that disseminates recall information directly to consumers can only be welcomed."

We've been to Edinburgh before, but never up Calton Hill with it's fantastic views of the Castle, Arthur's Seat - and the Firth of Forth. And once you've had a picnic there's the memorials. The Parthenon copy (still with scaffolding!) was a war memorial to fallen soldiers at Waterloo and the construction that led to the city being dubbed "the Athens of the North". This post is from Nicola Baird
Scotland is proud of its war contribution (even if colonisation has been air brushed out of history up at its national museum), with memorials of generals and "the fallen" in all the best places.
Up at Edinburgh Castle there's Ensign Ewart's marble block which marks the "lucky" solider who grabbed the French eagle for our forces. Impressive as this was the memorial didn't go up until 1938. But it did spawn 1,000 demands for large golden mirrors encircled by a cowed eagle - something still very on trend. There were two in the appartment we borrowed!
War still seems very distant even if there's never yet been a whole day of peace in the world I've lived in. See more about how to resolve this at War Child here. Meanwhile Lola is learning about the second World War and perhaps understanding how the first World War carnage (from 1914-1918) helped lead nations into another six years of war in 1939.
<<>Mervyn James Hamilton, a soldier who died in November 1914 from his wounds. Phoebe (we know her as Gebe and Lola was old enough to have several Christmases with her and also went to her funeral) never knew her dad. She was yet another generation raised by single mothers.
<< href="http://www.gordonhighlanders.com/">Gordon Highlanders at Scotland's National War Memorial, within the grounds of Edinburgh Castle, see more here. I don't think we were meant to take pictures, so many apologies.
Nell had a good word for war memorabilia: on a sunny day the cannons provide the best seat for views across to the Firth of Forth and beyond...

These are just some of the questions that I have received. I decided to post my answers in this article.

How did the Israelites dress in the Wilderness, when Deuteronomy 22:5 was written?
There are a lot of myths surrounding the way that the Israelites dressed when Deu. 22:5 was written. My experience is that most people assume that the Israelites wore robes. Many seminary graduates and authors of non-scholarly commentaries (I.e., study Bibles, devotional commentaries, etc) will also refer to the Israelites wearing robes.
But what did the Israelites really wear? In this article we will discuss what they wore in Egypt and what they were during the Exodus.
A Spontaneous Post About "The Bible Days"
Growing up in the Apostolic movement I often heard talk about what people did "in Bible times." I've always loved history, so I loved to hear about what people did back then. It was not until I got older and started studying biblical history that I realized a fact that many seem to forget: "Bible times" covers approximately 4,000 years of history. Furthermore, it isn't just Jewish history that is covered. In the Bible you have Canaanites, Mideonites, Romans, Assyrians, Babylonians, and a host of others. Jewish history alone covers about 1,600 years (if you start counting at Moses and stop at Revelation) or more if you start counting at Abraham…
The Nature of Truth
John 18:37-38 KJV
"Pilate said to Him, 'So You are a king?' Jesus answered, 'You say correctly that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice. Pilate said to Him, 'What is truth?'"
If you used to be in the UPC then let me ask you, How many times have you heard someone say that they are thankful "for the Truth"? Or perhaps they said that they were thankful that God revealed "the Truth" to them. Or maybe they talked about how anointed a non-UPC singer or minister was, and then they said that it was a shame that the person they were talking about "did not have the Truth…"
I Am Apostolic
Last Friday night I went to the final service for the UPC National Youth Congress 2007, held in Charlotte, NC. The worship leader who started the service got everyone "fired up" by telling the story of a conversation he had with a Muslim friend. He said that the Muslim friend asked him why all of the UPC women had long hair. His answer to his Muslim friend was, "Because we're Christian!!" Of course he also told his Muslim friend that he believed in just one God, not in the Trinity! (The implication being that everyone who believes in the Trinity believes in three gods; belief in three gods is actually tritheism–a belief held by the Mormons–, not Trinitarianism, but that's a discussion for a different article.)
So, that happened last Friday night. Then on Monday or Tuesday night I got in a long discussion with a Mormon. It was a very one-sided discussion since he didn't give me a chance to talk. He just sat there and talked over me and just kept raising his voice when I tried to say anything. Interestingly enough, the Mormon gentleman also claimed to have "apostolic" doctrine. He claimed to believe what the apostles really taught. I'm not comparing the UPC to Mormonism, I'm only pointing out that quite a few groups with very different doctrines all claim to believe what the apostles really taught.
So where does this leave me? It leaves me with the belief that I am apostolic. The reason? I believe what the apostles taught. It's really quite simple. It only becomes complicated when people try to come up with "new" revelations or new ideas that convince them and their followers that they alone really have truth and that everyone else is part of the "great falling away"…
When is Truth no longer true?
Have you ever seen a house built out of cards? They're amazing! I did a Google search to try to find a picture of one, and I found the Web site of the guy who holds the world record in building card houses. His record? Over 25 feet high. The thing is, I think the UPC's record beats his by a few hundred feet. Why? Because the UPC's theology is nothing more than a house built out of cards…
The loss of our heroes
It seems that the hardest problem for people to face when they leave the UPC is the one of figuring out what they believe and who they can trust. I know it's an issue that I faced, and from the forums that I have participated in and the discussions that I have been a part of I know that others have faced it well.
Today I was thinking about this and it struck me that if a person was raised in the UPC (as I was) then their greatest heroes are generally people in the UPC. My heroes were certain preachers who I saw as being full of wisdom and compassion, godliness and grace, mercy and anointing. These were the men that I aspired to be like more than anything else in the world. I wanted to have the tenacity that they had to "hold on to Truth." I wanted to have the anointing that they did and affect people in the same ways that they affected people…
Why study?
One of the issues that pops up over and over again when people leave the UPC is the issue of trust. I was reminded of this again this evening as I was talking with my family about some of the reasons that I left the UPC. As we were talking, my sister-in-law stopped us to ask a question; she wanted to know why all of the study is necessary. She wanted to know why a person can't just read the Bible and be saved. She and my mother even hinted that all of my Bible study might be getting me into trouble with God.
The first thing to understand when answering that question is that the Bible is designed so that anyone can pick it up, read it, and be saved. At the same time, the Bible is an incredibly deep book…
Why is questioning so bad?
I have a question. Why is it considered so bad to question doctrine in the UPC (and associated organizations)? I don't think that I have ever heard a preacher get up and say that it is wrong to question doctrine, but I spent over 26 years in the UPC, and the impression that I always had is that it is a horrible sin to question doctrine.
Of course, some doctrines are worse to question than others (according to the typical UPC preacher). The doctrine that is #1 on the list of taboo'd doctrines is the doctrine of the Oneness of God. Other ones are high on the list as well, such as baptism in Jesus' Name, speaking in tongues as the evidence of receiving the Holy Ghost, and more.
But aren't we commanded in the Scriptures to question what we are taught?…

Introduction (Misinterpreted Scriptures)
There are many Scriptures that are misinterpreted by Oneness Pentecostals. I have decided to create a list of the most common ones on this page. Some of these Scriptures are misinterpreted by most, if not all, Christians, but most of the Scriptures on this page are misinterpreted mostly by Oneness Pentecostals.
My breakdown of these Scriptures will follow this format: I will give the Scripture, then give the common misinterpretation, and then explain the correct meaning of the Scripture…
2 Samuel 6:14 (Misinterpreted Scriptures)
2 Samuel 6:14 KJV
Misinterpretation: This Scripture is often used to tell people that there is something wrong with their spiritual life (usually pride) if they do not dance during worship.
Facts: There is nothing wrong with dancing in worship. As a matter of fact, dancing as a form of worship to the true God has a long, long heritage. It dates at least back to the Israelite exodus from Egypt, when Miriam, the sister of Moses, led some of the women of Israel in dance (Ex. 15:20). However, just because David danced does not mean that people have to dance…
2 Chronicles 7:14 (Misinterpreted Scriptures)
2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV
Misinterpretation: Some in the UPC say that the people "called by God's Name" are Oneness Pentecostals (because they believe in baptism in Jesus' Name).
Facts: This Scripture was written at least 400-500 years before Christ, and the event that it was recording was the dedication of Solomon's Temple, which happened almost 1,000 years before Christ! The promise in 2 Chr. 7:14 was to the Jews, not to Oneness Pentecostals, or even to Christians in general. Of course, I do believe that the forgiveness of sins is a Biblical concept, and this Scripture is certainly a beautiful illustration of that! However, it is a mistake to say that this Scripture is talking directly to anyone but the Israelites.
Isaiah 47:2 (Misinterpreted Scriptures)
Isaiah 47:2 KJV
Misinterpretation: The UPC often uses this Scripture to try to prove that it is wrong for men to wear shorts or for women to wear skirts above the knee.
Facts: If this Scripture is teaching that men cannot wear shorts then it is also teaching that women cannot remove their veils. Let's take a closer look at the Scripture to see what I mean…

August 18, 2016 – Pictures: Man Who Poured Otapiapia, Sniper Poison Into Woman's Soup In Ajegunle Lagos Confesses, Says Her Husband Insulted Him
A wicked man who allegedly poisoned a family soup in Ajegunle area of Lagos has confessed.
The suspect identified as Gordon Daniel reportedly told the police he added a bottle of Otapiapia (Sniper) into the pot of soup belonging to a family of three to take revenge on the head of the family for insulting him last year.
According to Daily Sun, the suspect reportedly poured the poison into the soup on Baale Aiyetoro Street when the woman had gone to buy salt.
The suspect was caught after the women smelled offensive aroma from her soup immediately she returned.
She reportedly notified her landlady who swung into action immediately by arresting the only co-tenant.
Gordon Daniel was taken to the traditional ruler in charge of the area before he was handed over to the police.
During interrogation, the suspect blamed the devil for his evil act.
In his words:
"The devil pushed me to do it. I doused the soup with sniper insecticide so as to deal with the family. The husband insulted me last time because of the electricity bill. He called me a poor man; the devil pushed me to do it. I am sorry."
His case has been transferred to SCID Panti for prosecution.

TreeHugger Picks: Print Mags We're Reading
Awhile back, we posted on what books the TH team was reading (hint: there's another similar post coming soon!) and have picked a few "TreeHugger Bibles" that are required reading for all TreeHuggers at some point, but we like to keep our eyes on the print magazine scene, too. They help us track green trends in the lifestyle, design & science fields, and offer a good litmus test for mainstream media's take on green; every now and then, we get to help out, like with the latest issue of domino magazine. Here are some of our favorite mags that get regular coverage here on TreeHugger.
1) Dwell magazine offers a different, usually greener, take on architecture.
2) House & Garden concentrates on "design for the well-lived life," and we've enjoyed seeing that design get a little greener lately (for a blog full of green design for the well-lived life, check out TreeHugger's blog at their website).
3) Mags like I.D., Wallpaper* and Surface focus more on design and less on lifestyle, and are great places for cool-hunting and the combination of good design & green design.
4) The UK-based Sublime offers a unique take as "the world's first international ethical lifestyle magazine."
5) Sierra magazine and E Magazine offer a green look at the world from all angles, from the activism of the Sierra Club to green trends, news and views galore from E.

Planning permission was granted in 2015 for two Norvento nED100 wind turbines and they were erected in 2016. The two turbines are located on the seaward side of the Outer Lay-by Terminal off Basin Road South.
The turbines are on average capable of producing annually 555,000 kWh of electricity, matching the energy demand of the Port's pump house that they are connected to. Wind energy forms part of the Port's wider energy strategy, of which solar power is already playing an important role.
Why does Shoreham Port want to install wind turbines?
Wind energy has the potential to play a significant role in transforming Shoreham Port into a recognised centre of excellence for renewable energy generation to meet its own power needs and those of the local community.
Are wind turbines efficient and reliable energy providers?
Wind turbines are able to generate electricity by using the power of the wind; a free, natural resource. The speed and direction of the wind varies constantly, meaning that there are times when turbines are able to generate at or close to their maximum capacity and there are also times when turbines may not generate anything. Inevitably they generally operate somewhere between the two extremes, but on an annual basis it is possible to make a reasonable prediction of the anticipated generation that will be achieved.
Even though wind speed can be variable, a modern wind turbine is able to produce electricity 70-85% of the time, generating different levels of power dependent on wind speed. Inevitably there are times when wind speed is insufficient to allow generation to take place (plus a small amount of down time for maintenance), but over the course of a year, it will generate about 30% of the theoretical maximum output. This is known as its load factor. The load factor of conventional power stations is on average 50%.
The key point here is that the fuel source being used (wind) is natural and free. Operation of the turbines will not generate harmful environmental emissions, unlike the operation of conventional power stations using fossil fuels.
Why are the turbines where there are?
The turbines will be feeding power to the Pump House located on the southern side of the locks. It is therefore essential that they are situated within close proximity to this building, whilst not impacting on the movement of vehicles and goods within the Port, or presenting other operational or safety hazards. In addition, consideration has been given to maximising the distance of the turbine from residential properties located to the north of the A259 (Albion Street).
With these factors in mind, the turbines have been located at the top of the revetment, adjacent to the access way running along the southern boundary fence of the Outer Layby Terminal close to the Pump House.
How big are the wind turbines?
The wind turbines are nED100 turbines manufactured by Norvento. The turbines consist of a tubular tower 24.5m high and a three bladed rotor with a diameter of 22m. The tip height is therefore 35.5m. To put this into perspective, the lighting towers used throughout the Port are 30m in height and the chimney stack at Shoreham Power Station has a height of 106m. In comparison, the turbine on the Glyndebourne Estate has a tip height of 67m.
What impact will turbines have on energy consumption at the Pump House?
The Pump House is essential to the operation of the port. Daily use of the locks results in water being lost back to the sea and water levels in the basin being reduced. It is therefore essential for water to be pumped back into the basin, a function which is undertaken by the Pump House.
The annual electricity consumption at the Pump House is 475,000kWh. It is predicted that the two turbines will on average generate a total of 555,000kWh per year.
The level of turbine generation is therefore well matched to the power requirements of the Pump House and it is expected that annual generation will slightly exceed the equivalent power requirement.
What happens when too much or too little electricity is being generated by the turbines?
Power requirements at the Pump House vary by time of day and time of year. Whilst there is a good base load electricity requirement, the pumps are not running continuously since it is more efficient for the pumps to operate either side of high tide. Also, internal and external lighting is in operation for longer during winter than during summer.
All of these issues, along with the variability of wind, are likely to lead to periods when more electricity is being demanded than is being generated by the turbines. The opposite is also likely to occur at times, where the turbines are able to generate more electricity than is being used.
Since the turbine power generation is being directly connected to the Pump House supply, this will allow additional electricity to be taken seamlessly from the grid supply to make up any short fall in availability. Conversely, this also allows the excess generation to be fed back into the grid where it can be sold to the supply company and used by others.
How long do wind turbines last?
The Norvento turbines have a design life of 20 years, but it is not unusual for turbines that are well maintained to operate effectively for 25 years.
Are wind turbines noisy?
Wind turbines are mechanical and do generate noise when operational, although the evolution of wind turbine technology over the past decade has reduced this noise considerably. The turbines being installed are very modern in design and the technology being employed allows sound generation to be minimised.
There are strict guidelines that govern wind turbines and noise emissions to ensure the protection of residential amenity. Sound monitoring will be undertaken to ensure the turbines operate within these guidelines.
How long does it take for a turbine to 'pay back' the energy used to manufacture it?
The comparison of energy used in manufacture with the energy produced by a power station is known as the 'energy balance'. It can be expressed in terms of energy 'pay back' time, which is the time needed to generate the equivalent amount of energy used in constructing the wind turbine or power station.
The average wind turbine in the UK will pay back the energy used in its construction within three to five months, this compares favourably with coal or nuclear power stations, which take about six months.
Why not use other sources of renewable energy?
Shoreham Port does use additional sources of renewable energy. At the moment this takes the form of solar PV panels mounted on the roof of several buildings such as Hove Enterprise Centre Shed 3a and Shed 10 on Brighton Terminal, with plans for further installations in the future. In each case, the power is used as much as possible to meet local electricity requirements. With the Pump House having such a high electricity demand 24 hours per day, the use of wind generation is better suited to meet the needs of the Pump House, especially in mid-winter when daylight hours are short.
Shoreham Port have been investigating renewable energy generation for a number of years and are committed to expanding the use of embedded renewable energy projects where it can be demonstrated they can play a vital part in the sustainability of the port, including the possibility of water source heat pumps and district heating as well as further solar PV and wind turbine installations.
Can Shoreham Port take other measures to reduce its impact on the environment?
Shoreham Port has a long-term environmental and sustainability plan and has been taking action to reduce the impact of the Port on the environment for many years.
Shoreham Port endorses the principles of the European Sea Ports Organisation's (ESPO) Environmental Policy Code of Practice and has attained the ECOPORTS Port Environmental Review System (PERS) standard (June 2013). The Port's Environmental Management System documentation is audited by Lloyds Register every two years, the last one being in May 2015.
Existing and proposed environmental measures include lower carbon emission from mobile plant and cranes, a green travel plan for staff and visitors, replacing lighting with LED and embracing both local and national green initiatives, monitoring air and water quality and when identified implementing control measures that endorse environmental ethics. Renewable energy generation projects form just one element within this long-term plan, albeit an important one.

While libraries struggle to remain relevant in the face of instant information available on the Internet, even if you're not a book borrower or researcher, the downtown main branch of the Cleveland Public Library can be a nice place to visit. It is part of The Mall (on the southern end), and is located on Superior Avenue and East 3rd. The complex consists of the historic Main Library, the Louis Stokes Wing, and the Eastman Reading Garden that is situated between the two buildings.
The Cleveland library system itself was founded in 1869 as a school district library. Over the years, it outgrew its space, and with the visionary plan of the Mall complex in the early 1900s, it was decided that location would be favorable for a newer, larger library. The Main Library was built in the Classical Revival style, designed by the firm of Walker and Weeks, and it was opened in 1923. The adjacent Louis Stokes Building, opened in 1997, is named for Cleveland native Louis Stokes, who, in 1968, became the first African-American elected to the U.S. Congress from Ohio. Both buildings occupy nearly 530,000 square feet of space.
If you are looking for a place to visit for some peace and quiet, and maybe to broaden your mind in the progress, take a trip to the main branch of the Cleveland Public Library. It's priceless.

A sizeable slice of education funding has made new nursery provision at a South Tyneside school a piece of cake.
Up to 78 youngsters can now enjoy early years learning at Cleadon Church of England Academy after it opened its new £500,000 nursery building.
Bosses at the school, in Boldon Lane, Cleadon, secured the grant after identifying a demand for places from parents of three and four-year-olds living locally.
The development also fits with government plans nationally to double weekly nursery provision, so that parents can better access employment opportunities.
Teachers marked its opening with a visit from the Right Reverend Paul Butler, the Bishop of Durham, who cut a home-made cake in celebration. School principal Jayn Gray said: "Our nursery is a fantastic facility, and I'm delighted that it has opened.
"We applied for £500,000 of funding and we got what we asked for – we were very fortunate.
"We had carried out a consultation and so we knew that there was a significant demand from parents for a nursery at our school.
"Our application for funding also coincided with the government's plans to extend free nursery care from 15 to 30 hours-a-week."
Mrs Gray added: "We have 78 places available and are almost full, which is a great start.
"One of our members of staff made a cake and the Bishop of Durham cut it in celebration.
"I think that was the bit about the official opening that the children liked best."
Money came from the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA), one of the government's main education funding bodies.
The 420-pupil school was one of only 286 from almost 4,000 across the country awarded a grant for new building work. The nursery was built by Newcastle construction firm Northern Bear, which began work in May.
An open day is being held from 10am to 2pm on Saturday, November 4, for parents wishing to view the nursery.
Applications are also being taken for the September 2018 term.
More information is available by calling 0191 536 7813 or by emailing email@example.com.

The Hard Tackle takes a look at the most important Arsenal news that have been making the rounds.
Former Manchester United and current Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo has recently stated that he thinks Jose Mourinho is one of the deepest thinkers in football. He also named Ashley Cole as the toughest player he's played against.
With the January transfer window not far away, Ashley Cole's future remains uncertain
Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has agreed to put aside the difference and play in a UNICEF charity game. The Manchester United defender and John Terry, Ashley Cole had become sworn enemies during the criminal trial that ran after Terry was accused of racially abusing Ferdinand's brother Anton.
England manager Roy Hodgson has cited the development of Manchester United defenders Chris Smalling and Luke Shaw as a major satisfaction of his side's successful Euro 2016 qualifying campaign.
Raheem Sterling scored within three minutes of his debut, as his team were twice pegged back by brilliant AS Roma goals, only for the Premier League club to win it on penalties courtesy of Joe Hart's heroics.
Defence is the biggest area of concern for Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal at the moment and the club has planned a double swoop for Ashley Cole and Benedikt Howedes in the January transfer window.
Chelsea FC manager Jose Mourinho has revealed that both Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole were offered new contracts before they were released.
Chelsea have reportedly begun talks with Sporting Lisbon, over a summer move for Liverpool target Marcos Rojo.
The Englishman tweeted yesterday of saying goodbye to Stamford Bridge

Update: I had some cake the morning after (it had been in the fridge over night) and it's even better half a day later and cold. The cake is still dense and moist (but not heavy) however the cinammon and chili have enhanced – not overpowering but nicely warming against cold cake. YUM!! 🙂
I don't really have much of a sweet tooth and while I do adore the taste of chocolate, I'm no fiend and I rarely crave it. Although, chocolate and peanut butter OR chocolate and chili are good ways to get on my good side! :-p
However, lately I have felt the urge to bake, but the question was always WHAT? because I really don't like sugar all that much. With the coming of Halloween I decided whatever I baked had to be a little twisted. So I came up with the following cake, and while baking is precise, as always, this recipe is robust enough for tweaking. Despite what I write below… I definitely "tweaked." Mainly because I chose to halve (very roughly – as I had to deal with trying to convert from weight measurements to cups) an existing recipe and relied a lot on "eye-balling" to guess as to whether it was the right proportions. I also added the chili and cinnamon elements at will. Ah well… it turned out pretty well and that's what counts!
For the cake (to make a small cake)
1.25 cups plain flour
3/4 cup caster sugar (can add more if you prefer it sweeter)
2.75 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
0.5 cup milk
Glug of vegetable oil (maybe 2-3 tablespoons… I just did a quick pour)
1 vanilla pod
0.5 cup boiling water
1 egg
paprika, chili powder, cinnamon powder
How to do it…
Basically this is is the easiest cake recipe ever. Mix all the ingredients listed together in one bowl up until the vanilla pod. Make sure the batter is starting to form (it will still be quite dry / doughy) at this stage. Then pour in the boiled water. Now your mixture is quite liquidy. That's fine – it's what makes this cake so moist. Taste. If you want add more sugar or cocoa. Then add in most of the seeds from the vanilla pod (reserve some for your icing) and the cinnamon, paprika and chili powder (more cinnamon than chili – but it should be to your taste). Taste and adjust if need be. Then crack in the egg. Stir. Pour the mixture into a greased pan and bake for about 20 mins in a medium oven. Once the top is no longer goopy and you put a knife or toothpick in cleanly through the cake it's done. Mine cooked in twenty minutes. Leave aside to cool and focus on the icing now.
For the icing
100 grams softened unsalted butter
chili chocolate
icing sugar
How to do it…
Cream (mix) the softened butter with some cinnamon powder and a little paprika + chili. Add the remaining vanilla seeds. Slowly sift in icing sugar until you get your desired texture and taste. Then add in 2.5 tablespoons of melted chili chocolate. Add a bit more icing sugar if you need it for texture.
Once the cake is cooled, ice it! I also topped with hazelnuts… but the sky is the limit for cake decorating. (sadly that is not my forte)
Enjoy x

The Duke of York has issued a rare statement denying reports about his intervention in his daughters' futures
(photo by By Northern Ireland Office - https://www.flickr.com/photos/niogovuk/14649728080/, CC BY 2.0, Link)
The Duke of York is not happy and he has made that very clear. The second son of the Queen has issued an unprecedented statement denying a rift with his brother and rumours that he had asked that the future husbands of his daughters be given titles. In a firm statement, published via his Twitter account, Prince Andrew said that he cannot continue to stand by and have the media speculate on the futures of Beatrice and Eugenie. Dads and daughters.
The Duke of York's statement
The statement was released on December 9th 2016 in a tweet signed AY, the personal motif that shows the Duke of York is himself responsible for the message. In the statement linked to the tweet, Andrew began by referring to a 'number of stories' that 'have no basis in fact' before going on to detail them and strongly deny them.
December 9, 2016
One of the issues to which he refers has been in the news in recent days after Princess Eugenie was spotted with a ring on her engagement finger. Amidst all the speculation (denied) that she is about to announce marriage plans with long time boyfriend, Jack Brooksbank, were reports that Andrew wanted anyone who said 'I do' to one of his daughters to become an earl. In this statement, the Duke of York says that is a 'complete fabrication'.
He also addresses another set of rumours that have been circulating for several weeks, namely that he is involved in a row with his brother, the Prince of Wales, over whether Beatrice and Eugenie should become full time royals. The reports had suggested that Andrew wanted them to take on higher royal profiles while Charles was keen to keep the duties confined to a nucleus based around his own family. Again, there are firm denials with the statement saying that 'there is no truth that there could be a split between the Prince of Wales and I over my daughters' participation as Members of the Royal Family' and adds 'any continued speculation is pointless'.
"We're ready!" 😊 Great to hear from our enthusiastic Patrons about working to support young with cancer pic.twitter.com/qyYTTRwUAv— Teenage Cancer Trust (@TeenageCancer) December 9, 2016
His statement came just hours after Beatrice and Eugenie joined their mother at the University College Hospital to meet young cancer patients as part of their role as patrons of the Teenage Cancer Trust. Andrew says that all he wants for his daughters is that they be 'modern young working women'. He finishes by saying that while he understands there will be interest in the princesses, as granddaughters of the Queen, he 'cannot continue to stand by and have the media speculate on their futures, based on my purported interventions, which are completely made up and an invention'.
They are strong words from the sixth in line to the throne and leave no doubt as to his position on the two issues. It is interesting to see such a personal statement released, just weeks after Prince Harry sent out his own unprecedented release calling for Meghan Markle to be left alone and confirming they were in a relationship. The two forthright interventions have certainly made clear how these two second sons feel but how the statements are received is less in the control of the royals. Andrew has set out his stall but has he marched into a media storm?
What do you think? Should Andrew have issued the statement or let the storm blow over?
What do you think? Should Andrew have issued the statement or let the storm blow over?

Today may finally be the day that the Nexus 5 is introduced with Android 4.4 KitKat in tow, but it turns out that this fine Thursday is big for another member of the Nexus family as well. Sprint has announced that its version of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus will begin receiving its update to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean today, Oct. 31. The update will bump the Sprint Galaxy Nexus up to software version GJ04 and will be pushed over the air to users during a 10-21 day period.
The only item on Sprint's changelog for the GJ04 update is an update to Android 4.3, so for now it's unclear what other goodies this bundle of software might contain. An update to Android 4.3 is pretty exciting on its own, though, and it's good to see Sprint bumping its Galaxy Nexus up to the new version of Jelly Bean and giving its owners something to get excited about today. If you've got a Sprint Galaxy Nexus that you call your daily driver, be sure to keep an eye out for the fresh Jelly Beans that ought to be making their way to you soon.

There's nothing much to eat within Vatican City save for a small cafe at the Vatican Museum, and so if you're hungry after all that walking and sight-seeing there's Risorgimento Caffe nearby just outside the walls of the Vatican. It is situated across Piazza Risorgimento and along Via di Porta Angelica, and if it's around noon or so you would be admiring the awesomely long line of tourists and locals as they wait for their turn to view the Vatican Museum.
Risorgimento Caffe no doubt looks like another one of those tourist haunts, and judging by the number of non-locals, it probably is. Not that it matters much for hungry people like us, since all we wanted was to rest our feet, slurp on our ice-cold coke and rest our feet. And oh, just in case you're wondering, it's not really a "self-service restaurant" as the picture seems to suggest, I have entirely no idea why they even put that up since they have waiters and waitresses going around.
Tagliatelle ai Frutti di Mare
If you like your pasta thick and chewy, the (house-made) tagliatelle here is just that. It's a nice, refreshing change from the al dente type of pasta that I've been eating, and the seafood ingredients (shellfish, squids, cuttelfish and a couple of large prawns) were very fresh too. Not too bad, though some would rightly point out that this is not the actual shape for tagliatelle pasta. I did have awesome tagliatelle in Florence, but that's for another post for another day :)
And if you're wondering, yes, I like my pasta with seafood :)
Tris di Primi Piatti
For those who can't quite make up their mind on what to eat, or simply want a bit of everything, this could be an interesting choice for you. It's a mix of lasagne, ravioli, bacon and amatriciana (tomato) spaghetti. The friend said it was alright.
Smooth tiramisu with alcohol-soaked saviordi. Yums.
Fair. Pretty emotionless to be honest.
€12.50 for the tagliatelle frutti di mare
€9.90 for the tris di primi piatti
€6.90 for the tiramisu
€3.50 for a can of coke

Surfers join fight against toll road
SAN CLEMENTE 16-mile highway would end near surfing's 'Yosemite'
Two California icons - surfing and traffic - are colliding as state officials consider a toll road that would cut through a beachfront park that is home to one of the world's best surf breaks.
The prospect of 16 miles of asphalt ending near Trestles, the "Yosemite of Surfing," has galvanized surfers and environmentalists. They argue that the project would wipe out endangered species, ruin one of the state's most beloved parks and block the sediment deposits that create the world-class waves.
Proponents, including weary commuters, say the $875 million project will end crushing gridlock on Interstate 5 between Orange County and San Diego, where more than 125,000 cars pass each day. Studies commissioned by the Transportation Corridor Agencies, which finances and builds Orange County's toll roads, estimate that by 2025 a 16-mile drive on the freeway will take an hour.
Last month, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and state Treasurer Bill Lockyer weighed in, with the governor in favor of the road and Lockyer opposed.
Yet those on both sides see something more than a fight over a few lanes of pavement in the spiraling debate, which has attracted more than 500 video postings on YouTube and dozens of pro- and anti-toll road Web sites, protests, statehouse rallies and blogs.
"We in California are confronting a very important moment and that is, 'How do we solve our infrastructure needs?' " said Elizabeth Goldstein, president of the California State Parks Foundation. "Are we just going to elbow parks out of the way, or are we going to treat them as the treasured resources they are?"
The California Coastal Commission votes today on whether the proposal meets federal Coastal Zone Management Act standards - a requirement for it to move forward. The commission is expecting so many people that it moved the meeting to a 3,000-seat fairgrounds in San Diego.
A staff report prepared for the commissioners last year said that "it would be difficult to imagine a more environmentally damaging ... location" for the road.
The Transportation Corridor Agencies published a rebuttal report and offered a $100 million contribution to the state parks system as part of the deal.
"We have to base our decisions on sound science. and the other side bases theirs on emotion," said Lance MacLean, chairman of the Foothill Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency. "They're not having to prove their point ... and it's kind of hard to fight that."
Environmentalists say the toll road would destroy habitat for some threatened or endangered species, including the Pacific pocket mouse and the arroyo toad.
They also say it will cut 161 camp sites and create a concrete eyesore in the middle of 2,100-acre San Onofre State Beach, which stretches from the coastal bluffs to the dry interior canyons. San Onofre is the state's fifth-most popular park, attracting 2 1/2 million visitors a year.
Surfers worry that the road will block sandy runoff from the San Mateo Creek watershed. They believe this sediment builds up underwater and creates the wave breaks that earn Trestles one of 12 coveted spots on the surfing World Championship Tour.
Transportation officials counter that the road's alignment was tweaked to avoid sensitive habitat and would not affect Trestles. The group hired independent scientists, who concluded that sediment deposits offshore would remain unchanged, said MacLean, who is also a Mission Viejo city councilman.
"We've done the science behind this," he said. "The last thing I want on my tombstone when I die is, 'This is the guy who built the project that destroyed Trestles.' "
MacLean said the alternative - a widening of Interstate 5 - would mean the destruction of more than 1,200 homes and businesses in a booming region set to add 14,000 homes over 25 years.
"There's a human factor here that you have to take into account," MacLean said. "Who's protecting the residents and the businesses and the citizens, instead of the pocket mouse?"

SBF received a newsletter from the Inland Empire Chapter of the Antique and Clasic Boat Society, Post Falls Idaho. Their yet to be named newsletter contained an invitation (10:00 AM Sat.24th of March 2001) from Rann Haight, the builder, inviting members to the launching of Elsie May at Lake Coeur d'Alene (3rd Street Boat Ramps). The vessel is a 26ft. "adaptation of the Hammond Power Dory shown in John Gardner's book 'More Building Classic Small Craft' (sic). Haight continues: It is a pure displacement hull that takes very little power to attain hull speed...It's work boat origins result in a seaworthy shape that ignors the chop...It's proportions and strong sheer line makes an elegant open launch...It is safe to say this boat will be the first of its kind to float anywhere in the last seven decades" (!!!) The Specs: LOA 26 ft., WL 21 ft., Beam 6 ft., Draft 2 ft., Disp. 2500 lbs., Power 10 h.p. Saab Diesel, Hull Douglas Fire plywood over Mahogany frames. If after the launcing pics are sent to SBF we will post a few to this Forum.

The Auto Flusher: A Moment in {UN}Schooling
I always knew J7 was going to be a little more independent and a little more challenging to homeschool. He always has a plan. Early on I thought it was a toddler thing, but as he's grown the challenge continues. He is always thinking about his next big invention or idea. He's not necessarily trying to be difficult. He's simply entrenched in his busy, thinking world. This is a kid who told me straight out, "Mommy, this is AMERICA. I can do math the way I want!"- when I told him he ought to align his math problem a little differently. He wants to have a go on his own even if it means having to back track. Most of the time though, things turn out just fine and he's learned extra things along the way.
Now that he's in second grade, I've learned a trick or two in working with this fierce independence. I try to remember that he doesn't always have to do things my way. Academically speaking this is very true and it does carry over to other areas of life if we aren't talking about items of safety. There are non-negotiables. However, most of the time I try to give J7 choices along the way and to choose the "mountains I will die on" very carefully.
Such was the case one day about a month or so ago when I could see J7 needed a break from the ordinary (if a typical school day here could be called ordinary). I knew he'd be engaged in a project if I gave him permission to go and invent. And that's just what I did.
I gave him some parameters this time (though not always) - I told him to get to know our home LEGO NEXT kit and to go and invent something cool and show it to me. I reminded him of the available resources as I let him loose for the afternoon. That was it. The rest was up to him.
He ended up making an automatic toilet flusher like the ones in public restrooms. The ones that always seem to flush too soon and strike fear into the hearts of small children the world over. Dan had been preparing some videos to share at a First LEGO League (FLL) event and found one with a flusher. He showed it to the kids briefly- all of a couple minutes. J7 recalled the video and set out to make his own- with no instruction.
The results are in the video below. It's only a few minutes long and worth the time to see his brain in action! It's not a very elegant robot, but the programming is right on the mark. Listen carefully as the ultrasonic sensor waits 15 seconds after J7 gets up to say thank you and move the motor arm. And his use of the word, "basically".
The amazing part is that he figured out how to use the ultrasonic sensor and program the wait blocks with the NXT software so that it would sense the movement and then wait before saying thank you and moving the motor. Pretty slick for age 7. He is so ready for First LEGO League!
Channeling this boy's energy takes a lot of time. I'm excited to learn more about Project Based Homeschooling so that I can record and help him to record all this crazy learning he does. I bought the Kindle version and I've been pouring through it. I am happy to report we do a lot of this in our homeschool already, but it's been exciting to learn more about facilitating all this stuff and how to record it well.

Heather this is really great. I follow but do not always comment, and I just wanted to say I do the same with my little inventor. I love the balance you are achieving with obedience, structure, free time and inventing. It is not always easy to do. How you are approaching It reminds me of building a fence and letting the children roam free within it. I am putting the book you referred to in my wish list.
Thanks for sharing.

You are killing me, KILLING me, I tell you!!! "Flush that toilet!" And that flash of a grin that we got for a split second as he "sat down". So cute, your little inventor! His brain is amazing, too. ;) I was literally LOL as he was explaining how it worked. "Basically" and all of the hand gestures! He is brillant, Heather! And stinking cute!

Shonda I know...the hand gestures! It's really very simple- as his hands tell you so very emphatically for the camera. haha
He hates auto flushies so he gave it plenty of wait time.
Thanks Shonda!

New retail outlets to replace closed Abu Dhabi shops
Abu Dhabi, January 9, 2013
Abu Dhabi Food Control Authority (ADFCA) said the groceries which have shut down for failing to comply with the new food safety rules will soon be replaced with a wide network of retail shops run by companies such as Spinneys, Snacks, Adnoc Oasis and Select Express.
ADFCA said some of the groceries functioned as usual until the last day of the year-long period for change and closed down on the last day to begin the implementation of the regulations.
While some others closed down for good because they did not comply with the new regulations and waited futilely till the last day, hoping the time will be extended, it stated.
Ahmed Abdul Karim Al Sharaf, the acting director of communication and community service at ADFCA, stressed that the retail shops in the city were given sufficient time to comply with the new changes.
"It is only because of their reluctance to take advantage of the year-long period that new players have now come forward to take their place. Our objective is to make sure the consumers get the best services. We aim to make sure the retail sector is taken to a new level of excellence," he pointed out.
Sharaf said all that was possible was done to help the shop-owners to move on to the new phase without difficulty. "During the year-long period, we increased the number of approved contractors to more than 80 in order to ensure the shopkeepers have enough to choose from," he stated.
Contrary to speculations, Sharaf said ADFCA had not fixed the price for renovations at Dh200,000 ($54,436). "This has been totally left to the choice the shop owners make while applying the changes," he clarified.
The official said the new regulations governing retail stores were framed with a view to guarantee food safety inside them, in addition to other considerations of space, wide gaps in quality between various retail stores and other factors.
He pointed out that no new licence will be issued without complying to the new safety regulations.
According to him, the coming days would see the opening of a wide network of retail shops run by companies such as Spinneys, Snacks, Adnoc Oasis, Select Express, White Rose, Spar and others.
"These new outlets will make up for the ones that are now closed. However, the closure of groceries that are non-compliant will happen in a gradual manner and as per a plan put in place by the governmental committee overseeing the project," Sharaf said.
"We do not want any inconvenience to the consumers. We will try our best to make sure that the consumers will not find themselves all of a sudden without the services they are used to," he added.-TradeArabia News Service

Philip Marlowe and John McKenzie deal with the aftermath of capturing Meredith and rescuing Emily. Harvey is called upon again to dispose of Meredith's corpse. John McKenzie stays overnight with Emily at the hospital. All the while, Heinrich Hersteller was awaiting Michael Feare in Feare's own home. As Michael arrived, Alice mentioned that a business guest was waiting for Michael in the living room. When Heinrich revealed himself to be the guest, Feare knew he walked into a death trap, and that he and possibly Alice would be murdered as revenge for capturing Hersteller's wife, Meredith.
Cold and collected, Hersteller welcomed Feare and suggested that they talk in confidance. Once alone, Hersteller demanded that Feare get Alice to leave the apartment. Feare, not wanting his wife to come to witness his own death, persuaded Alice to leave to buy liquor. The two men sat down in Feare's living room. Feare was soon disarmed by Hersteller, who placed Michael's P08 on the coffee table beyond Feare's reach. Hersteller then demanded that Feare call his detectives and give up Meredith, not knowing that Meredith had bitten her suicide pill and was subsequently dismembered and disposed of. Feare called the office but no one answered, with both Marlowe and McKenzie being off-duty.
Hersteller, irritated that Feare could not immediately arrange Meredith's release, told Feare to lay off the phone for a time, as he was expecting a call to be wired directly to Feare's home. The phone soon rang and a voice could be heard over the receiver notifying Hersteller that his flight tickets had been arranged for him. Hersteller pressured Feare to come up with his wife somehow or he would kill him. When Hersteller moved to the liquor cabinet, Feare quickly retrieved his gun from the idle holster and fired the pre-chambered round into Hersteller's torso. Hersteller managed to draw his own Luger P08 and fire at Feare once, but the bullet strayed. Feare compelled himself to return from cover to fire the killing blow to the sadistic Hersteller, who bled out quickly from the wound. Feare collapsed in his living room in shaken relief, and then reluctantly dialed the police.
Feare would sit in a jail cell that night, until his agency could call upon the evidence to prove Hersteller's crimes and intentions to kill the investigators. Eventually, Feare was acquitted on the accord of self-defense.

I watched the video out of curiosity and felt like I was immediately teleported into that weird planet from the Fifth Element movie, but not to the main show, to a scene on a side street that was cut out from the final script. Something the director realized could never be translated and understood by people whose musical history included the likes of Bach, Mozart, Wagner to name a few (am I making no sense? Mission accomplished!). Clearly Dr. Sommer's latest comment is a message encoded for the aliens of that above mentioned planet, and I will hereby do my best to translate, word by word symbol by symbol:
Hahahaaaa... Meaning "Listen to Santa" (Ho ho ho), here comes the code:
