now I will describe in this part the difference uses of solar energy.
What are the main characteristic of solar energy?
without taking into account the intermittence.
about 200 watts per square meter with current technologies.
it depends on sunshine considerably.
which correspond to most of the world population as seen on the projection.
Western United States, Australia and in coastal areas of South America.
therefore sunshine decreases due to the presence of clouds.
In Europe, solar power is much stronger close to the Mediterranean.
regions such as the north of Scotland and Scandinavia.
Spain, and southern Italy, because of the Mediterranean climate.
is rather comparable to southern Italy, not to the north.
which extend approximately from [FOREIGN] to Savoie included.
especially in [FOREIGN], even in southern Brittany.
the least favored regions, such as [FOREIGN] and [FOREIGN].
We now present the various technologies used to convert solar radiation.
the direct generation of electricity from solar photons.
which is usually stored in the tank at moderate temperature.
which reflect the sunlight on the boiler at the top of a tower.
Electricity can be thermally generate by this technique called CSP.
It is also possible to produce fuels from sunlight, hydrogen for example.
There's also otherwise natural conversion by photosynthesis producing biomass.
energy can be purely passive, as shown here, winter heating and summer cooling.
the greenhouse effect warms the air of a veranda located at south of house.
daylight storage, weather balloons can be added if necessary.
In summer, the sun is high.
The windows of the porch is blocked to avoid excess heat temperatures.
In contrast, cold air is introduced producing a natural cooling effect.
It typically requires a square meter panel on 60 liter of storage per person.
cooking and so on, thank you.

Danny Gokey is A-MAZE-ing! Is Any “Idol” Ever Featured in Corn???
Seven years after his season of “American Idol” ended, we think this just might be the most unusual promotion…. Danny Gokey‘s face is the inspiration for an 11 acre cornfield maze! It’s being used to promote an upcoming fundraiser at the Florence Civic Center’s Uptown Ballroom on Thursday, Nov. 17.
The charity event will benefit the House of Hope and Sophia’s Heart Foundation. Organizers report that the idea to use Danny’s face was agreed to by his management in just an hour! (Early consent was essential since mazes have to be planted that way, not cut into the shape!) and that Danny is expected to get a bird’s eye view of the maze by riding a helicopter over the field the day of the show!
The concert is sponsored by BREATHE, Lifetime Hearing, Freeman’s Bakery, and McArthur Farms.

Yes, weird. That’s why I was drawn to it….
I think it’s great!! It looks like it was a lot of work! I’d be honored. It’s for a good cause, too!
At first I thought Corn was the name of a magazine and Danny was featured in it in some kind of drawing or puzzle game.
You have the old picture (of Danny) back, but a new screen name. Did you change browsers? Unplug your computer?
It may be something else. (?) A couple of others have said their avatars changed also.
MrBing, you used a different email address. One is a Gmail account, the other is a .com account…..
Oh right.The other day I tried to give a thumb up to one of your comments.But I cant do it with my usual account.So I log in my Gmail.So that must automatically change my account…..

What Is The biggest Mindfuck Ever?
1. The continents look entirely different than you think they do.
The map you’re used to is more Western-focused and stretches out the size of continents near the poles. Africa and South America are actually way bigger.
Here’s a more accurate representation of the world, according to the The Gall-Peters Projection map, created in 1885.
2. If you believe that you’re truly one in a million, there are still approximately 7,184 more people out there just like you.
Because there are over 7 billion people.
3. There are castles and even lighthouses that are less expensive than NYC apartments.
4. The United States hasn’t even made it into the Top 50 list of longest-lasting empires.
5. 10 percent of the entire world population is still illiterate.
6. You thoroughly enjoy celebrating some pretty dark holidays.
For example Labor Day was created as a bandaid to coverup multiple massacres of American workers.
7. A whole ecosystem lives in your belly button.
Scientists found 2,368 different species of bacteria living in belly buttons after swabbing the navels of just 60 people.
8. You can’t see as many colors as a chicken. You’ll also never see all the beautiful colors of a rainbow.
9. We haven’t figured out the secret to immortality, but this jellyfish has.
The Turritopsis nutricula can live forever by reverting back to its early stage of life after becoming sexually mature.

Discussion in 'Football Forum' started by jojojo, Jul 2, 2018.
What did Gareth Bale do there?
Did Bale just do that sign at the athletico crowd?
Imagine giving Bale that much space.
It is a computer that draws the line for offside. Did you not see them showing the graphics in the first half some 10 minutes after Griezmann goal?
No, I didn't. Could've done that again to settle it. I'm still sure that a human decides when the ball is passed which will have an impact in very tight calls.
I can already hear Simeone bitching about the referee in his press conference.
Very impressive by Madrid to come back from the dead to looking like a very good team, Vinicius starting completely changed the direction of their season.
Great timing for it to happen too just before the Champions League restarts. Still don't think they'll win it but now I don't see them having any problem to go past Ajax.
Solari's pragmatism paying off... only the 2nd time RM beat Atléti in the league since the latter broke their derbi curse back in 2013.
Are there any other 18 year old players who are starters at big clubs? Maybe there is some but it would be quite surprising.
Is he actually 18? Looks 30!
I still don't know why Lopetegui didn't give him more chances.
Feels like that late win at Betis with the Ceballos FK has changed Madrid's season. Picked up form for the CL as per usual although I don't expect them to win it.
Back comfortably in the top 4 which was looking dodgy a few weeks back. Atletico's title bid is pretty much over. Season that has never really got going for them.
Never believed this comeback under Solari.
The whole team looks very concetrated at the moment, ready for every game.
First place is still unrealistic for me, but hopefully the Copa at least.
I thought they'll show it again for Morata but didn't happen. I don't like VAR the way it is right now. Helps with offside calls but in game referee decisions can not be challenged by teams. Should be like tennis.
Think Real were a bit lucky today. The penalty was probably just outside the box and Morata's disallowed goal was difficult to call. Fair play to Solari for turning it around though.
Solari is probably the first coach that has applied meritocracy at Madrid since Mourinho, and before Mourinho since Capello.
I mean, using Reguilon over Marcelo, Vinicius and Lucas over Isco and Bale, Llorente when needed etc. He took very hard decisions and showed great personality in all of them.
Think it was a foul on Vini before Griezmann's goal too.
Griezmann must be loving his decision right now. Loving it.
Edit: Goal chalked off by VAR. Point would still be good from this.
I was just going to say it has been disallowed.
Class goal to be fair.
When Bales' on form he's got the second best left foot in football,after Messi ofcourse.
Rayo lose anyway in 95th minute.
Rubi survives for another week.
Huesca 2 up at Girona at half time....they couldn't could they?
Reminds me of I think Crotone in Seria A a few years back who were dead and buried for most of the season and then won 5 of their last 7 and stayed up.
I think Lopetegui had a very definite idea of how to play with a lot of passing, very much mirroring the strength of the Spanish national team he had managed. In that scheme, players like Isco and Asensio had a much bigger role. Vinicius was not only young and raw, but probably too direct for his liking.
Hopefully Bilbao get a result tonight. Would like them to stay up and have a good title race, not another Barca procession.
Few difficult choices for Valverde with Messi and Dembele maybe not 100% fit and a huge run of games at the end of the month for Barca, CL away game against Lyon on 19th, away league game at Seville on 23rd then back to back away Classicos, firstly in the cup on 27th then the league game on 02/03.
That is a seriously brutal run of fixtures that could decide their season. If they play Messi today and get's more seriously injured or bring Dembele back to fast could derail the season. Valverde got things right so far but big test for him coming up.
Already getting your excuses ready. Really convenient.
Getting excuses ready for what? For Messi failing? That is only in your imagination, I'm afraid.
I'm a Barça fan and my first priority is for the team to achieve success. I love Messi, he is my favorite player, but I would not prioritize his success or his status over that of the team. No true fan would.
It doesn't strike you as completely illogical that Barça fans would be creating excuses for Messi? I know it seems counterintuitive at first, but think about it. No one has a bigger interest in Barça's success than Barça fans, right? This is logical. So if Messi is the reason for our "failures," why would we exempt him from criticism? This doesn't make sense as we'd be doing the opposite - holding him accountable for Barça not having a couple more Champions League trophies in our cabinet.
What is also funny is the idea that other fans know more about Barça's strategy and importance of certain players than Barça fans who watch every match.
Valverde is also not average. The Barca fanbase is average, if anything. Actually below average: appaling is the fitting word.
Man goes unbeaten 37 league games, wins the double, is in pole position in every competition again, several blowouts in Clasicos (3-0 in Bernabeu, 5-1 at home, even without Messi) and they think they have an average manager because of 1 loss when the entire team mentally switched off for 90 minutes after a 4-1 first leg result.
They think Suarez, the guy who is already Barca's top 5 top scorers of all time and will end up 2nd highest by the time he retires, is average as well because he is clumsy at times.
Bunch of teenage kids who started watching around 2009 earliest and think Barca must forever play like prime Xavi, Iniesta, Alves days.
Worst fanbase in the world bar none. There is no support for anyone whatsoever. Even booed one of their own legends, Luis Enrique, who won them the treble and double because of 1 average season. Imagine calling Ole names after he wins treble and double but then wins only the Cup in his third season.
I wouldn't go so far as to say the worst fanbase out there. I know we're not winning any sympathies, but that seems exaggerated.
When I started visiting football forums, it was clear people hated Barça fans because of the Mes que un club thing, the emphasis on our style of play and all that. It was always odd to me that a large number of people would share animosity toward a fanbase because of that. Now Valverde plays poor football but grinds out results and you wonder why we're not happy. For the same reason we used to be happy with tiki taka - because we want to see great football, not boring close wins against mid-table teams. If not for Messi, we'd be playing like Juventus ffs.
We are successful in absolute terms, but not so much in relative terms. We haven't challenged for the Champions League since 2015, so if we have the best squad in the world, what gives? That seems contradictory to me, that the best team in the world with a great manager cannot challenge for the biggest trophy. Not only that, but Valverde managed to get knocked out against Roma and dropped the undefeated league record conceding five to Levante.
Do you actually watch Barça play?
Valverde is barely an above average manager. He plays some of the most boring football a Barca team has played in nearly 15 years. Just dire football and he was far too pragmatic. He is better off with an Atletico type team that likes to sit back and grind out 1-0 games.
I think this season he has done a much better job playing the youth and he is quite good at making impact subs. However, despite the record last year in La Liga, nobody will be talking about that 2018 Barca squad several years from now, they played some dire football.
Yep. Pep never finished undefeated, but his teams will be talked about for a long time. No one, not even Barça fans, will be talking about Valverde's teams once he's gone. I actually hope this is Valverde's last season with us, so enough said. I just don't feel we can compete with the best.
I'm making that point not to make a narrative but to counter the people who come here on every Barcelona match day trying to build the narrative that Messi is playing next to a bunch of average players and carrying their squad to trophies.
I've been saying it here for years now, Barcelona's last problem is their squad. They have the players to do it, they don't have the tactics for it.
The reason why I give Messi such a hard time for Barcelona's tactical problems is because he's the whole damn system. That team is completely built around him in a way no other top team is built around a single player. The moment that changes is the moment the best squad in the world will actually play like the best team in the world imo.
Messi is absolutely not playing next to average players. I don't think that's the argument people are making. What's clear, though, is that when Messi is on the pitch, everything gravitates towards him. This is due to both the manager and the players. Of course, "give the ball to Leo" is the easiest tactic in football and, as we can see, it can win you a domestic double, more than one actually. Problem is, that tactic is exposed in the big Champions League games. I can see the look on Rijkaard's face even now, back in 2006-07 when his game plan consisted of begging Messi to score.
Pep's four years were different as he is the only one who created a real team around Messi, while the others just used Messi as the entire system, as you say. But this is not Leo's fault. If anything, it's a compliment. I have not seen any other player influence a team so much and for such a long period, only Leo. As for the players, they are not average by any standards, but their mentality and way of playing doesn't help. They look for Messi too much, you can see it in their body language, the way they position themselves to receive and pass the ball, always wanting to find Leo. Messi is surrounded by world class players who do not play like they are world class, they all take a step back and wait for Messi to solve the game. This is why I don't think we can compete, because Leo can't beat everyone on his own.
Just look at Suarez's performance in the 5-1 win vs Madrid, and his performance in the 1-1 Copa game. Suarez is a great striker and he is capable of taking on responsibility and leading his team to a win, but he doesn't do that. Why? Because of the tactics that revolve around Messi and also because he suffers from the same thing as the rest of the team - they all defer to Messi. They know whetever they try, Messi can do it better and more effectively so they leave it to him, and in doing so the entire weight of the team is put on one player. The thing is, Messi is the only player capable of carrying this weight and he does it season after season. He is not one to shy away from taking on different roles and assuming responsibility, hence our domestic success. He essentially replaced Xavi and Iniesta by himself. The Champions League, on the other hand, is a lottery, it's much more difficult to win because one average game puts you out and we feel this every season. This season will be the same because I don't see anything on the pitch that tells me otherwise - they're all standing there watching Messi create our football again.
So, in conclusion, I would say it's both the tactics and the squad. And when I say squad, I don't mean the lack of quality in the players themselves, but rather their inability (or lack of will) to take on responsibility and step up when Messi is on the pitch. It's the same story every season.
Valverde is defensive for Barcelona standards. Generally speaking he's not particularly defense oriented. Barcelona have 60 goals in the league as of now, the second best attack has 37.
Valverde is a defensive coach who has Messi in his team.
"El Lega" has conquered your heart, or was the pepino?
The big trophy of the day has already been won, Leganes beat Rayo 2-0 and won the Pepino de Oro, here shown alongside the runners-up trophy the Pepino de Plato.
For anyone uncertain what that trophy is - a pepino is a Spanish cucumber, usually short and with a bumpy surface.
It's their president and fanbase etc! I just liked the story of how the club staggered it's way up the league and how hard they've fought to hang on.
In any case, Setien was quite catty about them after the match, so I feel obliged to be their defender. They do their best - which is basically what the Leganes manager said in reply.
Eh, I wanted a draw.
Anyway, I'm more concerned about the Bilbao vs Barça match. We are completely unpredictable this season.
Didn't play that strong a side, Jese actually started upfront for them who I forgot existed after his non-existant spells at Stoke and PSG. They were resting players for Valencia second leg whenever it is.
Leganes now about 6 points off top 6 which shows how crazy bottom half is.
2 defeats in 13 for Leganes, Pellegrino doing well there.
Sevilla slumping a bit now, that 4th place might open up with Valencia and Real Sociedad improving a lot last 6 weeks.
Eibar 2-0 now. They were near bottom 3 few weeks back, now 6th.
He's not a bad manager tbh, had a great season with Alaves. Just a bit defensive minded and that obviously wasnt a good fit at Southampton.
If this result holds six point difference between 6th and 15th.
Indeed 9 points between europa qualification and 18th and relegation.
Premier league difference is 26 points between 6th and 18th.

what did gareth bale do there?
did bale just do that sign at the athletico crowd?
imagine giving bale that much space.
it is a computer that draws the line for offside. did you not see them showing the graphics in the first half some 10 minutes after griezmann goal?
no, i didn't. could've done that again to settle it. i'm still sure that a human decides when the ball is passed which will have an impact in very tight calls.
i can already hear simeone bitching about the referee in his press conference.
very impressive by madrid to come back from the dead to looking like a very good team, vinicius starting completely changed the direction of their season.
great timing for it to happen too just before the champions league restarts. still don't think they'll win it but now i don't see them having any problem to go past ajax.
solari's pragmatism paying off... only the 2nd time rm beat atléti in the league since the latter broke their derbi curse back in 2013.
are there any other 18 year old players who are starters at big clubs? maybe there is some but it would be quite surprising.
is he actually 18? looks 30!
i still don't know why lopetegui didn't give him more chances.
feels like that late win at betis with the ceballos fk has changed madrid's season. picked up form for the cl as per usual although i don't expect them to win it.
back comfortably in the top 4 which was looking dodgy a few weeks back. atletico's title bid is pretty much over. season that has never really got going for them.
never believed this comeback under solari.
the whole team looks very concetrated at the moment, ready for every game.
first place is still unrealistic for me, but hopefully the copa at least.
i thought they'll show it again for morata but didn't happen. i don't like var the way it is right now. helps with offside calls but in game referee decisions can not be challenged by teams. should be like tennis.
think real were a bit lucky today. the penalty was probably just outside the box and morata's disallowed goal was difficult to call. fair play to solari for turning it around though.
solari is probably the first coach that has applied meritocracy at madrid since mourinho, and before mourinho since capello.
i mean, using reguilon over marcelo, vinicius and lucas over isco and bale, llorente when needed etc. he took very hard decisions and showed great personality in all of them.
think it was a foul on vini before griezmann's goal too.
griezmann must be loving his decision right now. loving it.
edit: goal chalked off by var. point would still be good from this.
i was just going to say it has been disallowed.
class goal to be fair.
when bales' on form he's got the second best left foot in football,after messi ofcourse.
rayo lose anyway in 95th minute.
rubi survives for another week.
huesca 2 up at girona at half time....they couldn't could they?
reminds me of i think crotone in seria a a few years back who were dead and buried for most of the season and then won 5 of their last 7 and stayed up.
i think lopetegui had a very definite idea of how to play with a lot of passing, very much mirroring the strength of the spanish national team he had managed. in that scheme, players like isco and asensio had a much bigger role. vinicius was not only young and raw, but probably too direct for his liking.
hopefully bilbao get a result tonight. would like them to stay up and have a good title race, not another barca procession.
few difficult choices for valverde with messi and dembele maybe not 100% fit and a huge run of games at the end of the month for barca, cl away game against lyon on 19th, away league game at seville on 23rd then back to back away classicos, firstly in the cup on 27th then the league game on 02/03.
that is a seriously brutal run of fixtures that could decide their season. if they play messi today and get's more seriously injured or bring dembele back to fast could derail the season. valverde got things right so far but big test for him coming up.
already getting your excuses ready. really convenient.
getting excuses ready for what? for messi failing? that is only in your imagination, i'm afraid.
i'm a barça fan and my first priority is for the team to achieve success. i love messi, he is my favorite player, but i would not prioritize his success or his status over that of the team. no true fan would.
it doesn't strike you as completely illogical that barça fans would be creating excuses for messi? i know it seems counterintuitive at first, but think about it. no one has a bigger interest in barça's success than barça fans, right? this is logical. so if messi is the reason for our "failures," why would we exempt him from criticism? this doesn't make sense as we'd be doing the opposite - holding him accountable for barça not having a couple more champions league trophies in our cabinet.

ROCKVILLE CENTRE, N.Y.- The Sacred Heart University Women's Rugby team defeated Molloy in a tight comeback victory with the final score ending in 30-17. The team played in a 12 vs. 12 format for today's game. The win concludes the regular season for the 15's as they team will wait for an announcement to determine if the team will make the Tier II Championships which is scheduled for November 10.
"Molloy is one of our favorite matches each season. We know that they play hard and never give up so it's always a competitive game." Head Coach Michelle Reed on the tough opponent in Molloy.
Molloy would score first as they would take a 7-0 lead courtesy of Nickels. SHU would come back as Isabel Cuddy would find the touchline to tighten the Molloy lead to 7-5. A try then by Kaylee Hale would give the Pioneers a 10-7 lead to conclude the first quarter.
"I'm proud of how our team stepped up as a unit and played with heart and passion. Each breakdown was a battle and every team member had to accomplish their role to win the battle. There was no room for error. Nicole Lopes had her best game of her career running low and hard to gain ground and using her strength to dominate in the scrums. Grace de Poortere, Tyffany Brisbane, and Tessa Buckey controlled the backline finding holes on offense and making key tackles on defense." Reed on the performance of the team.
The Pioneers would continue the dominance in the second half as Arianna Heonis would find the touchline to give the Pioneers a 15-7 lead. After the conversion was successful by Hale, she would then score again for the Pioneers to give SHU a 22-7 lead. The Pioneers would score one more try in the third quarter courtesy of Allie Rinaldi to eventually give the Pioneers the 30-17 victory.
Reed added, "the backs and forwards did their jobs as we came together through the adversity of a nor'easter and the pressure of Molloy's defense to walk away successful. We are a stronger and more cohesive team than we were at the beginning of the season."

Democratic Party officials are apologizing after Randy Iwase and Malama Solomon, the Democratic candidates for governor and lieutenant governor, ran a series of television ads with phony headlines pasted onto a copy of the Honolulu Advertiser.
Mike McCartney, Democratic Party chairman, said he met with Solomon, whose campaign paid for the ads, and said she has apologized for the misleading ads.
"It was just wrong and I don't defend it. It was a mistake," McCartney said.
Solomon did not return calls asking for comment.
The television ads were prepared by Brickwood Galuteria, the former chairman of the Democratic Party, who said yesterday the headlines had been "edited."
"I put those together, but I didn't realize the headlines were edited. It wasn't a fake headline, it was an edited headline," Galuteria said.
"I knew they were edited. Once I got a call of concern, I pulled them. I take full responsibility," he said.
But Mark Platte, vice president and editor of the morning newspaper, said despite assurances that the misleading ads would be removed, they continued to run, and he called McCartney to complain.
"Those were not headlines that we published," Platte said.
"They were obviously headlines that had been superimposed on the front of our newspaper. It was a kind of erroneous, blatant use of our newspaper," he added.
The issue was first raised publicly yesterday by Republican Party Chairman Sam Aiona, who called a news conference to demand that the ads be withdrawn.
"They are continually rewriting the truth," Aiona said.
The television ads show a montage of Advertiser front pages with three headlines that say, "Iraq War See No End in Sight," "No Child Left Behind Leaves Many Behind" and "Hawaii's housing highest in nation."
The actual headline that was replaced on the Oct. 11 edition of the paper said, "Isle oil companies still scrutiny-free."
The Iwase-Solomon campaign did not change the story accompanying the headline, but did substitute phony headlines.
Aiona said the ads were "a misleading activity that has no place in politics."
Although state law requires the governor and lieutenant governor candidates to run as a team in the general election, Iwase said yesterday that the ads were placed by Solomon.
"It was paid for by the Friends of Malama Solomon. We didn't put any ads on TV," Iwase said.
Asked about the ad yesterday, Iwase said he did not know if the allegations were true.
"I wasn't involved with the ad. She put that ad together on her own," he said.
Democratic candidate for governor Randy Iwase says he would have done a better job handling the state's reaction to Sunday's earthquakes than Republican Gov. Linda Lingle.
Iwase, a former state senator and city councilman, said the state response "was clearly unacceptable."
Lingle was mistaken to say that the entire state was a disaster area, Iwase charged, saying that it would hurt tourism.
"I would have ... declared portions of the Big Island a disaster area," Iwase said.
"What you seem to have is panic and overreaction," Iwase said yesterday during a news conference on the state Capitol lawn.
Iwase was joined by Democratic U.S. Rep. Neil Abercrombie, who also said that Lingle should not have called the entire state a disaster area.
Maj. Gen. Robert Lee, state Civil Defense director, said the decision to declare the state a disaster area came after consultation with the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
"We were in constant communications with FEMA ... and in our declaration with FEMA the recommendation was, 'You don't know what is happening now. It is better you ask for the whole thing,' and we concurred," Lee said.
Michael Karl, FEMA coordinating officer, said that the emergency declaration, which resulted in President Bush declaring the state a disaster area, will allow Honolulu to recover the overtime costs for city workers such as police, fire and rescue units put on standby or directing traffic because of the power failure.
But not everyone in Iwase's party agrees about Lingle's performance. U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye praised her.
During a news conference after taking an aerial survey of the damage, Inouye was asked about the state's performance.
"When one considers our communication system came to a sudden halt, it was magnificent. On the whole the governor did well," Inouye said.
Iwase also criticized Lingle for the power failures and lack of communications at Honolulu Airport. Lingle acknowledged that communication was not good, and appointed her senior communications adviser, Lenny Klompus, to work with the airlines, news media and hotels to come up with a better emergency system.
But when asked about the airport problems, Inouye said, "It is easy to be a Monday morning quarterback."

iwase, a former state senator and city councilman, said the state response "was clearly unacceptable."
lingle was mistaken to say that the entire state was a disaster area, iwase charged, saying that it would hurt tourism.
"i would have ... declared portions of the big island a disaster area," iwase said.
"what you seem to have is panic and overreaction," iwase said yesterday during a news conference on the state capitol lawn.
iwase was joined by democratic u.s. rep. neil abercrombie, who also said that lingle should not have called the entire state a disaster area.
maj. gen. robert lee, state civil defense director, said the decision to declare the state a disaster area came after consultation with the federal emergency management agency.
"we were in constant communications with fema ... and in our declaration with fema the recommendation was, 'you don't know what is happening now. it is better you ask for the whole thing,' and we concurred," lee said.
michael karl, fema coordinating officer, said that the emergency declaration, which resulted in president bush declaring the state a disaster area, will allow honolulu to recover the overtime costs for city workers such as police, fire and rescue units put on standby or directing traffic because of the power failure.
but not everyone in iwase's party agrees about lingle's performance. u.s. sen. daniel inouye praised her.
during a news conference after taking an aerial survey of the damage, inouye was asked about the state's performance.
"when one considers our communication system came to a sudden halt, it was magnificent. on the whole the governor did well," inouye said.
iwase also criticized lingle for the power failures and lack of communications at honolulu airport. lingle acknowledged that communication was not good, and appointed her senior communications adviser, lenny klompus, to work with the airlines, news media and hotels to come up with a better emergency system.
but when asked about the airport problems, inouye said, "it is easy to be a monday morning quarterback."

In the speech, which lasted well over an hour, many measures were announced that will affect the money in the pocket. Here's what it means to you.
Will I pay less income tax?
The amount you can earn each year before this basic rate income tax – called the Personal Allowance – currently stands at £ 11,850.
In April, a year earlier than expected, this will change so that the first £ 12,500 of income will be exempt from income tax. The higher tax rate currently payable at £ 46,350 will start at £ 50,000 in April, also 12 months earlier than promised.
This will be a boost to the repayment of millions of people. Accountants Deloitte said that this would mean an annual tax savings of £ 130 for taxpayers, £ 860 for taxpayers with higher tax rates and £ 600 for taxpayers with additional tax.
These levels will be frozen the following year, but will thereafter increase significantly in line with inflation. That is, when people earn more, they are not automatically drawn into a higher tax bracket.
The way in which income tax is levied is different in Scotland, due to its delegated powers. At the moment. The starter rate also starts when the annual income reaches £ 11,850, but next year it will have to rise to £ 12,500.
The higher rate currently starts at £ 43,430 and is set in Scotland. All changes will be announced in the Scottish budget in December.
What about the services? Has the universal loan not proved to be controversial?
Yes, there has been quite a debate within the Conservative Party about how this will be implemented.
This is a highly complex welfare reform that can affect millions of people in different ways in the future – with winners and losers.
However, the Chancellor said that the employment allowances would be increased if the rollout was Universal Credit completed. The allowance is the amount someone can earn before payment of the benefit is affected.
In July of 2015, George Osborne cuts work benefits at Universal Credit.
Is there a salary increase for anyone?
The level of National Living Wages, currently £ 7.83 per hour, will rise by more than the cost of living. For workers over the age of 25, it will rise to 8.21 pounds per hour in April.
Will these drivers like it?
Prime Minister Theresa May had already announced that the mineral oil tax will be frozen for the ninth year series.
As announced on the weekend, local governments in England receive an additional £ 420 million to cope with a growing number of potholes. Activists say that this is not enough to solve the problem.
As with the last budget, the duty on beer, cider and spirits has been frozen, although there will be an increase on some high registers. Fortifying drinks, including some white ciders. The wine tax will rise in line with inflation.
Tobacco tax will rise further by inflation plus 2%.
An interest-free lending system for financially-financed companies will also become more vital to overcoming and unexpected household costs, similar to the Good Shepherd project in Australia. Next year, a study will be carried out to find out how a pilot project could work. So it could be some time before this became a mainstream option.
The Treasury believes that one-third of people claim to be self-employment as a "personal service company" actually works just like workers and should have more income tax and social security contributions numbers.
Now that the regulations in the public sector have changed, it is now also in the private sector of April 2020. However, this will only be used for those working for large and medium-sized enterprises.
Activists immediately described it as a "fresh raid" for the self-employed.
First-time home buyers in England are no longer required to pay a stamp duty of up to £ 500,000, which is the same as the majority of first-time buyers in the last household. This will also be backdated for anyone who bought such a property in the last year.
There are more than 200,000 condos in the UK.
What about real banknotes and coins?
A 50 cent commemorative coin is issued to mark the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the EU.
On the coin will be the head of the queen and the date of March 29, 2019 and on the reverse the phrase "friendship with all nations".
This is a reversal of the last budget when the Treasury Department paved the way for the withdrawal of 1p and 2p coins and possibly the £ 50 mark. This idea has since been dropped.
Some changes in the way higher severance payments, company cars and employee loans are taxed will come into effect in April.

Have you been wanting to try essential oils or a new essential oil, but not really wanting to spend much money or over pay? I know how you feel.
How about trying out some essential oils for free?! Yes, sign me up!
I have been sharing about my love of getting free wellness items or ways to save recently during our “How to Fund Your Wellness Efforts Series” and here is another quick and easy way when it comes to essential oils from Plant Therapy. Sign up here for notifications of new posts.
If you are a new Plant Therapy customer click this link to go to Plant Therapy to claim your $10 towards your first $25 purchase. Yep, it is that easy to get $10 towards a purchase of essential oils or related products.
Since many of their essential oils are under $10, this means you can get an essential oil for free. Or you can use the $10 towards a diffuser (check out my review of the Plant Therapy Aromafuse at this post The Best Essential Oil Diffuser) or one of their amazing essential oil kits.
Some essential oil sets are as low as $19.95 like this lemon, lavender and peppermint set (although I would suggest going with one of their gift sets that have 6 essential oils for $25.98 for the best value) or you can go for a larger set such as this one with essential oils, carrier oils, roller bottles, personal inhalers and a diffuser. They also have sets that are somewhere in the middle that gives you a well rounded experience.
If you have little ones in your home, then check out one of Plant Therapy’s KidSafe sets. The Plant Therapy KidSafe line has been developed for kids ages 2-10.
Plant Therapy offers quick & free shipping within the United States, so it nice to know that you won’t be stuck paying more when checking out, unless there is tax on one of your items.
Ok, so $10 towards a purchase of $25 is not too shabby. But $20 is even better, right? If you have not tried Ebates (click here to read about my experience and review in the post Are You Missing Out On Easy Money From Ebates?) then this might be the time to give it a try.
If you are a new Ebates customer and sign up here, then you can earn $10 for your first $25 purchase with one of their participating retailers. And would you know, Plant Therapy is one of their participating retailers!
Already Have An Essential Oil Brand You Love?
I know there are many loyal essential oil brand lovers out there and that is great if you have found one that you love and trust. If you are not interested in trying out Plant Therapy’s essential oils then maybe try one of their other products such as diffusers, personal inhalers, carrier oils, jewelry or storage cases.
Or maybe even a hydrosol since not all brands make and sell (it is the aromatic waters that remain after the distillation process of extracting the essential oil from the plant material). These are great to use on their own, on children (because they are less potent than essential oils, therefore carry less risk for their sensitive and young skin) or great in DIY beauty products (use instead of water in any recipe).
Already a Plant Therapy or Ebates Customer?
If you are already a Plant Therapy customer, then you know how great their products are and receive their great promotional emails for savings. And if you are already an Ebates user then you know how the cash back on the online shopping you already do is nice perk that can be used towards your wellness wish list.
And if you are already a customer at both companies and I could not give you any money savings tips this time, I am sorry but am glad you are already being savvy! Hopefully some of my future tips will be worth trying!
Being able to get free money towards any item you want is great, but doubling up on deals is even better! If you are new to both Plant Therapy and Ebates then you can easily get $20 towards your essential oil purchase of $25 or more (plus cash back from your purchase from Ebates).
There are at least four sets that are currently listed at $25.98 and contain 6 different essential oils. This means that you can get 6 essential oils for only $5.98!!! That is like getting 1 essential oil at a discounted price and 5 free essential oils. Yay!
My mother recently got the Top 6 Singles Essential Oils Set and loves it! Here is the link to claim your $10 towards $25 from Plant Therapy.
And this is the link to sign up at Ebates for your $10 after spending $25 at one of their online partners, like Plant Therapy. Happy Shopping!
