Germany: Cologne Crocodiles sign University of Hawaii LB Makani Kema-Kaleiwahea

Germany’s Cologne Crocodiles signed linebacker Makani Kema-Kaleiwahea from the University of Hawaii Warriors last week following a season-ending injury to Justin Cooper.

Kema-Kaleiwahea made his first appearance in last week’s win over the Berlin Rebels, and recorded five tackles and two tackles for loss.

The 25 year old, 6’3″, 245 lb  native of Honolulu, Hawaii transferred to the Warriors after spending his freshman and sophomore years at the University of Arizona. In his final two seasons at Hawaii he was a standout on defense , playing in 24 games and recording 68 total tackles. He was named team captain in his senior year.

Head coach of the Crocodiles Patrick Köpper:

“Makani will help us in the short term as a player and leader, but also as a model for our young players on and off the field.”

Kema-Kaleiwahea is enthusiastic after his first week:

“The Crocodiles are a very family-run club, I felt comfortable right away and was welcomed by the team. I am not so satisfied with my performance in my first game here, but I will work hard to return to my old performance level as soon as possible.”

Kema-Kaleiwahea’s sense of family stretches far beyond his football family. He is also the parent of foster children of his own. Check out the amazing story.

The Gridiron Crew spoke with Kema-Kaleiwahea earlier this year about his style of play:

GC: If you could describe your style of play in 3 words, what would they be?

Makani: 3 words that would describe my game of play is High Motor, Instinctive, and Passion.

GC: If you could compare yourself to one current or former NFL player who would it be and why?

Makani: I would compare my style of play very similar to Hau’oli Kikaha, the OLB for the New Orleans Saints. His ability to play in space as a Linebacker and Pass rush on 3rd down makes him a big time player for any team. I feel I have the same ability to play both positions as well. We both can play special teams as well.

GC: When you are studying film, what do you focus on or look for?

Makani: When I watch film there are a lot of things to look for. When I break down a team I usually look at their down and distance calls, which will give you a big clue what on what they’ll run in the game. Teams usually favor certain plays in situations and as a defensive player it’s crucial you know it. Players also give away plays in their alignments, feet or even their hand placements during pre snap. Film is life when it comes to playing football.

GC: What separates you from other players at your position?

Makani: What separates me from others is my ability to be an every down player. A lot of guys are 3rd down rushers or just 1st and 2nd down backers, but I can stay in the entire drive and produce.

The Crocodiles (3-3) play their next game June 24 against the Hamburg Huskies.

The Cape Florida Light is a lighthouse on Cape Florida at the south end of Key Biscayne in Miami-Dade County, Florida. It was built in 1825 and operated, with interruptions, until 1878, when it was replaced by the Fowey Rocks lighthouse. The lighthouse was put back into use in 1978. The lighthouse marked a reef four miles (6 km) off-shore, and still marks the Florida Channel, the deepest natural channel into Biscayne Bay. The construction contract called for a 65-foot-tall (20 m) tower with walls of solid brick, five feet thick at the bottom tapering to two feet thick at the top. It was later found that the contractor had scrimped on materials and built hollow walls. The first keeper of the lighthouse was Captain John Dubose, who served for more than ten years. In 1835 a major hurricane struck the island, damaging the lighthouse and the keeper's house, and putting the island under three feet of water.

Singapore is a very special Southeast Asian island city-state. At 1 degree north of the Equator, Singapore is sunny all year round and is one of the smallest countries in the world. Historically, she has always been at the crossroads of trading routes and migration paths. The outcome?

A brilliant cultural fusion!

If you are excited to explore Singapore but have no idea where to begin, let me be your local guide.

Hello there, I'm Amie! I'm born and raised in Singapore all my life.
In the past 23 years, I have explored many different parts across the island and am always on a quest to discover more about it. There is no city guide that I can be more confident of writing than a guide on my home country, Singapore. I love travelling other places, exploring the local food, places, cultures and meeting new people too. Travelling the 'local way' is definitely my favourite way of seeing the world. This travel guide to Singapore is intended to help you understand and experience this lovely country the 'local' way. No more safe tourist bubbles, you're now a traveler.

Locality cheat sheets

This ever-expanding city guide begins from a passion for food around the island. This city guide is written with the explorer in mind (that's you!) Therefore, it is organized by locality to fit in your self-guided walking tours. It is compiled with the hope of helping both locals and travelers to have an enjoyable time in Singapore.

Getting to and from Singapore

Singapore is an island city-state. You can enter Singapore by airplane, by train, or by cruise/ferry.

Airplane - Changi Airport
Changi Airport is the only civilian airport in Singapore. It is located on the far East of the island.
There are currently three terminals - Terminal 1, 2 and 3.

How to get from Changi Airport to the city center:

1. Take the MRT train (the metro/ subway)
The MRT train station is accessible by foot from Terminal 2 and 3.
From Terminal 1, take the skytrain to Terminal 2 to access the MRT train station.
In the airport, follow the signs that point you towards the MRT that will lead you to Changi Airport MRT on the green line. To reach the city center, you will have to transfer at Tanah Merah MRT (towards Joo Koon/ City/ Westbound). The last train that connects to the last westbound train at Tanah Merah MRT leaves Changi Airport MRT at 2318.

All the trains and gantries at the stations are luggage-friendly.

When leaving Singapore, note that the first train arrives at Changi Airport MRT station at 0526 from Monday to Saturday, and at 0554 on Sundays and public holidays.

Fares vary by distance. You can buy a single-trip ticket or buy the Ez-link card (recommended for your convenience). You can calculate your fare with this fare calculator here. A trip from Changi Airport MRT to City Hall MRT costs $1.70 for a regular adult ticket.

2. Taxi
All taxis in Singapore run by meter and failure to do so by taxi drivers is illegal.
Note that there is a airport surcharge for trips from Changi Airport.
There are also peak hour surcharges, midnight surcharges and city area surcharges.
Limousine and Mercedes taxis are more expensive as well.
Uber and Grab are the biggest taxi-hailing apps that Singaporeans use.

Train - Woodlands Train Checkpoint
This is a railway train station that is operated by Malaysian Keretapi Tanah Melayu.

Public buses run between Woodlands MRT (911, 912, 913, 856, 903), Marsiling MRT (856), Kranji MRT (170 with red plate) and Woodlands Train Checkpoint.

Cruise/ Ferry - Harbourfront, Singapore Cruise Center
You will arrive at Harboufront Centre. Follow the signs to reach Harbourfront MRT which connects you to the Circle line and purple line.

Stay on the right side of the law.

Many outsiders call Singapore a 'fine' city, and have fears that they might get into trouble with the Singapore law system. Do not worry, as long as you keep some of these 'strange laws' in mind while not trying to cheat the system, you will be hundred-percent alright! 😂

1. Ensure you have your visa - if you need one.

2. Chewing gum is illegal...?
Fact: Chewing gum as a product is illegal to bring into Singapore.
Reality: If it is in small quantities, authorities hardly check it.
The purpose of banning chewing gum is to maintain the cleanliness and to avoid acts of mischief associated with sticky gum. If you must chew gum, dispose of it properly.

3. Drinking alcohol in public after 10.30pm - banned
A rule that I do not agree with, but remains punishable.
Drinking alcohol at licensed premises (bars, restaurants) and in private areas (homes) are allowed.
Retail shops stop selling alcohol from 10pm onwards.

4. Littering, vandalism and drug abuse
Keep away from these activities at all times.

5. Smoking
Many places prohibit smoking strictly - all indoor places, sheltered walkways, bus-stops, parks and reservoirs. This includes a 5m radius from these areas.

Recent Excavations at Kultepe, Turkey

4,000-Year-Old Tablets with Evidence of Bronze Age Rights for Women Discovered in Turkey

(Read the article on one page)

Great finds continue to be unearthed at the Bronze Age site of Kültepe-Kaniş-Karum, in Turkey. The latest discovery includes millennia old cuneiform tablets referring to commercial interests as well as personal and social topics. Perhaps the most startling discovery is the inclusion of tablets discussing women's rights.

Kültepe-Kaniş-Karum (Kultepe) is located in Kayseri province, Turkey. It was a well-known ancient trade colony that has been of interest to archaeologists since 1948. It is estimated that approximately 70,000 people inhabited the settlement four millennia ago. Artifacts from the early and middle Bronze Age as well as the Iron Age and Ancient Greece and Rome have been discovered at this site.

As reported in the Hurriyet Daily News , when excavations began again this summer, the archaeologists were certain to find more information regarding ancient life at the expansive site of Kultepe. In a short amount of time, they have added numerous cuneiform tablets to the already immense collection of commercial tablets found in past excavations. This time however, more personal and social writing has emerged.

Cuneiform tablets, Kultepe, Turkey

“From women’s rights to the adoption of children and marriages arranged at birth, the tablets include all kinds of civilizational and social data from Anatolia 4,000 years ago. There is also an emotional letter from a woman to her husband and a letter from another woman who complains about her mother-in-law. You can’t find such things in an empire’s official archive,” Professor Fikri Kulakoğlu of Ankara University, told Doğan News Agency .

Though great detail has not yet been provided on the exact content of the cuneiform tablets discussing women's rights, this is an interesting topic to find in the Bronze Age site, but not the first example we have seen regarding gender equality in ancient Turkey. Ancient Origins has already depicted that men and women in ancient Turkey lived in equality at the Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük.

In total, 23,500 cuneiform tablets have been discovered in Kultepe over the years of excavations. The numerous examples of ancient writing was explained by Prof. Fikri Kulakoğlu to Doğan News Agency : “Kultepe is where the Anatolian enlightenment began. The people in this area were literate much earlier than other places in Anatolia, including its west.”

A highlight of other important artifacts that have been unearthed at Kultepe include: the largest monumental structure of the Middle East, an ancient baby rattle, and a cuneiform tablet dating to 2000 BC describing the local kingdoms in Anatolia during that time.

There have undoubtedly been numerous discoveries made at Kultepe, despite the fact that only a small section of the site has been excavated. Officials have suggested that it may take upwards to 5,000 years to excavate the entire ancient site due to the immensity. Though this timeframe may be something of an exaggeration, there is certainly much more for Kultepe to unveil to us in the future.

“This is a huge wealth,” Kulakoğlu stated in a news report . He hopes that the wealth of cultural materials found and still waiting to be re-discovered, will one day lead to Kultepe's inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

There certainly is a great value. The recent discoveries at Kultepe, are demonstrating once again that archaeology is as much about telling the human story in seemingly common artifacts as well as the sacred and monumental. These small-in-size-but heavy-in-content artifacts describe to us just as much, or perhaps more, as large statues about the daily events of ancient life.

By Alicia McDermott

Better not let the Turkish government get wind of this. They might want to smash the site to pieces for suggesting that ancient women had rights.

Just saying what others are thinking.

It is sad to see postings by people who have no true understanding of other cultures. They put their prejudices out there for everyone to see.

The Turkey that I have seen is diverse in their population and beliefs. The country at least is an experiment in democracy and attempts to separate church from state. While there are religious fanatics in Turkey so are there ones in the United States. Turkey is no more going to want to destroy its' heritage then we are. They are fighting groups like ISIS.

Yes, there are battles going on between the ethnic Kurds and the government because the Kurds want their own nation-state. However neither side wants to destroy their heritage and both are fighting ISIS.

If you want to comment about a culture, country or government, at least get the payers and their views right.

Gary Ray Fraley

I very much doubt it. It's long been known that women had rights in ancient cultures like Egypt, Sumeria and Anatolia. And most Turks are educated people who would have no desire to destroy an ancient site. They're quite well aware of Anatolia's heritage.

Our Mission

At Ancient Origins, we believe that one of the most important fields of knowledge we can pursue as human beings is our beginnings. And while some people may seem content with the story as it stands, our view is that there exists countless mysteries, scientific anomalies and surprising artifacts that have yet to be discovered and explained.

The goal of Ancient Origins is to highlight recent archaeological discoveries, peer-reviewed academic research and evidence, as well as offering alternative viewpoints and explanations of science, archaeology, mythology, religion and history around the globe.

We’re the only Pop Archaeology site combining scientific research with out-of-the-box perspectives.

By bringing together top experts and authors, this archaeology website explores lost civilizations, examines sacred writings, tours ancient places, investigates ancient discoveries and questions mysterious happenings. Our open community is dedicated to digging into the origins of our species on planet earth, and question wherever the discoveries might take us. We seek to retell the story of our beginnings.

peanut brittle

{EAT} This time it is Peanut Brittle. Sugar, corn syrup, vanilla & peanuts for a delicious addictive candy that can be enjoyed year round.
Hope those of you enjoying a long weekend are having a fab one!

[AFTER EATING} I am reading Eat, Pray, Love these days and I cannot help to stop and think how much I can relate to Elizabeth Gilbert's feelings towards Italian language. Except that I have those feelings for French language. I wish I had the time to study French on a daily basis since I cannot take a three month "leave" and go to Paris to be fully immersed in the language. I have been a regular student at the Alliance Francaise for many years and in different countries... and I have the full collection of Bescherelle's, read French magazines and some nice blogs... but unfortunately, I do not have anyone to practice with. I need a French language support group ASAP!!!!!

{note to self} watching the news in French might help.

If I ever look like I enjoy the challenges put before me you don’t truly know the pain deep inside my soul.

My son, Jason Ethier is a survivor of childhood cancer. In 1987 at 2 years of age he was diagnosed with T-Cell Leukemia. To cure the cancer Jason received chemotherapy for 30 months and 2400 Gy rads of cranial radiation. In 1987 I was told that without the treatment Jason would die. So I signed informed consent to the protocol. I was a single mom and I didn’t want my son to die. What I didn’t know was the toxic protocol would also change my son’s ability to have a life comparable to his peers. I didn’t know it would be this hard to watch him overcome challenge after challenge. I didn’t know my other son would have his own challenges as I spent time with his brother. I didn’t know I would acquire depression and PTSD.

A few months ago Jason applied for support from our local government, today he received a letter saying benefits denied.

Jason is a young man and faces challenges with the late effects of cancer treatment. The radiation treatments have impacted his life in a major way as Jason has a brain injury that affects his memory, attention and learning. Living with a brain injury has made school work difficult and caused employment issues for Jason.

Challenges with memory are the hardest for Jason to deal with. Medical researchers  have reported that children who received  cranial radiation as part of their treatment are at risk of early onset dementia as early as 36 years of age. ¹

Jason also has other side effects from treatments, hormone replacement therapy and sterility. Jason is being monitored yearly for heart damage from the drug Adriamycin. This February his echocardiogram revealed a decline in ejection fraction from 60% to 45%. Jason is now being followed by a cardiologist. He is experiencing symptoms that are frightening to him. He has told me he feels “his heart stop” and at times it’s beating too fast. And he is afraid of dying.

My anguish is deep and I am one frustrated pediatric oncology mom. How can a group of scientists develop cures that interfere with a child’s normal growth and development and then leave the child and family to navigate community supports that are hard to access or not available?

Jason is not alone, there are many survivors like him who need support. Advances to the treatment of childhood cancer have made it possible for many children to be cured of their cancer. For approximately 2/3 of these survivors their cure came with a price. Surgery, radiation and chemotherapy treatments can interfere with a child’s normal growth and development and often leave the survivor to face lifelong medical and psychosocial challenges. Some of these side effects include heart, lung or kidney damage, fertility issues, and neurocognitive impairment.

Childhood cancer survivors not only have medical issues but also have poorer economic outcomes. Studies have shown that compared to their siblings childhood cancer survivors have higher rates of unemployment and if they do work their income is lower than that of their siblings. It is imperative that these survivors have opportunities to live to their full potential. Childhood cancer survivors who have late effects of treatment need advocates to help improve their quality of life.

If I ever look like I am enjoying this journey………..it’s all pretend. I know God hasn’t forgotten me and if I did not have my faith I truly do not know how I would have the courage to keep moving forward.

I pray for all children with cancer and their journeys. God bless and protect each and everyone. I pray for the parents who mourn.

Mobile Dry Cleaning -An Intro

Machines may last for years but their components wear out faster. Replacement is the standard fix but did you know you can get old parts looking and working like new through dry cleaning? Common components like air filters stand to benefit much because they’re typically discarded once they’ve developed rust and gathered dirt.Have a Peek at this Web-site mobile dry clean service

It’s true, new components work perfectly and in the event that cleaning can’t help or in cases where they’ve become too worn out, replacement is the only answer. However, more times than most, a simple dry cleaning job can restore them close to 100 percent functionality, saving you cash and keeping landfills a little freer of trash.

So how does dry cleaning work? And is it better than traditional wet cleaning?
Dry cleaning differs from conventional fabric dry cleaning in that it doesn’t use chemicals which makes it a totally dry process. It relies instead on vibrations, vacuum and compressed air. The vibrations dislodge dirt, rust and corrosion similar to ultrasonic cleaning (but also without the use of water) while compressed air and vacuum extract particulates.

As for the question of how the process stacks up against wet cleaning, dry cleaning doesn’t reduce the quality and efficiency of air filters. Granted, wet cleaning has many perks such as removing contaminants completely and keeping surfaces extremely clean with the help of water. However, it’s a proven fact that it significantly reduces air filter integrity so reuse is a problem. Moreover, wet cleaning requires copious amounts of water which is scare as we all know.

But perhaps the biggest benefit dry cleaning boasts is the lack of waste generated. Water and chemicals aren’t used so there’s no question of having to dispose waste. Plus, the fact that the cleaned filters can be used without a hitch means landfill waste is not added to.

Illamasqua Cream Foundation

I, along with the rest of the beauty world spent a little too much in the recent Illamasqua sale. I picked up a few bits which you can see here and have well and truly fallen head over heels in love for this make up brand.
I'm not usually one to use a cream foundation but it was cheap and I can't say no, so this fell into the online shopping bag and was delivered a few days later. Illamasqua's delivery time is really impressive. Free delivery takes 2-4 days and you get a text with an estimated delivery time which I loved.

I picked up this in the shade 115 which is pretty pale as I'm slightly darker than a ghost. I've been using this with the sponge that it came with to blend into my skin. It applies smoothly and leaves a really soft finish but you do need to blend, blend, blend as it takes a little while to get the right coverage I like quite a full coverage so if that isn't for you, you may find it a little easier to get a lighter coverage.
I get a bit of shine towards the end of the day on my t-zone so I did need a little top up with some powder but that's no different to my usual foundation. Overall I'm really happy with this purchase and I love Illamasqua's signature black packaging. This also comes with a good sized mirror inside.
The cream foundation is still available on the Illamasqua website for £23.00.

  1. You know what I have never bought anything from Illamasqua before! I think this now needs to change!!! lol x

  2. By the time I caught wind of the illamasqua sale all the good stuff in my shade has gone - damn faulty Internet! Looks amazing though

    Katy x

    1. I wasn't too sure of my shade so I guessed haha can't wait for the next one xx

  3. I definitely need to get my mitts on some Illamasqua! It all looks gorgeous! X

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my blog and post a comment <3

Yep, I got hosed. I fully expected to, but I did not think it would happen quite the way it did. After deciding last night that the house was just too hot to sleep in another night. I sent the family to a local hotel and followed as soon as I could after I took care of some business at home. I had to leave our dog so I opened the tops of our windows, turned on all the fans, and filled her bowl with ice before I left. It was not an optimal situation, but it was the best I could do given the tools at hand.

Today, a called a service technician to the house and he spent all of about 15 minutes fixing the problem. I knew what was wrong but I did not know how to get the capacitor to fix the problem. None of the supply houses I called had the part or, if they did have the part, they could not sell it to me. I was left paying the $258.00 dollars to the guy to replace a $30.00 part in less time that it normally takes me to shower in the morning. Add the money I spent on the hotel room and the $30.00 capacitor that I could have replaced myself ended up costing me over $450.00. I won’t even discuss the interest I will be paying since I had to put that repair on credit.

The “Kick in the Nuts Elves” strike again. They have visited me so often in the past few years that I don’t think I will be able to have another child. My parts are completely smashed to pieces. I guess it is OK though as I wouldn’t wish my luck on any more offspring. It is unfair enough that my daughter will have to live with it.

The house was cooling down as I left, but it will be a while before it recovers from the 90+ degree temperatures it has seen the past few days. I am moving north one day folks. You can just about count on it.

And now for something completely different.

I finished Phantom by Terry Goodkind last week. It was a great book filled with plenty of action and drama and I am REALLY looking forward to the final entry in the series this November. Can you say birthday present? Today I am about halfway through Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. I should have it done by the weekend and then it is on to Stephen King’s Blaze. This is a previously unreleased Richard Bachman book so I hope it has some of the rawness of the original Backman books.

Finally, I fixed my RSS feed so that the paragraph breaks work correctly. I did not know that there was a problem so if you have been reading this site through Google reader or something similar and was curious about the single LONG paragraphs, it should be fixed now. Sorry about the issue. You will have to unsubscribe and resubscribe to the feed to get it to work properly.

Hosed — 2 Comments

  1. It’s still showing up as one long paragraph in my Google Reader. That’s OK, I understand it is a failing of the software and not your composition. Your typos are another matter;)
    Not that I have much room to talk. I got Ds and Fs in spelling and hand writing in Elementary school.

  2. Yes, yes, I don’t edit and I should. Hard enough to get stuff posted at all these days. I did make an edit pass just a minute ago. That entry was pretty bad even with my low standards.
    If you unsubscribe and resubscribe in the Google reader I think it fixes the problem. It works for me now.

Cozification: 7 Steps to Your Coziest Home Yet

Cozification: 7 Steps to Your Coziest Home Yet

Nancy Mitchell
Feb 6, 2012

For years I've been striving, in my decor, for a certain aesthetic perfection. I've collected many images of rooms that are grand and lovely. But lately something different is happening - I find myself drawn more and more to spaces that are small, and warm, and comfortable. The thing is, houses are not just for looking at; they're for living in. And a truly cozy house - one that meets your needs well, and invites visitors in - will be beautiful as well.

So my goals have changed a little: from beautification to cozy-fication. If you, too, crave something warm and homey, here are a few ideas for getting the look that says: "Come in. Stay a while."

1. Look for furniture that is 'curl-upabble'.
There's often a bit of a gap between furniture that is lovely to look upon, and furniture that is lovely to sit upon. Ideally, the perfect sofa would strike a balance between the two. But if you're truly dedicated to coziness, before purchasing anything designed for sitting, you must consider its curl-uppability. "Can I see myself curled up on this sofa of a Sunday afternoon, feet sunk deep in the cushions, reading a book and drinking tea?" If the answer is no - keep looking.

2. Mix it up a little.
"Don't buy all your furniture from one store," the old adage goes, "unless you want your house to look like a furniture store." Furniture stores are lovely, but they are not inviting. To get away from the show-house look, mix together pieces from different styles. When considering things together, think less about what "matches" and more about what "goes". Mixing dissimilar pieces creates visual texture, which will make any space more inviting and more cozy.

3. Fill your house with things you would want to touch.
An old leather chair, a worn wood table, a fluffy throw, a patterned rug - items with lots of texture, that are interesting to touch and hold, add warmth to a room.

4. Use warm colors.
Until I started serious home improvements and became a student of the paint chips at Lowe's, it did not occur to me that every color has a "mood". Cooler colors make a space feel larger and airier. Warm colors do the oppsite - they make a space feel smaller and cozier. Every color, even whites and blacks, can have cool or warm undertones.

5. Lighting, lighting, lighting.
One of the most important factors in how a room looks is something most people usually don't even think about: light. Sometimes I find myself drooling over a beautiful image in a magazine, only to realize - "I don't like the stuff in this room. I like the light." It's especially important in a living room to have multiple light sources - brighter ones for larger gatherings, smaller ones for more intimate gatherings or a night in. Table lamps bring lighting down to a human level and give big rooms a sense of scale.

6. Switch 'cool' light bulbs for 'warm' ones.
Tiny investment, minimal work, nearly instant cozification.

7. Live with the things you love.
My collection of cocktail books. The old rotary phone from my grandmother's house. The license plate from my first car. All these things make my house feel like home because they remind me of people and things I love. When I'm at home, I feel that it is a place where I truly belong. And that's the whole idea of coziness - that rooms are made for people.

Top 10: Well-Designed Ceiling Fans

Top 10: Well-Designed Ceiling Fans

Jonathan B.
Aug 29, 2007

Finding an attractive ceiling fan is not easy. (This does not apply if your idea of attractive includes "Plantation Faux Leather with Brushed Antique Brass Trim" or "Tiffany Charmaigne Craftsman Oil Rubbed Bronze"; in that case, you're in luck.)

Here are ten of the most attractive (or should that be least offensive?) ceiling fans we've found in our travels. Number ten is a remote control, partially because we had a hard time finding ten attractive ceiling fans, and partially because with a remote control, you'll actually use a ceiling fan to stay comfortable. Using a ceiling fan saves energy in the summer and can help you feel more comfortable year-round.

Blow Ceiling Fan -- floppy blades!
Modern Fan Co. (One brand, lots of fans, all modern.) Available at DWR and ylighting.
Artemis from Minka Aire (pictured above.) We found the best price at Lamps Plus.
Harbor Breeze Ceiling Fan from Lowes (Black makes it the good kind of generic.)
Industrial Style Cool Titanium and Brushed Steel.

36" Matthews Duplo Dinamico Bronze Metal Standard: Dual fan, retro cool.
Minka Aire Como: Big, but fairly simple.
Minka Aire Flyte: Deco Style.
• For the modern adobe (or craftsman): Casa Surveyor.
Universal Fan Remote Control.

Ask a Question

Can I add a custom column in a graph report in StruxureWare Data Center Expert?

Custom column not shown in a graph report in StruxureWare Data Center Expert

Product Line:

StruxureWare Data Center Expert

StruxureWare Data Center Expert 7.2.2 and earlier

This was by design as columns do not show up in a graph, only in the legend. They can be added to both the summary report as well as the table report.

A feature added in  StruxureWare Data Center Expert 7.2 which should give the information on the graph, just in a slightly different way than using the 'Configure Column' option.

1. Create a new Custom Property key.
2. Use the Custom Property Editor to edit the custom fields for the Sensors of each Device.
3. Go to Client Preferences -->Custom Property Settings --> and select the Custom Property field to be appended to the sensor label.

Formatted similar to "sensor - custom property". the hover-over on the graph itself will also show the name of the sensor with the custom property. In the example below, the room number of 111 was appended to the input voltage sensor on a UPS.
