Disneyland Londres

"Name: Disneyland London.

Age: Not yet.

Appearance: Not yet.

Wait. Are we just turning London into Disneyland? Have Dave & Co got bored with selling it off piecemeal and decided just to go for it? No. A 388-acre theme park is being built by Kuwaiti European Holdings, which has signed a deal with Paramount Pictures.

So – not Disney then? No. And not in London either.

Oh. Where? Kent.

All of Kent? Are we paving England’s paradise and putting up a parking lot plus a variety of family attractions? No, only the Swanscombe peninsula, a patch of all but wasteland between Gravesend and Dartford. But near Ebbsfleet International train station, so you can stop off on your way to Paris.

Disneyland Paris? Maybe.

So, what will Paramount Peninsula sport? Rumours abound, but it’s not clear yet. Europe’s largest water park, possibly.

Ooh .…! Several rollercoasters, musical venues, theatres, cinemas, restaurants and 5,000 hotel rooms to accommodate the 50,000 visitors a day they hope to attract.

Ahhh …! Or nothing.

What? Could be nothing at all.

Why? Oh, you know, the usual stuff. Businesses already there complaining about having to move …

Go on. Plus, an accounting error by one of the companies involved delayed things for a while.

What kind of error? London Resort Company Holdings said it had £291,000 in cash assets, but when it looked in its piggy bank or under the mattress or wherever it was, it found it had only £952.

So they rounded up. What men of vision haven’t? Well, things are back on track now. Except they haven’t got planning approval for anything yet.

Will they, do you think? It would be a £2bn project bringing an estimated 27,000 jobs to the region, so there’s every chance Sevenoaks district council will find a way to bring Not-Disneyland to Kent.

And when can we have our first go on the Indiana Jones Temple of Doom Big Boulder Thing ride? Buy a ticket to the Top Gun aerodrome? Take a seat in the Subsidiary of Viacom theatre and watch Fatal Attraction: the Musical, starring whoever would otherwise be in rehab at the moment as Michael Douglas and Glenn Close? Swanscombe should be converted into a land of dreams by 2021. Book your all-day passes now.

Do say: “There can never be too many magic kingdoms!”

Don’t say: “I am never going to Ebbsfleet.”

Posole, originally from Jalisco, Mexico, is traditionally served around Christmastime. It's so tasty and--with a few convenience items like canned hominy and chili powder--easy to make that we like it any time of year. Shredded cheese, cilantro or thinly sliced radishes are traditional toppings for this stew.

Ingredient Checklist

Instructions Checklist
  • Toast oregano in a small dry skillet over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate to cool. Combine 1/2 teaspoon toasted oregano and 2 tablespoons onion in a small bowl.

  • Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining 6 tablespoons onion and salt; cover and cook over medium heat until the onions are translucent, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon toasted oregano and chili powder and cook for 1 minute. Add broth and hominy, bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Add beans and chicken; return to a simmer and cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the middle, about 5 minutes. Top with cabbage and the reserved onion-oregano mixture. Serve with lime wedges.

Make Ahead Tip: Add all ingredients except the reserved oregano-onion mixture, cabbage and lime wedges. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat and garnish before serving.

Note: Hominy is white or yellow corn that has been treated with lime to remove the tough hull and germ. Dried, ground hominy is the main ingredient in grits. Canned, cooked hominy can be found in the Latin section of large supermarkets--near the beans--or at Latin markets.

Wycliffe and the Cycle of Death

A completely addictive English cosy murder mystery. Perfect for fans of Betty Rowlands and LJ Ross.

W.J. Burley,

Wycliffe and the Cycle of Death: A completely addictive English cosy murder mystery. Perfect for fans of Betty Rowlands and LJ Ross.

A respectable bookseller is found bludgeoned and strangled and it's up to Chief Superintendent Wycliffe to find out why . . .

When Matthew Glynn is murdered, Wycliffe is mystified. Why would anyone want to kill him? But a look at Glynn's background reveals tension within the family. Alfred Glynn, an eccentric recluse, has born a grudge against his brother for years. The other brother, Maurice, argued bitterly with Matthew over the sale of family land. His sister Sara is caught out in several crucial lies to the police. Add to this a discontented son, the discovery of valuable documents in the bookseller's safe, and the mysterious, still unexplained disappearance of Matthew's wife years earlier, and Wycliffe faces one of his most impenetrable cases yet.

And then another Glynn dies . . .

Description of key information

Additional information

1,3 -butadiene has a low potential for bioaccumulation, with a BCF of 9.8 calculated using the log Kow. As 1,3 -butadiene is a gas that will rapidly volatilize from the aquatic environment, direct and indirect exposure in the aquatic environment is unlikely.

The screening criterion for bioaccumulation in the PBT assessment is that a substance with a log Kow of ≤4.5 is not B or vB. The measured log Kow of 1.99 indicates that 1,3-butadiene does not exceed the screening criteria for bioaccumulation stipulated in ECHA’s Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment - Part C: PBT Assessment (2008). Therefore, 1,3-butadiene is not considered to be bioaccumulative (B) or very bioaccumulative (vB).

Dear Mr. Paulson, Re Your Recent NY Times Op-Ed about Mass Extinction

10/4/21  Dear Mr. Paulson,  You arguably are one of the most powerful, famous, and networked men in the world, with many important accomplishments. I am the completely ordinary, middle class, volunteer steward of 53 acres of publicly owned, remnant floodplain woodland situated on the banks of the Des Plaines River. Based on your eponymously named Institute’s website, you apparently spend much of your time as a “thought leader” working to somehow combine free-market growth with the urgent necessity to mitigate carbon emissions and save biodiversity, while I spend many days studying, thinking about, and working, hands-on, to protect and increase the biodiversity of this small patch of actual land. For example, this very morning, before breakfast, before I was aware of your op-ed in the New York Times discussing solutions to the epochal, mass extinction event humanity is causing, I read a report about the likely effects of climate change in Illinois, including the poor adaptation prospec

Blooms Day Since 1904

James Joyce was not a gardener. His subject matter was lower-middle-class Dublin at the turn of the twentieth century and his explorations of that city's life form some of the greatest literature written in English: modern, difficult, anti-romantic, and dense with quotation and allusion. If you should say "I had an epiphany," you will echo Joyce. He took the word out of its religious context and made it into a moment of extreme insight--as though visited from above--that first his characters experienced in Dubliners, and now, over a hundred years later, all of us still experience from time to time.

If you have  an epiphany out in the garden on a fine June 16, you have entered Joyce's world, even if you've never read Dubliners or Ulysses. On this day people worldwide celebrate Blooms Day, comemorating June 16, 1904, the day on which the events of Ulysses take place, the day during which  Leopold Bloom perambulates about Dublin (you can find more information at the James Joyce Centre). This morning I pulled out my old copy of Ulysses and was amused to find this note on the flyleaf: "Started Blooms Day, 1983 and completed August 15, 1983. Adrian Ayres." And notes throughout. So diligent I was then.

Of course mid-June's often delightful weather is a highlight of our year, at least in the northern hemisphere. In my garden, some things are in flower that have been blooming here perhaps since my house was built in 1904. They include orange daylilies (or "grandma lilies"); tall, very fragrant white lilies; and Creeping Bellflower--all fairly degage and, some think, weedy. They're also pretty, and comemorate the first and subsequent owners who always gardened well and kept the soil in good shape.

Other non-natives include: Stargazer Lilies, Geranium sanguinum 'striatum,' Rose Campion (Lychnis coronaria), and Nepeta.

Natives include: Coreopsis, Beebalm (Monarda didyma; M. bradburiana is done), Purple Coneflower, Celandine Poppy (repeat), Blue-eyed Grass (Sisyrinchium augustifolium), Purple Milkweed (Asclepias purpurascens) and  and the startlingly red and yellow Indian Pink (Spigelia marilandica).

Ate the first ripe raspberry yesterday. It's time to get some jars and lids for making jam.

Happy Blooms Day to all.

Dear Adrian, I very much enjoyed all the literary references in this posting.

What a marvellous variety of midsummer flowers you have!
Thanks, Edith, it was sparked by your last post that began with Irish writers.

I linked back to your poetry post today. We love words.

Loved Ulysses and interested to hear of Blooms Day. I live in the Southern Hemisphere but June is my perfect gardening time as is a struggle with the heat in summer. For me Blooms Day is also the perfect time in the garden.
We were blessed to have traveled to Dublin and heard many wonderful things about James Joyce. I grew Coreopsis and Purple Coneflower in my previous home, which makes me wonder why I don't have any in my current home? I need to rethink my garden :-)

Adrian, I love the fact that you waited a day and did your bloom post on Blooms Day. Delightful! -Jean
Elephant's Eye, yes, words and how they help us reconnect to the world in new ways.

Greenearth, I'm glad to hear from someone else who has read it. I have much to learn about other parts of the world.

Noelle, I hope to go to Dublin someday. The nice thing about Coreopsis and Coneflower (besides being so easy), is their attraction for bees and butterflies.

Jean, thanks.

Energy Rebates, Financing & Tax Credit Options

With so many energy rebate programs and constantly changing requirements, it’s no wonder you can feel overwhelmed sorting through the options. At Ecotelligent Homes, we help our customers easily take advantage of local Michigan energy rebates, federal energy efficiency tax credits, and financing options.

What are the benefits of Home Performance Rebate Programs?

Home performance energy rebate programs generally offer a higher rebate dollar amount, sometimes more than double the value, to customers compared to standard insulation or heating and cooling rebate programs. The utility rewards customers for being educated consumers and installing improvements based on the facts and findings of a Comprehensive Home Energy Audit, and the utility companies recognize that Home Performance Contractors are held to the industry’s highest quality standards.

What specific energy rebates are available?

Painting & Decorating

Is it time to call the decorators?

Painting and decorating come hand in hand with owning a property. There is no better way to freshen up your home than with a fresh coat of paint or some fancy new wallpaper.

Did you know? Your home should be redecorated externally over 3-5 years depending on how much it is exposed to the weather.

There is a lot to be considered when choosing a colour scheme and many people still tend to play it safe rather than try something new. However, you don’t have to go too far out of your comfort zone to embrace the latest styles. Nowadays, the internet is awash with fabulous ideas, and the mobile app Pinterest gives you hundreds of ideas at the tip of your fingers. So many colours are available, and the colour cards and tester pots allow you to experiment before making the final decision. Decorating your home will always come down to personal taste, but we are here to help when asked.

Painting and decorating cannot be avoided when you own a property. Over the years, the internal walls pick up all types of scuffs and marks, sticky fingerprints and odd stains. These can soon have your home looking dull and unloved.

Externally, painted brickwork or render soon pick up weather stains and start to look shabby and unkempt. Traditional wooden windows need repairs and maintenance after being exposed to the elements, and paintwork needs attention. When your home gets to this stage (or ideally sooner), it is time to call in the decorators to give your home a makeover. It is amazing what a lick of paint can do visually, and it’ll increase the value of your home and the curb side appeal. It will put a smile on your face too. It is important to realise that if left too late, then repairs and maintenance will need to be carried out before painting.

Here at Eco Tiffin, we have a brilliant team of neat, attentive decorators ready to make your home feel new again. From our first free consultation to the completed result, we'll be on hand to ensure that your painting and decorating project runs smoothly and is stress-free.

  • Interior & exterior
  • Refurbishments
  • Residential & commercial
  • High-quality work guaranteed
  • Good quality materials

Good preparation is key to a good quality decorating job

Replaced Garage

Robert and the team replaced my old garage (with an asbestos roof) with a very nice larger garage. Everything was done when they said it would be. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely use Tiffin again.

Barbara, Hertfordshire

Highly Recommended

Robert Tiffin successfully diagnosed and treated the increasing damp in the cellar of our old house, something several previous firms had failed to do. He was professional and efficient and provided an excellent report.

Susan, Middlesex

Excellent Work

Tiffin handled all the aspects of the job really well, keeping us informed and sourcing high quality materials. They did a good job of organising all the various trades to do their parts in an efficient manner.

Matt P, Buckinghamshire

Professional and polite service, fair and reasonable price

The “Tiffin difference” was immediately noticeable. We were left with a strong sense that Robert and the team were professional and reliable in their approach. We will be using Tiffin for our next project.

Craig R, Hertfordshire

Unhesitatingly Recommended

Robert Tiffin is helpful and professional. His advice is sound and he will save you money where he can. Not surprisingly, the people he employs are also hard working and professional. Schedules are maintained and when work is completed everywhere is left clean and tidy. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

John D, Buckinghamshire

Excellent advice on cause of damp in converted block of flats and successful repairs too. Extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of causes of building failure and damage and reinstatement for insurance purposes too. Highly recommended.

Steven Lazarus, London

Professional firm with high standards

Eco Tiffin sorted out my damp problem in an outbuilding, insulated and decorated it, turning it into a pleasant and very usable storeroom. Their knowledge and experience inspired confidence, and I felt that I was given honest advice about the most sensible way to pursue this project, without wasting money unnecessarily.

Trends Watch: August 24, 2017

August 24, 2017

By Elana Margulies-Snyderman

EisnerAmper’s Trends Watch is a weekly entry to our Alternative Investments Intelligence blog, featuring the views and insights of executives from alternative investment firms. If you’re interested in being featured, please contact Elana Margulies-Snyderman.

This week, Elana talks to Mike Melissinos, CEO of Melissinos Trading.

What is your outlook for CTAs ?

I believe we’re living through the dark ages for CTAs. Low volatility and high inter-market correlation since the financial crisis has acted as a double-whammy for trend following strategies. Below-average performance since 2011 combined with a relentless equities bull market has forced many CTAs to alter their strategies a bit - increasing equities allocations within their portfolios, incorporating vol-targeting mechanisms to take advantage of a low-volatility environment and even adding other strategies to complement their main trend following strategy. Despite this, investors continue to allocate money to CTAs. Mostly, I believe this is because they fear a reversal in equities and want a systematic strategy with a history of performing well in bear markets and other crises.

I believe sluggish performance will persist as long as market volatility remains low, if we oscillate between “risk on, risk off” where inter-market correlation is high and assets continue coming into CTAs. Historically, institutional investors have shunned CTAs during raging equity bull markets (because who wants to reduce their position in equities during a major bull market?). Since the financial crisis, they’re not shunning CTAs so I believe we have a lot of congestion and too many trend followers trying to get in and out of the same markets around the same time. This creates whipsaws.

One thing I’m watching for is the money flows in and out of CTAs. I think we’ll get to a point where institutions will have had enough with the sluggish performance and prefer to invest in other strategies. When that happens, I think CTA performance will improve.

What is your outlook for the economy?

Outside of a few pockets of innovation, I believe we’re going to be stuck in a stagnant economy for a long time. The financial crisis really shook people up. The policy-makers chose to address their fear of another economic collapse by instituting more regulation and monetary policy. This has benefited a few people and industries, namely those with relationships with government. The free-competition sector is shrinking under the weight of regulation and taxes. Without a thriving free-competition sector, we do not get innovation and better products at a lower cost.

Today, we’re getting the opposite - lower quality products at higher prices. One area that’s exempt from this is technology. It has not been regulated to death, but many other industries have - education, transportation, healthcare, defense, finance, etc. The opportunity for people to start businesses in these industries is very low. The technology sector is the last remaining survivor of the free-competition economy.

If we do not have a thriving free-competition economy, we do not improve our standard of living or increase GDP. If GDP struggles, the government collects less in taxes. When that happens, the government, unable to kick their spending habit, go to the Fed for money they’d like to spend. When this happens, we get inflation. Every dollar the government spends that it doesn’t “earn” from taxes creates inflation.

I don’t like the path we’re on. We’re stifling our creative juices in exchange for safety, welfare and free healthcare. This may feel good in the short term, but over time I see the wealth gap growing larger, the standard of living declining, taxes and regulations increasing, product quality declining and higher prices.

To get back to a free market that encourages competition, we have to reverse a lot of what we’ve done over the past 100 years - decrease regulations, taxes and disband the Fed. Sadly, I don’t see any of this happening.

What keeps you up at night?

Flash crashes and extreme volatility and unexpected policy changes.

Here’s an analogy for you: A guy walking his dog. Today, automated trading is the dog, except it’s not a dog but a cheetah. When it sees something it wants, it breaks loose and runs much faster than you can. As a result, these automated algorithms exacerbate price moves and can inflict major damage on people’s portfolios. We seem to get flash crashes and price shocks more and more these days. Most of the time, the damage is mostly contained to a particular market or stock. My fear is when everyone loses control of their cheetah on the leash.

Unexpected policy changes have always been a risk in the markets. The last major one we saw was in Q1 2015 when the Swiss National Bank removed the Franc’s peg to the Euro. Overnight, the Franc shot up 30% in several minutes. Without proper risk management, people can get wiped out. My fear is if policy changes occur on a more regular basis and investors lose trust in markets.

Looking forward to HK's next level of smart city development

December 21, 2020 10:17
Photo: HK Government

The long-awaited Smart City Blueprint for Hong Kong 2.0 ("Blueprint 2.0") was launched on 10 December 2020. There are 130 projects this time, including 70 projects first mentioned in the blueprint in 2017. It is indeed encouraging with the number of initiatives having doubled. However, under the fierce global competition today and coupled with the COVID-19 epidemic that seriously hit the local economy, we need to move quickly. Therefore, I would like to raise the following questions regarding the Blueprint 2.0, especially from the viewpoint of innovation and technology:

1）Open data from private organizations:

In July last year, the Secretary for Innovation and Technology responded to questions from members of the Legislative Council that apart from continuing to open up government data, the government would continue to encourage private organizations such as car parks to follow suit. In the newly launched Blueprint 2.0, the government repeated the same statement. Can the government set specific targets with certain check points in a timetable so that people can monitor the progress of work, without fearing these are just empty promises?

2）Spatial data sharing platform

The Common Spatial Data Infrastructure (CSDI), a one-stop data supermarket planned for officially launching in 2022, will facilitate the development of innovation and technology. At present, the Lands Department has set up a convenient and easy-to-use online map for nearly 100 public facilities, which is well received.

To make CSDI a success, the data open should comply with two basic principles: the data should be (1) in machine-readable format; and (2) linked to spatial and geographical location.

Therefore, the government should announce which departments and what datasets have been complied in the past 18 months; and their plans in the coming year. As such, we can see the joint efforts between various government departments, public and private organizations to enable us to enrich the content of our data platform accordingly, and at the same time encouraging connection with the public.

3）Interactive Map Dashboard

When the COVID-19 broke out in early February this year, rumours spread everywhere. Our group of information technology volunteers assisted the government in launching an interactive map dashboard of the epidemic. The map and figures make it easy for the public to understand the latest situation and grasp the true information, it was well received by the public.

Dashboards have been added to the Blueprint 2.0 website according to each of the smart city category which is mobility, living, environment, people, government and economy, but they do not completely fulfil the objectives of Blueprint 2.0.

For example, the objectives of the "Smart People" measures are to promote STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education, enhance scientific research capability, and promote entrepreneurship and innovation. However, only "Number of Persons Engaged Discharging Information Technology-Related Job Duties by Educational Attainment” and “Number of R&D Personnel” on the dashboard are related to “Smart People”, others like “Educational and Training Institutions by Level of Education” are clearly not the focus.

I suggest adding the following information:

ICT work

1. Number of persons employed in information and communication technology (ICT) sector (increase and decrease in high-tech industry such as electronics, biotechnology, telecommunications, as well as non-ICT companies);

2. Number of students enrolled in STEM courses in post-secondary education and the ratio of males to females;

3. Number of ICT/knowledge workers who immigrated from overseas and emigrated to other places;

4. Number of scientists, researchers and engineers.

Innovation capacity

1. Detail information of each youth entrepreneurial fund and scheme, such as investment amount, number of participants, number of new startups and job positions, and subsequent success rate (e.g. number of companies that last for several years or are acquired);

2. Updates of reindustrialization, such as investment, productivity, income, job vacancies, etc;

3. Number of major scientific and technological projects, number of successful patent applications;

4. Investment in scientific research by ICT and non-ICT industry.

Ideally, the above information shall reflect the situation of the past 5 to 10 years, allowing people to view the changes. As such, the dashboard not only facilitates the public to keep abreast of the latest development in innovation and technology, but it also measures whether the local economy matches the ideal structure of the innovation-driven new economy.

In this way, we can work in a concerted manner to promote Hong Kong's innovation and technology and the new economy. This will help promote public participation and take Hong Kong's smart city development to the next level.

Eric’s phone call to his boss went about as well as his visit to Patrick’s office. The young engineer knew his A-game hadn’t been good enough and was still reeling from getting checked by Purchasing. “Pick yourself up off the ice and get back to work,” Eric’s boss said. “Go talk to that company Elasto Proxy and get some answers to Patrick’s questions. Otherwise, you can forget about switching vendors.”

With a cup of coffee in one hand, Eric dialed Jenny-Lynn, his Elasto Proxy solutions provider. She picked up on the first ring and could tell by Eric’s voice that the young engineer had been through the wringer. Eric explained that he needed gasket prices and minimum order quantities (MOQs). Then he took another sip of coffee, paused, and asked if buying a gasket was really just about knowing these two numbers.

“No, it’s not,” Jenny-Lynn told the engineer. “Price and MOQ matter, of course, but your company also needs to think about true costs and manufacturing waste, especially with all of the rework you’ve been doing. Has anyone spoken to you about this before?” Eric couldn’t remember learning about this in any of his engineering classes, and price rather than true costs was his company cared about.

“True costs are the full scope of your manufacturing costs,” Jenny-Lynn explained. “Let’s keep things simple and stick to labor and materials. Labor is not just about the labor cost of the installer. It includes the cost of ordering, receiving, inventorying, and then delivering gaskets to the assembly line. There’s even a cost to maintaining vendors and inspecting the quality of gasket installation.”

Eric took another sip of coffee and asked Jenny-Lynn to continue.

“With your material costs,” she added, “it’s not just about installation either. Your true costs include material waste, such as when an installer makes a mis-cut and then discards a length of rubber. Here, it’s worth talking about MOQs – something you mentioned before. Buying more material than you need isn’t a good business strategy,” she added.

“That’s for sure,” Eric agreed. “When I met with our Purchasing Director, he told me he didn’t want a bunch of excess stock laying around because it ties up cash.”

“What else did say to you?”, Jenny-Lynn asked. “I think it would help to know all of his concerns.”

“Well,” Eric continued, “he got pretty upset about stock-outs. It wasn’t even the gaskets that bothered him, but all of the other rubber and plastic parts that he can’t get.”

“Interesting,” Jenny-Lynn said. “It sounds like your Purchasing Director has some real headaches. Did he mention any of the eight forms of manufacturing waste? They’re transportation, inventory, motion, waiting, over-production, over-processing, defects, and unused knowledge”.

“Whoah,” Eric laughed. “I liked it better when you talked about true costs and how they relate to labor and materials. This is all new to me. Still, manufacturing waste does seem like something that Patrick our Purchasing Director would understand. He’s the kind of guy who keeps aframed business school diploma on his wall.”

Now it was Jenny-Lynn’s turn to laugh. “You don’t have to be a B-school grad to understand this stuff. It still comes down to labor, materials, and manufacturing overhead – if it’s OK to introduce another term”.

Patrick said that it was and asked her to continue.

“With some numbers from your Operations Manager,” Jenny-Lynn continued, “ I bet you could convince Patrick to look at your company’s true costs because he seems like a guy who doesn’t like manufacturing waste – even though he’s part of the manufacturing overhead.”

“I’m not sure that Patrick likes much of anything,” Eric quipped.

They both laughed.

“Look,” Jenny-Lynn continued, “I’m willing to work with you on getting the information that you need from Operations. Would you commit to setting up a meeting with your Operations Manager and inviting me to it? We can do a video call – it’s something we do a lot at Elasto Proxy.”

Eric put down his coffee cup and smiled.

“Let’s do it,” he said. “I’ll set up a video call with Olivia. She’s our Operations Manager – a tough lady, but also fun to work with.”

    Monitored Fire Alarms

    How monitored fire alarms work

    If you’ve got a regular fire alarm system, you might think you’re protected, but what if no one is there to raise the alarm to the emergency services? Without fire alarm monitoring your standard alarm simply rings out while fire spreads undeterred.

    Your assets and property in London can be better protected with the installation of a monitored fire alarm (also referred to as Redcare monitoring); when a fire triggers the alarm it connects to our dedicated alarm receiving centre. Using a landline connection or wireless roaming, the signal alerts the emergency services immediately to take action.

    When your alarm is triggered

    • Your alarm is triggered by a fire
    • A signal is sent to the receiving centre via:
      • Either your landline
      • Or a secure wireless 4G network
    • The emergency services are alerted
    • Fires can be tackled quickly

    Without this monitoring system, you’re reliant on someone hearing your bells-only system out-of-hours and calling the emergency services, which could be too late to prevent widespread damage.

    The benefits of monitored alarm systems

    Can your business afford to be hit by fire? Many businesses don’t have a disaster recovery site, meaning operations grind to a halt and many businesses never recover. With Redcare monitored fire alarm systems from Elite Fire Protection you gain:

    • 24/7 coverage, 365 days a year
    • a swift and simple installation service
    • the benefit of our decades of experience
    • peace of mind that you’re protected

    Why choose Elite Fire for monitored fire alarms

    At Elite Fire Protection, we install Redcare Advanced Extra systems which use some of the latest technology for alarm signalling. Researched and developed heavily, Redcare is a reliable, monitored alarm signalling technology 30 years in the making. We supply and install these monitored fire alarm systems because we believe your business deserves to be protected at all times.

    Operating throughout London and the South East, we use our decades of experience and accredited engineers to help you keep your business safe. We’ll work closely with you to make sure you get the right service for you business.

    No matter what industry you operate in, if you’d like fire alarm monitoring to ensure immediate action is taken in the event of a fire – especially where your premises are left unattended – then contact our professional team today.

Byron Beauty Bar

Byron Beauty Bar

With a location like Byron Bay as a starting point it was natural to create a pampering salon with a very relaxed and easy vibe (and keep within a tight budget).

The existing brick  shell was painted white along with the polished concrete floor and the joinery was kept very simple and clean with the use of  plywood to warm the space.

Accents of blush pink and black were used throughout alongside large format  photographic artwork in keeping with the beach vibe.

Talking about sex

I’m 25, we’ve just been married a year, and I’m happy… but seriously disappointed by our sex life. It’s over too fast for me to climax. How do I tell my husband about this? I don’t want to break his heart or his pride.

Ok, this is difficult, but everyone has to learn to do it. By “it” I mean talking about sex, not just doing it. It’s best to choose a relaxed, semi-quiet time, when having sex is not on the agenda. I think it’s great to ask for permission to bring up a delicate topic and create a playful, non-anxious attitude in your own heart at the same time.

It takes a long time, sometimes a lifetime, to get full “ownership” of our sexuality. And 25 is still young for that level of maturity. Continue reading “Talking about sex”

‘We Will Be That Lantern on the Shore’

by Jessica Corbett

Immigrant rights advocates and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders from Nepal and Honduras—joined by Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) and Ayanna Pressley (Mass.)—rallied outside the White House on February 12th, to protest the Trump administration’s moves to revoke protected status from people residing in the United States due to dangerous conditions in their home countries.

Critics charge that the ongoing efforts to end TPS are motivated by President Donald Trump’s racism against “non-white, non-European immigrants.” The TPS holders, activists, and lawmakers who turned out for the March for TPS Justice despite the winter weather called on Congress to “take action to #SaveTPS and create permanent protections that give residency to immigrant youth and TPS holders.”

“We will be that lantern on the shore. We will be here in case of humanitarian disaster. We will be here in case of natural disaster, war, et cetera. We are a nation that turns peril into promise. We are a nation that builds from many, and we have to protect our basic character as a nation to be that,” Ocasio-Cortez told the crowd. “We are here to make sure that all TPS recipients become permanent members of the United States of América.”

“We are here to make sure that all TPS recipients become permanent members of the United States of América.”
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Pressley, for her part, said: “You are the true patriots, you are the true Americans, and we are not out here demanding charity—we are demanding what you have earned!”

The demonstration that kicked off at the White House at 9am local time followed the filing of a class-action lawsuit on Monday. The suit outlines the president’s racist push to end protections for Nepali and Honduran TPS holders, which could force the deportation of more than 100,000 people.

“The Trump administration’s plan to end TPS for Honduras and Nepal must be stopped before it causes immeasurable harm to TPS holders, their families, and their communities,” Jenny Zhao, staff attorney at Advancing Justice–Asian Law Caucus, warned in a statement.

Plaintiff Keshav Raj Bhattarai, a Nepali TPS holder and member of the rights group Adhikaar, declared: “I am proud to be a part of this lawsuit, for all the other Nepali TPS holders like me. With TPS I have been able to build a new life here with my family and I have a found a stable job.”

“When I see so many people’s lives at risk in losing TPS, I am troubled to see that this country would harm its hardworking workers and people,” Bhattarais added. “I wish to continue working to support this country, and also continue supporting the rebuilding of Nepal, which is still recovering from the earthquake.”

Many have argued that maintaining TPS for Nepalis impacted by the devastating 2015 earthquake is “a moral necessity,” and warned that returning Hondurans to a nation destabilized in part by U.S. actions would mean that “families, including children who are U.S. citizens, could risk threats, kidnapping, gender-based violence, or even death.”

The suit filed Monday in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California—by a coalition of legal advocacy groups, on behalf of six adults with TPS and two U.S. citizen children of TPS holders—aims to ensure the continued safety of all people from those countries currently residing in the U.S. through the program.

The filing follows an “incredible” court victory in October, when a federal judge issued a temporary injunction blocking the administration from ending protections for more than 300,000 TPS holders from El Salvador, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Sudan—agreeing with plaintiffs’ attorneys that “not only is there direct evidence of animus, but there is also circumstantial evidence of race being a motivating factor” for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), under Trump, refusing to renew protections.

“The Trump administration is illegally trying to gut the humanitarian TPS program, but TPS holders are fighting back,” concluded Jessica Bansal, co-legal director of National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON). “They have already won a temporary reprieve for hundreds of thousands of TPS holders. With [Monday’s] filing, they seek to protect tens of thousands more.”

high saturation material for round rod

high saturation material for round rod

high saturation material for round rod

I'm looking at having to design a custom relay with not a lot of space for magnetics. I have space for a long coil and am looking to drive it with as much flux density as possible. For production, I'm guessing that a powder metal part is the way to go.  For prototyping, what would be a good choice for about a 3/8 diameter armature round?  I'll be turning part of it down and am o.k. with having to anneal it afterwords.

RE: high saturation material for round rod

Max B at what field level?
It is tough to beat a low carbon steel like 1002 if the filed is low.
If the initial perm is not an issue then using 1020 will work just as well.
PM tends to have lower B because the density is less.

RE: high saturation material for round rod

PM is not the way to go for high flux density as Ed said.  Pure iron is good except for low resistivity, may not be important if you are not trying to work at high frequency.  If you want the highest possible flux density you need a high H field and iron-cobalt.  There are several grades available from Cartech & VACUUMSCHMELZE.  You won't like the price.

The Help for this program was created in Windows Help format, which depends on a feature that isn't included in this version of Windows.

RE: high saturation material for round rod

Thanks guys.  A high permeability would be nice also, but high saturation limit is more important.  I think I have enough height available to get a long coil and a high number of amp-turns.

It will be a DC voltage on the coil.  I have a request in to Cartech for suggested materials.  I'll take a look at VACUUMSCHMELZE.

RE: high saturation material for round rod

If the core is long you  may be able to get away with making the upper 2/3 from steel and the bottom 1/3 from FeCo.  That might help save money if you need to make a bunch of these.  I have seen pole tips brazed on, and that cycle used for post machining stress relief.

Sticky situation

Sticky situation

Sticky situation

I have a project that I was asked a few month ago to complete for a client (an architect). The client didn’t ask for a proposal. The project was a 28’ square wood framed garage that had a clear height of 17’. The project had its problems to solve and once we were done, I invoiced for the work completed to date (my hourly rate x the hours it took to complete the project). Everything was great (except my invoice is over 4 months old and remains unpaid see below).

Then the owner, a local jurisdiction, decided that the wood framed building was too expensive and decided on purchasing a metal building of the same size. So now the client has come back to have the foundation design. Thing is, he doesn’t want to pay me for the time it takes to complete this revision to the design (the revision will take about as much time as the original scope of work).

To make matters slightly more complicated, the owner paid my client 50% of the original invoice stating they will pay the other ½ when the building arrives. So now I’m sitting here with 50% of my invoice paid (in a check I haven’t cashed) being asked to redesign the foundation with the potential of not being compensated for my time associated with the revision.

I am thinking about sending the check back to the client and telling him that I am not interested in continuing on with the project and to find another engineer. However, I will be out the time I spent working on the project to begin with. I’m also considering depositing the check and telling the client the same thing, only this time I will be out ½ of my time.

What would others do in this instance?

Unfortunately we literally fighting city hall. I have no interest in doing work for an owner who doesn't compensate their sub contractors for the time it takes to do the work, and when they do compensate they only want to pay a portion of the original contract.

RE: Sticky situation

I suppose it depends on if you have a written contract about what you'd get paid for and whether it's a big enough amount to sue for, on either side. If the contract doesn't exist or isn't clear you may need a lawyer who will be kind if they don't point out that having a lawyer review the contract before the work would save the aggravation you have now.

Your position is similar to that which any number of small businesses face where ungrateful customers show how much they care by unilaterally changing their side of the deal. You may be able to get the remainder in small claims court; typically no lawyer is allowed to argue the case there, but you can get advice before hand.

Best of luck.

RE: Sticky situation

Everything was great (except my invoice is over 4 months old and remains unpaid see below).

So now I’m sitting here with 50% of my invoice paid (in a check I haven’t cashed)

So please clarify - have you been paid or not to 50%? I'm confused.

RE: Sticky situation

I was paid 50% but the check arrived the day after the client said he wanted me to do the work and not bill him. The check is sitting on my desk.

RE: Sticky situation

If the client paying the bill is government, best to just send them the final bill as it is appropriate at the end with the appropriate billing description that will get you your money and wrap things up. Government always pays their bills.

RE: Sticky situation

Advanced disclosure - my opinion is that of a PE with 9 whole years of experience - treat it as such.

If it was me, I would deposit the check first regardless - you've done the work and produced the original design & drawings as agreed - at least you can collect SOMETHING for your trouble - maybe you get the rest later or maybe you don't...time will tell. An aside, one thing I do have in my standard contract with this exact situation in mind is a statement along the lines of "all checks are deposited when received regardless of status of invoice" with the hope that it covers me from these sort of shenanigans (it hasn't been tested yet though and obviously, I am not a lawyer...).

Regarding the rest...I assume you have a contract in place? If not, a letter agreement at minimum that spells out your expected services and the hourly rate for services above/beyond those noted? I suspect in this situation you will end up asking yourself how badly you want to work for these joker in the future. Based on purely the exchange described, it doesn't seem like they have good contract/client management skills (my uninformed opinion) so if it was me, I'd probably agree to do the revision (at my risk) but only give them the final stamped drawings (hard-copies only, no .pdf's) on the condition that I was handed a check for the balance of my invoice at the time of delivery. If they don't pay then hopefully you're only out a few thousand that you may be able to lien against the finished structure.

Good luck Steel - Rooting for you...

RE: Sticky situation

rule 1 - get all agreements in writing
rule 2 - don't do any work without completing rule 1 first (also see rule 3)
rule 3 - change orders require another written agreement to alter the first one

you do realize that your E&O insurance generally may not cover work that is not done without a written agreement?

RE: Sticky situation

I would cash the check, do the redesign and hold off on giving them drawings until they pay the remainder. Then I would never work with them again...

Also, "Good papers make good friends"

RE: Sticky situation

What njlutzwe said. I would only add to do the redesign if you literally had nothing better to do. That includes watching your backlog of YouTube videos (work related or not) and organizing your filing system.

If you are offended by the things I say, imagine the stuff I hold back.

RE: Sticky situation

Wow, the great Casseopeia, I feel honored.

Still trying to work this out with the client. Calls and emails have tone unreturned. I don’t necessarily want to lose the client, but if it happens it happens.

After 4 years of piling projects all over my desk/floor I spent a day last week filing everything away. I could also get lost in YouTube for days.

RE: Sticky situation

A lesson to remember. Do 1, 2, 3 and 4. Refer to the back of the the Proposal which has your standard "Limit of Liability Clause" (that from here on is always there).

RE: Sticky situation

Great post by CVG. I would,

1) cash check I have
2) submit change order for the revision
3) sit on my hands until the change order is authorized
4) conduct collections on remaining 50% already owed regardless of change order/revision

RE: Sticky situation

I would cash the check, issue them a change order, and do no work until both the change order is approved and the remaining 50% is paid. I'd tell them to take the money to pay me out of the cost savings from switching from wood to metal. If they said the savings aren't there, then I'd recommend they stick with the original design.

That is, of course, presuming it's a one-off client. If it's a regular client with whom I have a long standing relationship, and intend to get future work from, I would let them know I would ordinarily do what I outline above, and then offer to cut them some sort of deal this one time only, on the premise that I get more work in the future.

I have some clients, with whom the scope of work gets heavily manipulated by their client totally out of their hands, and for those clients I just charge enough up front to cover the possibility that things might change. Eat it once and know better next time can sometimes go a long way towards building a client relationship. Write it off to marketing.

So it really depends on how much you value the client over the money.

RE: Sticky situation

I would probably cash the check and do the balance of the work. However, I would provide the information in PDF format and password protect the file so that they can't print until you provide the password or send them a file that is not password protected. I would not provide that password information until final balance is paid in full.

RE: Sticky situation

I thought I had updated this thread but I guess I didn't.

So in the end I ended up cashing the check and dug in my heals and got the architect to accept a change order for the work performed in writing. The architect accepted the change order and I performed the additional work. Now all I need is payment for the completed work. Who knows if that will happen, but at least I now have everything documented.

- BRUNEI is a small country located in South East Asia and rich in oil and gas which makes it one of the highest per capita incomes in the world.

However, in this country organised in the form of a sultanate, the more backward version of Islam prevails in its laws. Sharia law governs its rules and there is a death penalty for stoning anyone who engages in homosexual relations, falls into adultery or insults the prophet Mohammed, amputation of hands and feet from thieves or public flogging as punishment for abortion, making it the first country in Southeast Asia to impose Sharia law at the national level in its criminal regulation. -

- ECUADOR was the first country in the world to recognise the rights of nature in its constitution, which grants it the status of rights holder. Also it includes and guarantees various collective rights of its indigenous and afro-Ecuatorian peoples, such as the right to maintain ancestral possession of community lands, to be consulted on plans and programmes for prospecting and exploiting non-renewable resources that are on their lands and that may affect them environmentally or culturally, not to be displaced from their lands, or to collective intellectual property of their anecdotal knowledge, among others.

The city of Quito, sheltered by the Virgin of Panecillo, is the highest capital in the world, located at 2,850 meters above sea level. Unlike what many people think, La Paz is not the capital of Bolivia but Sucre.

Furthermore, research has established the point of origin of cocoa in the Upper Amazon more than 5,000 years ago. -
