Big White is a ski resort that lives up to its name. Like many of its counterparts in British Columbia, the upper mountain gets pummeled by Pacific storms leaving trees and lifts looking like “snow ghosts” all winter. On January 27th, Doppelmayr issued a service bulletin due to cracks found on the crossarms of depression towers of lifts in California, Colorado and New Hampshire. Big White crews found damage to tower 14 of the Gem Lake Express and took the lift out of service on January 28th.
More than 8,000 feet long and rising 2,300 feet, Gem Lake accesses a huge portion of Big White’s terrain. The detachable quad lift was built by Doppelmayr in 1996 and has 24 towers. Tower 14 sits about two thirds of the way up the line at 5,914 feet in elevation. Gem Lake has a parking rail for some of its 128 chairs at the bottom terminal but not for the entire line.
After the cracks on tower 14 were discovered, Doppelmayr fabricated a new crossarm in St. Jerome and shipped it from Quebec early last week. Of course, the 20-foot long, 2.5 ton part got stuck in a winter storm of its own and ended up taking 119 hours to cross Canada. Meanwhile, Big White maintenance staff rigged the haul rope and removed the broken crossarm.
The return station of a detachable quad burned last night at Ski Bromont in Quebec. The 2003 Doppelmayr CTEC lift is called Versant du Lac or Lift 5. More pictures of it can be found here. This is the third such terminal fire in Eastern Canada in as many years. The drive terminals of high speed quads at Mont Tremblant and Marble Mountain burned in 2014 and were subsequently repaired. The good news for Bromont is the Uni-G terminal model is still in production so it shouldn’t be too hard to get a new one this spring. Doppelmayr’s St. Jerome factory is less than two hours away.
Intrawest announced in its second quarter earnings call today that Steamboat will get its 8th detachable lift this summer, a high speed quad replacing the Elkhead chair. The new lift will better serve beginner and low-intermediate skiers. Intrawest CEO Tom Marano noted, “Elkhead services a high-volume area of the mountain and facilitates lunchtime and end-of-day egress from the popular beginner and intermediate terrain pods on the south side of the mountain. The increased speed and capacity of this new lift will substantially improve the guest experience at Steamboat.”
Elkhead is a Yan fixed-grip quad built in 1984 with newer Doppelmayr line equipment. At just under 2,500 feet, the current 5.8 minute lift ride will be cut to just 2.5 minutes with a detachable quad. The existing chair rises 707 vertical feet at 425 feet/minute. No word yet on which manufacturer will build the Elkhead Express but Leitner-Poma built the Christie Peak Express for Steamboat in 2007 and the Wildhorse Gondola in 2009. This is the second major lift announcement from Colorado in recent weeks; Vail announced in December it’s replacing Chair 17 with a detachable quad this summer. With stellar snow across the west, it might be a busy one for lift manufacturers.
There’s a lively discussion going on over at Alpinforum about the future of detachable lifts, which haven’t gotten much faster despite huge advances in technology over the last thirty years. The first modern detachable chairlift, Quicksilver at Breckenridge, went 787 feet a minute when it debuted in 1981. Since then, manufacturers have installed hundreds of gondolas and chairlifts capable of going more than 1,000 fpm.
The first lift to go 1,100 fpm was the Whistler Village Gondola in 1988 and the first capable of 1,200 fpm was Stowe’s gondola in 1991. Both were built by Poma, the early adopter of faster line speeds. The only detachable installed in North America since 1991 capable of traveling any more than 1,200 fpm is the Peak 2 Peak Gondola, debuting in 2012. As a tri-cable gondola, P2P has an impressive capability of 1,476 fpm (7.5 m/s.) Doppelmayr claims similar systems can go up to 1,670 fpm (8.5 m/s.) So far, the fastest 3S ever built goes 8 m/s and one that can go 8.5 will debut in Vietnam next year. Meanwhile, 1,200 fpm (6 m/s) remains the highest speed for a single cable detachable, a stat that hasn’t changed since 1991.
The truth is the vast majority of detachable lifts built these days have the standard design speed of 1,000 fpm (5.08 m/s) and operate even slower much of the time. In my experience, many ski areas run so-called high speed lifts at 800 or 900 feet a minute on all but the busiest of days. As users on Alpinforum note, ski resort operators care more about reducing stops, wear and tear than shaving thirty seconds off a ride time that the average guest won’t even notice.
Vietnam doesn’t have skiing. That fact makes it an unlikely candidate for the title of world ropeway capital. With multiple record-breaking gondolas operating and more under construction, that may soon change. In 2007, Poma built a spectacular installation over two miles of ocean called the Vinpearl Cable Car. The Hanoi-based Sun Group is behind many of Vietnam’s lift projects and is perhaps the Doppelmayr/Garaventa Group’s best customer. Sun Group operates the second longest mono-cable gondola, just commissioned the world’s longest 3S gondola and is currently building another 3S that’s a mile longer than the first one. Now they are building a huge aerial tramway and at least two more gondola lifts.
Vietnam’s first reversible aerial tramway under construction in Ha Long Bay will break two world records. The Mystic Mountain Skyway will link a new amusement park called Ha Long Ocean Park with one of the world’s largest observation wheels on a neighboring mountain across the bay. The $282 million project is a perfect site for an aerial tramway with two points needing to be connected but with natural obstacles in between. At the same time, the alignment is relatively short with moderate capacity needs.


Rise & Shine: New book examines how far Memphis education has come since Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination
Renewed attention has been given to Martin Luther King Jr.'s struggle toward economic equality for African-Americans as the nation — and especially Memphis, where he was assassinated — prepares to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his tragic death. At the foundation of his hope for economic advancement for black people was the need for equitable education. Read about the new book published by Campaign for School Equity that examines the progress and challenges of Memphis education then and now.
Also, we hope to see you Thursday at our next installment of office hours at My Cup of Tea in Orange Mound. Our hosts will provide the tea and cookies; you provide the story ideas, questions and feedback. Find the details here.

In a matter of days, the word Metaverse appeared in the eyes of the largest number after the “expected” announcement from Mark Zuckerberg. The content created since then on this theme is (very, very) numerous, so much so that everything has been mixed up, especially two key concepts: virtual reality and augmented reality.
It is clear that Covid was the best PR agency in the Metaverse since our daily newspapers have been (are?) limited to a few hundred square meters.
The Metaverse has also been identified as ” GAFAM playground “… like almost everything, right? Let’s discover below the true extent of these new paradigms of still unfathomable limbo.
5G, 1984, disconnection from reality: panic of semantic panic 3.0
The ability of some to connect the hot topics of the moment is an automaticity that has always fascinated me.
Fact about donning a helmet to explore a new paradigm gets a lot of ink flowingand this on the part of nihilists, neo-philosophers and other feathers who do not assume an announced technological break.
Let’s keep it simple: The Metaverse is a ” Second Life » (which was also a “social” ancestor of Facebook) greatly improved by mixing a persistent virtual universe and an expanded universe (Pokemon Go type). All in a space-time continuum (Interstellar mode enabled) where the actions of the “virtual” enjoin the “real” world.
Also “small difference”, this time the Metaverse will not be reserved for a few million geeks around the world. The latter has taken over, according to Sheldon Cooper (got it?).
Which sectors will be affected by Metaverse (and Web 3.0)?
I would be tempted to tell you all, but let’s get things straight. According to Mark himself, he indicates that mass adoption would take 3-5 years while stating that this timing is … “conservative” (see the video here with the excellent GaryVee).
What key steps?
- An adoption in the first instance by the professionals (as crypto assets in general)
- That solution to the eternal technical problem for the augmented reality part (we all remember the Google fiasco Glasses). Note that tests will be performed on connected contact lenses… and let’s not forget Facebook’s acquisition of Occulus, sorry, Meta a few years ago 😉
My top 3: Play2earn, fitness and training (and MANY other industries)
Play2earn, what is it?
Play2earn’s world, namely playing video games to achieve financial profithas already exploded for several months among players. The big hit was of course Axie Infinitybut beautiful projects like Star Atlas and Thetan Arena are more than promising.
Remember the integration of NFTs into these games to equip people, make them stronger or even dress them up (among tons of options).
Another key point in relation to Play2earn, ecosystems such as Sand box, Decentralized country, and in another register Roblox, are experiencing an explosion of opportunities (and their prices in the crypto market). I am thinking especially of recent examples such as the integration of Gucci on Roblox or even this Lancôme virtual store. On these platforms it is also possible to make your own games. Imagine the potential for brands…
Another use of Metaverse that in the industry of fitness. In fact (almost) no need to go to the gym anymore. You connect your glasses, where your trainer will appear and dictate the pace and the exercises to be performed. No more excuses.
Training of all kinds
Finally, Metaverse is bound to be a game changer in the training world. Just like serious games, but also from the excellent Winkyverse project (100% French), learning has never been easier. No more excuses (bis).
Another industry that will (again) change, of the music industry. Actually between projects of streaming++ such as Audius, UOS and Theta, or the fact NTF ices a cut like Booba (who made Harvard for those who doubt his business intelligence), all the cards are re-dealt.
In summary, Metaverse is much more than a few weeks of hype.
2 (modest) tips:
- Like the blockchain world (which will be more than connected to the Metaverse), avoid falling behind in understanding this world. Because the web’s digital divide is a hole compared to this future technological Grand Canyon.
- Of course, Metaverse is a model freemium. Don’t worry, you will remain the product on the shelf…

London, Jul 13: In an effort to stay afloat amid the slump in the global automobile market, Tata Motors-owned Jaguar Land Rover is reportedly planning to extended shutdown of its British plants along with unleashing another round of lay offs.
According to the report published in Sunday times on Jul 12, the company that employs about 15,000 people has never taken a drastic step like this before.
The company has however, taken measures like extending the Christmas holidays to two weeks, introducing a four-day work week and sacking around 2,000 temporary employees.
In June 2009, Tata Motors that owns the British carmaker revealed the $522 million loss, and had warned of rigorous cost cutting.
The company that is seeking a loan from the European Investment Bank (EIB) is right now busy persuading the Britain government to provide guarantee.
Recently, the company released latest version of the Jaguar XJ and hopes that when the car hits the markets it will give good results.

Lexington, Camden go to game 5 in American Legion playoffs
By Thomas Grant Jr.
The rosters of Lexington Post 7 consists of players from Region 5-5A champion Lexington and two-time Class 5A Lower State champion River Bluff.
Nicknamed the SEC West of South Carolina high school baseball, the region was renowned for its nightly batles and resilient teams.
That resiliency came through Thursday as Post 7 rallied to force a deciding game in the Best-of-Five Series with Camden Post 17. Lexington defeated Camden 10-9 to even the series at 2-2.
Zack Smith’s tie-breaking RBI single in the bottom 6th capped a rollercoster contest for Post 7. Camden jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the first two innings before Lexington tied the game in the bottom of the third.
Wildcat Cole Lemacks put Post 7 on the board with an RBI single. Fellow Lexington High player Ryan DeRienzo followed with a 2-run double and scored on teammate Chase Crouch’s 2-run homer.
Lexington took the lead in the bottom when River Bluff graduate Walker McDowell cleared the bases with a grand slam home run.
Camden answered with a 4-run rally in the Top 5th to tie the game. In the bottom of the sixth, McDowell hit a leadoff triple and scored on Smith’s single.
Reliever Austin Muse pitched two scoreless innings to close out the win.
Game Five is set for 7 p.m. Friday at Legion Field in Columbia. The winner travels to Sumter Post 15 Monday to start a Best-of-Five series to determine the Midlands Region representative at the state tournament starting July 25 at Spirit Communications Park in Columbia.

2009 Ford F-150 fuel efficiency numbers, new SFE package touted
Though we still don't have an official release date for the 2009 Ford F-150 (should be in about a month or so), which was delayed back in June, Ford has shared with us more details on the new truck, and they're promising it will be the most fuel-efficient truck in its class. Using the tried-and-true fuel-saving techniques of lowering weight and improving aerodynamics, Ford claims the 2009 F-150 models will get, on average, 8%-better fuel economy than their 2008 predecessors. The SFE package will get as much as 21 mpg highway with a V-8 engine, which, as full-size-truck drivers know, is a substantial improvement.
"Ford has committed to have the best or equal to the best fuel economy with every new product we introduce, and we are delivering with the new F-150," says Matt O'Leary, Ford F-150 chief engineer. "Fuel economy has moved from 10th to third place among pickup buyers' top purchase considerations -- right behind durability and value. The new F-150 delivers on all three as the industry leader."
To get the most mileage out of the 2009 F-150, you'll want the SFE package, which stands for "Superior Fuel Economy." The SFE package is available only on the F-150 SuperCrew XL and XLT 2WD models with the 5.5-ft beds. They'll come with a 4.6L three-valve V-8 that's been worked over to squeeze every last bit of efficiency out of it. It will feature a new technology called open-valve injection, which will allow the engine to run more spark advance at high engine speeds and loads and get the most efficiency out of each drop of gas. The engine will also use an aggressive fuel cutoff program that will cut fuel to the engine the instant you take your foot off the gas pedal and turn it back on when the engine reaches a low speed, or when you put your foot back on the gas.
Proprietary Ford software keeps the fuel cutoff and restart smooth, unlike, say, the fuel cutoff when you hit the rev limiter. The SFE also picks up a six-speed transmission, 3.15:1 rear-axle ratio and 18-in. chrome wheels with low rolling-resistance tires. The SFE's drag coefficient has been dropped to 0.403, 6% better than the 2008 F-150. All this is good for 15 mpg in the city and 21 mpg on the highway. Even with the small V-8 and low-ratio rearend, the SFE can still tow up to 7500 lb. The SFE package will be a no-cost option on SuperCrew XLTs, but will cost $1095 on SuperCrew XLs.
Across the entire 2009 F-150 lineup, Ford has switched to lighter-weight ultra-high-strength steel that shaves 100 lb off the curb weight. Every model also features improved aerodynamics, such as a reworked front valence that will improve airflow under the truck. Up top, the rear of the cab has been reworked to smooth out airflow over the bed, and a lip on the top of the tailgate helps direct airflow cleanly off the back of the truck. The larger 5.4L 3-valve V-8 in non-SFE-equipped trucks also gets open-valve injection for maximum power and efficiency, though it isn't clear whether non-SFE equipped trucks will get the six-speed automatic. The 5.4L-equipped trucks will tow up to 11,300 lb and can haul up to 3030 lb in the bed, the best in the class.
While we don't know the exact on-sale date for the 2009 F-150 yet, it should be soon. Look for our first test drive of the truck here on motortrend.com in mid-October.

Here is something you can take to the bank. If Republicans can’t produce an alternative to Obamacare that solves the real problems of ordinary people, they will never be able to pass a health reform bill. But if they do solve problems, they will have no trouble getting support — even from Democrats.
That means getting the focus right. Over the past three years there have been a series of Republican proposals that have been excessively focused on Obamacare rather than on a conservative approach to health reform. These proposals have been hell bent on repealing Obamacare taxes and Obamacare mandates instead of solving the problems that Obamacare has created or exacerbated.

Seasonally, expectations are for continued builds in inventories (following last week's biggest build in 6 months) but API reported a massive 3.8mm drawdown (against 2.1mm build expectations) sending WTI prices soaring. Distillates also saw a notable draw as Gasoline built modestly. Cushing saw the biggest draw since Feb 2014.
It is critical for the markets to “hang on” to current support at the previous breakout highs. A failure to do so will put the markets back into the previous trading range that has existed going back to 2014.
If yesterday's session was marked by concerns about Fed tightening and rising long-end rates, today concerns about a hawkish Fed have subsided, with European, Asian stocks and S&P futures all rising amid speculation Federal Reserve policy will remain accommodative after yesterday's dovish comments by Fed vice-Chair Stan Fischer, as well as weak economic data helped push the US Dollar off its 7 month highs.
Failure has been rescued from the jaws of success. An opportunity to provide a major sentiment boost has been spurned in favor of continuing confusion. Sadly, investors must persist in keeping at least one nervous eye fully focused on an unpredictable and incoherent Fed. It’s the real economy that misses out.
Despite much hope that the current breakout of the markets is the beginning of a new secular “bull” market – the economic and fundamental variables suggest otherwise. Valuations and sentiment are at very elevated levels which are the opposite of what has been seen previously. Interest rates, inflation, wages and savings rates are all at historically low levels which are normally seen at the end of secular bull market periods, not the beginning of one.
World stocks started the week in the red Monday as the dollar touched a 7-month high and U.S. and European government bond yields climbed to their highest since June following the Friday speeches by Eric Rosengren and Janet Yellen which hinted the Fed's next step could be to pursue a steepening of the TSY yield curve the same as the BOJ.
The economy has gone suicidal. It is working against the very people who need its energy to survive. It is collapsing on its own weight, and the weight of literally incalculable levels of toxic debt. And it is going to create the greatest disaster of our time, if the warnings from the world’s most powerful bankers are any indication.
One day after a slump in Chinese trade sparked a global market selloff on concerns the world's second biggest economy had once again hit a downward inflection point, overnight China surprised once again, this time to the upside when the latest inflationary data printed hotter than expected, sending European and Asian stocks higher and pushing the yen lower after China’s producer price index rose for the first time since March 2012.
Remember when two weeks ago the China Beige Book warned that "It’s A Lot More Negative Than People Think" in the world's second biggest economy? Well after months of complacency about the Chinese economy and financial risks emanating from its $35 trillion financial sector, overnight the world got a rude awakening when China export figures tumbled, signalling a deeper slowdown than many anticipated just as the Fed prepares to raise interest rates.
Global markets and US equity futures fell on Samsung Galaxy Note 7 contagion concern, while the dollar rose to its strongest level in 11 weeks and U.S. bonds declined as investors boosted wagers that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates this year.
While the entire nation was transfixed on last night's latest, and most scandalous yet "debate", in which there was little actual debating and a lot of talking points and character assassination attempts, index futures were little changed throughout Sunday's 90 minutes event, suggesting that no clear winner had emerged on either side.
Sterling dropped to its weakest since 1985, hit by a growing sense that the UK may be heading for a 'hard' Brexit in which it cuts links to the EU's single market in favor of total control over immigration. The dollar strengthened, the Nikkei225 rose as the Yen fell, stocks in Europe rallied while US equity futures were fractionally in the green.
With Saudi devaluation bets soaring, Chinese money-market rates popping, 2 debates and an election looming, and the most systemically dangerous bank in the world flashes the reddest of red warning signs, HSBC's Murray Gunn's conclusion bears paying attention to. Between wave-trending signals and disturbing technical trading patterns, Gunn warns of "ominous shades of 1987" for the markets.

As a former contender for “Worlds’ Greatest Liar”, I became proficient at telling all sorts of tall tales, exaggerations, embellishments and all-out fabrications. As a result, the words I spoke meant little. They built nothing. They were nothing. They simply flew out into the air and disappeared in the wind. It there wasn’t any wind, I provided plenty of hot air.
It is hard to reach out and grasp the word ‘liar’ and place it on my own forehead but if I ever want to see the truth in my life, I have to come to grips with the liar I had become. If I refuse the title I have chosen, I am doomed to remain as I was. A liar cannot become truthful unless he confesses the lies just as a man cannot change direction unless he realizes he is going the wrong way.
For years, decades even, in order to avoid facing truth, I lied and in order to keep lying I had to lie to myself. Without swallowing my own lies as truth, I would be forced to change. But by buying my own B.S., I enabled myself to believe that some good came from what I said and did.
Proverbs 14:8 The prudent understand where they are going, but fools deceive themselves.
There is that ‘fool’ word again. I once avoided these verses thinking I wasn’t a fool, that I wasn’t even capable of being a fool. My pride kept me from learning to make my life better but in throwing back the illusion of deception that I couldn’t possibly be the fool in these scriptures, I can see that I have choices to make and hope for a better tomorrow.
I used to think that I would rather be a fool than prudent. I pictured a prude, with self-righteous condemnation and an expression of indignation smeared all over their face. But ‘prudent’ means to act with care and concern for the future. Honestly, I used to see little value in this quality. I like reckless abandon and being in the moment.
Reckless abandon requires a little lying to myself. It can’t hurt. Only the other guy will crash and burn. I’ll be OK by tomorrow. Of course, none of that worked for me. I was always in pain, always under repair and never OK.
Being in the moment is a good thing when kept in the context of where I am going. Even a little reckless abandon is alright when it doesn’t detour me from my ultimate destination. Better to follow God than allow myself to believe my own lies and be drawn into places that do considerable damage to me, though.
I can’t lie to myself and think I am too awesome to be the fool. I tend to live as a fool on the edge of wisdom. The more clearly I see this, the further from the edge and deeper into the heart of truth I venture.

Permaculture and energy.
The integration of the farm in the environment and its initial construction is absolute, in addition our commitment to sustainable tourism and sustainable living in general, is total.
Fincatur moves 100% with photovoltaic energy and is not connected to the grid, it is totally self-sufficient, currently generates around 5kw constant, depending on the weather, although it is more than enough every year the installation is expanded and so it is planned keep happening in the future. All surplus generated energy is used to charge accumulators or batteries that ensure the supply of energy at night or when there is no sun. Even so, when the batteries are fully charged and the energy demand is lower than what is being produced, this excess energy is derived to two functions; heat water and move the pumps of the purifier.
As for water, it is extracted from its own well by means of a solar pump that goes to a cistern of about 30 cubic meters. the excess water is treated in special pits and then used to water one of our crops, the paulownia tree.
As for the generation of domestic hot water, it works with an electric heater that heats the water through solar panels. The hot water of the heating is generated by the large chimney in the living room by means of a water tank located inside the chimney and part of the smoke outlet, these heat the water and by means of a pump the water is distributed all the House stays generating around 14kw to the air and 12 kw to the water

It has been a while (quite a long while really) since I reviewed anything from The Calls; so much so that I had almost forgotten how fabulous their music is. The EP has six tracks of loveliness to immerse yourself in, let’s dive in.
Easing us in is ‘Until It’s Time’ a slightly psyche, slightly dreamy ‘Manchester Sound’ song that somehow seems to fit that rock pop ballad form as well. Well, look this is no blast your ears rock song, instead it mesmerises with the dreamy sound and lazy rhythm. This is all about the lush layers of sound. The almost drawled vocals, a bass so prominent it’s a lead instrument, that mellow guitar.
Next up is the sweet pop beauty of ‘Out Of Reach’. A tune that’s going to lodge itself in your head permanently, a vocal that enchants. In a way it kinda reminds me of the classic pop moments of The Monkees except they didn’t do that wobbly dreamy psychedelic guitar. Gorgeous stuff. Continuing with this theme ‘Into The Day’ adds in what I’m going to call a wonkiness, a lovely touch of off-kilter sound. This features some guitar that’s so good it brought a tear to my eye.
Our trip into the groovy takes a big step along the path with ‘Everything’s Alright’, a track that musically in some ways reminds me of Spirit or even Love. What I’m saying here is that this has major psychedelic rock influences. It starts as a wonderful pop track but then takes an extended step into the ‘wow maann that’s far out’.
‘Way Far Out’ is, and I hope you’ll forgive me for this, far out. |You’ll get a hint of what’s to come at the beginning, only to be dropped onto a psych-pop song. And then… well it freaks out; swirling sounds, distant vocal chants, guitar that feels oddly out of time. Lush and glorious.
And all too soon we are at the closing track ‘Setting Sun’. Mesmerising, hypnotic, huge, epic. It sounds like a track that Primal Scream would have loved to write. Is it a blissed out pop song, a prime piece of psychedelia, a (slow) dance song? In truth it’s all of these and more.
The one word I have avoided so far is Indie. So I’m going to address that now. The Calls have identified themselves as an Indie band and sure you’ll hear some sort of Indie feel in their songs. But they’ve taken that and stretched it so far the envelope is well and truly burst. I’ve mentioned some bands I hear in their music but I could add Dukes of the Stratosphere, Strawberry Alarm Clock, the more extreme Peter Green material (both with Fleetwood Mac and solo), and I could go on. But then again I can equally as well hear things that are of the now. It is music that is of the present but draws from the past.
This is an astounding EP. The songs have great tunes that are going to haunt your day. Musically it’s so good it hurts; you can hear it in the individual instruments, you can hear it in the way the band play together. You can hear it in the way they take a song and stretch it out, take it to a beautiful otherworldly place.
This is an EP to be treasured. It’s beautiful

Hi and welcome to our Bloggers Holiday Living Room Tour! If this is your first time visiting Our Vintage Nest or you’re a regular reader… I’m glad you’re here! Special thanks to Sandra at The Rustic Life for organizing this fun tour!
It’s been a crazy four weeks of moving in and getting settled into our new home. Our living room is the first room I tackled and I love how it’s transformed for the holidays… Our favorite time of year!
We’re excited to finally share our decorated living rooms with you! So, grab your favorite steamed beverage and enjoy the tour! Welcome to our grand living room with vaulted ceilings and shiplap accent wall. I designed this room with our builders carpenter, adding 9-foot built-ins on each side with shiplap above and surrounding the mantle. You can read more about our home choices in my “Design Details” post. We love the exposed beams; they add so much character in this room! It’s been fun to see it come to life after months of anticipation and a bonus to be able to immediately decorate for Christmas! Here are a few close-ups of some details I’ve added… Lots of neutrals and textures!This nativity scene was one of the first purchases I made when I was a newlywed and I love it more and more every year! I love the intricate details and the faceless figures, it’s the first piece I set out and the last to be put away until next year. I’ve always wanted a hearth to display things like rustic olive buckets and lanterns. But mostly, for that memorable Christmas picture of my kids that we can look back on years from now.This flocked tree from King Of Christmas is a dream come true! I’ve always loved the look of them and now that we own one… I’m in love! It doesn’t take much to decorate this beauty! In fact, it sat bare for two weeks before I adorned it with ornaments. I went with a neutral and natural elements theme this year. Birch wood ribbon, birdhouses, berry picks, pinecones, snowflakes and sparkly burlap ribbon. The top is a combination of picks I added to make it look more full and beautiful.Believe it or not, these buffalo check curtains were hung just a few days ago! I just love the warmth and feel they bring to this room!
This sweet “Have a Very Merry Christmas” banner from Pottery Barn is the perfect touch to our 9-foot flocked tree. I get a lot of questions about the Love is Patient sign above our mantle. It was made by the sweet and talented, Tara at Between You And Me Signs!
These bookshelves were so fun to style! I added subtle pops of green and red throughout, and of course my vintage treasures take the spotlight! I love how the white makes everything stand out! I love our stockings this year! I made the dark gray stocking from an old sweater and the others are from HomeGoods and Target! The beautiful metallic felt ball garland is from my sweet friend, Megan at Sheep Farm Felt.

North Korea has dismantled the Punggye-ri nuclear test site, where the regime had conducted six nuclear tests since 2006, on Thursday. This marks the first practical step that Pyongyang has taken after its nuclear moratorium statement. The communist regime continued on the war of nerves, however, mentioning a potential reviewing of the summit meeting between Washington and Pyongyang.
The South Korean authorities said that the North conducted a closing ceremony of the nuclear site in the presence of journalists from foreign countries including the South and the United States on Thursday afternoon. Having demolished the entrance by exploding four mines, the North is reportedly planning to shut down the vicinity of the Punggye-ri nuclear test site by tearing down observatory facilities and laboratories.
By proceeding with the demolition of the nuclear test site as scheduled, Pyongyang has shown the intention not to disrupt the framework of the North Korea-U.S. negotiation to exchange denuclearization with the regime’s security. Pundits say that the latest move by Pyongyang is a gesture to prod the Trump administration into offering a “more generous” compensation for its denuclearization effort.

We are almost finished with our 230V electrical installation and thought we would share our thoughts about the installation.
We wanted automatic changes between shore power, generator and inverter. With two relays we designed the following priority of our power source:
- If shore power is available it feeds the battery charger, water heater and the outlets
- If generator is available it feeds the battery charger, water heater and the outlets
- If the inverter is available the feed the outlets.
The inverter we have is a 350W continues modified sine wave inverter. It is quite small but we think that will be enough for us. It followed with the boat and to buy a bigger one is not really prioritized right now,
The water heater is installed to a dedicated outlet so that it is easy to turn it off in case of limited shore power.
This was some short thoughts about our 230V, more about what we did this weekend will be up soon. 🙂

This function becomes more complicated when considering wind-driven rain and the project-specific variations of magnitude, intensity, and duration of rainfall and wind speed. Since the directionality of wind-driven rain can change throughout a single storm, it is not always obvious what combination of environmental factors are contributing to water leakage in a building enclosure assembly.
One of the design strategies for resisting rainwater penetration is a drainage approach, such as a rainscreen or cavity wall system, which relies on the outer surface of the enclosure assembly to deflect rainwater, coupled with a dedicated internal drainage plane to redirect water that bypasses the outer surface back to the building exterior. This strategy is commonly understood and implemented in exterior wall assemblies, but it is also important to consider components of mechanical systems that are part of the assembly, particularly when potential exists for rainwater to flow into them. If overlooked, the overall performance of the enclosure may be compromised.
For example, the top floor of a 30-story residential tower located in the southeastern United States incorporated a mechanical penthouse housing HVAC equipment. Storm-resistant louvers were installed in the exterior wall assembly on three elevations of the penthouse to provide ducted intake air for the mechanical equipment. As the louvers were larger than the ductwork to satisfy the desired building aesthetic, metal blank-off panels were installed on the interior of the un-ducted portions of louvers.
Although the blank-off panel assembly included a sheet metal collar fabricated with a sloped bottom (presumably intended to direct water into the weeped sill of the louver), the collar was positioned below the upper edge of the louver sill, creating a trough where water that bypassed the louver during wind-driven rain events would collect rather than draining to the building exterior. In addition, compressible open-cell foam gaskets were installed at blank-off panel joints and along the interface between the blank-off collar and louver frame. However, the foam gaskets did not achieve a continuous seal along these joints, resulting in several gaps. The use of open-cell foam gasketing with gaps suggests these gaskets were installed to reduce air flow through joints rather than to resist water penetration, perhaps indicating overreliance on the “storm resistant” designation of the louvers to mitigate water penetration.
Approximately 18 months after construction, a high-wind event with intermittent periods of heavy rain resulted in flooding of the mechanical penthouse and significant water damage at the four floors immediately below the penthouse. Upon investigation, it was determined the flooding at the mechanical penthouse was caused by the lack of watertight perimeter seals between the louver frame and blank-off panel collar, and between joints in the blank-off panels where wind-driven rain was allowed to penetrate.
Water collecting at the base of the blank-off panel also flowed into the interstitial wall cavity of the exterior enclosure, where it traveled down to the floors below. To correct this issue, the blank-off panels were modified to incorporate functional drainage provisions to redirect water bypassing the louvers back into the sill of the louver, and then to the building exterior. As well, all internal and perimeter joints in the blank-off panel assembly were sealed to prevent water penetration.

Medina Boil Alert Lifted After Water Main Break
MEDINA, Ohio — The City of Medina Service Department has lifted a citywide boil alert issued after a water main break Friday morning.
The boil advisory, however, is still active until further notice for Forest Meadows Drive between Cloverdale Avenue and North Jefferson Street, including King Court.
The Medina City School District closed all of its schools Friday after the break on Forest Meadows Drive. A district employee said all of the buildings were without water.
Medina police said Saturday that city crews had repaired the break.

Lead-zinc Ore is the main ore for refining lead and zinc metal. It is the main technical process to refine lead first and then zinc in the lead-zinc ore beneficiation. Application. Lead-zinc ore beneficiation process can be applied to
Some of the metals that can do the job are copper and lead. At a pH between 8-9 lead can activate sphalerite to cause it flotation. So the reason is during the flotation of the two there may be lead re dissolution from galena which may activate sphalerite to cause it flotation. It may best if you are doing bulk flotation of the two.
MBE is presently executing debottlenecking plant of Lead Zinc Beneficiation for upgrading the capacity from 1.2 MTPA to 2.7 MTPA at Zawar Mines of Hindustan Zinc. The plant is expected to be commissioned in July'2017.
Noticeably, the zinc recovered from silver-zinc crust can be used as desilvering agent again for the Parkes process. While the lead alloy can be charged to lead refining pot before bismuth-removing step. This system is superior in reducing energy consumption, shortening process flow and improving working environment.

According to Mortgage News Daily, mortgage interest rates have risen from their recent low of 6.61% on 12/27/23 to 6.89% APR today. Never ideal when rates rise a little over a quarter of a percent in a few weeks as we’re gearing up for the Spring Homebuyer Season, but overall rates are considerably lower than the 8.03% we hit last October, so that’s good. Now why, if inflation is continuing to fall, are rates reversing course and trending slightly higher? It’s because of the unrest and attacks on shipping in the Middle East.
Nearly 15% of global seaborne trade passes through the Red Sea – including 8% of the global grain trade, 12% of seaborne-traded oil, 8% of the worlds liquefied natural gas, and 30% of global consumer goods. Why in the world does so much stuff go through the Red Sea? If we zoom out a bit, we can see… Many consumer goods manufactured in Europe and bound for East Africa, Asia, or Australia begin their trip in the Mediterranean Sea, pass through the Suez Canal in Egypt, and then make their way through the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden (and vice versa for goods going to Europe).
Herein lies the problem: When ships get to the southern end of the Red Sea and begin their passage through the Bab al-Mandab Strait (between Yemen and Djibouti), they become easy targets for the Houthis in Yemen (who are sympathetic to the Palestinians in Gaza) to attack. Grossly paraphrasing here – by attacking shipping from or to Europe, the Houthis are attacking the economies supporting Israel’s war in Gaza. Now, whether all those economies are or aren’t supporting Israel’s war is up for debate, but at the very least those economies aren’t doing anything to stop Israel’s conquest, which is why the Houthi’s feel justified in attacking those ships.
Shipping through the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden has always been risky. Somali Pirates have been attacking ships for years, but not for political reasons. Somali Pirates generally attack indiscriminately for hopes of achieving a ransom payout (check out this video for a short and interesting recap of how Somali Pirates came to be). Unfortunately, the added attacks from Houthi rebels have made shipping through that passageway SO dangerous now that massive shipping companies like Maersk from Denmark (the world’s second largest shipping company) are now redirecting ships to go west out of the Straight of Gibraltar, then south around the southern tip of Africa (the Cape of Good Hope). This new route adds about 10 days of shipping and more fuel expense, which is translating into skyrocketing shipping costs. For reference, just a couple weeks ago a 40’ container being shipped from Shanghai to the UK would cost about $2,400; today that same container is costing almost $10,000 to ship.
Take it Home
The unrest in the Middle East is causing shipping costs to soar. Unfortunately those added shipping expenses will most likely be passed onto the consumer. So even though inflation is pointing lower, which has been pulling mortgage interest rates lower overall, mortgage interest rates have been rising the last couple weeks on fears that this Middle East shipping crises will lead to higher inflation in the months to come. As always time will tell how this turns out, but fingers crossed things will be resolved world-wide sooner than later.

MERCER, PA. Attorney: Trial is unnecessary since official released records
Is Commissioner Brian Shipley's credit card a private or county card? A judge will decide.
By HAROLD GWIN
VINDICATOR SHARON BUREAU
MERCER, Pa. -- Mercer County Commissioner Brian Shipley's decision to release his credit card records makes the need for a trial to determine who owns the card unnecessary.
At least that's the basic argument put forth by his attorney, Miles Karson, in arguments before a common pleas judge Thursday.
The Herald newspaper filed suit against Mercer County Controller Dennis Songer over access to Shipley's credit card records after Shipley initially refused to release them and threatened to sue Songer if he released them.
Ownership dispute: Songer and The Herald maintain that the card is really a county card issued for Shipley, but Shipley maintains it is his private card, even though it has "County of Mercer" emblazoned on it in addition to his name.
Shipley said he has paid all debts incurred on the card except for some expenses paid on county business.
Attorney Mark Longietti, representing Songer, said Karson argued that the question of card ownership is now moot because Shipley voluntarily released the records this week.
However, Longietti said both he and Attorney William McConnell Sr., representing the newspaper, argued that the issue of who owns the card isn't moot and has yet to be resolved. The attorneys said it would be best to do that now rather than be forced to return to the debate some time in the future.
Judge Martin J. O'Brien, senior common pleas judge in Butler County, is hearing the case and gave the three attorneys until Sept. 22 to file briefs on the issue. He will render his decision at a later date.
The practice of county commissioners being issued credit cards in the county's name dates to 1988 and their use has never been questioned before, said Songer.
Heart of debate: The debate over Shipley's card began when he was late on a payment and National City Bank, which issued the card, asked the county to pay the debt, Songer said.
Shipley's records showing nothing particularly unusual but they do show he took $4,600 in cash advances between September 2000 and March of this year.
Shipley has since paid off all debt on the card.
Songer said he questioned the use of the cards when he first took office nearly four years ago, suggesting the county had created a liability for itself that might not be a legitimate county debt.
He noted that Commissioners Olivia Lazor and Gene Brenneman have turned their cards over to the county fiscal office since the Shipley case surfaced and will sign them out only when they need them for county business in the future.
Both Brenneman and Lazor voluntarily released their expense records for the county cards weeks ago.
