Spectroscopic mole fraction analyzer designs
Greenhouse gas mole fraction measurement techniques for gas mixtures based upon IR spectroscopy use either absoiption bands or individual transitions within bands of the GHG of interest. Absorption bands of individual molecules are well separated in wavelength. This separation lends itself to instrument designs aimed at a particular molecular species. However, where bands of different molecules overlap in wavelength, either these regions are avoided, or a strategy must be used to separate contributions from different molecular species. For example, water vapor is ubiquitous in atmospheric measurement situations as it has bands at several IR wavelengths and can be a confounding element in instrumental designs. Some field installations avoid or minimize water vapor interferences by drying the sample air prior to introduction to an instrument's measuring volume, while others do not, often depending on instrument application. An instrument's molecular specificity is realized by confining its detector response to radiation of wavelength absoiption by the species to be measured. For the generalized NDIR instrument design shown in Figure 8, this is achieved by the band pass filter. For example, CO, has a very strong absoiption band in the 4.2 pm to 4.3 pm region with no other molecule having a significantly interfering band. This band, the so-called "fundamental band" with the strongest absorption, is the basis for many instrument designs. These use a filter that transmits this range of radiation wavelengths to the detector while rejecting all others. Typically, such a filter would have a passband with center wavelength of 4.26 pm and width of 100 nm to 200 mn.
In all instrumental designs however, source photon removal via molecular absoiption along the instrument's sensitive path is a fundamental objective. Since absoiption band strengths of molecules differ substantially, instrument designs are adjusted to meet application requirements. Although maximizing photon absorption by the pertinent GHG molecule is a main instrumental goal, several other processes may be simultaneously at work, resulting in additional intensity reductions at the detector. Such interference effects may be minimized with a blend of instrumental design and calibration procedures using the appropriate gas mixture standards discussed above.
Figure 8 shows a form of the Beer-Lambert law and a general instrument design incorporating an IR source, absoiption path, bandpass filter, and detector. This general design uses tungsten filament electrical lamp sources that emit broadly across the infrared, but mostly outside the wavelength band of interest. (Recent advances in infrared light emitting diode technologies are an emerging alternative appearing in some research grade and commercial devices.) Band pass filter technologies for GHG molecules are well developed and widely available. The majority of instrumental designs utilize a single detector and bandpass filter, although in the last few years multi-detector assemblies with integrated electronic amplification and wavelength selectable filters have become available. These support strategies of integrated absoiption signal/reference signal detection using a single gas sample path. The reference filter's pass band is selected to be in a wavelength region where molecular absoiption does not occur. In this way, the reference channel signal compensates for parasitic effects that impact both detectors.
The form of the Beer-Lambert relation shown in Figure 8 assumes multiple absorbing species. Source radiation transmitted to the detector, Td, is the ratio of the radiant flux transmitted through the gas, Ir, and measured at the detector, to the radiant flux incident on the measurement path, Io. Td depends

on the attenuation parameter, a, for the i* gas species observed, the attenuation pathlength, l, and the number density, n , of the attenuating species. The number density is the value desired for mole fraction determination. In most instrument designs, absorbing pathlength is fixed and the attenuation parameter, cr, can be determined from spectral reference data, i.e., absorbance information, obtainable from references such as HITRAN.
The Beer-Lambert relation is a widely-used instrument design foundation for mole fraction measurement, however, complications may arise for some applications. Although Г., f. and the pathlength may be measured directly, they are more often inferred from the ratio of the signal to reference channels, or in single channel instruments by turning the lamp off periodically. Other instrumental effects that increase the uncertainty in NDIR mole fraction measuring instrument designs must be compensated. These include drift characteristics in IR detector response and source emission. Compensation for various scattering processes due to elements comprising the optical path may also be needed. All these effects can limit NDIR measurement accuracy, although perhaps not its sensitivity, in most cases. Such deficiencies can be compensated considerably or eliminated by instrument calibration procedures based on mole fraction standards for the gas or gases of interest. This has been the practice in many applications where field measurement requirements approach those of standard lab capabilities.
6.2.1 Long absorption pathlength instrument designs
Typical NDIR instrument designs have pathlengths ranging from a few to a 30 centimeters and usually employ an analyte molecule's strongest absorption bands for maximum signal amplitude. Spectroscopic investigation of weakly absorbing molecular bands in the early to mid-20th century resulted in the development of several optical cavity designs aimed at substantially increasing the absorption pathlength with multi-pass designs. These are often based on reflections between two or more minors to fold the absoiption path within tractable cavity lengths. An early design still in current use is the White cell (White, 1942), a basic version is shown in Figure 9. By adjusting the orientation of the two smaller concave minors appropriately, multiple passes of the input beam transit the cavity, thereby increasing pathlength. The configuration shovra supports eight transits with precise adjustment resulting in more passes. Succeeding cell designs feature more passes due to greater mechanical stability (Heniott, 1965).
With the advent of high-reflectance mirror technology, reflectance > 0.9995, and lasers, resonant cavities, such as those illustrated in Figure 10, came in to widespread use. Technological innovations driven significantly by the telecommunications revolution resulted in frequency-stable, tunable infrared lasers, optical fiber components, and IR detector technologies that have advanced molecular spectroscopy research and measurement instrument designs. Due to effective pathlength increase and other strategies, these typically have performance superior to NDIR instrument designs. The optical cavities used lengthen absoiption paths from fractions of meters to multiple meters and kilometers at bench scale or smaller physical sizes through the application of a number of strategies (Romanini, 2014).
High reflectivity, resonant and non-resonant optical cavities have shifted measurement strategies from use of all or most of an absoiption band to that of a single or a few adjacent individual transitions within a band. This wavelength, or frequency, selectivity also provides means to compensate for overlap of absoiption features of multiple molecules in the same wavelength region by direct observation and compensating analysis.
Analytical instrument designs based on these technological innovations and applied to concentration measurement instrument designs for CO" CH4, N,0, CO, and other small molecular species at high

sensitivities also featuring good temporal stability began appearing commercially in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Resonant optical cavities were combined with the exquisitely fine control of emission frequency of tunable IR lasers. This resulted in designs with long absorption pathlengths and much greater control of the frequency of the light used to probe molecular absorption features. These designs have effective path lengths of 100s to 1,000s of meters. One approach, and variations on it, based on the use of resonant cavity configurations, is used in several commercial instruments as well as in research applications and is known as cavity ringdown spectroscopy (CRDS). Figure 10 shows the main components of a CRDS design along with a conceptual diagram of the spectral properties of the resonant cavity using a Fabry-Perot interferometer cavity (Busch, 1999). The high reflectivity optical resonator (mirror reflectance of 0.999 and higher) not only provides the means to substantially lengthen the absorption path, but it also replaces the bandpass filter of NDIR designs. A cavity's filtering properties result in a comb of frequencies, illustrated as the series of transmission peaks shown in blue in Figure 10. These equally-spaced, comb frequencies allow the cavity to accept laser light only at those exact frequencies or wavelengths. Frequency spacing of cavity resonances, termed the free spectral range, Af, of the cavity is dependent upon mirror spacing and the speed of light.
where: c = speed of light and
I = mirror spacing.
The 400-megahertz (MHz) resonant frequency separation shown in Figure 10 corresponds to a mirror separation of ~ 37 centimeters (a 12 inches). Cavity length tuning via the piezoelectric actuator shown in the figure mainly changes the frequency position of comb teeth.
The combination of laser frequency timing and cavity length control gives exceedingly fine timing of light either entering the cavity at a comb frequency, or strongly rejecting if the laser is timed off a comb frequency. Measurement of absorption featur e properties, both amplitude and frequency, is accomplished by successively tuning the excitation laser to comb frequencies. As an example, an idealized molecular absorption feature (the red line labelled 'absorption feature' in Figure 7) is shown superimposed over the cavity's resonant frequency comb. The black dots indicate cavity resonance overlap with the absorption line. Adjustment of laser frequency and cavity resonance conditions are the means of probing absorption featur e shapes and amplitudes, a widely-used method for accurate measurement of absorption line shapes/ amplitudes. Cavities designed for high-sensitivity measurement of spectral reference data often have ~ 100 MHz cavity resonance separations and widths in the tens of kilohertz range, giving them the ability to measure absorption features with significantly higher accuracy than previously (Yi, 2018).
Long-pathlength instrument designs transform signal acquisition from one that relies on long-term temporal stability of the detector, as in NDIR designs, to one that relies on short-term temporal stability where drift effects are negligible. In the case of CRDS-based designs, incident radiation from the laser is tuned to the center frequency of a comb tooth, allowing the cavity's optical field to increase. The detector monitors interior cavity field strength and when it reaches a preset level, the laser frequency or the comb tooth frequency is changed. Without further laser input, the cavity optical field intensity decays exponentially due predominantly to molecular absoiption, although other cavity loss mechanisms are present but tend not to har e the temporal nature of the molecular absoiption process. The detector monitors the exponentially decreasing signal (the 'ring-down' time depicted at the right in Figure 10). The cavity's optical field is allowed to decay far below its original value, after that time, the procedure can be repeated. Detector voltage is digitized throughout, and this data is fit over the ringdown tune to an exponential in order to obtain a ring-down time value. Since ring-down tunes typically have durations of a few to tens of microseconds, drift in detector response is effectively eliminated. Ring-down times with the cavity evacuated and filled with the gas mixture to be measured allow calculation of mole fraction values based upon line strength and frequency properties intrinsic to the analyte molecule. Reference information for the molecular absoiption feature being used by the instrument design is the basis for this analysis. Auxiliary instrument parameters values, e.g., gas mixture pressure and temperature, must also be measured in order to compute mole fraction values.
Commercially available CRDS instruments used for atmospheric monitoring of greenhouse gases har e demonstrated excellent stabilities over several weeks or longer, based upon repeated observations of GHG mole fraction standards (Kwok, 2015; Karion, 2013). Uncertainty in instrument response of ~ 0.1 pmol/mol at nominal CO, values ranging from ~ 400 pmol/mol to 800 pmol/mol while supported by periodic observations of standard gas mixtures are routine.
6.2.2 High-accuracy spectra1 reference data
Spectral reference data of line shape and amplitude are determined using research-grade CRDS instruments measuring mole fraction of primary gas concentration standards whose mole fraction value has been assigned using the gravimetric methods discussed previously. CRDS determinations of molecular absoiption line and band spectral reference data for the greenhouse gas molecules and other species of interest, such as oxygen, carbon monoxide, and water vapor provide spectral reference data (Polyansky, 2015) are used in applications such as remote sensing. The combination of these measurement methods has been shown to provide line strength and shape data at previously unattained accuracy levels. These data har e been incorporated in widely available spectral reference datasets, such as the HITRAN database, as a primary means of disseminating them to both the instrument design community and to the atmospheric remote sensing community. Such information is widely used in remote sensing applications.

Norway Under Pressure to Reduce EV Incentives
Eric Novak December 4, 2014
Sorry there are no photos!
With now 15 percent market share for electric cars, Norway has been on a tear to move away from petroleum, but is it now teetering on the edge of being victimized by its own success?
This remains to be seen, but more certain is the Norwegian government has been facing increased pressure to reduce tax breaks, incentives. and special privileges that have made the tiny country of 5.4 million the world's largest per capita consumer of electric vehicles.
Among the list of incentives offered by the Norwegian government is the right to use bus-only lanes in urban centers. EV owners are also exempt from paying urban tolls and do not have to pay for public parking spaces where they can also hook up to charge ports for free. However, the most alluring incentive is the fact that EV sales are exempt from Norway's sky-high sales taxes as well as the VAT (value added tax).
For Oslo bus drivers like Erik Haugstad, EV access to bus lanes has been a growing concern and an increasingly frustrating problem.
"I'm a bus driver and I want to transport my passengers as quickly as possible," . So, I'd like electric cars to leave the bus lanes, where they're getting in my way," Haugstad said. "These delays have a cost for society. Time lost by thousands of our passengers in traffic is far greater than that gained by a few dozen electric car drivers."
Haugstad said the cars can create a vicious circle — tired of being stuck in traffic, bus users could be tempted to buy an electric car themselves, worsening the congestion problem.
Electric cars already represent 85 percent of traffic in bus lanes during rush hour, according to a study by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration on a busy stretch of road outside Oslo. While no decision has been made so far to address this problem, it seems likely that steps will be taken to reduce the congestion in the bus lanes – especially during rush hour.
The incentives have been incredibly successful to this point. There are more than 39,520 registered through October 2014 in Norway – a staggering number for a small country. Tesla Motors cites Norway as its second-largest market, after the U.S. In fact the Tesla Model S set a Norwegian sales record in March 2014 for selling the most units of a particular model during a one-month period in history.
While Norway enjoys a high-standard of living, the huge sales success of the Model S, which starts at around 60,000 euros ($74,000) can't be traced necessarily to wealth. With EVs being exempt from sales taxes and VAT, the cost to purchase a similarly priced non-EV would be close to double.
SEE ALSO: Norway's EV Market Share Is Skyrocketing Past 15 Percent
The Norwegian government had originally planned to keep the incentives in place until 50,000 EVs were on the road. Projections were that this would take until 2017, but the surprising success of the program and over 40,000 registered already, the government to re-evaluate the program.
At the present sales rate of about 2,000 per month, the cap will be reached by March or April 2015.
Still, there remains strong support for the continuation of the program and all of its incentives.
"It's too early to remove the fiscal incentives. The market isn't competitive enough yet compared to that of fossil-fuel-driven cars" said Christina Bu, general secretary of the Norwegian Electric Vehicle Association. "If the tax and VAT exemption ends, the market could collapse and it would be hard for Norway to reach its climate goals. We must increase the number of electric cars, not reduce it."
A recent survey by the association showed that 48 percent of EV buyers in Norway did so to save money. Only 27 percent said it was for environmental reasons while 12 percent said they purchased an EV to reduce their commute times.

You'll be pleased to hear that the signs look good for real estate agents this year. Juggling your sales efforts and agency cash flow situation can be stressful when you rely on a booming real estate market – it's our view that 2014 will bring lots of property, prospects and purchasers, but it's the cities that performed most highly in 2013 that will continue to be the shining stars this year.
Sydney has kicked off the year setting the bar high on house prices, with a healthy increase in house prices, when compared to this time last year.
The home value index on Melbourne properties is showing significant improvement this month, striving ahead of the same period in 2013.
Perth property prices are lagging a little, when compared to last January – but signs show much potential for the year ahead.
Prices in both Adelaide and Brisbane are on the up, but the increases are steadier than Sydney and Melbourne and only just staying ahead of inflation.
In Darwin, there has been a significant step up in the total number of houses on the market, suggesting that buyer activity will need to match these levels in order for the market to perform like it has in the last few years.
The surge in listings throughout Canberra that occurred mid last year looks as though it has flattened for the moment.
The number of new listings in Sydney has risen by over 8% during 2013 but the volume of properties on the market has fallen by almost a quarter – if this continues, property supply may slip behind demand and therefore continue to push up Sydney house prices.
In Melbourne, property commentators early last year indicated that Melbourne had an unusually high volume of properties for sale, predicting that this may slow down the market – but on the contrary, with both new listings and total properties on the market falling, it looks as though vendors will benefit from a tilt in their favour – and that only spells good news for real estate agents!
Of course, it's important to not get carried away with January's performance and bear in mind that property prices will fluctuate according to external influences. As you'll already know, the school holidays are peak time for selling luxury properties – waterside apartments and large family homes in holiday hot spots tend to sell well during this 'golden time'. Whilst this doesn't prop up the market, you can expect a slight drop off as the children go back to school and February gets underway.
The other thing to remember is that January's real estate statistics can also include sales that have only just been concluded from the late spring period. High prices can often skew January's figures because sales drop significantly over the Christmas break.
Having said all this, overall it's shaping up to be a pretty picture for vendors and real estate agencies – in the majority of markets anyway.

Гусейн Кулі-хан (1774 — 1845) — останній бакинський хан в 1792—1806 роках.

Життєпис
Син Хаджі-Алікулі-аги. Народився 1774 року в Баку. 1792 року помирає його стрйико — Мухаммед-Кулі-хан, після чого почалася боротьба за владу. На вимогу кубинського хана Шейх Алі-хана бакинським ханом було проголошено Мірзу Мухаммед-хана, стриєчного брата останнього. Невдоволена ним бакинська знать на чолі із Касим-беком вигнала його з Баку і проголосила ханом іншого Гусейн Кулі-агу.

Наприкінці того ж року хан перед загрозою з боку Персії розпочав переговори з Російською імперією щодо визнання її зверхності. До того імператриця Катерина II планувала загарбницький похід уздовж Каспійського моря. Але Шейх Алі-хан затримав у Дербенті посланця Гусейн Кулі-хана, який їхав до Санкт-Петербурга, втім посланець встиг відправити звернення іншим шляхом.

19 квітня 1793 року імператриця видала наказ про прийняття Гусейн Кулі-хана зі своєю областю «під російську руку». Сам хан розглядав це як тимчасове й вид васалітету, а не підданства. У липні 1793 року Шейх Алі-хан відправив Івану Гудовичу, астраханському губернатору й кавказькому наміснику, посланця з проханням про прийняття його в російське підданство, згадуючи серед підвладних йому земель Баку, оскільки колись воно входило до володінь кубинського хана Фатх-Алі.

Влітку 1794 року Шейх Алі-хан рушив на Баку. Але дізнавшись про напад на Шекінське ханство, вирушив на допомогу, залишивши Мірзу Мухаммед-хана неподалік від Баку, біля нафтових джерел селища Балахани. Той не пропускав у місто жодних товарів і, захопивши соляні озера та нафтові колодязі, позбавив Гусейн Кулі-хана джерел доходів. Так тривало до початку 1795 року, коли бакинський хан відправив до Івана Гудовича Манаф-бека, де той скаржився на дії Шейх Алі-хана і просив допомоги. Але російський губернатор обмежився закликом до Шейх Алі-хана щодо мирного існування з Гусейн Кулі-ханом. Останній невдовзі розбив Мірзу Мухаммед-хана, взявши того в полон. Зрештою восени було укладено мир, за яким доходи від Бакинського ханства повинні були ділитися на три частини: одну — бакинському хану, другу — Шейх Алі-хану, третю — Мірзі Мухаммед-хану.

В цей час перський шах Ага Мохаммед Хан Каджар вдерся на Кавказ. Спочатку захопив Шемаху, погрожуючи іншим ханствам. В свою чергу у грудні російська імператриця видала наказ про прийняття в підданство бакинського хана. Навести 1796 року військо на чолі із Валеріаном Зубовим зайнято Дербентське ханство. 13 року росіяни під орудою Василя Рахманова зайняли Баку, де комендантом став Павло Ціціанов.

1797 року після смерті Катерини II російські війська залишили Баку. Цим скористався перський шах, який зайняв Карабах. Він планував скинути Гусейн кулі-хана, поставивши на трон Шейх Алі-хана, але невдовзі в Шуші шаха було вбито, й в Персії почався розгардіяш. Втім Гусейн Кулі-хан вимушений був розділити свої володіння з Мірзою Мухаммед-ханом. Зі зміцнення влади перського шаха Фатх-Алі визнав його зверхність.

22 січня 1800 року до Баку прибув Михайло Скибіневський, російський генеральний консул в Ензелі, і зажадав від хана задоволення російських купців, в яких було забрано чималу купу грошей. Гусейн Кулі-хан відмовився, тому російський шлюп «Кизляр» обстріляв місто Баку, змусивши бакинського хана задовольнити вимоги купців і сплатити старі борги за векселями. У 1801 році братом бакинського хана були розграбовані товари російських купців з судна «Санкт-Іоанн» індійського купця Мугундаса Терендасова, викинутого бурею на берег у володіннях Гусейн Кулі-хана поблизу селища Кюрдахана. Це послужило приводом для підписання у квітні 1802 року нової угоди між про захист прав російського купецтва.

1803 року в союзі з Мустафою, ханом ширванським, переміг Мірзу Мухаммед-хана, повернувши під свою владу усе Бакинське ханство. Невдовзі почалися перемовини з Павлом Ціціановим, який при підготовці до нової війни з Персією, планував зайняти Баку. Бакинське ханство представляв Аллаверди-бек. Останній домовився про перехід бакинського ханства у підданство та передачу Баку. Втім Гусейн Кулі-хан у 1804 році заявив, що його посланець перевищив повноваження. За цим почав готувати столицю до оборони. В цей час почалася війна Росії з Персією.

У 1805 році проти хана відправлено флотилію на чолі з Іринахом Завалішиним. В свою чергу Гусейн Кулі-ханн розраховував на підтримку газікумуського хана Сурхая II та Шейх Алі-хана. Бакинцям вдалося відбити усі напади з моря та суходолу, змусивши ворога відступити. Невдовзі підійшло союзне військо.

У відповідь Павло Ціціаногв особисто рушив на Баку. На шляху він повалив ширванського хана Мустафу, який був давнім союзником Гусейн Кулі-хана. Ширванське ханство було ліквідовано. У лютому 1806 року російське військо підійшло до Баку. Тут під час перемовин Ціціанова було вбито знатними бакинцями Ібрагім-беком і Ахмед-беком. Російська армія відступила. Це стало приводом до антиросійського повстання усіх ханств регіону. Але у травні розпочали новий наступ, захопивши Дербент і Кубу. Гусейн Кулі-хан не наважився на спротив, тому втік до Арндебіля. Невдовзі Бакинське ханство було приєднано до Російської імперії.

Колишній хан під час нової війни з Росією у 1826 році на чолі перських військ намагався захопити Баку, але зазнав невдачі. За цим мешкав в Персії, померши в Ардебілі 1845 року.

| What must victims prove when making Connecticut personal injury claims?
What must victims prove when making Connecticut personal injury claims?
Connecticut law requires personal injury victims to file claims within fixed deadlines and prove another party's negligence directly caused the injury.
Each year, countless people in New Haven and other parts of Connecticut suffer harm because other parties acted carelessly or recklessly. In some cases, people who are seriously injured during these incidents might be able to recover financial compensation by making personal injury claims. However, in order to hold another party liable, victims must first establish all of the following facts.
Negligence caused the injury
According to materials from the State of Connecticut Judicial Branch, victims must show that they suffered injuries because another party acted negligently. Negligence is a failure to exhibit the reasonable care owed to others. For example, someone who chooses to drive while intoxicated is not exercising appropriate care toward other motorists. If an impaired driver causes an accident and injures other people, he or she may be considered negligent.
Victims also must prove that the other party's negligence directly caused the injury. If the injury still would have occurred in the absence of the negligent conduct, the other party cannot be held liable.
Negligence was a primary factor
Injury victims must also establish that negligence was a "substantial factor" in causing the injury. Another party may not be found liable if his or her actions only contributed minimally to the injury. Additionally, victims may not be able to recover compensation if their own negligence is deemed a significant factor in the accident.
The injury risk was foreseeable
People making personal injury claims must also show that the other party's actions could reasonably have been expected to result in injury. This may be more straightforward in cases that involve violations of local statutes, since such violations may represent negligence. For instance, drivers may be considered negligent if they cause injurious car accidents while doing the following things, which could reasonably be expected to endanger others:
Driving recklessly or at unreasonable speeds
Failing to yield the right of way
Passing in an unsafe manner
Operating a vehicle with unsafe tires or brakes
In other situations, meeting this requirement may be more difficult. Fortunately, injury victims do not have to establish that the other party was cognizant of the risk or should have recognized it. Instead, victims can prove that a reasonable person in the same situation would have been aware of the danger.
The filing date was appropriate
The general statute of limitations for Connecticut personal injury claims is two years from the date of injury. However, if an injury was not immediately apparent, a victim is given two years from the date that the injury was discovered to file a claim. Victims must document this date and show that they could not reasonably have been expected to discover the injury sooner.
Legal help can be invaluable
Given all of these requirements, many personal injury victims may benefit from seeking the advice of an attorney during the claim process. An attorney may be able to help a person secure necessary documentation and prove that all of these criteria are satisfied.


When springtime arrives here in Michigan, country cooks review all of their favorite rhubarb recipes. Here is my newest addition to the rhubarb file. I know you'll agree with me that his recipe is a "keeper".
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, salt and ginger.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, oil and lemon peel. Stir egg mixture into dry ingredient just until moistened. Fold in the rhubarb.
3. Fill paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full.
4. Sprinkle with remaining sugar.
5. Bake in preheated 375 degree oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
6. Cool for 5 minutes and remove to rack to cool.

Landed property still available for RM500,000
The supply of newly completed residential properties in Malaysia rose only 2.2% last year, a drastic slowdown from the 3%-12% range seen since 2001.
Those with a budget of half a million ringgit can still purchase decent landed residential properties that are not too far away from the Kuala Lumpur city centre, particularly in the Ampang area.
A search through the online property listing of Metro Homes Sdn Bhd turned up several interesting possibilities including a leasehold two-storey terrace house (five-bedroom/three-bathroom, on a 22ft x 75ft lot) going for RM500,000 in Taman Sri Watan, Ampang.
Also available was a leasehold three-storey terrace house (six-room/three-bathroom, on a 1,200 sq ft lot) going for RM470,000 in Taman Muda, Ampang Jaya.
A search via StarClassifieds also turned up a two-storey terrace house (three-room/three-bathroom), said to be located near the Kelab Darul Ehsan golf course, going for RM520,000 in Taman Tun Abdul Razak, Ampang.
There are also two-storey terrace houses selling in the RM500,000 bracket on the secondary market in Pandan Indah, Kuala Lumpur and Taman Ehsan, Kepong.
The online Metro Homes listing also showed options in Petaling Jaya including a a freehold one-storey intermediate terrace house (three-room/one-bathroom, on a 1,650 sq ft lot) going for RM455,000 in SS5.
Also offered was a leasehold Merdu Idaman one-and-half storey townhouse (four-room/four-bathroom, built-up of 1,800 sq ft) going for RM500,000 in Jalan Seroja, Kayu Ara, Petaling Jaya.
Our search also turned up a partly furnished freehold two-storey terrace house (six-room/three-bathroom, on a 22ft x 85ft lot) going for RM500,000 in SS14, Subang Jaya.
A report by C H Williams Talhar & Wong (WTW) issued in March this year, noted that due to limited supply of land, the development of the landed residential sector has shifted farther away from the Kuala Lumpur city centre.
"Last year, selected areas within Seri Kembangan, Puchong, Kinrara, Kota Damansara, Kepong became the hotspot areas for landed residential housing. Gated and guarded types of landed residential properties emerged as the popular trend in the Klang Valley," says the report.
A recent CIMB Research report pointed out that last year, bungalows in Kuala Lumpur saw a 19% increase in prices, followed by semi-Ds at 16.7%.
The CIMB Research report noted that the strong property price appreciation for all residential properties was due partly to limited new supply last year, which had increased at the slowest pace since 1997 particularly in the Klang Valley, Johor and Penang.
"The supply of newly completed residential properties in Malaysia rose only 2.2% in 2010, a drastic slowdown from the 3% to 12% range seen since 2001," said the report.
This could be one reason for the spike in the prices of landed terrace residential units in recent years in Klang. IOI Properties recently launched freehold two-storey terrace houses (priced from RM468,800 on 22ft x 70ft lots) in Bandar Puteri, Klang.
These are still more affordable options compared with Bandar Setia Alam, Shah Alam (located off Jalan Meru, Klang) where in early June, SP Setia Bhd launched freehold two-storey cluster houses (30ft x 55ft) priced from RM568,000.
It should be noted that renovated and partially furnished freehold two-storey terrace units (22ft x 75ft) in gated and guarded precincts within Bandar Setia Alam were transacted on the secondary market in the region of RM600,000 this year.
Also, on the secondary market, freehold and basic two-storey terrace units (22ft x 75ft) can be found in Putra Heights (adjacent to Subang Jaya) for about RM500,000.
Meanwhile, those desiring bigger-sized homes can check out bungalows in Rawang.
On the Metro Homes listing was a freehold two-storey bungalow (five-room/four-bathroom, on a 3,500 sq ft lot) going for RM510,000 in Taman Sri Hijau, Rawang.
Another option was a freehold fully-furnished two-storey bungalow (five-room/four-bathroom, on a 50ft X 80ft lot) going for RM450,000 in Bandar Country Homes, Rawang.

So you might as well go to a sprawling, horn-driven, hard-driving rhythm-and-soul dance party headlined by The People Brothers Band.

She's surrounded by some of the area's most talented and passionate soul practitioners, including brothers Tim and Scott Lochner on guitar and bass. The rhythm section is relentless. Mae Simpson and her funk band out of Minneapolis, headliners in their own right, open, plus spins from DJ Kayla Kush.

Carrellee
Carrellee album release, Saturday, Dec. 31, Crystal Corner Bar, 9 p.m.: Written by Carrellee during the isolation of the pandemic and a divorce, the songs on the November album Scale of Dreams are appropriately dark and moody, but also a set of synthpop gems. They already had a following before the album's official release thanks to the "Official Unofficial Synth Series," demo videos which have racked up more than a million views on Facebook. And if the voice sounds familiar to Madison music fans, it's because Carrellee is a new project by singer-songwriter Sarah Pray. The album release party is a wall-to-wall banger also featuring sets by Dogsblood, Educational Davis, Wristwatch, and DJing by Haunted Ones.

Forty Two . . .
startle frogs basking in sun-warmth and the odd pheasant caught off guard.
she trusts me, however, sings, smiles, and talks to me . . .
I always take her with me.
This is something I really adore in dogs. They take us to places. They walk ahead of us, but they care to look back and check on us, see if we're there, still going.
Love the twist that you threw in there :-) Really nice images also, I love a good walk through the words, and you chose lovely ones. Thank you very much for your comment and empathy on my blog.
"where adventures take birth" Something about this transported me back to childhood, like a dog sniffing out a place to build a fort. Odd how a line can conjure up offshoot thoughts.
I adore this poem. Wonderful! Love the dog in the photo too - what a beauty!


Will digital brassware become more commonplace in the bathroom?
Digital water delivery for the bathroom is nothing new, offering precise temperature control and personalised flow for tailored experiences.
But ISH saw developments of digital technology, recently take a step forwards.
The likes of Hansgrohe and Dornbracht unveiled their holistic showering experiences for the luxury market, which combine choreographed water flow with lighting, music and fragrance.
Managing director at Dornbracht Andreas Dornbracht explains why multisensory experiences are becoming more significant in showering: "Because we live in an age when speedy is everything, in a time of digital transformation and upheaval, people are increasingly pressurised in their daily life.
"With this in mind, it is increasingly important to maintain personal good health – both physically and mentally.
This demand for a holistic showering experience saw Dornbracht introduce Aquamoon at ISH 2019, which was shown as a concept at ISH 2017.
Using a touch screen, bathers can call up Signature Treatments which combine a choice of four water flow patterns, light and fragrance to create a choice of three moods.
In addition, with the Dornbracht Smart Water App, bathers can download additional Signature Treatments.
Designer for Dornbracht Michael Neumayer is convinced: "We need personal safe havens, where we can experience moments of happiness.
And Aquamoon was joined by the RainTunes range at Hansgrohe which also linked water, light and sound to embrace all the senses.
Head of Global brand marketing at Hansgrohe Marc Andre Palm explained the rationale behind its launch, stating: "We conceptualise water in the bathroom in completely new dimensions with a focus on the individual and their multi-sensory experiences.
Certainly Hansgrohe has sought to achieve exactly that offering seven multisensory experiences, and featuring its own range of RainScent fragrances.
These have been developed by a team of dermatologists, sports physicians, physical therapists and aromatherapy specialists.
Controlled by an App or digital RainPad control, it links water flow with the smart home such as Bluetooth technology for music and Phillips Hue lighting to create the overall experience.
Of course, these digital showering experiences are for the premium end of the market, but industry experts believe they are fast filtering into the general populace.
Reflecting this, Grohe introduced a digital control which could be used with any overhead shower, while Hansa introduced the HansaEmotion Wellfit shower, operated by button or App, to provide three wellbeing shower programmes.
And the likes of Mira and Triton are bringing more affordable digital showering to the mass market.
Head of industrial design at Mira Showers Roland Boal explains: "From a global perspective our approach seeks to bring together the latest technology with core design cues, enabling the bathroom to provide a highly personalised experience.
Mira now offers the digitally controlled Mira Mode and the Triton Host shower offers digital technology at an affordable price.
In fact, marketing director at Triton Showers Tina Simpson says "In a recent survey carried out by Triton, around 80% of respondents said they would seriously think about purchasing a digital shower in the future.
However, still to catch up to digital showering are electronic mixers for the basin and bath, despite Grohe introducing Ondus mixer taps 15 years ago.
However, this year at ISH saw the launch of a digital mixer into its Grohe Plus range.
Featuring a white glass plate on top of the spout, it features an LED temperature display, which is colour coded to match the heat of the water and a sensor control to change the standard 5.7litre per minute flow to 4 litres per minute.
While Duravit introduced an electronic variant in its Mattheo Thun and & Antonio Rodriguez-designed D1 tap range at ISH.
Although a concept for the commercial market, Ideal Standard previewed the Intellimix combined digital tap and shower dispenser, which product manager Leanne Martin hinted as a precursor to what may influence its future residential portfolio.
With the creative director of Ideal Standard Roberto Palomba also commenting "technology is a way of life", at ISH, digital mixers could certainly be a category to watch in the future.

Her name can be associated with the Velvet Underground and Andy Warhol: a tall and blonde German model, with a deep but still angelic voice. Nico, 1988 is directed by Susanna Nicchiarelli and it's the story of the great Christa Päffgen, aka Nico.
The film is an introspective journey inside the life of Christa after her experience with the Velvet Underground, through drugs and a suicidal son that she had from a man when she was very young. Because of the reckless life she led, the boy was adopted by his grandparents and this had a great influence in her music.
The struggle of being Nico, the model and tambourine player of the band, the addiction to many types of drugs, the carrier as a solo singer, has made Christa an "ugly, old junkie" as she says in the film. The desperation in her music, the wildness of her personality has been well interpreted by Trine Dyrholm, who has been able to depict the demons with which the singer fought everyday.
The soundtrack of the film has been entirely performed by Trina, who not only looks like the real Nico but also has a voice that looks very much like the original. Every song is full of emotions and speak about a life of struggle and broken-hearted.
The editing of Nico,1988 helps the spectator identify with Christa and makes him look right into her eyes. The close-ups on Nico's face – while she stares into the camera or the empty space in front of her – makes one feel as if she was in front of the viewer. The editing also alternates what seems like old footages of the real Nico and the Trina-Nico.
After what seems a redemption, Christa is finally serene and wants to settle down, quitting music for good. The end of the film is a symbolic way to represent the death of the singer, and I think that it couldn't have been more explicit.
Nicchiarelli has directed the perfect portrait of a legendary woman and what it ment living during the 60s. Not only what drugs have done to most of those people, but what it means to get old after living a youth full of experiences.


Building a website or application? Gone are the days of FTP or copy/pasting into your host. Let's cover some available tools such as GitHub & GitHub Pages, Travis CI, and Azure App Services for automating consistent releases. Many of the services are relatively inexpensive or even free. Using these tools will allow you to release with confidence, knowing your application is built, tested, and released the same way every time.
We'll use front-end applications as examples, but the tools used apply to full-stack development.

The Commissionerate of College Education, Andhra Pradesh, has leaked the personal data, including Aadhaar numbers, of over 64,000 past and present students, reports The Times of India.

One of the exposed datasets shows personally identifiable information of individuals, furnishing details such as caste, gender, Aadhaar, the course they are enrolled in, college name, district etc. The data belongs to degree students enrolled in government colleges across all 13 districts of the state.

The details were reportedly uploaded without the consent of the students. Andhra Pradesh state officials said that the mistake was unintentional, and had planned to take these details down by today. However, this information continues to be on the website at the time of publishing. MediaNama has withheld the URL of the portal to protect the privacy of the individuals.
