I am an interdisciplinary scientist with an interest in developing stronger avenues of communication and inclusion amongst the public, decision makers and scientists about human-wildlife conflicts. I received my Ph.D. and M.A. in Environmental Psychology from the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, and I received my B.A. in Biology and Psychology from Swarthmore College. My past and present research addresses issues related to human-wildlife conflict using interdisciplinary methods and critical social theory. I am currently based in Bozeman, Montana and work throughout the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) because I am motivated by the need to address the pace and scale by which people are degrading natural habitats and perpetuating conflicts across species. Rather than take an exclusionary and short-sighted approach in which I prescribe how other people or wildlife should live, work, and play in the GYE landscape, I ascribe to an integrative and participatory philosophy that identifies and differentiates the full-range of people's stakes and interests to empower and enable rural agricultural livelihoods to successfully persist alongside healthy and abundant wildlife populations. In this context, I view myself as a broker who seeks to integrate the needs of people and wildlife communities alike, and I endeavor to transform stakeholders' opportunities to meaningfully participate in the management of their special places, the places the make the GYE what it is. I am undertaking these efforts through my current projects and my position as the Program Manager for Future West in Bozeman, Montana, who's mission is to help communities identify, choose, and achieve their desired future.
My research, work and environmental outreach reflects three interrelated streams of interest: 1) assessing the interplay between individuals and their surroundings to understand how people's attitudes, knowledge, and perceptions of nature and wildlife are formed and maintained; 2) engaging theory and methods from multiple disciplines to interrogate human-animal relations; 3) employing a problem-oriented approach to research, prioritizing inquiry aimed at solving complex conservation problems, particularly growing concerns of species extinction and biodiversity loss due to climate change. This description reflects the academic nature of my work, and I am working to establish a framework for further evaluation into how management programs can be established, developed, and applied (in the Rockies and elsewhere) for mediating human-wildlife coexistence under contemporary conditions of environmental stress.
Through my integrative writing and public outreach, I work to illustrate how people's interactions with animals and one another are influenced by deeply embedded cultural norms and values beyond just physical proximity or competition. My research highlights why participation of residents, attention to the perspectives of nonhuman animals, and ongoing collaborations across agencies are all necessary components for mediating human-wildlife coexistence in communities like the GYE. I am enthusiastic to continue my research and consulting work to meet the needs of people and wildlife, facilitating the improvement of science and policy measures, and communicating with the broader public about how to participate and engage with such critical environmental issues.
Since age 15, I have studied and worked with over 30 species of exotic animals around the world, including: hyenas, bats, giraffes, penguins, warthogs, orangutans, gorillas, and many others. These animal interactions have instilled in me an imperative to expand people's scope about our own animality and consider the lives of animal 'others' when making decisions about our environment into the future. My work and research are born out of my broader and lifelong interest in understanding how our science and policy measures have a critical responsibility when it comes to mediating the tenuous coexistence between people and nonhuman animals, especially those that are simultaneously revered and reviled. This issue will only continue to grow as regions of urban sprawl intersect with the paths and habitats of wildlife, both locally and abroad.

The Space Launch, reusable launch vehicle ("RLV") satellite, would be designed with ultra-light weight construction, heat dissipating ceramics resulting in an entirely recyclable, low cost and efficient reusable satellite vehicle, for both passenger and payload deployment. Space Launch satellites house the electronic equipment and solar panels required to capture microwave and radio signals to relay cellular communications and energy to terrestrial towers. Essential components and electronics are embedded in the foam core of the Space Launch spacecraft, creating a stable, shock absorbing, hermetically sealed environment, encapsulating computers and controls. The Space Launch RLV Satellite would glide back to earth and be re-launched with updated computer and solar hardware, saving more than 80% in launch costs.


Legends offers six automated indoor batting cages. Machines pitch from 40mph-60mph and one machine pitches softballs. Cages can be rented by the hour or by number of balls pitched. Small parties can be held in the area behind the farthest cages - baseball themed birthday parties are perfect in this area.


I was morbidly obese on my first day of bootcamp. Difficult words to write, but at 5'4 and 251 pounds, it was the truth. I considered having lap band surgery, but I really wanted to give exercise and healthy eating one more try. I began bootcamp April 2006. My weight came off slow but consistent. But I lost 109 pounds in under 2 years. Now I am working on toning and participating in new adventures like duathlons and learning to swim for triathlons. At one time I was the last person in class but I was good with that. It meant I showed up! Karen had always been there to cheer me on (as well as other people in the class), give me other exercises when I could not keep up (in a discreet way) and pushed me to limits I thought I could not achieve. DO NOT think you cannot do bootcamp if you are very overweight. I could barley walk around the track but now I can jog miles. Karen has also given me direction with my caloric needs and helped me with my food choices. So I take 1 day at a time, trying to make most good choices along the way as I have learned that you can cheat a little and still feel ok about yourself.
Boot Camp! What can I say… It has changed my life. I became friends with the ladies, along with the trainers, and there is such camaraderie that I actually started looking forward to getting up at 4:30am everyday. I used muscles that I never even knew I had. It is a total fitness, full body workout. I am 46 years old and feel better than I have in years.
It was the best decision I have ever made and worth every penny I have spent, and then some. I can't wait for the next one!!!!


A mystery Motorola device stopped by the FCC recently under number IHDT56PG1. That number doesn't tell us much, but we do know that it has a 2000mAh battery inside and supports LTE on AT&T's network. Are we potentially looking at a Moto G for AT&T with LTE on board? Tough to tell, but maybe.
According to a reddit user who spotted the listing, the battery number listed in the FCC filing matches that of the Moto G, SNN5932A. While I can't confirm the number without ripping apart my Moto G, I will say that the FCC filing says 2000mAh battery, whereas the Moto G actually has a 2070mAh battery inside.
One thing is for sure – AT&T does not yet carry the ultra-affordable device from Motorola. Since its number 1 competitor (Verizon) does through prepaid, it wouldn't surprise me in the least to see AT&T adopt it. The device has been universally praised by reviewers and they would also be one-upping Big Red should they get Motorola to toss LTE inside. If there is one thing missing that would keep us from ever recommending the version on Verizon, it would be the fact that it can only access their ultra-slow 3G network.
If you want to see us unbox and fondle the unlocked Moto G, hit up this post.
As we learn more, we'll be sure to keep you up-to-date. We can imagine that an LTE-equipped Moto G would be quite popular.

Q: mvc3 razor editortemplate with abstract classes this is a follow up question from MVC3 Razor httppost return complex objects child collections.
The example I gave was very simple. The child collection is actually a collection of objects that all come from an abstract base class.  So the collection has a list of base classes.
I have created a template for each derived class and tried using if child is of type then give the template name as a string.  The templates are rendered to the view but not populated on the post back.
I am not sure how I use the editorfor bit with the templates to choose the correct template and get the information to be marshalled back into the child objects within the parent container.

A: You could use a custom model binder. Let's take an example.
Model:
public class MyViewModel
{
    public IList<BaseClass> Children { get; set; }
}

public abstract class BaseClass
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    [HiddenInput(DisplayValue = false)]
    public string ModelType
    {
        get { return GetType().FullName; }
    }
}

public class Derived1 : BaseClass
{
    public string Derived1Property { get; set; }
}

public class Derived2 : BaseClass
{
    public string Derived2Property { get; set; }
}

Controller:
public class HomeController : Controller
{
    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        var model = new MyViewModel
        {
            Children = new BaseClass[]
            {
                new Derived1 { Id = 1, Derived1Property = "prop1" },
                new Derived2 { Id = 2, Derived2Property = "prop2" },
            }
        };
        return View(model);
    }

    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Index(MyViewModel model)
    {
        // everything will be fine and dandy here
        ...
    }
}

View (~/Views/Home/Index.cshtml):
@model MyViewModel

@using (Html.BeginForm())
{
    for (int i = 0; i < Model.Children.Count; i++)
    {
        @Html.EditorFor(x => x.Children[i].ModelType)
        <div>
            @Html.EditorFor(x => x.Children[i].Id)
            @Html.EditorFor(x => x.Children[i])
        </div>
    }

    <button type="submit">OK</button>
}

Editor template for the Dervied1 type (~/Views/Home/EditorTemplates/Derived1.cshtml):
@model Derived1
@Html.EditorFor(x => x.Derived1Property)

and the editor template for the Dervied2 type (~/Views/Home/EditorTemplates/Derived2.cshtml):
@model Derived2
@Html.EditorFor(x => x.Derived2Property)

Now all that's left is a custom model binder that will use the hidden field value to instantiate the proper type in the collection:
public class BaseClassModelBinder : DefaultModelBinder
{
    protected override object CreateModel(ControllerContext controllerContext, ModelBindingContext bindingContext, Type modelType)
    {
        var typeValue = bindingContext.ValueProvider.GetValue(bindingContext.ModelName + ".ModelType");
        var type = Type.GetType(
            (string)typeValue.ConvertTo(typeof(string)),
            true
        );
        var model = Activator.CreateInstance(type);
        bindingContext.ModelMetadata = ModelMetadataProviders.Current.GetMetadataForType(() => model, type);
        return model;
    }
}

which will be registered in Application_Start:
ModelBinders.Binders.Add(typeof(BaseClass), new BaseClassModelBinder());

An Excerpt from Rising Fire
Rock moves. It moves all the time, everywhere, in big ways and small, through deep time and fast forward, on the surface of the earth and far below it. And in and around volcanoes, rock flies--at times faster and farther than any bird. Or it flows like tar, or water. It floats on water, burns on water. Glowing rock chunks the size of bowling balls bob and hiss in the south Pacific, the Gulf of Alaska, the Caribbean, the Mediterranean. Earth, Air, Fire, Water: the four classic elements that form the world, all jumbled up, none of them acting the way you think they should.
Over the long arc of time, volcanoes heave themselves up into high, holy mountains and haunted summits, burst apart, erode back down. Their lavas leap and turn with the grace of sandhill cranes in their mating dance; they breathe, roar, and sing. And singing, volcanic rocks and fires can deeply affect the way we see and act in the world, the stories we tell about the world.
A man who told many stories about the same volcano was the great Eighteenth Century artist Katsushika Hokusai. From the middle to the end of his long and prolific life, Hokusai created endlessly inventive perspectives on Mount Fuji, Japan's most sacred mountain. Among his 101 Views of Fuji is a woodblock print of a curving, luminous-orange slope of the volcano, rendered in such close-up that it fills half the sky. Other views include a perfect cone in the middle distance viewed through slanting arrows of rain over a lake; and a tiny, snow-tipped summit visible from sixty miles through the bustling cityscape of Edo, today's Tokyo. Fuji as dominating spirit. Fuji as one of many dynamic parts of nature. Fuji as a far off snow-dream to shopkeepers on a crowded street. So many Fujis and stories of Fuji!
And so many volcanoes around the world, about 500 that have erupted in historical time, perhaps 1300 that are potentially active--not counting hundreds more in our solar system. Each can be viewed in 101 ways: a channel through which the planet's rising fires move from inner to outer space, from sparks to stars; a source of the newest earth on earth; a doomsday machine monitored by satellites and seismographs; an inspiration to painters and writers. Of these "mountains alive," as volcanologist Maurice Krafft liked to call them, perhaps thirty to fifty are rumbling now. In all, about six hundred million people--one in ten on the planet--live in their shadows. Every one of us lives in their arc of influence. In ways that I had once never imagined, I know I do.

David Newland Gives BobCat a Whirl
BobCat House Concerts have been gone for a while, but we're back. And we have a great person to get us back into giving house concerts a whirl. David Newland is a friend to music, in as many ways as you can imagine. He's one half of the brain trust behind the superb Roots Music Canada website. He's the originator of Toronto's Corktown Ukelele Jam. He is a member of the McFlies, a Toronto-based band that puts a quirky acoustic spin on 80s hits. He's brought his humour and knowledge to hosting countless festivals and concerts.
But most of all, David is a musician. His first studio CD, Give it a Whirl, is a collection of songs that remind us of what's great about folk music. Rhythms that infect the listener's toes; imagery rooted in nature; a warm and comfortable voice that invites you into the song, and superb musicianship (guests on Give it a Whirl included Dala, John Sheard, Good Lovelies, and the Bebop Cowboys). The CD is deceptively simple sounding in the same way that the best folk albums are, providing layers of enjoyment. And I think you'll have an even better time with David live at our house.
WHO: David Newland
WHAT: BobCat House Concerts
WHERE: 214 Northwestern Avenue
WHEN: November 3, 2012; the music starts at 8:00 pm
SUGGESTED DONATION: $20
A reminder: We appreciate prepayment, because that means artists get money (All of it). You can drop off payment, or send Paypal or Interac e-transfers to bob.ledrew@gmail.com.

Carlsbad officials to explore options for Ponto Park
CarlsbadCarlsbad FeaturedCitiesCommunityCommunityEnvironmentNews
by Steve Puterski February 2, 2021 February 3, 2021 1758
CARLSBAD — The quest for a new coastal park in southwestern Carlsbad is moving forward after the Carlsbad City Council approved bringing back "viable options" during its Jan. 26 meeting.
For the past seven years, residents in the San Pacifico development led by Lance Schulte and Jodi Jones, among many others, have lobbied the city to develop the 11-acre site as a coastal park and light commercial.
The group, known as People for Ponto, has researched the land use, designations and possibilities for the city to create Ponto Park south of the Cape Rey Hotel and across from the state campgrounds.
The property, which sits west of Coast Highway and north of Avenida Encinas, is bisected by Ponto Drive. The larger lot is about 7.5 acres.
"I'm trying to find out what the right thing is for our community and for our city, so I'd like to continue the conversation," said Councilwoman Teresa Acosta, who voiced the motion to bring the issue back to council. "I want to explore what the options are and don't want to limit it too much."
City challenges
There are several challenges for the city to overcome if it were to move forward with an attempted purchase of the land in question. First, the land is already owned by Hudson Advisors, Inc., while an unofficial estimate puts the price at least $15 million.
According to Jeff Murphy, Carlsbad's community development director, there is no funding mechanism in place to purchase the property, assuming the property owner would sell. In 2016, the developer submitted an application to develop the land, although there are no active permits, Murphy said.
Schulte and Jones said the city has the funds to purchase the property, noting the council also approved a $21 million renovation to the Monroe Street pool during the same meeting.

Regardless, if the city buys the land, it will forego park-in-lieu fees, property and sales taxes. Also, staff reported to the council about Proposition C, which mandates any city project over $1 million (with four exceptions), go to the voters. One of the exceptions under Prop. C is the purchase of open space and trail connectivity is not subject to a citywide vote. Additionally, city staff does not believe it would qualify, as the land being discussed is for park development, not open space.
The current proposed development is for 136 residential units (28 affordable) on the larger site, with commercial spaces on the smaller. The city, though, cannot reduce residential density on a property without concurrently rezoning another property to make up the lost units, according to the staff report.
The development also creates another challenge, as the current number of proposed units fall under moderate-income and low-income categories as outlined by the state's housing mandate, Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA). Under the requirement, cities are required to plan for residents' housing needs, regardless of income.
Finally, the city could investigate whether the property could be subject to eminent domain and acquired through condemnation.
People for Ponto
A number of residents in the San Pacifico neighborhood, just blocks from the site, have long held the city erred in its interpretation of the property. The city denies any intentional wrongdoing but admitted to an "oversight" regarding policy A-10 of the Local Coastal Plan, according to a staff report.
Nevertheless, the residents say they are entitled to a coastal park, which the southern portion of the city has none. The park acreage set aside from developers was routed to Veterans Memorial Park off Palomar Airport Road.
Also, Schulte said a private landowner adjacent to the property is also willing to commit to a private-public partnership with the city to build a recreational swimming pool at no cost to the city.
Schulte and Jones said a park would bring more value to the city, including jobs, increased home values and other factors, which outweigh the benefits of housing. However, they acknowledged the need for housing in the city as it, the county and state are in the midst of a housing crisis.
The solution, the two said, is to provide land more inland to develop.
Another factor Schulte and Jones said is the growing concern over sea-level rise and how predictions call for the eroding of Ponto State Beach and the campground.
"The more conversations we have, the more people that hear about it, the more they are like, of course it should," Jones said about the park. "You can protect it as a park. Seeing the excitement from the community is really exciting."

Alappuzha municipality, police at loggerheads
ALAPPUZHA: Alappuzha municipality, led by chairman P P Chitharanjan and District Police, led by Superintendent of Police E Divakaran, here are in a pitched battle for the ownership of the Alap
Published: 28th October 2009 02:11 AM | Last Updated: 16th May 2012 12:09 AM | A+A A-
The recreation ground at Alappuzha.
ALAPPUZHA: Alappuzha municipality, led by chairman P P Chitharanjan and District Police, led by Superintendent of Police E Divakaran, here are in a pitched battle for the ownership of the Alappuzha recreation ground.
The ground has been part of Alappuzha's evolution with some of the country's statesmen like Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, EMS, AKG, and Khan Abdul Gaffer Khan, having addressed huge gatherings. The ground has also seen the rise of many sports men who learned the skills playing on it. According to municipal authorities, the ground' which has 3.3-acres of land near Alappuzha beach was leased to Alappuzha municipality for 99 years when it was part of the erstwhile Travancore Kingdom. "We have valid documents to prove our ownership," they said.
However, District Police team here claimed that the District Police only have the full ownership of the land which was given by the State Government to them years ago.
"The government had given to the District Police the ground which had over 4 acres of land to the District Police team for our various activities like parade. However, as per the demand of the government, we had allotted around one-acre land for setting up Raja Kesavadas Swimming Poll to the State Sports Council. Now, the ground is fully owned by the Police and nobody has any ownership over it'' Alappuzha DySP (Administration) Victor Joseph told Express.
"We are going to fence the ground and any organisations or institutions, including Alappuzha Municipality, should seek our permission for conducting their programmes in the ground. We have already erected a board in front of the ground which proves our ownership," Victor Joseph said.
Meanwhile, Alappuzha municipal chairman P P Chitharanjan told Express that they would soon set up municipality's board in front of the ground.
"I called the attention of the State Government and the government ensured them that the ownership of the ground will be retained with the municipality.
I have written a letter to Home Minister Kodiyeri Balakrishnan and he promised me that the police would be evicted from the ground after the bypolls, he said.
"We will not allow anybody to fence the ground and it can be used by any organisation for its activities with municipality's consent," chairman said. As per the municipal authorities, it is municipality which pays the land taxes of the ground, which was leased to them on March 1, 1933. However, police said that there was no need to pay the taxes for the ground as it was a government property.
Janasakthi town general secretary Salim Pulimootil said that the ground witnessed the rise of many sports men in various fields like hockey, football.
Local people and organisations could conduct various programmes there sans any problems. However, the police have monopolised the ground for the last three years and at present any organisation which needs to conduct a programme in the ground should approach SP, he said. The present SP who has not a good image among the public, media and his colleagues through his famous rude character is not ready to give consent properly, a social activist said.

News Alert for Sun., Aug. 4, 2013
(**Bulletin)E-mod racer dies of apparent heart attack during feature race at Stateline Speedway...
For the first time in it's storied history... there's been a driver fatality at Stateline Speedway. Multiple sources have told us the racer apparently suffered a heart attack while racing in the E-Mod Feature last Saturday night at the Busti racing facility. One source says the race car slowed... and, struck the wall between turns three and four after the driver was striken. However... hitting the wall reportedly did not cause the man to die. He was pulled from the car, and, put on a back-board, and taken by ambulance to the hospital. We are withholding the racer's name -- at this time -- because he has not been identified by authorities. Up until this point... in the 57-year history of Stateline Speedway... there had not been a fatality among drivers actually racing on the track. We did place a call to Stateline Owner Jennifer Seamens for further detail... but, were unable to reach her.

Bangkok, November 9, 2016 - The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) continues to underline its commitment to develop Thai listed firms' quality towards sustainable growth by announcing the Thailand Sustainability Investment (THSI) 2016 list, showcasing listed companies with outstanding performance on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) aspects from its annual sustainability assessment.
SET President Kesara Manchusree stated that SET initiated and successfully arranged the THSI last year. This year the number of listed firms meeting the qualifications criteria has increased to 55 firms from 51 firms last year, consisting of 49 SET-listed firms and 6 firms on Market for Alternative Investment (mai). The average total score also increased to 66 percent from 60 percent, as well as the average total score in Economic (Included governance), Environmental, and Social aspects which also increased especially Social aspect with 7 percent rise from a year ago. By industry, five from eight industries had higher average score. Industry with highest average score was Resources, while Financials industry made outstanding progress in term of sustainability performance, rising to 69 percent from 58 percent last year. This reflected Thai listed firms' focus on operating business by taking ESG aspects into consideration, in line with SET's strategic plan to promote quality of listed firms.
"Sustainable investing has grown significantly among global investors who not only focus on financial returns but also on ESG aspects. The studies from MIT Sloan Management Review and the Boston Consulting Group, collected from more than 3,000 fund managers and investors from more than 100 firms worldwide, found that 50 percent of investors said they do not invest in a firm with poor sustainability performance, while 60 percent believe that sustainability practices can lower a firm's cost of capital and help generate return in the long run," added Kesara.
To pass sustainability assessment, each participating firm must achieve scores at least 50 percent in economic, social and environmental dimensions and further meet qualifications criteria. This year, additional criteria embrace business performance and governance aspect related to ESG. The distinguished panel of judges consisted of renowned professionals on corporate governance and corporate social responsibility as well as related organizations in the capital market.

Note: The German city of Bonn is located some fifteen miles south of Cologne on the Rhine river. Romans documented a river crossing here in the 1st century BCE, and occupied a fortress here from the 1st to the 5th century CE. It was a Frankish town from the 9th century, and from the 13th century was a prosperous town, the capital of the electorate and archbishopric of Cologne. It was occupied by the French from 1794, and then annexed to Prussia in 1815. In the 19th century it grew famous as a rich, fashionable cit y, remaining as such until World War II, when it was heavily damaged. From 1949 to 1990 it was the capital of West Germany and grew in size and importance, annexing several nearby towns in 1969. Efforts were made to preserve the residential look of the city and so only restricted light industry was allowed, Bonn is a cultural center, famed as the birthplace of the composer Ludwig van Beethoven. It has many musical institutions, including an orchestra, and hosts many national and international concerts, mainly in its modern concert hall, the Beethovenhalle. There are many private theaters and performance halls and a large municipal theater that hosts opera, drama, ballet, and musicals. There are two major museums. Its historic architecture includes a Romanesque basilica surmounted by five towers, and three old churches dating from the 10th, 11th, and 12th centuries respectively. There is also the former Electorate Palace, now the Rhenish Friedrich Wilhelm University of Bonn, founded 1786 and the Poppelsdorf Palace, which has botanical gardens. Generally the city is well provided with green open spaces and broad tree-lined streets. The estimated population for 2004 was 311,000.

Amazon has an amazing deal for a PS4 Pro with Spider-Man and Special Edition Fallout 76 for just £339
By Sam Loveridge 2018-11-22T18:00:53Z News
I think my Spidey senses are tingling for this deal
Deals on Sony's PS4 Pro console can come quite regularly, but not one like this. Amazon has an absolute steal on a 1TB PS4 Pro that comes with Spider-Man PS4 and Fallout 76 S.P.E.C.I.A.L Edition that comes with the game, exclusive in-game content and a set of pin badges, all for £339. That's even cheaper than buying a standalone PS4 Pro, which usually also retails for £349. That's quite the insane start to the official Cyber Monday PS4 deals.
PS4 Pro 1TB with Spider-Man and Fallout 76: S.P.E.C.I.A.L Edition for £339.99 at Amazon
Two games, including one special edition, for £10 less than the RRP. Spidey would be proud
Usually you get a PS4 Pro, maybe with a game if you're lucky, for £349 so getting two games and the 1TB Black PS4 Pro is quite the deal. Maybe combine it with a deal on an extra PS4 DualShock 4 controller and you'll be well away for the foreseeable gaming future.
If this deal doesn't float your boat, keep your eyes peeled on our constantly updated Black Friday game deals hub for deals on consoles, TVs, games, accessories and more.


King Threadfin are a popular target for sportfishers due to the level of skill required to be able to target them successfully and often.
Queensland Fisheries monitors boat ramps up and down the coast as a part of the Sustainable Fisheries Strategy. No King Threadfin were reported in 2017. Monitoring continues in 2018.
King Threadfin are a prized sports species in most locations across Queensland. In the Whitsundays, King Threadfin are targeted mostly by Sportfishers.
Queensland Fisheries monitors commercial catches up and down the coast. Commercial fishers are required to maintain logbooks of catch and report quarterly. The commercial catch of King Threadfin in the Whitsundays (see Area Fished sections) represented 0.55% share of the total statewide catch in 2017. Monitoring is ongoing in 2018.
Yellowfin Bream and Pikey Bream are caught throughout the Gladstone region. Commercially they are targetted in Grids S30,S31 (Gladstone) as well as T30,T31 (Rodds Bay) which are not included as that also covers Agnes Waters/1770.

Q: Fetch db data depending on selected drop down value Is it possible to fetch data from db upon changing value of my drop down, I want to pull up the data that corresponds to the value of the drop down and show it to a text area, I got the codes that I've tried to create just don't know how to make it work to what I want.
I want my page to just initially show the drop down then after selecting a value it will show the data in a text area without refreshing the page, here is the code:

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="" >
<fieldset>
<legend>EA</legend>

<select name="ea_name" id="ea_name">
<option value="" selected="selected">Please select...</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
</select>

</fieldset>
</form>

I am thinking an "onchange" could do it but just dont know how to implement it, also want to echo the resulting data to a text area within a fieldset.
Here is the code that I've tried that will pull up data and show to a text area:
<?php
require 'include/DB_Open.php';

$ea_name = $_POST['ea_name'];

$sql="SELECT * FROM ea_error WHERE ea_name = '" . $ea_name . "'";

$myData = mysql_query($sql);

//to count if there are any results
$numrow = mysql_num_rows($myData);

if($numrow == 0)
{
    echo "No results found.";
}
else
{
echo "<fieldset><legend>Information</legend>

Error

;"

while($info = mysql_fetch_array($myData))
{
echo "<form action='retrieve.php' method='post'>";

echo"

echo  "" . $info['error'] . "<input type=hidden name=error value=" . $info['error'] . " 	";
echo  "" . $info['resolution'] . "<input type=hidden name=resolution value=" . $info['resolution'] . " size='11' maxlength='11' /> 	";
echo  "" . $info['contacts'] . "<input type=hidden name=contacts value=" . $info['contacts'] . "' /> 	";
echo "
";
echo "</form>";
}
}
echo "</fieldset>";

include 'include/DB_Close.php';
?>

UPDATED CODE:
<?php
require 'include/DB_Open.php';

$ea_name = $_POST['ea_name'];

$sql="SELECT * FROM ea_error WHERE ea_name = '" . $ea_name . "'";

$myData = mysql_query($sql);

//to count if there are any results
$numrow = mysql_num_rows($myData);

if($numrow == 0)
{
    echo "No results found.";
}
else
{
echo '<fieldset><legend>Information</legend>

while($info = mysql_fetch_array($myData))

echo  "" . $info['resolution'] . "<input type=hidden name=resolution value=" . $info['resolution'] . " size='11' maxlength='11' /> 	";
echo  "" . $info['contacts'] . "<input type=hidden name=contacts value=" . $info['contacts'] . "' /> 	";
echo "
";
echo "</form>";
}
}
echo "</fieldset>";

include 'include/DB_Close.php';
?>

A: This should do the trick.  Just put this javascript either in script tags in the head of your page, after the jQuery include, or in another js file and include that after jQuery...
$(function() {  //  document.ready
    $("#ea_name").on("change", function() {
        $.ajax({
            url: "phpfile.php",
            type: "POST",
            data: {
                ea_name: $(this).val()
            },
            success: function(data) {
                $("#results").html(data);
            }
        });
    });
});

It assigns an event handler to the change event of the drop down.  When this is triggered it sends an ajax request to your php file (don't forget to put the correct filename for the url!) which then returns the html.  This is then pushed into the results div.
Note: I fixed a typo that may or may not be in your php file.  At the end of the line where you create the query, you'd missed a closing ".  Just in case that was a copy and paste from the real file.

A: You have to implement ajax call to php file with ea_name as post parameter file. and place response to specific div.


Begin with filling: In the top of a double boiler, combine marsala and flour until smooth. Add jam, rind, and juices and heat, stirring continuously with a whisk until thickened. Spoon three tablespoons of the hot mixture into the egg yolks, stirring to temper, then add the yolks to the pot and continue stirring until thick and coating the whisk. Turn off heat, pour apricot cream into another container and set aside.
For ganache: Heat coconut milk and Grand Marnier in the top of the double boiler until just barely simmering. Put white chocolate into a bowl, and pour coconut milk over white chocolate, let sit a few moments and then stir to combine melted chocolate. Set aside.
For pastry: Preheat oven to 375°F Spray either a standard loaf pan or a 8x9 baking pan with cooking spray. Separate puff pastry sheets and roll out roughly to the size of your baking pan or loaf pan. Lay a sheet in the bottom of the pan, and spoon 2 or 3 teaspoons of apricot cream filling over it, spreading almost to the edges. Combine diced apricots and orange zest in a bowl. Spread the apricots & zest mixture over this and top with another sheet of pastry. Continue layering pastry, cream and fruit mixture, ending with a sheet of pastry. Top the sheet with a final layer of apricot cream, and then bake for 30 minutes, until the edges have puffed up golden brown. The cream on top should be smooth and shiny.
Drizzle the white chocolate ganache over all and garnish with any left over apricot and orange zest mixture and crumbled bits of white chocolate.

The Hon. Ruth Hubbard (b. Westminster, 30 October 1896, d. Addington, 23 August 1955) was a Girl Guide leader and six times Mayoress of Buckingham. She was a recipient of the Silver Fish Award, Girl Guiding's highest adult honour.

Personal life
Ruth Mary Hubbard was the youngest daughter of Egerton Hubbard, 2nd Baron Addington and Mary Adelaide Portal. The family home was Seven Gables in the village of Addington, Buckinghamshire. She attended schools in Aldeburgh, Suffolk and West Drayton, Middlesex.

She was a devout Christian, regularly attending St. Mary's Church in Addington. She also supported the Free Churches and the Buckingham Corps of the Salvation Army, occasionally preaching at Buckingham's Army Hall. She served as Secretary of the Buckingham Church Union in the early 1930s.

Hubbard was a keen gardener, supporting the Buckingham and District Horticultural Society. In 1933 in order to protect her crops, she "destroyed 1,020 cabbage butterflies". She also bred pedigree rabbits and was the President of the Buckingham Beekeepers' Association.

She was well travelled. She visited South Africa in 1921. In 1927-8 she travelled to Shanghai to meet her brother, Rt. Hon. Lord Addington, who had been Custodian of Enemy Property in China for four years. They returned to the UK via Japan, Korea, Honolulu, mainland USA and Canada. She also travelled to Russia and Denmark, and, following WWII, to Oberammergau, Germany, after which she reported that "at one stage there were French, German and British in the same railway compartment and one of them remarked how wonderful it was that they should all be travelling together as friends once again."

Hubbard died at home following a heart attack on 23 August 1955. In her will she left the majority of her estate (over £20,000) to her companion of 20 years, Annie Lisbeth McKenzie, who had nursed Hubbard's mother in the final year of her life, subsequently becoming Hubbard's housekeeper, secretary and chauffeuse. Hubbard in turn nursed McKenzie through ill health, giving her "unfailing attention and care". They attended church together and supported the work of the Salvation Army and the Red Cross.

War service
During WWI Hubbard was a nurse. During WWII she was a warden's messenger for the A.R.P., secretary of Buckingham's National Savings Movement, a volunteer for the Parcels Scheme and helped the elderly and infirm with hospital transport. She was a member of Winslow's British Red Cross Detachment 88, which involved welcoming repatriated POWs to RAF Westcott, which was in operation between 1942 and 1946.

Fundraising
She was an organising secretary for Buckingham's 1941 War Weapons Week fundraiser, which raised £168,040. In 1944 the village of Addington raised £3,219 for Salute the Soldier week, having set an initial target of £350.

Girl Guides
Hubbard was in charge of the Addington and Buckingham Girl Guides from 1918.
From 1918 to 1924 she was a District Commissioner for Buckinghamshire, becoming Division Commissioner for Buckinghamshire North from 1924 to 1927. In 1927 until at least 1933 she was the Assistant Division Commissioner for all of Buckinghamshire. Whilst in South Africa and Shanghai she took a "keen interest" in the work of the local Girl Guides' Associations. In 1930 she donated the District Shield to the Buckingham Girl Guides, to be awarded annually for the "best Guide work". She herself was a recipient of the Silver Fish Award, the Girl Guide movement's highest adult honour. Towards the end of WWII, she was appointed by the Home Office to introduce Girl Guiding to Aylesbury's Borstal Institution, now HM Prison Aylesbury.

Community service
Amongst the many organisations that Hubbard supported were the St John Ambulance and Nursing Association, the Women's Institute, Buckingham's District Nursing Association, Northampton Hospital, Buckingham Hospital (founded by Hubbard's family) and the Mothers' Union. She volunteered for the Winslow Red Cross "Not So Young" Club and was a member of the Buckingham Friendship Club. Over a period years she hosted youth camps at her home, and in 1936 opened it to hospital patients after a fire at Buckingham Hospital.

Other community roles included:
 1934 – chair, Winslow Branch of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC)
 1934-38 – Vice-president, Winslow Women's Institute (WI), and a member of the WI Education Committee
 1938 – Member, Winslow Branch of the North Bucks Women's Conservative Association, becoming vice president in 1939
 Late 1930s to 1945 – Standard Bearer and Vice President, Buckingham Women's Section of the British Legion, becoming president from 1945 to 1946
 1940s – chair, Buckingham District Nursing Association
 1950 – chair, Buckingham Branch of the United Nations Association

Holiday camps for mothers
Hubbard was active in improving the welfare of mothers from London's slums. Together with Lady Addington, she organised a series of holiday camps for mothers at her home, attended by members of the Mothers' Union of St. Mary's, Somers Town, London. She would lead twice-daily prayers and also acted as Medical Officer.

Public service
Hubbard was Mayoress of Buckingham six times, in conjunction with her brother, the Rt. Hon. Lord Addington, who was elected Mayor from 1932 to 1934, 1943-6 and 1951–2. Her brother was unmarried and asked Hubbard to take the role on. During her first term as Mayoress, an ox-roast drew protest from passionate vegetarian George Bernard Shaw, and saw her name mentioned in the satirical magazine Punch. She was appointed a Justice of the peace for the Borough of Buckingham in 1939. In 1945 she was outspoken about the lack of female representation on Buckingham Borough Council, pointing out that Buckingham "lagged behind the times".

Bears the name of the immortal Col. Zebulon Butler, always the first historical and cherished name connected with that of Luzerne county. It has a superficial area of thirty-one square miles, and the larger part of, in fact nearly the entire section, is arable land—the land of plenty and the quiet of the prosperous farmer's life. It is principally a part of the Sugarloaf valley, once the name of the entire valley along the Nescopeck. Here for more than a century the farmer has gone afield and tilled the soil. Originally it was all upland and valley, covered with a dense forest, and was a prolific hunting ground; then the woodsman came and felled the trees, and the numerous early sawmills along the creek cut the timber and it was carried away to market.
Butler township was made from territory of Sugarloaf in 1839. A part of the south of the township was taken off and added to Hazle township in 1861. The belief of Stewart Pearce, who was a careful historian, and he is confirmed by Moses Compeer and others of Northampton county's Revolutionary authorities is that John Balliett was the "solitary and alone" first comer to make a home in this [that] beautiful valley. Pearce says he had been one of the burial party who came to bury the victims of the Sugarloaf massacre, and, seeing that place so soon after the troubles and dangers were over, came and located. But the truth is now known that Balliett had intended to be one of the party, but was prevented by sickness from coming, that he was deeply interested in the expedition, and when the party returned he spent much time with different members thereof and made close inquiries as to what they had seen on the trip. These described to him the valley in which they had buried the dead, the beautiful Nescopeck, flowing nearly through its center, the fish, the game and the broad, smooth, level acres of land on each side, and this fired Balliett's imagination, and very wisely he determined that he would seek it out and here make a home for himself and his posterity. The results of this determination, after more than a century, are with us to-day in the numerous descendants of John Balliett in this section of the county, who are and have always been among the prominent people of Luzerne county. Balliett, with wife and two children, came here from the south or Northampton county in 1784. His possessions were packed on the one horse he possessed, and the two small children, one of whom was probably Stephen Balliett, were in beegums strapped across the horse's back, while the husband and wife trudged afoot. In another place is given an account of the memorable voyage of this avant courier of the coming hordes of men, and the writer was shown by Mr. C.F. Hill the probable spot on the side of Buck mountain where the strap broke and the children in their respective "gums" went rolling about the mountain side. John Balliett, the first day after his arrival, built, put up, erected or constructed, as you please, the first residence, home, castle or dwelling in the valley. The architecture was "simple and sublime"—poles leaned against a big tree and covered with brush and leaves—and here the family slept, the boys, no doubt, too tired to even have nightmare dreams that they were still fast in the "gums" and rolling and tossing about the steep mountain side. John Balliett and wife dreamed in sweet content of their future home and its abundance and happy content—brave, as were all the pioneers, as to their ability to meet and overcome the obstructions that lay in their way, the years of toil and loneliness and the inevitable deprivations and of the distance from the world's older settlements. John Balliett settled here in 1784. It has been asserted, and has so found its way into print, that G.H. Riep (sometimes written Reab) came here as a settler in 1782, two years before Balliett; that he located on the Joseph Woodring place, and that he died in 1794 and was buried in the old German church cemetery. Those that followed Balliett, whether the same or the next year, is not certain, were Benner (Harry), Shobers, Dolphs, Hill, Bachelor and Spaides. There are now numerous descendants of these pioneers still here and in other parts of the county. The name of Spaide has been and is still spelled different ways. The early chroniclers generally spelled it S-p-a-d-e, but Spaide, Spaid, Spayd and Spayde are some of the many variations. Among the early settlers were Philip Woodring, Henry Davis, Andrew Mowery and George Drum. The latter's son, Abraham Drum, was high sheriff of Luzerne county at one time. His son, George, was father of Hon. G. W. Drum, of Conyngham. This was so long a part of Sugarloaf township that the reader is referred to the list of early settlers, as given in the account of that township, for the particulars of who were here up to 1835. Pearce says that Samuel Woodring as early as 1788 built the first saw and gristmill on Nescopeck creek. Both were very small in their way; the gristmill had one set of stones, which were "home made." Other authorities say that Woodring put up his mill on the Big Nescopeck, on the mill site of Straw & Sons, in 1813. The latter is the more reasonable story, as Mr. Stephen Balliett remembers, when he was ten years old, of going to mill many miles, over to Lizard creek, to Sultz's mill. Some time after 1800 the ancient mill story might have been repeated of the settlers of Butler, where the man and ox team went to mill, and in the long way and long wait had eaten every grain of corn, the load that the cattle could haul, and had to return home for more to grind. In the meantime the wife and children, waiting and looking for the man's return, were living along by calling "the fat part meat and the lean part bread."

Q: SQL UPDATE set and ID with another ID min value Im trying to update a table I have the same Data but with different ID's so i would like to set the ID of both communs to the lowest ID register for the results.
  UPDATE TABLENAME
      SET EXAMPLEID = LOWER(EXAMPLEID)
      WHERE
      TID = TID
      AND
      KID = KID
      AND
      STREET = STREET

I'm getting the following error:

Msg 8102, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot update identity column
  'EXAMPLEID'

A: You can't update an identity column. You may insert new records with an explicit value using IDENTITY_INSERT, but SQL Server won't let you do an update.
If you really need to do this, the only option you have is to copy the full table temporarily and recreate your final table again with the updated values. This is strongly NOT recommended:

*

*Create a copy of your table, with all related objects (indexes, constraints, etc.), but with no rows (only schema objects).
CREATE TABLE TABLENAME_Mirror (
    ExampleID INT IDENTITY,
    TID VARCHAR(100),
    KID VARCHAR(100),
    STREET VARCHAR(100))

*Set IDENTITY_INSERT ON on this new table and insert the records with the updated values.
SET IDENTITY_INSERT TABLENAME_Mirror ON

INSERT INTO TABLENAME_Mirror (
    ExampleID,
    TID,
    KID,
    STREET)
SELECT
    /*Updated values*/
FROM
    --....

SET IDENTITY_INSERT TABLENAME_Mirror OFF

*Drop the original table and rename the copied one to the original name:
BEGIN TRANSACTION

    IF OBJECT_ID('dbo.TABLENAME') is not null
        DROP TABLE dbo.TABLENAME

    EXEC sys.sp_rename
        'dbo.TABLENAME_Mirror',
        'TABLENAME'

COMMIT

You might need to reseed the identity with a proper value once the rows are inserted, if you want to keep the same seed as before.

A: Identity Column is generally used with Primary Key column. In your case if ExampleID is your primary key  and also identity Column, You cannot have same ExampleID on two different rows.
Primary Key Column is unique for every row
On the other hand If your column is not PK but Identity Column, then SQL Server does not allow you to update Identity Key Column Value.
But there is a dirty workaround alternative for this (Not Recommended)

The Indiana medical malpractice lawyers at Garau Germano Hanley & Pennington, P.C. are frequently faced with cases involving deep vein thrombosis. Deep vein thrombosis (or DVT) is a condition where a blood clot forms in one or more the body's deep veins, usually in the lower legs.
The major risk from DVT is a pulmonary embolism. A pulmonary embolism occurs when a piece of the clot breaks off and travels to the lung. A pulmonary embolism can have serious consequences for the patient, including sudden death.
Hospital patients who have been immobilized for prolonged periods of time or who have undergone major surgery are particularly susceptible to DVT and resulting pulmonary embolism. Doctors can reduce the risk of DVT and pulmonary embolism through the use of medications and other methods.
The failure to take appropriate steps to prevent DVT may be malpractice. An experienced medical malpractice attorney can evaluate such claims and help determine whether legal action is appropriate.

I used to use laser printers in my office. Then the color inkjet printers became so cheap and convenient that I completely forgot about the laser printer. Recently I found that the ink cartridges are getting so expensive (they are becoming a rip-off!) and last so short that I decide to go back to the laser printer again (their price has become competitive with inkjet printers. I like the much higher speed and more uniform quality. My print outs look more professional also.

BeatlesFan3287 - Pink Floyd's most mature album.
Pink Floyd was already on top of the world when they released this album which, in a way, is the most audacious record they ever recorded. This album has more of a unified concept than anything else in the Pink Floyd discography. A rock opera much like The Who's "Tommy", and Genesis' "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway", this album tells the story of a troubled rock star who becomes emotionally detached and downright sadistic. The album works much like a film: the protagonist, named Pink, goes through a tragic story of metal decline, and eventually redemption. He slowly builds a "wall" around himself, completely shutting himself from the world outside his mind.
Much of the story is based on Roger Water own life. Like Pink, he lost a father during the war, and also like Pink, he became a emotionally disturbed rock star. The main character's story is also much like that of former member Syd Barrett, who left the band after metal illness and drug abuse caught up to him. The album take on a very depressing tone as the protagonist's life spirals out of control. Every horrific event in his life such as the death of his father, the abuse of school teachers, and his divorce install another "brick" in the wall. The concept is unlike anything ever thought of in rock music. You don't even see this kind of story much in film with the exception of a few like "A Clock Work Orange" and "Taxi Driver"; both of which have plots similar to "The Wall".
This plot, however, would not work well if the music wasn't anything exceptional. Yet, the music is some of the best Pink Floyd has ever recorded. Aside from the usual eerie soundscapes, their is a lot of dialog that moves the story along. And then there's David Gilmour's guitar work. His solos on "Hey You", and especially "Comfortably Numb" have become classic rock standards. And of course there's the famous childrens chorus on the second part of "Another Brick In The Wall", which helped elevate that song to legendary status.
This is about as mature as classic rock can get. It has a message, and it goes to the extreme to convey that message to its listeners. The message that redemption can come even for the most destructive of souls is an age old rhetoric that is creatively presented here is an effortless fashion. A must have for those who like to "think" when they listen to rock.
The murad website has changed, but it still offers resources for specific types of skin aging and also a what is your skin type questionnaire to help you choose what is best for you. This product is wonderful if it is what you need, not just as a highly rated eye cream. it works for me, but may not for you. I have used many murad products and have found the kits are a good way to try and see which products best suit me as I have hormonal and aging issues. Do your research and you will find a mix of murad products that should work for you.

Below is an instance of a timetable for the first semester of the BA programme in schooling science. Children combine completely different chemicals in check tubes as a part of a science education program. However, the initiative made it possible for both new and existing colleges to obtain funding for STEM training. College students specialising in secondary education will qualify as specialist science or mathematics lecturers, whereas college students specialising in primary education shall be certified to teach across the varsity curriculum but with extremely valued specialist expertise in science related areas.
You'll develop expertise in scientific reasoning and have the opportunity to apply them within the laboratory and in subject settings, including on excavations and survey initiatives in Australia and overseas. Pupil in pesantren modeled this salaf (classical) not only research public sciences (like biology, physics, arithmetic, language, and art) they also studies Islam science for the sake of particular person and public.
To ascertain core understanding of this area, you'll look at the foundational disciplines of public well being including: epidemiology, biostatistics, health techniques, environmental health and social sciences. The training subject is much like drugs was within the Nineteenth Century, a human observe, guided by instinct, experience, and infrequently inspiration.


Any metered interconnect charging is ruinous and has to go. Interestingly, Cable and Wireless Communications agree with us; they lobbied OFTEL in early 1997 for a change similar to what we propose here. OFTEL turned them down at the time and there, it would seem, the matter has rested.
That decision by OFTEL was no surprise, as the interconnect model in this country is their baby: they set the per-minute rates and police them.
Instead of ongoing metered payments between telecommunications operators, they agree in advance to buy blocks of bandwidth at commercial rates. Once the bandwidth is bought, the purchaser can chop it up for its subscribers as it sees fit; this gives complete flexibility in tariffing. In the event of a dispute, the regulator acts as referee with the power to impose rates.
The EU Interconnection Pricing paper gives a list of several countries and the interconnect model used in each. Note that the three countries listed with unmetered access (Australia, New Zealand and the USA) and the one with the cheapest metered access (Sweden) have 'Negotiations between the parties ...' as their model; the two countries with more expensive metered access (Denmark, UK) have 'National Regulatory Authority sets rates ...'!
In an ideal situation, where an industry comprised established players with relatively stable market shares, capacity-based charging would be the most efficient interconnect pricing rule.
Surely we must be there or thereabouts?

For Wind Turbines, Turbulence Is the Work of the Devil
Internationaliseringsstipendium | 17/06/2016
Wind turbines convert kinetic energy of the wind into electricity. The more it blows - the more is produced. We all know, however, that the wind is rarely steady; a constant wind speed from a single wind direction rarely occurs. Instead it fluctuates in a chaotic and seemingly random way. These fluctuations are known as turbulence.
By Associate Professor, PhD Jacob Berg, Technical University of Denmark
Wind turbines convert kinetic energy of the wind into electricity. The more it blows - the more is produced. We all know, however, that the wind is rarely steady; a constant wind speed from a single wind direction rarely occurs.
Instead it fluctuates in a chaotic and seemingly random way. These fluctuations are known as turbulence and still continue to puzzle scientists around the world. Many still consider turbulence as the biggest unsolved problem in the world of classical physics. Therefore, it might not surprise you that this article does not contain a solution to the problem nor does it try to solve it.
Besides being a scientific challenge, turbulence also constitutes one of the main pillars which modern wind turbines are designed after. The turbulence in the atmosphere close to the ground exerts forces on the wind turbines (called loads) which over time will limit its lifetime and therefore decrease the financial potential. With regard to wind turbines one could say that turbulence is the work of the devil.
In my work, I study atmospheric turbulence in order to address its qualities and quantify the levels encountered by wind turbines. I use a blend of atmospheric observations together with numerical Large Eddy Simulation (LES), which is computer models based on the famous Navier-Stokes equation and require extensive computer power.
LES was the focus of my one and a half year stay at the National Center for Atmospheric Research supported by the Carlsberg Foundation and hence the main subject for this short overview article.
Wind energy on land (onshore) comprises one of the cheapest electricity forms today and in the next 20 years [1]. From a social-economic point of view, it therefore makes a lot of sense to study turbulence and in this context the turbulence of the atmosphere. The Carlsberg Foundation supports among others basic research within natural sciences i.e. the physics of turbulence.
This subject also meet one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals e.g. affordable and clean energy. This research project therefore manages to link basic research together with sustainability and "green tech" industrial development.
The Need for Turbulent Research in Wind Energy
The interaction between the Earth surface and the atmosphere above it generates a layer of turbulent motion, which depending on time and location can vary between a couple of kilometres and down to tens of metres. In this layer, the atmospheric boundary layer, we put turbines and expect them to operate for at least 20 years.
Various engineering models of turbulence based on a mathematical/statistical approach can tell us beforehand whether a given site can be used to host a turbine. By performing such a site assessment study most of the 'bad locations' are filtered away, and with perfect turbulence models we would in principle be able to predict the damage done over time from the turbulence to the turbine.
However, the problem is that no perfect turbulence model exists. Each model is built on a set of assumptions about mainly the external conditions. These could for example be 'no heat exchange with the Earth's surface', 'only flat terrain around the turbine' or 'no non-Gaussian turbulence with very gusty events embedded'.
Figure 1: Sketch of LES methodology
One of the most advanced tool to run on a super-computer is a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model, which is directly based on the (spatial filtered) Navier-Stokes equation (Figure 1). For all practical matters regarding siting of wind turbines LES is today too difficult to use. However, in a research context, it is exactly the tool we need.
Using the tool i.e. Being a big box of the atmosphere, we have the possibility to ask relevant questions and study them in an isolated manner. For example, we know that the atmospheric turbulence is not Gaussian as assumed in most turbulence models (Figure 2), but does the turbine care at all? Does this effect the calculation of loads for the turbine? Most likely not…[2]
Figure 2: To the right we look at a horizontal snapshot of the vertical velocity component of LES generated atmospheric turbulence - non-Gaussian by nature. Notice the swirly motion viz a Michelangelo painting. The same picture (same second order statistics, to be precise) to the right is Gaussian and clearly different in nature from its left counterpart.
LES and the Study of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer over Complex Terrain
For turbines on land, we often find that the landscape in which they are embedded generates very complex flow phenomena which not only increase the turbulence level beyond any turbine design criterion but also lower the power production and hence all parts of the financial aspects of a wind turbine project.
Wind lidars, which are remote sensing instruments based on laser doppler techniques are being developed, and can monitor the atmospheric boundary layer above large areas of interest in a wind turbine context.
The lidar system, however, still has its flaws [3], and LES therefore provides an alternative look into the flow occurring over complex terrain features such as hills, escarpments, forests etc. [4]. Especially flow over hills are well studied since the speed-up on top of the hill due to the compression of streamlines can be utilised by a wind turbine to produce more power (Figure 3).
However, often the picture is not that simple and nothing is gained. On the contrary the opposite happens, kinetic energy is extracted from the mean wind field and converted to fields of fluctuating wind (turbulence) which ultimately will give rise to higher loads and less power production.
Figure 3: Double hill [5]. Snapshot of the streamwise velocity calculated from in LES [4]. Legends gives velocity in metres / second. Large recirculation zones observed behind the hill tops with huge levels of turbulence kinetic energy (not shown in this figure). Large speed-up is observed over the second hill top.
Time Spent Wisely at the National Center for Atmospheric Research
With the two Internationalisation Fellowships generously granted by the Carlsberg Foundation, I got the chance to work closely together with some of the best in the field of LES of atmospheric turbulence, namely Dr Edward (Ned) G. Patton and Dr Peter P. Sullivan at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado.
The happy memories of my years being a master and PhD. student came back to me through the very inspiring discussions and lively scientific environment present at NCAR. Bringing my new knowledge back to DTU Wind Energy has been both fruitful and inspiring. LES have until now been considered an overly expensive and not very useful tool in wind energy research. With support from the Carlsberg Foundation I believe this is about to change.

Parker Valley Hope is located south of Denver, a half mile outside the small town of Parker in a comfortable, country setting. It opened in 1989 to provide affordable care under the umbrella of the already established Valley Hope Association, a nationally known non-profit that has been offering drug and alcohol treatment services for over 47 years. The facility relies primarily on 12-step philosophy to treat clients, and will work out payment plans for those who can't afford to pay up front (or for those whose insurance won't cover their treatment).
Parker Valley Hope is a freestanding lodge with 10 detox beds (five for men, five for women) and 40 residential beds, with two residents to a room. Each is decorated in basic dormitory décor and features two full size beds, a closet, dressers and a shared bathroom. Aside from the bedrooms, PVH also boasts a dayroom with a pool table and comfy couches where residents can socialize or journal during down time. While food service is nothing too fancy, PVH's kitchen staff provides three wholesome, home-style meals daily with a salad bar available during lunch.
Parker Valley Hope offers an on-site medical detox with medication when necessary, all administered by medical professionals including a pharmacist, an MD and a nurse practitioner. They also employ a 24-hour nursing staff for assessment and medical care, as well as an on-site psychologist and a non-denominational chaplain.
Residential treatment means 40 hours a week of therapy with CADCs, and a staff-to-client ratio of one-to-five. The approach includes psycho-educational groups, off-site AA meetings, 12-step discussion, films, lectures and individual and small group counseling. While PVH does not offer DBT or EMDR, it can refer clients to therapists who can provide those services upon discharge. The facility also offers an outpatient program for residents and family members alike, as it strongly believes that family involvement is an integral part of comprehensive recovery; the program runs six to eight hours a day, seven days a week (though program duration is flexible).
One bonus PVH offers is the ability to receive treatment online, which includes a blend of face-to-face therapy and phone therapy; DUI services are also available online. While this is an interesting add-on, it should still be mentioned that this is a specialized option only and not a substitute for a longer inpatient program.
While Parker Valley Hope may be a basic, old-fashioned recovery facility, it still does its best with a relatively modest set of resources. Additionally, the Valley Hope Association has plenty of experience helping addicts across the country, and have developed a trustworthy reputation for affordable treatment. Finally, PVH's payment plan is a definite perk for those who would otherwise have trouble seeking help, and goes a long way in expressing their sincere desire to help all addicts and alcoholics get a fair shot at recovery.

Calakmul is a huge Maya site located deep inside the tropical forest of the Tierras Bajas of southern Mexico.
The City of the Two Adjacent Pyramids, Calakmul was one of the most important Mayan cities of the lowlands together with archrival Tikal.
There are 6,750 ancient structures identified at Calakmul; the largest of which is the great pyramid at the site.
Structure 2 is over 45 metres (148 ft) high, making it one of the tallest of the Maya pyramids. Like many temples or pyramids within Mesoamerica the pyramid at Calakmul increased in size by building upon the existing temple to reach its current size.
The most prominent building in Muyil is its pyramid.
Atop it, one can get a great view of the surrounding jungle and nearby lagoon that is part of the Si'an Kan Biosphere.
Muyil archaeological site is located on the mainland side of a lagoon in the Sian Ka´an Biosphere.
This ecological area of 1.3 million acres houses many secrets.
The residential remains of the city cover some eight square miles (20 square kilometers), and its extensive system of canals and reservoirs once served a population of over 50,000 Mayans.
Calakmul was first sighted from an airplane in 1931 by Cyrus L Lundell during a botanical expedition.
It was he who gave it its present name, made up of the Mayan words ca (two), lak (near), and mul (mount/pyramid).

Extinction Rebellion to take over A40 between Gloucester and Cheltenham
They will take over the major Gloucestershire road on Sunday
Ellis LaneSenior Digital Reporter
The A40 heading from Gloucester to Cheltenham (Image: Google Maps)
Extinction Rebellion will take over the A40 between Gloucester and Cheltenham this weekend.
The campaign group, along with local cyclists, will takeover a lane of the A40 on Sunday to highlight the climate emergency and safety concerns.
As part of nationwide action, Extinction Rebellion Gloucestershire will stage a symbolic cycle ride from Shire Hall, Gloucester, to Pittville Park, Cheltenham, via the A40 dual carriageway.
The Ride for Life will commemorate the 140 cyclists who are killed or injured every year on Gloucestershire's roads.
Gloucestershire Extinction Rebellion groups are calling on local governments to protect and support citizens who travel by clean, sustainable and healthy methods.
Norm Kemp, Cheltenham Extinction Rebellion member, said: "Gloucestershire's cities and towns have the potential to be great places for everyone to get around by bike.
"Cycling is a healthy, speedy and cheap solution for short journeys, as well as reducing local pollution and global greenhouse emissions. But heavy traffic makes it a daunting prospect for new cyclists, so we get a vicious cycle of people choosing to drive because there's so many cars.
"We are demanding that Gloucestershire County Council work together with local communities and citizens to help fix this crazy situation for the benefit of all.
"Taking over the A40 dual carriageway and the route through Cheltenham will highlight that there are alternative ways to get around the county and the town without damaging the health of our neighbours and the planet. The slow cycle through Cheltenham is for everyone and anyone – even if you don't have a bike.
"On August 30 we'll show that when enough people choose to cycle instead of driving it stops being scary and becomes loads of fun. We'll press home our message that by helping people to cycle the county and district councils will boost local health and happiness, reduce local pollution, and help the planet too."
How to sign up for our Gloucestershire newsletter and never miss a big story
Thunderstorms weather warning placed over Gloucestershire by Met Office
The ride will start from Shire Hall at 11.30am and take over one lane of the A40 into Cheltenham. At 12.30pm the ride will join up with a larger group of cyclists for a family-friendly mass cycle ride and samba procession through Cheltenham to Pittville Park.
Riders will join more climate campaigners at the park for a Covid-safe family day sharing information about the climate emergency with Cheltenham residents and visitors.
Neil Bee, organiser of the Ride for Life, said: "We'recalling on the County and District councils to make Gloucestershire's streets safer for cyclists. We want to see more dedicated cycle routes, especially leading to schools, and lower speed limits where cars and cyclists share the road.
"These local benefits will also help in the global fight against the climate emergency. In Gloucestershire transport accounts for over a third of carbon dioxide pollution. Cycling should play a major part in meeting local commitments to a zero-carbon future."
