Ocean-based power plant previewed in North Side
August 4, 2014 Nomad_Kx
North Side residents got a preview last week of a proposed electric power plant that will be moored off their coastline if its proponents get the necessary approvals.
Design for 25 Mw OTEC Plant
District MLA Ezzard Miller invited representatives of OTEC International LLC to the Craddock Ebanks Civic Centre on Thursday night to explain the ocean thermal power project to his constituents.
Eileen O'Rourke, the company's chief operating officer, outlined the process by which heat in the upper layers of sea water can be turned into electricity. The process is known as Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion.
After years of research and experimentation, the technology to process this source of renewable energy is now commercially viable and a proposal has been made to be a wholesale supplier of electricity to Caribbean Utilities Company, Ms. O'Rourke said. Talks have already been held with the Caribbean Utilities Company and government officials.
The production plant would be on a purpose-built barge, or floating power platform, 140 feet wide and 200 feet long and moored less than a mile offshore. Most of the plant would be about 16 feet above the water line, with a small part of it rising another eight feet.
The structure would include pipes to circulate the sea water, moorings to the sea floor and a cable that would carry the generated power under the beach and under the road to a sub-station on land. The sub-station would connect to CUC, Ms. O'Rourke explained.
Meetings have already been held with such entities as the Department of Environment, Public Works and the Environmental Assessment Board. The plan is for necessary permits to be applied for starting in October.
"We hope to get all permits and approvals in the first quarter of 2015," Ms. O'Rourke said.
The target date for operation of the offshore power plant is the first quarter of 2017.
Pilar Bush, managing director of AtWater Consulting, confirmed that an island-wide public consultation will be held later this month.
OTEC International chose Grand Cayman for its first commercial system because CUC was "an open and willing partner" and because the Cayman government wants to move away from relying on fossil fuels, Ms. O'Rourke said. She noted that one power platform would produce 6.25 megawatts of electricity and that quantity would eliminate the need for 2.9 million gallons of imported diesel fuel annually. CUC's average production of electricity is around 70 megawatts, it was noted.
Another reason Grand Cayman was chosen was the "excellent sea conditions" – including water temperatures and deep water proximity to the shoreline. There is a well-documented history of local ocean conditions, including extreme storm conditions. North Side was chosen as the best location, she said.
In response to questions from the audience, company representatives referred to job opportunities and the development of safety protocols, along with design features for the protection of marine life.
Start-up costs for the building and installation of the power platform will be expensive, Ms. O'Rourke indicated, but sea water as a source of renewable energy means low operating costs and protection of the consumer from the volatility of oil prices.
Development of the requisite technology was funded by the Abell Foundation, a non-profit organization based in Maryland, USA since 1953, said Ms. O'Rourke, who is also treasurer of the foundation. One of its objectives is supporting innovative efforts to solve systemic social, economic and environmental problems.
In 2000, The Abell Foundation acquired an exclusive license to the OTEC technology developed over decades by Sea Solar Power's J. Hilbert Anderson and his son James Anderson. In 2001, Abell established a limited liability company with the mission bring OTEC to commercialization. The company became OTEC International LLC (OTI). Bringing the economical, renewable energy solution of ocean thermal energy conversion to developed and emerging markets is important to both OTI and Abell. More

Our union with Jesus is a great mystery. It includes the personal and global. It is singular and corporate. It is micro and macro. It includes all of humanity and each individual human. It happened 2000 years ago and is realized in each of us in the present when we "believe" what He has done. Still we realize that our union began before the foundations of the Earth were formed. I know it is a great mystery but so powerful in its substance. Our union with Jesus and with God in Jesus and cohabitation with the Holy Spirit as the image of Jesus is…well…a little overwhelming but so beautiful at the same time. I can't begin to explain it but I believe it. That is the power of faith. I don't have to understand it but I get to believe it because I trust God. Jesus is the proof that He is telling the truth. Jesus is the demonstration of His truth. Jesus is His truth. I am in union with that truth.
Jesus will reveal to each of us what we need to understand in our union with Him. This is the intoxicating revelation of His acceptance of us. His acceptance is more than a friend invited to a party. We are His blood relatives. We are His brother and His children and His wife. You can't be more accepted than that…but wait…yes you can. You are joined to Him. You are a part of Him and He is a part of you. When Jesus became a man God joined mankind. Not only that but in this mysterious union our old self died on the cross.
That is an interesting question. To me the timing of an eternal God who lives outside of time is beyond my capability to perceive in my current temporal state… but I have a better question: "What part did I play in this mystical union?" The answer? None.
I know that hurts your head and makes some upset that they didn't to have a vote in God's masterful plan of Grace but oh well. That is how good He really is. We couldn't and wouldn't do what Jesus did for us. We were stuck as mankind and as individuals. We were broken then and are waking up to our new nature now. We have all lived a life outside His reality, outside His truth of Grace but now we get to wake up to His finished work. It is so powerful in it's undiluted form, it radically changes our way of thinking and what follows is a radical change in our living. We were living dead lives of self effort believing in a dead person that wasn't real but really dead. I know, I know, it is hard to understand but if you just let it wash over you…wow!
There are some answers to this great mystery that make sense. Question:"why did we have to die to be set free?" Ans: So we would no longer be bound to a curse or in an old covenant relationship or bound to the law or married to a fallen nature. Mankind was joined to those things and derived identity from those things. The seed of mankind had to be incubated in wickedness and self effort to be born a new creation. We needed a trial of self effort to die to self effort. We needed to be joined to frustration to be resurrected in redemption. Every inseparable bond to human effort, cloaked in desperation and certain failure, was broken when we died. We had to die, really die to be free of sin. We had no capacity for success, for being like God, for producing good. We were not designed to be independent. As an independent creation subject to the law of sin and death we reproduced what we carried, sin and death.
Jesus restores everything to its original created value and intent. The good news is He didn't need us to do it or ask us to do it or even expect a response to Him doing it. He just did it. The only way for God to save us and all the cosmos from the law of sin and death was to become us and let us kill him (with us in Him). All the old bonds and contracts and oaths and covenants and promises were made null and void because mankind died to all of those. All the hurts and hang-ups associated with those old agreements and attachments and paradigms were left in the grave. We were raised again in Him still joined to him receiving our new life from Him. We now live with his blood in our veins as a new kind of creature never seen before. God became mankind so he could set everything right again but this time with an original-intent-twist. We were always meant to be joined to Him and now we were.
As a seed in Jesus from before the foundations of the Earth we were being nurtured and cared for in our resting place in Him. Interesting that Adam was formed of the dirt and given life. Then he (mankind) died after eating the wrong fruit. Our original created intent and real identity was still in Jesus. In some way we were like a seed in bad dirt waiting to sprout in good dirt. When God became mankind, He became "perfect dirt." He became the only kind of dirt that was capable of sustaining life in this seed He planted before the foundations of the Earth. His "dirt" was never corrupted by cursed stuff. He was perfect love. He was perfect goodness. He was tempted by the deceiver and won where we lost. He came out of Egypt, through the wilderness and through the Jordan without murdering and complaining. He rested perfectly in the promised land, the Kingdom of Heaven and always trusted His father. Carrying all our seeds in Himself, He brought us to the cross as only a God-man could. He was our success when we had failed. He was our rest when we had strived. He was our compliance when we were rebellion. Now on the cross he reconciles us all. We are cultivated and germinated in Him, joined to him, getting our nutrients from Him. We are cleaned and incorruptible. We are good dirt again. The old dirt has been replaced with a new kind.
OK, maybe that is a stretch but how do you explain a spirit truth in a flesh language? This is why He is so awesome and so personal. He will give each of us an understanding that makes sense to each of us. We are joined to Him (I think I said that a few times).
The very way we give glory to God is by enjoying Him. We enjoy our union with Him. We are joined to joy Himself. Here is a simple equation. Good God + you = joy.

Oxford's John Lennox on Stephen Hawking's "Grand Design"
As the days go by and Stephen Hawking's death this week recedes further into history, we're all going to feel freer to objectively weigh his thought and writing. The time for eulogies is now, but that time will pass. One of the most fascinating statements Hawking ever made was in his book The Grand Design where he said that, "Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing." Oxford mathematician John Lennox has offered some sharp remarks on that.
Jay Richards, co-author of The Privileged Planet, recalls in a classic ID the Future episode with Lennox the comment of one reporter who had taken some time to meditate on Hawking's pronouncement. This reporter, for the Los Angeles Times, felt he must simply bow to the great scientist and accept his word on it: "Well, this is something that must be believed, but not understood." Such is the prestige of science: Many of us feel that because a scientist said it, it's scientific and however seemingly incoherent, must be true.
Lennox is a strong and highly charming proponent of the view that, between science and God, there is no necessary choice to be made. And he authored his own book, God and Stephen Hawking: Whose Design Is It Anyway?, in response to Hawking. Dr. Lennox and Dr. Richards point out that atheist claims like those of Dr. Hawking — the much insisted upon God-versus-science dichotomy — are helped out by a false history spun by many astronomy and other science textbooks. The best inoculation against this, they note, may be to introduce the public to the true history of science, and of how great scientists have thought about God.
It's an excellent conversation. Listen to the podcast or download it here.

Guilt stops health. That is just a reality. When we have either false or real guilt, we block the hand of God from moving fully in out lives and throughout the balance of our mind, will, and emotions. That is fact not fiction. Deal with it. Yes, deal with guilt.
A friend used to tell me how he lived with shameless guilt. To me that is an enigma. Maybe he had a formula for living that allowed him to remain guilty and be unashamed of his status. Sounds a little sociopathic to me.
Guilt for mistakes and missed connections in living is a healing agent. Just like pain, guilt can lead us to full and balanced health in our physical bodies, mind, will, emotions, spirit, and relationships. These are all interconnected. You must deal will all for full balanced healing. Guilt lives in the soul and affects all other areas.
Is guilt an emotion? No, guilt is a condition and a perception. Guilt occurs when we offend someone. That someone can be your spouse or best friend. That someone can be God. That someone can be yourself. If you are eating what you know is bad for you physically, you are guilty of a sin against the temple of your body. Don't discount or laugh about it. Remove the guilt by removing the behavior.
Does guilt elicit emotion? Exactly and always. Anyone that is emotionless toward guilt has developed a spurious conscience seared to lack of feeling. I would argue the absence of emotion is an emotion. That seeming absence is apathy and most often rooted in anger and rejection. All of that is intensely emotional, just not as visibly expressed. In fact, that person will find themselves doing horrid acts against themselves and others that have no business expressed in living.
Get angry at your guilt. It can block full freedom and liberty of mind and emotion and body. Get resolute to rid yourself of the reason for the guilt. Let it heal through addressing the issue and resolving it.
Who is the primary person offended in our mistakes? Of course, God is the primary one offended. In Psalm 51 David cries out that it is God and God alone against whom he has sinned. David committed adultery with a faithful friend's wife. Then he killed the friend. He made other friends be the hand of murder. He sinned against the nation through evil leadership. He sinned against himself through adultery. He sinned against the woman, the husband, the family, his armies, and many others. Yet, he focused all of his prayer to his sin against God. David knew all that he did was wrong.
Are we bound to guilt for our mistakes forever? NO.. NO.. NO.. Later in life David wrote that he had never sinned. He was not denying reality. He was declaring his present condition. He was guiltless before God and man. His sins were forgiven and forgotten and no longer in the remembrance of God. Sure, they are still written for us to read. But in the accounting of David's life before God, they never existed. This was even before the shedding of the blood of Chirst. David looked to the mercy of God and the promise of redemption and declared himself free of guilt before God.
Peter had been abused as a child in his father's congregation. The youth minister was the offender. At a campout, Peter was raped by the youth minister. Horrified, he took the guilt of the incident on himself. It was not his to bear. Yet, he took it on himself. Over time, he had become increasingly disturbed and distraught. As a 50 year old adult he showed up on my doorstep. He was unable to hold a job, live in a building, or have simple loving relationships with other humans. But he came to me looking for the healing grace of God.
There were many sessions of listening and learning about Peter and his life. He had lived from that point with a pain the resulted in many mistakes and disconnects. Sorting through all of that took time before we found the root of bitterness and source of guilt that misguided his actions and thoughts.
Once we found that event and removed the undue guilt, we could focus on the due guilt. Last time I saw Peter he was living a simple and loving existence with his wife and dog. They both had jobs and the tormenting life he had been living was over. There were smiles again. He stood straight again. He had friends again. That is health.
Get good friends. Listen to them. Stay in the counsel of the scripture. You can avoid a lot of mistakes if you concentrate on right directions.
Be aware of areas into which you fall easily. Don't buy in to, "Well that is just the way I am." as an excuse for sinful behavior. Change. Change. Seek out the voice of God to correct ill conceived habits and premises and presumptions that rule your life. These result in mistakes and offenses and guilt.
Ask forgiveness. Put away your silly pride. Get real. Let God forgive you.
Be bluntly honest with yourself and with God. Open up and admit your errors. Let guilt show you where you need to admit failures and where you need to apply correction.
Pray: Father, this is the life that we are meant to live in Christ. You want us free of guilt. That comes through right relationship with You and with others. We come to You, Father. Forgive us our sins, mistakes, and offenses to You and others. Bring us to the place of mercy not justice. Justice means we must be punished. But mercy means we can stay alive and alert in You and be stronger for our mistakes not denigrated and cast down or removed from fellowship with You. In our greatest guilt we need to find ourselves at Your feet seeking love and grace and mercy. Take us to Your side, Father, when we feel the least accepted. You are our loving and comforting God.

Rihanna Praises Writer For Winging 'Vogue' Interview, Said "That's Gangster"
Although Journalism Twitter and other detractors slammed the writer for the lack of preparation, Ri-Ri was impressed.
Written By D.L. Chandler

Rihanna granted Vouge a cover story interview and it was revealed in the piece that the writer on duty didn't prepare questions ahead of the chat. While the confessional moment drew groans of regret from journalism pros and hopefuls, the Barbadian superstar thought the move was "gangster" in her words.
Last Friday at the Guggenheim in New York, outlet WMD caught Rihanna on the red carpet of an event to celebrate the release of her "visual biography" self-titled coffee-table book. The reporter for Vogue stated that she was rushed for time and couldn't prep questions for the fashion maven and singer, which angered the masses who thought this was a squandered opportunity.
However, Rihanna told WMD, "No, no, no, no. That's gangster. For you to get a call the day before being like, 'Hey, Rihanna's in L.A., you wanna do this?' And show up on the dime and write an incredible article that I'm really proud of and enjoyed reading? She's badass for that."
Just in case folks thought Rihanna would side with the super-serious journalists who'd never commit such an act, she once again let it be known she had respect for how the piece turned out.
"If you don't have to prepare, girl, you're gangster," Rihanna said in conclusion.

The Centre joined millions of people and organisations worldwide in "going dark" on 25 March from 8:30pm to 9:30pm, in support of World Wildlife Fund's Earth Hour.
During the event, the venue not only turned off all non-essential lights but held a variety of interactive activities to further educate team members and their families on nature, the environment and the Earth Hour initiative. Pre-event, the Centre also created a 'green quiz' which was circulated among team members with the top four submissions winning a prize.
Pryor continued that the Centre was also pleased to join more than 68 AEG Facilities-affiliated stadiums, arenas, theatres, clubs and convention centres in 36 cities, seven countries and four continents to celebrate their commitment to the environment under the AEG 1EARTH programme's mission to reduce the organisation's environmental impact and drive business value through sustainability.


SAN DIEGO -- Sempra Energy is reminding people of the dangers of approaching electrical towers after a teenager was killed in Chula Vista Sunday. The 16-year-old boy died after he climbed a 100 foot-high tower and was electrocuted.
A Sempra Energy spokesman said the boy apparently came in contact with 138,000 volts of electricity.
Police had received a report of a boy climbing the tower, but by the time officers arrived, he had been killed.
SYRACUSE — An 8-year-old West Chazy girl who was electrocuted Saturday is coming home today.
Keatra LaPier of Dunn Road is "doing wonderfully," said her mother, Alyssa LaPier.
She said Keatra and two cousins were having a "quiet picnic" on top of the family's fifth-wheel camper, eating crackers and talking, when Alyssa and her sister-in-law, Julie LaPier, told them to get down.
The kids threw down their blankets and were walking off the camper when Keatra was suddenly blown to the ground.
Everyone thought, at first, that Keatra had fallen off the camper. It wasn't until Alyssa's cousin, Lori Woodley, saw the burns on Keatra's feet and the girl's hair on a power line hanging over the camper that they realized she had been electrocuted.
Alyssa said New York State Electric & Gas has told them that 7,200 volts traveled through that power line.
"It's a miracle she's here," Alyssa said.
She said that when she reached Keatra she thought her little girl was going to die. "I stuck my finger in her mouth (to check her breathing), and she bit me .... and then she just went limp."
Alyssa couldn't cope with what was happening and says she doesn't know what she would have done if Woodley, who is a nurse, hadn't been there.
"She stayed with her through the whole time," Alyssa said.
Woodley said Keatra fought hard to live. "She had to struggle to even start breathing. It was terrible. But she was so strong and so tough."
Keatra's father, Kent LaPier, said the staff at CVPH Medical Center's Emergency Department was just great.
On Wednesday, Keatra was sore but definitely acting like her regular self, Alyssa said.
The girl has a chipped vertebra, and she may have fractured ribs. Keatra has numerous doctor visits in her future, and long-term effects are possible, doctors have told the family.
"It's amazing she has recovered so quickly," Alyssa said.
Woodley talked with Keatra on the phone and said the girl doesn't remember anything up until the time she was being put in the ambulance.
"Thank God," Woodley said. "Wouldn't it be awful if she could?"

"(He was) high-energy, enthusiastic, always (with) a smile on his face, (and) real helpful," Bregar said. "His informal job in the school -- he would take the flag down each day to help the custodians doing that."
Tom's school in Westlake lowered that flag to half-staff Wednesday, because when the students return from spring break Monday, one of the desks will be empty.
Tom died Tuesday when he jumped into a pool at the Presidente Intercontinental Hotel in San Jose de Cabo, Mexico.
Police said that he was electrocuted.
Authorities believe the shock originated from a faulty lighting fixture on the side of the pool. Witnesses told authorities that Tom, who was staying with his sister, father, and mother, dove into the pool shortly after 9 a.m. and immediately went into convulsions.
The boy was rushed to a nearby clinic, where he later died.
Dave Beroisa of Leisuretime Warehouse said that such electrocutions almost never happen in the United States, because the law requires outdoor electrical appliances to wire up to a ground fault circuit interrupter.
"That basically protects you and your family in case something happens where something falls into the pool and electricity is involved," Beroisa said. "It would shut off, no matter what it is."
It's just like the safety plug next to your sink -- you can install the GFCI at the source of your electricity. Or, you can save some money and install it at the plug where you plug in the pool or hot tub. Either way, if something goes wrong, the device will stop the current.
Bay Village Police Chief David Wright was Tom's baseball coach.
"Tommy was always there," he said.
He called him the "Tomenator," because Wright said that he was "one tough, tenacious kid."
Wright said that he is going to miss him.
"I just (told) my children, you know, (that) tomorrow is not promised, so whatever you do and when you say something to somebody, (think of) it in terms of 'If this is the last thing I ever said, is that what I want them to remember?'" he said.
The company that operates the Intercontinental Hotel in Mexico issued a statement Wednesday saying, "The hotel is deeply saddened by the tragic event, and our hearts and prayers go out to the family of the young boy."
The accident caused a brief power outage that affected about 6,000 customers in the South Bay area.
SYRACUSE ? An 8-year-old West Chazy girl who was electrocuted Saturday is coming home today."
"Everyone thought, at first, that Keatra had fallen off the camper. It wasn?t until Alyssa?s cousin, Lori Woodley, saw the burns on Keatra?s feet and the girl?s hair on a power line hanging over the camper that they realized she had been electrocuted."
Electrocute (verb)- To kill or excecute by the of Electric Current.
I agree. This is one of those words that is misused frequently.
My sources show electrocute as being of 19th century American origin as a contraction of the phrase "electro-execute."
The poor girl in this report suffered severe electric shock. Fortunately, she was NOT electrocuted.
What is it called when some one is "electrocuted" but does not die?

Q: SSL not working in CherryPy I've seemingly done everything according to docs but SSL just does not work.
Here's my CherryPy settings.conf:
[global]
request.show_tracebacks = False
server.socket_port = 443
server.thread_pool = 10
log.screen = True
log.error_file = '/root/website/Web.log'
log.access_file = '/root/website/Access.log'
cherrypy.server.ssl_module = 'pyopenssl'
cherrypy.server.ssl_certificate = "/etc/ssl/website/AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt"
cherrypy.server.ssl_private_key = "/etc/ssl/website/btcontract_com.key"
cherrypy.server.ssl_certificate_chain = "/etc/ssl/website/chain.crt"

If I try to load site.com:443 in browser it works without using a certificate.
If I try https://site.com the browser says there's an SSL connect error.
CherryPy error and connection logs contain nothing at all as if it does not even getting these https requests. I'm not sure if my python has built in SSL support so I did installed pyOpenSSL. What's going on and how can I fix this?

A: There was a change in version 3.2.5 that broke SSL support. This hasn't been fixed yet (as of version 3.6.0), but there is a patch suggested in issue 1298 if you need to use one of these versions.

A: Problem solved by installing a lower version on CherryPy (namely 3.2.3). Apparently something is wrong with SSL in 3.6.0

Every season, I think to myself: this is my favorite season. But it really always comes back to one: fall. There's just something about the leaves and the crisp air and fall gatherings that remind me of the joy of fall and why it's truly my absolute favorite. My kids and husband love fall, too, so of course I had to participate in a poetry linkup to consider why and how I love fall so much.
Be sure when you finish my poem below that you go and visit my other bloggy friends!
Leaf piles all raked and perfect for jumping.
Did you see the pattern? What's your favorite part of fall?
YES, I saw the pattern. . . well, when you suggested I look for it. Wonderful representation of the season!
Oh, sooo clever! And you caught the season perfectly!


On an upcoming Sunday, millions of Americans will gather around their televisions and prepare for one of the year's most exciting entertainment events: Super Bowl advertising.
Oh, right — the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams will play some football, too.
We're only half kidding. For decades, Super Bowl commercials have been a phenomenon. And in the internet era, that phenomenon has grown exponentially. In 2018, the Super Bowl generated some 4.2 million conversations across Twitter and other social media platforms, according to brandwatch — and many of those mentions were about commercials by T-Mobile, Mountain Dew, and other brands. "Twitter sees close to a 20% lift in unique visitors during the Super Bowl," Twitter has confirmed.
These days, Super Bowl commercials can create memes, win prestigious awards, and, of course, retire to millions of more viewers on YouTube.
Twitter has joined the ado with #BrandBowl, a competition among advertisers to see whose segment can garner the most mentions. It's "Twitter's official competition and service to honor the best-in-class campaigns as played out on Twitter," according to the company's director of brand strategy. In 2018, #BrandBowl winners included PepsiCo, the trailer for "Jurassic World," and Ally Bank, among others.
Oreo's "Dunk in the Dark" | Superbowl 2013 | Oreo made a mark not with a lengthy, polished commercial, but with a spur-of-the-moment tweet. When the power went out at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Oreo tweeted some brief copy and a no-frills graphic that read: "Power out? No problem. You can still dunk in the dark." The result was astounding: tens of thousands of engagements, fawning press coverage, and, later, plenty of awards. "How Oreo Won the Marketing Super Bowl With a Timely Blackout Ad on Twitter," WIRED wrote in a headline.
Oreo's simple, clever reaction is still garnering press years later: "The definitive oral history of the Oreo 'You can still dunk in the dark' Super Bowl tweet," is the headline of a recent DigiDay story.
Amazon's "Alexa Loses Her Voice" | Superbowl 2018 | If Oreo's Super Bowl win was scrappy, Amazon's was just the opposite. The retail giant released a clever, star-studded ad titled "Alexa Loses Her Voice," which featured celebrities like Gordon Ramsey, Anthony Hopkins, Amazon's own Jeff Bezos, and others. The ad nabbed several Clio Awards, accolades across social media, and headlines like "The votes are in: Alexa loses her voice but Amazon wins" in USA Today. "Amazon's star-studded commercial… garnered more views on YouTube on Super Bowl Sunday than any other spot during the big game," the New York Post reported.
