Solar panels offset electricity costs in SA1 month, 1 week ago
Solar panels offset electricity costs in SA

The installation of solar panels has helped SA orchardist reduce exposure to rising power costs
Rising costs associated with electricity consumption at Omega Orchards, Renmark in South Australia prompted director Drew Martin to install an extensive bank of solar panels after he had done an exhaustive analysis of the cost benefit.
Mr Martin has operated the farming business since 2006, following a period as an agronomist in most of the major irrigation areas of Australia and extensive experience in Idaho and California.
He is now in control of an operation where 180 hectares Almonds are drip irrigated alongside 1200ha of dryland wheat, and five full time staff are employed.
"We produce the worlds best yields and quality kernel," Mr Martin said when addressing the National Renewables in Agriculture Conference and Expo in Wagga Wagga.
But it was his experience with the installation of solar panels to reduce dependency on grid power and the associated exposure to his business that the audience was more interested in.
"Our story started with a power security issue which was putting our business a risk," he said.
"At the time we were not making money due to the ongoing drought and the downturn in the commodity cycle but we decided to mitigate the power risk to save business margin long term."
Mr Martin detailed the extent to which he invested in solar electricity generation infrastructure to avoid the possibility of future power outages from the grid.
To further ensure the security of power, Mr Martin has installed batteries along with a diesel generator and he also views the onfarm production of hydrogen as a distinct probability.
'We already had in place a system which involve a solar hybrid battery system for the irrigation controller installed in 2012, so I had some experience with the potential of solar panels," he said.
"It proved very useful overcoming the many power flicks we were getting but not really coping with any outages so the next step was to install a 550kva generator setup."
With that experience of the worth and reliability of renewable energy, Mr Martin said he was fully prompted to explore further opportunities in 2017 when power prices spiked.
The purchase of a 212kw solar system was integrated and when commissioned completed the alternative power management system.
"It was in 2017 with high power prices and a healthy bank balance which made generation behind the meter very viable," he said.
"We also employed a consultant to get the most out of the system, and they helped with power shedding events, price demand, and effective negotiation with SAPN and retailers."
For Mr Martin, the decision to incorporate a source of renewable energy was a timely judgement in reducing the cost of power to his business.
"It was not critical to go renewable, just good financial sense if you have access to the capital required and it fits with your existing operation," he said.
"We are producing on average 1.2 megawatts per day which is offsetting 50 to 100 percent of our day time usage."
In concluding his address, Mr Martin cautioned his audience to be fully aware of what they want to do and be prepared to take advice to avoid the pitfalls.
"Do your own research but take note of what is going on around you," he said.
"But critically, be decisive and buy the best hardware."

Teenager Świątek makes history for Poland with stunning French Open title
Teenage sensation Iga Świątek made history in Paris by becoming the first Polish player to win a Grand Slam singles title, defeating Sofia Kenin in the women's final.
The talented 19-year-old failed to lose more than four games in any set in the tournament and ruthlessly dispatched Kenin of the United States, winning 6-4, 6-1.
Kenin, the Australian Open champion, had no answers to the teenager, who dominated for much of the match to secure a memorable victory on the showpiece Court Philippe Chatrier.
Świątek is also the sixth unseeded player in the open era to win a Grand Slam, following in the footsteps of Sloane Stephens, Jeļena Ostapenko, Kim Clijsters, Serena Williams and Chris O'Neil.
The Pole had lost just 23 games and had not dropped a set heading into the final and quickly converted her first break point, with Kenin sending a backhand long.
Świątek dominated the opening exchanges and burst into a 3-0 lead before Kenin started to find her feet and put pressure on her opponent.
After winning the fourth game, Kenin broke back following a Świątek doubled fault and then drew level at 3-3 as the momentum began to turn in the American's favour.
Świątek came under pressure again in the seventh game but managed to hold firm to regain the lead before breaking Kenin in the next.

A superb cross-court forehand winner saw Kenin stave off one break point before an unreturnable serve saved another.
But, at the third time of asking, Świątek broke Kenin's resistance as the American netted a forehand to move 5-3 in front.
Świątek then had a set point but slapped a backhand into the net before Kenin cut the deficit to 5-4.
The teenager managed to hold her nerve and seized her next opportunity to take the set as Kenin pulled a backhand wide.
Kenin responded in the second set by breaking in the opening gamem but Świątek broke back immediately with a fine backhand winner down the line and did not look back.
After five successive breaks of serve, Świątek held to lead 2-1 and remain on course for her first major title.
Kenin then went off for a medical timeout as she struggled with a thigh issue - and Świątek showed no mercy when her opponent returned to court.
Świątek broke in the fourth game as Kenin pushed a backhand wide before forging 5-1 ahead as she moved closer to the title.
The Polish teenager then converted her first Championship point with a sublime cross-court forehand winner.
Świątek is the first woman since Justine Henin in 2007 to win at Roland Garros without dropping a set, and the first Grand Slam winner born in 2001.
Kenin, 21, had been attempting to become the first winner of two women's singles Grand Slam titles in the same calendar year since 2016.

The Science of Quality
Home » The Science of Quality
The long processing system required to obtain a perfect cup of espresso has led Hausbrandt to continually supervise each and every production step.
This series of countless steps, examinations, verification and tests is indispensable for ensuring that the customer receives a perfect product that fully expresses its personality in the cup.
For more than one hundred years, Hausbrandt has combined tradition and experience with knowledge and technological innovation to create a well-established, authentic "culture of good coffee".
The perfect combinations of single origin beans and the different amounts of Arabica and Robusta varieties create perfect blends that offer full flavour, fragrant aroma and rounded body ‒ the essential elements for an exceptional coffee. The secret of the Hausbrandt Trieste 1892 blends undoubtedly lies in their composition. One example is the Gourmet Columbus blend, whose recipe holds the secret to an exquisite combination of bitter cocoa and liquorice root nuances. Its harmonious, full and sophisticated flavour results from careful selection of the finest quality Colombian Arabica.
Perfect aging
Although selecting the best raw materials is important, it is not enough to guarantee the highest quality product. Roasting is the crucial moment when the coffee first undergoes a true transformation.
Hausbrandt uses a process known as slow roasting, in which a temperature of 210° C is reached. The roasting lasts for 15 to 16 minutes, the amount of time needed to obtain coffee that has a uniform colour and that has all of its aroma and organoleptic properties intact. During this process, the heat curve is continuously monitored with thermal probes. At the end of the roasting process, the beans are immediately cooled to halt the natural process of combustion.
Once roasted, the coffee needs to be aged to fully develop its characteristics. After a few days of aging, the coffee is vacuum-packed in canisters or bags that perfectly preserve the product.
Espresso preparation
There are four essential elements for making good coffee. Hausbrandt's commitment to producing the perfect coffee does not end with providing a high-quality blend: aware of the important work and professionalism of the barman, the company offers consulting and training so that every step of the espresso's preparation is the result of product knowledge and expertise. The machines used for this preparation must always be efficient and clean.
Espresso machines have settings that must be respected and monitored. The pressure of the pump unit must be between 8.5 and 9 atmospheres. The pressure of the water in the boiler must also be checked; it should be 1 atmosphere to ensure that the water emerges from the shower heads at a temperature of approximately 90°. Proper maintenance of the machine, including correct cleaning of the interior and exterior (shower heads, gaskets, filter), is essential. Like a fine instrument, the machine must be "tuned" in order to work well, and must therefore be clean and in proper working condition to produce a good espresso.
This machine breaks apart the roasted beans. The beans are fragmented and ground, making enough to obtain up to 15,000 cups of coffee. A powder that is fragrant, aromatic, and fine. Such small, yet perfect, particles. The water passes among the particles, taking with it the substances required to make an espresso. In the 25 to 30 seconds needed to extract the coffee, those small grains are deprived of their treasure ‒ the fruity, spicy aroma, the sweet, acidulous taste. All this in a simple cup. Even the quantity of ground coffee used must be perfectly measured: 7 grams of coffee, no more, no less.
For an orchestra to play masterfully, it needs a talented conductor; as with music, making coffee requires an expert who can guide all the musicians. An expert selects the proper blends, interpreting and transforming them into the perfect espresso. This work may go unnoticed by the customer, until it is revealed when they taste the perfection of the cup of espresso.
Careful attention to the product and maintaining the equipment are crucial. These are both essential for serving a perfect espresso and become lasting habits when one notes the expression of pleasure that appears on the face of a customer who has just had an excellent cup of espresso.
Like a mathematical formula, those 7 grams of coffee, extracted for 25 to 30 seconds, at a constant temperature of 90° and a pressure of 9 atmospheres, will produce 25 to 30 ml of espresso: sweet, full-bodied, aromatic, rich. It requires expertise, care and an innate aptitude for perfection… But in the end, there is perfection, excellence and passion in every single cup of coffee.

Q: Can't load from Oracle when Id is Guid in NHibernate We're saving an object to NHibernate where the Id is typed Guid.  Based on other things we've found we have this as a type char(36).

*

*We create an object and save it via NHibernate.  This works fine and we see 64599239BB0C1C48B44C36D9F9267830 in the column.

*When we then try to load using a guid we don't get any results and NHibernate Profiler shows that the WHERE clause is looking for 0x64599239BB0C1C48B44C36D9F9267830  which isn't matching.

Obviously we're doing something wrong.. so any ideas what?

A: The data type on the database should be RAW, and of 16 length. This is what trying to recreate the database using NHibernate produces.

Music Review: Ken Selcer Don't Forget About Me
Ken Selcer's Don't Forget About Me resonates with the freshness of a summer breeze, the sparkle of a cold spring well, and the deepening hues of tomorrow's perfect sunset. Like the beauties of nature, its sounds will gently beckon the listener back again and again.
The singer, songwriter, and guitarist plays folk, rock, country, and blues to create his own unique amalgam of roots music on this 15 track album. Selcer's third CD, Don't Forget About Me spotlights 13 original compositions, two of which are reprised with differing arrangements.
Selcer kicks off the disc with the title "Don't Forget About Me," a country-rock number flowing with the musical spirit of Dylan or The Grateful Dead. Recalling the Nashville side of the folk-rock genre, "Goin' Home Now" hums with the back-porch goodtime attitude of The Lovin' Spoonful. Selcer sharpens the electric guitar riffs on such numbers as "With You" and "Even To A Shining Star," while "Save Yourself" unveils vocal harmonies and Selcer's speedy-fingered acoustic guitar licks that would make early Poco proud.
The album's centerpieces are "Colors" and "I Would Be With You," each delivered in two separate versions. A classic singer-songwriter ballad, "Colors" features Selcer's expressive singing and splendid guitar picking. One recording weaves its beautiful acoustic textures; the other is animated by its bass/guitar/drums interplay. Selcer unexpectedly closes his CD with an accordion and voice "I Would Be With You" demo, emphasizing the song's exceptional songwriting craft and touching melody. The album's electric version conjures memories of George Harrison collaborating with Badfinger on some haunting Beatlesque notion. Along with his standout composing, arranging, and producing, Selcer's brilliant guitar playing finds special inspiration in Harrison's singular style on "I Would Be With You."
Like the traditional folk troubadours, Selcer sings and plays "In An Instant," "Fallen Down," and "Massachusetts Morning," whose introspective sentiments connect to its geographical title. Selcer complements his obvious musical gifts with reflective lyrics; he can also be whimsical, as in the wordplay to the rootsy "Outstanding": "I'm outstanding in the rain."
Tastefully accompanied by bassist Andy Solberg, drummer Mike Migliozzi, keyboardist Chris Billias, along with mandolinist Jimmy Ryan and harp player Hatrack Gallagher, Kenny Selcer has put together an album of memorable tunes and sensational picking. (www.kenselcer.com)

A major survey of French private-sector business activity indicated that output shrank in December for the first time in two and a half years, underscoring the economic impact of the "yellow vest" protests that have swept the country.
The influential Flash France Composite Output Index, compiled by research group IHS Markit, showed a sharp decline to 49.3 in December from 54.2 in November, adding to the problems of President Emmanuel Macron.
Any figure below 50 indicates a contraction in activity.
"Prior to the December flash results, survey data suggested that the French economy was set to record a fairly reasonable quarterly expansion in Q4 (the fourth quarter," Eliot Kerr, an economist at IHS Markit, commented.
The "yellow vest" demonstrations began on November 17 in opposition to hikes in fuel taxes, but have since snowballed into broad protests against Macron's pro-business agenda and his style of governing.
Six people have died since the movement began and more than 1,400 injured in the often violent demonstrations by low-income people from small-town and rural France.
Protesters have blocked roads, roundabouts and motorways as well as shopping centres, while fears of demonstrations in many cities have caused shops and restaurants to close.
The weak survey results, if confirmed by other economic data, would compound the budgetary problems faced by Macron's centrist government, which has announced a series of costly concessions to the "yellow vests".
Tax rises on fuel have been cancelled, the minimum wage has been hiked and tax relief has been offered to pensioners in measures estimated to cost around 15 billion euros ($17 billion).
The package is set to be mostly financed by government borrowing, which risks pushing France's public sector budget deficit beyond an upper limit of 3.0 percent of GDP set under EU rules.

Chennai, August 01, 2011 - MARG Karaikal Port achieved yet another milestone on 31st of July, 2011 by adding container handling services to its fast growing cargo-mix. The landmark was achieved when the container vessel 'M V Ruhunupura', called at the port to discharge and load containers for the very first time. The container carried multiple cargo across a diverse customer base.
The event marked start of regular container feeder services to MARG Karaikal Port, thereby linking the port to key overseas import and export destinations of the world through the transhipment hub of Colombo besides offering connectivity to domestic destinations such as Vizag to facilitate and promote coastal movement of cargo within the country.
Commenting on the launch of container services at MARG Karaikal Port, GRK Reddy, Chairman and Managing Director, MARG Ltd, says "The launch of container handling services at MARG Karaikal Port will provide local industries with a cost effective and time efficient alternate. Central Tamil Nadu region is home to key foreign trade industries such as garments, textiles, cement, engineering goods and machinery, paper, granites, steel scrap and seafood exports which would derive significant benefits by opting for MARG Karaikal Port to ship their containers. The Port's single-window model with customer centric operations, simplified operating procedures and quick response time will avoid delays and high costs currently associated with the container trade at present".
The port's excellent road and rail links connect it to important trade and industry hubs in the hinterland areas and provide multiple transportation options for containers moving in and out of the port. With a view to providing additional value to prospective container cargo customers, MARG Karaikal Port has already inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Container Corporation of India (CONCOR) to provide dedicated regular container train services linking the port with CONCOR ICDs in locations such as Coimbatore, Tirupur and Bangalore (Whitefield). This move is expected to benefit importers and exporters situated close to these hubs to effectively utilize the advantages offered by MARG Karaikal Port for their container cargo needs.
Commenting on this new development, M.L.N. Acharyulu, Executive Director- Marine Infrastructure at MARG, said "MARG Karaikal port is fast emerging as the new Gateway to Central Tamil Nadu since its launch in 2009. With MARG Karaikal port developing state-of-the-art container handling port operations in close proximity to the region's industrial facilities, the local trade can look forward to reductions in logistics time, inland haulage costs and truck detention period."
Designed from the outset to be a modern, deepwater multi-commodity port with the latest cargo handling equipments and processes, the port's modern infrastructure with deeper draft capable of handling even Panamax vessels offers container lines an attractive port of call on the South East Coast of India, close to a region with a rich industrial base and high involvement in international trade. The port boasts of a full suite of capable equipment for handling containers including 3 Liebherr Mobile Harbour Cranes, Reach Stackers and other associated equipment and the port has also invested in dedicated infrastructure for container handling including sufficient open storage areas and warehouse spaces.
MARG Karaikal Port's operational processes and practices are on par with the best in the industry and the port has managed to bag ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certifications in a record time, demonstrating the maturity and quality of operational processes followed at the port. The suitability and capability of MARG Karaikal Port's physical infrastructure and operational practices for container handling have been proven with the port's cranes achieving a handling rate of over 25 moves per hour with the very first container vessel itself.
Listed by Dun & Bradstreet among "India's Top 500 Companies 2010", MARG Group has projects worth more than Rs. 5000 crores under execution, global partners in the Infra space and offices spread across India, Singapore and China. MARG's businesses are organized under 4 distinct business verticals – Marine Infrastructure & Services, Urban & Industrial Infrastructure, EPC and Real Estate.
With over two decades of reassuring presence and the credit of pioneering the development of economic growth centers, MARG's portfolio spans across the entire infrastructure value chain - urban and industrial infrastructure, urban residential clusters, marine infrastructure & services, malls and EPC division. The Group is expanding its sectoral presence with airport projects in Bellary and Bijapur and Multi-level car park projects.
MARG Karaikal Port is a premier, hi-tech, all weather port on the South East coast of India. It is the only all weather, deep water, multi-commodity port between Chennai port and Tuticorin port and is strategically located at the middle of this 680 km coastline. Awarded under BOT basis by the Government of Puducherry, Karaikal Port is in the process of completing 2nd phase of expansion leading to a 21 MMTPA capacity by end 2011. The port will have 5 berths including fully mechanized coal berths, depth upto 16.5 mtrs, liquid cargo handling capabilities and specialized warehouses for agro products. Capacity to handle large vessels and diverse cargo, single window clearance, E2E logistics, state-of-the-art equipment, competitive tariffs and an ideal location are hallmarks of the MARG Karaikal Port.


This Fingertip veil is made of soft tulle, it's 54" wide and made to your desired length. The veil is hand sewn to the comb for a secure fit. (Bride shown here is wearing 54"x 42" veil).
For fuller veil choose 72" width.
Love love this veil! I specifically wanted a cathedral partially laced veil and was glad she offered such style. I odered a blusher (fingertip length) to go along with it, and she did a great job! Blusher and veil attached to comb, so putting it on is relatively simple. She had it made & delivered pretty quickly too.
Can't beat the quality for the price. It was exactly what I was looking for and it looked beautiful at my wedding!
Absolutely beautiful veil and I can't wait to get my pictures back, but I can't say enough about the store owner. I was completely lost when it came to picking out a veil. I wasn't sure the length, details, or density I wanted. Shop owner dedicated SO MUCH time looking at pictures on Pinterest, looking at my dress, and listening to me to help find EXACTLY what I wanted. She is definitely more than happy to go above and beyond to make sure you get what you want, and will never once be pushy! I can't thank you enough!!!
Received my veil with lots of time before the wedding :) Great service and quality product!


Can you imagine that The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, the first film of a trilogy based on the novels by J.R.R. Tolkien, was released 15 years ago? #feelold. It seems like just yesterday we were first introduced to the idyllic Shire, watched the Hobbits flee from the dread Ringwraiths and our hearts leaped when the Fellowship was first formed.
I was blown away by the wonderful fantasy world of Middle Earth and for the next two Decembers I drank up the other installments, The Two Towers and The Return of the King, like pints of ale from The Green Dragon. And then we had a prequel movie trilogy based on the novel The Hobbit which was good but never attained the heights of the original films.
Peter Jackson did a marvelous job bringing Tolkien's world to life in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. But when he decided to stretch the short children's book The Hobbit into a trilogy he was biting off more than he should chew. In no other movie is this more apparent than in the first film The Unexpected Journey. From an interminable dinner scene to a video-game-like experience with the goblins to an anticlimactic climax the movie was dragged down by too much filler. Like butter scraped over too much bread this piece of story was stretched over two hours and 49 minutes.
Martin Freeman was charming though as the young Bilbo Baggins and it was great to have Ian McKellen back as Gandalf the Grey. Richard Armitage was also ool as dwarf leader Thorin Oakenshield and it was lovely seeing Gollum again, finding out how the trolls were turned to stone, watching the discovery of the blade Sting and returning to the wonders of Rivendell. But these nuggets could not make up for an underwhelming experience overall.
The end of the Hobbit trilogy was the final chance for Jackson and company to shoot their arrow and hit the target with a film worthy of the LOTR trilogy. But while An Unexpected Journey suffered from being too bloated The Battle of the Five Armies suffered from being too thin. The majority of the almost two-and-a-half hours was spent with fights and battle scenes, and much of the heart and humour the franchise is known for were lacking.
And while the one-on-one fights were interesting the large scale battles were hollow CGI-fests that made you wish you were watching the siege of Helm's Deep or the Battle of the Pelennor Fields. The movie did have a couple of touching moments and was generally entertaining but was still a disappointing final chapter.
The second entry of the Hobbit trilogy is by far the best of the lot. And I can sum this up in one word – Smaug! The greedy, vindictive and vile dragon was magnificently brought to life by the voice talents of Benedict Cumberbatch ('Sherlock', Doctor Strange) and an extremely skilled special effects team. Smaug was a scene stealer and the best movie dragon of all time. His scenes with Bilbo were enthralling and the final battle with the dwarfs a wild ride.
Outside of Smaug I enjoyed seeing Legolas again kick some Orc posterior and meeting Bard the Bowman and fierce elf fighter Tauriel, though her relationship with dwarf Kili seemed a tad forced. The film would have been better if it ended with Smaug's death though, rather than an ineffective cliffhanger.
For our number three on this list we go to the original trilogy and the first film in the franchise. Fellowship was simply magical and really set a golden standard for fantasy films. There are so many iconic lines and moments in the movie. "You shall not pass" and "One does not simply…" both inspired internet memes.
From the Shire escape and the battle with the Ringwraiths to the Grey Council in Rivendell to the thrilling battles in the Mines of Moria, it was mind-blowing how good this film was. And not enough can be said about the brilliant cast, costuming and effects.
The original trilogy certainly went out with a bang with this final entry. This is the very definition of epic fantasy. We had Frodo and Sam battling Gollum/Smeagol and the best giant spider ever! At Gondor we had the cowardly Denethor and Merry showing his bravery. Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli were sidelined a bit but still had some great scenes.
The Battle of Pelennor Fields was epic piled upon even more epic (am I saying epic too much? I really don't care) and remains one of the best large scale battles ever put on film. Théoden's speech still gets me inspired to this day! Sure the film ended about four times but it was all touching and heartwarming and, like director Peter Jackson, it was difficult for us to say goodbye. A thoroughly satisfying end to a beloved trilogy.
The Two Towers was neither a beginning nor an end but still managed to tell a strong story and deliver the best film in the entire franchise. All three parts of the film are fantasy perfection: Gollum is such an interesting, engaging and tragic character and I loved his strained relationship with Sam and Frodo; Merry and Pippin with the Ents was amusing; and Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli with the Rohirrim was 12 flavours of awesome sauce.
Bernard Hill killed it as King Théoden, McKellen was at his best as Gandalf the White and our trio of heroes were also at the top of their game. The Battle of Helm's Deep is exciting, touching, visceral and beautiful. Of all the films The Two Towers is the most complete experience and has the best action, humour and heart. And that is why it is number one on this list. For Frodo!

Dominica Electricity Services (DOMLEC) has said it is investigating a power outage on Wednesday September 6th, which left the majority of the island without electricity.
PRO of the company Adina Bellot-Valentine told state-owned DBS Radio that around 11:45 am the power plant at Fond Cole went off, leaving most of the island from Tibay, in the north down to the south without electricity.
She said the company realized the importance of having power and some restorations were quickly done with the west coast and some areas in Roseau back on the grid.
"It has quite a way to go and it is going to take some time to be able to restore power," Bellot-Valentine said.
She stated the company still has not identified the fault and that the process of restoration will take some time.
"So we are putting on little by little the communities that are out of power and so we really want to implore the patience of our customers," she said.
Bellot-Valentine noted that "it is not a good thing" to lose power, especially following the passage of Hurricane Irma but promised that the company is working to get things back in order.
"I can tell the customers that we are all at the Fond Cole plant and the investigations are continuing, the technicians are there working feverishly to find out what occurred and we are happy that we have started to do some restoration and that will continue throughout the afternoon so we can get everybody back on," she said.
This was most probably the effects of a solar storm. According to NASA one occurred yesterday with a strength of X9, nine times as powerful as that of 2006.
What else is new? Just the way of life on DA.
Two important necessities are electricity and water. It is expected if a hurricane/storm hits, be it the wings, loss of power and water will be experienced.
A few years ago Ontario had an ice storm. The majority of people in certain areas had no electricity and also water; some later for months. The wires were frozen and some trees fell on them which damaged them.
Imagine that in a big country/city. This occurred around 9:30 pm, on a Saturday evening, the week prior to Christmas. What a time, in winter and before Christmas for this to occur. It was like a punishment. The Church had no electricity for a few days. Since then it has a generator. Candles had to be lit. Christmas celebrations indoors for most people were nil. Some could not prepare a Christmas dinner. What a year and end of year it was. We survived!
I had just returned from the store. Imagine those who were stuck in the store, in traffic, etc., who had difficulty getting get home.
The roads/streets were icy and dangerous to drive and to walk on. Thank God I was indoors. Actually, that night I took a taxi to return for the street was already icy.
Those who were affected suffered a bit with no lights and water. I always ensure that my residence has some water; even worst after this ice storm. Since it was winter, some of us were freezing indoors for a few days. When the lights were restored we were elated. You know the saying, you never miss the water 'til the well run dry.
Some people had generators, if they continued to operate under that circumstance. Some people lit BBQ grills in their home. A few were asphyxiated due to the fumes. We were warned about that.
Imagine also not being able to boil water for a cup of coffee. Those who managed to go out went to MacDonald's and Tim Horton's near by. These had generators. I heard the line-ups were long in that cold and icy areas. This is when fast food outlets come in handy.
In summer of that year, the authorities decided to drill holes to place the wires underground. Since then, in this area, we have not had any power outage. Of course, we have not yet experienced at least one. The test will come if we experience at least a bad one.
I noticed in areas of the city where this was not done, there are constant power ages which affect thousands of people.
We reside in a time that hurricanes/storms are becoming more frequent and ferocious. I state this because DOMLEC experienced a power outage. This also occurs when it is raining heavily. The telephones do not operate properly.
DOMLEC could consider placing its wires underground. However, I realize this may be impossible for now anyway, due to Dominica's infrastructure. I also realize it would cost DOMLEC billions of dollars to do so throughout the island. If you ever consider this, commence in the main areas as Roseau and outlying areas and when funds permit in other areas.
I'm quite sure it's one of the colussal nasty-sounding diesel machines. That's a lot of wasted time that could have been better spent just simply maintaining hydro power plant that they neglected due to no requirement in the lifetime contract they were handed for a few dollars. Shame!
Thank you. Take your time to figure things out. I rather stay without lights for a few hours than for days. We know you are doing your best. Hope all works out well and it is not anything serious.
Thank God D/ca is a tropical island. These are times to remember those days. You can easily cook the food outside in a coal pot and boil some water. Remember when most houses did not have electricity throughout the island. Nationals used lamps. At least you still have clean water and in the tap and shower.
Then they did not have a radio,TV, computer and internet service, etc. People were kinder, friendlier and more respectful then. They lived as a loving community, helping each other when they were in need. These times help us to remember and revert to those days when we lived without technology.
Much to be grateful for. Thank God for small mercies which are indeed great mercies and also D/ca was spared from the force of Hurricane Irma.
Google The Three Days Darkness. When it happens (if in our lifetime) everyone will go back to the land. They will be happy to eat the local vegetables, fruits and drink the water of the local fruits; not imported ones.


Sintered Neodymium Iron Boron Magnets or "NdFeB" magnets offer the highest energy product of any material today and are available in a wide range of shapes, sizes and grades. NdFeB magnets can be found in a variety of applications including high performance motors, brushless DC motors, magnetic separation, magnetic resonance imaging, sensors and loudspeakers.
Magnetic properties will differ depending upon alignment direction during compaction and upon size and shape. Download individual spec sheets from the table below, or get the full neo catalog here for specific grades and their magnetic properties, including the trade-off in Br (and energy product) for HcJ (intrinsic coercivity, resistance to demagnetization).
Samarium-Cobalt magnets have the best Br temperature coefficient (-0,035%/°C) granting the absolute higher available induction above 150°C working temperature. Despite a higher cost than other magnetic materials, SmCo provides an outstanding combination of high energy, thermal stability and corrosion resistance. Protective coatings are generally not required except for particular applications.
The typical final shapes such as blocks, cylinders, rings and arcs are obtained by cutting and grinding processes of pressed standard blocks or unitary compression pre-moulded part. Extremely fine tolerances can be obtained although, because of its high brittleness, it has to be handled and assembled with care to avoid chips and cracks.
AlNiCo (Aluminium, Nickel, Cobalt and Iron alloy) is obtained by casting process, shaped in cheap phenolic resin sand moulds. It is the oldest and most stable magnetic material, with temperature coefficients of -0,03%/°C (Br) and -0,02%/°C (HcJ). It can operate in environments up to 500 °C with a very good resistance against corrosion, therefore coatings are seldom required. For multi-pole magnetizing patterns isotropic material is available. Higher energy anisotropy is obtained by external coils orientation during the thermal treatment.
Because Alnico magnets are coarse-grained, hard and brittle, conventional machining such as drilling is not possible, however, finished surfaces may be obtained by grinding.
A unique characteristic of AlNiCo is its very high residual induction vs. a very low coercivity, therefore in most applications it can be effectively used by magnetizing after assembly in the magnetic circuit, and it is specially recommended in applications where only a temporary demagnetization is required (magnetic chucks, lifters...). For small sized models, due to the typical porosity of the casting process, sintered versions (ALSINT) are available upon request.
Ferrite magnet or ceramic magnet is the cheapest magnetic material available with the lowest cost/energy ratio, also known as Ceramic Magnets, they are mainly Strontium based (SrFe2O3), manufactured with Strontium Carbonate additive to increase performances from the obsolete Barium based (BaFe2O3).
Their good coercive force results from high crystal anisotropy of Strontium iron oxide. However, isotropic parts can also be produced where a simple and easy multi-pole magnetization is required. The most common shapes are simple, such as blocks, cylinders, rings and arcs. Ferrite is not conductive and has high resistance against corrosion, acids, salts, lubricants.
Whether you need assistance with designing, engineering, or manufacturing your project, U-Polemag has the expertise to deliver high-quality, cost effective magnetic solutions built to your exact specifications. We have at our disposal various equipment necessary for the processing of magnets, or we can develop and custom build euipment in our special machine shop. Due to offer efficent and total solutions.

First off, not every student will take the PSAT in sophomore year. Some schools offer it, others don't. The junior year PSAT is the one that "counts" toward things like National Merit recognition, but the advice below still applies to 11th graders.
1. The PSAT is nearly meaningless in the college process beyond being a benchmark for preparation.
Colleges do not look at PSAT scores. Admissions officers understand that the PSAT is not the "real thing," so they're not concerned with your performance on this test.
The PSAT can be a good benchmark for you, in that it provides a starting score that may help you determine your potential score on future standardized tests. However, if you take the PSAT in fall of sophomore year and begin standardized test prep the following summer or even in junior fall, that benchmark is already old. You learn a significant amount of information in sophomore year that can affect your standardized testing potential.
2. You should not prepare for standardized testing (SAT/ACT) any earlier than you need to.
We don't promote early test prep for a few reasons. First, starting too early can mean you burn out out before the important tests in junior or senior year. Second, we have seen many students go through the test prep process, and starting before our recommended timeline (sophomore summer or junior fall) just isn't necessary. Finally, as mentioned above, sophomore year is a time when you're still learning content relevant to standardized testing, so starting early is not an effective use of your efforts. Instead, devote that time to something meaningful, like an extracurricular activity, or just give yourself a break and relax a little!
3. Significant prep for the PSAT can increase your anxiety, especially if you're already an anxious or competitive student.
Given that the test itself has low stakes, we want to help you avoid adding extra pressure or stress to your life by worrying about your test results. The ideal approach to the PSAT should be closer to the "I didn't study, so I don't expect to do super well" camp rather than the "I studied so hard and didn't score as well as I hoped, so my life is over" camp.
Is there anything I can/should do to prepare for the PSAT?
The week before the PSAT, spend 1-2 hours with a sample PSAT exam, looking at the format of the test and the types of questions that will be asked. That way, the exam is not a complete surprise on test day. BUT: if you think this preparation is going to cause you anxiety, let it go. Remember that it's not vital to your overall standardized testing success.
On test day, we always advise taking the exam seriously. Try to be well rested and in a good headspace. This may mean making a detailed schedule for test day and the night before.
When scores come back, they don't need to be a huge topic of discussion, especially if you're prone to anxiety. When standardized test preparation begins after sophomore year, the PSAT report might come in handy, but until then, it's not worth thinking about or worrying over. If any areas of your score report are of concern, drop us a line and we can review it together.
What about qualifying as a National Merit Scholar?
The PSAT also serves as the NMSQT, which stands for the National Merit Scholars Qualifying Test. As of this post, only junior-year PSAT scores will be considered for the National Merit Scholars competition, which recognizes a tiny percentage of students with the top PSAT scores and gives out a few scholarships to a tiny percentage of that group.
The National Merit Scholars competition does not carry much weight in the college process, and the scholarship amount is relatively small (i.e., it may not be worth the effort/the stiff competition you would face in order to earn one). This is why even in junior year we don't suggest investing a lot of time preparing for the PSAT: your time could better be spent elsewhere.
Do your PSAT prep recommendations change for juniors?
Yes and no. We recommend beginning your SAT or ACT preparation (choose just one exam) after sophomore year or at the beginning of junior year. If you're preparing for the SAT, you'll automatically be preparing for the PSAT as well. You should consider the October PSAT date of junior year a great time to gain practice with the test day experience. However, juniors should keep their focus on SAT prep, rather than studying specifically for the PSAT.
Students who have opted for the ACT instead of the SAT don't need to spend any extra time studying for the PSAT either, as it won't significantly affect your college process. Although the SAT and PSAT are more similar in structure than the ACT and PSAT, a good portion of your ACT preparation will still help you out on the PSAT. Despite the different format, students taking the ACT can still treat the PSAT as an opportunity to practice the test day experience.
In conclusion, sophomores don't need any additional preparation for the PSAT, and even juniors don't need specific PSAT prep; studying for the SAT or ACT will suffice. This is why we don't recommend study books, courses, or even tutoring specifically geared toward the PSAT. There are many elements of your high school experience that can meaningfully impact your college application process, but the PSAT simply isn't one of them. And that's good news for parents and students alike!

The Schreiber Times
Penina Remler, Assistant A&E Editor
Meet Mindy Kaling. Some of you may already know her as Kelly Kapoor from The Office or as a screen writer forSaturday Night Live, but Kaling's latest claim to fame comes from the success of her very own hit network show, The Mindy Project.
Having just completed its first season, the multi-talented actress and writer Mindy Kaling stars as Dr. Mindy Lahiri in a self-titled Fox sitcom. Set in a physician group practice in New York City, Kaling plays a young OBGYN doctor based off of many of her own personal, and often comedic life experiences. The show consistently positions Kaling in conflicting situations based off of realistic incidents, which can be serious yet funny at the same time.
Some of the humor from the show stems from the office hjinks viewers see on a weekly basis. Whether it's Morgan (Ike Barinholtz), the ex-con male nurse with a big heart, or the two holistic doctors, Danny Castellano (Chris Messina) and Jeremy Reed (Ed Weeks), in the same building where Mindy must compete with for patients, there is no shortage of hilarity in the workplace scenes.
However, the real humor and heart of the show come from Mindy's struggles with love. At the beginning of the season, Mindy dated Josh (Tommy Dewey), a blonde sports manager with high-flying friends. All seems to be going well, until she finds out she was "the other woman" to Josh's long-time girlfriend, who shows up at Mindy's holiday party and wrecks havoc. Though Mindy likes to sarcastically include that she is constantly being discriminated for her skin color, Kalig exemplifies the common struggles of most women in the dating world.
Towards the middle of the season, love interests start to take a turn as Mindy begins the new year with a new found love Casey (Anders Holm). Mindy quickly becomes so smitten by the humble priest with whom she decides to make a drastic decision and join him on his altruistic journey to Haiti. Though an abrupt decision, the seasons leaves us with a sudden cliffhanger. Rather than immediately setting off with Casey, Mindy's journey is first interfered by nearly kissing her co-worker Danny, a colleague with mutual sexual tension throughout the season.
While the first season definitely had its ups and downs, the past twenty-four episodes have had success in the sense that they established several important characters and stayed consistent with plot lines. Although the Mindy Project has become slightly predictable with its romantic comedy cliches, Kaling's witty writing and quick acting makes the upcoming season two worth while.

Why do brands exhibit at fairs and then have closed stands?
Last month at my first visit to Salon International de la Lingerie in Paris I was very frustrated by the number of brands that expected me to have made an appointment to see them at the show.
I only wanted to pop in and have a quick look at the collection to decide if I felt a more lengthy appointment was worthwhile.
I've been in retailing for many years, but have been running my lingerie shop for just two years, so I'm still building up my contacts.
You would think brands would want to meet a potential new stockist like me, but they do make it difficult even to make contact. Maybe it was a French or Italian attitude I came up against in Paris, but I'm hoping for an open-door policy on the stands at Pure London and Moda this month.
We are always being told that not enough independents attend trade shows. Those of us who do spend our precious time and money turning up ought to be appreciated more. I can promise that all independent buyers will be given a warm welcome at the Fashion Association of Britain (FAB) stands at Olympia and the NEC. Do drop by.

Some Problems on Linux
FlarePlayer
Monday, October 19, 2020 - 12:36
first of all thanks a lot for the game. After some short starting trouble it became a lot of fun.
What's not so good is that something like "apt install flare" is still possible, because it delivers an outdated version for ubuntu.
Now I installed the empyrean campaign additionally. Can I copy my savegames to that version, and if so, how?
And in the old version: Are the "three brothers" the final boss opponents, isn't anything to do after them in that game?
dorkster
Tuesday, October 20, 2020 - 08:49
The three brothers quest is the end of the content in the alpha demo (aka version 0.19).
The alpha demo and the Empyrean campaign are completely incompatible, so you can't use your save games across them. But for reference, your save games are located in ~/.local/share/flare/saves/
I'm curious how outdated your version of Flare is. You should be able to get the version number from the top right of the title screen. I think Ubuntu 20.04 ships Flare 1.09 in its repositories.
Thanks for the answer
My empyrean flare has version 1.11. Is that outdated, too?
I would like to report another annoyance: After installing this I thought "Certainly there will be more content after defeating the three brothers" but there wasn't, because I apparently activated a wrong mod. So I played just the same, it would have been helpful if there would have been a message about incompability of mods (empyrian was activated too)

It is just a general rule of Linux, that with the exception of games that have/had a large project team (+20 or more active people) and are at least ten years old, you really shouldn't even bother expecting to get a decent game out of the package manager, particularly something like Debian.
Smaller project teams really can't afford the overhead of doing all the work to get into something like Debian anyway and still actually have a creative and playable non-demo version of a game. In the case of wanting the latest version of a game (most games, unless the criteria in the previous paragraph are met) You will want the developer version straight from git and all the developer libraries, as long is as it is a version that compiles and runs. I know it sounds intimidating, getting a bunch of programmer tools and developer libraries just to play a game, but Linux doesn't really have the separation between users and developers that windows does.
Version 1.11 is the latest release, so you're up to date. I'll see what can be done about marking mods as incompatible in order to warn players accordingly.

I came across this quote this morning and just had to share it with you: "It is an ironic habit of human beings to run faster when we have lost our way." (Rollo May, Psychologist) While I don't subscribe to many of the beliefs of existential psychology, this thought just captured my attention because of the simple observation May made about us 'running faster'. Those who have lost their way often are like little gerbils in the proverbial wheel - running, running, running. All the while, they are getting absolutely nowhere. It doesn't matter how fast we run - we are still lost! The more we run, the deeper into the place of 'being lost' we find ourselves. Sometimes the best thing we can do is just to sit down, admit we are lost, and prepare to be rescued!
In situations of survival, one of the things they teach you is not to wander from where you find yourself at the point of 'being lost'. The more you wander, the harder it will be for you to be found! The more you wander, the deeper into 'lost-ness' you actually become. To be rescued, one has to stop long enough to prepare the signs that they need to be rescued. For example, they tell you to gather kindling and wood to be ready to start a fire to alert search planes of your location, or place a bunch of driftwood or stones together to spell out SOS so it can be seen from above. You find something shiny, like a piece of glass or a mirror to signal using the sun's light to reflect your location. You 'do' something, but it doesn't involve running!
The 'running' comes when we realize we are not where we are supposed to be - we panic and we want a quick way out of where it is we find ourselves. We run because we are scared - we are not excited about where it is we find ourselves at the moment. The place isn't 'right' for us and this causes an emotional response of 'panic' - that sudden, overwhelming fear that causes us to do things that would otherwise be considered irrational. Panic has a way of getting us into circumstances that aren't going to make things better - they are just going to compound the issues we face! I had three cats at one time and when one would get startled, jump and run - all of them would. They had no clue why they were running - they just panicked because the first cat was running!
We have a tendency to 'run' with a sense of panic because we see others running. This might be fine in nature when the gazelle is attempting to escape the lion pride on the hunt for their next meal, but it isn't going to cut it in our day-to-day actions as humans. We might experience overwhelming fear on occasion, but running from that place of fear doesn't usually deal with what it is we feared in the first place. It just gets us very, very tired! Did you ever stop to consider why the SOS signal is placed on the beach or the fire is lit to signal one's whereabouts? It is because rescue oftentimes comes 'from above'. While rescue is possible from the ground level - the line of sight is much greater when it is from above. This is why they use search planes and helicopters to attempt to find lost hikers and downed wreckage of crashed planes.
The view from above has a different perspective of what is below. In life, our rescue isn't so much on the same parallel plane on which we 'got lost' in the first place - it is from above! We need to not run away from our 'lost-ness', but admit it, prepare for rescue, and be alert to our coming rescuer! Those who are rescued the quickest are those who don't run away from the place of their first discovering they are lost! Just sayin!

Sheffield murder inquiry: Everything police said after two children die and four rushed to hospital
Police have arrested a 37-year-old man and a 34-year-old woman on suspicion of murder and they remain in custody

Police have issued a full statement after two boys died in hospital following a serious incident in Sheffield.
The teenagers, aged 13 and 14, died after they were taken to hospital on Friday morning according to South Yorkshire Police.
Three children, aged 11, 10 and three, and a seven-month-old baby remain in hospital receiving treatment, but they are not in a life-threatening condition.
A 37-year-old man and a 34-year-old woman have been arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with the incident and remain in custody at this time.
The children cannot be named for legal reasons and the cause of death has not yet been established.
Post-mortem examinations will be carried out on Friday.
Police have reportedly said it is too early to comment on the relationship of the children to each other or to the two adults who have been arrested.
The area has been cordoned off (Image: PA)
The force said officers were called to the semi-detached house in Gregg House Road in the Shiregreen area of Sheffield at around 7.30am.
But detectives have given no indication about the nature of the incident apart from confirming it was not a shooting and that it was confined to the one property.
A spokesman said detectives are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.

Speaking at the scene, Superintendent Paul McCurry said: "I think it's really important that I reassure the wider community that there's no wider risk."
Mr McCurry said: "The investigation is at a very early stage and detectives are working closely with a number of different lines of inquiry.
"Our detectives are supporting the family."

The senior officer said: "I'm aware of wider speculation regarding the use of weapons. At the moment there is no wider risk to the community in Sheffield."
He said the children in hospital are conscious, and added: "They are being given the necessary care that they need. And they will be in hospital for certainly the next few hours."

He said a post-mortem examination would take place later.
Mr McCurry said officers were alerted after an "independent call for assistance".
People living nearby said they were shocked to see more than a dozen police cars and four ambulances arrive on the tree-lined road and an air ambulance land in the grounds of Hartley Brook Primary Academy, which is just 100m from the scene.

Detective Chief Inspector Simon Palmer, who is leading the investigation, said: "To allow the investigation to progress, I would please ask that people are mindful of what they are posting on social media, and the potential distress this may cause."
The street was partially cordoned off as police officers and forensics teams examined the council-style property where the incident happened.

The three-bedroom property is similar to many on the north Sheffield estate, but has an unkempt garden with an old, yellow Ford Fiesta parked on the front lawn, apparently abandoned.
People brought flowers and balloons to the police cordon and groups of young people were see in tears.
One woman laying flowers said: "It's just so sad. I hope the rest of the kids get well."

Sometimes, you notice that the "System" storage section is occasionally quite large when you visited on the iOS Storage setting section Settings app on an iPhone or iPad. It can take up enough amount of storage capacity. If the device are taking a large storage capacity then it's is not a big issue, but if your "System" is consuming 16GB of storage on a 32GB device then it means a storage burden is bumping on total space of a device, potentially preventing other uses of the device due to being unable to download apps, games, media, or other stuff to the device. So in this situation, you need to reduce a large "System" storage section of iOS devices immediately.
In this post, we will cover a simple way to reduce the total size of "System" storage as we have found on the Storage settings of an iPad or iPhone.
How to Check Current "System" Storage Size in iOS?
Before starting the process, you might wish to find an idea of how large your current "System" storage is before reducing the capacity. With the help of below-given steps, you can check the System storage size.
To start the process, you need to open the "Settings" app on your iPhone or iPad.
After that, you will move to "General" section.
Then you need to wait for the storage usage to calculate.
Then, you will scroll all of the ways to the bottom of the Storage screen to get the "System" and total storage capacity consumption of its.
Most of the systems come with various sizes it's can be includes 7 GB or so, but it can also easily be 10GB, 15GB, or even a whopping 25 GB or larger too, often even on the same device type. That seemingly random but significant storage usage makes "System" a bit like the "Other" storage which has long irritated for some of the users by using device storage in iOS.
To start this process, you will need for an iOS device, a computer with iTunes, and a USB cable to connect the device to the computer system. If you have already done all these things, then let come to the point.
First of all, you will open the iTunes on your computer system as a Mac or Windows PC.
Then you will connect the USB cable with your computer system.
After that connect your iPhone or iPad with that USB cable.
By using your device password, you need to unlock the iPhone or iPad.
Please note- If you have never connected it to the computer before you will need to "Trust" the computer system when that pop-up shows up.
Now, leave your iPhone or iPad connected to the computer system with iTunes open for a few minutes.
Now move to the "Storage" section of your device.
It should have recalculated and often reduced in size considerably.
Now, you should disconnect your iPhone or iPad from the computer system and then USB cable also.
Now you are ready to use your new free storage space.
Remember note- This method is so useful for an iPhone X with a 25.6 GB system space, it only freed up less than 1 GB. Nowadays, some of the users may report more dramatic changes in the size of "System," but there does not seem to be much rhyme or reason involved if you have any hunches share them in the comments further below.
We hope that this process will help you to Reduce "System" Storage Size on iOS Devices.

With lengthy attraction stages, long application processes and the continual shift in behaviour and opinion, the graduate market is a very unique, and at times difficult, market to successfully target and recruit from. This is a market that requires a specifically tailored and moderated candidate experience. As the next graduate recruitment milkround begins how is your organisation staying in tune with the thoughts and motivations of its target market? Do you have up-to-the-minute analysis of each campaign to ensure they stay on track or to flag up paths that need adjusting? And how will you process this analysis as a benchmark for building an even more successful campaign next year?
Whilst most companies generally measure their target audience through focus groups at universities or informal sessions with recent hires, these processes don't offer access to the thoughts of those who provide continual insight into on-going campaigns – the applicants. With Mystery Applicant this is possible.
Mystery Applicant targets graduates throughout the application process gathering feedback both during and after the campaign has been completed. By collecting data in this way, it can not only measure a graduate's motivations, expectations and company perception prior to applying, it can also offer insight into how their experience of the recruitment process has affected these factors and their future choices.
How has your brands perception – both the corporate and employer brand – influenced applications. And, just as importantly, how has the recruitment process affected this? Recruitment should be seen as a company's hidden marketing tool – candidates are customers too – as an applicant's experience during this process will shape their perception of and interaction with the company in the future.
Here is an opportunity to really get to know the target audience. What about the company has motivated them to apply? Graduate campaigns comprise of so many different activities, but which inspired the graduate most? In a competitive graduate market, what differentiates companies is what makes them most inviting. Find out what motivates candidates to apply and understand where the company really lies in the market.
The candidate experience, employer brand and EVP have been tailored to a tee but has it met the expectations of the target market?
Mystery Applicant measures recruitment processes and behaviours across all demographic groups, analysing feedback by gender, ethnicity, education type and university. This ensures companies are provided with a true handle with which to manage and measure their diversity policy.
Find out early on what areas and universities key talent comes from so that engagement can start early and ensure that the best talent is loyal to your company.
With real-time feedback there's no need to wait until the end of the process to assess a campaigns impact. Up-to-the minute feedback enables companies to track how campaigns are going, pushing areas of success and allowing adjustments to be made before they have a negative impact. Comprehensive analysis of this year also offers a benchmark for the next, ensuring the company will build on its successes year-on-year.
From previous campaigns we've supported clients on we know that graduates appreciate being asked to give feedback and are keen to share their views offering very detailed responses on what's working well and where there's room for improvement. Gathering feedback in this way not only offers informative business insights but also shows graduates that you appreciate their application and are proactive about offering them the best experience.

Q: Mock class to manipulate return value of function call in method I'm trying to test a class, every method is tested except for the last one, this one is kinda tricky for me because it calls another method in the same class and uses it's return value to return a string to the user.
/**
 * Get the total time elapsed as a
 * human readable string
 *
 * @return string
 */
public function getElapsedTimeString()
{
    $elapsed = $this->getElapsedTime();

    return "{$elapsed} seconds elapsed.";
}

In order to test it i need to make sure that $this->getElapsedTime() will return a set value like 5 or 6, i've been trying to do this with mocks, but it's not working, it returns null every single time.
public function testGetElapsedTimeStringMethod()
{
    // Create Mock of the CarbonTimer class
    $mock = $this->getMockBuilder(CarbonTimer::class)
        ->getMock();

    // Configure the Mock Method
    $mock->method('getElapsedTime')
         ->willReturn(5);

    $this->assertEquals("5 seconds elapsed.", $mock->getElapsedTimeString());
}

What am i missing here? Sorry in advance if it's a dumb question, i'm just getting started with PHPUnit and it's a bit overwhelming

A: Got it to work like this, simply used setMethods with the name of the method i wanted to override, no idea why this worked yet, but it did.
public function testGetElapsedTimeStringMethod()
{
    // Create Mock of the CarbonTimer class
    $stub = $this->getMockBuilder(CarbonTimer::class)
        ->setMethods(['getElapsedTime'])
        ->getMock();

    // Configure the Mock Method
    $stub->method('getElapsedTime')
         ->willReturn(5);

    $this->assertEquals("5 seconds elapsed.", $stub->getElapsedTimeString());
}
