The Tulsa Drillers return to ONEOK Field for their fifth homestand of the year as they take on one of their North Division rivals in the Northwest Arkansas Naturals beginning Tuesday, June 7.
The Drillers will host the Naturals (Double-A affiliate of the Kansas City Royals) June 7-10 before hitting the road again for an 8-game road trip.
Although the Naturals will only be in town for four days, the two clubs will play five games thanks to a doubleheader on Tuesday, June 7 to make up a game that was rained out in April. Gates will open at 4:00 PM for the doubleheader with the first game scheduled to begin at 4:30 PM. Game two is expected to start at 7:05 PM.
The game on Wednesday, June 8 will have the first pitch thrown at 12:05 PM with gates opening at 11:00 AM. The final two games on Thursday and Friday, June 9-10 will each begin at 7:05 PM with gates opening at 6:00 PM.
The complete promotional list for the homestand is below.
Individual tickets for all games in the homestand are currently available for purchase online at TulsaDrillers.com, in person at the ONEOK Field Ticket Office (201 N. Elgin Avenue) or over the phone at (918) 744-5901. Any tickets purchased for Tuesday, June 7 will be good for admission to both games.
DOES MAY HAVE TO BE OVER? Following a rough month of April that saw Tulsa go just 8-13, the club really turned things around in May. The Drillers went 17-11 during the second month of the season and would have likely tied their previous best record for May since 2006 if it weren't for a late off day and a rainout in Frisco to end the month. The 2006 Drillers club went 18-11 in May of that year.
PITCHERS SETTING THE TONE: The Drillers winning ways have seen contributions from each aspect of the club, but the pitchers have been especially dominant. The Tulsa staff currently leads the Texas League with a 2.98 team ERA as the club enters June, and is also ranked third in strikeouts with 420 in 444.2 total innings. The 2.98 ERA mark also stands as the second-best team ERA in all of Double-A behind only the Hartford Yard Goats in the Eastern League who have a 2.85 staff ERA.
RECORD AGAINST OPPONENT: The Drillers have historically played well against the Naturals at ONEOK Field as Tulsa holds a 44-34 record against Northwest Arkansas going into the series. After losing eight of the first nine games against their rivals to start the year, the Drillers got things turned around a bit their last time playing the Naturals as they won the final two games in Springdale on their last road trip.
The homestand will get started with two, 7-inning games on a $2 Tuesday as the Drillers and Naturals make up their previous game that was rained out back on April 29. The first game will begin at 4:30 PM with the second game scheduled to begin at 7:05 PM, or 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first contest. Any tickets purchased will be good for both games.
Speaking of $2 Tuesday, the latest edition of $2 Tuesdays is brought to you by the City of Tulsa: Focus on the Four program, 2 Works For You and Z104.5 The Edge! Fans can purchase General Admission Lawn tickets for only $2 each, while all other tickets are discounted $3 off normal prices.

This wine has a very elegant and fresh nose with lots of black fruit that give it character and singularity. The French oak makes a subtle contribution, lending the wine great complexity. In the mouth it is very concentrated with excellent, smooth, silky and firm tannins.
This is a well-balanced, fresh wine, packed with fruit, in which the notes of blackcurrants, black cherries and spices are especially notable. Long and very persistent finish.


The infected are raging and the darkness grows as Secret Cinema's 28 Days Later event keeps going strong in the capital. Now artist Dan Mumford has taken inspiration from the outbreak and designed this stunning limited edition print to tie into Secret Cinema's immersive event.
'Prepare yourself for a brand-new horror experience. Secret Cinema Presents is bringing Danny Boyle's 2002 British cult classic, 28 Days Later, to life. When Jim (Cillian Murphy), wakes from a coma to discover a deadly virus has infected London and society has all but collapsed, he must fight for survival in a world that has been torn apart by the infected.
If you're wondering how you can get your hands on one of these beauties then fear not, it's as simple as clicking on this little link.
Also, if you've found yourself intrigued by the work on display here and want to find out what else the artist has done there is no better place to start looking than his Facebook page right here.
They are pretty cool events to go along to!
That's a great poster. I did Secret Cinema once back when it was still actually a secret for the film Brazil. I was the only person I came across all night though who had actually seen it though. Ha ha!

In the days of the Red River Rebellion
Down the Saskatchewan to Fort Canton by skiff--Fort Pitt—Noted Indian chiefs—A lonely camp and a solitary wolf—A celestial battle—David brings his bride to Victoria—News from the outside world—To Edmonton in a spring-waggon—My wonderful crop of potatoes— A severe attack of the mumps—A visit from father— Two typical westerners—The White Mud Settlement.
I HAD at this time summering with me my sister, Mrs. Hardisty, and her children. One day a courier came in from Fort Canton instructing me to send Mrs. Hardisty and family down to that point, and as all the Hudson's Bay Company's posts and forts were parts of our missions and circuits, and as this gave me the opportunity of visiting Fort Pitt and possibly Fort Canton, and also of meeting any Indians who might be em route to or fro, I concluded to take her and children down the river in the skiff. Arranging to have her horses and two of mine driven across country in the first place to Fort Pitt, we embarked and began our journey down stream. In less than two days we had made Fort Pitt, which I judge is from one hundred and eighty to two hundred miles by the winding of the river; but such was the current, and so continuous was our movement day and night, without loss of time, that we did better than a hundred miles in a day. Here we heard that Mr. Hardisty had passed west, hoping to meet his wife and children, of course never thinking of their coming by river. Knowing that he would return to this point when he met our men and horses, we waited and I had full opportunity W do some mission work. Here traded the Plain and Wood Crees, the Chippewyans of the Beaver River and north country, the Saulteaux and the Cree, and sometimes even Blackfeet came to this post. In my time noted Indians, such as Sweet Grass, Big Bear and Little Pine, made this their headquarters. A big trade in provisions was generally done here, and both wood and plain furs were taken in large quantities; many a boat-load of furs and pemmican went down the Saskatchewan annually from Fort Pitt. Several times in my journeyings I had been privileged to preach the Gospel in the mother-tongue to people who up to these times had never heard it. Nomads, wanderers out of the ages, a strange, mysterious people they were, and how solemnly and earnestly they would look into my eyes as I came to them in their own language with this new and wonderful evangel. This present occasion was no exception, and I held services with a mixed crowd of tribes and peoples. God only knows if any permanent good was done as to Christianity, but in the meantime, at any rate, they were made to understand something aboit law and civilization, and, I do hope, of Christ and heaven.
Hardisty came in Sunday afternoon and thus relieved me of going any farther. We visited a good part of Monday and then parted, my friends going east and I west. It was a lovely evening, and alone with my two horses, Bob No. 1 and Archie, either following the other and not needing to be led, my equipment a leather shirt, trousers and blanket, and my gun and ammunition and some dried meat as provision all on my saddle, so that my free horse was indeed free, on we went and near dark crossed Frog Creek and camped. I have already told my readers I never was made to be alone; I have always found myself in such condition under protest. I remember I was unusually lonely that night. I hobbled my horses, and as they moved off to better grass I made a fire and roasted some dried meat, and nibbling at it thought one man thirty-five miles from the nearest of his kind, so far as he knows, is entirely too far away, and I wondered how some are so constituted as almost to enjoy solitude. Then I became aware that a pair of eyes were fastened on me. A casual glance over my shoulder caught a movement, and gripping my gun I awaited developments. Presently I saw that the object looking down from the brink of the hill was a big timber wolf. This was a relief, for if he was alone I did not fear him; so I threw more wood on the fire, renewed my attention to the dried meat, and by and by moved away and spread my saddle-blanket, then wrapping myself in my own blanket I lay down with gun at hand and fell asleep to waken as the day sky came with all nature around me and myself as well covered with heavy dew. Breaking another bit of meat, I ate as I went for my horses, which had ascended the hill and hobbled some distance. Soon I was back again, and saddling up was off on the lope in the fresh of the morning, while all the earth and its luxuriant vegetation was glistening with moisture, which, as the sun appeared, flashed and brightened the whole scene. I said to myself, "I will do well if I reach Saddle Lake to-day." A vigorous trot, a few miles of canter alternating, and in three hours changing horses, on I went across valleys and over plains, in and out and through and between islands of timber, all the white keeping a sharp lookout on the distant horizon, and as much as possible on everything within this, myself always its centre. Thus across Moose Creek and the Dog Rump and the immense stretches of country this side and between and beyond them, on and on past Egg Lake No. 2, and by the early evening I had made Saddle Lake, with self and horses still fresh.
Near sundown, while going over a high range of hills, I witnessed a grand celestial battle. Two heavy thunder-clouds were coming rapidly together, the meeting promising to take place right over my course. I alighted and belted my blanket about me, leaving the upper part to pull over my head; then, resuming my ride, saw the wonderful fight in the heavens above. Lightning flashed and artillery roared, and down came a torrent of rain, until the jump of my horse was one continuous splash. And now the scene was sublimely grand: flash and crash and roar and rumble, and then another louder and angrier discharge, and thus these atmospheric legions approached each other, each jagged cloud seeming to reach out to the skirmishing lines of the other. Suddenly they gripped, and the heavens opened their floods, and splash, splash went my horse's feet until we were on the bridge of the White Mud and only nine miles from home. Then I jumped down, and unsaddling my horse I caught the other, and bestriding him was away through the jack-pines, a narrow strip of sandy ]and, and across the Smoky Creek and through the valley and over the hill, and down into Victoria and home. The bracing effect of that northern air may be imagined when I remark that neither myself nor horses were tired, and yet since morning we had come one hundred and three miles—not guesswork but actual measurement. Not sleeping much the night before, and being drenched through to the skin for some hours in the evening, I was in prime condition for sleep; indeed I awoke only when our people were preparing the table for dinner. Dressing I went out to look at my horses, who met me with a whinny and a look that said, "Well, we are ready to go on," and I rubbed their noses and slapped their backs and went into dinner.
At this time my sister Libbie, afterwards Mrs. Young, and my two eldest daughters, Flora and Ruth, were with me. But one day who should turn up out at the hay-field where I was working but my brother David, who blushed as he told me that he had not come alone, having brought with him a wife. Of course I was glad, for his sake as also for my own, as they would for this year, I hoped, make their home with me in the Mission house. I put away my scythe for the rest of the afternoon, and went in with David to be introduced to my new sister, whom I found to be a bright, fresh, healthy young Scotch-Canadian woman, daughter of a sturdy pioneer of the second degree—first in Ontario and now in Manitoba. I found the two women already well acquainted, and no wonder, for they were but two of the same kind in an immense stretch of country. David and his bride had driven nine hundred miles on their honeymoon trip, and coming on fast had left their cart and outfit far in the rear. David had the latest news from the outside world: Winnipeg was starting, settlers were coming in, the change had begun. He had brought with him some new arms which were significant of a change.
The next morning we took my two horses and David's light rig, and he and I started on a flying trip to Edmonton. We have the news of the world, and only some weeks old; we are not selfish, we must share it with father and mother and friends at Edmonton; at any rate we will be back for Sunday. "Good-bye, girls," and we are away in a whirl of dust. This is my first ride in a three-spring waggon for many years; it quite intoxicates me, and Bob and Archie are wondering what kind of vehicle they are pulling behind them. The waters have subsided, and we fairly bowl along, and early next day are telling the news of Winnipeg and Toronto and London, yea, the world, to a listening company at Edmonton. Turning back the next morning, we are at Victoria the following day and at work again.
This had been a season of almost absolute rest from tribal war in this north land. The buffalo had kept out on the plains and had been quite numerous; this wild people, too, had seen so much of death in the last year that they were weary of trouble and longed to have rest for a season. However, as autumn advanced the buffalo came north, and with them the camps, and hovering near and on the trails of these the war-parties. We were every little while hearing of fresh skirmishes, and were glad enough when our settlement began to fill up for the winter.
This was the autumn of my wonderful crop of potatoes and barley. In the spring I said to myself, "I don't know much about farming, but I believe in this country I can make no mistake about potatoes and barley;" so I went to work and hauled out all the manure about the place, and then ploughed deep, for I had a good team of work horses that had been trained on a farm. Then I sowed my potatoes and handled them in my own way, in the summer weeded and tilled them, and in autumn the promise was rich. But a large camp of Plain Crees came in and settled for a couple of weeks just outside and above the mission field, and presently it was told me, "John, they're stealing your potatoes," and I said, "Ke-yam" (" Never mind,") and my very indifference stopped the stealing in a large measure. Presently I thought I would ask this whole camp to help me dig up my crop. Accordingly I said to the chief, Big Bear, and some of his head men, "To-morrow I want to take up my potatoes; will you tell the people to help me?" and they promised to do so. - I made my arrangements, team, waggon, bags, etc., and the next day we went at it, men, women and children. Soon the potatoes, in piles, and heaps, and bags, were all over the ground. I selected some young men to load and unload, and did no more myself than drive about superintending the work. The way those potatoes were dug and picked and cleaned and dusted and bagged was a caution, also the way my loading crew worked was splendid. The whole thing was new to these buffalo-eaters; the wonderful crop, this strange four-wheeled iron-bound cart, this most obedient team of horses. Some of them had never taken part in such sport in all their history, and all day I took the fertility of the soil, and the response to agriculture, industry, and the beneficence of the Creator as my texts, and from the vantage ground of the waggon, with reins in hand and rushing things, I lectured and preached every little while to listening crowds. This was a first-class object lesson; every little while some one would say, "John, look! " and there going for camp would he a woman or girl bending under the weight of potatoes inside her blanket, and I merely said, carelessly, "Ke-yam, ke-yam." Indeed there was no need to worry over a few potatoes—the ground was full of them.
All day we hauled in that short distance. The Mission was in possession of a huge cellar which some miners had made as an expression of gratitude to father, and into this we sent the potatoes like a deluge. All day the sneaking of back-loads off to camp went on, and in the evening there still remained fully one-fourth of the field undug. Then I sent for the chief and told him I was grateful for the help his people had given me, and that I was satisfied that he might now dismiss them home to camp and tell them that I would give his camp the balance of the field to dig for themselves. There were loud acclaims at this announcement, and the chief sent the people home on the jump, promising a fair start for all in the morning. And I can assure my reader that in the morning that field was a sight, and further, I will venture to say that no spot in the British realm had any better pulverizing and cultivating than that one during that season. I once and for all time demonstrated that potatoes could be grown on the Saskatchewan.
Following on the heels of the smallpox of last season, the mumps were the fashionable disease of this year; several had died of them, and the type was a severe one. Some time in October an old Indian brought me word of buffalo near at hand, and as I had two Indian boys with me we hunted up our horses, and crossing a waggon and two carts, took with us a couple of running horses and started out after meat. Already I had premonitions of mumps and felt very miserable; nevertheless I went on, and meeting with much success in my hunt, was soon loaded up with fine meat. But oh, how I suffered I Presently I was unable to sit on my horse. This would have been a glorious trip, both for the supplying of our need for fresh meat and for the sport connected therewith, had it not been for those abominable mumps and my sublime inexperience concerning them. As it was I did the very worst I could have done, and intensified the disease, as doubtless did numbers of others, some of whom died in consequence.
For the home journey I had to lie stretched out on top of the waggon, and in the two days we occupied in travelling it seemed to me I died many times; every rut and knoll was torture to me, and when I reached Victoria my brother David was so shocked with my appearance that he at once despatched a courier to Edmonton for father. Then an old half-breed, Peter Whitford, came to see me and took me in hand and helped me, and when father arrived I was able to meet him up the road, and he smiled as we shook hands and said that he almost expected as much, but was so startled by David's despatch that he hurried down. We were glad to see him. This was his first introduction to his new daughter, Annie. He had ridden in a hurry ninety miles over a rough country, and would now return and make no fuss about it, nor lose much time in this journey of one hundred and eighty miles. Verily this big country gave men to take on big ideas of life and work. This last summer had been to father a busy onco, but now the humble mission-house at Edmonton was ready for occupancy, some out-buildings erected, and the start on the church made. Much mentaI. worry, much hard physical labor, everything done by hand —chopping, sawing, planing without any machinery—to build a house at this time and have it finished half-way decent entailed labor and patience in the extreme, and with all this came the week-night meetings and all the Sunday work. Other men rested, but the missionary never; he was doctor, surgeon, dentist, nurse, lawyer, magistrate, judge; he was diplomat and ambassador, and all the time the representative of civilization and government and church and Christianity; no wonder the lines multiplied on his face and his hair became gray. And thus the winter of 1871 and 1872 came to the missions of the Saskatchewan.
Our life at Victoria was a full one. Never in the history of this place had we so many people about us as at this time; church services were packed week-nights and Sundays. My regular work on the Sabbath was, twice in Victoria, morning and evening, and an afternoon appointment ten miles out, where I conducted a Sabbath-school, and held a preaching service immediately afterward. This was known as the White Mud Settlement, and here dwelt two typical men. One of these was John Norris, of gypsy origin in the Old Country, it was said, who came out as a lad in the Hudson's Bay service, by way of Hudson Bay, and had well assimilated the West during his long term of service. Now, as it was termed, he had "gone free," and was freighting and trading, and had grown quite prosperous. A hardy, tough specimen of humanity, a regular fighter with either fists or gun, it was all the same to Jack; withal a good-hearted man, fully amenable to kindly fellowship and Christian manhood. Father was to him a hero, one to be loved and pre-eminently respected. It was in Jack's house that we held our Sunday-school and after-service, and we were genuinely welcomed and all due preparations made for the comfort of both preacher and people. Mr. Norris is still living as I write, and has had a considerable part in the opening up of the North-West. Now in his ripening years he enjoys and well deserves the respect of the whole community.
The other man was from the north of Ireland, his Saxon origin fully revealed in the long flaxen hair, blue eyes and fair skin. He likewise was typical as an Irishman; language, wit, nervous impetuosity, all these he had to the full. He had crossed the continent in the early days; he had seen California when the gold fever was at its height, and had come north along the Pacific coast, through every mining camp; was in at the early days of Washington, Oregon and Montana, and now had settled for a time on the White Mud to take up farming. He had married and was, at the time of which I write, a useful citizen and an earnest worker in every department of local life. Sam Livingstone, or "Sam" as everybody called him, was, as I have said, a typical Irishman, and was taking on Americanism as fast as his nature admitted of his so doing. We can only move at a certain rate in the process of development; anything faster is hurtful in the long run, indeed is often suicidal; and the philanthropist or government that does not recognize this has not watched history nor yet given much heed to either God's or Nature's method. Sam was taking on strength when conditions were favorable, but he lost quickly when these were reversed. To him, as to John Norris, father was a tower of strength. "The old man," as Sam and the frontiersmen generally termed father among themselves, "was one to swear by, you bet." Sam and many others pinned their faith to him. Just now, on his farm and alongside of a mission and such like influences, Sam was a host.
All through the Conference year of 1871-2 I was much in touch with the White Mud Settlement. Then there were Indian camps which I visited and ministered to, sometimes one day's journey distant, sometimes two days', making a four days' trip. During this winter, between November 1st and April 1st, I travelled by dog- train two thousand miles, and with horses one thousand, and yet was very little away from my work at Victoria; indeed, I seemed to stay at borne much more than usual. The Mountain Fort, Pigeon Lake, Edmonton, White Fish Lake, Lac la Biche, and the Cree camps to the south near Battle River, gave me many short trips in addition to my regular Sunday travelling to appointment. My dogs were fliers, my horses were fat and good travellers, and we got over the country in a hurry. Work there was in plenty, and very little time for play all through those long winter months.

Q: Can or will Rebol run on Windows Phone 7? I have an iPhone, an Ipad, don't have yet windows phone 7, but will get it right now if rebol can run on windows phone 7 so does/will rebol support it :)
Note: rebol could run on windows mobile so my question : will it continue to run on next version ?
Well if they don't release NDK, I will buy a tablet with classic Windows 7, that for sure can run rebol and a bunch of softwares I already have :)

A: When the ARM core library will be compiled, it may be possible for someone to port the host-kit to many new hand-held devices including  Windows Phone 7, Android and even the iPhone (since they relaxed their TOS).
The ARM library is already high on the wish list of many people who are willing and able to work on the host-kit part of REBOL 3.
With 5 host-kit platforms already maintained by different developers (some indie) already at different levels of completion, the answer is not IF but rather WHEN will R3 run on these new exciting devices.
IMHO R3 still needs a little more stability work for mass porting, but in the last 2 months, I think R3 has matured to levels that are starting to catch up to R2 in many areas.
One good thing is that the extension API is proving to be highly effective and fast.  Its design is also stabilizing which is a good sign of the current maturity of the host-kit.
A caveat
One must understand that many mobile platforms have strict development licenses and some even have hard to integrate APIs into which executables must try and link in.
Many don't even want binaries to work directly and the road to integration isn't meant to be easy on purpose.  AFAIK winphone7 is probably the easiest one of the bunch, so don't despair.

A: Not until Microsoft or a third party releases a "native development kit" (NDK). The same problem hampers others, such as Firefox, who cannot readily port their apps to Silverlight, XNA or the .NET CF (which are the only Microsoft-supported development platforms at the moment).

Constructing energy efficient buildings and ensuring the thermal comfort of the occupants is a hard task to be fulfilled by architects and engineers. A common solution for this task is to insulate the surrounding walls and windows very strong. For office buildings this strong insulation shifts the annual energy consumption from heating and cooling energy. Therefore the energy concept of the E.ON ERC Main Building reduces the energy demand for heating and cooling with a responsible insulation. This is achieved by highly integrated and complex energy generation, conservation, distribution and benefit transfer.
The total energy system of the new E.ON ERC Main Building is based on geothermal energy and heat displacement in connection with a heat pump process. The geothermal field consists of 40 boreholes, each 100 m deep. Heating and cooling base loads are distributed by concrete core activation. A sorption-supported air conditioning unit provides fresh air to conference rooms and CIP-pools. Offices are equipped with façade ventilation units, covering peak loads with the supply of cold air during summer and warm air during winter. A gas-fired combined heat and power engine provides high temperature heat, which is used to regenerate sorption brine during summer.
As Heat Pump the Quantum by Cofely with its new radial turbo compressor technology is used. This heat pump is equipped with drive shaft bearings which work by way of magnetic technology. Hence, there is no mechanical wear on the turning parts and minimal risk of failure. The heat pump is used in a bivalent mode and provides heating and cooling energy. The heat pump can actively shift heating and cooling demands inside the building and it is able to use external heat sources and heat skins like geothermal probes and a recooling plant. The heating power is up to 180 kW whereas the cooling power is up to 258 kW. The electricity consumed is partly generated in a combined heat and power plant.
The central areas of the building like conference and meeting rooms as well as laboratories are supplied with conditioned air from central ventilation units. These units use a sorption process for air conditioning. In this process, the outdoor air is dried by a concentrated LiCl-brine. Meanwhile the return air is cooled down by evaporation and used to cool down the supply air via a cross-flow heat exchanger. The regeneration of diluted brine needs heating energy at a high temperature. This high temperature heating energy is generated by combined heat and power plant (CHP). Hence, during summer, CHP's waste heat is used within the process instead of being dissipated to the environment.
The controlling system of E.ON ERC main building has to make sure that the different distribution systems for heating and cooling are working together in an efficient way. Thereby, the core activation is responsible for long term demands of the building whereas the ventilation units take care of term demands of the user. All office rooms are equipped with decentralized façade ventilation units. These units are responsible for fresh air supply as well as active temperature control of the rooms. Speed controlled fans and an adaptive heat recovery system are integrated in every unit. Thereby, the air condition can be provided in a most efficient way.


text:
An effective date for contractual agreements works by giving both parties the time when obligations and requirements can and should begin with the contract. It also provides a strict limit for all services or products that need to be delivered within a certain time frame. Interestingly, however, validity dates do not always have to be at the time of signing the contract. It is important to note that the effective date may also apply at a specific time in the future and, interestingly, if necessary, at a specific time in the past. The effective date may be used to refer to a date in the future. This is often used in employment contracts that link the effective date to the day the employee starts work. But as Ken Adams points out, "it is misleading to link the effectiveness of the agreement to the date the employee starts work, because the agreement comes into effect once the parties have signed it." While this is not necessarily true – an agreement may postpone the rights and obligations of the parties to a future – it may not be in the best interest of the parties to an employment contract to defer all rights and obligations, but to define the duration of employment and determine the period of performance and payment. To understand the difference between signing a contract and coming into force of a contract, there are two terms that are important to know: the effective date and the performance date. The parties may negotiate for months prior to the contract date and then designate the date on which they began negotiations as the effective date. In this case, from the date of conclusion of the contract, the parties may assert retroactive rights that began on the specified date of entry into force.
Therefore, by entering into an agreement with a later start, the parties ensure that none of them back down to a later date. This helps to strengthen the assurance that the parties are willing to complete the transaction, provided that the conditions precedent are met and that there are no material facts that have not been disclosed. The parties agreed on a zero date, after which there was an exchange of letters between them. Several meetings were held between the parties to resolve the issues raised. Approximately one year after the agreed date zero, the respondent then responded to a letter from the Appellant asking him to treat the contract as expired. Users usually have to agree to the terms and conditions when downloading an associated app or connecting to a website. These Terms must not be different from the terms given and read at any other time by another use, unless these Terms are updated and all users are asked to approve the revised Terms. For a company seeking to go public, the effective date occurs within 30 days of the security`s registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), giving the SEC time to review the registration of Form S-1 to verify its completeness so that potential investors can make informed decisions. During this review period, the SEC may ask questions, seek clarification, or request that the Company supplement or amend certain sections of the filing. The parties enter into contracts to record their rights and obligations in writing, to ensure clarity and avoid uncertainty. An essential part of a contract is an "effective date".
The effective date of a contract indicates the date from which the terms of the contract come into force. It should not be confused with the "date of performance", the date on which the contract is performed by the parties. Since an effective date governs the coming into force of the rights and obligations of the parties, it is important to ensure that such a clause is properly worded to reflect the intentions of the parties. The date next to a signature should always be the date on which the party signed the document. In this case, the Respondent and the Appellant entered into agreements on the refurbishment of the Appellant`s power plants. "Date zero", i.e. the date of entry into force of the treaty, has been defined as the date on which the conditions set out therein were met. These included, among other things, the signing of the contract and the provision of bank guarantees by the respondent for the benefit of the appellant. The contract provided that if the zero date does not occur within six months of the agreed date, the contract will expire automatically and without liability on both sides and the prices will be renegotiated. When signing your next contract, take the time to read the document carefully.
Now that you know the difference between an effective date and an expiration date, pay attention to the document to see exactly when it takes effect. A natural issue that may come to mind is the need for an effective date if the execution date is specified in an agreement. The answer is simple; This is done so that the parties can conclude an agreement and fulfill their obligations at a later stage, after certain conditions have been met. This ensures that the parties have an interest in going further in the agreement without immediately making commitments. For example, contracts often contain language that states that the entire contract comes into effect at a certain time. This date may be in the future if the parties agree to do so. Sometimes a written contract expressly provides that the contract will take effect on the day of signature, without specifying exactly when that date will be. If the written contract does not specify a date of entry into force, it takes effect at the time of its signature by all parties (note: this rule may vary according to the Unified Commercial Code). From the discussion and analysis above, it is clear that the use of an effective agreement is a useful way to get the parties to commit to continuing the transaction. It ensures that there is a certain level of certainty that the parties will complete the transaction if other conditions are met.
The interpretation of an effective date is clear and simple from what is stated in the contract. As far as it is clear, there is virtually no possibility of interference with such a clause. Even a difference of a few minutes, as discussed above, can determine a party`s contractual liability. Therefore, the parties must ensure that these clauses are clearly formulated in order to avoid any confusion or dispute in the future. Sometimes the parties use the effective date to refer to a future date on which either agreement comes into force. For example, the following is taken from a January 2004 employment contract and presumably refers to the date on which the employee will actually start working: Knowing the difference between the two dates is crucial to making sure you are processing your contracts correctly. You will understand when your role in the contract will come into effect and you will protect yourself from possible legal action. The conditions imposed that make the start of the agreement conditional are called "conditions precedent". Precedents are obligations imposed on the parties that must be fulfilled for the agreement to take effect. It may or may not be limited in time, but it is advisable to specify a period within which the clause must be respected, otherwise the agreement would be terminated.
The effective date is the beginning of your obligations set out in the contract. If you fail to comply with your obligations under the contract after that date, the other parties involved can now sue you for breach of contract. It is important to note the effective date of the contract, as you need to know when your obligations begin. Therefore, we can learn from this case that an agreement is based not only on suspensive clauses on the date of entry into force and conditions, but also on any other obligation that must be fulfilled before it begins. This underlines the importance of a well-formulated, coherent and coherent agreement that accurately reflects the intentions of the parties. It is important to remember that the anti-dating of the set expiration date is not the same as the anti-dating of the contract itself. The backing of a contract can be a criminal offence and constitutes a violation of the professional rules of lawyers. However, it is misleading to link the effectiveness of the agreement to the date the employee starts working, as the agreement comes into effect once the parties have signed it. .

Big Island residents self-monitoring for COVID-19
By West Hawaii Today Staff | Tuesday, February 25, 2020, 4:05 p.m.
Four Big Island residents continue to self-monitor with public health supervision for COVID-19, the newly identified coronavirus, state officials said in a Tuesday afternoon update.
The residents are among 61 across the state keeping an eye out for symptoms, 55 of whom are located on Oahu and the remainder evenly split between Kauai and Maui counties.
"Currently, there are no cases of COVID-19 identified in Hawaii. DOH is actively preparing for possible cases and working with state, county, and federal partners including the medical community in Hawaii," the State of Hawaii COVID-19 Joint Information Center said in a press release.
Currently, no Hawaii residents are in quarantine, according to the center.
The 61 individuals under monitoring were identified because of their recent travel to China were identified through screening by federal officials at the Daniel K. International Airport, according to the release.
Self-monitoring means voluntarily remaining at home and refrain from work, school, gathering places, and public transit, and communicating daily with Department of Health staff. Quarantined individuals are required to remain in a designated location, separated from others, and are actively monitored by Department of Health staff. Quarantine is enforceable by law.
While there are no cases of COVID-19 identified in Hawaii at this time, "state health officials do expect to eventually identify cases in Hawaii because this is a global health threat to our entire nation," the center said. "At this time, the imminent threat here in Hawaii is low. Nevertheless, state and county agencies are intensifying their preparations."
The Department of Health advises residents to prepare now by creating a family plan; putting together an emergency kit that includes a 14-day supply of food, water and other necessities; setting aside emergency supply of any needed medication; and picking up supplies for your pets.
To help prevent the spread of the virus, health officials recommend that people wash their hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds; avoid touching their eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands; avoid close contact with people who are sick; stay home when sick; cover their cough or sneeze with a tissue; and clean and disinfect frequently touched objects.
COVID-19 information is also available in English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Ilocano languages under "Resources" at the DOH website at https://health.hawaii.gov/docd/advisories/novel-coronavirus-2019.

Continental, a company which provides a range of automotive solutions such as tyres and advanced driver assistance systems, has been showing off its new autonomous minibus.
The company calls the vehicle Cube, short for Continental Urban Mobility Experience, and describes it as a "robo-taxi".
Bharati Robotics Systems has been showing off its new autonomous industrial floor cleaning robots.
The company says the small vehicle saves labour costs and increases productivity by up to 200 per cent, and cleans the floor better than humans, or the "highest quality of cleaning".
Autonomous electric vehicle maker Navya is set to open its first US production plant. Michigan Economic Development Corporation and Ann Arbor Spark are to collaborate with Navya on site selection and talent recruitment.
In a joint statement, Navya, MEDC and Ann Arbor Spark said the Michigan plant will be located in the city of Saline, Michigan with a 20,000+ sq ft facility.
Boston has become one of the main centres for robotics technologies in recent years, with many well-known companies emerging from the area.
Perhaps with this in mind, the Toyota Research Institute decided to showcase its latest developments in autonomous vehicle technology, something it's calling "Platform 2.0" – basically, its new driverless car – to attendees at the Robotics: Science and Systems conference at MIT.
Creative Office Properties and Dasher Lawless Automation broke ground last month on a subterranean, 277 stall AutoParkit System.
It is the largest fully automated parking structure below grade in the US It is longer than a football field and features multiple load bays to service both tenants and guests.


This live brief was a collaboration between 100% Optical Eyewear and the RCA School of Material. The brief was to design a pair of ready-to-wear glasses to be exhibited at the yearly 100%Optical tradeshow in the Excel centre in London, the largest eyewear tradeshow in the UK.
This design was 1 of 6 chosen winners to exhibit at 100%Optical in February 2015. My aim was to design Women's Ready-to-Wear sunglasses that incorporated a love for pattern whilst also exploring an interest in innovative print processes. The print and frames are inspired by abstract drawings of photographic shadow patterns. I explored printing onto the Acetate and Perspex frames with oil-based inks and also developed a method of printing onto the frames with Photochromic (UV light-reactive) inks.


In partnership with the Cape Town Candidate Attorney Association, GRM is pleased to invite Cape Town's Candidate Attorneys to The Stack Private Members Club for an evening with some of the City's leading In-House Counsel. Totally free of charge to attend and one drink per attendee.
This is your chance to hear from some of the leading Legal Counsels about why they left practice, the challenges for lawyers in-house, how you, as a practicing attorney should work with in-house counsels as a client, and how to engage and network with them.
Spaces are limited and we will work on a first come, first served basis.


As you'll see from my Route of the Month below, there's a little bit of a sports climbing theme this month. So, here's a little tip involving the use of a 'cheat-stick', or 'clip-stick' to give it its proper name.
Suppose you have just completed a sports climb and had used the clip-stick to clip the first bolt. Your partner now wants to lead the route but, like you, with the first bolt already clipped.
Start to pull your rope down, having left all the quick draws in place. Just before the tail of the rope reaches the lower-off point at the top, pause and reach up with the clip-stick and twist the head of the stick around the rope just above the first bolt. Now pull the rope using the clip-stick.
The last bit of the rope will run through the lower-off and it will whistle down to the ground leaving the first bolt already clipped and ready to climb. Voilà.
This month I took the unusual step of heading to the south of UK, to Dorset, for some sport climbing on Portland. This is somewhere that I have never climbed before. For all you folks in the south of England, a 'must do' route is Reptile Smile (6a+, 3 Star). It includes climbing up 'organ pipes' of flowstone, the likes of which you won't find anywhere else in the UK.
This is the famous 'Tower Gap' on Tower Ridge on Ben Nevis. Come and try it as a summer climb/scramble and then who knows, one day as a winter climb?

Produced by Nicholas Cage, Todd Garner, Norman Golightly, Graham King and Arne Schmidt
Directed by Lee Tamahori
Screenplay by Gary Goldman, Jonathan Hensleigh and Paul Bernbaum
Based on "The Golden Man" by Philip K. Dick
Cinematography by David Tattersall
Edited by Christian Wagner
Music by Mark Isham
One question folks like to ask me is this golden oldie: "Have you ever seen a movie so bad that you walked out on it?" And I've always answered: "No." And don't think that I stay to watch a movie all the way through out of some principal that I should stay to the end of a movie so that if I trash it later on I can do it fairly. I stay because I've paid my money and I'm not getting up until I've seen what I've paid for. That doesn't mean that there aren't plenty of movies I've wished I'd walked out on. I could give you a list in two minutes flat of 25 movies I wished I'd walked out on. And NEXT is near the top of that list. NEXT is so appallingly bad that I don't know who I feel sorrier for: the people who see it or the people who were contractually obligated to work on this movie. At least I hope they were contractually obligated.
Cris Johnson (Nicholas Cage) is a third rate Las Vegas magician performing under the name Frank Cadillac. He's not flashy enough to play the big rooms. He mainly works the small lounges where the losers nurse their drinks while trying to figure out how to tell their wives they've lost the kid's college fund shooting craps. Cris deliberately stays under the radar because he does have a gift that is akin to real magic: he can see two minutes into his own future and tell what's going to happen to him before it happens. He uses this talent to rake in some extra cash at the blackjack tables until one shitty night when he finds himself preventing a robbery that hasn't happened yet and winds up on the run from not only the Las Vegas Police Department but also FBI Special Agent Callie Ferris (Julianne Moore)
Turns out that Agent Ferris knows all about the special power Cris has, apparently from studying casino videotapes and somehow she's convinced herself that Cris can help her find and stop a band of terrorists who have a nuclear device somewhere in Los Angeles that they're going to denote in five days. Yeah, you read that right. Terrorists have an active nuclear device on American soil and the FBI is chasing after a Las Vegas magician instead of trying to find the bomb. Using his ability, Cris manages to stay out of the clutches of the cops and the feds as he desperately needs to find Liz (Jessica Biel) a young woman who keeps appearing in his visions of the future. But these visions don't take place two minutes in the future. They apparently take place days and even weeks ahead. Cris wants to find her to find out why. This leads to a scene that is actually kinda amusing and clever: using his ability to see two minutes ahead Cris can actually 'try out' different approaches of meeting Liz until he finds one that works.
Now while Cris and Liz are falling in love and Agent Farris is tearing her hair out trying to catch up to Cris, the head terrorist (Thomas Kretschmann) finds out that the FBI is trying to catch Cris because they think he can help them. In a stunning leap of logic that dazzled me beyond belief, Terrorist Number One pulls all of his people from their main objective of blowing up Los Angeles and sends them to kill Cris. His reasoning? Well, if the FBI thinks Cris can catch him then Cris has got to be killed at all costs. You think the guy would do a background check or something before committing all of his people to such an action but NEXT never lets anything resembling common sense or logic get in the way of the next CGI action sequence.
Supposedly NEXT is based on "The Golden Man" by Philip K. Dick. I've never read the story but I'd be willing to bet you my autographed copy of Clive Barker's 'Weaveworld' that it bears no relation to the movie at all. In fact, NEXT feels an awful lot like a television pilot on steroids. It plays as if the Johnny Smith character from 'The Dead Zone' was the hero of '24' instead of Jack Bauer. To be honest, I think the character of Cris Johnson/Frank Cadillac to be interesting enough to sustain a television series and the ways he uses his power in the movie shows he's a guy with brains. It's a given that he can actually dodge bullets since he knows where a sniper is going to shoot him before the sniper pulls the trigger. And he can evade and escape his pursuers since he literally knows where they're going to be before they do. He can outfight just about anybody since he knows from which direction their punches are coming. But there's a goofy chase sequence where he orchestrates an escape that has a kind of lunatic Wile E. Coyote kind of deranged genius in the way one thing crashes over and flips something else over and causes something else to roll downhill. There's also a nifty scene where Cris 'searches' an entire ship by himself simply by running through his mind every possible route he could take through the ship and foreseeing how the multiple routes will end.
And even though "Ghost Rider" is the better movie (although not by much) I liked Nicholas Cage's performance in NEXT much better. Not once in "Ghost Rider" did I buy him as a daredevil motorcycle stunt rider but here, he inhabited the skin of this character very well. Julianne Moore walks through her performance as if she just wants to get this over with, get her check and call Paul Thomas Anderson to beg him to have a role for her in his next movie. After seeing Jessica Biel in "The Illusionist" and being highly impressed with her in that movie I was wondering if she was truly developing into a gifted actress or if it was just the director and the material of "The Illusionist" that made her look better than she was. After watching her in NEXT I would say that yes, her performance in "The Illusionist" was a fluke. And Peter Falk is in the movie for all of five minutes. If you sneeze you'll miss him. The director Lee Tamahori knows how to direct action as anybody who's seen "Die Another Day" and "XXX: State Of The Union" can attest but the action sequences in NEXT all were familiar to me, as if I'd seen them before. Especially in the last 30 minutes that play like outtakes from '24'.
And the ending of NEXT…I sat there in my seat for maybe a minute not believing that they actually had ended the movie the way it did. I'm sure that the writers sat around congratulating themselves on how clever they were. I don't think they were clever at all. I think they wasted my time and the time of everybody at the showing I saw it with. I remember vividly seeing this in the theater while on vacation with my wife in Florida. I looked at some of the faces of the people leaving the theater with me and they were not happy faces at all. That ending, combined with the silly, sloppy premise of the story and an overwhelming number of plot holes as big as craters on The Moon made for a horrendously disappointing movie.

How Nexus Q works
By amol / April 20, 2013 / Posts
Nexus Q is actually quite well done. Plug it into the big screen/big speakers in your house and it brings the Internet there. Neat.
A screen by screen walkthrough
But as a device with roots in music, it doesn't use the screen for the UI. It uses the smartphone/tablet.
Now a remote is cool – but when they added video to the system, they should be using onscreen UI. They don't. There's just a circling dot pattern.
I think it could work well as your hi-fi actually. Use your phone to control it; it has an amp out for music. The TV stuff was an afterthought really.
But of course, I have no music in the Android world! There are the streaming services with apps for Android — that's the music we can use with Q.
But RIP, Q. It was killed before it was officially launched.


A local event next, and what a lovely one it was too- beautifully organised and a very well built course. An exciting first outing for Not Dun Anything, his first BE outing. A very impressive dressage of 21.8, lying 2nd after his dressage. He then followed this up with a lovely double clear, adding just a few time, as it was his first ever run. He finished in 7th place in a very competitive section.
Kingswalk Moonraker led his section also on a dressage also in the 20's, scoring 21.3. After an annoying mishap in the SJ he added 8 to his score but then flew XC to finish 5th in his section.


Whether you're out for an easy run to admire the endless parade of the city's finest dogs, or you're putting in some serious kilometres to train for your next half marathon, you'll meet your goal at Wellington Crescent. This iconic Winnipeg neighbourhood offers a beautiful riverside run under a canopy of trees.
For a 10km loop, start at the Assiniboine Park Zoo and head east along Wellington Crescent, or for a 5km run, begin your route at Sir John Franklin Park. Both loops are beautiful; the latter still gives you access to the prime part of the trail: the pedestrian pathway that curves along the Assiniboine River.
If you're starting at Assiniboine Park, head east on Wellington Crescent until you reach the Maryland Bridge. Cross over into Wolseley and follow Wolseley Avenue into Omand Park. Use the red pedestrian bridge at the southwest corner of the park to cross over the Assiniboine River. From here, head west along Wellington Crescent until you're back where you started.
For a 5km run, begin at Sir John Franklin Park and head east toward the Maryland Bridge. Once you've reached the bridge, turn back and follow Wellington Crescent west towards your starting point.
A morning run not only help you beat the heat during summer, but it also gives the nicest views that make either circuit that much more worthwhile. There are plenty of friendly runners and dog walkers on the trail, so whether you're with friends or training solo, you won't feel alone. The mature trees lining Wellington Crescent and the bridges crossing the Assiniboine River also make for a great photo op.
Wellington Crescent is a great place to start road running. It rolls through a scenic drive adjacent to the river, so there's plenty to keep your mind occupied and interested as you increase your mileage.
From early spring to late fall, Wellington Crescent is closed on Sundays and holidays to most motor vehicle traffic from 8am–8pm. This gives you a really peaceful run route in the heart of the city. (And it's also good to keep in mind in case you have to change up your transportation route on the way there). Better yet, enjoy the lack of cars and bike over to your run route instead.
Wireless headphones… game changer! They're awesome. No more sweaty cord tucked into your sports bra or shirt while you run.
If you're looking to add some variety to your workout, this route delivers. The crescent is packed with park benches to take your workout to the next level. Try adding step-ups, bench dips or push-ups into your running routine. Or, if you prefer, relax, just enjoy the scenery and use the benches to stretch post-workout.
Be a better runner: what's the deal with cross-training?
If you need to work on core and strength – many runners do – this is for you.
From a Tall Grass Prairie cinnamon bun to a full breakfast feast at Stella's on Sherbrook, the nearby Wolseley neighbourhood is packed with options. Nothing tastes quite as delicious as a well-deserved treat after a solid workout.
Hit a PR in breezy running must-haves.

Breads and cakes | Life's Conundrum - Eat to Live or Live to Eat?
We have experimented a bit with different non-wheat based flour combinations to make rotis. We have come to the realization that this is going to be an ever evolving process and we need to keep at it to get a combination that not only tastes great but is easy to make (we have had a few disasters along the way with the dough sticking and not being very easy to roll out). Our latest attempt was with chestnut flour as a core ingredient, as we have successfully used it to bake bread, cakes and cookies. The dough was relatively easy to work with and the rotis tasted good. Texture wise we think we are 90% there – just need to figure out how to get them softer to be on par with traditional rotis.
Place all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Make a well and add the oil to it – rub the oil into the flour mixture. Then add enough water to make a pliable dough ball – about a cup of water, little at a time. Make lime sized balls of the dough and roll into discs using a little chestnut flour to stop it from sticking – cook on both sides till lightly browned, brush with some ghee and serve hot.

Pershing Co. planners OK 240-megawatt solar farm despite some concern
Debra Reid
Nevada News Group
The proposed 240-megawatt solar farm from sPower would occupy about 2,154 acres of land four miles north of Lovelock and North Meridian Road.
LOVELOCK, Nev. — In a 4-1 vote Feb. 5, the Pershing County Regional Planning Commission recommended approval of a Special Use Permit with conditions for the county's second industrial solar farm north of Lovelock.
The Pershing County Commission next will consider the project at a future date to approve or deny the permit.
Back on Dec. 5, 2019, the planning commission rejected an earlier permit application for the same project "because of the lack of information," according to a staff report by Planning and Building Department Director James Evans.
This time, sPower Development Company, LLC delivered the details of the proposed 240-megawatt solar farm that would occupy about 2,154 acres of land zoned Agriculture-Mining-Recreation (AMR) four miles north of Lovelock and North Meridian Road.
The project includes 180 megawatts worth of battery storage to make solar power available for the grid even when sunlight is not available.
The sPower project appears to comply with county development codes, Evans said in his report.
The project site and surrounding land are "relatively rural and are a mix of vacant land and/or agricultural land," according to the report. "There is an existing subdivision along the northeast boundary of the project site with some development. There are several parcels to the west, south and southwest of the project site (that) are currently being farmed or have residential activity on them."
PROJECT CONCERNS
Planning Commissioner Carl Clinger was the lone vote against the special use permit due to the proposed solar farm's proximity to nearby homes, as well as concerns with heavy construction traffic likely to occur through downtown Lovelock as the project is built. Other residents also had concerns about traffic, as well as glare from the solar panels.
"I think, overall, he (Clinger) is in favor of solar," Evans said in an interview with the Lovelock Review-Miner. "It's the location, the proximity to nearby houses. He would have liked to see it a little farther away from houses."
Clinger confirmed he supports solar energy, but has many concerns about the sPower project.
"I … feel this site location has too many issues and should be relocated," he said in an email. "James was correct about my concern for the project being too close to housing. Also, there will be a considerable amount of time during the nine to 24 months construction period where up to 300 cars will be traveling through the center of Lovelock to go up North Meridian to the project site and back again each day."
Clinger said he also is concerned about sPower's plan to install solar panels on top of an existing natural gas line and to install energy storage batteries below an NV Energy power transmission line.
"Their plan shows them putting solar panels over the top of the natural gas line which requires them to pile drive pipes into the ground. They have not vetted their plan with the gas company," he explained. "Their plan also shows them putting their battery farm underneath the 345 Kv lines, nor have they discussed this with NV Energy."
Further, Clinger believes sPower will need more than the estimated 10 acre-feet of water per year to clean dust off the array and may need to truck water in from Reno — again, through downtown Lovelock.
"They seem very naive about the amount of dust in the Lovelock Valley, as they stated they may only have to clean the glass on the solar arrays once per year," he said.
JOBS, TAX REVENUE IMPACTS
Evans said the proposed solar farm is "consistent with the goals, policies and objectives of the Pershing County Master Plan." No housing or other development has been proposed for the site of the sPower project, he said.
Existing public road access must be maintained including the road to Trinity Canyon, a popular area for deer and chukar hunting, Evans said. Other county requirements include upgrades to other existing roads, an agreement with the county road department and a traffic control plan.
A glare analysis and remediation plan will be submitted by sPower, though company officials did describe a similar sPower solar farm it operates Colorado where glare isn't an issue.
"In theory, there shouldn't be much glare because the panels are black and they track the sun," Evans said. "The new technology is built to absorb the light instead of reflect it, and it's not supposed to create a whole lot of glare. They said there's a similar in size project right near the Denver airport. If there was an issue with glare, the FAA would never have let them install those panels that close to the airport. They are still going to do a glare study."
Native and non-native vegetation will be cleared, but the sPower site is not home to any endangered plants or animals and will not impact wildlife migration corridors, Evans said.
"It's all vacant, it's all sagebrush and dirt," he said. "It's not going to affect migratory routes of any deer or birds. The big benefit is property taxes."
Along with much-needed tax revenues, other benefits for the county would come in the form of temporary construction work, as well as a few permanent solar farm operation and maintenance jobs.
"In the beginning, during construction, there could be as many as 300 jobs," Evans said. "After construction, during operation, there might be two or three jobs. Most of the monitoring of the panels is done remotely out of Utah. If they get an error or a broken panel, they might need somebody to go out there."
If the project is permitted by the County Commission and state agencies, construction could start in late 2022 with completion sometime in 2023.
State agencies that will consider the project include the Nevada Public Utilities Commission, Nevada Department of Environmental Protection and the Nevada Division of Water Resources.
According to Evans' report, sPower has lease agreements with a dozen landowners, including Western Nevada Cattle Feeders LLC, Hellas Properties LLC and Phillips Land Properties LLC. Solar farm construction and operations will require no more than 120 acre-feet of water and that will be purchased from local, private landowners, according to sPower's SUP application.
Pershing County Water Conservation District officials had no objections to the sPower project since the solar farm will be located outside of the irrigation district's jurisdiction, Evans said.
Meanwhile, construction has already started on the previously approved Invenergy solar farm on 1,735 acres near Oreana, about 20 miles north of Lovelock. The 190-megawatt Lovelock Solar Energy project is scheduled for completion in late 2022.
Based in Salt Lake City, sPower is an independent power company that owns more than 150 renewable energy wind, solar and storage projects producing almost 2 gigawatts of power across the country. The proposed North Meridian project appears to be the first sPower project in Nevada.
In 2019, Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak signed state legislation mandating that 50 percent of the state's electricity be generated by carbon-free, renewable energy facilities such as wind, solar and water power by the year 2030 and 100 percent by the year 2050.

Elliot Minor set to play major dates - UK tour confirmed for September 2010
Posted: 13th July 2010
They play rock, they incorporate pop, they borrow from the world of classical and they've been together for a decade - a decade? 'Tis true - Elliot Minor chose My Space as their springboard, before winning a competition on said networking-site to play as support to McFly on their 'Greatest Hits Tour'. Soon after, they racked up a handful of Top 40 single successes before going independent, beefing-up their sound and releasing the all-grown-up album "Solaris" towards the end of 2009. They have obviously heard a few Muse albums in their time, but to be fair, they've written some songs rather than just opt to sound like every other 'screamo' band.
They will embark on a September tour, to follow up their July tour (they play Sheffield tomorrow night then Durham, Liverpool and Oxford - see below) and also in support of another single from the album, "I Believe" and further "Solaris"-type activity. They kick off in Norwich on 8th September and continue on to Nottingham (9th), York (10th), Manchester (11th), Huddersfield (15th), Newcastle (16th), Edinburgh (17th), Aberdeen (18th), Islington (23rd), Birmingham (24th), Dublin (25th) and finally Belfast (26th). Tickets are on sale now, priced at around £10 plus fees (even the London date!).
If you haven't heard them before, check out the official video to that new single and click below for tickets (don't forget the tail-end of their July tour).
