Abstract - Allium roseum leaves were found to be rich in polyphenols and flavonoids and had high antioxidant activity. Allium roseum leaves thermo-physical characterization shows that the increase in water activity and the decrease in temperature significantly augment the equilibrium water content of Allium roseum leaves. A significant difference between desorption and adsorption (hysteresis effect) was found at lower temperature (20°C) and it disappeared at higher temperatures. GAB and Peleg models were found to better describe the relationship between equilibrium moisture content, water activity and temperature. The isosteric heats of desorption and adsorption were determined from experimental sorption isotherms and then correlated with corresponding equilibrium moisture contents. Desorption isosteric heat decreased continuously with the increase of the equilibrium moisture content, and was always higher than adsorption heat. In this case and from a moisture content of 0.15 kg water/kg db, adsorption isosteric heat was constant and about 40.68 kJ/mol.
Keywords: Rosy garlic leaves / bioactive composition / sorption isotherms / modeling / isosteric heat of sorption.
Abstract - Seventy four Tunisian bread wheat accessions were characterized using seven morphological traits: spike color, spike shape, spike density, beak shape, beak length, glume shoulder shape, grain color and grain size. Accessions with white spike, tapering spike shape, lax spike density, moderately curved beak shape, long beak, slightly sloping glume shoulder shape, white yellow and small grain were dominant. Based on the Shannon–Weaver Diversity Index (H'), accessions showed a great morphological diversity in beak length and glume shoulder shape (H' = 0.82) illustrating a large diversity in this collections . Results showed that lowest values of H' were obtained in spike density (0.10), spike color (0.17), spike shape (0.23), grain size (0.42), beak shape (0.62) and grain color (0.62). This data revealed that morphological traits might be used for an effective characterization of Tunisian bread wheat diversity and also the need to conserve and safeguard genetic diversity of this crop.

Abstract - In Tunisian agriculture system, nitrogen (N) is the most important and used fertilizer for sustaining durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp durum) growth and improving yield. The aim of this study was to assess genotypic differences for N agronomic and physiologic efficiencies at three nitrogen levels (0, 75 and 150 kg N/ha). A set of four durum wheat genotypes was used and is constituted by two improved cultivars (Om Rabia and Khiar) and on two landraces (Bidi AP4 and Azizi AC2). A field trial was conducted under sub-humid climate conditions in northern Tunisia. A complete randomized block design with four replications was used. The results showed that increasing N up to 75 kg N/ha increased yield and its attributes of durum wheat. Increasing N up to 75 kg N/ha seems able to ensure the production potential of indigenous genotypes (Azizi and Bidi). On the contrary the improved varieties still respond to a greater nitrogen input. It is possible that improved genotypes require higher levels of nitrogen in order to fully express their genetic potential. In addition, we have showed that a significant genotypic variation in the N agronomic efficiency.
Keywords: durum wheat / N agronomic efficiency / N physiologic efficiency genetic variability.

Closed-circuit television (CCTV), also known as video surveillance, is the use of video cameras to transmit a signal to a specific place, on a limited set of monitors. It differs from broadcast television in that the signal is not openly transmitted, though it may employ point to point (P2P), point to multipoint (P2MP), or mesh wired or wireless links. Though almost all video cameras fit this definition, the term is most often applied to those used for surveillance in areas that may need monitoring such as bars, banks, casinos, schools, hotels, airports, hospitals, restaurants, military installations, convenience stores and other areas where security is needed. Videotelephony is seldom called "CCTV" but the use of video in distance education, where it is an important tool, is often so called.
Surveillance of the public using CCTV is common in many areas around the world. In recent years, the use of body worn video cameras has been introduced as a new form of surveillance. Video surveillance has generated significant debate about balancing its use with individuals' right to privacy even when in public.
In industrial plants, CCTV equipment may be used to observe parts of a process from a central control room, for example when the environment is not suitable for humans. CCTV systems may operate continuously or only as required to monitor a particular event. A more advanced form of CCTV, utilizing digital video recorders (DVRs), provides recording for possibly many years, with a variety of quality and performance options and extra features (such as motion detection and email alerts). More recently, decentralized IP cameras, some equipped with megapixel sensors, support recording directly to network-attached storage devices, or internal flash for completely stand-alone operation.
There are about 350 million surveillance cameras worldwide as of 2016. About 65% of these cameras are installed in Asia. The growth of CCTV has been slowing in recent years.

Q: Get average of hstore columns using activerecord + postgres I have a set of quiz results stored in a hstore column as scores per topic. i.e.
Maths => 65
Physics => 70

Music => 56

Is there a clean, idiomatic way (i.e. using Arel syntax) to calculate the average of each of these hstore groups? I'd like to find the average score in each topic for my students.

A: You can create a custom aggregate to average your hstore record structure for you. It's easy enough once you've worked through the example on the bottom of that page.
Longer term, you may find your life easier if you use relations to model structure when using a relational database.

Here is the final post in my four-part Rest series, originally published in Arkansas Baptist News.
A new year has arrived, bringing with it a slower pace of life. But to get here, I had to survive a typical fall in the Hibbard household. Every year the stretch between the end of October through the end of December is a very busy time for us. This year was no exception.
But right in the middle of the busyness, God reinforced His lesson on rest. Oh, He had already given me the idea. I had even journaled it months before. But, it wasn't until I had come to the end of a very rough week that He reminded me of one more truth He had taught me about rest.
Rest is not just relational, expected, and sacrificial. Rest is also total trust.
In all honesty, I had been trying to rest in the midst of the chaos. But, I did it my way. I allotted time to attend Christmas parties and enjoy the fellowship. I sacrificially set aside my todo list on multiple occasions, supposedly in the name of rest. But I forgot that all of these things must be bound together by a conscious focus on total obedience.
You see, rest is not just about coming up with ways to interact with others, to meet an expectation, or to sacrifice when an opportunity seems to arise. Rest is about walking in complete trust and obedience, allowing God to handle every single detail, every single time.
When I tried to do life, whether work or rest, my way, I fell apart. I failed. My todo list backed up and my relationships became strained. I neglected to fulfill obligations, and no amount of time set aside for rest seemed to rejuvenate me.
I did not find real rest again until I stepped back to see how I had failed to trust and obey the Lord. Rest returned only when I actively and consciously began to walk once again in total surrender.
Now we face a new year. If it moves even half as quickly as 2014 did, many of us will once again come to the end of it feeling harried and tired. But God offers the rest we need to make 2015 a year of complete abandon to Him. Complete obedience. Complete trust. And complete rest.
I am not one for New Year's resolutions, but I do hunger to make a new commitment this year. I hunger to live this year centered in the total rest of Christ.

GlobalData predicts smart home clarity for operators
The company says the ARM Cortex-M7 delivers double the computing and digital signal processing capabilities of current high-end ARM-based microcontrollers (MCUs), and has been designed for embedded applications in smart control systems and next-generation connected vehicles.
Noel Hurley, general manager of ARM's CPU group, said: "The addition of the Cortex-M7 processor to the Cortex-M series allows ARM and its partners to offer the most scalable and software-compatible solutions possible for the connected world.
"The versatility and new memory features of the Cortex-M7 enable more powerful, smarter and reliable microcontrollers that can be used across a multitude of embedded applications."
Amongst the CPU's listed features is its ability to deliver 2000 Coremarks at 400MHz in a 40LP process. It also supports 64-bit transfers for compatibility with large external memories and powerful peripheral devices.
Additionaly, the Cortex-M7 can more quickly process audio and image data and voice recognition, and also allows the migration of software compatibilities from existing Cortex-M setups, enabling system designers to reuse existing code while maintaining low development costs.
So far, Amtel, Freescale and ST Microelectronics have all been granted early licences for the processor.
Reza Kazerounian, senior vice president and general manager at Atmel's MCU business unit, commented: "We see the ARM Cortex-M7 addressing high-growth markets like IoT and wearables, as well as automotive and industrial applications that can leverage its performance and power efficiency."

The Power of Emeralds
History suggests that Emerald used to be the favorite gemstone of Cleopatra, the queen of Egypt. Shah Jahan, one of the most famous moguls of India loved emeralds so much that he had inscribed sacred texts into them and used them as talismans. The writings of Veda testify to Emerald as the "gem of good luck".
The benefits of wearing emerald:
Emerald used to be associated with Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. Emerald was powerful in protecting lovers from unfaithfulness. It depicted a loyal heart by glowing in a beautiful green color and if it wasn't, it would glow in a different lifeless color.
Since ancient times, there is evidence that suggests emerald has healing powers. In many languages, emerald was known to help eyesight when worn. Its healing powers are also associated with the cardiovascular system, the skeletal system, the adrenal glands, the intestinal system, and the kidneys and liver. This stone is believed to be a cleanser that prevents diseases and other forms of infection.

Oh dear, have I turned you into an internet nomad who moves from one site and project to another every few months??
I'm still impressed on how far you got. I think I wrote ~3000 words ultimately but they're on paper. Ought to type them really..
Yup. I was completely unlike that before. Dedicated, consistent follow-though was my middle name (and, boy, is that tough to fit into that little space on your driver's license :). That's why I had about five novels I'd been meaning to write one of these days….
If it weren't for all the semi-finished projects and and half-started-upon ideas around here, I would be surrounded by very darned little of anything.
Do type up your 3000 words (December is officially NaNoFiMo – National Novel Finishing Month – if you want to join in on the NaNoWriMo site). If you add and embellish a little as you type, you might have 4000 words by the time you're done.
As to my haiku – I write a lot of them; not because I'm any good at them, but because I can. When I'm willing to commit to a longer project, I sometimes try for a entire limerick. I'm considering working my way up to a sonnet, but that may just be too much for me.
One of my Works-Not-In-Progress, which will greatly benefit the reading public by never seeing the light of day, is a novel written entierly in haiku – conventionally formatted, but every sentence would have seventeen syllables and could stand independently as haiku.

Pen, Paint, and Pretzels (3Ps), Tufts' student theatre organization, will perform its fall show, "Eurydice," this weekend in Balch Arena Theater. The production, co-directed by senior Chopper Carter-Schelp and sophomore Rosa Stern Pait and stage managed by sophomore Laura Wolfe, moves the myth of Orpheus and his wife, Eurydice, out of its original ancient Greek setting and into a more contemporary context.
"Eurydice" is a one-act play written by Sarah Ruhl in 2003 that follows Eurydice's death and descent into the Underworld, where she is reunited with her deceased father, a figure not in the original Greek myth.
3Ps' production of "Eurydice" features a small cast of seven actors, but Stern Pait and Wolfe have been working hard to make the show a thoughtful reproduction of Ruhl's work. The show is the first one that Stern Pait has directed in her time at Tufts — she was originally credited as assistant director but has since taken on the full directorial role.
Since stepping into the role of director, Stern Pait has jumped at the chance to synthesize the show's original format with her own ideas for the production.
Stern Pait has risen to the occasion, embracing her directorial role with aplomb.
"It's been a really cool experience seeing … all of the different people who are involved and also what each of them do, [as well as] the resources we have available and all the limitations we have and how to figure out how to make the most of [them]," she said.
This production is not the first time Stern Pait and Wolfe have worked together. The duo was involved in the Bare Bodkin Theatre Company's production of "Fefu and Her Friends" last semester, which was performed at the Women's Center. After such an intimate venue, Wolfe noted that Balch represents a significant step up as it relates to her role as stage manager.
Stern Pait and Wolfe have been forced to contend with the show's limited budget and learning to maximize the return on their resources has been central to their development of the production.
As stage manager, Wolfe has had to deal with the show's budget constraints more than anyone else.
Despite these challenges, Stern Pait and Wolfe have greatly enjoyed working with the talented cast, noting its exceptional camaraderie.
Wolfe concurred, noting that her relationship with assistant stage manager Joanna Kleszczewski, a first-year, has represented the social nature of the cast and crew.
Stern Pait also highlighted the relationship between Wolfe and Kleszczewski.
In terms of the production itself, Stern Pait advises audience members to bring tissues.
"Eurydice" will be performed in Balch Arena Theater on Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. Tickets are available for free.


Hi am looking for a developer who is experienced and qualified with the AWS platform. As AWS works quite differently to standard cPanel hosting, I have found it difficult to navigate, although I really want to use it as much as possible for obvious reasons (if you love AWS you will know why!). I have a number of things I want to achieve in the short term.
2. Migrate or re-install a bulk email sending application from Dreamhost to AWS that already sends email via SES. The application is Sendy.
3. Migrate a simple 2 page HTML based website to S3 Bucket (with CloudFront/SSL) from Dreamhost. The issue is the JS based email forms (2) wont work with S3 so I need a reliable solution that works with AWS for web forms.
In the longer term I would like you to be available to service and deploy new applications on AWS as required. As AWS doesnt really offer support, I need an expert I can rely on the help me. Thanks.

Za druge pomene glej Korporal (razločitev)
Korporál je liturgični prtiček kvadratne oblike, ki se uporablja pri katoliški maši.

Korporal je kvadratne oblike in je pred uporabo po navadi zložen na tretjine po širini in po dolžini. Mašnik ali ministrant ga razgrne na oltarju in potem nanj odloži pateno ali ciborij s hostijami in kelih z vinom z malo vode.

Beseda »korporal« izvira iz latinske besede corpus = telo (corpus Christi'' = Kristusovo telo), saj na korporal duhovnik odloži posvečeno hostijo, za katero katoliki, pravoslavni in nekateri drugi kristjani verujejo, da je Kristusovo telo.

Executive training gains momentum
By Louisa Shepard
David Hammond was becoming increasingly frustrated with his job at the Coast Guard. Changes in the way his shore facilities division was managed were not going as quickly or smoothly as he had expected. After a particularly contentious meeting one day last year, he went directly to his desk and filled out an application for the National Defense University's (NDU) advanced management training program.
"In a blinding flash I realized that I was kind of crazy to put off learning these things, and that you have to educate yourself to help the organization in the end. Take the time, go learn and then come back and start the battle again," said Hammond, a senior program manager. "The program was a life-changing experience. It just opened my eyes."
Members of senior management throughout government are discovering that their eyes also need to be opened to smarter uses of information technology. As the need becomes more apparent, schools inside and outside government are expanding and starting training programs aimed at high-level federal managers.
Part of what is pushing these programs is recent legislation, such as the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996, the Government Performance and Results Act and the Federal Acquisition Reform Act. All are aimed at making government IT use and acquisition more effective and efficient.
In addition, economic pressures brought on by budget cuts are forcing managers to make better-informed decisions on the purchase of technology. And technology is ever-changing with the explosion of the Internet and the use of tools such as artificial intelligence and virtual reality. Policy, of course, plays into all of this as well.
"There is so much pressure today for senior executives to show a payoff from their investment and to show how IT helped them meet their goals and their mission," said Janey Nodeen, who graduated not only from NDU's advanced management program but also from the General Services Administration's Trail Boss and 1,000 by the Year 2000 executive training programs. "IT can make a huge difference and make a breakthrough."
Nodeen now owns Burke Consortium, a Springfield, Va., consulting firm that helps government agencies comply with Clinger-Cohen by assessing how well IT is aligned with their businesses.
While serving as deputy for acquisition and program executive officer for submarines in the Navy, Nodeen said she used what she learned in the training courses to "think long and hard about the mission and the business processes in the organization and apply technology." As a result, the strategy for acquiring a new attack submarine changed dramatically, resulting in a submarine that was less expensive and more capable, she said.
"The more that senior leaders go to courses, the more they will understand how to provide efficient and effective government back to the taxpayer," said Robert Elliot, a retired Navy captain who graduated from the NDU program.
"We're leveraging the technology so the money is spent wisely," said Elliot, now an IT program manager with Dell Computer Corp. "One of the fundamental tenets is to provide a link from technology to the business or the mission. It stresses that the technology should support the mission. That's a powerful linkage."
There is no standard program for training senior-level managers about how to better use IT or even a central source list of programs available.
"There is no one-size-fits-all [program] because people are from widely different backgrounds," said Glenn Sutton, the deputy chief information officer at the Office of Personnel Management. "There is not one standard way to do this. It's up to each agency to see what they need and what can be obtained."
Sutton serves as co-chairman of the education and training committee of the federal CIO Council, which is trying to create that standard. "We're trying to develop common road maps so everyone is not on their own," he said. By next year the council hopes to have a World Wide Web site that will list information on the courses available. Several programs are available now, and a few new ones are in the works.
Courses of Action
The most comprehensive programs are offered by the Information Resources Management College at NDU, Fort McNair, Washington, D.C. About 3,000 students attend the college each year, either through the advanced management program, the Chief Information Officer certificate program, the Defense Acquisition University or by taking elective courses.
"The bottom line is strategy," said Robert Childs, dean of faculty and academic programs at the IRM College. "The students have to look at information and information technology as key strategic resources."
The advanced management program, offered twice a year, is a 14-week, full-time course that draws students from throughout government and industry. It is equal to 15 hours of credit at three universities, or half a master's degree. Of the 50 students in each class, about 70 percent are from the Defense Department. About three-quarters of the students are civilians.
The courses teach students how to harness the power of IT to most effectively and efficiently reach their goals, Childs said. Most importantly, the courses teach students how to measure technology's performance.
One required course, for example, is Measuring Results of Organizational Performance. Other core courses include Transforming Work and Organizations, and Acquisition and Systems Development. All students go on a field study, usually at a major corporation, to see firsthand how IT management is used in the private sector.
In past years, many of the courses taught students simply how to use technology. "Now people know how to use the technology. Now we focus on using the tools technology makes available to probe much larger questions," said Dwight Toavs, a systems management professor.
For example, in a simulation course, the students work in teams to develop software, each taking on a management role. Computer technology makes it possible to simulate their work, implement their management decisions and produce detailed results, making it possible to understand the long-term impact of their decisions. "Now it's not just 'What button do I push?' but 'How do I simulate hiring extra software managers?' " Toavs said.
Advanced management program students can earn their CIO certificate through electives, but the university also offers a separate CIO program, which is eight weeks long and can be completed over four years. After Clinger-Cohen passed, DOD designated NDU as its primary CIO school. The program covers the 10 "core competencies," as identified by the federal CIO Council, necessary for the CIO certificate. Students also can earn their 1,000 by the Year 2000 graduate certificate, one of several IT training programs and seminars at GSA, through elective courses.
Although run by DOD, NDU courses cover topics that apply to industry and to other government agencies. "The language is different; the principles are identical," the Coast Guard's Hammond said.
The advanced management training program gave him the decision-making skills he needed by showing him the best business practices developed in the private sector, he said. "Now I have the tools to work at a strategic level that I didn't have before," he said. "That's what changed my perspective. I could see how I could accomplish those goals."
For Debbie Loud-on, one of the most important lessons she learned was methods of measuring performance, especially in different organizations.
"Everything is based on performance," said Loudon, a management analyst at the National Imagery and Mapping Agency. "There wasn't anything that pulled that together for me before, how that needed to be done or why." As a result, she is assessing her programs to align them with the agency's strategic goals.
Loudon, like many of the students at NDU, simultaneously earned her 1,000 by the Year 2000 certificate.
The 1,000 by the Year 2000 program provides a graduate certificate in information resources management. The aim is to prepare leaders by teaching them how to use technology more effectively to deliver services. The program name comes from GSA's goal of graduating 1,000 students by the Year 2000.
The certificate program is a cooperative effort between academia and government. Six mandatory courses offered by 29 universities are open to federal employees, who first must be accepted into the universities' master's programs. Six of the universities offer courses online, but generally students attend on campus. Since the program's start in 1990, 589 have graduated.
In contrast to the academic-oriented 1,000 by the Year 2000 program, the Trail Boss program, started in 1987, is an intense two-week program, offered twice a year, with 20 to 25 students in each session.
The program is designed to teach managers how to take charge of projects, make them accountable and able to best direct their IT management teams. Seminars address topics such as performance measures, business process re-engineering, capital planning, program management and leadership, and IT best practices.
"We take people buried in organizations and give them a big-picture view," said Richard Wolfe, the Trail Boss program manager. In addition, there is a Trail Boss Roundup, which is a week of seminars offered once a year that brings current students and former graduates together. So far more than 1,200 people have graduated from the program.
Emory Miller, now director of GSA's IT professional development, became a trail boss in 1990 when he was with the Internal Revenue Service. The course not only opened his eyes to new possibilities but also created a network he still relies on, he said. "It helped me better understand how to do my job," Miller said.
Other organizations are picking up on the demand for IT management training, in some cases specifically targeting CIOs.
The federal CIO Council is developing a virtual CIO University that will address the 10 core competencies by drawing on the resources of six universities. Students will be drawn half from the federal government and half from private industry, Miller said. Classes will begin in 1999.
The Office of Management and Budget's 30-year-old Federal Executive Institute, Charlottesville, Va., this month is adding a course to its 14-week flagship Leadership for a Democratic Society program. Called Managing Information Technology as a Strategic Program Asset, the course is aimed at teaching senior-level managers how to best leverage IT.
"There seemed to be an overwhelming need [to address the] management needs of information technology," said Robert McMahon, a senior faculty member who is also in the Senior Executive Service. There is definitely an interest: Applicants must wait more than a year to get into the program, which is offered 10 times a year, with 70 to 75 in each class.
The Graduate School at the Agriculture Department offers several courses, ranging from one to three days, including the Chief Information Officer, Implementing the Clinger-Cohen Act, and IT Performance-Based and Results-Based Management. "We try to stay on top of what the issues are and then develop courses to address those issues," said Deborah Smith, director of communications.
"Any manager needs to understand how technology can and can't be used to further their program objectives," said Anne Reed, chairman of the USDA Graduate School's board of directors. "There is still a gap."
The University of Virginia also has recognized the training need. This fall its Northern Virginia Center is offering a new Technology Leadership Certificate. Designed for completion in a year, the program consists of six courses, each 10 weeks long, three hours a week.
In 2000, the university plans to offer a course designed specifically for CIOs and chief executive officers.
So where will these courses lead the leaders in government?
"We can't make the necessary changes without technology. I don't see how we can go into the future, providing quicker, better, faster services with detrimental budgets, with the same level of service, without information technology to enable that," the Coast Guard's Hammond said. "I learned about that, and I understand how hard it is going to be."

Q: Trying to remove Chess.app using terminal The title says it all. Can I use sudo rm -r or sudo rm -f?

A: There seem to be several questions hidden in your post:

*

Solar power systems need to installed in different outdoor locations, such as on roofs and open land. Effective weather resistance is thus an important factor when selecting a mounting system in the solar industry. The use of materials such as stainless steel and aluminium ensures both weather resistance and a long service life. MÜPRO offers intelligent solutions for the solar industry.
Our solar power system products can be used to mount panels in any type of installation location, such as on pitched roofs using roof anchors, on corrugated metal roofs using special corrugated sheet fasteners, on metal folding seam roofs using the corresponding metal roofing clamps, or on flat roofs. Different types of photovoltaic panels or solar collectors can be fastened in place with anchors that correspond to the thickness of the material. Our MPC support channel system with special surface treatment or our aluminium channels are eminently suitable for constructing the supporting structure and providing an simple, secure, almost maintenance-free installation.


During the summer our Awana clubs and children's choirs take a break. Summer Bible Clubs provide exciting opportunities for children to be under the training of God's Word. Their times are enriched by Bible lessons, games, and crafts. When the weather is nice, they are able to play outside for part of the time.
The Summer Clubs are divided up according to the Awana club each child participated in during the school year.
If you would like to volunteer or need more information, please call the Church Office, 540-366-2431 ext. 148, or e-mail Mandy Highberger, Children's Ministry Director.

Surviving in hot weather and cold weather are two completely different processes. The bottom line is that vans have a lot of space and material constraints that make them less able to handle the temperature extremes that houses can. Insulating your van for handling cold weather in many ways makes it less comfortable in the heat.
When it comes to preventing heat inside a vehicle, it is helpful to understand the three types of heat transfer and how they relate.
In a van, direct sunlight radiation through windows will warm up the car more quickly than any other process. Reducing this will drastically reduce how quickly your van heats up.
Infrared rays from the sun (radiant heat) pass through the windows, and can be reflected right back out. Shiny materials like aluminum, Reflectix, or Infrastop, like a mirror, will reflect the heat.
Reflective windshield covers can be bought online and will make a big difference in the amount of heat that enters the vehicle. For smaller side windows, a roll of Reflectix, or Infrastop can be cut to size and placed over the window when parked.
Custom window covers can be created by using Reflectix on one side, carpeting or cloth on the other, and a little bit of insulation batting in-between. This design allows for the shiny side to be facing out in the summer, and the reverse effect during the winter (reflecting interior heat back in). Window covers can be held up using Velcro, snaps, buttons, ties or simple press-fit.
This is disappointingly easy. For hot weather, in most cases you don't want to have an insulated van. There is a bit of misinformation perpetuated around the 'net here. And lots of unnecessarily complex air gaps and layers of multiple materials trying to fight basic rules of thermodynamics.
Insulation is like wrapping a sleeping bag around your van. If it's hot out, the last thing you want is a sleeping bag that you can't get out of.
The function of standard insulation is to slow the transfer of heat. With insulation, the van takes longer reach the ambient temperature. If it's 90° outside, and your van is 70°, it might take an hour two to reach the outside temperature. So while your van might be more comfortable at 10am, it's still going to get hot by early afternoon. There's no way around this other than adding significantly more insulation (6-12″ thick like in a house). Adding insulation in a van is just fighting for an hour or two of mid-day comfort. If it's hot outside, then eventually it will be hot inside the van.
The downside to this is that when it is more critical to have a cool van- for sleeping- it takes longer to cool down. If your van is 90° inside, then as the outside temp reaches 70°, it will take longer to cool down.
This isn't counting all of the heat sources in the van. Your body puts out heat. Your fridge, computer and power brick put out heat as well. If you're cooking: heat. So you now have more heat in the van than outside, and it's being trapped in by insulation. There's also heat stored in the thermal mass of all the stuff in the van. If you have a jug of water that has heated up during the day, it's going to be releasing that heat over the course of the night.
These problems are all exasperated if you're using solar power on the roof. Rooftop solar means that to charge your batteries you will need to park the van in the sun. This will make the van hotter than the ambient temperature, like a solar oven. If it's 85° outside, it will be 95° inside the van parked in the sun. The insulation will reduce this effect a little, but not enough to make a difference. You might hear the argument that "the panels will shade the van". Not true. They shade part of the van. Even if you have 1000W of solar panels covering the whole roof, other side/s will be soaking up all that glorious sun heat. Another thing to note is that solar panels trap a little of the heat that is radiating off the roof of your van if it's hotter than the ambient temperature. So the "roof is shaded" helps a bit, but definitely not more than parking the whole van under the shade with no panels. It's similar to the difference between you wearing a wide brimmed hat in the sun and you standing in the shade.
Keep in mind that this doesn't mean you shouldn't insulate your van. With good ventilation, you can mitigate most of the effects of the heat buildup. It just means that insulation isn't helping your van in the heat and should only be done if you are planning on lots of cold weather.
What about radiant barriers (Reflectix) in the walls?
Preface: this is based on some conjecture on my part, so take it with a grain of salt. But let me walk you through why I think using Reflectix in the walls is a losing battle. The ultimate purpose of this material is to reflect radiant heat outside to keep it from getting in. There are a few issues with this.
On a practical note, Reflectix is hard to install because you need an air gap with minimal surfaces touching the reflective (hot) side. This means that you must essentially build a box within your van that's not touching the hot outer walls. Any time you attach Reflectix to an outer wall, you are creating a thermal bridge and are you reducing the effectiveness of the barrier. You can use materials like foam that reduce this thermal bridging, but the effect is still there. This makes it hard to attach household things to the walls of your van. To get the rated R-value on HVAC installations, Reflectix is wrapped on top of a series plastic standoffs that are attached to the ductwork which, consequently, is time consuming and rarely done properly in household installs.
The radiant heat you are blocking is coming from your van walls. The walls are heating from the sun and outside environment. Then they are radiating heat into the air gap between the van wall and the insulation. Then your Reflectix bounces that heat right back into the van walls. The radiant energy doesn't magically just disappear once it's been reflected. You now heating your van walls from both sides and heating up the air in between the two. Air doesn't hold much heat, so the net gain of Reflectix is still positive, but not nearly as much as if that heat wasn't trapped by the exterior van walls.
Adding a radiant barrier is simultaneously adding a vapor barrier. Your van walls aren't breathable and Reflectix isn't either. Stacking these vapor barriers is bad practice because if moisture gets in between the two- which it inevitably will- it won't get back out easily. It will be trapped in the warm air in between the barriers and you'll develop a mold problem sooner than later.
In summary, radiant barriers are minimally effective and take a ton of work with some downsides. Standard insulation will hold your body heat and the hot van interior in more, especially if it's sitting in the sun. The most effective way to be comfortable at night in hot weather is to be able to dissipate the interior heat quicker which is counter to what insulation does.
A surprisingly effective method of insulating your vehicle against the heat is by using proper floor insulation. Due to convection and radiation, hot air will transfer through the floor from the engine and exhaust during driving. This can also happen if you are parked above a hot surface like pavement.
The main goal is to insulate the floor well against conduction. This uses the same techniques and materials as you would for walls in the cold, such as foam with a high R-value. For more info on materials check out this article.
If you're feeling ambitious and think you'll be driving a lot, you can add heat shielding material on the floor of your van to reduce heat transfer from the exhaust and engine. More effectively, you can purchase heat shielding for your muffler and exhaust.
Advanced tip: an inexpensive laser pointing thermometer can be purchased to determine which areas of your van are transferring the most heat in. This can help you determine which spots need more insulation, or which areas of the vehicle require the most focus.
Appropriate airflow makes a big difference in the comfort of your van. To make airflow work at least two openings are recommended: one for air intake and one to pull air through. The further away you place these openings, the more airflow you will get throughout the vehicle.
An example of poor airflow would be having a vent fan in the cab (above the driver seat) paired with opening the driver's window. Air will flow between the two but you will not get fresh air in the back of the vehicle.
If you have a vent fan in the cab area and open the back windows, you will get air moving through the majority of the van. To get the most airflow, consider opening different doors and windows throughout the day. Depending on where you reside, bugs may become a major factor in your ventilation flexibility. Options such as creating custom window screens or purchasing large bug nets for the side and back doors are necessary to stay comfortable.
If you are concerned about installing a roof fan, smaller portable fans can be purchased that run off batteries, however they will not be as effective as a full roof fan.
The roof of your van is going to absorb a lot of heat throughout the day. Placing white plywood or other reflective material above the roof will reduce the amount of heat that can get inside.
If you park in one place for extended periods of time, consider hanging an awning or tarp above your vehicle as a semi-permeant fixture. Being able to park your vehicle in the shade will make a big difference in the amount of heat that reaches the van.
Attaching an awning to the roof-rack or side of your vehicle will give you a shaded area to hang out in the heat. We installed an awning so we could sit outside in the rain, but have found it to be much more useful in hot weather.
As van dwellers, we recommend following the weather for maximum comfort. If possible, head north during the summer, or to a higher altitude. Try to park in shade and face north if possible. This will give you the least amount of direct sunlight on your large windows.
Spend the day somewhere cold like shopping malls, libraries or museums. Limit activities inside the van such as cooking.
It may sound counter-intuitive, but on hot nights it is often more comfortable to sleep outside. We spend a lot of our time on campground or BLM land and keep sleeping bags and a small backpacking tent in the van. We've found thatsleeping in a tent is more comfortable than inside the van if we're caught in a heat wave.
You may be asking why no one has ever installed an air conditioner in their van. The truth is, people have. It is possible to install an air conditioner, but it is not practical unless you have a generator or shore power. An air conditioner takes an enormous amount of power to run.
With solar power, you can run an air conditioner but it would need so many solar panels and batteries that it is not practical for most people. This van dweller was able to do it with 1000W of panels, 2000W inverter and 780 ah of battery. These things get pretty pricey and bulky, but for those building a sprinter it isn't out of the picture.
Swamp coolers work by evaporating water with a fan that creates a cool airflow. Because of the evaporation process they do not work in humid environments. Additionally, they require a decent amount of power to run the fan and a water source. DIY swamp coolers that you see online do not work adequately in small spaces because of how quickly the air gets saturated with moisture and the lack of effective evaporation surface they are usually built with. For these reasons, it is easier to employ the other cooling techniques found in this article.
I think the Reflectix debate can be cleared up a little bit if people remember that radiant heat is also known as infrared light.
I disagree with the claim an Ac can not be run cheaply in a van.i have sportsman 2200 invertor generator that powers a 5000btu window Ac I have installed in back window. I can park at night and have the inside of the van in low 70s 1 gallon of gas gets me almost 12 hours cold breeze at night without any insulation. During the day with reflection in Windows and parking in shade with no insulation I can get 6 or 7hrs of cold Ac. I use about a gallon and half a day if I don't go out after work at the most if its 90or hotter. I have been living in my 2001e350 super duty passenger van for 3 weeks and the last 3 weeks has been in 90s . I am considering putting reflection on top of roof for even more reflective power.
With a generator, all bets are off! I definitely agree with your point- if you are able to use a generator, then AC is very reasonable and relatively inexpensive. For various reasons, most van dwellers choose to shy away from a generator setup but are still looking for a way to run AC, which is what our article is focusing more on.
This article confirmed things I was already thinking, but no other article I have read had spoken about. Thank you!
Informative article. That is why if you are doing extended traveling or van living you should stay away from vans that have too many windows (like VW buses and conversion vans) unless you are planning on just being in mild weather. Glass is where you will gain and lose heat the quickest and not much you can do to insulate it. In most U.S. States it is illegal to paint glass windows in a vehicle (blocks light and view, would still pass heat anyway) so you are limited to maybe vinyl wrapping the exterior glass (the kind that has tiny holes and you can see out but not in). then you can add window tint on the inside to cut UV rays coming in. Then you would have to use curtains with reflective backing to try to reflect back the heat coming in. And then like some conversion vans, you could build your interior panels and partitions as desired and not match the window openings in the body (bad design in my opinion) and maybe add some insulation behind the glass but will never be as good as a properly insulated cargo van with roof vent. If you get a broken window would be a pain to replace as well since access would be limited. You can insulate well your cargo area to live in, but remember your driving area does not have that much insulation from the factory. You can use the mentioned window covers, and then a heavy curtain between the cab and the cargo section. Something I have tried and works if you are parked for a certain period, is an awning that overlaps part or entirely your roof, effectively becoming the first layer of protection to eliminate UV rays hitting your roof although takes time to set up and take down. Now if you have solar panels, you can't cover those… If you will be in extreme weather like AZ in the summer (I know I live here) or Northern States in the winter you will definitely need mechanical systems like A/C and heating to cope. How to power and which type, that is what you have to decide.
They do make what I call "portable carports" – a canopy/tent for vehicles. I think they're used more in farmers' markets and roadside stands, but would work well for vehicles – depending on height. I would think it would work better than reflectix – which I think are more appropriate for the outside of the vehicle.
Great info, but I do have one question – In cold climates, insulation will help you keep warm. In warm climates, not having insulation is your best bet to stay cool. So what do you do if you want to travel with the van in both climates?
Good article addressing heat. My wife and I are trying to figure out what we want to do about insulating.
Very interesting article. I have a question if you put the refectix on the inside of the interior panel ( which you remove to get to the inside metal of the van} would that stop the condensation and also act as insulation in the winter ? If you installed a diesel heater and left that on all night would that be a more effective way of staying warm on cold nights?
For the Reflectix: You are certainly welcome to install Reflectix as a vapor barrier to try to prevent condensation. If the install is good, then it does seal against moisture. The issue with this is that in the real world, a complete vapor seal is tough to do in a vehicle. A vehicle has lots of holes and moving parts and is subject to abuse on the road. And if/when water does happen to get behind the Reflectix for whatever reason, it is now trapped on the wrong side of the vapor barrier. This can lead to even more problems with mold and such. We see many people try using Reflectix as a vapor barrier but few installs last for very long before they need to be pulled apart and repaired or dried out.
If there is an air gap between the Reflectix and the van interior, it does function as insulation in the winter. It only reflects back heat that is produced in the van, so it doesn't help a whole lot without a heat source. Otherwise you're trying to use your body to heat the entire inside of the van. Your body will do much better heating up a small space like a jacket or sleeping bag.
We live in Greece and would like to use the van in the Summer where the temperature is around 95 degrees.But we also like to ski in the Winter in northern Europe where it is cold.Is it better to insulate the van or not?
It's easier to warm up than it is to cool down. Heavy insulation can cause problems in the summer where you can't cool the van down enough to sleep. It's also easier to manage moisture in varying climates as far as location of the vapor barrier. In the winter, you can accommodate with a heater and lots of blankets. Some people still prefer insulation, but for dealing with both climates, our base recommendation is to not insulate.
Thank you very much for your reply Ian!
So you've convinced me NOT to insulate (TX). My question is what do I do then about a vapor barrier – do I need one at all?
Would my walls (possibly wood but also maybe ACP panels) go right up against the vans metal ribs with nothing behind it? Thanks for all your help!
So are you saying that if you are going to primarily be in warm-weather locations, insulation shouldn't be put into the van?

Air Commodore Alfred Cecil Critchley,  (23 February 1890 – 9 February 1963) was a military commander, entrepreneur and politician in the United Kingdom. He served as a Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) from 1934 to 1935.

Early life and military career
Critchley was born in Calgary, Northwest Territories (now Alberta), Canada in 1890 and brought to England at the age of nine and attended St Bees School in Cumberland. . His first career was a military one, initially in Lord Strathcona's Horse, a Canadian military regiment and, towards the end of the First World War, in the Royal Flying Corps (RFC). He was seconded to the RFC on 4 March 1918 with the temporary rank of brigadier general at the age of only 28. Remaining in the RFC and then Royal Air Force to the end of the war, Critchley played a senior role in organising training, commanding the RFC and then RAF's Cadet Brigade. By the end of the war he had become the youngest brigadier general in the British Imperial forces and had married Maryon Galt, the cousin of the wife of the press baron Sir Max Aitken, later Lord Beaverbrook.

Business and politics
After the war Critchley involved himself in a number of business ventures in Central America before returning to the UK where he became a director of Associated Portland Cement. In 1926 he helped form the private company, the Greyhound Racing Association (GRA). Under the auspices of this company he became a significant sporting entrepreneur in the UK. The company introduced greyhound racing to the UK in Belle Vue, Manchester in 1926. The success of this initial trial led the company to purchase the White City Stadium in London. The GRA subsequently built both the Harringay Stadium and Harringay Arena.

He was married for a second time in London to Miss Joan Foster of Mount Street, London on 22 December 1927.

Critchley contested the 1929 general election as a Conservative in the Manchester Gorton constituency, a safe seat for the Labour Party where he was heavily defeated.

In February 1931, he contested the Islington East by-election as a candidate for the Empire Free Trade Crusade and the United Empire Party, which both sought to make the British Empire a free trade bloc. The Empire Crusade had won the Paddington South by-election in October 1930, and hoped to repeat its success. Critchley came second, with 27.2% of the votes, and the Empire Crusade never won another seat.

He rejoined the Conservative Party, and won the Twickenham by-election on 22 June 1934.  Nevertheless, he did not contest the 1935 general election.

He was a director general of the British Overseas Airways Corporation from 1943 to 1946.

In 1953 he suffered a severe infection which caused him to go blind. In 1954 he was involved in the publishing deals of Robert Maxwell.

Sport
In addition to his interest in greyhound racing, Critchley was a keen sportsman, and was a leading amateur golfer. He also took part in bobsleigh events with his son John Galt Critchley, who went on to claim a silver medal at the FIBT World Championships 1939.

When I was first introduced to cargo pants by a friend, I found them to be annoying but at the same time I was delighted. I was annoyed because cargo pants make people wonder what you are carrying in the different pockets. But my delight was that I would carry things like my cellphone, wallet, multi-tool and edc flashlight in the side pockets.
Cargo pants are great for wearing especially if you are a person who loves traveling a lot. They allow you stuff several items that you might need while on the plane without opening your luggage. Most of the time, people do confuse cargo pants with tactical or BDU pants. These two have similarities but differ from one another.
The best tactical pants are more suited for survival and in tough conditions, while cargo pants can be worn like any other pant but not to the office. There are different types of cargo and tactical pants on the market and it all depends on your needs. To properly differentiate between the two, here are some factors to look at.
Activity – cargo pants can be seen in some workplaces. Also, they can be worn casually and most of the time they are utilized by EMS students. On the other hand, tactical pants are built for the military, police and other law makers. So, they are best suited for the wild and tough conditions.
Numbers of pockets – both the cargo pants and tactical pants have several pockets. But the tactical pants have slightly more pockets for storing different items like ammos, and pistol. Cargo pants normally have front, back and side pockets.
Design – these two types of pants also vary in design. Tactical pants are available in camouflage designs while cargo pants are made in dark navy and black colors. Also, the various pockets that tactical pants have make them to look weird while cargo pants has limited pockets.
Material – tactical pants are made with heavy and more durable materials than cargo pants. Actually, some cargo pants are made of nylon which can withstand things like rain. Thus, tactical pants are more durable than cargo pants.
Sizes of pants – most of the cargo pants are available in just a few sizes. Also, they are fitting and not oversize. Tactical pants are usually available in different sizes and most of the pants are loose fitting. From the knees going up, tactical pants are loose while from the knees going down, they are slim to allow being tucked in the tactical boots.
Cost – since tactical pants come with several pockets, have zippers and are made of durable materials, they tend to be more costly than cargo pants. This might vary depending on the brand. Consider looking at brands like 5.11 for both quality cargo and tactical pants.
If you're an EMS student or just want to wear comfortable and sturdy pants, then the cargo pants are suitable for you. They have a number of pockets where you can keep your edc items as you travel from one destination to another. Alternatively, the tactical pants are meant for outdoor enthusiasts or the military. These are durably made to withstand the toughness of the wild. Choose pants that fit you and have the number of pockets that will serve your different needs.

Australia's original sin
Fatima Measham
It's entirely possible that reconfiguring our relationship with First Nations peoples, even centralising it, would give us the language and impetus to reconfigure everything else, including the way we resolve conflict, think about the environment, and make decisions about vulnerable members of society.
Aboriginal voices in 'the good country'
Andrew Hamilton
Turnbull has been widely criticised for refusing a recommendation by the Referendum Council to enshrine a national Indigenous representative council, saying it was 'contrary to the principles of equality and citizenship'. A recent book provides a rich perspective for reflecting on his decision.
Reform constitution to give a voice to all
The common thread through all of these stories is the need to have a mature conversation about the ways in which we can afford a meaningful voice to our communities. If human rights are the benchmark, then rights must be afforded to all. It is not right that those with the least power must continue to compromise.
Left fails to confront S.44's racist legacy
It seemed enough for many 'progressives' that the majority of the people who had fallen by the dual citizenship wayside were Coalition members, with the added bonus of Malcolm Roberts. I began to wonder why what is essentially an issue of racism and discrimination was not considered a priority for those who state they believe in social justice.
Same sex marriage and freedom of religion
Wednesday will be a day of celebration for those wanting a 'Yes' vote. It should also be a day when we Australians recommit ourselves to respect for all citizens, especially those whose beliefs differ from our own. Our politicians led us into this divisive campaign. Now they need to lead us out of it.
Why does citizenship matter?
Instead of assuming dual citizens risk becoming traitors unless they rescind their citizenship, we should rather ask questions about the other third parties to whom MPs are beholden: donors , lobbyists, consultants, businesspeople and others keen to influence the political process.
Turnbull misses opportunity to progress Aboriginal rights
Anastasia Moore
Why go to the trouble of gathering all the great minds to discuss the issue of recognition, giving hope to a great many people, only to determine the idea 'too ambitious'? What right does Turnbull have to predetermine what Australians will or won't accept? This question could be put to Australians in a referendum.
It's always Happy Death Day in Canberra now
Turnbull's response to the eligibility crisis showcased the mixture of bluster and incompetence that's become characteristic of this government. Like Michaela Cash's attempts to link Shorten with union corruption, his declaration that the court would rule in favour of Joyce saw strategy and common sense give way to short term manoeuvring.
Different country, different culture (or how different legal systems view deal-making)
In the 16th century it was the Dominican friars like Vitoria, Las Casas and Montesino in Salamanca who confronted the state and challenged public opinion about the rights of the indigenous peoples in Spain's newly colonised lands. Not even the most nostalgic and forgiving Jesuit would opine that the modern practitioners of Morality with a capital M challenging the powers of the market and the state would be found in a modern monastery.
Inside Catalonia's cypherpunk referendum
Marta Poblet Balcell
Activism advocating widespread use of encryption and privacy-enhancing technologies to bring political change in Catalonia is perhaps a sign of emerging trends on the internet: the horizontal, decentralised internet that Vint Cerf and Tim Berners-Lee, inventors of its core technologies, initially envisioned and are currently demanding.
Letter from Yangon
Peta Fresco
Much has been reported on the plight of the Rohingya in Rakhine state in Myanmar's west, where violence has seen more than 400,000 Rohingya Muslims cross into Bangladesh. Elsewhere in the country, local villagers continue to suffer the effects of a four cuts strategy, and are targeted if they are suspected of helping ethnic armies. In the country's north, aid has been slow to reach 20,000 Kachin villagers living in former gambling dens and warehouses along the China border.
Church democracy and the 2020 Plenary Council
There is a lot of big talk by Australian Catholic church leaders about the forthcoming 2020 Plenary Council, but remarkable vagueness about its likely shape. Now that the first of the consultation sessions about the council has occurred in Sydney, resolving the nature of the event becomes a matter of some urgency. Otherwise the council runs the risk of eventually becoming a huge disappointment.

I'm trying to export a flag to VRML looking natural ie. hanging down. Figured out how to use motion designer to animate flag in Layout but how to make it keep that gravity- pulled shape when I export to VRML97.
If you have an image mapped to the flag you will also need to bake the surface.
First bake the surface and then save transformed.
That was just what the doctor ordered! Thanks to you both.


We have a screen shot of a web search about beets. Notice the color of the beets? They are pictures of red beets only. But beets come in other colors, like purple, orange-yellow (golden beets), yellow, and white varities.
The website The World's Healthiest Foods state that about 15% of all U.S. adults experience beeturia or a reddening of the urine after eating beets.
They note that this reddening of the urine is not considered harmful, but may be a possible indicator of the need for a visit to the doctor, as this reddening of the urine can be an indicator of iron deficiency, iron excess, or specific problems with iron metabolism (WHFoods).
As we noted at the on start of the article there are different varieties of beets, that range in different colors. Each beet variety with its color provides different benefits from other bets of a different color.
Beets contain betaine, the same substance that is used in certain treatments of depression. It also contains trytophan, which relaxes the mind and creates a sense of well-being, similar to that of dark chocolate.
Golden beets are a good source of potassium and calcium. They also contain vitamin-C which helps prevent fatty build-up and cirrhosis of the liver, among other things.
The crimson-red color of the red beet is due to betalain pigments, such as betanin and betacyanin. Yellow beets are rich in ß-xanthin pigment.
The Chiogga beet (as seen in the photo here to the left – bottom left side) or candy cane variety has alternative red and white concentric whorls on the inside of the beet.
Now for our featured recipe, using golden beets, and here is what you will need.
Mix all ingredients above in a small mason jar, cover with lid and shake until combined, set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl add dressing. Next add prepared vegetables and cilantro. Mix until well coated. Spoon sald into a serving bowl and garnish with cilantro (optional).
Plate and serve by itself, or with your favorite meat dish.
