Home energy saving kits are now available to borrow at all Dublin City Public Libraries.
The Home Energy Saving Kits have been developed by Dublin's energy agency Codema and contain six practical tools to help the public save energy at home. The items in the toolkits address three key areas of energy use in the home - space heating, hot water and electricity consumption - and can help identify common problems such as lack of insulation, poor ventilation and the appliances in the home that might be driving up electricity bills.

While looking at the battery in the Mini I made a small discovery; the original toolkit which apparently lives alongside the battery in the boot. I'd no idea this was here and was amused to note it contains the locking wheel nut.
It's only taken me two and a half years to find this. I'd purchased a replacement locking wheel nut from the main dealer when I got the car, assuming it to be absent!

Creating Interactive Data Visualizations for the Web with the JavaScript InfoVis Toolkit 2.0
The Web has never been more open to everyone. Open Data services exist in almost every web application: from social networking apps to governmental pages and the news, all this data can be instantly accessed by exposed APIs. However, although most of this data is offered in a simple interchange format, its structures are quite complex, ranging from complex networks to time-based information, hierarchical data or heavy graphs. Displaying this data in a manner that enables the viewer to gain some insight can be challenging, especially if we aim at providing some interaction and doing it in a cross-browser/cross-device manner. The JavaScript InfoVis Toolkit creates interactive data visualizations for the Web. It's based solely on Web Standards, leveraging the power of native browser technologies to provide insights on complex data. In this talk you will learn about the JavaScript InfoVis Toolkit and how it can help you create advanced data visualizations for the Web.

My Stuff; Minus the 5d Mark II and 24-70 that I took this picture with. Also missing the 70-200 which is hanging out in the den I think.
Young activists from across the Pacific took part in a five-day workshop based around The Changemakers: A young activist's toolkit for ending violence against women and girls in Suva, Fiji in September.
The workshop, held by the International Planned Parenthood Federation in partnership with UN Women, is aimed at helping young peer-educators facilitate discussions on gender equality, violence against women, health relationships and positive activism in their families and communities.

Location: Kinglake
Date: 2009AUG04
Description:
Kinglake is now a favourite stop off for cyclists. It wasn't always so. The road down to St. Andrews wasn't always sealed. I know I used to ride it. On the day of Black Saturday a group of riders were making their way to this cafe via Mt. Slide road. The story is below.
Breakdown at Kangaroo Ground (2009APR02)
Off for a quick rece of Kangaroo Ground today. Get a few shots of the KL range and the surrounding areas. I should be working but until I get the fires out of me I won't work hard. Better to take my own advice, take some shots write some stuff up. Get it out of the system.
On the way I wanted to stop at the round-about and walk across to the main rd to take some shots down the road towards the KG general store. Spent many a day working around here when I was with the Shire. Also it is a bike route I spent many a day pushing gears over the hills admiring the view.
Breakdown
I noticed a car just up from the road. So I pulled in and went over to see how they where going. Chris was fumbling around looking for a way to set the jack up. It was his mates car. His car had been banged up on a freeway. A new Audi rammed up the back of his new Merc. At first I thought he was a bit lame around machinery. He couldn't get the plastic plug off the mount point for the fancy German jack. So I went and got my trusty toolkit. The one with the extra tools I found I needed when I last had a flat.
So I undid the plastic cap with a key from my keyring. Couldn't find a screwdriver. Next set the jack up and we got the wheel off. The old low profile tyres with non-standard mags was screwed. Whoever owned it was a rev-head. With an AMG V8 in the front that's not hard to do. But this tyre and the other back one showed signs of excessive acceleration. Trying to get the new wheel didn't work either. The bolts turned out to be 1/8th" to 1/4" short. I suggested RACV. So a call to the owner confirmed an RACV tow was the order of the day.
Christophers story
I let Chris know I'd be up the road for about half an hour. The shots you see here are what followed. I really wanted to get to the Kangaroo Ground Memorial tower. It's one of the highest points in KG. From here you get un-interrupted 360 degree views of the area. I specifically wanted some shots of KL and the surrounding area of Strathewen, www.flickr.com/photos/bootload/3406218660/. I got them in just before the batteries went flat. Then drove back to check on Chris. He'd called the RACV, despatched his kid off to school by bus and was on the phone again. I'd grabbed my food bag. Always when I'm out I'll have some water and a food bag with fruit, sandwiches and the like.
I started to chat with Chris and let him know why I was there taking shots of the ranges remember people who I knew. Seems it wasn't turning out to be Chris's day. His car all banged up, end of year with financials due and people chasing him. I passed him over my fruit bag commenting, "it's not your day today". Turns out Chris is a local - 'bout 6Km was in the area on the Black Saturday. A whole bunch of them bike ride regularly together. Training for the Bay Classic. On this day of 46 degrees while I was safely within home range at the pool. Chris and his mates decided it would be a good day to ride through KG and up to Kinglake via Mount Slide Road. As it turns out a few couldn't keep up so the detoured to a flatter route. Had they continued they would have been 6 more casualties on the roads. The owner of the car is a local CFA member who went into Marysville in the first few days and is shakey. I let him know to keep an eye out for him.
We talked more about fires, Kinglake, how my Dad stayed and fought and the conditions on the day. Checked if Chris needed any water. Then it was time to leave. I'd got my shots.
It's +day 56, just another day.
===================
Travelling from Mittens Bridge to Kinglake via Kinglake-Heidelberg road. Main street with a few riders I passed on the way up. Fueling up ready to go down.

It was time to replace the Victorinox toolkit I had in my wallet for a few years -- the knife won't stay in place, the swingout cover for the scissors has fallen off, and just the other day I lost the nailfile/flat screwdriver it seems. I got the Victorinox at the GSA surplus place -- you know, where stuff that gets confiscated at the airport winds up for public sale? -- for one dollar, when normally they're around $20.
But I've looked at newer Victorinox kits, and I'm not so pleased. Sure, they've added a feature or two like LED flashlights and Phillips screwdrivers, but then they've taken away a feature or two that I actually use so I kept looking. Mine has: knife, file, flat screwdriver, toothpick, tweezers, ballpoint pen, scissors, and rulers.
Pacific Lutheran University's bookstore (in their new location it's known as Garfield Book Company) is having a clearance sale on a flock of stuff -- $15 for PCMCIA Ethernet or WiFi b/g/y cards, wow! -- and I knew they had Tool Logic brand tool cards from a previous visit. They have 3 different cards (including a rather thick 'office supplies' one with stapler) for $7, down from $15-$20, so I picked up the two wallet cards. The second, a 10-in-1 ICE Companion, is in my car (not shown here) and has a 2" serrated blade, compass, 8x magnifier, and bottle opener along with some more standard tools.
So the new card is a T1 Business Card 12-in-1, which contains scissors, knife, file, flat and Phillips screwdrivers, sewing needle with thread spool, tweezers, toothpick, rulers, and removable clip (removed). And it's slightly thinner than the Victorinox so it's not as tight a fit in my wallet.
Please recycle plastic bottles in the "plastic only" bin.
Persons not complying will be forced to use the Globus Toolkit
