This is the noise spectrum of the card . The peak at 60 Hz and the harmonic at 120 Hz are expected. However, the -114dB peak at 80 Hz was a surprise. I have a feeling that it is the result of one of the case fans. It's obvious the Faraday cage around the card helps, but I think I could build a better one.

The Churches Conservation Trust is trying out a new concept to bring St Laurence’s church on St Benedict Street, Norwich into re-use. It is a called The Common Room.
Working in collaboration with an an amazing founding group, the Churches Conservation Trust, 00:/ and Social Spaces held the Make Day - designed to continue to co-design the building blocks of the project.
And open invition was again extended to encourage people to be part of taking The Common Room to the next stage.
The Common Room could transform St Laurence's Church into a new type of shared space, made and shaped collectively, and run on the principles of collaboration, connection and resourcefulness.
You could host meet ups, start new projects or develop your business ideas. It could be a workspace, workshop, communal dining room, or growing space.... What happens there can be up to you.
There are lots of exciting ideas, potential opportunities and a high level of interest from many different people....
"Norwich really needs a centre for all of its many creative people to come together & support each other & benefit from each other's experience."
"The Common Room should encourage activities & projects within the local community, shaped by the local community. I would love to both teach & be taught here."
"A community workshop would allow people to learn new skills and do things for themselves. It could have so much potential, for businesses too."
There are new parts we needed to design, build and create together.

During the early days of my South Bay photography, Cargill’s Newark salt plant and its surrounding crystallizer beds appeared on my map as terra incognita. From the beginning, I wanted to photograph Cargill’s facility, both for its colorful nature and its role as the last truly active salt plant in the Bay Area. The plant, originating as Arden Salt Works #2 in the 1920s, has long provided the distinctive sight of stacked salt on the edge of the former wetlands. In the current day, an annual harvest of around 500,000 tons is added to the twin mounds of salt that are 500 feet long and 75 feet high. It is a striking landmark.
In 2010, after several years of discussion, I was able to secure Cargill’s permission for five sessions to photograph their property under supervision. This session involved a trip out to a recently harvested crystallizer bed, where laser-guided levelling equipment was preparing the bed for the next round of brine and salt precipitation. The crystallizer beds have a floor of unharvested salt that separated the brine from bay mud below and provides a structural surface for the balloon-tired dump trucks using in hauling the harvest to the washhouse. Some of the images in this set show the activity of bed levelling while others convey my intoxication with the colors and textures of the place.
I took these documentary photographs with the permission and supervision of Cargill. Kite flying is prohibited over Cargill-controlled lands without their permission.
We are almost back to pre-COVID-19 levels. And that's despite the Leicester City boundary only a mile away.
Baku Boulevard (Azerbaijani: Dənizkənarı Milli Park, also known as National Park) is a promenade established in 1909 which runs parallel to Baku's seafront. Its history goes back more than 100 years, to a time when Baku oil barons built their mansions along the Caspian shore and when the seafront was artificially built up inch by inch.
The park stretches along a south-facing bay on the Caspian Sea. It traditionally starts at Freedom Square continuing west to the Old City and beyond. Since 2012, the Yeni Bulvar (new boulevard) has virtually doubled the length to 3.75 km, extending the promenades to National Flag Square. In 2015 White City Boulevard added a further 2 km to the east of Freedom Square and reports have suggested that eventually the boulevard might be as long as 26 km, including Bibiheybət.
The boulevard was established to connect the oilfields in Bibi Heybet as part of the urban development projects by Municipal Horticultural Commission.
In 1900, the Municipal Horticultural Commission decided to plant trees and shrubs along the seafront. Kazimierz Skurewicz, a Polish engineer, designed a 20-meter-wide embankment, using vegetation that would survive Baku's extremely hot, dry and gusty climate.
In 1909, Mammad Hassan Hajinski, Head of Baku's Municipal Construction Department improved the park by spending 60,000 rubles after Duma passed his resolution. The park was intended to provide for the continued expansion of the city to the north, providing relaxation and recreation opportunities for the new middle class to the west, and an escape from the rapid slumming of the city centre for those left behind. To select the best design for the Boulevard, Hajinski organized a contest among the architects in Baku. However, since most of the city's 30 architects were busy designing mansions for oil barons, only three submitted plans for it. The winning design was titled "Zvezda" (Star) and featured a bathing house, luxurious restaurant and a dozen pavilions. The design specified that wastewater would be collected in a separate manifold instead of being discharged directly into the Caspian (which is the case today). Work was completed in 1911.
Until the early 20th century, the avenue had mansions on one side and seafront on the other. There were no trees. Tons and tons of fertile soil were imported to enrich the soil quality. Baku's Mayor, R. R. Hoven, supported by the richest industrialists, passed a decree in the 1880s saying that all ships entering Baku harbors from Iran had to bring fertile soil with them. In reality, this was a kind of "tax" or "duty" imposed for the right to use the harbor and load up with oil. Within a very short time, enough soil was deposited, and the parks that characterize the city's seafront today were developed.
At the new Baku Bathing House, visitors could take a swim while visiting the Boulevard. This bathing house was closed in the late 1950s due to poor maintenance and the bay's polluted water.
The improved Boulevard stretched from what is now the SOCAR Circle to the luxurious cinema, restaurant and the casino that was called "Phenomenon", designed by Polish architect Józef Plośko in 1912.
During the Soviet period, the casino was converted to a Puppet Theater, a function it still serves today. Subsequently, the Boulevard was extended up to the Baku International Sea Trade Port.
In 1936, a Parachute tower was built and used for extreme activities. However, the tower stopped functioning after a fatal accident in the 1960s, which led to the ultimate ban of parachuting from the tower. To this day, the tower is considered one of the landmarks of the boulevard.
The Boulevard developed further after the construction of Bahar and Mirvari cafes, summer cinema and other leisure attractions during 1950-1960s.
In 1970, the boulevard was expanded to both eastward and westward.
In the 1980s, the area was mismanaged and maintenance was neglected. The situation further deteriorated as the level of the sea began to rise so high that many of the trees and shrubs in the park started dying off due to the salinity of the water. At present, once again, the Caspian sea level is going back down.
In 1999, the boulevard was proclaimed a National Park by Heydar Aliyev, former president of Azerbaijan. This status also helped to mitigate the environmental concerns, such as cleanup of oil pollution from Caspian Sea oilfields. Until 2009, there were 28 entertainment attractions in boulevard's amusement park. However, due to safety reasons, old attractions were replaced by new carousels and rides from Italy and Germany.
In 2008, the Parachute Tower was reconstructed and started to display wind speed, time, date, air and sea water temperature.
The boulevard contains an amusement park, yacht club and musical fountain, and various statues and monuments. The park is popular with dog-walkers and joggers, and is convenient for tourists, being adjacent to the newly built International Center of Mugham and musical fountain.
The boulevard marked it is 100th anniversary in 2009 as the specific date of it is creation is still unknown.
Landmarks
In 2010, a multi-story shopping mall Park Bulvar, Baku Business Centre and 5D cinema were opened on this promenade as part of the Government's regeneration policy to boost shopping and leisure in Baku.
In 2012, after Azerbaijan's victory in Eurovision Song Contest 2011, the boulevard extended towards Bayil settlement, where National Flag Square unveiled. Confirmed by the Guinness Book of Records, the flag flies on a pole 162 meters high and measures 70 by 35 meters, which makes it the world's highest flag. Baku Crystal Hall, which hosted Eurovision Song Contest 2012, is located next to it.
In 2014, the 60-metre (197 ft) tall Baku Ferris Wheel opened in the new section of the Boulevard.
In 2014, the new building of the Azerbaijan Carpet Museum was constructed at the Boulevard.
In 2015, Stone Chronicle Museum, “XX-XXI Century
Azerbaijani painting” Museum and "Yarat" Contemporary Art Center were opened at the Boulevard. Additionally, opening ceremonies of Water Sports Palace and White City Boulevard were held in 2015.
In 2016, the new section of the Boulevard saw the opening of Baku's first open-air cinema.
Seaside Boulevard Office was established under the Cabinet of Ministers according to the Decree of the President of Azerbaijan on January 10, 2008 in order to restore the natural landscape of the boulevard, maintain its historical appearance, develop the area's rich flora, protect the boulevard, and ensure the implementation of social and cultural events.
The Chairman Of the Seaside Boulevard Office is Ilgar Mustafayev since January 2016.
The square has often been the scene of public meetings, cultural gatherings, celebrations, ceremonies, parades, concerts and has lately become the venue for the city's extensive New Year celebrations.

This sign shows the 1947 & 1887 flood heights - so the 2013 floods are still nowhere near it but amazing nonetheless. I've lived in this area for 13 years and always driven past the sign wondering how there could be so much water, I now have a little more of an idea!
