Radiofrequency exposure near high-voltage lines
Vignati M, Giuliani L, Environ Health Perspect, december 1997
"This implies that radiofrequency (RF) magnetic fields are present near the electric network in addition to the 50/60 Hz fields. This intensity of these RF fields is low but the intensity of currents induced in the human body by exposure to magnetic fields increases with frequency. Because scientific research has not yet clarified whether the risk is related to the value of magnetic induction or to the currents this kind of exposure produces in the human body, it is reasonable to suggest that the presence of the RF magnetic fields must be considered in the context of epidemiologic studies."

The psychosocial work environment and skin symptoms among visual display terminal workers: a case referent study
Eriksson N et al, Int J Epidemiol, december 1997
"This study supports the idea that the aetiological basis of facial skin symptoms among VDT-workers includes physical as well as psychosocial factors, and that the interaction between such factors might be significant in the understanding of skin complaints among VDT workers."

Skin changes in "screen dermatitis" versus classical UV- and ionizing irradiation-related damage--similarities and differences
Gangi S, Johansson O, Exp Dermatol, december 1997
"The results of this literature study demonstrate that highly similar changes exist in the skin of "screen dermatitis" patients, as regards the clinical manifestations as well as alterations in the cell populations, and in skin damaged by UV light or ionizing radiation."

Magnetic fields of transmission lines and depression
Verkasalo PK et al, Am J Epidemiol, december 1997
"The adjusted mean Beck Depression Inventory scores did not differ by exposure, providing some assurance that proximity to high-voltage transmission lines is not associated with changes within the common range of depressive symptoms. However, the risk of severe depression was increased 4.7-fold (95% confidence interval 1.70-13.3) among subjects living within 100 m of a high-voltage power line. This finding was based on small numbers. The authors recommend that attempts be made to strive for a better understanding of the exposure characteristics in relation to the onset and course of depression."

Semen analysis of personnel operating military radar equipment
Hjollund NH et al, Reprod Toxicol, november 1997
"This is a preliminary survey of semen quality among Danish military personnel operating mobile ground-to-air missile units that use several microwave emitting radar systems. The maximal mean exposure was estimated to be 0.01 mW/cm2. The median sperm density of the military personnel was significantly low compared to the references. The difference is either due to chance, uncontrolled bias, or nonthermal effects of transitory microwaves."

Mortality of plastic-ware workers exposed to radiofrequencies
Lagorio S et al, Bioelectromagnetics, oktober 1997
"This study raises interest in a possible association between exposure to RF radiation and cancer risk. However, the study power was very small, and the possible confounding effects of exposure to solvents and vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) could not be ruled out. The hypothesis of an increased risk of cancer after radiofrequency exposure should be further explored by means of analytical studies characterised by adequate power and more accurate exposure assessment."

Psychological effects of chronic exposure to 50 Hz magnetic fields in humans living near extra-high-voltage transmission lines
Beale IL et al, Bioelectromagnetics, september 1997
"Performance on most memory and attention measures was unrelated to exposure, but significant linear dose-response relationships were found between exposure and some psychological and mental health variables. In particular, higher time-integrated exposure was associated with poorer coding-test performance and more adverse psychiatric symptomatology. These associations were found to be independent of participants' beliefs about effects of electromagnetic fields."

Risks of leukaemia among residents close to high voltage transmission electric lines
Theriault G, Li CY, Occup Environ Med, september 1997
"This meta-analysis tends to confirm the presence of an association between exposure to magnetic fields and leukaemia among people who reside in the vicinity of high voltage transmission electric lines of > or = 49 kV. There is consistency across studies. Measures of exposure used in the studies were either distance from the lines or calculated fields estimated from pertinent line features. The results apply to adults as well as to children."

Effects of exposure to electromagnetic radiation at 835 MHz on growth, morphology and secretory characteristics of a mast cell analogue, RBL-2H3
Donnellan M et al, Cell Biol Int, julij 1997
"There were no effects seen on levels of cytoskeletal protein synthesis or of beta-actin mRNA. Morphological changes persisted following subculture for at least 7 days in the absence of further exposure. It is hypothesized that effects of exposure to an electromagnetic field at 835 MHz may be mediated via a signal transduction pathway."

Electromagnetic radiation at 835 MHz changes the morphology and inhibits proliferation of a human astrocytoma cell line
French PW et al, Bioelectrochemistry and Bioenergetics, junij 1997
"At 40 mW cm-2 there were no effects seen on cell proliferation, but alteration in cell morphology included increased cell spreading and also the appearance of actin-containing blebs at localised sites on the membrane. It is hypothesised that 835 MHz radiation at low power density may be affecting a signal transduction pathway involved in cell proliferation."

Lymphomas in E mu-Pim1 transgenic mice exposed to pulsed 900 MHZ electromagnetic fields
Repacholi MH et al, Radiat Res, maj 1997
"The aim of the present study was to determine whether long-term exposure to pulse-modulated RF fields similar to those used in digital mobile telecommunications would increase the incidence of lymphoma in E mu-Pim1 transgenic mice, which are moderately predisposed to develop lymphoma spontaneously. One hundred female E mu-Pim1 mice were sham-exposed and 101 were exposed for two 30-min periods per day for up to 18 months to plane-wave fields of 900 MHz with a pulse repetition frequency of 217 Hz and a pulse width of 0.6 ms. Incident power densities were 2.6-13 W/m2 and specific absorption rates were 0.008-4.2 W/kg, averaging 0.13-1.4 W/kg. Lymphoma risk was found to be significantly higher in the exposed mice than in the controls (OR = 2.4. P = 0.006, 95% CI = 1.3-4.5). Follicular lymphomas were the major contributor to the increased tumor incidence. Thus long-term intermittent exposure to RF fields can enhance the probability that mice carrying a lymphomagenic oncogene will develop lymphomas. We suggest that such genetically cancer-prone mice provide an experimental system for more detailed assessment of dose-response relationships for risk of cancer after RF-field exposure."

Mortality among a cohort of electric utility workers, 1960-1991
Kelsh MA, Sahl JD, Am J Ind Med, maj 1997
"Compared to office staff, rate ratios (RR) were higher for respiratory cancers for field staff [(RR = 2.3, 95% CI, 1.0-5.0) linecrew (RR = 2.2 95% CI, 1.5-3.1), and power plant occupations (RR = 2.4, 95% CI, 1.6-3.6)]. Nonmanagement occupations had rate ratios for motor vehicle injuries and all types of injuries, within a range of 2.5-4.7, with all lower CIs > 1.0. The healthy worker effect is an important factor in explaining the difference between SMR and internal cohort analyses results. The SMR results indicate that this workforce has lower rates for overall mortality, cardiovascular disease, cancer and nonintentional injury. A consistent finding in the internal cohort analyses that merits further research was higher mortality rates for respiratory cancer and injuries among nonoffice staff."

Effects of acute exposure to ultrahigh radiofrequency radiation on three antenna engineers
Schilling CJ, Occup Environ Med, april 1997
"Three men were accidentally exposed to high levels of ultrahigh frequency radiofrequency radiation (785 MHz mean frequency) while working on a television mast. They experienced an immediate sensation of intense heating of the parts of the body in the electromagnetic field followed by a variety of symptoms and signs which included pain, headache, numbness, and parasthesiae, malaise, diarrhoea, and skin erythema. The most notable problem was that of acute then chronic headache involving the part of the head which was most exposed."

Childhood leukemia and electromagnetic fields: results of a population-based case-control study in Germany
Michaelis J et al, Cancer Causes Control, marec 1997
"For children exposed to more than 0.2 microT, an elevated but not significant odds ratio (OR) was observed (OR = 3.2, 95 percent confidence interval = 0.7-14.9). These figures are based on only four leukemia cases and three controls since only 1.5 percent of the study population was classified as highly exposed. Exploratory analyses revealed ORs that were not statistically significantly increased for other characteristics of the magnetic field at varying cut-points. The results are comparable with those from other studies. Although not statistically significant, they may indicate a positive association between EMF and childhood leukemia."

Residential exposure to 60-Hertz magnetic fields and adult cancers in Taiwan
Li CY et al, Epidemiology, januar 1997
"The results were based on the separate analysis of 870 cases of leukemia, 577 brain tumors, and 1,980 female breast cancers. We estimated the risk of leukemia among those exposed to magnetic fields of > 0.2 microtesla (microT), relative to the risk among those exposed to fields of < 0.1 microT; the odds ratio was 1.4 [95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.0-1.9]. For distance < 50 meters relative to > or = 100 meters, the relative risk was 2.0 (95% CI = 1.4-2.9). For brain tumors and female breast cancers, the odds ratios were close to unity."

Interactions of radiofrequency radiation on 2-methoxyethanol teratogenicity in rats
Nelson BK et al, J Appl Toxicol, januar 1997
"The results are consistent with previous observations. Dose-related developmental toxicity was observed for 2ME both in the presence and absence of r.f. radiation. However, concurrent RF radiation exposure changed the shape of the dose-effect curve of 2ME. These data indicate that combined exposure effects should be considered when developing exposure guidelines and intervention strategies."

"The results are consistent with previous observations. Significant interactions were observed between 2ME and RF radiation sufficient to maintain colonic temperatures at 41 degrees C for 1 h, but no consistent interactions were seen at lower temperatures even with longer durations. These data indicate that combined exposure effects should be considered when developing both RF radiation and chemical exposure guidelines and intervention strategies."

Cancer incidence near radio and television transmitters in Great Britain. I. Sutton Coldfield transmitter
Dolk H et al, Am J Epidemiol, januar 1997
"The risk of adult leukemia within 2 km was 1.83 (95% confidence interval 1.22-2.74), and there was a significant decline in risk with distance from the transmitter (p = 0.001). These findings appeared to be consistent over the periods 1974-1980, 1981-1986, and were probably largely independent of the initially reported cluster, which appeared to concern mainly a later period."

Blood-brain barrier permeability in rats exposed to electromagnetic fields used in wireless communication
Persson B et al, Wireless Networks, januar 1997
"The frequency of pathological rats is significantly increased (p < 0.0001) from 62/372 (ratio: 0.17 ± 0.02) for control rats to 244/630 (ratio: 0.39 ± 0.03) in all exposed rats. Grouping the exposed animals according to the level of specific absorbed energy (J/kg) give significant difference in all levels above 1.5 J/kg. The exposure was 915 MHz microwaves either pulse modulated (PW) at 217 Hz with 0.57 ms pulse width, at 50 Hz with 6.6 ms pulse width or continuous wave (CW). The frequency of pathological rats (0.17) among controls in the various groups is not significantly different. The frequency of pathological rats was 170/481 (0.35±0.03) among rats exposed to pulse modulated (PW) and 74/149 (0.50±0.07) among rats exposed to continuous wave exposure (CW). These results are both highly significantly different to their corresponding controls (p < 0.0001) and the frequency of pathological rats after exposure to pulsed radiation (PW) is significantly less (p < 0.002) than after exposure to continuous radiation (CW)."

Neurophysiological effects of flickering light in patients with perceived electrical hypersensitivity
Sandstrom M et al, J Occup Environ Med, januar 1997
"The sensitivity of the brain to this type of visual stimulation was tested by means of objective electrophysiological methods such as electroretinography and visual evoked potential. A higher amplitude of brain cortical responses at all frequencies of stimulation was found when comparing patients with the control subjects, whereas no differences in retinal responses were revealed."

Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare

Series: Infernal Devices #2
Source: Review Copy
I literally have no idea where to begin with this review and I'm going to apologise in advance because this is probably just going to be a bit of fan girl ramble in which I try not to tell you too much about the storyline so I don't spoil it for anyone.
There were so many things I loved about this book...
I fell completely and utterly in love with Jem and Will all over again whilst reading this. Both of them are so wonderfully gorgeous in their very different ways and I at the point where I can totally get why poor Tessa can't make her mind up being the two of them as I can't decide either.
I love Charlotte and Henry and their relationship. I loved seeing how their relationship developed over the course of this book as it was so incredibly sweet.
The main plot of this series was awesome as there were so many twists and turns and action throughout.
I love the setting of this series and how the historical setting dictates how the characters react to certain situations. I still love how Tessa finds Sophie scandalous and how she can't get over the fact that Shadowhunters don't wear skirts when fighting.
As brilliant as the first book which has left me just as excited for the next book ... how am I going to be able to wait until next year???

Standard 30A Electric Brewery Control Panel (240V only, for international use)
This control panel is available in kit form through the
control panel order page
These wiring instructions are for our Standard 30A Electric Brewery Control Panel for countries where the mains power is 220-240V only (120V is not available) such as Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.
If you're new to wiring we recommend you read our
instructions for our standard 30A control panel build
as we present some general wiring concepts, hints, and tips.
Why are these changes needed? I thought the heating elements ran at 240V even in North America?
Countries with 120V power have the following power connections available:
While the heating elements run at 240V, many of the components in our control panel (PIDs, timer, buzzer, doorbell transformers, relays, and most lights) run at 120V by using the NEUTRAL line together with one of the two HOT lines. The heating elements run at 240V by using both HOT lines together.
Countries with 220-240V power have the following power connections available:
- GROUND (sometimes called EARTH)
- HOT 220-240V (sometimes called LIVE or ACTIVE)
120V is not possible so all components must run at 220-240V. This means that the buzzer, doorbell transformers, relays, and most lights must be replaced with 220-240V versions. The PIDs and timer continue to work as they work anywhere from 90 to 264V.
Wiring changes are required as there is only one 220-240V HOT line instead of two 120V HOT lines.
Does it matter if the power is 50 or 60Hz?
No. The frequency of the mains power does not matter. All of the components work at 50 or 60Hz.
Do I still need to use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)?
Yes. A GFCI is required for safety reasons. For more information on GFCIs see
STEP 1: Supply power
of our Control Panel build instructions.
Does it matter if I have 220V, 230V, or 240V available in my country?
No. Anywhere from 200-240V will work. If running at lower than 240V the heating element power output will be slightly lower. For example, a 5500W / 240V heating element running at 208V will output 4160W and draw 19.9 amps. At 230V it will output 5053 watts and draw 22.0 amps.
I only have 3-phase 208V or 400V available. Can I use this panel?
Maybe. You may use a single phase of the 208V or 400V 3-phase system: On most 3-phase 208V power systems 208V is available between any two of the phases (HOT lines) while on most 3-phase 400V power systems 230V is available between any of the phases (HOT lines) and NEUTRAL. Best to confirm with your electrician to be sure what is possible. Both 208V and 230V will work instead of 240V but keep in mind that the heating elements are meant to be run at 240V so at 208V or 230V the power output will be reduced slightly (see previous question). Note that on most 3-phase 208V power systems 120V will also be available between any of the phases (HOT lines) and NEUTRAL so our standard control panel design can also work as both 208V and 120V would be available.
Do the heating elements need to change too?
No. The
heating elements as documented on this website
will continue to work as they are meant to be used with 240V. No changes are required. If running lower than 240V, power output will be slightly lower (see previous question).
Countries with 220-240V power will use different 30 amp wall outlets. A 3 conductor cord with a 30 amp / 240V plug suitable for your country/region should be used between the power in connector and the 30 amp wall outlet. Specific instructions on how to wire the wall outlet cannot be provided given that different countries will have different standards. The wall outlet ground should connect to the G (GROUND) point on the connector, the wall outlet HOT to the X point on the connector, and the wall outlet NEUTRAL to the Y point of the connector. The circuit driving the wall outlet should be protected by a 30A / 240V GFCI breaker.
The relay must use a 240V coil instead of 120V.
The fuse holder minimum voltage rating must be increased from 125V to at least 240V.
Part changes:
(Qty: 1)
Blue 22mm LED pilot light 220-240V AC/DC
(Qty: 1)
30A/240V DPDT or DPST relay with 220-240V AC coil
(Qty: 1)
In-line fuse holder for 6.3x32mm fuses, rated to at least 7A/240V
One of the HOT connectors on the
L14-30 power in receptacle
will not be used (which is fine). A
L6-30 male receptacle
with 3 spades (instead of 4) may also be used.
Power input wiring diagram (changes are shown in yellow):
There are no changes to the ground wiring. If you use a different power in receptacle make sure it has a ground. The ground must be connected to your building's ground plane in the electrical panel using an appropriate power cord.
As mentioned above, countries with 220-240V power will use different 30 amp wall outlets so make sure that the GROUND is connected to the power in connector's G point.
Ground wiring diagram:
The doorbell transformers must be changed from 120V to 240V* and the boil relay must use a 240V coil.
Part changes:
(Qty: 2)
Doorbell transformer (220-240VAC input, 8-24VAC output, any wattage)
(Qty: 1)
30A/240V DPDT or DPST relay with 220-240V AC coil
*Many doorbell transformers will support both 120V and 240V on the input side. Since these are approximately 10:1 step down transformers, when fed 240V (instead of 120V), the output voltage will be 24V (instead of 12V) which is low enough as the AC to DC power supplies can accept anywhere from 4 to 30V on the input side.
As per the Standard 30A Electric Brewery Control Panel wiring instructions, make sure to adjust the DC power supplies to +5VDC or slightly below before connecting to the meters as otherwise the meters may be damaged.
Volt and amp meter wiring diagram (changes are shown in yellow):
The pump lights must be changed from 120V to 240V. The pumps themselves *must* be 220-240V. 120V pumps will not work.
The pump receptacles on the control panel must be changed from L5-15 (125V) to L6-15 (250V) and the pump plugs must then also be changed to L6-15 to match.
Part changes (control panel side):
(Qty: 2)
Green 22mm LED pilot light 220-240V AC/DC
(Qty: 2)
NEMA L6-15 (250VAC, 15A) twist lock electrical female receptacle
Part changes (pump side):
(Qty: 2)
Pump with high temperature stainless steel housing (3/4" NPT male center inlet, 1/2" NPT male outlet, 230VAC)
(Qty: 2)
NEMA L6-15 (250VAC, 15A) twist lock electrical male plug
Pump wiring diagram (changes are shown in yellow):
There are no changes to the PID wiring.
PID controller wiring diagram:
The buzzer and light must be changed from 120V to 240V.
Part changes:
(Qty: 1)
Buzzer, 22mm, 220-240V AC/DC
(Qty: 1)
Red 22mm LED pilot light 220-240V AC/DC
Timer and alarm wiring diagram (changes are shown in yellow):
The relays must use 240V coils instead of 120V. Wiring remains the same. We are now supplying power to the elements from the NEUTRAL and HOT lines instead of the two HOT lines. The wire colour is changed in the diagram below to show this. The connection the the second HOT line from the power in receptacle has been removed.
Part changes:
(Qty: 1)
30A/240V DPDT or DPST relay with 220-240V AC coil
Heating element wiring diagram (changes are shown in yellow):
The relays must use 240V coils instead of 120V.
The POWER KEY switch was previously wired directly to the POWER IN RELAY coil (per the POWER INPUT wiring diagram above). This wire must be removed otherwise the interlock feature will be bypassed and the control panel will power up regardless of how the three other switches are set.
Previously the ELEMENT SELECT switch contained two normally open (NO) contactor that were wired up (per the HEATING ELEMENTS wiring diagram above). We are now adding two normally closed (NC) contactors on top of the existing contactors. Only the new wiring is shown here. The existing wiring does not change.
As per the
standard safe start interlock instructions
, the two normally closed (NC) contactors that are added to the Element Select switch are screwed on top of the existing normally open (NO) contactors as shown in the picture below. Use two of the unused NC contactors from any of the other switches (other than the pump switches of course).
Part changes:
(Qty: 1)
10A 8-pin 2-pole ice cube plug-in relay with 220-240VAC coil
Safe start interlock wiring diagram (changes are shown in yellow):
Once completed, make sure to follow our
control panel setup instructions

Hi Kal,
That helps a great deal, thanks....just one question..There's always one, isn't there
The diagram shows the pump receptacles wired as
X (black) - Hot
W (blue) - Neutral
But the Heating Elements are shown as
Y (black) - Hot
X (blue) - Neutral
The pump receptacle doesn't have a W..but if the W should be Y then that is the opposite of how the Heating Elements are wired isn't it?

Good catch on the pump plugs and receptacles. I forgot that they need to change to since the L5-15 items as document only support 125V. You need L6-15 for both the receptacle on the control panel and the plug for the pumps. I've now cahnged the instructions above.
Ground is the L-shaped spade. The X/Y on the heating elements doesn't matter since the element isn't polarized (it's basically just a resistor) or have one side that should be neutral and the other hot.

Hi Kal.....and just as I'm embarking on the cabling...
1. I've changed my schema so that X is HOT and Y is NEUTRAL...because that's the natural orientation of the 240v power receptacle with earth/ground being uppermost..I've changed the plug connections to match this too.
2. In the diagrams above you mention 10 gauge white wire....but there is no 10 gauge white wire in the Control Panel kit...There is only 10 gauge Black, Green and Red..the green is earth, black is HOT and red is, well other HOT..but in our 240v system there is no other HOT...so I guess I should use the 10 gauge red wire where the the 10 gauge white wire is specified. The 10 gauge white wire is NEUTRAL.
The problem is that red isn't an intuitive colour for NEUTRAL this side of the pond..In fact it screams LIVE/HOT/DANGER Will Robinson....DANGER!...
..for 240v European/NZ systems I would strongly recommend supplying 10 gauge white instead...
In the meantime does Mike have any 10 gauge white available for immediate shipment? Happy to find the cost..just would rather stay anal as far as colour coding my cables are concerned.

Correct. Colour doesn't matter. Use the 10 ga red wire where the 10 ga white wire is supposed to go.

Good recommendation. I'll recommend it to Mike.

I'd just use what you have to avoid delays, but if you want, email us at
with your complete address and he can let you know the cost.

FWIW I actually used the red wire and have ordered some white heat shrink to cover the red. Weird I know, but that's me. I concur, it may be optimal for future 240v builds to provide the white wire. It doesn't personally bother me. I've got the entire panel wired, bar the Safe Start. I'm going to recheck the wiring, and more than likely, shorten some of the wiring as well, just to tidy it up.

Hi Electric Puha...
Yes I have come to that conclusion too...Mike has kindly offered to get me some 10 ga in white but it won't get here anytime soon..and as is the case in the UK I suspect you can't obtain that spec cable either in NZ.
I've ordered some white heat shrink....that was a bit tricky to find too..but it'll be here tomorrow so I won't be delayed doing the cabling...

Post subject: pump receptacles
my pump receptacles I received with the kit do not have any labels on the three terminals. They simply are three different colors: green (presumed ground), gold and silver. Can not figure out which is the neutral and which is to be used as a hot?

Green = Ground
Brass = Hot
Silver = Neutral
More important that you wire your pumps themselves the same way on the pump side.

The GREEN ground wire is connected to the ground blade, while the black and white (hot wires) are connected to the other two blades. Normally in AC circuits BLACK signifies a hot wire while WHITE is NEUTRAL, but in our setup both BLACK and WHITE are used as 120 VAC hot wires so the orientation of BLACK and WHITE does not matter here.
This bit I don't follow... surely there should always be one (or more) hot wires AND one (or more) neutral wires? In any case, I live in the UK so would be doing a 240V setup - so I take it that changes things anyway?
Also, I'd be interested in a setup for a brew-length of around 5 imperial gallons (about 6 US gallons) at that is the standard over here. I'm guessing that means smaller pots and smaller heating elements (which would suit me). How does that change things? Any idea where I might find suitable elements of a smaller wattage?

Hi Dennis,
As you live in the UK it's much simpler...we only have Live, Neutral and Earth so those instructions don't apply..if you follow the wiring instructions in the thread above everything will work fine...the instructions Kal has in the main web site refer to a 4 wire 120v and 240v system that they have in the US...in the UK it's much less complicated.
As regards building a 5 gallon version of the brewery there are a number of threads that look at this option but I think you will find that:
1. It won't be any cheaper to build a 5 gallon system than a 10 gallon one...and remember that US gallons are really only 8.3 UK gallons so going for a 10 US gallon system isn't that much different from a 5 UK gallon version.
2. You can brew 5 gallons in a 10 gallon system.
3. Fitting UK elements into the kettles would need a different methodology than described in the web site. The fittings are quite different from the US elements.

Thanks for the feedback, David.
As space here is an issue, even making things slightly smaller can be the difference between having the space or not having the space. I'll do some investigating as I'm a while off being ready to build an EB.

So that you can turn on the control panel.
(You can't complete the circuit if it only goes through the relay).

Hi Kal,
I intend to do a simpler implementation of your boiler without the complexity of the control panel providing the power source. I am based in Ireland that uses 220/240v power that is as far as I know the same as the UK (power wise anyway
I hope to be able to wire a 3 pin plug on to the Camco #02963 5500W 240VAC ultra low watt density (ULWD) RIPP element for heating in my boiler.
Before I go purchasing the element I was hoping you could help me confirm that my understanding is correct on the wiring so that I don't end up with a fancy paperweight.
My power source socket will have the following wiring
- GROUND (sometimes called EARTH)
- HOT 220-240V (sometimes called LIVE or ACTIVE)
My assumption is that the power supply and element wiring will be the same (Ps is the power supply and S is the socket as shown below).
Ps ground to S ground
Ps neutral to S neutral
Ps live to S live
Many thanks,

Hi Declan,
Having never lived in Ireland I really don't know if you've got this wired correctly. Sorry. This is why in the instructions above I wrote:
"For this reason the exact connection points to use on the 30A/240V power in receptacle are not shown in the diagram blow. Instead, I only label what the wire is for (HOT or NEUTRAL). It is up to the user to ensure that the wires connect up correctly to their wall electrical outlet."
I highly recommend you verify this with an electrician.
You need some way to turn the element on/off. Please don't use the wall socket as a switch. That's way too much power to be turning on/off by simply unplugging the element.

Hi Kal,
I will of course verify it with an electrician (brother is one). In my previous post I did not mention that the proposed setup will be to use a dedicated power supply that is controlled by its own switch and that has its own circuit breaker. My questions were aimed to ensure that its possible to use this element with a 240v power supply and I think that you have done that.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Hi Declan,
The 5500W elements can be used anywhere in the world were 220-240V is possible. It's just a question of wiring it up right and having the right gauge wiring, breaker, etc.
You can use them on a 120V circuit too, but the power is 1/4 making it not all that useful in most setups.
Good luck!

Ok, I know this is a dumb question (and its my first post so be nice!), but why does the neutral feed loop to the relay prior to feeding the neutral bus? We're only switching the active/hot arent we?

My feet are abput 10-12' off the ground. I never had a problem. However, I sit in tree crotches and I like to " snuggle up" in several trees very close by like 1 or 2' away. I always make sure I dont have open sky behind me and make sure I am not out in the open at all. When I find a tree with several trunks, Ash and basswood grow several trunks many times. I like to get in those . It makes me harder to see and is safer if I fall for some reason, I likely could grab a tree to keep me form falling. Never happened yet and at 10' from the ground I have a much less chance of getting hurt than at 20'. I never felt a deer was worth the 1 in 1,000 chance of falling and almost never get busted.

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
Every tree is different. If I'm in a thicker area with crappy trees I may only be 6 ft up. If I got good trees I'm usually 25 feet up. It's really just area specific. I like to be higher up if possible because I don't get busted by sight or scent as much, but shot angles get worse.

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
All situational but the older I get the lower I hunt.
When I hunted with a climber I always hunted high due to the trees I had to use, probably averaged 25’.
Now that I use a mobile set up with sticks I can pick any tree I want and usually have better cover lower.

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
With my setup I can get the bottom of my feet to 18 feet... but it's pretty rare for me to actually set up that high. The buck I killed in 2020 I was only about 6 feet off the ground, in a really large diameter tree that completely broke up my outline. This years buck was up about 12 feet, in a pretty large tree with several fairly big trunk like branches coming out that allowed me to be well hidden. The doe I killed in Jan I actually set my platform up less than 2 ft off the ground and used it as a seat because there was better cover to break my outline staying on the ground. Seems like I have better leaf cover lower in early season, and in late season its way too easy to be picked off if high up in a tree most of the spots I hunt. Late season I only get higher if I have alot of brushy trees or cedars immediately behind me to break me up.

I've been running a LW for the last several seasons. I don't remember the last time I used my 4th stick.
Like has been said over and over, where I put my stand is dictated by everything else.
Height can definitely help with "getting out of the deers world". Out of their vision...can be beneficial for scent pools etc....but a lot of what I hunt l, shots are close. You get high and that shot angle is extreme and difficult.
I really like having cover. I've found I can get by with a LOT...and the deer that think they saw or heard something, often times look right through me and don't nail me.
If you look at the OPs photo, I'd actually wanna be lower. A few feet lower puts a good bit of clutter behind the stand. Where it is now, it's sky. For me, that background cover is huge and I think overlooked. If I can't get something immediately behind/around me, I definitely try to picture what the deer see and try to avoid that skyline effect which typically means being lower...
Very situational, but I find myself on the lower end of things more than i find myself high.
This right here. Fully agree. Great job articulating why!

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
I’m never sure how high I’m going to hunt I spend way more time deciding on the right tree then I just start climbing and looking as I climb when I’m there I know then I hang

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
I’m terrible at estimating the height of features in trees and whether or not it’s going to be in my way. Most of the time I hit it before reaching full height and have to set up lower than I expected. But… this weekend I thought I’d clear a clump of leaves from a tree in front of me and was about 2 feet short. I had to contort to avoid them after snagging my quiver and missed a chip shot on a doe as a result.

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
as high or low or in between as the spot dictates. I was hunting Westchester county in the hay day of the 90`s & killed several from a stand 8=9 ft off the ground in a crotch of a tree. My Bros in law insisted it was too low & moved it up to 15-16 ft. Got picked out every time after that. Moved it back down & shot another. Mike

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
Depends on the situation sometimes 8ft sometimes 25ft. Anywhere in that 8 to 25ft span is where ull find me, all about the tree and terrain.

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
I hunt however high I need to be - depends on back cover / front cover / thickness of tree / rough distance I expect deer movement, and a whole bunch of other factors... If you can hunt and be still I think you can get away with being lower than most think..

Re: How High Do You Hunt?
All situational. My setups can be anywhere from 6’ - 20’ but I probably average around the 8-12 range.
Tree type and size, cover and wind dictate where my ambush point is and where I need to be. The more I hunt using beast tactics the more I find myself in trees I would of never dreamed of back when I started hunting. Like being on the edge of a swamp and the only trees available are the smaller 5” in diameter type and you might get 6-8’ up.
Trees on edge cover are rarely straight up and down like big mature open hardwoods trees. So those edge cover trees that grow all crazy I find myself not that high. I was using a Lone Wolf Climber but switched to the beast stand this year and man you can get that hang on stand in so much more places than a climber. Edge trees are harder to hang a climber on then open woods.
When I started hunting I thought you had to be 25-30’ up in open woods. Also had no idea how important wind was. Now each year goes by and find myself going lower and lower but each spot is completely situational.

By Mohamud M Uluso
Somalia adopted a UN drafted Provisional Constitution, formed new national parliament representing the entire population of the country and elected a national leadership for ending 12 years of chaotic transition period and establishing a permanent, representative and accountable government eligible for substantial Official Development Assistance (ODA). Majority of Somalis believed that the international community will treat the post transition government of Somalia as a sovereign authority primarily representative of and accountable to its people. That belief was encouraged by the Communiqué of the Secretary General of the United Nations issued after the conclusion of the Mini Summit on Somalia held in New York on 26 September 2012, in which he said:
We reaffirmed our respect for the sovereignty, territorial integrity, political independence and unity of Somalia and pledged our support to a peaceful, democratic, stable and prosperous Somalia. We recognized that Somalia had entered a new political era and committed to forge a new partnership for peacebuilding and statebuilding, which should be based on principles of national ownership, mutual accountability and transparency.
We committed to a new Somali owned and led partnership, which will work towards a compact between the Somali authorities and the international community inspired by the principles outlined in the New Deal, agreed in Busan in November 2011.
The New Deal for the International Engagement in the fragile and conflict affected countries (the “New Deal”) is integral part of the outcome of the international efforts on Aid Effectiveness and Development led by the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) of the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) under the High Level Forum (HLF) comprising developed and developing countries plus bilateral and multilateral institutions. Those efforts were supported by the International Dialogue for Peace-building and State-building (IDPS) working with fragile and conflict affected countries called (g7+), parliamentarians, regional organizations and civil society representatives. After series of meetings of the HLF and IDPS between 2003 and 2011, the 4th HLF meeting participated by IDPS group and held in Busan, Republic of (South) Korea between November 29-December 1, 2011, adopted the basic document titled the Busan Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation in which it has been endorsed the New Deal worked out by the IDPS. Somalia is one of the 17 countries of the g7+ chosen for the implementation of the New Deal.
As it is clear from the principles of national ownership of development interventions, mutual accountability and transparency mentioned in the communiqué, the New Deal builds on the vision of peace-building and state-building centered on the dual compacts between state and its citizens on one side and between the state and the international community on the other side. The compact between the state and its citizens comes first. The leaders of the fragile states are entrusted with the responsibility to present a comprehensive owned plan which lays out vision and policies that responds to the five goals of the New Deal –
(1) political legitimacy and inclusivity,
(2) security,
(3) justice,
(4) strong economic foundations, and
(5) good management of resource and revenue.
There are other principles agreed for good international engagement in fragile states like
(a) the consideration of the specific context in each country,
(b) avoidance of the creation of new social divisions and worsening of corruption and abuses,
(c) the use of aid recipient management systems (institutions) and
(d) the need to act fast and to stay engaged to give success a chance.
In the light of the above, the first gesture expected from the international community was to allow and encourage the newly elected leaders of Somalia to set up their cabinet administration, and define their own national development plan and to treat them with diplomatic deference. That expectation faded quickly and sense of frustration is emerging in the face of the unilateral and divisive actions of the international community on many critical issues. The commitments made in the New Deal and the message of the Secretary General have not been honored and translated into practice. The principal-agent relationship between the International Community and Somalia is in display. Unfortunately, the International Community reneged on the implementation of the New Deal commitments in Somalia. Indeed, Mark Bowden, the outgoing Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia said, “Skimping on aid now, particularly when recently development institutions are new and delicate, could put fledgling political advancement at risk and cause a new surge of violence and upheaval.”
The job of the new Federal Government (FG) is overridden by the activities of regional bodies or international mechanisms that control functions and responsibilities invested constitutionally in the Somali government. The former Somali Aid Coordination Body (SACB) implemented under EU leadership, which was more of a bottom-up-approach bringing all together has been replaced by a heavy-handed UN-fronted conglomerate with no transparency at all. Some of those mechanisms and bodies include the Humanitarian Coordinator/The Humanitarian Country Team ((HC/HCT) and the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) - located in Nairobi, Kenya which controls the aid to Somalia under the Consolidated Appeal Process (CAP), the Pricewaterhousecoopers financial contract, the Joint Financial Management Board (JFMB), the role of the United Political Office for Somalia (UNPOS) after post transition, the 2008 Djibouti Agreement, Ahlu Sunna Wal Jama's (ASWJ) Addis Ababa Agreement, the UNDP Budget support project for the Somali Government, the continuation of the US dual track policy and the centrality of the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD - Ethiopia and Kenya) in the internal politics of Somalia, the Kampala Accord, the resource competition between the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) and the Somali national and local security forces, and the international aid policy based on Geopolitical and security interests of the donors rather than on the peace-building and state-building priorities in Somalia. Those are the strings on which the Somali marionette hangs - and often enough these strings get entangled.
It is instructive to note that the International Crisis Group (ICG) instead of encouraging other donors to follow and complement Turkey widely appreciated model of assistance in Somalia, which adheres to the New Deal, it has suggested that Turkey should change its aid policy if it wants to play a major and sustained role in Somalia. This attempt is disadvantageous for Somalia. The focus on the global Security imperatives without precedence on peace-building and state-building in fragile states like Somalia produces humanitarian crisis and political instability.
Without doubt, Somalia has had a poor record of public financial management throughout its history. However, its political independence is dependent upon its independent and accountable management of its national resources for public interests as emphasized in the New Deal. The management of public finance is the cornerstone for building national authority with legitimacy and institutional capacity.
The federal parliament must open a debate on the issues limiting the progress towards state-building for collective understanding. For example, the review of the scope of the JFMB in light of the provisional constitution and national interests is critical. The creation of JFMB abolishes the role of the national institutions responsible for the management and oversight of the government operations as detailed in the provisional constitution. It would suppress public vigilance and criticism against government’s mismanagement. The former Transitional Federal Government (TFG) has resisted the acceptance of the JFMB.
It is presumable that some donor countries will threaten to withhold their financial assistance unless their proposed mechanisms that will limit FG’s influence on the allocation, management and accountability of the resources provided are accepted. The main excuse for the donor’s demand will be the widespread corruption against former TFG leaders, despite their complicity. Inevitably, the new FG must immediately put in place new mechanism that will guarantee timely reporting, investigation, accountability and confidence in the management of public funds. It can also request experts and auditors working within the national institutions involved in the collection and expenditure of financial resources.
The election of Prof. Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Prof. Mohamed Sheikh Osman “Jawaari” as President and Speaker respectively and the subsequent appointment of the new Prime Minister Dr. Abdi Farah Shirdoon “Saa’id” have registered the public revulsion against former TFG leaders for their incompetence and corrupt performance and raised the hope of the Somali people for better future. The public is waiting to know what the FG has inherited from the TFG in terms of financial resources, assets, institutional capability, public records, and pending commitments. The ICG’s characterization of the legacy of the TFG as troubled transition to tarnished transition must ring a warning bell for the new FG leadership.
In addition to their advanced educational qualification, the trio have in combination good track record in public administration and politics, direct involvement in the search for peace, national reconciliation and political solution to the tragic situation of Somalia, good knowledge of the causes behind the collapse of the Somali State and of the failures of their preceding leaders as well as of the aspirations of the Somali people. Nevertheless, the reality is that the new FG leaders face formidable challenges that will test their vision, sense of patriotism, personal leadership skills, endurance and dexterity in confronting the internal as well as the external political crisis and traps. FG must take account of the reluctance of the international community to embrace the New Deal commitments and plan for such predicament. The future forebodes more pessimism and treachery than optimism and cooperation.

"Courage, above all things, is the first quality of a warrior." -Karl von Clausewitz
Courage is a highly subjective thing. To be courageous one must face a fear. Refuse to let that fear win or defeat you. This can be something as seemingly simple as walking through a door. We often define courage by large acts, but often courage is simply staying the course and not giving in. Heroes are those who practice courage, despite the struggle, daily.

We often define courage by large acts, but often courage is simply staying the course and not giving in. Heroes are those who practice courage, despite the struggle, daily.
A young boy who was too scared to enter a room finds courage every time he actually makes that step. Just a small step for everyone else, yet such an obviously big one for him. It was great to see the support and encouragement he received from fellow students, recognising his struggle. Each time this happens, he experiences a feeling of community; that despite his fear he is in a safe environment. Of course he wouldn't be thinking about all of this consciously, but it helps him to understand that fear is an internal energy. It is how we react to stimulus, and not exactly the stimulus itself.
The other example was a student recounting an experience in the workplace, where she was confronted, berated, and bullied. He fear kicked in, but her courage was strong enough to enable her to stand her ground. To even look at the situation objectively and be mindful of her fear response. She recognised that she was in no immediate danger, no real threat on her life, so she was able to control he response. She attributed her fortitude, in part, to her experiences at the Dojo and her training. She is a fine example of how the lessons learned in the Dojo are truly about developing the whole self, and not just about the acts of physical combat.
I learn so much from my students each week. Thank you all so much.

Lorentzian Graphal Network for Hyperbolic Geometry
Lorentzian Graph Convolutional Networks
We propose a novel hyperbolic graph convolutional network named lorentzian graph convolutional network (lgcn), which rigorously guarantees the learned node features follow the hyperbolic geometry.
Specifically, we rebuild the graph operations of hyperbolic graph convolutional networks with the lorentzian version, e.g., the feature transformation and non-linear activation.
