Heeling training is important and is like your dogs line of communication with you, literally. Make sure you realize that by using a leash, you know that it's not a restraining device. You don't want to tug, you want to lead him. A way of making it through the park with out distractions. Heeling training promotes proper behavior. This is a good thing to learn, you don't want an out of control dog after all. Heeling training isn't a very difficult task to grasp, but it does help if your dog knows how to come first. The leash is your dogs life line, you want him by your side and doing so in an obedient way. Who doesn't want a well behaved dog, that listens to you and does what he's told? I know that I sure do.

Just start with the leash, hold a treat in your hand, to give your dog something for following your command the right way. Heeling training will become like second nature to your dog as long as you practice the heeling training on a regular basis. Now that doesn't mean every time you go for a walk but just enough to learn the command properly. Don't punish the dog if heel training isn't going as fast as you'd like. It takes time like anything else. Especially when your dog is still a youngster, he does not know any better unless you teach him the proper way of doing things. Speak positively and in a nice tone when commanding your dog. He won't want to respond positively to you if your being mean to him, you maybe scaring him you don't want that.

Below, we take a look at our top tips when it comes to planning a river trip and the things that you should really be considering before embarking on your journey.

Location - With thousands of miles worth of river in the UK, trying to find somewhere that will be a good canoeing trip should not be hard, with the River Wye in the Forest of Dean one of the most favoured spots, but there are also plenty of others to choose from as well. It is important to make sure that the location offers everything for you and your party and that you choose somewhere that is accessible for most members.

Accommodation - Even if you are planning to camp out during your river trip, you really should consider trying to find somewhere that has a campsite or at least a piece of land that you are allowed to use for camping. If you are looking to stay in a hotel or guest house, then you will have to plan your trip to make sure that you are close to the accommodation or see if they will arrange some kind of transport to get you to and from the river.

Instruction - If you are a relatively inexperienced canoeist, then you might want to consider taking in an instruction course before you set off on your river trip or you might want to hire a guide / instructor to come along for the journey with you. Even if you think you are an expert in the canoe, every river and every stretch of water is of course different, so a reminder session or area advisory information can always be worthwhile.

Distance - It is vital that you plan your trip in terms of the distance that you wish to travel, because you have to try and work out how much distance you can make each day and then base this into your overall trip plans. Once you know the distance that you wish to travel for the duration of your river trip, you can then start to plan the area you wish to canoe in and see how many attractions you can start to take in over the duration of the trip.

Group Size - If you have a really large party going on your trip, then you will find that some areas are far more suitable than others. You will also need to take into account accommodation if you are planning to stay "off river" and make sure that you find an area that can really accommodate the needs of your group.

Difficulty Level - Some rivers or some parts of a river will be more difficult than others, so it is important that you take into consideration the ability of your group and do not go for a stretch of water that is going to be really demanding if some of your group are not advanced or experienced canoeists. It is always a good idea to speak to local canoe hire companies and ask their advice regarding how suitable the area would be and you can also have a chat about a quick introduction course as well.

Paul Howells has over 20 years worth of experience when it comes to teaching and instructing canoe hire, offering canoe hire lessons and trips on the River Wye.

He is fully qualified and has taught thousands of people to canoe the rivers over the past 20 years, running a successful business in the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire, running trips from Symonds Yat.

It's always nice to throw out an interesting fact when you are with friends. Here are some vegetarian-related snippets for you to use, whether you are vegetarian or not.

1. There are a lot of vegetarians out there

If you are a vegetarian you may sometimes feel a little lonely. You scour menus searching for the veggie option (hoping it isn't mushroom risotto - or worse: vegetable stack) and most of your friends and family eat meat. Yet in actual fact, there are many, many vegetarians in the world. Millions! In India it is estimated that over 350 million people are vegetarian. In Taiwan, around 13% of people are vegetarian.

If you live in the UK you may be interested to know that as many as four million of you are vegetarian. In Brazil 8% of the population (that's 15.2 million people) are said to be vegetarian. In the United States, 13% of the population regard themselves as either vegetarian or vegan.

So you are not alone. Someone just needs to tell the restaurants.

1. Vegetarians do not eat fish (or chicken)

Vegetarians hate being asked if they eat fish. By definition, a vegetarian does not eat animals - whether they are from the land or the sea. Where the problem lies is you may have met a fish-eating vegetarian. Or rather, someone who eats fish and no other animals and then labels themselves vegetarian. They are not vegetarian. Such people are actually called pescetarians.

The fish-eating issue can cause problems for vegetarians as all too often they may be served fish by their host at a dinner party or 'fish' ends up being the vegetarian option on a menu.

So the next time you meet a person who eats fish but calls themselves vegetarian, feel free to correct them.

1. Vegetarians do get enough protein

There's another question vegetarians get asked all too often: where do you get your protein from? People who ordinarily don't care about nutrition feel compelled to worry about a vegetarian's intake of protein. It's the sort of question that feels like the one trick meat eaters have up their sleeve and it's not a very good one. Mainly because they are showing their ignorance of nutrition. Protein is plentiful in a vegetarian's diet. Here's a list to get you started: nuts, beans, textured vegetable protein, tofu, cheese, lentils, peas, yogurt, broccoli, spinach, avocado, soy and quinoa. Furthermore, many people actually eat too much protein (this is the case in Australia at least). So it makes little sense to be worrying about a person's protein intake, especially when so many people are unable to meet their daily fruit and veg requirements.

1. Vegetarians have a lower risk of developing heart disease

People may be vegetarian for ethical or religious reasons. However, there is a positive consequence to your health if you are vegetarian. Vegetarians are less likely to develop heart disease. This is not the only benefit however. Vegetarianism can also reduce your risk of developing high blood pressure, diabetes and some cancers (including breast, colorectal and ovarian). Vegetarians are less likely to become obese. When you consider how prevalent these diseases are on society, this is good news indeed.

1. Anthony Hopkins is a vegetarian

In my first point I stated that there are many vegetarians in the world. It is not surprising then to learn that there are a whole bunch of celebrities out there who are vegetarian and vegan. Here's a quick list, but there are many, many more. We have: Kate Winslet, Corey Feldman, Sarah Silverman, Carrie Underwood, Casey Affleck, Diane Keaton, Pamela Anderson, Ian McKellan and Natalie Portman. From the music world we have: Kelly Clarkson, Billy Idol, Bryan May, Johnny Marr, Moby, Michael Bolton, Ricky Martin and Nelly.

People like to collect rare vinyl records for many reasons, including purchasing them for personal reasons and seeing them as a valuable investment of money. For those who are looking start collecting these kinds of items however, it can be difficult to know how to pick out a quality item and whether or not it will be worth the money.

The first thing to look for is the condition of the disc itself, as this will affect the value of the item. If you are investing in a collector's item, this will affect the usability of the record, and your enjoyment of it if you are simply looking to add a favourite record to your collection.

It is important to examine the record from various angles, as a dull surface will show that an item is well used. A shinier appearance is likely to indicate that the rare vinyl records you are looking at and thinking of buying have not been used so extensively, which can indicate a better investment of your money.

It is equally important to look for scratches on the record itself, as this will not only affect the value of the item but also its playability. It is the deep scratches that one should be most aware of, as these will significantly affect the sound quality the most.

A tip is to run your finger over the scratches, seeing if you can feel them in a major way. If so, chances are that these scratches are likely to affect the sound when you play your vinyl. If the scratches are unnoticeable when you pass your fingertip over them, you may consider them of less significance than deeper scratches.

The next thing to consider is the condition of the jacket of the vinyl record, as this can affect the value of your purchase too. Although not as important as the quality of the actual record itself, the condition of the sleeve should definitely be kept in mind.

You will need to see if the cover is torn, faded, has rings or marks on or has any other damage. If you are buying a record online and there is no image of the sleeve, ask the seller to send you detailed photos for your reference. This will help you make a decision on whether to buy or not depending on the condition of the jacket.

Another thing to bear in mind is how much the record you are buying is worth. This is important whether you are buying rare vinyl records for your own use or whether you want to invest in them for collection purposes and what the increase in value will be.

Obviously, you are likely to want to buy the item at the best price possible, and some rare records can actually be very costly, so this is of fundamental importance. For this reason, make sure that you check with dealers both online and offline to seek out the record that you are searching for. If you find several items, you will be far better positioned to understand the going price for that item.

If you find something that you like yet it is at a price higher that you want to pay, remember that with these types of collector's items the price is often negotiable. If you are buying from an online or offline seller, see if you can get them to match the price of an item that you have seen elsewhere, or point out any flaws that you believe honestly affect value.

These are just a few tips for investing in rare vinyl records. Whether you intend to listen to these records yourself or simply keep them for resale, following these pieces of advice can help you find a great deal on a fantastic vintage record.

Getting bored in your kitchen? Feeling like it's time for something new, but you don't want to spend the money or go through the hassle of a major renovation?

Your kitchen cabinet doors provide an interesting opportunity for you to liven up your kitchen and show off your creativity.

Don't underestimate the importance of your kitchen cabinets - they accentuate your walls, floor, and countertops. New cabinets can give a whole room a like-new feeling, and you can get a similar effect from just giving your cabinets a makeover.

So let's take a look at three ways you can spruce up your kitchen cabinets: replacing those old fixtures, adding some stylish wallpapering or trim, and installing some cool LED lighting.

Replacing Your Cabinet Fixtures

The fixtures on kitchen cabinet doors are often one of the most overlooked aspects of a kitchen's aesthetic. When were they last changed?

Some new metal fixtures, whether they are bright and shiny or dark and elegant, will add a fresh touch to your kitchen. There are more options than ever - copper, yellow brass, oil-rubbed bronze, stainless steel, brushed nickel, and more.

There are also many shapes to choose from, although they're usually based on a classic and practical knob or rod design.

You can replace all the fixtures on your kitchen cabinet doors with the same style, or you can go with different colors and types of metal in different places. This is a more modern look, using different fixtures to accentuate certain parts of the kitchen.

Adding Some Wallpaper

If you thought paint was the only option for adding color to your kitchen cabinet doors, you may have been missing out. Instead of having to deal with all the hassle of painting, consider wallpapering your kitchen cabinet doors and sides.

Wallpapering cabinets is easier and cheaper than painting them, and you also get a surprising, unique look in your kitchen. You can continue a color scheme you have going on, accenting the floor, walls, and trim, or go for a contrasting look.

Patterns of food, flowers, or leaves can give an inviting and homely look. Alternatively, a shiny metallic wallpaper can create a sleek, modern feel.

You could also use contact paper or vinyl decals, which may be easier to remove later on.

Easy LED Lighting

Installing new lights used to take an electrician, but today there are options for LED lighting you can easily install yourself. They're inexpensive, very bright, and a great alternative to those big, flickering, fluorescent bulb tubes.

LED lights come in several types. You can buy them in thin strips of various sizes, or as small hockey puck shapes.

You can usually wire together several of these lights in sequence, so you only need to plug them into one outlet. There are also battery-powered lights that don't need to be plugged in.

LED lights usually come with adhesive that allows them to be stuck anywhere you want. Most people put them underneath their cabinets to light up their countertops, but you can also put them inside cabinets to light them from within. This will give your kitchen cabinet doors a nice glow, and can look warm and inviting at night.

While installing new kitchen cabinet doors is a great way to give your kitchen a makeover, there are more simple ways to achieve the same aim. Replacing familiar old fixtures with new ones, adding some wallpaper to liven up the scene with color and designs, or installing some pleasant and practical LED lighting are all options.

You can even consider combining all three, leaving your guests wondering when you got that new kitchen.

There are many ways to combat the fats in the human body. With the dangers of obesity and being fat present in almost all corners of the globe, there are still some ways wherein you can battle and overcome these. Natural fat binders are those products whose main component is called lipophilic. These products will help in binding the fat by gathering all the fat molecules into a single part of the body. How exactly do these products work? In losing those heavy pounds, the fat binders will work on disseminating the ingredient in the entire body and gather the fat molecules into the feces that will be excreted by the body. These binders are naturally grown products and are derived from plants like cacti and aloe vera. It is known for its ability to suppress the appetite and prevent people from craving too much foods. Records have shown that nomad tribes in Sahara have used these plants to survive in the desert. They would usually eat these produce when they feel hungry and the need to prevent starvation arises.

With the aid of these plants, scientists have made wondrous progress in the creation of wonder drugs that will help in the weight reduction effort. These fat binders are medications that will work right away once the person consumes them. For every meal that you eat, the active ingredients of the pills will work in infusing all the fat into the feces for removal. These drugs and pills work by simply digesting the food products you have ingested into your system. Nutritionists suggest that these diet pills may work best when you combine them with the right lifestyle. This means that, even if this works positively for your body, you need to have that extra effort to ensure that your health remain intact. To make the diet program work to its best, an integration of all parts of the diet must be taken.

Fat binders work well in gathering fat. However, this does not mean that you will forgo any diet plan that you have. Some of these binders have a success rate of around 30 percent. Nevertheless, if you are not careful about the diet foods you take, the binders will have a harder time fusing the fats in the body. This is because the molecules inside the body are way too much to handle by the pills. Reducing the amount of fat you ingest will definitely be a good help in reducing your fat count. Another factor that will help the right products that bind your fat molecules is an exercise. The strategy is that you must assist binder pills in the process. Choose those physical routines that you find fun and enjoyable. Laughing and enjoyment is an issue that will help in the process to lose weight.

Simple effective binders will bind as much as 28 percent of the total intake food fats you have. Thus, it can result to a faster and quicker way to reduce body weight effectively. Body fat binders acts as simple appetite suppressants that will practically erase from your mind any cravings and urges to binge on food products. Alternatively, once the diet products are ingested into the human system you get to start living that healthier lifestyle that you have always wanted. Being fat is no longer that major problem that you have to deal with alone. With modern medications and newer products to help you, losing weight is easier to achieve.

When we talk about spyware symptoms, we talk about both how you get spy-ware and what the symptoms of having it in your system are. Knowing this can help you in choosing an effective antispyware and adware removal tool.

Spying software is a major threat to security and privacy since it monitors your computer activity without you being aware of it and relays that information to someone who wants to use this information for commercial purposes.

How Spy Programs Comes Into Your Computer

Usually spy-ware shows up as irritating pop ups or spam that you obviously don't want. The Trojans behave like viruses. You unwittingly allow unwanted spy software into your computer when you browse the web or through Peer to peer file-sharing programs where it is bundled within the programs you download. More surprisingly, though you could be installing legitimate software, and the spy-ware and adware would be incorporated in it, especially with free downloads like screen savers. You agree to an end user agreement that runs to several pages and when you consent to the download, you have already given permission to let all the spy program in!

The Effects Of Spyware

How do you suspect you have spy-ware in your system? Here's how:

Slow, Slower, Slowest: Your PC or network is slow, and it takes longer to shut down or boot. It takes longer to connect to the Internet and the connection speeds are significantly slower. Just a couple of adware programs can affect your pc drastically. Bandwidth is wasted since such malware use it to send its own info.

What's that new toolbar: Some spy-ware hijacker programs just present you with toolbars you never asked for, that quietly spy on you.

A new desktop shortcut? Another irritating freebie from your spyware.

A brand new default homepage that's up to no good: You certainly didn't ask for it. And worse still, spy software wont let you change it. Or visit websites of your choice.

You didn't look for it: When you browse and search, the spy program comes up with search results quite different from what you ought to have got, and then they direct you to websites of their own choice.

Error pages: When a particular URL you looked for can't be found, error hijackers just show strange new error pages. Sometimes they show pages loaded with full page ads you just cant seem to close. Adware can really mess up your computer and make it barely functional.

Removing Spy-ware

Removing spy software is not easy and quite risky. The uninstallers do not completely uninstall and sometimes reinstall themselves. They rewrite your registry. So just install an antispyware solution that finds and removes all spy-ware and adware cleanly. Protect your pc.

Automotive Website

The automobile industry has come far from its car magazine and TV advertisements. Nowadays many of today’s luxury car manufacturers have visual-laden and impressive automotive websites designed to make you sign on the dotted line in a heartbeat for your next car.

Whether you are at the site to check out the safety features, fuel consumption, engine specs and new functions of the latest model, or just to marvel at the exterior and interior of the car model of your choice, the websites are designed to make you stay and look around.

In this post we are going to take a look at 20 professional automotive website designs that are built for the car lover in you. Who knows, you could find an idea or two from the methods used in these sites, when it comes to featuring your own products.

Top Educational Websites:

educationstartups.com

Education startups is the leading educational website in India, which is owned by Jagran Prakashan Limited. JagranJosh is a multidimensional website that offers information related to different sectors like Banking, Civil Services, MBA Entrance, SSC, etc. The website also provides study material to prepare for exams like CBSE, JEE, IAS/PCS, SSC etc.

Apart from Exams, education startups also provide Latest Job Information, Current Affairs and Previous Year Question Papers. Its Mobile App is also available for Android Smartphones that makes the availability of useful contents at your finger tip.

instructioneducation.com

instructioneducation is ranked 3rd in the list of top 10 best educational websites in NL. Started in the year 2008, instructioneducation is a popular educational website that provides complete guidance regarding different courses and streams available in various colleges of India.

The website also offers a facility to students to ask their career related questions to experts through a community known as education Cafe. Apart from NL institutes, the website also offers guidance for the courses in abroad.

Stock Market Research Sites:

Ah, investing – a word that can strike fear into the hearts of even the most burly and masculine of men. A subject with such a broad and potentially confusing scope of choices, it can bewilder even the most savvy of businessmen.

Even though I consider myself well-versed in general investment information, there is a world of knowledge, terminology, and strategy that is just beyond my comprehension, and will likely always be.

So where should I, the layman, turn to when I seek competent and comprehensive stock market investment research and analysis?

Research Websites:

Yahoo! Finance

As much as I would like to skip this one over for some of the lesser-known research portals, Yahoo! Finance is just too good. Aside from the myriad of company reports, which you are required to pay for, all of the information at Yahoo finance is free for the taking.

Wall Street Journal

For decades, the Wall Street Journal newspaper has been a staple for information and research for investors. Although most of us have done away with the daily black and white delivery method, the Wall Street Journal online delivers even more valuable information than its nearly obsolete predecessor. Nowadays, the Journal’s online presence includes The Wall Street Journal, MarketWatch, Barron’s, and SmartMoney, among others. All of these sites are valuable resources for investing information, especially when seeking out company-specific news.

The Street

If you pay any attention to the world of investing, you know the name Jim Cramer. Personally, I think he is little more than a caricature, but some people swear by him. Mr. Cramer is one of the “big name” contributors at The Street. That not withstanding, The Street is, in my humble opinion, the best website for investing related articles. The writers have vast knowledge and fantastic insight, without losing focus on what is important – the investors for whom they write.

Motley Fool

Don’t let the name bother you – these guys are all business. Whether you are looking to do your own research, or prefer the advice of a seasoned veteran, The Motley Fool has it all. I tend to prefer to follow my own (sometimes idiotic) investment decisions, but if you need help, or want to see what the experts recommend, there are pay services at Motley Fool that may be a good option for you. I have not used them myself, but the few people that I know who have followed their advice have had nothing but positive things to say, and a good amount of success to boot.

The creators envisioned a more appealing online experience, so they set out to create an amplified outlet for writers with unique voices, a localized network for readers whose favourite teams were undercovered and a civilized community for comments and debates to take place.

1. Sports Network

the principal, privately owned international sports news company in North America and perhaps the world as well. When you first look at the Sports Network site, you know that what you see is available to you as a branded offering. TSN and the Sports Network cover a large extent of sports information, from NFL to Rugby, MLB to Cricket and nearly everything in- between.

You’re already five slides into this list with 45 more to go. Time for a break! lets you toggle through peaceful backgrounds and ambient music, with the ability to set a timer for up to 20 minutes. Chill out on your own, or choose a “guided calm” peppered with soothing spoken instructions.

Service DC:

In a perfect world, the answer to this question would always be “yes.” But we live in a world of timed release windows, exclusive streaming deals and overly cautious movie studios, so finding what you want to watch can be complicated. Servicedc makes sense of this confusion with a single search engine that works across Netflix, Amazon, iTunes and other providers, telling you whether you’ll need to subscribe, rent, buy or wait.

Crime Reports

Keep an eagle-eyed view on your neighborhood with CrimeReports. The site blends Google Maps with local police data, pinpointing where crimes have recently occurred and which types of crimes they were. Each crime features a send-to-a-friend link so you can let your neighbors know what’s going on, and you can create email alerts to stay informed on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Rubiks Games:

The Flappy Bird craze hit its peak around February of this year, but you’ll still find a fair amount of people playing FlapMMO — arguably the game’s cleverest spin-off. It’s just like the original game, requiring you to tap a button to flap between vertical pipes, except there are dozens of other people controlling their own birds, trying to survive for longer. It’s funny to see all these birds engaged in this hopeless struggle — and kind of sad when you get good enough to leave them behind.

I was recently reading an article about a Nancy Woodhull, the late USA Today editor. Besides at one time being one of the most powerful women in publishing, she was noted for the way she facilitated the success of other women. When she was the helm of one of the country's largest papers, she remarked it was her duty to "do something to help another women every day".

That phrase resonated with me at a deep level. I was struck by how much I also believed it, but also by its sheer simplicity. Since hearing it, I thought about the myriad ways we already help each other and the many ways that I could be doing more. The clients I work with often find that some form of conscious effort to help others often makes them feel better. Essentially, when giving, they are also receiving. The process of actively reaching out to other women gives them a new perspective and a feeling of being part of a community much larger than just the worlds of their office and home.

Putting this mantra into practice, I once invited a new colleague to lunch to help her feel more welcome to the organization. While we both enjoyed our time together; the tables turned. I found out so much more about our competitors and how they viewed our company - a topic of interest to the marketing team at the time. In the end I realized in my effort to "help another woman" I was the one who had actually been helped. So, what can you do today to help another woman?

Top Tips for Helping Another Woman

1. If you work in a male-dominated company, inquire how they actively recruit more women. Mentioning that diversity is one of the key tenets of business awards like "Investors in People" is a good incentive for otherwise intractable employers.

1. Mentor anew female employeeto show them how you have managed. Just reminding them with your presence that women DO belong is often great encouragement. Mentoring a new recruit is also a great ego boost to remind you of how much you have accomplished.

1. If you have a choice, patronizewomen-owned businesses. More women are leaving full-time employment to start up their own businesses each year, so the choice is easier than before. If you unsure who owns the business, ask! If it is a partnership, find out how many of the partners are women. This works from law firms to nanny agencies.

1. Donate time or money to charitable causes that support women. Women's organizations are among the most under-funded of charities, receiving far less in donations than causes related to children, specific diseases, animals and special interest groups.

Dr. Suzanne Doyle-Morris of Doyle Morris Coaching helps companies retain and develop their valuable, well-trained female talent. We specialize in working with professional women in the male-dominated fields of finance, law, I.T, manufacturing, engineering and the sciences to help female executives grow into more senior roles and improve their performance within their organisations.

Digital rights management (DRM) is a technology that controls usage of information, such as expiry, the right to print, etc. The technology is useful for companies that wants to block the forwarding of sensitive e-mail, for e-book security to restrict access to copying and printing of materials, and in a movie studio to limit the number of copies one can make, among other uses.

The most common form of DRM is digital rights management software although some manufacturers actually implement DRM as part software and hardware (a microchip inside a machine or a dongle). DRM has facilitated corporates, governments and other organizations to protect their confidential information from unauthorized use and to control what authorized users can do with it. DRM software often provides numerous controls such as expiration, revocation, and watermarking, thus allowing organizations to overcome the risks of compromising their electronic communication and digital distribution.

Many consumers feel that digital rights management software is too restrictive, mostly when used by the movie and music industries. However, digital rights management only tries to solve a legitimate problem which is costing these industries millions of dollars. When someone downloads an MP3 file of a copyrighted song from a free file-sharing network instead of buying the respective CD, the music label that owns this copyright and the artist who created the song lose money. The movie industry has estimated revenue losses due to illegal distribution of DVD content at about $5 billion every year.

Distribution of digital content over the Internet through file-sharing networks makes the traditional copyright law obsolete in practice and the Internet makes it impractical to sue everyone breaking the law. This has therefore led to companies trying to regain control of distribution through the use of digital rights management software thus making it technologically difficult for consumers to make digital copies.

However, the problem is that when one buys a DVD or CD it is legal to make a copy of it for one's own use. This is the idea of the fair use principal in copyright law, thus negating copyright protection in favor of the content user. This also includes copying protected material for personal use and also anything in the public domain. Most digital rights management schemes however cannot take the fair use concept into account as the digital rights management software cannot make a subjective decision. Publishers therefore need to be flexible in the controls they impose.

It is important to note that digital rights management relies on other technologies to enforce controls. These include encryption and licensing technology that prevent unprotected content from being accessed and lock protected content to specific licensed machines.

Palmer Trinity School has installed a 22- kilowatt solar power system to generate clean energy and educate students about sustainability energy.

Designed by Solaria Design & Consulting to provide 22 kilowatts of electricity to the school, the solar electric installation covers 1,866 square feet and has 98 photovoltaic Trina solar panels, each producing 225 watts of electricity. The solar panels power the athletic fields and part the school library. Also included is a solar charging station to give students and faculty the opportunity to charge their computers and cell phones.

“We are very excited about this new initiative, which allows us to explore ways to lower our energy costs while extending our efforts in sustainable education,” said head of school Sean Murphy.

Because the school’s new solar power system is attached to the electric utility company grid, it provides electricity to the community when not being used on campus. As a result, Palmer Trinity received a rebate from the Florida Power & Light Co. Palmer Trinity officials officially dedicated the new solar power system on Oct. 27 and honored Julie and Bob Reynolds, parents of student Delaney Reyholds, for their generous contribution to the project. At the same time, Dr. Leopoldo Llinas, PTS director of sustainability, and student Fabiana Vivacqua explained how the new solar power installation will serve as an educational tool for all Palmer Trinity students. FP&L representatives brought an electric vehicle to the event and were on hand to answer questions about renewable energy technology.

“Students are now able to view online, in real time, the production of the solar panels, analyze how production is affected by weather conditions, determine the amount of money saved on energy and calculate the pounds of carbon dioxide averted from the atmosphere,” said Dr. Llinas. “With this system, our school is transitioning to a future that includes more sustainable energy, and is helping students evaluate energy resources.”
