The Minister for the Environment has presented an overly optimistic view of the impact of noise from wind turbines on neighbors. The noise limits are not as strict as claimed and a larger percentage of neighbors will likely experience annoyance from the noise than acknowledged. While the Minister stated only 4-11% of neighbors would be annoyed, when considering different levels of annoyance both indoors and outdoors, the percentage of annoyed neighbors is actually much higher, around 22-42%. The noise limits also may not be properly enforced and exceeded at times. Overall, the reality of the impact on neighbors is greater than the picture painted by the Minister.

The document is the transcript of a Senate committee hearing on a bill related to noise from wind farms. It includes an introduction by the chair and opening statements from two witnesses:
1) Dr. Christopher Hanning, a retired sleep medicine consultant, stated that industrial wind turbines disturb sleep and health at greater distances and noise levels than currently permitted standards. He said setback distances need to be increased, especially for larger turbines.
2) Professor Alec Salt, an ear specialist, said that while low frequency sound from wind turbines may not be heard, the inner ear can still respond to low frequencies at levels below what is heard. He argued this contradicts assumptions that inaudible low frequencies cannot affect people.
Colons can be used after an independent clause to introduce a list, before a quote, and to separate a verb from its object. However, colons should not be used to separate a preposition from its object, after "such as", or in a way that does not complete the sentence with the introduced element. Common misuses of colons include using a period instead of colon before a list and misspelling words like "dining".

The Money Pad is presented as a more secure alternative to existing payment methods that aims to facilitate instant electronic transactions.
The document discusses how wind turbine development in Scotland is damaging rural tourism. It notes that while Scotland was granted UNESCO Biosphere Reserve status in 2012 to promote sustainable development and tourism, the large number of wind turbines being built may undermine these goals. Specifically, it states that the Scottish government has approved over 50GW of wind farm capacity across 39 onshore wind projects and has another 10 overhead line applications in progress. However, the rapid growth of wind turbines is harming Scotland's landscapes and tourism industry, which is worth millions to the economy. Surveys also suggest that 20% of tourists dislike wind farms and so their spending is at risk of being lost.
The document discusses wind power potential in Massachusetts and the eastern US. It finds that Massachusetts has an onshore wind capacity potential of just 1 GW, which could provide an average of only 5% of the state's electricity due to wind's low capacity factor. Developing this resource would require constructing around 33 large wind farm projects across the state's mountain ridges. However, utility-scale wind development faces issues including environmental impacts, impacts on tourism and property values, high costs, and questions around how much it could actually contribute to reducing emissions regionally and nationally. The document examines these issues in further detail.

ECM and Open Source Software: A Disruptive Force in ECM SolutionsJeff Potts
Open source software is finally getting the recognition it deserves from analysts like Forrester and Gartner as a disruptive force in IT. Over the years, open source has “climbed up the stack” from operating systems to databases and now to business applications where it has established a firm foothold in the content management space.What should enterprises know about open source content management? Is it really just for Web Content Management (WCM) or does it meet the needs of broader Enterprise Content Management (ECM) deployments? Arelarge enterprises doing big, meaningful content management projects with open source or is its appeal limited to subsets of the market? What about Enterprise 2.0 initiatives? Can you assemble an Enterprise 2.0 solution from open source components? How does it compare with something like Sharepoint?

Mission critical infrastructure systems
In order to better meet the integration needs of our clients we are multi-
platform, multi-language development shop.
Software engineering
the development process
Our development process is designed for openness, with our clients able
to see the scoreboards of our continuous build and test systems. At the
conclusion of the project we deliver the tools and the process, as well as
the product, so that our client can seamlessly assume responsibility for the
evolution of the project.
Knowledge transfer
A third of our staff are also our instructors and mentors. They have advanced
degrees, which we believe shows a commitment to learning. Superior com-
munications skills are required for these roles.
We continuously evaluate new technologies and techniques to help our clients
make wise choices. In keeping with our philosophy of openness and knowled-
ge transfer we publish our findings monthly in two widely read journals, “The
Java Newsbrief” (which was recently renamed “Software Engineering Tech
Trends” to reflect its broader role.) and “The Middleware Newsbrief.”

Scope of Services
OCI offers consulting, product development in our internal, multi-platform de-
velopment center, educational services and staff augmentation.
Product range
OCI develops and provides commercial grade support for open source tech-
nologies that are core to the markets we serve. This includes stable, version
managed releases, high quality documentation, training classes, consulting
and service level support agreements, including 24 by 7. Technologies include:
open source CORBA products such as TAO (The ACE ORB), JacORB, OpalORB
and the portable pattern libraries, Boost and ACE. More recently OCI develo-
ped and added support for another open source middleware implementation,
that of the OMG DDS specification known as OpenDDS. OCI also provides
and supports an unencumbered JBoss implementation for free redistribution.
Our software engineering curricula is one the most comprehensive offerings
in the Midwest with some 60 discrete offerings, organized into tracks. We
partner with Washington University in St. Louis or CAIT (Center for the Ap-
plication of Information Technology) to provide continuing education clas-
ses for graduate software engineers employed by local companies. We also
deliver many of our classes privately to global clients.

Representative Projects
Bloomberg Financial
The client required a way to streamline their aggregation of market data
from diverse sources into a unified stream for secure delivery to subscribers
in accordance with their subscription agreement terms. Their service aggre-
gated some 40 terabytes of data per day and delivered it via 125 thousands
messages per second. Previously it had delivered the data to Bloomberg
proprietary hardware. The new system had to be standards based and able
to be viewed on normal industry workstations.
OCI designed a platform neutral system in which data was tagged, auto-
matically filtered and combined into messages defined such that users only
received what they paid for and no bandwidth was needlessly consumed by
messages that were subsequently discarded.
Orbital Express
Boeing required a mission planning infrastructure for a low earth orbit (LEO)
maneuverable satellite system. This system had to support satellites that could
maneuver extensively in orbit for repurposing and refueling. This was intended
to be the first reusable open satellite services framework that Boeing could le-
verage across other projects. It made extensive use of standards and real-time,
open source technologies.
Iridium Next
Boeing required that the previous Iridium mission planning and development
infrastructure be upgraded from older proprietary products to more contem-
porary open source, standards based products. The new framework for this
new constellation of satellites had to be evolved and maintained at a fraction
of the previous cost. OCI provided software and systems engineers who not
only had worked on the original Iridium project (from 1994 to 1999), but were
also familiar with the new open source products that were to be inserted.
8. Object Computing
Future Combat Systems (FCS)
OCI provided a team of 15 to 20 engineers for over three years to develop
critical real-time, multi-language components for the System of Systems
Common Operating Environment (SOSCOE) infrastructure. Much of the Java
infrastructure leveraged open source technologies that OCI had utilized pre-
viously. In 2008 OCI received from the US Amy its Future Combat Systems
Small Business Supplier of the Year Award.
Breakwater Trading
The Chicago based client was a proprietary trading company that required a
trading infrastructure which could accommodate a ten fold increase in volume
and a dramatic reduction in response time latency to market changes. The
company went from trading $2-3 billion of face value positions each day to
that of $30 billion. This was accomplished by utilizing real-time C++ compo-
nents, multi-threading, an in-memory data base and best of class, open source
pattern libraries such as ACE and Boost both of which OCI supported.
BAE Systems
Continuous support over many years for multiple software defined radio
projects (US Army projects) and airborne navigational systems (USAF Pro-
jects). BAE utilized OCI’s expertise with multiple real-time operating sys-
tems, digital signal processors, RT CORBA, parallel processing, and the C/
C++ language.
Alcatel Lucent (ALU)
Provide support for various open source products that ALU is now inclu-
ding into their line of telecommunication products. The client is gradually
replacing proprietary products with open source equivalents. OCI provides
advice on the selection and then assists in migration and incorporation of
the products into the ALU product range around the globe. The intent is to
dramatically reduce their COGS or cost of goods sold with minimal risk.

10. Object Computing
OCI was founded in 1993 and is a privately held Missouri company. Dr. Moshiri
the CEO and founder of the company spent many years in academia and the
aerospace industry. His experiences led him to found OCI just at the time
Object Oriented (OO) and middleware technologies were becoming main-
stream. OCI software engineers (SEs) were some of the very early adopters,
and proponents of Java, leading to Sun Microsystems (now Oracle) awarding
OCI one of Sun’s first and few Authorized Java Center (AJC) designations.
OCI has been both a member of the Object Management Group (OMG)
and a developer of OO products based on its standards for many years. OCI
is an employee owned company with it commitment to its employees and
their families. Over time our engineers progress to become partners in the
company. This approach results in high staff retention rates. OCI staff both
implement OMG technologies in products and implement them with clients
on projects. This gives OCI a unique practitioner’s perspective.

enix AZ. OCI financial systems are GAO approved for cost-plus US Govern-
ment contracts.
OCI has one of the largest software engineering curricula in the Midwest
with multiple tracks across various languages, modeling and development
methodologies. Approximately one third of OCI’s staff has advanced de-
grees, develop courseware, write monthly SE papers, and instruct.
In 2008 the US Army Future Combat Systems Program Office awarded OCI
with its small business of the year designation, in recognition of its superior
contributions to the Systems of Systems Common Operating Environment
(SOSCOE). OCI self-managed teams performed their tasks in the OCI St.
Louis development center which was approved by the US Army for unclas-
sified, sensitive, NOFRN development activities.
The OCI Advantage: clients use OCI supported open source, standards based
products to ensure they have the highest possible quality infrastructure, with
