Posted: 03 Nov 2009 09:29 PM PST Hi Darron, When I first put the membership graph on the front page, I was linking live to zoho, which is what I presumed was causing you trouble. This time around it is a local file so didn't think you or anyone else would have any trouble viewing it. It is a png file, but all browsers should be able to view "png" files without any difficulty - the banner which appears on every page is a "png" file. I have deleted the image of the culvert, and the graphs will move down the page and disappear from the front page automatically as new news items are added. I hear what you are saying about making sure the front page doesn't get too busy, and I hate sites chock full of flash animations and the like that take ages to load, but on the other hand doesn't having just text make it a bit bland and boring? Like Darron, I'd like to know what everyone one else thinks? |

Posted: 05 Nov 2009 04:03 PM PST It appears that originally a Penstock Valve was a rudimentary gate slide in a frame that could be mounted or attached to a penstock to control isolate the flow. Do other people think that a knife gate valve (type) that you would connect to a pipe (maybe also called a penstock) into a sewerage station for example could also be called a Penstock valve (being its use). Apenstock from my research appears to be a pipe, channel or sluice used to direct flow to a desired spot. Forum category: Hidden / Per page discussions Forum thread: Penstock Valve |

Posted: 04 Nov 2009 06:06 PM PST Determining accurate or even realistic unit rates seems to be a big issue for local government. I know for a fact it's an issue for both Bundaberg Regional Council, and for some of our neighbours, and I have seen a number of discussion about it on various other forums. I know it is true that the cost of an activity will vary considerably from location to location, but all-the-same I think an open database of typical unit rates for those works regularly undertaken by Councils would be a very useful resource for many Councils. I have been thinking about this for a while now, and I think I have come up with a good way of getting the project happening. If you are interested, please check out the Unit Rate page, for more information. |
