Last month I went on a weekend outing with a bunch of friends. We were a mix of all sorts married, single, newly married, about to get married and a couple with a kid. Stuffed in 3 cars we drove from Mumbai to Panchgani and most of the group was cranky because of the long drive and also because we got up early.
The only parents in our group knew how to keep the kid quite. They were carrying a big bag of goodies with them. All kinds of junk food from sweets, chips, biscuits, namkeens everything a person on diet is not suppose to eat was in that bag. I named that bag a dentist's nightmare but didn't share it out loud with the group. Yes there were a couple of crayons in the bag with a sketch book but the child was least interested in art. He would not even look at the wrapper of the treat he opened. Just gulp it down and go for another.
The parents were non stop giving him treats packed in all kind of wrappers. He was unwrapping one and throwing it in the car. When I asked him why he is throwing the wrappers here and there he told me because the window is closed. I looked at the mother and she was least interested. As long as he child was eating he was not bothering her and she was catching up with her sleep in the car while the apple of her eyes was playing garbage tornado.
I picked up the biggest bag which was a jumbo size chips bag and started collecting wrappers from all over the car. I told the little boy to put his next empty wrapper in that big chips bag so that we can dispose it properly in a dustbin at the food court where we were planning to stop. He simply replied "No!" and threw the wrapper at me. The parents didn't try to discipline him and I had no idea how to handle this situation. I could barely keep my cool.
The sun was rising and we took a break in Lonavala at a tea stall near the highway. The kid got out of the car with his precious bag of goodies and I got down with the garbage. When I was going to throw the bag of chips in the dustbin near the tea stall, he snatched it from me ad started throwing the garbage everywhere on the side of the road. The stall owner yelled out don't do that it will attract monkeys. I looked at his mother and she nicely told him to stop and sit in the car which he ignored. She was even buying him more treats at the stall.
The stall owner was right, garbage did attract monkeys. They came in numbers and we all held to our belongings because they are famous to snatch anything they can. After realising that the wrappers were empty they came closer to see if we had any food on us. The boy with a big bag of treats got their attention. They all rushed at him and he screamed and ran towards his father. The gang of monkeys followed him. His father picked him up and started shooing then shouting on the monkeys. His mother also ran for the rescue.
Everyone in the group was trying to find something to scare the monkeys away. They were not budging. They had their eyes set on his bag of treats and were not leaving the poor family. Someone yelled throw the bag away…far away. The father pulled that bag and threw it as far as possible. Monkeys ran towards the bag and finally we could see the family. They were scratched, slapped, scared and the boy's t-shirt was torn a bit. They looked like they have been through hell and this all happened in just few minutes. So quick that we could not even react.
When everything was quite again I went to the shaken boy and said, "you know if only you would have let me thrown your garbage in the bin". He looked at me in tears and said, "I am sorry. I will never throw garbage here and there again." The mother was shocked. It was his first "I am sorry" statement. The family was changed on their way back home. I wish every Indian learns the lesson of not being a litterbug at a young age. Let's stop being so ignorant and arrogant. Let's keep our country clean. It is time to change our image. I am highly impressed with "The Great Indian Litterbug" initiative taken by Times of India and of course by "The Swachh Bharat Abhiyan" by our Hon. Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
This article is especially written for the "The Great Indian Litterbug" campaign by Times of India and Indiblogger.

The majority of consumers are not concerned with seeing popular health plans in new health exchanges, according to new survey results from HealthPocket.
With two weeks until the first exchanges open on October 1, concerns lingered regarding decisions to not apply or to withdraw applications by some major brand names, such as Aetna and UnitedHealthcare, and how that would affect consumer activity. However, 69.5 percent of respondents said this would not deter them or make them feel like they weren't getting the best deal possible.
The poll results suggest consumers are willing to trust that the plans that have agreed to participate in this restructured environment will create competition without the presence of several big brands.
Despite consumer optimism, the lineup of carriers remains incomplete, and results will depend on location, with anywhere from one to 15 options being made available.
The report stated that United will be participating in marketplaces in no more than 12 states. Aetna will participate in no more than nine states. Indeed, in many states carriers electing not to participate in the exchanges can instead sell their plans outside of exchanges. While these off-exchange plans must still comply with the requirements of Obamacare, some of the major brands that are not participating in exchanges are expected to offer their products in this way.
Results are based on 697 responses to a nationwide online survey conducted over the course of four days earlier this month.

Peanut Butter
Get everything together ahead of your project. There is nothing worse than jumping into something only to realize you cannot finish it. Make yourself a list and check it twice before you start your project.
To create a great bird feeder, begin with a single pine cone, and then add peanut butter to the outside of it. Roll the sticky pinecone in birdseed. The seeds will stick to the cone, even after the peanut butter dries. Then you can attach a string and hang if from your favorite tree for the birds to feast on.

Don't throw packaging away from new items. Almost anything you recycle or throw out can be reused in a project. Set a side a dedicated area like a box or a cabinet to store these items, and then look carefully through them when you have free time to think about what you can make.
Put up an ad on an online classified site where people are always looking to buy, trade, or give things away. You might just surprise yourself at what you discover. Other people may be trying to sell of give away whatever it is you are looking for, so you won't be able to beat the price.

Last night was the launch party for Delilah S. Dawson's book, Wicked After Midnight, at FoxTale Book Shoppe in Woodstock, GA. If you're into steampunk, vampires, carnies, or just plain fun books, then you should check out Dawson's Blud series. It was a costume-optional party, which totally meant it was time for me to break out the make-up and hair spray. I had Greg take a few pre-party pictures just so I could get documented proof of my awesome hair before it fell.
The party was hopping and super fun. And seriously folks, GO BUY DELILAH'S BOOKS!

Conan O'Brien Is 'Really Glad' for Stephen Colbert
"As a comic and a human being."
Conan O'Brien wasn't up to take over The Late Show, he told the Associated Press. "I'm very happy where I am," said the former Tonight Show host. He gave his blessing to CBS's new hire (and onetime dance rival) saying, "I love Stephen. Stephen is great. I'm a huge fan of his as a comic and a human being. I think it's fantastic and I'm really glad he got the job, and I look forward to seeing his show." O'Brien will be at the helm of the upcoming MTV Movie Awards and, according to him, we have lots of fire displays, a new record, and some Kate Upton leering to look forward to. Should be swell!

UPDATED APRIL 16, 2016: Although the FBI backed out of the hearing with Apple the day before court, the saga continues and more cases are happening and will happening (and both sides have been asked to testify before congress next week) and I wanted to update this post on understanding the difference between security in the digital realm and security in the physical realm with a video made recently by CP Grey on this very topic, called ; Should all locks have keys? Phones, Castles, Encryption, and You.
I've been reading everything I have time to read on the Apple-FBI case where the FBI has publicly asked Apple to build a new version of their operating system with a "backdoor" to install on an iPhone used by dead terrorists so they can have a better chance at breaking into it. The FBI has warrants and permission from the legal owner of the device and Apple has helped in every way possible since the start of the investigation into the terrorists, but is now being asked (being given an Order) to help in a way currently not possible – so, they're being asked to build a new way of breaking in. They haven't stated whether they can actually build such a thing, they simply refused on principle and very publicly.
While this post isn't a summary of the situation – you can read up on it here (I may write a guide to it with the help of our resident lawyer Paul Creech, but we're betting others will do a better job that we can link to soon… maybe)
This post is a commentary on Orin Kerr's latest post in a wonderful series he's been writing on the FBI-Apple security stand-off, coming from the legal perspective and attempting from his viewpoint to clear the air of PR nomenclature to the facts that will matter in court and congress. His latest post relates to policy and the idea of Physical Box Security entitled "Preliminary thoughts on the Apple iPhone order in the San Bernardino case: Part 3, the policy question"
I think he brings up a hugely important element in the case, but I think he's missing an important part of understanding Physical Box Security. No matter how you slice it, this case will set a precedent, though some argue over which one it would set.
He asks what might be the important question
The question is, what is the optimal amount of physical box security?
He defines Physical Box Security
I use that term to mean the degree of control that a person exercises over others opening his movable property — such as a box, suitcase, computer, knapsack, package or cellphone — when another person has physical access to the property.
He runs through the relatively low-level of security we've had in our physical world up to this point in time in history, and characterizes the relative security of the iPhone as on a whole other tier unseen in history.
Until computers, levels of physical box security have generally stayed around a 1 or 2 or 3, with an occasional rare 4 or 5. Computers have changed that incredibly quickly. The iPhone is the most obvious implementation of the shift. Suddenly a large proportion of the population is walking around with physical boxes in their pockets that might have had a security score of (say) 7 in 2014 and (say) 8 today. Looking ahead, a 9 in 2017 seems possible, with 9.5 or 9.7 looking possible for a few years beyond that. It's an incredible change.
He therefore re-stated the impending question as
The big policy question in the Apple case is this: To the extent governments can control it, what is the optimal amount of physical box security that people should generally have in their phones? Is a 4 the best? Maybe 6? Is 10 the ideal? And is it practically possible to have different levels of physical box security in different contexts?
He points out that, at least in the past, the US government has been very much against the idea of any technology that would be perfectly secure, a "10" on his scale. And so since it has rejected the idea of total encryption, how much security is it going to be, especially in light of the new frontier of security that an iPhone can have that he argues thinks like little diary locks can't have.
In a sense, he affirms that idea that the case is about encryption, but states that for all intents and purposes, the government already has taken a stand on encryption in a "total" sense, that it's not what they want, as seen in past cases like the CALEA act of 1994 where congress made sure Internet and such service could still be tapped since they didn't want them "10" level completely secure.
His whole point to is to get us to think about the issue as a complex and hard one
My bottom line is that I don't know the answer. I want to convince you, however, that it's a really hard problem. The answer hinges on unknown answers to empirical questions and predictions about the future. I don't know what answer is best because I don't know how the empirical questions shake out and I don't have a crystal ball. My goal in this post won't be to provide answers, but instead to suggest a way to think about the questions.
So I don't take issue with is answers as much as with one of the key ways he want's us to think about the question of physical box security.
In my reading, he's totally missing the key element of access in Physical Box Security, and how, besides having the unprecedented ability to have "high physical box security" there is also unprecedented ease of access through interest connections that color the question quite a it.
I see Orin as focusing too much on the locking mechanism itself. A diary might have a little "1" level lock, but the total Physical Box Security goes up meaningfully in context, because you can put in another safe, in a house, or hide it (maybe buried with treasure), and increase it's security by physical limits, especially distance. In Oklahoma the Chinese government would need to do a fair bit of work to get that diary than if it was on a government desk in Beijing. All that puts the total physical box security of the little diary actually much higher in an real-world non-vacuum scenario. But where iPhones can have much better "base" physical box security – a "7" perhaps- because in its most essential functional case it lives connected to networks, and various ones, there is unprecedented ease of access to an iPhone that a diary is safe from. It's crazy easier for China to get into an Oklahoma iPhone then an Oklahoma diary, and in that context, the iPhone's total physical box security is dramatically lowered and the diary's is raised. Physical limits help a diary be more secure but they mean very little to connected devices.
In fact, I think the whole point of the extreme security on an iPhone has to do with that crazy ease of access through the networks. It doesn't even require human effort. You could (and people do) write scripts/etc. that do the work for you. Bot-nets are created in the same or analogous fashion, not by people individually lifting even a finger to infect your PC, but.
Since people don't have to lift a finger to infect your computer (they can write a chunk of code and turn it loose) the physical box security level for connected devices needs to be exponentially greater or we couldn't trust even a casual iMessage from another person or do banking online. We simply couldn't be connected at any real level of safety to make connecting useful.
Therefore to truly compare the iPhone's security level and the diary's security level means to really consider the diary's monumental security advantage – despite it's little lock.
Is the iPhone really some lock box with unheard of levels of security or a vulnerable connected device? With the level of hacking happening in the world it's obvious how quickly that question becomes rhetorical -and that the iPhone needs higher physical box security levels to combat the total security level that's tremendously lowered by virtue of its connected use and ease of access.
Two notes: I'm not a lawyer or implying that the level "access" that obviously impacts how we think of Physical Box Security has any bearing in the US courts. I'd argue It should have an impact on policy and lawmaking. Secondly, I'm not a security expert and try to speak commonly, so my dad can understand, and so any nitpicking over my use of words like "access" and the actual security/encryption lingo will fall on deaf ears as I avoided such words on purpose.

July 01, 2014 17:00 ET
EXTON, PA--(Marketwired - Jul 1, 2014) - WPCS International Incorporated (NASDAQ: WPCS), which specializes in contracting services for communications infrastructure and the development of a Bitcoin trading platform, today announced that its special meeting of stockholders scheduled for, and convened on July 1, 2014, was adjourned due to the lack of a requisite quorum. To date, the Company has received approximately 30.6% of the required 33 1/3% shareholder vote necessary to conduct the special meeting. Only stockholders of record on the record date of April 25, 2014 are entitled to, and are being requested to, vote. The date of the special meeting has been rescheduled for July 15, 2014.
Sebastian Giordano, Interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The Company is very close to gaining a quorum and, and the majority of the votes cast are in favor of the proposals. Whether you are in favor of the proposals or not, every vote is very important. The strategic initiatives include the approval of the sale of the unprofitable Australia Operations and to stem future losses related to this business, and to eliminate the future cash payments of the remaining severance due the Company's former CEO. In addition, the proposal to increase our authorized shares will enable the Company to potentially eliminate its senior secured convertible notes and provide for future growth capital."
The special meeting will take place on July 15, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) at the offices of Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP at 61 Broadway, 32nd Floor, New York, NY 10006 to allow additional time for the stockholders to vote on the proposals set forth in the Company's proxy statement filed with the SEC, which is available at http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1086745/000114420414025401/v376074_def14a.htm.
The Company encourages all stockholders who have not yet voted to do so before July 14, 2014 at 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time). Stockholders should follow the instructions printed on their proxy card in order to vote. If you need any assistance in voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitor, Innisfree M&A Incorporated, at (888) 750-5834.
No changes have been made in the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the special meeting. The Company's proxy statement and any other materials filed by the Company with the SEC remain unchanged and can be obtained free of charge at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Question about Viking Stove/Oven/Range Timer Knob - PB010185BK
Three timer knobs. One with clock and buzzer timer. One with running man underneath that pops out when time hits clock time and third has stop sign underneath and pops out as well. The third says push for manual. A guest pushed one of these and now every combination of turning and pushing these timers causes the broil and bottom burner to work. Or just the broil. There seems to be no way to turn of the broil.
Posted by caissier on
i am having the exact same problem, someone please help
same prob
the timers are set up so the oven can cook and then keep things warm until you get home. My problem is the bottom heater in the oven won't turn on enough to heat the oven, its limited to keeping things warm. This has happened several times over the years and I've never been able to fix it without the instructions which are now in a file cabinet in a storage locker.
The 3 buzzers you describe are the same on my oven. Someone tried to use the timer and now the stove won't heat up and no amount of twisting and turning will get the oven to heat up. I was planning Easter dinner. Any help would be appreciated.
I have the same stove, and just had the same problem. I looked all over the internet to try to find an answer, and then went back to my stove to check the serial number and where the fuses are was the instructions printed on the stove itself.
1. The timer start knob (the one with little running guy picture) must NOT be pushed in. If it is, turn it slowly until it snaps out.
2. The timer stop knob (the one with the picture of the stop sign) must be completely pushed in.
I hope that helps everyone out!
Posted on Nov 10, 2009
I had a similar problem. The solution was simple and had to do with the knobs as well. You have to make sure that "cooking" know is set to MANual otherwise the oven will not work.
Thanks for helping!

As the Olympic flame has made its way from Athens to Vancouver, British Columbia, some market watchers have asked: Is the torch for brand building during the games flickering?
The Winter Olympics, opening next month, focuses the world spotlight on the ski slopes and ice rinks — with an attendant concentration in the media on athletes. NBC Universal has announced it will air more than 835 hours of Olympic coverage on its networks (more than the Turin and Salt Lake City games combined), and has been heavily promoting its coverage. But a slow start to ad sales has meant the network is taking a hit in the wallet: Jeffrey Immelt, president of NBC parent company General Electric, has been quoted as saying the network will probably lose "a couple hundred million bucks" on the event.
Despite the drop in ad dollars, many footwear companies are still working hard to get their product front and center.
Much of the footwear story in Vancouver will be focused on the technical boots and skates that the athletes use in cold weather. Two major athletic brands have rolled out new technical footwear for the event — Adidas is debuting a luge shoe that has been remodeled to allow athletes to walk more easily, and Nike is creating a shoe specifically for skeleton athlete Katie Uhlaender, neither of which will be commercially available.
But for many companies, opportunities to tout their athletes or promote a new technology that can be then sold to the masses could be challenging.
Sam Poser, an analyst at Sterne Agee who covers the outdoor and athletic markets, said that it's difficult for a company's products or logo to make a big splash. "I would say that's more the rule, not the exception," he said. "[For most companies], it's a big nada."
That hasn't stopped brands from trying to get exposure. New York fashion house Ralph Lauren is again providing the official looks for the opening ceremony — traditionally one of the most-watched segments — for the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic teams, as well as creating a line of casual looks for wear in the Olympic Village. Items from both collections, including full-grain leather boots with the Olympic logo on the shaft, will be available next month at Ralph Lauren stores, as well as select Macy's in the U.S. and Hudson's Bay locations in Canada.
That's a strategy that can have some payoff, according to Matt Powell, an analyst at SportsOneSource. "Exposure on television is always a good thing for brands. I'm not sure there's a lot of value beyond that," he said. "But if you want to get people's attention, then it starts to have some validity."
L.A.-based sneaker brand Creative Recreation is getting in on the action behind the scenes, working with one of the games' major sponsors to shoe the company's male and female volunteers. (Olympic Committee advertising regulations prevent Creative Rec from identifying the partner.) The prestige of the association can pay off, said Christian Lefebvre, of LEF Industries, the Canadian distributor of Creative Rec, who played down the sales effect of the deal. "We expect some positive impact on a regional level from the people who will be there onsite, but I don't foresee anything [major]," he said, adding that he also does not expect the move to broaden distribution. (The brand is currently sold in Canadian department store Holt Renfew and key independents, including Vancouver shop Gravity Pope.) However, he said, working with a major corporate partner and with the Olympics gives the fledgling brand credibility.
"It's a great way for us to benefit from the worldwide brand exposure we [otherwise] cannot afford right now," Lefebvre said.
Vancouver-manufactured Dayton Boots has a similar goal: to take advantage of American's attention on Vancouver to penetrate the U.S. and world markets.
"What we want to do is to take advantage of the same kind of energy and endorsement that [Ugg] enjoyed from the games in Sydney," Stephen Encarnacao, CEO of Dayton, told Footwear News. "It was a halo equation — Aussies are cool; Aussies wear Uggs. What we're hoping for is Canadians are cool, and real Canadians wear Daytons." To capitalize, he said, the brand has advertised in Men's Journal.
However, Encarnacao said, there are no guarantees that those efforts will directly impact sales or even awareness. In fact, he added that he has been surprised by the lack of media coverage of the local community and local businesses.
Still, Encarnacao said Dayton's store, which coexists with the brand's factory-showroom in East Vancouver, will run additional promotions to bring in people. "[But] I don't expect to see the kinds of crowds that have been projected," he said.
And crackdowns from the local Olympic Organizing Committee have made many local businesses wary of invoking the name of the games at all. At the Vancouver locations of John Fluevog, stickers say, "John Fluevog Vancouver welcomes the world to the word we can't say" (with the first five Os designed to resemble the famous rings in the event's logo).
Stephen Bailey, marketing director at John Fluevog, said the store bolstered inventories at the two Vancouver locations, "but we have made a point of buying heavier in things we have already proven [to sell], which is unusual for us, to play it safe," he said. And Bailey added that the shop would almost certainly place a display in its 50-foot windows to play up the brand's Canadian heritage while welcoming visitors to the city.
"It seems silly not to wrap [that window] to our advantage," he said. "But we don't really know [if it will help]. We'll find out after it's over."

A New Look and Feel
Grab bars and handrails are not usually a topic of conversation at cocktail parties. In fact, it's taboo subject matter since it is usually the first weapon you purchase in the war for independence. However, it can feel like you are waiving the white flag. When people leave your party they might say, "It's happening to them…thank God it's not us". It signifies weakness to some.
The world no longer wants a stainless steel grab bar from a big box store, but people often don't realize there are better options. It is our job to get design oriented product solutions that don't make us look like victims. We are so striving to invent the grab bar that does not look like a grab bar. Universal Design meets fashion.
Industrial designers are working on this since grab bars are starting to hit critical mass residentially and commercially. Residentially, there are some new solutions that we are offering that are fashionable. We are working on new product ideas that offer a better design signature.
New and Interesting Design
Grab bars and hand rails provide both assistance and confidence for those moments in your bathroom where that extra assurance is always needed. We have an extensive array of finishes, textures, designs, configurations, and colors to ensure our commitment to choice and safety. Our products are manufactured and tested to meet safety guidelines and high standards, providing optimum quality and strength for the user.
Fold-up Support Bars
Fold-up support bars with or without legs make ergonomic sense. They allow for easier transfer to the toilet or a shower seat while maintaining balance, shifting weight, and lessening fatigue during the process.
The fold-up support bar is underutilized in North America. Fold-up support bars are in every public restroom I have used in Europe. They are placed on both sides of the toilet to benefit whichever is the stronger arm. Since most accidents happen in bathrooms; slipping and falling are the most prevalent mishaps. One of the most common accidents beyond slipping and falling is getting onto and off of the toilet.
The Safety of Fold-Up Bars
Fold-up bars help the customer manage the space since they move out of the way, a key feature for meeting the needs of multiple users with different abilities. The weight load capacity ranges from 220 to 440 pounds (when properly installed).
Most occupational therapists will specify a fold-up bar with a leg. These fold-up bars can manage heavier weight; the legs direct the weight to the floor rather than the wall. More often than not this customer is physically challenged and putting their full weight on the bar.
We are working on new products that have unique materials, textures, and finishes.

Part I. Homogeneous and Quasi-homogeneous Reactors Section 111. Reactors Fueled with Molten-salt Solutions
Charles E. Teeter, James A. Lecky, and John H.Martens
Technical Publications Department
The reactor concepts described in this section utilize a fluid fuel consisting of a fissionable material dissolved in a carrier of molten salt. Some, such concepts also call for a molten salt as a primary coolant.
H. G. Maceherson has reviewed the technology of molten-salt reactors.
The fissionable compound usually chosen is uranium tetrafluoride.2 Uranium fluorides other than the tetrafluoride have the disadvantages of higher volatility, instability, or corrosivity. Chlorides or fluorides as solvents have been given the most consideration because of the need for radiation stability and high solubility. The chlorides are used for fast reactors, and the fluorides, because of their low cross sections for thermal neutrons, are best for thermal and epithermal reactors.
Compounds other than fluorides and chlorides have been suggested, including phosphates, sulfates, sulfide, hydrosulfides ,and hydroxides, Molten fluoride mixtures, e.g. LiF-NaF, have the most desirable properties: they dissolve adequate amounts of fuel; they have satisfactory heat transfer properties; they resist radiation; they can tolerate an accumulation of fission products; the melting points are low enough that corrosion problems of excessively high temperatures are avoided; and the vapor pressures are low enough to permit low-pressure operation. Although, fluorine itself has some moderating properties, a better moderator must be present, either in the molten-salt mixture or as a separate structure, to obtain a thermal reactor of reasonable size. The alkali metal fluorides have been especially considered as solvents because they have low melting points. Beryllium fluoride may be added to the mixture as a moderator, and thorium tetrafluoride can be added for conversion.
Graphite and beryllium are commonly used as structured moderators. Discussion of structured-moderated reactors in this section may appear anomalous, in that most reactors in this first part of the catalog have completely homogeneous cores. The fuel itself, however, is a homogeneous solution, and such structure-moderated reactors are otherwise closely related to the more homogeneous ones.
Molten-salt reactors can be classified in several ways–by the purpose of the reactor, by the use or nonuse of a separate moderator, by the cooling method (internal or external), or by the core arrangement (one- or two-region). For this catalog, the classification will be by one- and two-region reactors. Chapter 2 will cover the first and Chapter 3
the second. According to MacPhers~nt,h~e most attractive types are the one-region, graphite-moderated reactor: and the two-region reactor. The one-region reactor is simpler, and it is cheaper to construct and operate for small power stations. Most of the one-region reactors discussed in Chapter 2 are burners. The two-region reactor has a better neutron economy, is best for breeding, and, in larger installations, gives higher con- version ratio and lower fuel-cycle costs.
The origin of the molten-salt concept is not clear. Early in the 1950's, however, molten salts were considered as reactor fuels to satisfy the need for high temperature and extremely high power densities needed for reactors intended for nuclear aircraft propulsion. Development work, particularly at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, resulted in several con- cepts, and in 1954 the Aircraft Reactor Experiment (ARE), part of the Aircraft Nuclear Propulsion Project (ANP), was operated. Since the cancellation, as of October 1957, of work on circulating-fuel reactors for aircraft work has continued aimed at developing power and breeder reactors that utilize molten salts.
Molten-salt reactors are attractive concepts for several reasons. They provide high temperatures in a low-pressure system to produce steam at temperatures high enough to give high thermal-cycle efficiencies. They are versatile because of the range of solubilities of different compounds of fissionable elements in salts. The simple ionic salts are stable under irradiation. Such reactors also have the advantages of other fluid-fueled reactors; for example, they have high nega- tive temperature coefficients of reactivity, fission products can be re- moved continuously, fuel elements need not be fabricated, and make-up fuel may be added as needed. According to Weinberg," a great advantage is that the fissionable materials can be consumed at very high thermal efficiencies and with extremely high burnup. The major problem with a salt-fueled reactor is that all the salt in the system must be kept molten at all times.
In 1959, the Fluid Fuel Reactor Task Force compared the aqueous homogeneous, molten- salt, and liquid-metal fueled reactors The prin- cipal conclusions were: the molten-salt reactor had the best chance of achieving technical feasibility; only with the homogeneous aqueous reactor was there a possibility of achieving a reasonably short doubling time;
and the total power costs for the MSR were between those for the aqueous reactor and the liquid-metal-fueled reactor.
Salt-fueled reactors are advanced concepts, and there is as yet no adequate experience for building large- scale power plants, although many concepts have been developed for such plantse7 Current development is represented by the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment, which achieved criticality at ORNL in mid 1965.

Temperatures in Washington D.C. took a nose dive this week and it is feeling distinctly more like autumn than July. That's fantastic since I hate our hot and humid summers. The weather has me pining for changing leaves, drives down windy, country back roads and trips to the farm. Baugher's Orchard and Farm is my favorite farm in Maryland. Their market is huge and sells not only seasonal produce, but homemade ice cream and fudge, a huge selection of jams and jellies, and much more. Not far away Baugher's also has a restaurant that serves delicious homecooked meals.

Unexpected Destinations: Church Cove and other Cornish Sights
A few years back my mom convinced me to become a couchsurfer. I'll share that story another time, but one of the wonderful things about couchsurfing can be that it presents you with unexpected opportunities or sights you could not have planned for because only a local would know about them.

Sophisticated Graffiti: Canal St. Martin, Paris
I heard Canal St. Martin is a neat, bohemian area of Paris. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to stroll the canal area and explore as I would have liked too (we were meeting a friend for dinner). But I did take this picture of the graffiti on this bridge. Someone was keeping it classy in Paris.
Cinematic Travels: Shangri-La
I watched Frank Capra's 1937 film, Lost Horizon, over the weekend.
Faces from a number of great movies make an appearance including Ronald Colman as the hero Robert Conway, Edward Everett Horton as a ridiculous paleontologist (He excels in ridiculousness. My favorite example is Horton's absurdity in the Gay Divorcee) and John Howard as George Conway, the brother of Robert Conway.
The film is based on a James Hilton novel of the same name.

march haul
I know my posting has been sporadic lately and it will probably continue to be that way for another week or more - long story short, I'm waiting to start some new medications and I keep getting screwed around and as I'm waiting I'm just getting sicker... Plus I have final exams this week... So nails won't be my priority! But I'll be around. Promise!
Let's see what I accumulated in March. I feel like I forgot to include some stuff though...
Probably the most exciting thing was all the Shimmer Polish!:
Shimmer Polish - Erica
Shimmer Polish - Nichole
Shimmer Polish - Karen
Shimmer Polish - Leslie
Shimmer Polish - Jennifer
Shimmer Polish - Jasmine
Shimmer Polish - Candace
Shimmer Polish - Lucie
Shimmer Polish - Maria
Shimmer Polish - Jenny
Shimmer Polish - Julie
Shimmer Polish - Trisha
Shimmer Polish - Mary
Shimmer Polish - Elsa
Shimmer Polish - Eva
Shimmer Polish - Liana
Shimmer Polish - Katherine

I really really lucked out at Winners (Each set was $9.99!):

Just three more besides:

American Apparel - Hunter (gift from my bestie Dan!)
Art Club - Passion Flower (clearance! $2)
51 if you don't count the three topcoats with the Color Clubs. That's a lot of polish! But hey, I didn't spend much. It's okay. We're okay. I'm okay. Right?
April's haul might include some fun stuff because I'm heading down to St. Louis for a few days! What goodies might be in store for me there? Hmmm...

Some girl decided it was ok to switch out mamba and endless summer with 2 polishes from the Kaleidescope pack. I just got too excited about getting flamingo and wild cactus and the price. Oh well, I'm not sad about mamba, but I was curious about endless summer.ReplyDelete

Featured Integrations: December 2015
You know that thing Ned Stark warned us about? It's here. We're in the full swing of the holiday season, and things have been rather eventful around here. Since we know you're on a time crunch, we'll get right down to it. This month, we're featuring integrations that will help you target your existing MailChimp audience, so you can make sure you're saying the right things to the right folks.
Facebook Custom Audiences
In the past, we've talked about how we use Facebook Custom Audiences internally to help us connect with our customers, but you don't have to be a marketing savant to use Facebook to get the word out. Using their step-by-step wizard, you can easily connect your MailChimp account and select the list that you'd like to target with ads on Facebook. Or, if you want to get really specific, you can even create a segment of your list in MailChimp and export that segment as a CSV to use with Facebook Custom Audiences. You could, for instance, build a segment targeting folks who have purchased a specific product, and then use Facebook Custom Audiences to promote other products or services that might also be of interest to those particular customers.
Connect with Facebook Custom Audiences
MailChimp for Shopify
Speaking of purchasing, whether you're already a Shopify user or you're scrambling to launch your store just in time for the holiday rush, MailChimp for Shopify can help keep your e-commerce customers and email marketing in sync. When a new customer makes a purchase from your Shopify store, they'll automatically be synced to your MailChimp list so you can follow-up with them using our automation features. We'll also sync over e-commerce data so you can segment your list by purchase history—or lack thereof. Want to find folks who bought a new grill from your store but haven't signed up for classes to learn how to use the thing? We've got you covered, and you've got an easy stocking stuffer option to suggest to your customers.
Connect with MailChimp for Shopify
MailChimp Snap
If you're a small business, this time of year doesn't offer a lot of bandwidth in terms of free time. With Snap, you can send quick email updates to your subscribers. Simply connect your Instagram account or take a picture of the new item you want to showcase, pick one of our existing templates, and add your content all from your phone. Snap is available for both iOS and Android.
MailChimp Sync for Eventbrite
The holiday season is also the special events and gatherings season. If you're planning a company party, a sponsored event, or even just a small get-together at your house, Eventbrite can help you manage invitations and track who's coming. With Evenbrite Sync, you can build the event in Eventbrite and then create a custom MailChimp campaign to send to your invitees. Your link to RSVP will show up in your newly created campaign's "Comments" section, allowing you to add it to a call-to-action button or track who all is clicking (or not clicking) to RSVP. Selling tickets to your event? No worries—the ticket purchase data will be synced over as e-commerce fields in MailChimp as well!

text: jon3de 51 Report post Posted November 14, 2017 hi, I try to do a simple cloth animation on my character but I cant quite get rid of these bounces that my cloth object does after some time. As you can see in the first part of the animation everything goes well and in the second part of the animation the cloth freaks out somehow although the movement of the character doesn´t change so much. Does anyone with some cloth experience have some tips for me? Sub Steps in the Solver are at 16 and I cached out my collision geo with substeps. Thank you.

BISMARCK, N.D. (Legal Newsline) - North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem issued a cease and desist order Friday against a business opportunity seller and its owner for allegedly engaging in fraud and do-not-call law violations.
Northstar Advertising Solutions LLC, doing business as Network Media Solutions, and William Religo, the company's owner, sell online business opportunities such as online advertising and website design.
A consumer filed a complaint with Stenehjem's Consumer Protection Division alleging that the business promised her $6,000 of income per quarter if she paid $9,000 in start-up costs. The consumer alleges that she received no income, no customer support or service, and no answers to her questions since making the payment.
Stenehjem also alleges that the business made calls to a telephone subscriber on the do-not-call list, a violation of the do-not-call list. Additionally, Northstar Advertising Solutions failed to respond to a civil investigative demand issued by Stenehjem's office to find out more about the practices of the business.
"I am concerned about allegations indicating this business may be engaged in what is commonly referred to as a 'biz-op' scam and that it failed to respond to the civil investigative demand and cooperate with the investigation," Stenehjem said.

Previous Fellowships
In the past few years BFIRST fellows have successfully applied to the scheme from many countries around the world including Nigeria, Mozambique, Zambia, Kenya, Georgia, Pakistan, Cambodia and Vietnam.
Please read the following testimonials from recent BFISRT fellows to find out where they went in the UK, what they learnt and what they though of the fellowship:
- Pedro Santos – Plastic Surgeon from Mozambique. 2016 BFIRST Fellowship spent in Glasgow and Dublin
- Mohamed Mehrose – Plastic Surgeon from Pakistan. 2015 BFIRST Fellowship spent in Chelmsford
Pedro Santos – Plastic Surgeon from Mozambique. 2016 BFIRST Fellowship spent in Glasgow and Dublin
My name is Pedro Santos, I'm a junior plastic surgeon from Mozambique (on the east coast of southern Africa) and a BFIRST Fellow. I was made aware of the BFIRST Fellowship by Mr John Stevenson, who was one of the examiners of the exam for the College of Surgeons of East, Central and Southern Africa- COSECSA.
From the second week of October until the end of November 2016, I spent nearly three weeks in Glasgow, at the Canniesburn Unit, hosted by Mr Stuart Watson and colleagues and another similar period in Dublin, at the St James's Hospital Plastic Surgery Unit, hosted by Ms Patricia Eadie and colleagues. They were all very welcoming, and the interaction with them was really important. Coming from a resource strapped environment, seeing what can be done to improve the health of patients when resources are available is quite impressive and a reminder of what we should aim for, even if it doesn't come in my lifetime. One should aim to keep on improving constantly. Seeing scientific work being applied is wonderful and many of the things I saw I had only read about them in books and articles and seeing them being done allowed me to better understand them. I also saw a few procedures I had not seen before and different ways of doing some of the procedures I do at home. I'm referring specifically about hand and lower limb surgery, burn surgery, breast surgery which is what I saw mainly. I also had the opportunity to accompany the ward rounds, outpatient clinics and physiotherapy clinic which is integral to plastic surgery
The end of the fellowship coincided with the BAPRAS Winter Meeting and it was another opportunity that I took and it was a very nice meeting, the quality of the work presented was very high.
Besides the visit to the plastic surgery units I also took the opportunity to take some tours around the cities I visited, getting to know some of the culture, sights and sounds and meeting some of the local people, which is always enriching.
Some advice for future fellows: Once accepted the candidate has to apply for a visa for which one needs all the required documents – a process that can be lengthy. The candidate is also responsible for acquiring the ticket(s) for the trip, and some candidates may find this difficult. Some of the requirements are the accommodation bookings (which may not be easy to do if one does not have a credit card or if one is not aware of the area), proof of having enough funds for support during the visit, amongst others. It is thus fundamental to have all the documents ready, and make sure that the passport is valid for more than 6months from the date of planned return if the candidate is to travel elsewhere before returning home.
Taking part in the BIFIRST Fellowship was a great experience in all aspects and it enabled me to acquire skills that will certainly be used.
I'd like to thank BFIRST for accepting me for this fellowship, Mr John Stevenson for introducing me to it, Ms Patricia Eadie and Mr Stuart Watson for hosting me.
Mohamed Mehrose – Plastic Surgeon from Pakistan. 2015 BFIRST Fellowship spent in Chelmsford
I feel lot privileged to express my feelings about my BFIRST fellowship stay at the Chelmsford. Firstly, I would like to thank BAPRAS to provide me such opportunity where doctors from under developed countries can visit the UK and observe their working system closely and learn from their experience.
I would also like to express special thanks to Prof. Peter Dziewulski for every thing he has done for me from accepting my placement to provide supporting letters to home office so that I can get my visa stamped and then guiding me throughout during my stay at the Chelmsford.
I was very much impressed by the hospitality I received from all the members of staff at St. Andrews Centre. This trip was very fruitful for me from number of aspects. During this fellowship, I have compared burns management between the UK and Pakistan and it gave me ideas how we can improve our burn management system.
I was especially sent from my unit as I have been assigned the responsibility to lead the burn care. Beside excellent care provided at in and out patient setting to the burn patients, the areas I feel need further improvement at our setup is to enhance the MDT and team approach, infection control, intensive care, stress on social and occupational rehabilitation and after burn care.
By utilizing this opportunity, I feel more confident and at a much better position to treat burn patient at our center. I feel this initiative is an excellent effort made by BAPRAS to help the Plastic Surgeons of under developed countries to improve their patient care. I would strongly suggest continuing this iniative so that it would be beneficial for the doctors and patients globally.
Once again thank you very much for everything you have done.
