I can't wait to finish mine! How did you trace the stitching pattern to your block to embroider?

I have enjoyed each and every week of the Quilty Fun Week(s). I can't wait to finish this Quilt and am sooooo happy that a next one is 'just around the corner'! Yay!!

Melanie, I use a sheet of Transfer-Eze. It goes in your printer. Print the pattern onto the sheet, then stick it to your fabric. Embroider, then the sheet dissolves in cold water when you are done.

I am working on my border and cut the 200 1 1/2 in squares but I am only using 104. Am I missing something? I have lots of little squares leftover.

My quilt is finished. I wish I knew how to post a picture. Lori's instructions are fabulous. I love that it shows which way to press the seams. I also like that Lori tells us how long to cut the border pieces. Many people tell us "about" how long so we can measure through the center of the quilt. I am glad that Lori has the confidence in us to know that we will have accurate seam allowances and end up at the right dimension. I was so excited to get the last assembly instructions, but as it went together so quickly I was sad that it was over. I am super happy to see that there will be another quilt along with the granny squared. I had a few things that I am not sure about with the final instructions for cutting the background for Quilty fun. I only needed 5 more 1 1/2 x 13 1/2 strips. I had cut three during the block making phase. I only needed 104 1 1/2 inch squares for the postage stamp border and I needed 4 more 2 inch strips for the borders for a total of 10.

I loved that I didn't have to buy any fabric for this quilt. I may have to buy something for the backing, maybe not...

Bruno Haible has provided me with gettext-0.15pre1.tar.gz, with a *much* improved public API that allows programs (such as gtranslator, kbabel etc) use it's po file parsing, hook in a custom error handler to the parser, update translations in the parsed messagelist, and write translations back to a po f ile. Basically, I can now start ripping out the custom parsing/writing code from gtranslator and use this instead, which is a far cleaner solution. Then, as this will provide easier access to the plural form translations, I can provide a nicer UI when editing them. I have most of this done already in a proof-of-concept branch, but it just needs to be reworked a bit to use Bruno's new gettext API. I'm excited.
GNOME sysadmin
Lots of fun with the content_filter (amavisd/spamd/clamd) on menubar.gnome.org. Jeff disabled it as he thought it was causing multi-hour mail delays (not good near the end of a release cycle), but it turns out it was DNS failures. I tried using SpamCop's RBL for a bit, but it turned out it would have caused a few too many false positives, so we'll just rely on RCVD_IN_SPAMCOP_RBL for now.
I briefly looked into the CVSROOT loginfo file. I was annoyed that it only runs the first match in that file. It means my 'cvs-commmits-po-list' hack was not being reached if the commit was being handled by one of the other (more important) scripts further up. I figured we needed a hacked martin-log.pl that would 'Cc' that po commits list if a '.po' file was one of the files affected. However, I don't think my Perl skills were quite sharp enough, as it seemed to put an invisible spanner in the works, resulting in a handful of (test) commits not generating the mail notification, so I reverted it. I'll have to find a better way to test it at some point.
Toni seems to be showing some enthusiasm towards getting RT (Request Tracker) packaged up for window, which will be good. He's also looking at getting NAGIOS up, so we can react to and track service outages a bit better. I'm also thinking of making a more concrete proposal for setting up MRTG monitoring of load and system/network I/O on the various boxes, which I think would be useful/interesting.
Whacky ideas dept.
Now my lappy keyboard is giving up the ghost, and I'm starting to wish I could get information into my iPAQ quicker than tapping it's touchscreen, I came up with an idea. Quite a few years ago now (when TV presenters had big hair and bushy sideburns, and wore brown jackets with big ties), I saw a show called Tomorrows World, which demonstrated how a someone with only a few days experience using this one-handed keyboard was able to type faster than the fastest touch typist in the world on a normal keyboard. I was impressed, but I never heard anything more about it after that.
Well, I found them. They are Infogrip, and they make the BAT. Your hand rests with four fingers on four black buttons, and your thumb free to move between three coloured buttons. By pressing the keys in a certain combination (chord), you can simulate just about any keypress from a standard keyboard. Apparently, you can learn all the chord combinations in a few hours, and can be up to a reasonable typing pace in just a few days. Hopefully, I'll be in a position to order one in a few weeks time.
I like it, but I thought maybe I could do one better. I thought about a small, kind of cylindrical device, moulded a bit like a joystick handle, with the four main buttons along the front, and the three thumb buttons on top. It would contain an AA battery, and would simply send signals (via Bluetooth) when a key is pressed or depressed. This just means that you would need to buy a USB Bluetooth dongle, and write a keyboard driver to convert the received signals into keycodes. Theres probably a little more to it than that, but not much.
You could go even further and give the transmitter the concept of channels. So that, with a certain chord, you could switch between sending your input to different devices (your desktop, your laptop, your PDA, your mobile phone, your TV, your cashpoint, your other electronic device).
I guess there would be a few security issues involved here too, but they could easily be addressed during my next daydream. For now, back to writing PHP code to keep the bills at bay (yawn!). Maybe someone from Infogrip wants to pick up where I left off :)

Leach says he's happy in Pullman, will coach WSU next season
Pullman, WA - Washington State's Mike Leach says he intends to be coaching the Cougars again next season.
Leach's name has come up in connection with some coaching vacancies across the country, particularly at North Carolina State.
But Leach said Wednesday that he's happy in Pullman and not looking for another job. He says he wants to turn the Washington State program around.
The Cougars finished 3-9 in Leach's first season, but they beat archrival Washington in the Apple Cup. It was the first losing record of Leach's career.
He says the team needs to get bigger and stronger next season, and will be particularly looking to recruit more offensive and defensive linemen. He also says senior linebacker Travis Long's knee injury won't be healed for pre-NFL Draft workouts, but expects him to get a chance from a team.

EMA CHMP gives marketing authorization for Teva Pharmaceutical's neutropenia drug Lonquex (XM22 lipegfilgrastim) in EU
Singapore: European Medical Association's (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) has recommended that a marketing authorization may be issued in the European Union for Teva Pharmaceutical's Lonquex (XM22 lipegfilgrastim).
The drug is indicated for reduction in the duration of neutropenia and the incidence of febrile neutropenia in adult patients treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy for malignancy (with the exception of chronic myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes). CHMP opinion paves the way to a final approval decision from the European Commission expected within the next few months.
Lonquex (lipegfilgrastim) is a long-acting recombinant granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) based on novel GlycoPEGylation technology. Lipegfilgrastim is a novel, pegylated and glycosylated long-acting form of filgrastim, intended for once-per-cycle fixed dose, subcutaneous injection for neutrophil support in patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy (with the exception of chronic myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes).
Dr Michael Hayden, Teva's president of global R&D and CSO, commented, "Effective prophylaxis against neutropenia and febrile neutropenia is a high priority for patients undergoing cytotoxic chemotherapy. This chemotherapy attacks rapidly dividing bone marrow cells and dramatically reduces the ability to fight off infection, which can have serious consequences for patients. Loquenex reduces the neutropenia that can lead to these consequences. We look forward to receiving final approval and being able to offer this medication to patients."
"The CHMP positive opinion is an important milestone in Teva's efforts to provide new treatment options for patients in oncology, which is a key area of focus for Teva," stated Dr Rob Koremans, president and CEO, Teva Global Specialty Medicines. "We will now await the final decision from the European Commission. Teva is highly committed in delivering innovative treatments to market and its stakeholders that meet patients' needs."

Best of the Best 2013: Business Aircraft: Super Midsize: Bombardier Challenger 300
<< Back to Robb Report, June 2013
June 1, 2013
Netjets certainly likes the Bombardier Challenger 300 (514.861.9481, www.businessaircraft.bombardier.com), an aircraft with coast-to-coast range (3,500 miles) and a price of $24.3 million. Last summer the fractional-industry leader ordered 75 of the jets, and it has options for 125 more. This is one of the largest orders ever for Bombardier. The Challenger 300, which went into service at the end of 2003, cruises at 541 mph and can operate from airports with runways as short as 5,000 feet. The cabin has a flat floor and is just over 6 feet tall and 7 feet wide. It is spacious enough for 10 passengers but is usually configured for eight. The aircraft's 106 cubic feet of baggage space is accessible from the cabin.

19,652pages onAdd New Page
this wiki
this wiki
Navigation is the menu found on top of all pages that provides links to the most important and interesting pages on your wiki.
Video overviewEdit
This video overviews the details your wiki's navigation and how to get started with editing it.
- Navigation is found at the top of every page of your community. It contains two areas: the pre-populated "On the wiki" menu and the other customizable menu item.
- The "On the wiki" tab is default open, and provides important links on your wiki, including Wiki activity, Random Page, Videos, Photos, and other features that may be enabled on the wiki (such as Chat). This tab is maintained by Fandom Staff, please refrain from moving the tab or removing any of the pre-populated items on it.
- The local navigation menu (all other menu items besides the "On the wiki" tab) can be edited by admins for your community.
- To edit this menu, click on the contribute button, then choose the "Edit Wiki Navigation" link from the dropdown from any page. Or you can use the link found on the Admin Dashboard.
- The editor will load the page MediaWiki:Wiki-navigation
- After you make your changes, you will need to Preview the new menu before you can Publish them. The Preview button is located beneath the Edit Summary box. The preview runs a validation tool which ensures the new menu will not cause issues with the display of the wiki.
How many links can it contain?Edit
The Navigation menu offers a maximum of 280 links, although it is not necessary to use all of them. The links are grouped as:
- 4 Level 1 links which combine for a total width of 550px. These are the links that are always visible above the colored menu bar.
- 7 Level 2 links with a maximum total width of 729px. These are the links that appear on the colored bar when hovering over any of the level 1 links.
- 10 Level 3 links with a dynamic width and a minimum width of 150px. These appear as dropdown style menus under each of the level 2 links.
To add a link, you need to use wikitext to define the links and text that appear on the menu. The wiki text for the level pattern is as follows:
One way to make sure the navigation has dynamic content that highlights the strengths of your community is to use magic words to automatically fill in menu items.
- To do this, use # symbols around the magic words you choose to use.
- Since magic words generate lists of pages, they may only be used as Level 2 menu items; the list they generate will appear as the Level 3 menu items.
- Supported Magic Words
- #categoryX# - Where X is a number greater than 0. This gets the top 8 pages from the Xth-biggest category on a wiki.
- #category-Y# - Gets the top 8 pages from Category:Y (replace "Y" with the name of your category).
- #newlychanged# - Gets the most recent changes from your wiki.
Saving your changesEdit
- Once you have added in the wiki text for your menu items, you will need to hit the Preview button, which is located underneath the edit summary box.
- You must Preview changes to your navigation before they are saved. The Publish button will only appear on the bottom right of the preview window.
- The Preview button will show your new navigation, and check for errors in the wiki text. For example, it will report an error if you try to use a Magic Word in a Level 1 or Level 3 menu item. It will also run a width validator tool which will inform you if your menu items are too wide to display at the minimum width of the site. The warning will display like this:
- If there are any problems, you will need to return back to the editor to adjust your navigation.
- When your preview contains no errors, the Publish button will appear in the preview window. Click Publish and your new navigation will be live.
Things to noteEdit
- You can link to any page, and it is important to think about what are the most important places for visitors to see when they come to your community.
- We recommend adding links to popular pages, and links to show where to find the community.
- Sometimes, it isn't appropriate to link to an article (if you want to have a heading on the navigation, for example) so you can put the code
*#|Headingto create a heading on the navigation which doesn't link anywhere.
- Remember that you can only save (Publish) changes to the menu from the Preview screen.

Late Renaissance
The artists of the late Renaissance adopted a variety of strategies and styles. They were influenced by, and reacted to, the naturalism and harmonious ideals of three masters: Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. As Raphael's glorious Saint Sebastian demonstrates, by this time many painters had embraced the medium of oil, using strong hues and layers of transparent paint to build forms.
Many artists used dramatic lighting, theatrical, often irrational perspective. The stance of figures becomes twisted and exaggerated, their necks, fingers and other physical features elongated. Compositional groups occupy such a large area of the canvas they almost burst out of the frames. Portraits emphasise an emotional intensity and give a strong sense of the individual.

LSU !!!!!!!! Go Tiger's
Death Valley is still there. If you don't think that's a big deal, imagine sitting in front of a refrigerator-sized speaker at a Metallica concert. And in back of you is a Pratt & Whitney jet engine, fully revved.
That's Death Valley during a night game.
This isn't just the game we've been waiting for; it's the game for which we've been doing a mission control-like countdown for months. It might not be the Game of the Century, like last year's matchup, but it's the game of the season.
If LSU wins, all BCS hell breaks loose...
Dangit Franco I thought the last time you got put in jail for hunting squirrells at the city park you would have learned your lesson.:-P

Another in the series of panoramas based around the historic core of Hexham and its wonderful Abbey. This shows the Market Place with the Abbey at its west end and the old Moot Hall at the east end. Beaumont Street (seen in previous Gigapans) comes in from the south and exits as Market Street to the north. Just left of centre is Hallstile Bank, a road leading north east originally becoming Alemouth Road an old toll road leading all the way to the east coast of Northumberland.

The Charleston art community was abuzz about Honey Moon, this year's bee-themed Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art membership party. Honey Moon is the 8th edition of the Moon Parties, and this year artist Becca Barnet created a site-specific installation piece, Apiary.
The sculptural hive piece (made entirely of found and recycled materials), hovered over partygoers as they mingled and sipped on honey-inspired cocktails. Over 500 preserved honeybees dangled from the work of art, captivating guests as they made their way through the main hall toward the food table.
Cheeses, pickles, and hors d'oeuvres went quickly amongst the sizable crowd, which swarmed to the stage to enjoy the rockin' sounds of band The Local Honeys. Though this year's theme seemed to only move a few guests to dress in bee-inspired clothing, several partygoers put their best foot forward in a stylish beehive... including Charlestonian Buff Ross, who sported a towering beehive laden with fake honeybees. "I was putting the bees in on the way over here," he confessed.
Guests milled about, enjoying the party and each other's company before hitting the moon photo booth and heading out to the bustle of Calhoun Street.
Honey Moon was a fundraiser for the Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art. The annual membership parties offer everyone an opportunity to support the Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art (HICA) through renewing, upgrading, or joining the HICA membership program. The Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art works to provide and encourage innovative contemporary art in the Lowcountry.

Director Steven Soderbergh is taking a step back from filmmaking to concentrate on his love of art.
In 2011 the Oscar winner announced plans to retire from the movie world when he turned 50, and after celebrating the milestone on January 14, Soderbergh says he's sticking to his promise to himself.
"It's a combination of wanting a change personally and of feeling like I've hit a wall in my development that I don't know how to break through ...," he told New York Magazine.
"And I also know you can't force it. I love and respect filmmaking too much to continue to do it while feeling I'm running in place."
But Soderbergh reveals he will have plenty to keep him busy after opening up his own art studio in New York City.
"It wasn't until I was older that I started looking at visual art closely," he says. "What's exciting is to feel at the very beginning of something. It's also terrifying starting from scratch, but panic has always energised me. It's the same process as anything: identifying who your heroes are, figuring out what they did, and then just going and doing it ...
"It's very basic right now: 'Can I make things look the way I want them to look...?' I go back and forth between portraits and abstracts. I'm not really interested in landscapes or still life. I'm more attracted to faces."
And he jokes he's even found inspiration in some of his former leading men and women: "I was sitting in an airport reading Us Weekly one day, and I realised all the hours of my life I'd spent reading tabloid magazines. I thought: 'I can't have wasted all that time!' So I spent six months building this six-foot-by-nine-foot collage of people on the red carpet. It was really fun."

11.2: Types of Chemical Reactions
Lesson Objectives
- Define and give general equations for combination, decomposition, single-replacement, and double-replacement reactions.
- Classify a reaction as combination, decomposition, single-replacement, double-replacement, or combustion.
- Use the activity series to correctly predict whether a given reaction will occur.
- Predict the products of simple reactions, given only the reactants.
- activity series
- combination reaction
- combustion reaction
- decomposition reaction
- double-replacement reaction
- single-replacement reaction
Check Your Understanding
Recalling Prior Knowledge
- What is the difference between an element and a compound?
- What is the crisscross method, and how does it help one to write correct formulas for ionic compounds?
- What are the steps to balancing a chemical equation?
Many chemical reactions can be classified as one of five basic types. Having a thorough understanding of these types of reactions will be useful for predicting the products of an unknown reaction. The five basic types of chemical reactions are combination, decomposition, single-replacement, double-replacement, and combustion. Analyzing the reactants and products of a given reaction will allow you to place it into one of these categories. Some reactions will fit into more than one category.
Combination Reactions
A combination reaction is a reaction in which two or more substances combine to form a single new substance. Combination reactions can also be called synthesis reactions. The general form of a combination reaction is:
One combination reaction is two elements combining to form a compound. Solid sodium metal reacts with chlorine gas to produce solid sodium chloride.
- 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s)
Notice that in order to write and balance the equation correctly, it is important to remember the seven elements that exist in nature as diatomic molecules (H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2).
One sort of combination reaction that occurs frequently is the reaction of an element with oxygen to form an oxide. Metals and nonmetals both react readily with oxygen under most conditions. Magnesium reacts rapidly and dramatically when ignited, combining with oxygen from the air to produce a fine powder of magnesium oxide (Figure below).
- 2Mg(s) + O2(g) → 2MgO(s)
Magnesium burns very brightly, combining with oxygen from the air to give a product of gray, powdery magnesium oxide.
Sulfur reacts with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide.
- S(s) + O2(g) → SO2(g)
When nonmetals react with one another, the product is a molecular compound. Often, the nonmetal reactants can combine in different ratios and produce different products. Sulfur can also combine with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide.
- 2S(s) + 3O2(g) → 2SO3(g)
Transition metals are capable of adopting multiple positive charges within their ionic compounds. Therefore, most transition metals are capable of forming different products in a combination reaction. Iron reacts with oxygen to form both iron(II) oxide and iron(III) oxide.
- 2Fe(s) + O2(g) → 2FeO(s)
- 4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) → 2Fe2O3(s)
Sample Problem 11.2: Combination Reactions
Potassium is a very reactive alkali metal that must be stored under oil in order to prevent it from reacting with air. Write the balanced chemical equation for the combination reaction of potassium with oxygen.
Step 1: Plan the problem
Make sure formulas of all reactants and products are correct before balancing the equation. Oxygen gas is a diatomic molecule. Potassium oxide is an ionic compound and so its formula is constructed by the crisscross method. Potassium as an ion becomes K+, while the oxide ion is O2−.
Step 2: Solve
The skeleton (unbalanced) equation: K(s) + O2(g) → K2O(s)
The equation is then easily balanced with coefficients.
- 4K(s) + O2(g) → 2K2O(s)
Step 3: Think about your result
The formulas are correct and the resulting combination reaction is balanced.
- Write a balanced equation for the combination reactions.
- aluminum and oxygen
- calcium and bromine
- Write a balanced equation showing the formation of copper(II) nitride from its elements.
Combination reactions can also take place when an element reacts with a compound to form a new compound composed of a larger number of atoms. Carbon monoxide reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide according to the equation:
- 2CO(g) + O2(g) → 2CO2(g)
Two compounds may also react to from a more complex compound. A very common example is the reactions of oxides with water. Calcium oxide reacts readily with water to produce an aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide.
- CaO(s) + H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(aq)
Sulfur trioxide gas reacts with water to form sulfuric acid. This is an unfortunately common reaction that occurs in the atmosphere in some places where oxides of sulfur are present as pollutants. The acid formed in the reaction falls to the ground as acid rain (Figure below).
- SO3(g) + H2O(l) → H2SO4(aq)
Acid rain has severe consequences on both nature as well as on man-made objects. (A) Acid rain degrades marble statues like the one on the left. (B) The trees in the forest on the right have been killed by acid rain.

Decomposition Reactions
A decomposition reaction is a reaction in which a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. The general form of a decomposition reaction is:
Most decomposition reactions require an input of energy in the form of heat, light, or electricity.
Binary compounds are compounds composed of just two elements. The simplest kind of decomposition reaction is when a binary compound decomposes into its elements. Mercury(II) oxide, a red solid, decomposes when heated to produce mercury and oxygen gas.
- 2HgO(s) → 2Hg(l) + O2(g)
View a video of the decomposition of mercury(II) oxide at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Y1alDuXm6A (1:12).
A reaction is also considered to be a decomposition reaction even when one or more of the products is still a compound. A metal carbonate decomposes into a metal oxide and carbon dioxide gas. For example, calcium carbonate decomposes into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.
- CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)
Metal hydroxides decompose on heating to yield metal oxides and water. Sodium hydroxide decomposes to produce sodium oxide and water.
- 2NaOH(s) → Na2O(s) + H2O(g)
Some unstable acids decompose to produce nonmetal oxides and water. Carbonic acid decomposes easily at room temperature into carbon dioxide and water.
- H2CO3(aq) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)
Sample Problem 11.3: Decomposition Reactions
When an electric current is passed through pure water, it decomposes into its elements. Write a balanced equation for the decomposition of water.
Step 1: Plan the problem
Water is a binary compound composed of hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen and oxygen gases produced in the reaction are both diatomic molecules.
Step 2: Solve
Note the abbreviation "elec" above the arrow to indicate the passage of an electric current to initiate the reaction. Balance the equation.
- \begin{align*}2\text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \overset{elec}{\rightarrow} 2\text{H}_2(g) + \text{O}_2(g)\end{align*}
Step 3: Think about your result
The products are elements and the equation is balanced.
- Write balanced equations for the decomposition of the following compounds.
- strontium phosphide
- silver carbonate
- aluminum hydroxide
For more information on decomposition reactions, go to http://www.chemteam.info/Equations/Decomposition.html.
Single-Replacement Reactions
A single-replacement reaction is a reaction in which one element replaces a similar element in a compound. The general form of a single-replacement (also called single-displacement) reaction is:
In this general reaction, element A is a metal and replaces element B, also a metal, in the compound. When the element that is doing the replacing is a nonmetal, it must replace another nonmetal in a compound, and the general equation becomes:
Y is a nonmetal and replaces the nonmetal Z in the compound with X.
Metal Replacement
Magnesium is a more reactive metal than copper. When a strip of magnesium metal is placed in an aqueous solution of copper(II) nitrate, it replaces the copper. The products of the reaction are aqueous magnesium nitrate and solid copper metal.
- Mg(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq) → Mg(NO3)2(aq) + Cu(s)
This subcategory of single-replacement reactions is called a metal replacement reaction because it is a metal that is being replaced (copper).
You can view a two part video experiment of a metal replacement occurring over a period of time.
- Part 1 video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqGrpd5smtI
- The document that goes with part 1 is at http://www.dlt.ncssm.edu/core/Chapter1-Introduction/Chapter1-Labs/Iron_Nail_Observation_Activity.doc.
- Part 2 video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWcSzvJ6Kcw
Hydrogen Replacement
Many metals react easily with acids and when they do so, one of the products of the reaction is hydrogen gas. Zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce aqueous zinc chloride and hydrogen (Figure below).
- Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)
In a hydrogen replacement reaction, the hydrogen in the acid is replaced by an active metal.
Zinc metal reacts with hydrochloric acid to give off hydrogen gas in a single-replacement reaction.
Some metals are so reactive that they are capable of replacing the hydrogen in water. The products of such a reaction are the metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas. All group 1 metals undergo this type of reaction. Sodium reacts vigorously with water to produce aqueous sodium hydroxide and hydrogen (Figure below).
- 2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
Pictured here is about 30 g of sodium metal reacting with water. Sodium metal reacts vigorously when dropped into a container of water, giving off hydrogen gas. A large piece of sodium will often generate so much heat that the hydrogen will ignite.
View an animation of a metal replacing hydrogen at http://www.dlt.ncssm.edu/core/Chapter5-Moles-Molarity-Reaction_Types/Chapter5-Animations/SingleDisp_Reaction-MetalToAcid.html.
Halogen Replacement
The element chlorine reacts with an aqueous solution of sodium bromide to produce aqueous sodium chloride and elemental bromine.
- Cl2(g) + 2NaBr(aq) → 2NaCl(aq) + Br2(l)
The reactivity of the halogen group (group 17) decreases from top to bottom within the group. Fluorine is the most reactive halogen, while iodine is the least. Since chlorine is above bromine, it is more reactive than bromine and can replace it in a halogen replacement reaction.
You can view a halogen replacement experiment at http://www.dlt.ncssm.edu/core/Chapter5-Moles-Molarity-Reaction_Types/l2hexane-lg.htm.
The Activity Series
Single-replacement reactions only occur when the element that is doing the replacing is more reactive than the element that is being replaced. Therefore, it is useful to have a list of elements in order of their relative reactivities. The activity series is a list of elements in decreasing order of their reactivity. Since metals replace other metals, while nonmetals replace other nonmetals, they each have a separate activity series. Table below is an activity series of most common metals and of the halogens.
|Activity of Metals
|Activity of Halogens
|React with cold water, replacing hydrogen.
|React with steam, but not cold water, replacing hydrogen.
|Do not react with water. React with acids, replacing hydrogen.
|Unreactive with water or acids.
For a single-replacement reaction, a given element is capable of replacing an element that is below it in the activity series. This can be used to predict if a reaction will occur. Suppose that small pieces of the metal nickel were placed into two separate aqueous solutions: one of iron(III) nitrate and one of lead(II) nitrate. Looking at the activity series, we see that nickel is below iron, but above lead. Therefore, the nickel metal will be capable of replacing the lead in a reaction, but will not be capable of replacing iron.
- Ni(s) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) → Ni(NO3)2(aq) + Pb(s)
- Ni(s) + Fe(NO3)3(aq) → NR (no reaction)
In the descriptions that accompany the activity series of metals, a given metal is also capable of undergoing the reactions described below that section. For example, lithium will react with cold water, replacing hydrogen. It will also react with steam and with acids, since that requires a lower degree of reactivity.
Sample Problem 11.4: Single-Replacement Reactions
Use the activity series to predict if the following reactions will occur. If not, write NR. If the reaction does occur, write the products of the reaction and balance the equation.
- Al(s) + Zn(NO3)2(aq) →
- Ag(s) + HCl(aq) →
Step 1: Plan the problem
For 1, compare the placements of aluminum and zinc on the activity series. For 2, compare the placements of silver and hydrogen.
Since aluminum is above zinc, it is capable of replacing it and a reaction will occur. The products of the reaction will be aqueous aluminum nitrate and solid zinc. Take care to write the correct formulas for the products before balancing the equation. Aluminum adopts a 3+ charge in an ionic compound, so the formula for aluminum nitrate is Al(NO3)3. The balanced equation is:
- 2Al(s) + 3Zn(NO3)2(aq) → 2Al(NO3)3(aq) + 3Zn(s)
Since silver is below hydrogen, it is not capable of replacing hydrogen in a reaction with an acid.
- Ag(s) + HCl(aq) → NR
Step 3: Think about your result
The equation for 1 is balanced and follows the activity series. Silver, a coinage and jewelry metal, is unreactive towards acids.
- Complete and balance the reactions for the following single-replacement reactions. Use the activity series. If no reaction will occur, write NR.
- Fe(s) + MgCl2(aq) →
- F2(g) + KI(aq) →
- Sn(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq) →
Watch a video experiment of halogen activity series at http://www.dlt.ncssm.edu/core/Chapter8-Atomic_Str_Part2/bleachoverlay-lg.htm.

Double-Replacement Reactions
A double-replacement reaction is a reaction in which the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds exchange places to form two new compounds. The general form of a double-replacement (also called double-displacement) reaction is:
In this reaction, A and C are positively-charged cations, while B and D are negatively-charged anions. Double-replacement reactions generally occur between substances in aqueous solution. In order for a reaction to occur, one of the products is usually a solid precipitate, a gas, or a molecular compound such as water.
For more information and examples on double-replacement reactions go to http://www.chemteam.info/Equations/DoubleReplacement.html.
Formation of a Precipitate
A precipitate forms in a double-replacement reaction when the cations from one of the reactants combine with the anions from the other reactant to form an insoluble ionic compound. When aqueous solutions of potassium iodide and lead(II) nitrate are mixed, the following reaction occurs.
- 2KI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) → 2KNO3(aq) + PbI2(s)
There are very strong attractive forces that occur between Pb2+ and I− ions and the result is a brilliant yellow precipitate (Figure below). The other product of the reaction, potassium nitrate, remains soluble. Rules for predicting the water solubility of ionic compounds and how to apply those rules to reactions are covered in a later chapter.
When a few drops of lead(II) nitrate are added to a solution of potassium iodide, a yellow precipitate of lead(II) iodide immediately forms in a double-replacement reaction.
Watch a video of the reaction between lead(II) nitrate and potassium iodide on the microscopic level at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncRj5qIoRRg (0:43).
You can watch the above reaction without a microscope at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2mB-q2NQXY (0:38).
You can view an animation of a double-replacement precipitation reaction at http://www.dlt.ncssm.edu/core/Chapter5-Moles-Molarity-Reaction_Types/Chapter5-Animations/DoubleDisp_Reaction-Precipitation.html.
Formation of a Gas
Some double-replacement reactions produce a gaseous product which then bubbles out of the solution and escapes into the air. When solutions of sodium sulfide and hydrochloric acid are mixed, the products of the reaction are aqueous sodium chloride and hydrogen sulfide gas.
- Na2S(aq) + 2HCl(aq) → 2NaCl(aq) + H2S(g)
Watch a video experiment that shows the production of hydrogen sulfide gas from sodium sulfide and hydrochloric acid at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=os8Yr-rindU.
Formation of a Molecular Compound
Another kind of double-replacement reaction is one that produces a molecular compound as one of its products. Many examples in this category are reactions that produce water. When aqueous hydrochloric acid is reacted with aqueous sodium hydroxide, the products are aqueous sodium chloride and water.
- HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)
Sample Problem 11.5: Double-Replacement Reactions
Write a complete and balanced chemical equation for the following double-replacement reactions. One product is indicated as a guide.
- NaCN(aq) + HBr(aq) → (hydrogen cyanide gas is formed)
- (NH4)2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) → (a precipitate of barium sulfate forms)
Step 1: Plan the problem
In 1, the production of a gas drives the reaction. In 2, the production of a precipitate drives the reaction. In both cases, use the ionic charges of both reactants to construct the correct formulas of the products.
Step 2: Solve
- The cations of both reactants are 1+ charged ions, while the anions are 1− charged ions. After exchanging partners, the balanced equation is: NaCN(aq) + HBr(aq) → NaBr(aq) + HCN(g)
- Ammonium ion and nitrate ion are 1+ and 1− respectively, while barium and sulfate are 2+ and 2−. This must be taken into account when exchanging partners and writing the new formulas. Then, the equation is balanced. (NH4)2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) → 2NH4NO3(aq) + BaSO4(s)
Step 3: Think about your result
Both are double-replacement reactions. All formulas are correct and the equations are balanced.
- Complete and balance the double-replacement reactions.
- H3PO4(aq) + KOH(aq) → (water is formed)
- AgNO3(aq) + CaCl2(aq) → (silver chloride precipitate forms)
Occasionally, a reaction will produce both a gas and a molecular compound. The reaction of a sodium carbonate solution with hydrochloric acid produces aqueous sodium chloride, carbon dioxide gas, and water.
- Na2CO3(aq) + 2HCl(aq) → 2NaCl(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
Combustion Reactions
A combustion reaction is a reaction in which a substance reactants with oxygen gas, releasing energy in the form of light and heat. Combustion reactions must involve O2 as one reactant. The combustion of hydrogen gas produces water vapor (see Figure below).
- 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(g)
Notice that this reaction also qualifies as a combination reaction.
Hindenburg was a hydrogen-filled airship that suffered an accident upon its attempted landing in New Jersey in 1937. The hydrogen immediately combusted in a huge fireball, destroying the airship and killing 36 people. The chemical reaction was a simple one: hydrogen combining with oxygen to produce water.
Many combustion reactions occur with a hydrocarbon, a compound made up solely of carbon and hydrogen. The products of the combustion of hydrocarbons are carbon dioxide and water. Many hydrocarbons are used as fuel because their combustion releases very large amounts of heat energy. Propane (C3H8) is a gaseous hydrocarbon that is commonly used as the fuel source in gas grills.
- C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)
Practice Problem 11.6: Combustion Reactions
Ethanol can be used as a fuel source in an alcohol lamp. The formula for ethanol is C2H5OH. Write the balanced equation for the combustion of ethanol.
Step 1: Plan the problem
Ethanol and oxygen are the reactants. As with a hydrocarbon, the products of the combustion of an alcohol are carbon dioxide and water.
Step 2: Solve
Write the skeleton equation: C2H5OH(l) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(g)
Balance the equation.
- C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g)
Step 3: Think about your result
Combustion reactions must have oxygen as a reactant. Note that the water that is produced is in the gas rather than the liquid state because of the high temperatures that accompany a combustion reaction.
- Write and balance combustion reactions for the following compounds.
- octane (C8H18)
- sucrose (C12H22O11)

Points to Consider
Balanced equations allow chemists to control reactions quantitatively. The coefficients in a balanced equation represent the ideal molar ratio for the reactants in the given reaction.
- How can a balanced chemical equation be used to calculate how much of a certain product will be formed in a reaction or how much of a certain reactant will be needed to perform the reaction?

This time it came in a little brown box, not one of those red, white and blue boxes...but its what's insde that counts, right?
I came across this beauty very recently from Tom Crook, of Mississippi Scratch Box Turkey Calls. He has been building these scratch boxes since 1989, and this is a great little scratcher for sure!
Its ambrosia maple, and #2 of 2 in this wood. It has a mineral-stained poplar striker, and a straight cut sound board, versus a rounded sound board on many other scratch boxes I've seen.
It sounds terrific -- nice raspy yelp, perfect little clucks, and a sweet sounding purr.
Clearly I've been bitten by the scratch box bug...gonna be a good spring...
I can't stop picking it up, running it, and staring at it -- its beautiful wood, complete with worm holes!
A very good looking call, don't you think?

(The GRAMMY Museum will host The Drop: Susanna Hoffs on July 16. Hoffs will discuss her new album, Someday, perform a brief selection of songs and take questions from the audience. For ticket information, click here.)
Singer/songwriter and Bangles co-founder Susanna Hoffs is set to release a new solo album, Someday, on July 17. Ahead of the album's release, GRAMMY.com has your exclusive first listen to the song "Always Enough."
"This album was inspired by my yearning to sing songs that were as melodic and emotional as my favorite music of the 1960s," says Hoffs regarding Someday. Produced and orchestrated by Mitchell Froom (Sheryl Crow, Paul McCartney, Bonnie Raitt), the album spans 10 songs, eight of which were co-written by Hoffs and Nashville-based musician Andrew Brassell.
Ripe with surprises, Someday features the summery "This Is The Place," the Baroque/folk-styled "November Sun" and the sophisticated "Picture Me," the latter combining Burt Bacharach-inspired sensibilities and modern production with Hoffs' emotive vocal. The album also includes "Raining," a song originally written with Mike Campbell of Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers in 1989.
A native of Los Angeles, Hoffs co-founded the Bangles in the early '80s with sisters Debbie and Vicki Peterson. As the group's main frontwoman, her vocals helped propel hits such as "Eternal Flame," "Manic Monday," "Walk Like An Egyptian," and "In Your Room." The Bangles released their most recent album, Sweetheart Of The Sun, in 2011. As a solo artist, Hoffs released her debut solo album, When You're A Boy, in 1991, followed by her sophomore effort, 1996's Susanna Hoffs. More recently, she collaborated with singer/songwriter Matthew Sweet on a pair of cover albums, Under The Covers Vol. 1 (2006) and Under The Covers Vol. 2 (2009), re-examining hits from the '60s and '70s.
These are the most read, shared and discussed articles on GRAMMY.com right now.

Massturkey1, A lot of folks will disagree with me. I do not put a lot of stock in the VHS and DVD's. All though some do have their merits, I would suggest to get to know a local turkey hunter with a good reputation to show you the basics and all. Today it is not like it was years ago when no information was being let out.
Good advice by mark hay and gobblerman and the treetop tukey DVD.
Denny Gulvis has a couple good informational tapes out, he is from PA.
Hold off on DVD's or VHS tapes. I have a ton of them I got for free from guiding the Primo's, Hunting the Country, and a few others at Quantico. You pretty much name it I got it.
I normally lend them out but if you want to just pay postage I will send some you may want to look at based on others opinions and suggestions. Just save you a few bucks, I do not know what they are selling for today. Check E-Bay, there may be some good deals there also.
PM me if you are interested I will help you out with what I can.
Also some good books are Mcilhenny, Everitt, Davis and Turpin put out by Old Masters who Lovett Williams now has the rights to. I believe he still has copies for sale.

In a diverse department, proclamations like Moccia's "Jim Crow" riff have sparked fury among BPPA members. Two years ago, after Pax ran a doctored pic of Barack and Michelle Obama saluting Old Glory with their left hands — over a caption that read, "Americans?!? Are they really?!?" — dozens of MAMLEO members signed a letter to the editor decrying the image. Speaking to BostonGlobe writer Maria Cramer, MAMLEO's Ellison noted, "there is a huge racial divide in this department, and the Pax Centurion is a large part of the problem." In character, Carnell responded with a judo flip: "Larry," he wrote, "any 'huge racial divide' exists only in the fertile imaginations of real racists, and not in the pages of the Pax."
With his current newsletter, Carnell hit a particular Occupy nerve by ripping Bil Lewis, a progressive activist and school teacher who wrote to Pax in response to anti-Occupy sentiments. "Bil(L)," Carnell wrote, parenthetically arguing "men" spell the name B-I-L-L, "let me cut to the chase: you are a hypocrite and a fraud, as are all of your fellow 'Occupiers' . . . They see a free meal and a dumb-liberal sucker offering something-for-nothing, and they're going to take full advantage, just like a seagull or a pigeon." Never mind that Carnell himself collected nearly $52,000 in sick pay last year for a total salary of $97,729 (down from his 2010 take of $155,399).
Carnell has been gunning for Occupy all along, ever since working several details at the group's Dewey Square encampment last year. He and other Pax scribes have used their columns to viciously deride Occupiers, the lot of whom, according to Carnell, are "losers," "anarchists, socialists, communists, graying hippies, level-three sex offenders, paroled criminals . . . fakes, frauds, phonies and nitwits from affluent communities . . . [who have] never worked a day in their privileged lives." (Carnell is not against all protests. In 2003, for example, he was quoted in the Globe, warning officers from outside Boston not to cross a planned picket line at the Democratic National Convention.)
Rallying around Lewis, Occupiers last Tuesday alerted roughly 50 of the newsletter's sponsors to the content that appears beside their ads — not just the anti-Occupy screeds, but all of it. They also contacted Davis, who tweeted back, "This juvenile conduct is wrong and not rep of today's officer." The first advertiser to react was Simmons College; in an e-mail to activists, the school's Vice-President for Marketing and Admission Cheryl Howard wrote, "While Simmons has no control of the editorial content in any of the publications in which we advertise, I really regret our inclusion in this publication."
In a follow-up interview, Howard told the Phoenix that her office had intended to support the BPPA Scholarship Fund for the children of Boston police, not the Pax. She also said that Simmons would never intentionally advertise anywhere that "does not support inclusion." At the time of this writing, LoJack and Harpoon Brewery have also pulled support from the newsletter, similarly citing that they meant to support scholarships, and were unaware that the BPPA peddles polarizing hatred.

Are you still using the web to add Advogato entries?
Check out DaVinci. It slices! It dices! It even juliennes!
if I haven't been responding to mail, sorry.
the "patch" to LogJam is now nearly 12,000 lines.
- configuration dialogs
- new account druid
- much much sexier interface (icons for menus and such)
- local journal support
- cut/copy/paste (never counts as a feature until you have to implement it under X :p )
i've set a personal deadline for a release Sep 5, so that I can get one bugfix release out before work starts. so much to do, will have to cut back on sleep
it will be released with a sourceforge account as "DaVinci" until it is feature complete with logjam and merges into logjam cvs.
nastiest bugs encountered in the last week:
- stale signals after the object has been refcounted away
- miscasting a pointer and writing over random bits in other data structures
Wow. Cut/copy/paste is a surprisingly huge pain in the butt. You'd think Gtk/GNOME would insulate you from this stuff.
Logjam Advogato support: screenshots!
Logjam now supports:
I've been hacking up an Advogato journalling client. It's pretty slick. The code was originally based on logjam, but I have ended up rewriting everything, piece by piece.
Eight months since my last entry here. I've been keeping my journal here instead.
Note to self:
Make sure you get more than 5 hours of sleep before undergoing 9 hours of technical interviews. But I have to say, Laminar Software ranks pretty high on the "coolness" scale.
Skiing locally today and tomorrow, flying to Austin on Thursday.
So many things have happened, and my diary entries aren't going to be able to catch up.
Trilogy flyout (Austin, TX). Escalate flyout (south of San Francisco, CA). Much work. Some play. Dreamcast -- Soul Calibur in particular.
Some awkwardness -- note to self: asking a girl to dinner and finding out about her boyfriend afterward is embarassing.
2 weeks left, studying punctuated by exams. Then Florida for Christmas break, then Wyoming for some skiing, then back to Pittsburgh for a short bit of do-nothing relaxation before the next semester.
Many good books during the long plane flights: The Power of One (Bryce Courtenay), Microserfs (Douglas Coupland), Jumpers (Tom Stoppard), Roll-out Racquetball (Charles Brumfield). And I reread The Unbearable Lightness of Being (Milan Kundera) for like the third time. I've also been on a psychology-of-gender kick that started with my Uncle's recommendation of Natalie Angier's Woman and is currently in the middle of Deborah Blum's Sex on the Brain. Some good discussions of feminism versus evolutionary psychology along the way.
There was some irony in the fact that I read Microserfs on the plane flight out to interview in the bay area.
So this whole growing-up facing the realworld graduating from college thing. It's kind of thrilling, really. Rent.net must love me for the ad hits they get as I think, "wow, I could live here if I lived in Austin" and a few seconds later, "or I could live here, or here, or here".
Also looking at a few Pittsburgh start-ups. Funny how unattractive start-ups have become these days: lots of work, little pay, poor stock options. Such a switch from a couple of years ago. (When it was lots of work, little pay, millionaire stock options.) But it could be fun.
Donovan's Compass project is apparently coming along fabulously, I'll have to check out the source code in a bit.
So, I should really be cleaning my room. Actually that's a lie. I should really be studying for exams, but I'll be cleaning my room instead.
Did you know that a loaded Audi TT only costs $35k?
New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.
Keep up with the latest Advogato features by reading the Advogato status blog.

Build your own
silent dust collector.......
Pictured is
a very efficient portable unit built
from a dryer blower / motor, cotton bag, vent hose and some scrap plywood. A call
to your local washing machine repairman should supply you with a source for a
used blower/motor combination, the rest is easy.
If you cant find a used blower/motor you can find a
new one easy enough. Most any Heating and Cooling Supply center can provide you a
high cfm blower/motor unit for less than one hundred dollars. Look for
a minimum of 300-400 cfm.
The main advantage to this type of dust collector is
virtually no noise and the inlet board rests between your legs forming a laptop work bench
to work over. This is a natural position to work in. Most carvers tend to work
from their lap instead of a bench top like most dust collectors are designed for.
Since bench top space is at a premium in most carving rooms this lap model works
best. Slide the blower / dust bag portion of the unit under a bench and inlet is
free to move about the room as needed.
To make your own dust collector follow
these simple steps:
Obtain a blower/motor combo unit either new or
used like the one shown.
Fasten it to a piece of scrap plywood for a base. Cut a piece of wood to
adapt the blower outlet to a round disc. Router a channel around the adapter to
secure a dust bag with a large rubber O-ring. Fasten the adapter to the blower case
and caulk any seams that may allow dust to escape on the way to the collection bag.
Using an adjustable hose clamp fasten a 6 foot length, or longer, piece of
flexible duct hose to the blower inlet. Most blower cases have a flange in which to
attach a hose, if not fabricate one to fit a 4" hose or larger from
scrap wood and PVC pipe.
Cut a piece of wood large enough to cover your lap. Next cut a hole
large enough to accept a 3" long piece of PVC pipe the same size OD as your duct hose
Epoxy the 3" length of PVC pipe into the hole with one end flush with the work
surface and the other hanging down below the board at least 2". Slid the duct
hose over the PVC pipe adapter and secure with an adjustable hose clamp. Drill two
holes in the board and tie a small rope to the board, this will act as a belt keeping the
inlet board in your lap as you carve.
Tape down a piece of screen to prevent your carving, tools, etc.
from being sucked into the blower. The blower wheel will shred anything that falls
down the tube in an instant!! I would rather not discuss
how well it destroys what it eats, I still haven't got over the "hummingbird
carving incident". Think of it as a garbage disposal in your lap. Trust me,
use a screen.
Sew a cotton bag or use an old diaper bag as a dust bag. To fasten
the bag to the blower case either sew in a large rubber O-Ring or elastic into the neck of
the bag. Or you can simply slide the bag in place over the blower outlet and then
put the O-ring over the bag end on the adapter. Which ever way works best for you,
the end result is the same.....dust goes in the bag!
Note: Air can only enter
the bag through the inlet at a rate in which the air can leave the fabric of
the bag. A small, tightly woven material as a bag attached to the
largest blower will filter no more air than a small blower with a large,
medium weight material bag. Since these blowers are high volume and
low pressure you need to be concerned with how easy the bag will release
filtered air. If you cant easily breath through the fabric by holding
it to your face the blower cant force air through it very easy as
well. I prefer a loose weave material for a dust bag. It may
pass a little dust at first but it will quickly seal those tiny air leaks in
the fabric with sawdust seconds after you turn it on. Once a layer of
sawdust lines the inner surface of the bag it becomes a pre
filter of sorts, especially after a few minutes when the dust bag becomes
static charged and grabs every particle that comes near the bag wall.
The key to this whole project....... The larger the bag you use the more surface area you
have to use in filtering air quickly and the faster your air flow into the
inlet will be. Match the right bag to a blower and you will have a
small tornado sucking up dust over the lap board. I have a small
300 cfm blower running a cotton bag 4 foot long x 2 foot wide and it draws
more air than another with a 750 cfm blower with a 2 foot long bag, also 2
foot wide. Remember, most of the cfm ratings on blowers are rated as
free wheeling no restriction so don't be fooled by the rating. I have
seen large blower wheels run by small motors that slow to a crawl when you
choke the exhaust down with a dust bag. Dryer blowers, like the one
shown here are often over powered if anything, since the same motor is used
to turn a drum full of wet clothes , so you shouldn't have a problem there.
I listed a new blower from Grainger's below that works excellent if you cant
find a used dryer blower.
Commercial dust bags used on shop style dust collectors are
too constrictive to use with this type of low pressure high volume
blower. They are meant for a high pressure blower that has the strength
to force air through the dense fabric.
Sources for pre-made bags-
Gander Mountain (36" Cotton Camping
Gear Bags)
Dicks Sporting Goods (36" Cotton
Camping Gear Bags)
Bass Pro Shops (36" Cotton Camping
Gear Bags)
or any other sporting goods store that sells camping gear will have these
bags for less than $10 ea.. They are often sold in a little black mesh draw
tight bag in the camping section. When you buy one of these bags be
sure to run it thru the washing machine machine to remove the heavy starch
they use in the fabric, it alone tends to restrict the material.
Vent Hose-
Woodcraft stores sell
a length of clear 4" heavy vinyl hose that works perfect for less than
$20 a 10 foot length. They have 6" as well.
New Blowers-
Grainger Supply
Their Dayton Blower #4C444A is a great blower for this
purpose. Small, lightweight, silent operation, and a strong air
mover. Cost is under $100 the last I checked.
Used Blowers-
Any appliance repair shop or city dump can produce good drier blowers to
serve the purpose well. Or keep an eye open on trash day in your
neighborhood. Somebody is always putting an old drier to the curb, and
9 out of 10 times it's because of another problem, the blowers are generally
fine. The older the drier the better since most of the late model stuff uses
a cheaper blower setup.
Or look for a heating and cooling repair company. Some of
the smaller gas furnaces use compact squirrel cage type blowers that work well
for dust collectors. We have one company here locally that leaves the old
furnaces behind the shop as they collect them. Once they have a large
enough collection they rent a dumpster and haul them away. Until then they
let people remove parts for the asking. I am sure there are many places
like this out there. Look and ask around.

Anyone see it?, anyone care? what are your thoughts?
I liked Alicia Keyes performance with Lenny, and Stevie, and Jet did a pretty good job as well although very short. That new guy ?Kanye? West performance was pretty good as well although Chakka Khan singing was awful for the first part of it! Other than that I only have 6 words for ya, "where has all the rock gone?!!!!" why don't they just call the VMA's the BET or Ace awards! I know hip-hops marketing value is still high, but COME ON... Puh-lease! Enough already!
And if one more artists thanX Jesus Christ, the Lord or God, or promotes/plugs their new albumn/movie, I think I'll kick my tv screen in!
Hell, and I like hip-hop(to an extant), but I'd rather Sean Combs(refuse to call him whatever his name is) hand the mic over to Mace than have to listen to him go on about his high and mightyness! and what was up with Bruce Willis? Is he that hard up for PR? I see a new chain of restaurants poping up... the B & Diddy Hollyweird freakshow extravaganza!
I'm not being to hard now am I?
I don't know what did you guys think?!

Solderless Barrel System
Fancy Black Walnut Stock
Pachmayr 752 Decelerator Recoil Pad
Game Scene Engraving
Gold-Plated Trigger
The Model 37 has gained the reputation of being an easy gun to handle and point and its reliable bottom-eject action has long made it a favorite of both right and left-handed shooters. The Featherlight version of the Model 37 comes in 12-gauge, 16-gauge, 20-gauge, and 28-gauge and features a receiver that is machined from a single block of steel and etched with classic game scene engraving. Ithaca's solderless barrel system gives the 37 the strongest, truest barrel of any shotgun and a lengthened forcing cone reduces recoil and shot deformation. The fancy black walnut stock and forend is finely checkered.
