|Offensive Coordinator/Quarterbacks
Brian Lindgren begins his third season as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in his sixth overall on the offensive staff at Northern Arizona University.
He originally joined the program as a graduate assistant for the 2006 season and coached the wide receivers. He was promoted to the full-time staff in 2007 and coached the running backs before serving as passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach in 2008.
The offense had a breakout season in 2009 in his second season calling the plays. Overall, NAU ranked fifth in the country in passing offense (308.6) and total offense (439.5) and ninth in passing efficiency (147.8), helping nine players garner all-conference accolades.
Lindgren produced Walter Payton Award finalist Michael Herrick, recording two of the top four, four of the top 21 single-game passing performances in school history and the top two single-game passing totals in Walkup Skydome history in 2009. He threw for a school record 574 yards and four touchdowns against Eastern Washington, shattering the school record of 474 set by Travis Brown against Montana in 1996. An All-Big Sky second team selection, Herrick ranked third in the Big Sky and 15th in the nation in passing efficiency at 149.5 and second in the Big Sky and sixth in the nation in total offense (298.3).
Running back Alex Henderson, who earned All-Big Sky first-team honors, ranked sixth in the nation in rushing per game, while wide receiver Ed Berry, whose 75 receptions and 1,075 yards are among the top-five single-season totals in school history, was an All-American and ranked among the national top 10 in receptions per game and receiving yards.
In 2010, Zach Bauman was among the top freshmen running backs in the country in rushing yards per game, one of four freshmen in Division I to average more than 94 yards. He broke the school's freshman rushing mark, ranked 25th overall in the FCS in rushing per game and was the top freshman in the FCS. Herrick finished his career as the school's all-time career leader in completion percentage and yards per attempts (7.5), while leaving his mark on the record books in several categories including touchdowns, passing yards, pass completions and pass attempts.
In his first season as offensive coordinator in 2008, NAU gained 772 yards of total offense against the New Mexico Highlands, shattering the school record set in 1989 against Nevada of 674. It was the highest single-game total in the FCS and second overall in all Division I last season. The offensive unit produced the Big Sky Newcomer of the Year and eight All-Big Sky selections while ranking 23rd in the nation in total offense.
During the 2007 season the running backs were one of the most productive units in the Big Sky Conference, ranking 13th in the nation overall. NAU led the league in rushing by more than 50 yards per game while producing three players who ranked among the top 100 rushers in the Football Championship Subdivision, the only school to accomplish the feat. Both Alex Henderson (82.5 yards per game) and Lionel Scott (74.7) earned All-Big Sky honors.
During the 2006 season Lindgren tutored the wide receiving corp into productive group that helped NAU rank first in scoring offense (34.4 points per game) and total offense (405.1) in the Big Sky Conference, fifth and sixth respectively on the national charts. Junior Alex Watson was named a consensus first-team All-American by the Walter Camp Foundation, Sports Network, Associated Press and College Sporting News (Fabulous FCS 50), He recorded a team-best and school-record 82 receptions for 1,017 yards and a school-record 15 touchdowns. Sophomore Skyler Moore and junior Kenny Mahone combined for another 79 receptions, 1,161 yards and 15 touchdowns, earning All-Big Sky Conference honorable mention honors.
Lindgren graduated in 2004 from the University of Idaho where he received his bachelor of science in business and marketing. Lindgren was a three-year letterwinner from 1999-03 and was voted as the team captain in 2002. He was first team All-Sun Belt Conference at quarterback in 2002. Lindgren also holds school records for passing touchdowns in a single game (6), most yards passing in a single game (637), and most completions in a single game (49). He also set the NCAA record for the most total offensive yards by a sophomore (657). Lindgren accumulated 6,451 yards passing and 44 touchdowns in his three-year career.
Lindgren received academic All-Sun Belt Conference honors from 2001-03. He was also awarded the Kathy Clark Scholar Athlete Award which is given to the highest GPA out of the graduating seniors. Lindgren recently earned his master's degree in educational leadership from NAU in 2007.
Prior to NAU, Lindgren also served as quarterbacks coach at the University of Redlands in 2005. He is married to the former Bradee Fitzpatrick. They have two children, including son Bronson Fitz Lindgren and daughter Blake Anne Lindgren.

This application is a divisional of prior application Ser. No. 320,584, filed Nov. 12, 1981, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,436,493 which was a continuation-in-part of prior application Ser. No. 077,544, filed Sept. 21, 1979, now abandoned.
This invention relates to a pneumatically-operated diaphragm pump utilized in a Post-mix beverage syrup dispensing system and more specifically to a reciprocating pump including a spring actuated reversing means for reversing the direction of a reciprocating pump at the end of its respective strokes.
Diaphragm pumps are widely used particularly for pumping liquid solutions and highly viscous materials and are frequently used under conditions such that the viscosity of the fluid being pumped, the head of the suction side of the pump and the back pressure on the pump discharge may all vary as conditions under which the pump is operating vary. The speed of such pumps has generally been controlled by inserting an adjustable valve in the air line leading to the pump. However, this approach requires that the operation of the pump be kept under continuous observation and the valve adjusted to suit varying conditions, otherwise the speed of the pump will vary substantially depending upon the conditions of operation. For example, if the back pressure on the pump should increase or decrease for any particular reason, or if the viscosity of the liquid being pumped should vary, then the speed of operation and the quantity of liquid being pumped per unit of time will accordingly be affected. Therefore, it is highly desirable that the pump be controlled such that it operates at a substantially constant speed under varying conditions. Furthermore, it is essential that the entire pumping cycle be completed so as to ensure continuous delivery of the medium being pumped at a contant consistency or concentration. In order to ensure the latter, means have been suggested such as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,008,984 wherein opposed coil springs are provided for assisting the respective valve member in the completion of its pumping cycle. The coil compression springs of identical force under the pressurized gas system assist in completion of the pumping cycle first in one direction, and then by asserting a positive reversing effect when either of the springs becomes fully compressed. Although providing a reversing mechanism for the double acting pump disclosed, there are inherent disadvantages with such a system. For example, if for some reason the pressurized system is effected in such a way that a back pressure is created or established so as to inhibit or reverse the pumping cycle before it is completed, there is no means for overcoming the undesirable effect, and the fully compressed state of the spring is not reached. Thus, it is possible that the pumping cycle could be reversed regardless of the presence of the compression springs, before the cycle is completed, thus effecting the efficiency, if not the complete purpose, of the reciprocating pump.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a reciprocating diaphragm pump for delivering, under constant pressure, syrup to a Post-mix beverage dispensing system which will overcome the above noted disadvantages.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a double-acting reciprocating pump for syrup in a Post-mix beverage dispensing system wherein a reversing means is provided for reversing the direction of the pump at the end of each respective stroke.
Yet, still a further object of the present invention is to provide a gas-operated diaphragm pump including a specialized valve, actuated by a springloaded member attached to a common shaft, which alternates the supply of pressurized gas to the respective diaphragms.
It is still a further object of the present invention to provide a double-acting reciprocating pneumatic pump for dispensing syrup to a dispensing outlet wherein the pump cycle reversing system includes a snap-acting reversing means which ensures the completion of the pumping cycle and precludes the sticking of the pneumatic reversing mechanism in an intermediate position.
Yet, still another object of the present invention is to provide a pneumatic double-acting reciprocating pump having a reversing system which includes a valve, a valve actuating member, and a snap-acting spring member which reliably directs the supply of pressurized gas to the surface of either one of the two diaphragms in a cyclic manner.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a reciprocating pneumatic diaphragm pump including a reversing means which allows for the dispersing of fluid from either one of two diaphragm chambers at the respective ends of the pump in a systematic, controlled manner.
Other objects and further scope of applicability of the present invention will become more apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. It should be understood, however, that the detailed description and accompanying drawings, while indicating preferred embodiments of the present invention, are given by way of illustration only since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art. Any such changes and modifications should be considered to be within the scope of this invention.
The foregoing objects and others are accomplished in accordance with the present invention generally speaking by providing a pumping device comprising a pair of flexible diaphragms mounted on the respective ends of a common shaft. The outer surface of the diaphragms are in contact with the liquid to be dispensed by the system, more particularly syrup for a Post-mix beverage dispensing system. The chamber within the pump housing contains an inner wall in which passages are provided for directing compressed air, introduced into the reciprocating pump, to the surfaces of the diaphragms. The flow of air is controlled by a reversing valve adapted so as to redirect the flow of compressed air to the respective diaphragm at the completion of each stroke of the pump in a cyclic manner. A valve actuating member or yoke is provided which engages the shaft within the inner chamber of the pump housing and travels with the pumping action of the shaft. The yoke is designed so as to engage the reversing valve during the terminal phase of the pumping stroke, thus activating the valve and reversing the piston action of the pump. To complete the pump reversing system, a snap-acting spring actuating means interconnected with the yoke of the shaft, is centered within the inner chamber of the housing of the pump, pivotably mounted beneath the shaft connecting the diaphragms. The valve is provided with O-rings positioned within the valve body with respect to the air passages of the valve such that during the first half of the reciprocating cycle, pressurized gas is introduced through the respective passageways and directed to the air chamber of one of th diaphragms. At the same time, a passage is provided for exhaust gases to be released from the air chamber of the remaining diaphragm. Upon interaction with the shaft yoke and the spring mounted actuating means, the relationship of the valve openings to the pressurized gas acting on the surface of the respective diaphragm is changed at the completion of the pumping stroke so as to reverse the action of the pump. The snap-action mechanism provided precludes the sticking of the pneumatic reversing system in an intermediate position.
In operation, pressurized gas is introduced through a passageway into a valve member and is directed via a passageway within the inner wall of the pump housing to the air chamber of one of the diaphragms within the pump. As the piston action of the diaphragm forces syrup from the diaphragm chamber out the appropriate passage to the dispensing outlet, movement of the shaft also moves the remaining diaphragm in a non-pressurizing direction. This same shaft movement also engages the shaft yoke. As the shaft yoke moves, it initiates the pivotal action of a pair of snap-acting compression springs which, prior to rotating off-center, are pushing against each other. As the spring rotate off-center, they uncoil and push the shaft and yoke along in the direction of the established movement. The action of the spring mechanism ensures that the movement of the diaphragm, initiated by the air pressure, is taken to completion by the snap action of the compression springs, while at the same time reversing the flow of pressurized air within the valve member. This procedure is then repeated as long as the dispensing outlet is open and the syrup is being dispensed as a pressurized stream. When the dispensing outlet is closed, sufficient back pressure is exerted on the diaphragms to prevent shaft movement.
It has been determined in the course of the present invention that a reciprocating diaphragm pump for syrup in a Post-mix beverage dispensing system can be provided such that the liquid can be delivered under controlled pressure conditions in a reliable manner. A reversing valve is provided which includes a pair of compression springs bearing one on the other so as not to apply pressure of the bearing surfaces on the pump shaft.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the control or reversing valve, the reciprocating actuating member and the opposed coil springs are provided in a common housing or module. This module is removably secured to the pump body adjacent to the pump shaft and can be removed as a unit for ease of repair. The module housing is preferably molded from plastic in two pieces which slide together with suitable tongue and groove elements. A top one of said pieces houses the control or reversing valve, and has a slot on the underside thereof for receiving the yoke or actuating member of the reversing mechanism. The sides of the slot form bearing surfaces parallel to the longitudinal axis of the pump shaft. In this embodiment, the yoke slides or reciprocates on these bearing surfaces defined by the slot rather than on the pump shaft. A bottom one of said two pieces comprises a support for the opposed snap-acting spring mechanism of the present invention which is sandwiched between said top and bottom pieces. The yoke or actuating member has a pair of upwardly extending spaced arms for engaging opposite ends of the control valve element when it reciprocates, and a pair of downwardly extending spaced arms for engaging a transverse pin in the pump shaft as the shaft reciprocates. A central pin in the yoke couples it to the snap-acting spring mechanism. This embodiment of the present invention also provides an improved spring mounting means for the opposed compression springs and a unique bearing structure therefor.
The present invention further provides a keying or coding technique to assure proper assembly of the inlet and outlet check valves of the pump. These valves are disposed in cylindrical cartridges with coded protrusions on the surface thereof to be received by complementary coded slots in the respective inlet and outlet ports. These protrusions and slots are so arranged that it is impossible to insert a cartridge into the ports backwards with respect to the proper direction of operation. Thus, replacement of the valve cartridges can be properly performed by an unskilled operator and one valve cartridge can be used as either an inlet or outlet valve.
The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given hereinbelow and the accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only and thus are not limitative of the present invention.

FIG. 12 is an end view of an end section of the pump of FIGS. 8 and 9, including inlet and outlet ports with coded groove configurations therein for selectively receiving either the front or back ends of the valve cartridge of FIG. 11A.
Referring now to FIGS. 1 and 1A, there is seen a cross-sectional side and top view, respectively, of a first embodiment of the reciprocating pump of the present invention generally designated 10, comprising a housing 11 having an input manifold 12A and an output manifold 12B in its top wall for carrying the syrup to be pumped from the inlet SI through the respective chambers discussed below to the pump outlet SO. Within an inner chamber 13 of the pump is positioned a shaft 14 interconnecting diaphragms 16A and 16B. An actuating member or yoke 17 with protrusions or arms 17A is slidably supported on the shaft 14 by the longitudinal bore 17B, FIG. 6, passing therethrough. A reversing valve 40 is attached to the inner wall 21 of housing 11 within the inner chamber 13 of the pump. The shaft 14 is press-fit with a pin 25, which upon operation of the pump, travels with the movement of the shaft a predetermined distance before engaging an end of slot 26 provided in the yoke 17. Shaft 14 is mounted for sliding movement in O-ring seals OR at its respective ends. Pivotally mounted beneath the yoke and interconnected therewith is a spring actuating member 27 (FIGS. 2A, 2b, 3A, 3B) within the housing chamber 13. The reversing effect of the valve 40 is facilitated as a result of the interrelationship between the actuating yoke member 17 and the spring actuating means 27 and alternately directs pressurized gas introduced through passageway 22 to the respective air chambers 15A and 15B, through passageways 23 and 24, to apply pressure to the respective diaphragms 16A and 16B. The reversing valve 40 comprises a valve body 41 and spool element 42 with O-rings 43. A more complete discussion of the operation of the reversing valve can be found below with respect to FIGS. 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4 and 5. Each diaphragm of the pump is constructed of a flexible material, such as rubber, secured to the inner walls of the pump housing at positions 20.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the diaphragms further include a metal or plastic piston on the outer face of the respective diaphragm and a metal retaining cap on the inner surface of the respective diaphragm, as illustrated in FIG. 7 to be discussed hereinafter.
The pumping cycle of the pump of the present invention and the flow of fluid therethrough can be best illustrated by reference to FIG. 1A. Fluid to be pumped is introduced through an inlet SI to input manifold 12A which extends across the top of the pump and communicates with fluid chambers 28 and 29 via normally closed check valves 31L, 31R. When the fluid pressure in input manifold 12A exceeds the pressure in either chamber 28 or 29, check valves 31L, 31R open. Since the pump of the present invention is a reciprocating pump, the fluid pressures in chambers 28, 29 are always in the opposite state. That is, if the pump shaft in FIG. 1A is moving to the right, chamber 28 has a higher fluid pressure than manifold 12A, and chamber 29 has a lower fluid pressure than manifold 12A. Under these conditions, check valve 31L opens, introducing fluid into chamber 29 and check valve 31R is closed. Thus, as the pump cycles, check valves 31L, 31R alternately open and close.
Outlet check valves 32L, 32R, disposed in an output manifold 12B, function in substantially the same manner. That is, when the pressure output manifold 12B is less than the pressure in one of the respective chambers 28, 29, the check valve in that chamber opens, discharging fluid therefrom to pump outlet SO. In the above example, with the pump shaft 14 moving to the right, the pressure in chamber 28 is high, thus opening valve 32R and permitting the fluid therein to discharge via manifold 12B and pump outlet SO.
The check valves 31L, 31R, 32L, 32R are substantially identical except for the respective orientations thereof. Each is formed from rubber and includes a central stem fixedly mounted in the pump wall, and a disc-shaped seat B, which normally seats on fluid ports C. When biased by fluid pressure to open, disc-shaped seat B flexes away from ports C, permitting fluid to pass therethrough.
The above-described outlet check valves are disposed at the highest positions of chambers 28, 29 to preclude the formation of air pockets which could be sucked out through pump outlet SO, resulting in an uneven flow of fluid.
FIG. 6 illustrates the details of actuating member or yoke 17, which is mounted for movement on shaft 14. Yoke 17 includes a pair of upstanding arms 17A described hereinbefore for engaging the valve 40 and switching the same from one state to another. A longitudinal bore 17B is provided in yoke 17 for receiving pump shaft 14. After pump shaft 14 is inserted in bore 17B, pin 25, described hereinbefore is press-fit into aperture 14A in Shaft 14. A bottom plate 17C is suitably attached to the bottom of yoke 17, thus supporting a pair of pins 39 therein. As will be discussed hereinafter, pins 39 support one pair of ends of spring members of the snap-acting mechanism illustrated in FIGS. 2B and 3B.
Referring now to FIG. 2A, 2B, there is seen in cross-section the pump mechanism set forth in FIG. 1 representing a pressure stroke of the pump in the direction indicated at the point of engagement of the pin 25 of shaft 14 with an end of slot 26 in the shaft yoke 17. At this instant, the yoke is picked up by pin 25 and begins to move with the shaft and the spring actuating member 27, connected to the yoke, begins to pass over center. The diaphragm 16 applies pressure to the liquid present in the chamber 28, which is released via check valve 32R into passageway 12B and directed out through the pump outlet SO to the respective discharge stations. FIGS. 2B, 3B represent the position of the diaphragm, shaft and yoke at the completion of the stroke, As the reversing mechanism, generally indicated 27, moves over center, there is produced a snap action effect which thrusts one arm 17A of the yoke against the protruding end of the spool 42, thus changing immediately the position of the O-rings of the valve so as to suddenly reverse the flow of pressurized air through the valve 40 at the completion of the stroke, and reverse the piston action of the pump.
FIGS. 2B and 3B illustrate the details of the spring reversing mechanism 27. The spring reversing mechanism in one embodiment comprises a coil spring 36 wrapped about a pin 37 and pivotally attached by way of pin 38 to the housing and pin 39 to the yoke 17. Upon engagement by the pump shaft, the yoke 17 will move in the direction of the stroke of the pump, which in turn rotates pins 37 over center about pins 38 such that the springs 36 take over the push the yoke in the direction of the established movement at a speed faster than the shaft movement, until the yoke hits against the spool 42 of the valve mechanism so as to reverse the direction of the flow of pressurized air within the system and establish the piston action of the pump in the opposite direction. The position of the compression springs and yoke at the ends of the stroke are represented in FIG. 3B. The presence of the pins 37 within the coil spring 36 prevents the spring member from buckling during the movement of the piston during the operation of the pump. Alternately, torsion springs 36T may be substituted for the coil springs 36 of FIG. 2B as illustrated in FIG. 2C to provide the snap-acting actuating means of the present invention. The yoke 17 slides or is pushed along by the shaft and spring mechanism 27 of the pump, first in one direction then in a reverse direction according to the reversing action of the valve 40.
In FIGS. 4 and 5, there is illustrated a simplified enlarged cross-sectional view of the reversing valve 40 of the present invention which is represented herein as a spool valve comprising a valve body 41, the spool 42 having three O-rings 43 intermittently positioned thereon within the valve cavity 44. Within the upper area of the valve body are located air passages 45 coupled to passage 22 of FIG. 1, for introducing the pressurized gas into the valve cavity 44, and 46 and 47 are coupled to passages 23, 24 of FIG. 1, for directing air through the valve to the surface of the respective diaphragms of the pump. The valve 40 herein represented shows air under pressure being introduced to the valve cavity 44 through passageway 45 such that during the first half of the reciprocating cycle, the air is directed to the respective air chamber 15B, through passageway 46 and passageway 24 (see FIG. 1), while at the same time remaining passageway 47 provides for exhaust gases to be released as illustrated from the air chamber of the remaining or opposite diaphragm air chamber 15A. Upon contact by the left protruding end of the spool 42 with the yoke 17 as discussed above, the spool 42 is thrust to the right such that at the end of the pumping action the O-rings 43 shift their position as illustrated in FIG. 5, and the pressurized gas is now directed in the opposite direction so as to be introduced into the air chamber 15A of the diaphragm 16A, thus driving the pump in the opposite direction. In this position, the right end of the spool now projects from the valve cavity 44 and awaits to be engaged by an arm 17A of the shaft yoke in the reverse action of the piston.
In operation, the valve 40 alternates the air flow through the respective passages 23, 24 to the air chambers 15A, 15B of the diaphragms 16A, 16B. The compression springs 36 or 36T interconnected to the yoke continuously urge the shaft of the diaphragm pump first in one direction then the other, responsive to the location of the yoke 17 along the shaft. The pressurized air is introduced into the air chambers 15A, 15B behind the respective diaphragms 16A, 16B and drives the diaphragms so as to discharge the liquid from the diaphragm chambers. As stated above, the yoke 17 on the shaft 14 initially moves in conjunction with the movement of the shaft upon engagement of an end of slot 26 with the pin 25 in shaft 14. The compression springs 36 or 36T, which at the time of engagement are pushing against each other, with substantially no net force in a direction transverse to the pump shaft, pivot over center and apply a further driving force to the yoke which is then caused to move quickly by the snap-action of the springs 36 to seat the projecting portions or arms 17A of the yoke 17 against the protruding spool 42 of the valve 41. This changes the positions of the O-rings within the valve body and reverses the flow of pressurized air therein thus completing the first half of the cycle of the diaphragm pump. The continuous introduction of pressurized air into the valve 40 initiates the pumping action of the shaft mounted piston in the opposite direction, first compressing the springs 36 or 36T and then repeating the action described above in the opposite direction, the compressed springs now pushing in the opposite direction. The spring reversing mechanism ensures that the movement of either of the diaphragms initiated by the air pressure, is completed, thus preventing premature reversal of the pumping stroke or sticking of the valve 40 in a central position.
Referring now to FIG. 7, there is seen in crosssection a pump construction similar to that discussed above with respect to FIGS. 1 and 1A, except with respect to the structure of diaphragms 16A, 16B. The diaphragms 16A and 16B further include cup-shaped plastic or metal plates 52 on the outer face of the respective diaphragm surface and cup-shaped retaining cap 54 on the inner surface of the respective diaphragms. This configuration eliminates the formation of crevices in the flexible diaphragm.
Preferably, the pump housing is constructed of a molded plastic, as herein represented in FIG. 1, such that the valves are mounted through the pump and all the lines or passageways run inside the plastic housing. This construction eliminates unnecessary joints and external lines which contributes to a more reliable system. As is seen in FIG. 1, the inner wall of the housing comprises one continuous member which surrounds the pump reversing system components. The outer walls of the housing 11 are also fabricated of molded plastic which provides for an overall more desirable construction of the diaphragm pump of the present invention.
Referring in detail to FIGS. 8 and 9, there is illustrated an additional embodiment of a pump construction in accordance with the present invention. FIG. 8 is an exploded view to illustrate how the pump is assembled, and FIG. 9 is a crosssectional view illustrating the pump in a fully assembled condition. The main pump body includes end sections 102 having fluid discharge chambers 105 formed therein and inlet and outlet ports 142, 144, respectively. In addition, each end section 102 has an annular groove or recess for receiving the flexible diaphragms 118 therein about the periphery thereof. The diaphragms 118 may include metal or plastic piston members 119 nested therein. The end sections 102 of the main pump body also include central apertures 107 for slidably receiving the pump shaft 104 extending between and into the respective discharge chambers 105. The shaft 104 is mounted within apertures 107 by suitable O-rings 110, bushings 112 and retainer 114. The ends of the pump shaft 104 are coupled to the diaphragm assembly and, more specifically, pistons 119 by retainers (not shown in FIG. 8 but generally illustrated in FIG. 9) and a suitable washer 116.
The two end sections 102 of the main pump body are molded as one piece with inlet and outlet manifold tubes 143 and 141, respectively, which connect the two end sections 102 and the respective inlet and outlet ports 142, 144, therein. Fluid inlet 139 is provided in manifold tube 143 and fluid outlet 140 is provided in manifold tube 141. Suitable connectors for flexible rubber hoses such as 132 may be secured to the respective inlet and outlets 139 and 140 by suitable O-rings 134, screws 136 and retainer hooks 138.
A plurality of check valves to be described further hereinafter with reference to FIGS. 11 to 12 are provided for insertion into the inlet and outlet ports 142, 144 in the end sections 102. These check valve cartridges include a main cylindrical body 122 with O-rings 124 at the ends thereof and a flexible flapper type of check valve 125 including a flexible disc on a central stem. The external surface of the cylindrical cartridges is provided with coded protrusions or bumps to be described further hereinafter with reference to FIGS. 11 to 12. As will become more fully apparent hereinafter, these coded protrusions 123 fit into coded slots 146 in the respective inlet and outlet chambers 142, 144, the respective configurations of the protrusions and slots being such as to preclude the insertion of the check valve cartridges into the inlet and outlet ports in the wrong direction.
Once all of the respective components such as diaphragms 118, check valve cartridges 122, pump shaft 104 and so forth are inserted into the end section 102 of the main pump body, the end caps 100 may be secured to the end sections 102 by suitable screws 126 which extend through apertures in a peripheral flange of the caps 100 into threaded apertures in the periphery of a flange extending around end sections 102. Thus, the end sections 102 of the main pump body and the end caps 100 screwed thereto define the respective discharge chambers of the pump of this embodiment of the present invention.
It should be noted at this juncture that the check valve cartridges 122 of the present invention become sandwiched between the end sections 102 of the pump body and the end caps 100 and both end sections 102 and end caps 100 are provided with coded slot configurations 146 for receiving the coded protrusions on the surface of the check valve cartridge. The end caps 100 are further provided with molded pins extending from the ends thereof disposed in a symmetrical pattern. These pins may be utilized for supporting the pump in a mounting bracket (not shown).
A control valve and reversing mechanism module 200 to be further described in connection with FIG. 10 is secured to an appropriate portion of the manifold section of the pump by screws 130 adjacent to and just above the shaft 104 on a bracket 201A which is integrally formed with a driving gas manifold. The gas manifold communicates with both discharge chambers and the outputs of the control valve within module 200. A like bracket 201B is provided at the bottom of the pump housing as illustrated in FIG. 8 and faces the opposite direction from bracket 201A. As illustrated in FIG. 9, the control valve and reversing mechanism module 200 is disposed in operative engagement with a washer 106 fixedly secured to pump shaft 104 by retainer rings 108. As will become more fully apparent hereinafter with respect to FIG. 10, the washer 106 performs a similar function to the pin 25 disposed in the pump shaft of the embodiment of FIG. 1.
Referring in detail to FIG. 10, there is illustrated an exploded view of a combined control valve and reversing mechanism module of the present invention for use with the pump of FIGS. 8 and 9. The module housing is generally indicated 200 and includes a top housing portion 202 and a bottom housing portion 204, the bottom housing portion 204 being slidably received within the top housing portion 202 in an assembled condition by means of slots 214 which receive tongue portions 215 extending upwardly from the bottom housing portion 204. On the underside of housing portion 202, there is provided a slot 210 which extends transversely across the entire top portion 202 and the side walls 212 thereof define bearing surfaces on which the edges of a yoke or actuating member to be described hereinafter may slide parallel to the pump shaft 104. The top of housing portion 202 is molded with chambers therein for receiving the control valve of the present invention which is similar in operation and construction to the control valves 40 illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5 described hereinbefore. That is, the cylindrical chamber 206 is molded in housing portion 202 for receiving a plurality of interconnected bushing elements and dividing O-rings 230 which define the different sections of the control valve body bore. The bushings include a central inlet bushing 228 which would be juxtaposed within inlet ports such as 45 of the valve of FIGS. 4 and 5 and outlet bushings 226 which would be juxtaposed with the outlet paths 46 and 47 of the valve of FIGS. 4 and 5. These bushings would include peripheral apertures in alignment with respective channels 45, 46 and 47 to permit the flow of fluid therethrough. Disposed for reciprocal sliding movement within the bushings 226 and 228 is a spool member 220 with spaced O-rings 222 thereon of a similar construction to the spool 42 illustrated in the valve of FIG. 4 and 5. This spool 220 is retained within the cylindrical chamber 206 and the respective bushings described hereinbefore by a screw-type retainer 224 which is screwed into one end of the chamber 206 in housing portion 202. Both retainer 224 and the opposite end of cylindrical chamber 206 are provided with keyholetype ports 218 having enlarged wing portions 219 which permit the escape of exhaust gas during the reciprocal action of the valve. The wing portions 219 provide for better exhaust venting of the gas from the valve and assist in a self-cleaning action of the spool 220. The top housing portion 202 is further provided with an upstanding flange, including apertures 216 therein for receiving screws 130 which attach the entire module 200 to the pump assembly in communication with a suitable manifold structure 141 which supplies driving gas to either one of the pump discharge chambers on the inboard side of the diaphragms to thereby drive the pump in a reciprocating action, as described in detail hereinbefore. The supply of driving gas to the module 200 of FIG. 10 is through inlet port 208 in the top housing portion 202. This inlet port 208 may be fitted with an adaptor 132, retainer hook 138 and O-ring 134 secured thereto by a screw 136 of a similar construction to the adaptors described in connection with FIG. 8 hereinbefore. The provision of these adaptors enables the pump and control valve unit of FIG. 10 to be connected to flexible hoses or tubes.
The module 200 has a reciprocating yoke or actuating member therein between the top and bottom sections 202 and 204. Yoke member 240 slides in slot 210 in top section 202 on bearing surfaces provided by walls 212 thereof. Yoke or actuating member 240 is stamped from sheet metal and is configured with upstanding arms 242 at the opposite end thereof with anvil portions 241 stamped therein for engaging the opposite ends of spool valve element 220 as it reciprocates with the action of the pump shaft. In this regard, a pair of spaced arms 246 extend downwardly from the yoke 240 for engaging the washer 106 on the pump shaft 104, as illustrated in FIG. 9. Yoke 240 is also provided with a downwardly extending pin 244 which fits into apertures 258 in the end of pins 240 of a snap-acting spring mechanism to be described hereinafter. The bottom housing portion 204 is provided with slots 264 to permit the reciprocal movement of arms 246.
The opposed compression spring snap-acting reversing mechanism utilized in the module 200 of FIG. 10 includes a pair of tubular spring support sockets 248 having bores 250 therein for receiving both coil compression springs 252 and support pins 254 therefor. The springs 252 may be inserted within bores 250 and the pins 254 then inserted within the springs to provide a quick and easy assembly method of this snap-acting mechanism. Extending from the top and bottom of members 248 are pivot pins 249 which are received in aligned apertures 262 in the bottom portion 204 and the top portion 202. Thus, the socket members 248 are sandwiched between the top and bottom housing portions of the module 200 and are pivotally mounted in the apertures 262 in the respective top and bottom portions of the housing. The apertures 262 in the top housing portion 202 are not illustrated, but they are directly aligned within the slot 210 above apertures 262, illustrated in the bottom housing portion 204. The support pins 254 of this embodiment of the present invention also have a unique end bearing structure, including circular end members 256 and arcuate engaging bearing flanges 260. When assembled together, these two end bearing structures, including circular members 256 and arcuate bearing flanges 260, nest one within the other, and the respective circular end members bear against the opposed arcuate bearing flange members 260 of the opposing support spring mechanism. This structure is particularly unique and significant for increasing the life of this spring-acting mechanism and also more compact in size. That is, because of this increased bearing area and nesting arrangement, the bearings have a long life. In addition, this bearing arrangement is particularly efficient and unlikely to bind or stick as the coil springs move over center in the snap-acting fashion described hereinbefore with respect to FIGS. 2 and 3.
All of the parts of the module 200 of FIG. 10 are fabricated from plastic with the exception of yoke member 240, springs 252, spool 220 and bushings 226, 228. Of course, it is also preferable that the screws, such as 266 which hold the two housing portions together, be fabricated from metal. Of course, all parts may be plastic if desired. The operation of the control valve in reversing mechanism module 200 of FIG. 10 should be readily apparent from the description of the alternate embodiments of the present invention described in conjunction with FIGS. 1 to 7. That is, the reciprocation of the spool 220 within the control valve bore 206 causes driving gas to be alternately provided to the discharge chambers of the pump on the inboard side of the diaphragms, depending upon the position of the spool. This movement of one or the other of the diaphragms creates the pumping action and simultaneously reciprocates the pump shaft, causing the shaft and the ring or bushing 150 thereon to engage one of the downwardly extending arms 246 of the yoke member 240. This, in turn, causes the yoke member 240 to reciprocate, and the pin 244 extending downwardly therefrom to apertures 258 in the ends of spring support pins 254 causes pins 254 to rotate about pins 249 of retaining sockets 248. When pins 254 and coil springs 252 thereon move over center (past a line perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of yoke 240), coil springs 252 cause the springs to snap and accelerate the yoke. The arm 252 on the trailing end then bangs against the associated end of spool 220, causing the valve to switch to its opposite bistable position. As in the spring configuration of FIGS. 2 and 3, the symmetrical opposed springs in a common plane precludes the occurrence of transverse forces on the bearing surfaces 212. Thus, yoke 240 will not stick in an intermediate position of the extreme positions of travel. The bearing structure 256, 260 on the ends of pins 254 further decreases any possibility of sticking or binding of the reversing mechanism. Referring in detail to FIGS. 11 and 12, there is illustrated the novel coded valve cartridge of the present invention in conjunction with the inlet and outlet ports in which it is contained. FIG. 11A shows a side elevational view of the valve cartridge of the present invention, including at its front end or the right end, as viewed in FIG. 11A, a pair of diametrically-opposed protrusions 123F, and at the rear or left end, as viewed in FIG. 11A, three spaced protrusions 123R. It should be understood that the third protrusion 123R in FIG. 11A is not illustrated in the side view. However, the third protrusion is illustrated in FIG. 11C, to be described hereinafter. In this regard, FIGS. 11B and 11C are diagrammatic illustrations of only the protrusion configurations of the respective right and left sides of the cartridge illustrated in FIG. 11A. That is, FIG. 11B illustrates two diametrically-opposed protrusions 123F and FIG. 11C illustrates three spaced protrusions 123R.
FIG. 12 illustrates an end section 102 of the pump of FIGS. 8 and 9 of the present invention and inlet and outlet ports 142 and 144, respectively. Inlet port 142 includes three spaced grooves 146R for receiving only the three-spaced protrusions 123R of the configuration of FIG. 11C. Therefore, only the rear or left end of the valve cartridge of FIG. 11A can be inserted into inlet port 142. This assures that the check valve within the valve cartridge of FIG. 11A cannot be inserted backwards within the inlet port 142. In a like manner, the diametrically-opposed pair of grooves 146F in outlet port 144 will only receive the protrusion configuration of FIG. 11B which has two diametrically-opposed protrusions 123F. Therefore, only the front or right end of the valve cartridge of FIG. 11A may be inserted into the outlet port 144 in the end section 102 of the pump of the present invention.
Thus, it can be clearly seen that a single valve cartridge having the protrusion coding configuration of FIG. 11A may be utilized for insertion into any one of the four inlet and outlet ports 142, 144 of the pump of the present invention; and it is impossible to insert the cartridges improperly.
In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the end caps 100 of the pump of FIGS. 8 and 9 also have coded groove configurations for receiving the end of the valve cartridge of FIG. 11A, which is not contained within the inlet and outlet ports 142, 144 of FIG. 12. That is, if the cartridge of FIG. 11 is inserted in the inlet port of FIG. 142, the three spaced protrusions 123R are contained within that port while the diametrically-opposed protrusions 123F at the opposite end of the cartridge extend from the port 142. Therefore, a chamber 147 in end cap 100 of the pump would have a diametrically-opposed pair of slots therein for receiving the pair of diametrically-opposed protrusions 123F. In a similar manner, with the pair of diametrically-opposed protrusions 123F inserted in outlet port 144 and slot 146F, the three spaced protrusions 123R of the cartridge would extend out of outlet port 144. Thus, a chamber 149 in end cap 100 of the pump in FIG. 8 would require the presence of three spaced slots to receive the protrusions 123R therein. In this manner, a double coding of the parts is achieved, so that it is impossible to insert the valve cartridges backwards into the inlet and outlet ports 142 and 144, and it is also impossible to assemble the end caps 100 to the end section 102 without having the check valve cartridges properly inserted within the inlet and outlet ports 142, 144.
The invention being thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.

While it is certainly advisable to use the most simple form for your tax needs if you want a quick return, it is not always the best idea when you have a complex tax situation. The IRS has 1040 tax forms in three primary categories for your income tax filing needs, ranging from simple to comprehensive. The simplest in Form 1040EZ, for those with slightly more complexity in their tax situation there is Form 1040A (known as the short form) which works for most US taxpayers and finally, there is Form 1040 (known as the long form). If you are looking to file a comprehensive return in which you can get all the deductions, tax credits and adjustments to income that you are legally entitled to, this is the form you will want to use. The benefit of Form 1040 is that you that you will be able to detail far more of your tax situation to a level that the other forms do not allow you to do. If you earn income in excess of $100,000 in a single year then you must use this form because none of the others are designed to handle this much income. Those with earnings from a farm, partnership, business, trust or S corporation will need to use this form, as well, because it allows you to report all these types of income. The beauty of this particular form is that you will be able to itemize your deduction in extensive detail, the perfect solution for those who may earn a great deal of money, but also have many expenses that need to be taken into account so that the amount of income they are taxed on is more fair to their actual situation. By properly itemizing your deductions, you will find that you can keep yourself in a more reasonable tax bracket. Because proper itemization is difficult to do on one's own, it is definitely advisable to seek out a qualified tax preparation specialist to make sure that you are claiming all of the deductions, adjustments to income and tax credits that you are eligible for and none that you will be denied. The Internal Revenue Service can be selective about what they will allow, so having a professional on your side greatly reduces the risk that your return will be rejected. Being able to claim medical or dental expenses, cash contributions to charitable groups, job related travel expenses and other more detailed deductions can put you in much better shape at tax time. While it may take longer to fill out, Form 1040 certainly gives you more accuracy representing your financial situation to the IRS and as a result, you can expect to be taxed more fairly.

Lehle Little Lehle II
From Lehle:
The Little Lehle II - the universal Lehle switching and looping tool.
The Little Lehle II removes effect pedals from the signal path at the press of its button. A signal can be picked off at any point in the signal chain, to switch to an instrument tuner, for example.
The Little Lehle II can also be used to switch between two instruments on one amp or, vice versa, between two amps with one instrument. Extremely diverse sound sources are possible - signals from pick-ups, microphones and keyboard line-out sockets are routed loss-free to the target amplifier or recorders, and all jack sockets are stereo. Switches with gold-plated contacts assure True Bypass. As on this unit's "big brother", the Lehle D.Loop SGoS, not only the stereo signal, but also the signal ground, is switched - so it's goodbye to hum when switching between two amps, and selecting effect loops - it just can't happen any more!
The easy-action mushroom-shaped button characteristic of Lehle products is mounted in the cover, so that your foot pressure is transmitted indirectly, via only a spring, to the slide switch with its gold-plated contacts. The electronics board is thus not exposed to mechanical loads, making the Little Lehle II virtually indestructible and guaranteeing years of trouble-free switching.

- Hrithik Roshan might work with the Yah Raj Productions again. According to speculations Hirithik's next venture will be a Shaad Ali film produced by the Yash Raj Productions. Rumours are that the makers of the film have met with the actor but nothing has been finalised yet. The actor had a great year with Agneepath becoming a huge hit and ZNMD ending up with numerous awards.
- Sudhir Mishra will be casting a well known face in his next film. The film which will be produced by Anubhav Sinha will have 10 to 12 characters. It will be the first time Sudhir will be casting a star. Sudhir also wants to cast Amitabh Bachchan and Vidya Balan in another film.
- Vidhu Vinod Chopra says that there is no point in making rubbish films that end up in the 100 crore club. He adds that he is not happy about Sanjay Leela Bhansali producing Rowdy Rathode. Vidhu says that he will talk to Sanjay about this. He hopes that he never finds himself in a similar position.
- John Abraham is known to be an amiable personality. Shockingly he threw a huge tantrum in the office of a big media house recently. Apparently the reason was that the media house could not arrange for sushi when he asked for it. John was pissed off and started misbehaving with everyone .
- Salman Khan will be hosting the the sixth season of Bigg Boss. Last year the actor could not give enough time to the show due to a busy schedule. The sixth season will also see the show return to Lonavala which is its original location. Salman's continuous presence in the show will mean a tremendous rise in the TRPs for them.
- After cricket and football Shahrukh is venturing into the education business. The star is collaborating with Kidzania which is a global education brand. The chief executive of Kidzania said that they are planning to open three centres in India . The three centres will be built in Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. About 300 crore will be invested in the joint venture.

Thank god you found this forum before you made such a serious mistake! listen to what every person here has been saying... Ive had more town inspectors and insurance company's call me requesting assistance, guidelines and setbacks for my fathers stoves, etc. then I can possibly count. It is true that most of the experienced members here are FAR FAR more qualified then most (not to say inspectors are wrong or bad... they do the best they can to protect us regarding a wide variety of things that I would not have clue about)... but in terms of stoves, coal and the flue/chimney's to run them you will not find better qualified folks then here.
the day I line a viable terra cotta flu with stainless is the day you can all put me in the old folks home so they can heat my azz with oil

Boasting amazing panoramic sea views across the adjoining open countryside and to the spectacular mountain range of Snowdonia beyond, Tyddyn Mawr is an extended detached stone built farmhouse situated alone on the edge of the scattered rural village of LLaneilian, part of a designated area of outstanding natural beauty, on the delightful North East coast of Anglesey. Positioned within easy walking distance of the popular coastal path and only a short drive to the family friendly golden sands of LLigwy beach, it is the perfect holiday home for both families with children and active walkers/sightseers alike. Consisting of 3 spacious bedrooms (1 en suite with shower cubicle ) and family bathroom including shower cubicle upstairs, two good sized lounges, downstairs toilet, an extensive fully fitted kitchen with eating areas and adjoining conservatory furnished with large dining table and chairs, the property is practically and comfortably furnished throughout, easily accommodating 7/8 guests.
The conservatory door opens onto an enclosed (if required) patio, ideal for barbecuing.

With the sun shining on the garden all day long, the less energetic, may prefer to sit and relax in the tranquility of it all, watching and listening to the abundance of bird and wildlife this idyllic setting gives home to. Anglesey has numerous award winning beaches and attractions, all of which are only a short drive away. The coastal path stretches 125 miles around the Isle giving opportunity to walk along cliff top paths and explore deserted coves, Porth Y Gwichiaid (Periwinkle bay) is a small shale cove only a couple of miles from Tydyyn Mawr . There are many places close by to enjoy cycling, boating and fishing (fishing trips go from Amwlch port just over 3 miles away) and with ample room on the drive for a boat and up to 4 cars, Tydyyn Mawr is an ideal place to stay when planning on participating in one or all!

There is a private area with its own entrance and parking to the rear of the garages where the owners have a static caravan which they sometimes use but this does not effect the privacy of the house and is not used as a holiday let.
Tyddyn Mawr is a lovely farm house that is positioned in its own lawned gardens with no neighbours and has amazing uninterrupted views across the countryside to the sea , coastline of anglesey , the great orme, puffin island and the snowdonia mountain range.
All the rooms have sea views
The views and privacy were the reasons we adored and purchased this property, and until we retire here, it will be available for others to enjoy.
An enjoyable week overlooking the Menai Straight with great views. The house has most things you would want and the owners have been very thoughtful in leaving a lot of games, DVDs and books for you to enjoy if raining. Walking down to the coast line from the house can be problematic as the public footpaths are not obvious and the farmers have not made it easy. It would be nice to know a little more of the history of the house. We saw plenty of pheasants and one red squirrel within an hour of arriving! The house is pretty secluded down a long single track road with only an OAP home a hundred yards up the street and a couple of farms down the track other than the owners lodgings above the garage and the static behind the double garage. I found the process of renting very easy and very good communication... recommended.
A lovely cottage in a very quiet location.
The garden was massive not at all justified by the pictures on the website. There is a smaller one with the trampoline in. There are bird nut hangers and shrubs so you get a large variety of birds visiting. My only suggestion is to take some nuts with you to encourage the red squirrels to visit. The rest of the garden is huge great for the kids and dogs to run round in and secure. There is a gate to the front that only a very small dog (I'm talking tea cup size dog) would be able to get out of. We took our two cats and only the smaller one who is tiny was able to climb through the gaps. There is a gate to the field at the side of the garden but this leads only in to the field which there are cows in. There is a small sitting area with a table for 6 which looks out on to the garden and fields through to the sea. We saw hares in the field next to the house and were fortunate enough to see a red squirrel. We also had larger game birds visiting daily. Whilst here we found that there were usually only around 4 or 5 cars travelling on the road to the front of the house throughout each full day. To the front of the property is the garage and games room with air hockey and table tennis which was great.
The owners have expanded the property and have a annex to the house. They however are not always there and work and live in Manchester. We only met Richard due to circumstances (who was lovely) and did not feel at all that we were being overlooked. The property is to the rear of the cottage and does not impose on your privacy at all.
The bedrooms all had plenty of storage space draws / hangers etc. The beds were very comfortable and huge.
The kitchen was well equipped with all you need. There was plenty of fridge / freezer room. Also there was plenty of room to entertain 8 people with ease.
The living rooms. There are two. One posh one and one universal one. We only went in to the posh one to get DVDs and have a look. It was lovely. We found however with 6 of us that we had plenty of room in just the one that allows pets. The two large sofa's were comfortable and the kids loved the playstation and x box with a large variety of games.
In all we had a lovely quiet week and will definitely go back. It was so quiet with lovely walks from the doorstep. Great for kids and adults alike. My advice take some nuts to see the red squirrels. We will next time.
Lovely property with incredible veiws from all windows.
We had the most beautiful walks along the Anglesey Coastal Path and discovered that the island is unspoilt and very quiet.The visiting red squirrel entertained us daily and the birds feeding were a joy especially the busy pair of Nuthatches.. We have stayed in many lovely cottages and this is an absolute gem. We would love to return. I want to perfect my trampolining skills! Thankyou Caroline and Richard for sharing your lovely property.
Sue and Barrie Ainsley
We had a lovely five day break here, it's in a good location with great views. It's a great family home with plenty to do we took our dog who also enjoyed it.
Very well equipped house in a fabulously beautiful and tranquil location.
Great for beaches, wild life, and for touring Anglesey and North Wales.
A wonderful house in an idyllic location makes for a perfect holiday.
Add sunshine, amazing views, the resident pheasants and a red squirrel who likes to play on the trampoline your holiday then becomes priceless.
Tyddan Mawr is very much a home from home with everything and more that you need for a very relaxing and peaceful holiday. We will most definately return. Thank you Catherine and Richard.
The area is popular with families for the local sandy beaches, walkers for the coastal path.
There are plenty of cycle routes, and is popular for bird watching. Numerous public slipways to launch private water craft.
Fishing. Hiking. Ancient ruins and local history .
Family pub (The Pilot Boat at Dulas) with children's fun bus and play area just a few minutes drive away.

President Clinton posted a video to his YouTube page on Tuesday, describing the Clinton Foundation's efforts in Haiti, and how money has been allocated thus far.
He says donations received have been put to good use -- three million dollars have already been spent on a wide array of items: 20 tons of medical supplies, 90 trucks, 9,000 solar flashlights, 34,000 tents, 2,000 latrines, over 1,000 stoves and over 100,000 pieces of clothing.
Clinton also described his recent visit to Haiti with President George W. Bush. He reiterated his belief that small businesses are the key to growing the Haitian economy, and talked about his meetings with Haitian government officials.

Stroud is a middle sized market town that holds a lot of history. It was at Neather Lypiatt manor right at the top of Stroud where the gun powder plot was planed. This building rests out of view at the side of the Bisley road, one of the main routs out of Stroud. This house, now owed by the prince and princess Michael of Kent, once belonged to the Whittington family from Gloucester, remember the puss and boots children's story? The real Richard Whittington once lived there before moving to London. The cricket player Jack Russell was born in Stroud and has lived around the area ever since. If you go to the top of the High street there is a charity shop which occupies a medieval building. The building was thought to be later than this, but during a demolition of a factory building in the late 80's a medieval glass window was found. The window is still in its original place facing the pedestrian crossing. Part of Stroud's history is its two canals. From the river Severn up to Stroud there's the Stroudwater canal, and from Stroud to the Themes it's the Themes and Severn canal. If you go from the town center, go under the railway bridge and stand on the bridge next to the Bell Inn, one side of the bridge is the Themes and Severn, and the other side is the Stroudwater canal. The town today is in a state of 'refurbishment', after going down the drain lately. A lot of businesses left during the '90's, leaving the town in a bit of a mess with lots of boarded up shop windows. Of late though, things are turning around. Stroud is known mostly for its health shops and alternative medicine. If you want to eat GM free locally grow fruit and veg, whether its bought from an organic shop or eaten in an organic café, you'll find it in Stroud. Each year Stroud puts on the Stroud show, a popular event including stalls, a carnival by local groups, music and loads
more. The event is held during the summer at Stratford Park, a picturesque protected park which has its own mini railway! There's a new museum in Stratford park, in a new specially built unit adjoining the manor house which gives the park the name. Next door is the Stratford Park Leisure Center, with indoor and outdoor swimming pool, gym, indoor and outdoor tennis and basket ball courts. In the past few months King's Street has had a new surface laid to make it more pedestrian friendly. Most of the towns streets have been pedestrianized in a bid to bring back the people who would sooner get a bus to Gloucester. At the bottom of the High street there's Bank gardens, an ideal place to go and eat your fish and chips from the chip shop at the bottom of the High street. If you follow the paths which lead towards St. Lawrence's church which overlooks the gardens you will come to the front of the church, and facing away from the entrance to the church, looking over to your right you can see the burial place of the last man to die in Britain from a duel. Part of Stroud's 'refurbishment' is the plan to build a cinema where the bus station currently is. This idea is far from new, there have been plans for a cinema in Stroud ever since the last one closed down some 30 years ago. One piece of real-estate many people would like to get their hands on is Rodborough Fort. Its looked down over Stroud and the Severn estuary for many years now. In fact, go to either Rodborough or Selsley common and you can enjoy a brilliant views over the river Severn, on a clear day you can easily see right over to the Black mountains. Another landmark is the Hill Paul building on cheepside, next to the railway station. The former mill has been derelict for years, in fact it was due to be torn down months ago, but local people have embarked on a plan to raise the £1.6 million necessary to buy t
he building. Raising the funds to buy the building is one thing, raising the necessary cash to make the building safe could be quite another. The most controversial landmark in the Stroud area is the wind turbine at Nympsfield. Personally I like the way it stands majestically overlooking the landscape, but locals have hated the whole idea since day one. They've complained about the noise (what noise? You can hardly hear anything stood next to it, let alone two miles away!), the interference it caused to their TV signals, how many kettles of water it could boil and so on. For directions just ask anyone for the wind turbine, they'll know what you mean! If your in Stroud and want to visit the police station, just look for the big white ugly breeze block which stands out like s saw thumb. Its just up the road from the medieval window mentioned above. All in all, Stroud is not the sort of place you would want to go out of your way to visit, unless you would enjoy the history of the place. But there's nothing really bad about it. If your in the area, I would pay a visit to the wind turbine at Nympsfield, between Stroud, and Nailsworth to the south. One advantage of living in Stroud is that if your ill and need to see a doctor, you could always pay a visit to Dr Mark Porter! For the Stroud tourist information center call 01453 765 768 Stroud district council 01453 766 321 Stroud town council 01453 762 817 For more opinions on Stroud visit www.openroads.com/easy_search.php3?&worldzone=BI&country=ENG&mode=easy&geoid=c 10000779&srch_reg_type=geo_text I know it's a long address!

As a police officer, do you ever want to just wring somebody's neck-not because they misunderstand you, but because they do understand you?
As a police officer, do you ever want to just wring somebody's neck-not because they misunderstand you, but because they do understand you?
let me elaborate with an example, my argument being I am not required to have insurance and forum handle b says I am required to have insurance. I feel I have won the argument then get in a wreck without insurance and am held liable for thousands in hospital bills and repairs, as a result of being a real smart rider.
I wonder how many other states work that way ?
(Just an idle thought, not necessarily expecting an answer.)
In your line of work I guess maybe it is not surprising how many people can't answer a simple "yes or no" question but it kind of amazes me.
The really sad part is that my spouse often falls into that category.
Don't believe everything that you think.
I asked, several times, if liability insurance was required by state law and you STILL have not given a straight yes or no answer........but someone else did.
So........maybe a valid answser to the question in the original thread is: Move to a state that doesn't require insurance.
Don't believe everything that you think.
I think this has gone a little off topic, how can I save money on motorcycle insurance?
Most of all I wouldn't worry about the rates so much, just like riding a bicycle, swerve the potholes and obey traffic laws my first traffic ticket ever was 108 miles per hour I am surprised I can buy insurance.
Motorcycle insurance requirements by state | Insure.com
recent msft completion is a discount.,
some places offer student discounts, low mileage discounts. multivehicle discounts.
but the important thing is the bike. a brand new m50 is far cheaper to insure than a 10 yr old gsxr.
msft? low mileage, I could go for that.
oh, ok I thought low mileage meant on the vehicle all together.
I really wish people would pay attention to the keep right except to pass state law signs, maybe I was tailgating but there is no need to ride right next to a semi for 5 minutes due to some economy car in the left lane.
ok, I upgraded to 5k bodily injury insurance. priceless in comparison to injury with no insurance. I do think a motorcycle safety course would be ideal for young riders(or new riders in general). I had drivers education before I got my drivers license in 2003 i got my endorsement in 2011. I am sure a few years with a regular drivers license would not be careless. I can't put enough emphasis on knowledge experience and wisdom to prevent incidents to keep the insurance company happy. My experience with my permit was exiting, I bent the rules once and rode at night in a group with riders with years experience.
I just bought my first bike yesterday, and was thinking about getting a policy with fire and theft added. Trying to understand exactly what each type of insurance policy covers, so I guess the best way to ask is: what would this policy NOT help me out with? Say there's a crash and I get injured, the other driver gets injured, both vehicles are damaged, we both want to claim it's the others fault, etc. Worst case scenario, what am I missing out on if I don't get full coverage? Thank you...looks like I entered a heated discussion here but just wanted to take it back to the basics, lol.One step up from this is third party, fire and theft

Spotted over the weekend: Beautiful and delicious organic lacinato kale at one of Dr. Graf's favorite markets, viagra generic case North Shore Farms in Port Washington, buy cialis sickness Long Island.
Lacinato kale, or dinosaur kale, has a longer and narrower leaf with a softer texture than regular curly kale. Combined with its sweeter taste, lacinato kale is great to use for salds, smoothies, soups and stews. It's also frequently used in Tuscan cuisin!
So why is it called dinosaur kale? It's simple! The surface of the leaf is bumpy, resembling the skin of a dinosaur!

someone can file of the sear pin (?) head of an AR15 and make it a machine gun,,,,
well let me clue you MR O,,,, there are a lot of people (machinist) who COULD build
a complete machine gun from metal,,,,,, but that WAS NOT the bet,,,,, you said
someone could legally buy a machine gun "without any reporting requirements at all".
This was a stupid bet,,,, the word legally is what trapped you,,,,, you CAN NOT BUY
ONE LEGALLY. You can do anything ILLEGALLY.
