of all the wonder products sold today i have yet to see a can full of insulators.. cut it out or cover it up but you cant stop it.. we just finished a 55 in the shop that was blasted at home. totally destroyed. without skimming the entire car with bondo there is no way to repair it. the owner just opted to paint it and live with it. looks like it sat thru many west texas hail storms from all angles.
You said you were interested by my statement about blasting and rust coming back. These parts were blasted in a wheelabrator which uses steel shot (which are extremely small round steel balls) As far as something being round, the reason why something may appear to be smoother is that the round spheres actually create small dishes in the material WHICH reflects light easier and MAY APPEAR and FEEL to be smoother, but in reality can have a signifiganlty coarser micro-finish. The only true way to measure surface finish is with a device such as a profolimeter. You can take steel grit or chilled iron for example, and create a finer finish than say with spheres. The difference is the way they cut and the surface finish profile they leave, but not necessarily how well they remove material or how quickly they can cut. I do this kind of work for a living and have been doing so for the last 20 plus years. The reason the rust probabaly returned so quickly in these areas is that they were pitted to start with, and the media did not completely clean the area even though it appeared that way by eye. Then in turn by not being sealed, they started to rust prior to the other parts. One of the ways that many industrial rust inhibitors work is that they CLEAN the metal, not necessarily coat the surface. Most are very astringent cleaners. I pose this question to you. I just recently stripped my 49 Chevy. It had seven layers of paint with one of the top coatings being PPG DP90 Epoxy (the old good stuff). In many areas where the paint and sealer looked good, the underlying metal had surface rust, not the kind that is rough or pitted, but still visible. It probably was more from something prior to being painted, but could it be that all coatings absorb moisture to some extent. I know that the best epoxy marine coating tech sheets say that they absorb up to .02% in a 30 day period, not much, but permeable none the less. If this is the case, then I would suspect it to be true of most coatings to some extent. I am not sure if this is the cause for some rust, but I would not bet that your Chev does not have some rust under that paint. Maybe not visible, but still there I would bet.
Hey, I got an idea, how about you go strip your Chev down and prove me wrong.Send pics
cut the old metal out put the new in
its not that hard!!
I have been cutting, shaping, welding and finishing metal longer than you have been alive. Yes, sometimes it is that hard.
Well said Ron. I'm getting ready to do my first cut out and reweld job, and I can't be prepared enough. I'm a bit worried abouthow it will turn out but none the less confident.
Like I say all the time, I am no expert.
If sand blasting and chemical coatings will not keep metal from rusting, I guess we are all just SOL. BarryK is a pro and seems to think that sandblasting causing rust is a myth as well. Perhaps I have missed the meat of this thread, but what would you suggest doing when an car body is completely covered in pitting surface rust? My 57 was about 50 % surface rust when I got it. It only had the original paint on the sides of the doors and fenders.....pretty typical and not a cut and replace situation.
There is obviously a need to cut and remove and material where holes are present, but you guys make it sound like you need to cut and remove any place where a rust spot appears. Someone who read this thread could get that impression and it is simply not the case.
I think the their talking about panels with holes rusted through.
This is no doubt the most informed post on here with Brian researching the "at sea coatings" and now Ron brings up 2%
saturation on good grade epoxies. Deep!
The 2% qualifies the product as a waterproof product such as used for bottom paint (underwater) To relate this to your paint on the new car in the driveway (not waterproof) if submerged in saltwater with no air time the paint would start bubbling in 3-9 months. 2% is not enough to cause rust in anyway.
Bottom line on rust, if the metal is CLEAN and sand basting is next best thing to dipping and a waterproof NON solvent holding material is applied, IE; epoxy or zinc as martin said it is impossible for the rust to start as it needs either -solvents, moisture and air.
That is why acids etch have a long term problem as the Vinyl acetate holds air and solvents like a lacquer.
RE: Martins zinc rich primers, the only real use of this in our side of the business is in "weld through primers" in these cans depending on company there may be 75-95% zinc and the rest nothing more than suspension solvents for spraying. So ask some one that uses a lot of this type product and you will finds the spray cans have a high failure rate as zinc settles real fast.
This is why you don't find heavy zinc enriched primers in this side of the business as the second time you went to use that 2K primer the settling would be about unusable. Zinc is also very soft and sands bad.
In automotive the next best thing is Zinc Phosphate and you will find this in some of the better epoxies as its more stable (less settling) and actually bites the metal better than just plain Zinc and will at least be sand-able if needed.

Recently, we picked up a new front clip for my 69 camaro and it was rusted up pretty good. It had been sitting outside for quite awhile. We were going to sandblast it, but no one in town we knew had a sandblaster, or a place that was open the sunday we decided to work on it. we disassembled the front end, a-arms etc... and dipped them in a 5 gallon bucket of muratic acid and let the smaller parts sit for about 10 minutes. The larger part, the frame, we leaned up against the telephone poll outfront and sprayed it down with a pump up sprayer filled with acid. all of our parts looked damn good after that. Looked just like new! After each acid dip or spraydown we rinsed each part off with the hose and dried it with a rag & compressor. We put them in the garage and it had been awhile since the last time we worked on it and they were still rust free, without any coatings. you can use a paintbrush to apply the acid onto an area. Just make sure you wear gloves and if you use the pump up sprayer, get a full body chemical suit, as this stuff is very corrosive! A respirator and safety goggles are a good idea too! the fumes that are released (hydrogen gas) smell awful! and when doing this, no smoking please. Hydrogen gas is highly combustible.
This is off the subject, but i might add that a few weeks later we took the a-arms, springs, etc... and coated them with a rubber undercoater. This was to try and take the attention off some of the pitting by making the surface pretty much the same. a few days ago we put 3 coats of primer on everything, then 2 coats of black high gloss enamel. It still looks damn good! hehe, now we're just waiting for my polygraphite bushings front end kit from pst to come in so we can put everything back together!

Barry, I know the links were not to imply we should use the same techniques on our cars. I was only making the point that POR is not what they make it out to be, If that was the case it would be used on those off shore oil derricks.
How much zinc does the "E" coat have from the factory?
How does the zinc phosphate epoxy hold up against the zinc rich E coat?
Barry, your point on the etch primer soaking up moisture has hit home. I learned from S-W that the etch was basically a lacquer. Your added information (conveniently left out by S-W) that it can retain moisture really hit home with me.
On the rattle cans settling, boy do I know that one. When I was a rep I had to return cases of the stuff with the pick up tubes plugged! Not only that, S-W even made the cans smaller because there was just too juch zinc in the can to be of any use before the darn thing failed.
Not only that, but as far as I can remember there are strict recommendations NOT to paint over the weld thru primer. It was to be used as protection BETWEEN the metal lap and that is it.

I knew that, but was shocked no one asked why not?
So thought would cover it anyway.

I don't know? I would guess if it does its a Phosphate. (just for ease of use with equipment) I will try and find out next week.
How does the zinc phosphate epoxy hold up against the zinc rich E coat?
Last cross hatch salt spray test I saw (on an e-coat) was about 8 years ago and don't remember the company name
and it was good for about 900 hours.
Things change so don't know if thats still the case or they improved- could be GMW would be up on this?
So that would rank with the top 1% of epoxies covering all markets. Around 120-125 companies that make epoxies.
during my time in purgatory [ usn ] i was assigned to airframes for a while. had to go to school to learn how to take care of planes. here is how it was explained to me. the rust you see is the byproduct of corrosion. caused by water/oxygen/electrolysis . rust poop for lack of a better word. rust lives in the metal not on it. i'm not an expert on metallurgy but i've been fighting this stuff for 35 years. you can slow it down, hide it or cut it out but you will not stop it with any wonder product out of a magazine.
now to sandblasting. we had to glass-bead blast the aluminum but were not alloyed to sandblast anything. reason given was sand is coated with salt. compressed air contains moisture. so in the process of sandblasting you would be applying a coat of salt and driving the rust into virgin steel. if your going to sandblast you need to remove some metal afterword's by sanding . ever notice a blasted car will have a little rust come out of folded areas and cracks? as i said i'm no expert but your best bet is to remove it. surface rust will not eat thru your roof but it will always be there. thats the reason your painter wants to use quality products instead of acme paint. :)
Phosphoric acid or the other name magnesium phosphate will flat out eat runs off metal. On surface rust in 10 minutes it will eat it to sliver metal. On thick rust it takes longer and might need more than one application but it will take it to good metal.
How much zinc does the "E" coat have from the factory?
I don't know? I would guess if it does its a Phosphate. (just for ease of use with equipment) I will try and find out next week.
We got edumacated today!
I talk to three different auto manufacturers
two American and one foreign. Here is what I learned (how things change) Because of the panels being galvicoated etc, etc.
The E-coat used by most manufacturers at this point is a
waterborne primer, with a few still using epoxy but no Zinc Phosphates or Zinc. (Cost measures)
Thats why I called three as I know these guys, but not well enough to say I getting a straight answer but the story was the same at each place. In short the black coating is not what it use to be. The world is going to h***!
This just ruined my day.

I may be beating a dead horse but I'll ask anyway. I have read in this post a couple people saying that sandblasting can cause rust. However dont most people use aluminum oxide for stripiing instead of sand nowdays and perhaps "sand" blasting would cause that but "media" blasting should not be a problem should it? I am not an expert this is just a general observation of what i have read so far so if I am wrong please let me Know.
Sand blasting of media blasting will not cause rust, I think that most people get confused here. Clean metal rust right away and I mean within seconds in some areas depending on humidity. So if you sand blast or media blast and clean the metal it will start to form surface rust even before you finish the project. Remember when you buy sheet or bar stock it has a thin film of oil on it, so if you blast to bare metal it will start to rust. That is why body shops have metal prep around, it contains some Phosphoric acid and will eat the rust then you need to get protection on it fast.
Today to many people draw conclusions with no real basis. I had my car painted and the transmission went out so that means painting a car is bad!

Traditional Chinese Medicine is now widely used, not only to treat physical pain and emotional/psychological stress, but also the broad spectrum of ailments commonly treated by Western medicine.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has always placed special emphasis on treatment which improves general energy levels, assists the immune system and enhances the quality of life.
Acupuncture therapy works by stimulating the body's own innate healing ability to restore balance to help prevent disease and improve or maintain health. It involves the insertion of fine, sterile, disposable needles to control the flow of chi (energy) along the intricate network of the body's meridians.
Meridians can be influenced by acupuncture needling, which unblocks the obstruction within the meridian circulation and releases the regular flow of chi, blood, fluid and moisture. Acupuncture is normally applied to body, scalp and ear.
Holistic and integrative medicine consultations are available for men, women, children and elders facing challenges of chronic disease or seeking optimal health. Advanced skills include acupuncture, integrative pain therapy and age-deceleration therapies.
Interventions are natural and focus on Traditional Chinese medicine, massage, nutrition, botanicals, supplements, minerals, and vitamins.
We can work in alliance with your medical doctor when medications are utilized where appropriate and necessary.

ok this question might be totally crazy but here:
i am overly anal and cautious about spring wearing out from anything to buffer springs, shotgun shell tube springs, mag springs, etc. normally when my SR9 is at rest, the firing pin is cocked even though it's unchambered because it cocks the last time I fire it or pulling the slide back after cleaning it will put the pin back in the cocked position.
if I dry fire it (which i do after cleaning to make sure all parts are properly together), it drops the pin and stays dropped. which position is most relaxing for the springs inside? when the pin is dropped, does that mean the firing pin spring is relaxed? does this cause more pressure on the trigger springs because the trigger is then locked back?
i know, i'm crazy

claimed it was just heavy demand, but it was a bad sign for the future of the device. Soon, the dual-core processor became standard equipment on smartphones and quad-core handsets started to be the new cutting edge models.While the T-Mobile G2X had ridden off into the sunset with Android 2.3.4, there was still some hope that an Ice Cream Sandwich update would somehow be released for both the U.S. and overseas variants.
But LG Canada put a kibosh on that way of thinking after responding to a tweet asking if the model was getting the Android 4.0 update. The message from LG Canada, which seemed to reference a previous statement made about an ICS update for the phone, made it clear that there will be no Android 4.0 update for the LG Optimus 2X. We imagine that this will also cover the T-Mobile G2X as well. The phone originally launched with Android 2.2 Froyo and will apparently end life with Android 2.3.4.

How to Tell If Someone is Having a Stroke
Stroke is the third leading cause of death and it is the leading cause of adult disability in the United States. What makes it particularly scary is that it can occur suddenly and in such a way that the person having the stroke may be unaware that there is anything seriously wrong.
Prostate Cancer Screening in Three Steps: 40 – 45 – 50
Age 40: Baseline PSA blood test and digital rectal exam (DRE). If PSA < 1.0 and DRE is unremarkable, no need to re-screen until 45.
Age 45: Men with family history of prostate cancer, or African-American men should have yearly PSA & DRE.
Age 50: All men should have yearly PSA & DRE.
This is prostate cancer screening at its simplest. If nothing else, men should have discussions with their physicians at 40, 45, and 50, and proceed as advised.

When Allergies Take Over – What Can You Do?
Springtime in the Bay Area always brings a typical surge in hay fever. Adults note itchy eyes and noses with congestion. Children get puffy, cough, and rub their eyes and noses (even though many will tell you they feel fine). People of all ages with asthma begin wheezing again, and many people start scheduling an appointment to been seen by a doctor. In the last few weeks, the allergies have seemed particularly severe here in the Bay Area, and I have seen many patients each day with symptoms triggered from their allergies.
Talking to Your Teen about Sensitive Issues
As your teen becomes more independent and increasingly ventures out into the big, wide world, what's the best way to make sure he or she stays safe? There's one simple but invaluable step parents can take – talk regularly with your teen. Research shows that teens who talk to their parents about difficult issues such as alcohol, drugs and other risks, make safer choices. Although talking about sensitive topics with your teen is easier if you started these types of conversations when your child was young, it's never too late to begin the dialog.

Click any word in a definition or example to find the entry for that word
the condition of being a very enthusiastic supporter of the British tennis player Andy Murray, especially when he is playing at the Wimbledon championships
a very enthusiastic supporter of the British tennis player Andy Murray
'Press kick-off Murray-mania ahead of Wimbledon … Andy Murray had barely hung up his racket after his win at Queen's when the press began depicting him as the player who could – finally – win the men's singles for Britain at Wimbledon.'AFP 15th June 2009
'Murray maniacs face hefty £1,250 ticket price as quarter final clash sets sales soaring.'Daily Mail 1st July 2008
On 14th June 2009, British tennis player Andy Murray won the Queen's tennis tournament, the first Briton to do so for 71 years. If the annual outbreak of Murraymania seemed inevitable, like swine flu, it now has the potential to become a 'pandemic'. With each swing of the racket he takes at the Wimbledon championships, the hopes of a nation are pinned on the young man from Glasgow.
the use of the word mania seems to become increasingly appropriate, as the concept of a British winner appears to be an unrealistic, 'crazy' notion
The word Murraymania, referring to the concept of extremely zealous support for Andy Murray, is a seasonal feature of the English language, propagated by the media and 'blooming' prolifically during the Wimbledon championship and in the two weeks or so before it. Tied up in the use of the word is not just support for Andy, but also the aspirational hopes of a nation who haven't seen a British male lift the singles trophy since Fred Perry won the championship in 1936. As the years go by without significant success, the use of the word mania seems to become increasingly appropriate, as the concept of a British winner appears to be an unrealistic, 'crazy' notion.
Or is it? At the risk of sounding like a Murraymaniac (the derivation coined to refer to someone 'suffering' from the condition of Murraymania), the prospects have never looked so good. Murray is only twenty-two, and now ranked number three in the world. He appears to be on good form, unlike one of his main rivals, twenty-three year old reigning champion Rafael Nadal, who is not playing in the championships because of an injury.
Will this be the year? Only time will tell – but time is on Andy's side, and so, along with the words Murraymania and Murraymaniac, in the future there should be plenty of opportunities to re-surface.
The expression Murraymania has made a seasonal appearance for the last two or three years or so, initially sharing the spotlight with its forerunner – Henmania. Likewise referring to extremely zealous support for British tennis player Tim Henman, the term Henmania had an annual outing in English for over a decade, making its first appearance in 1996.
Although Tim Henman did not manage to fulfil public aspirations for a British champion, he was rather more successful in the area of word formation, inspiring tongue-in-cheek expressions such as Timbledon (the Wimbledon championships when Henman is playing) and Tim-O-meter (a kind of measure of Henman's mood and performance). More significantly, he unwittingly renamed Aorangi Park to Henman Hill, a large grassy slope where fans gather to watch matches on a giant television screen. And with Tim's retirement in 2007, came the potential for Murray to be as lexically influential. Just as Henmania has given way to Murraymania, Henman Hill has now become Murray Mound. In the future there'll doubtless be further Andymonium (I should admit that this pun is not my own but is actually already in use. For an example, check out the second article in the Further reading section).

"So far, it has not. People are definitely more aware because of the news, it's more top of mind. But it has its positive; people won't overspend and they'll have more control. It's great to shop locally, but it all depends on what you're looking for."

curb for a monolithic slab
How is the curb for a monolithic slab formed?
Is it all in one pour?
There does need to be a curb since i see it in the neighbors garage and on the village garage sheet.
Thanks for anyhelp.
It can be formed and the forms removed at he correct time to allow the curb to be finished. The concrete has to be set just right so it is stiff enough to hold shape and soft enough to finish.
We typically set & pour the curbs at the same time. We use long steel stakes to control the height and 1x2's as spreaders to control the width. We pull the spreaders first, so that we can do a good job of leveling the top of the curb & so we can edge it. We wait a little longer to pull the stakes, and then fill them with a little concrete each. An inside radius/curb tool will make the finish job a little easier, but to be honest, this can be a fairly complex & laborious job for most DIYer's to attempt, especially if the concrete's setting relatively fast.
On large slabs where the slab itself is level, we've laid solid 4" or 6" half course block in the past as well. You need to install longer anchor bolts in the slab though, and a little lay-out to keep them near the ends of the block is ideal. You'll want to check how much bolt embedment you're required to have by code (here it's 7" minimum) and add in for the height of block (4" in what I referred to) and also enough for the sill plate (typically 2-2.5" here, for a total of at least 14" bolts)............
These steel stakes are in the ground on the outside of the wooden form? (not inside the curb width but the other side). How did you tie the steel stake to the wooden form? can these steel stakes be rebar?
the 1 by 2's are just in there as spacers between the inner form and outerform and not nailed down so you can easilly remove them without messing things up?
the top of the curb is level to earth?
oh my mickymouse.

David A. FRANKS 1951-2013
David Franks died unexpectedly March 29, 2013 of natural causes, one month short of his 62nd birthday.
He was born April 30, 1951, in Seattle, graduated from West Seattle High School, and attended the University of Puget Sound. He had a career with the US Postal Service, where he rose from part-time mail handler to supervisor of the mail processing center at SeaTac Airport.
Dave was close to his large family, and had an extensive circle of friends, many dating to college days. A lifelong bachelor, Dave was a much-loved uncle to two generations of nieces and nephews, with whom he always was generous with time and gifts.
Dave was passionate about all sports, amateur and professional, and had an encyclopedic knowledge of baseball statistics. He was a Seahawks season ticket holder for more than 25 years, a Husky football season ticket holder, and attended many Mariners games. Dave had a strong interest in wine collecting and sampling, and modern jazz recordings. His memory for television and movie details usually made him a winner of trivia challenges.
Survivors include his father, Kermit Franks; his siblings, Marsha Munson, Dean Franks and Candace Murray; seven nieces and nephews; nine great-nieces and nephews.
A celebration of life will be held June 2, 2013, 3 p.m. in the Seahurst Banquet Hall at the Burien Community Center. Memorials may be made to Seabeck Conference Center, 15395 Seabeck Highway NW, Seabeck WA 98380.

American pancakes, bacon and maple syrup is a happy trio, and a loved weekend breakfast. With a dearth of eggs in the Fuss Free kitchen pancakes were off the menu and muffins were on.
For many years muffins were a weekend breakfast staple. We have fallen out of the habit of making them, and I certainly blog them more infrequently; possibly due to having exhausted many of the flavour possibilities. They are well worth revisiting, you can measure out the ingredients the night before, quickly mix and pop into the oven to bake whist you shower, fetch the papers, go back to bed for a snooze or make the coffee.
I nearly always bake my muffins in a silicon pan, with a smear of oil or quick spritz of cake release spray. The more you use it they more non stick it will become, the trick with silicon bakeware is to stand it on an upturned old wire cooling tray which supports it and makes getting it in and out of the oven far easier. You can use those very attractive tulip muffins wraps but at around 20p each in the supermarkets they are stupidly expensive.
My maple syrup was from Clarks, they have a range of 4 syrups (No1, No2, vanilla and original) as well as a selection of honeys. I was astonished to read that it takes 4000g of maple sap to make 100g of maple syrup. Remember that once opened you need to keep it in the fridge, it can go mouldy and maple syrup is a relatively expensive product that you do not want to waste.
- 90 g or small packet pancetta or finely chopped thick cut bacon
- 1 tbs maple syrup
- 175 g / 6oz plain flour I used half regular and half spelt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- pinch salt
- 115 g / 4oz milk soy or dairy
- 30 g / 1oz maple syrup
- 30 g / 1oz mild tasting vegetable oil I usually use sunflower
Fry the pancetta in a little oil over a medium heat until crisp and starting to brown. Discard the fat from the pan and spread the pancetta out on a sheet of kitchen paper to absorb the rest of the fat. Return the pancetta to the pan, add the tbs of maple syrup and cook for a few minutes until the syrup has thickened and coated the pancetta.
Whisk the oil and milk mixture with a fork. Add 3/4 of the maple syrup pancetta to the dry ingredients and mix well. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and fold together (the batter should be lumpy and mixing should take no more than 15 folds). Dollop the mixture into your usual muffin pan and sprinkle each muffin with a the rest of the pancetta. Bake at GM5/190C/375F for 20 – 25 mins until risen.
Serve warm with extra maple syrup.
Sending this to this month's breakfast club hosted by Tales of Pigling Bland.
And to Tea Time Treats, hosted this month by Kate with a theme of muffins.
Many thanks to Clarks for my maple syrup samples.

City to discuss funding vets cemetery tonight
City councilors will hold a special meeting today to discuss funding water and electrical work to get a veterans cemetery off the ground at South Park Cemetery.
The meeting, to be held at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall, is open to the public.
Councilors will decide whether or not to pay for the initial maintenance costs on a small section of a donated site next to the cemetery.
The city's Finance Committee will meet at 8 a.m. Wednesday to vote on the proposal first. If approved, it will move forward to councilors tonight.
Veterans Cemetery Board president Ron McKay said planning for the cemetery has gone well. The cemetery committee is also hoping to start getting information from [auth] residents about veterans who have died and need burials.
In July, Gov. Susana Martinez announced that a newly created State Veterans Cemetery Initiative would identify four sites throughout the state to place new rural cemeteries.
Roswell leaders hope the city is chosen as one of the locations. The local group has decided to move forward with its established plans, in hopes of later recouping costs through the federal program.
"This is an excellent preliminary step towards that end, to have Chaves County for one of the veterans cemeteries chosen by the state," said Mayor Del Jurney.
As of 5 p.m. Monday, city staff did not have available any details of the special City Council meeting, other than a public notice that read: "Veterans Cemetery—Funding Improvements."
The Finance Committee also did not have a prepared information packet.
No information was available about how much the city proposes to pay for the maintenance improvements at the cemetery. City staff was also unaware of the details of the meeting, according to Assistant City Manager Stacye Hunter.
"All we're required to do is put out a notice of the agenda," Hunter said. "I have not been privy as to the details. The mayor will run the meeting."
Jurney said the city is being asked to provide maintenance for the property next to South Park Cemetery once it becomes a veterans cemetery. If the city approves the funds today, it would allow the group to start burying veterans at the site by the first of the year.
The money would fund the installation of a water line to a cul du sac on the property.
"What the Finance Committee is going to be asked to do is offset some of those maintenance costs," Jurney said.
Those costs would allow the cemetery to get up and running in a timely manner, Jurney said.
The state's plan could take up to two years. If Roswell becomes an approved location, the city could be reimbursed.
Anyone who wants more information about burying veterans at the site can call McKay at Ink Plus Inc. at 575-627-8069.

IL and STX are proud to bring you a full line up of brand new content specifically designed for women. Lax Her Essentials is a new feature focused on delivering you content for the player and by the player, covering everything from skill-buildinng, lifestyle products, players' mindset and more.
The Florida women's lacrosse program hasn't been around that long — in fact, this is their third season. Florida is known nationally for its success in athletics and in this week's Lax Her Essential, players from the Gators' squad let us in on why they chose to go to Florida.
"I was looking at a bunch of schools this summer after deciding to transfer from U. of Richmond. Florida was unlike any other school I was considering. The amount of support we get as student athletes is unreal. I ultimately chose Florida because of all it offers: an amazing coaching staff, great players and friends, top notch facilities, a well established academic and athletic reputation, and not to mention, the weather isn't too bad! Laying by the pool is late January definitely has its perks! This program is unlike any other team I have been a part of. As teammates, we genuinely care about one another and will go to great lengths to support each other. Sometimes a DI sport can feel like a job and become methodical, but at Florida it isn't like that. Practice is fun and keeps us engaged and aware of why we continue to play the sport that we love."
— Gabi Wiegand
"Once I stepped onto Florida's campus there was no going back. I knew at that moment that I was going to be a Florida Gator and I couldn't have been happier. The athletes are treated like nothing I could have ever imagined. I fell in love with the coaching staff and the team. The thought of helping establish a new program is amazing and a great opportunity. When I was looking at schools I had one thing in mind and that was to win a national championship. You can't go wrong with getting a great education and winning a national championship."
— Shannon Gilroy
"I chose Florida because of their great academic and athletic tradition, and of course, the weather. I love how the program and teammates are like a family since most of us have been together for the last three years. Without the support of the whole team and staff our program wouldn't be what it is. We are grateful for everyone that helps us including our trainer, strength coach, managers, video guy, etc."

Although the 2010 gubernatorial election is a year away, four democratic candidates have already announced their intention to run. We begin our series of candidate interviews with Lamoille senator, and chair of Senate Appropriations, Susan Bartlett. We talk about her solutions to some of the most pressing problems facing the state.

This Sunday, the 89-year old artist will make a rare public appearance at the Cornish Colony Museum in Windsor to sign a new book highlighting his work. VPR's Nina Keck talks with Tooker in his home in Hartland.
And, we listen back to some of the voices in this week's news.

|Phase I-II Study of HER2 Vaccination with poly(I) • poly(C12U) (Ampligen®) as an Adjuvant in Optimally Treated Breast Cancer Patients
|Study Contact
|Stephanie Parker | 866.932.8588 | E-Mail
Despite improved tumor response rates and overall survival with current therapies, many breast cancer (BC) patients eventually have disease relapse suggesting the presence of residual microscopic disease. Cancer vaccines given with adjuvants can induce tumor-specific Th1 immunity and result in immunologic eradication of residual tumor cells and potentially prevent disease relapse or tumor spread. This randomized two-stage study in BC patients will evaluate if Ampligen®, a TLR-3 agonist, given with HER2 vaccination improves vaccine-induced HER2+ immunity.

About 60
Flavorless oil for the baking sheet
1-1/4 cups (9 ounces) granulated sugar
1/4 cup (2 ounces) water
1-2/3 cups (9 Ounces) whole blanched almonds,
at room temperature
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
Lightly oil a baking sheet with a flavorless oil.
Mix the sugar and water in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan. Use an unlined copper sugar-pot if you have one. Cook the syrup over medium heat, stirring once or twice, until the sugar dissolves. Put a candy thermometer in the pan. Wash any sugar crystals from the sides of the pan with a brush dipped in cold water. Continue to cook, without stirring, until the thermometer reaches 248 degrees F.
Remove the thermometer, and turn off the heat. Add the almonds. Stir until the sugar syrup clumps and turns opaque. Over low heat, continue stirring until the sugar remelts and coats the nuts with a caramel-colored syrup. This will take about 20 minutes. If the nuts start to smoke, remove the pan from the heat for a minute, turn down the heat, and continue to cook.
When the sugar has melted again, carefully pour the almonds in the syrup onto the oiled baking sheet. Be careful—the almonds will be very hot.
When the candy is cool, break it apart. Store it in an airtight container (not in the refrigerator) until you are ready to make the chocolate balls.
Melt the chocolate in a bowl over simmering water.
Use a food processor to grind the candy into a powder.
Mix the candy powder and the warm chocolate together.
Drop the mixture by teaspoonfuls onto a baking sheet covered with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate the candies until firm, but bring to room temperature before serving.

This volume contains research that originally appeared in The Railroad and Engineering Journal between 1891 and 1893. In it, the distinguished French-born aviation pioneer Octave Chanute analyzed virtually every flight experiment up to that time, explained their flaws and focused attention on the principles that showed most promise. His data on flight control and equilibrium was crucial to the early designs of the Wright Brothers.

text: Youre a lord, sent into the wild to explore and left-click any bad guys in your backyard. While youre adventuring forth, your village grows. Acquired items secure different types of citizens, so recruiting new townsfolk will be your main goal. The idea stemmed from the devs earlier experiments in a medieval city-builder. You dont get bards unless you can find a magical instrument, explains Mat Williams, senior producer. You need ancient tomes to bring a wizard in. You can get a necromancer, but youve got to find a crypt. Once settled, your lord can issue orders, setting the smith to construct swords or the priest to pray for healing - no more buying items off the populace youre protecting. And if you decide the village can survive without a certain citizen, ask them to join your party and head off into the wilderness.

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
You need to take her to a vet so they can do an exam and confirm what is going on. It could be an inner ear infection which messes up you balance and can cause a head tilt and inability to walk in a straight line. If that's what it is the vet should be able to treat her with antibiotics. If it's not that they will check for neurological (nervous system) issues and any hidden injuries. These are serious but more unlikely. Make sure to take her to a vet ASAP as if an inner ear infection is left untreated it can cause permanent damage and balance issues. It shouldn't be too expensive as you'll just need a vet exam plus antibiotics but if money is tight you can ask your vet about paying in installments or getting Care Credit.

If you want to plot an implicit function then the command to use is ContourPlot.
If you want to combine two contours you can do this with Show[plot1,plot2].
When you do it you probably want to turn off contour shading so that one plot
does not hide the other.

ContourShading -> False, Contours -> {0}]

In[9]:= ContourPlot[ x^2 y^2-1, {x, -2,2},{y,-2,2},
ContourShading -> False, Contours -> {0}]

In[10]:= Show[%, %%]

Consider running a line of arrangements down the length of the table. If you don't have enough vases, cake tins, jelly molds, and small ice buckets make unexpectedly charming containers.

I'm referring more to pop hip-hip. The same 'not looking hard enough' argument really applies to anyone who says any style of music is dead. There's plenty of tight polka around too just as there's some killer jazz rock around (*cough* my band *cough*) if you look hard enough. The stuff which is getting the most exposure, though, I don't find terribly inspired.

Just finished reading a Nelson DeMille book entitled "Wild Fire" in which the good guys eventually got the upper hand by using something called a "bear banger" (can be shot from a relatively small pen-type pistol). Any experiences/comments on these? Possible defensive use? Availability? Cost? Internet access?

quick google search resulted in a whole page of results. this was the first one.
Two problems with bear bangers:
They can start forest fires
Inexperianced users can shoot them over a bear causing the bear to run towards you, not pleasent guess how I know this.......
If you can't carry a gun, then bearspray and bangers make a good combo. use the bangers to scare off a curious bear and keep the spray for an attack.
I'd just get the bear bangers mixed up with my epi pen. Would the bear bangers keep my throat from closing shut?
Wait, all these are all old pen flares, I've got like 10 of these sitting in a hole at home. They were standard army issue quite a few years ago.
"The 280z, is more like a skittish, half broken bronco, that requires constant attention, challenges your driving ability and will literally ride the driver hard and put him away wet."
Reminds me of an old blank pistol I purchased at a gun show many years ago. It had a threaded insert for holding little extras (smoke, flare, and big-bangers). Basically it relied on the blank to launch and activate the effect.
"The firing-pin strikes a .22 calibre blank round in the base of the cartridge, which propels the "banger" roughly 30 metres (35 yards), at which point it explodes.
The bangers compare in loudness to the report of a firecracker shell fired from a 12-gauge shotgun"
I guess the plan is to hope that the bear dies of a heart-attack?
__________________________________________________ ____
You Can Also Find Me On Personal Defense Forum Dot Com
I have used them successfully on bears, often a bear will check you out before deciding whether to make contact or not. the .22cal blank propels the banger about a 100' or so before it goes off. Most times this startles the bear and causes it to take off. However in some parts of my province a "bang" to the grizzlys means a gut pile and free lunch and will attract them. I have thought about putting a banger on my shotgun as a non-lethal deterrent, but will likely go with rubber slugs.
You could always tip toe up behind the bear and set off an M80

The biggest issue with bangers and bearspray I have found is air travel, I need to use commerical air travel to get around and they won't let me carry these items, they will however let me carry a shotgun and ammo.

Is there really any difference between an EMachine and the other computer brand names, such as Dell, HP or Compaq?
This is the perfect question for anyone who is thinking about buying a new computer in the near future. If you are, you're probably in the middle of weighing pros and cons between the different big name computer brands. You're probably busy trying to seeing what all you can get from each company that is most worth your money. (You know, a "how big of a bang for your buck" type of thing!)
As you all know, there's so much to consider when buying a new computer (whether it be for yourself, for your child to use in college or even for your grandchildren to play games on), it's important to look into every aspect and get what will work best for you.
Now, back to the original question. To be honest, I can really only answer that question with "it's your own opinion." EMachines work just like any other computer and to some people, they probably work better than a Dell or an HP brand machine. But, on the other hand, there's probably several people out there who would say a Dell works much better than anything. Some of you may even prefer a Gateway or to build your own computer. Any way you go, you just have to choose what will meet all of your needs at the moment and you just have to go with your gut feeling.
Some testimonials that I found said that EMachines come with a better price and they work just fine, while others said they've experienced several technical problems with them. And of course, I found some that said Dell computers work fantastic, but their customer service isn't the greatest. So, as you can see, it's really all in your own opinion. An HP or a Compaq may be just what you're looking for at the price you want, but an EMachine could do the same things for you too, so it really just depends on your preferences.
Of course, when you're looking for a computer, some things you want to look for is the amount of memory it holds, the processing speed, the type of graphics card it uses, if it has a wireless card or not (if you're interested in that), if it has a CD burner or not, the warranties included with it, etc. So, all in all, either way you go and whichever computer you buy, you should end up with everything you've always wanted!

Legal Professional: Build Your Business
If an employee is on approved FMLA, does the employer have the right to "harrass" the employee for taking off?
I am on intermittent FMLA for severe anemia, which causes me to become very exhausted. I have already discussed with my Superior and the VP of HR that my worst days are Friday and Monday....and also "that time of the month" (apologize in advance if that offends any readers). Well, "that time" happened on Good Friday --which was a regular work day. I called out of work on that day, citing FMLA. I also took an FMLA day on Monday because I still was feeling exhausted. Note: I have had my FMLA since January and have only taken approximately 4 1/2 FMLA days, so clearly I am not an abuser. And, I have never taken off two days in a row, or a Friday/Monday combination.
Today my boss called me into her office to say that she was taken aback that I took an FMLA day on Friday and Monday, with Easter being on Sunday. I reminded her that I previously informed her on more than one occasion that Fridays and Mondays are my most difficult days. She repsonded that she understood about Friday because it was the end of the week, but didn't understand why I was also so tired on Monday. Seriously, how am I to answer that? I don't really know myself why I'm exhausted on Mondays also. She continued on for a while about how astounded she was that I took off on Good Friday and the Monday after Easter.
I should also mention that there was an incident with the CEO several weeks ago when I left work early on FMLA. I informed the Senior VP that I was leaving early due to FMLA (my boss and the VP of HR were not in). She insisted that I let the CEO know I was leaving (I do not report to him, and to my knowledge, no one else has ever been asked to do this). Right before I left, my doctor returned my call on my cell phone. I went into the employee kitchen to take the call (which is permitted). The CEO came into the kitchen while I was on the phone, stood there awhle while I was speaking to my doctor and then finally said, "either your staying or your going" and walked out.
In any case, I feel that I am being harrassed and would like to know if there is anything I can do?
Suggestion from a layman / old HR corpie --keep good records and try to be professional and down play it.
I don't see any winning odds to force a confrontation as to your rights . Just be sure of the rules and keep to the offical rules to seek and use FMLA.
There are simply all to many alpha types who think that one must be present 24/7 in order to be a good employee -and equate an absence with disloyalty or inability.
Now to some extent the harsh reality is that an employee who cannot keep up or may run into more expensive medical problems become a liability to the firm and I've seem folks pushed out the door basically to prevent them from being a problem later on---no other polite way to say it.--don't give mangement any room to question your work ability.
Sadly I've worked with a few women who did exploit that time of the month so as to avoid work and what was isolated abuse soon rubbed off on any female and the performance of that department head because a standing joke . You may need to discretely re educate your boss that your is not just a regular monthly issue .
One of my lawyer friends is convinced that older female bosses who paid dues to the system under older harsher times are much more harsh on younger females that are males of similar age and skills --I simply don't know but both my daughters will tell me they will pick a male boss any day over a female boss.
Part of being successful is tuning into what makes your boss tick----
Respectfully, although it must be frustrating to deal with the inquiries when it appears you are not abusing the leave, I don't believe what you described has risen to the level of harassment -- especially not in any legal sense.
Perhaps one of the things you could do to try and prevent a Friday/Monday combo is to evaluate what you do on weekends. I work very hard during the week (and often do a lot of company work on weekends too from home) and also "play" very hard on weekends and do all my weekly chores. Sometimes I kid after a weekend or a vacation that it's good to come back to work to "rest up." Maybe you could look at whether you are trying to pack in a lot of household chores or other activities on Sundays and see what you could move to Saturday so that you are able to get plenty of rest on Sundays. Maybe you could consult with your doctor and see if there is anything additional regimines you could do when you are especially weak.
As for the CEO incident, when you saw him standing there while you were on the phone, I might have just politely said, "I'm on the phone with my doc. Can I get back to you as soon as we're done?".
"In any case, I feel that I am being harrassed and would like to know if there is anything I can do?"
I don't believe it is harassment. Let me give you a different perspective.
"I informed the Senior VP that I was leaving early due to FMLA ...Right before I left, my doctor returned my call on my cell phone."
You informed them you needed to leave early due to being ill and then the CEO sees you in the break room talking on your cell phone. He/she has no way of knowing you are talking to your physician. For all they know you are making weekend plans. Generally when an employee is leaving sick they just leave they aren't in the break room or anywhere else on a personal call. And yes, even if you are talking to your doctor it is a personal call.
When you have to leave on FMLA just leave. DO NOT delay and do anything that gives the appearance that your departure is anything other than above board.
"Today my boss called me into her office to say that she was taken aback that I took an FMLA day on Friday and Monday, with Easter being on Sunday."
The problem is your timing is that you needed the time last minute around one of the seven holidays that employers recognize. It seems suspicious that you ONLY need FMLA on Fridays and Mondays thus leading to three or four day weekends. The employers I have worked for have all had a policy that if you call out sick before or after a recognized holiday you are not paid for the holiday in order to keep employees from abusing the time off and having mass "sick outs" in order to get more time off.
I think the issue is that you are stating your illness ONLY flares on Friday or Monday leading to long weekends. Even though you haven't abused it, the timing of the absences is what is getting attention not your illness or that you use FMLA.
I would suggest that if your physician is not finding a cause or a way to treat this that it may be time to consult a hematologist and get to the root of it. I would also be looking at the timing of absences and consider that perspective when your employer reacts the way they do.
"That's just my opinion, then again I might be wrong." Dennis Miller
ClydesMom:The employers I have worked for have all had a policy that if you call out sick before or after a recognized holiday you are not paid for the holiday in order to keep employees from abusing the time off and having mass "sick outs" in order to get more time off.
Right on. I've seen this become more common in the last couple of years. In the last few years, folks who requested extended holiday weekends in advance (and were approved - can't grant to everyone so have to decide a way to be fair) have not been penalized. However, someone who calls out the day after a paid holiday and weren't previously approved were not paid for the holiday (and it was made policy so there was no confusion or headaches around folks claiming unfair treatment). Of course, in your field (medical), it's even more critical to have an adequate workforce available. While in my field, excessive call-outs can hurt production, on-time delivery, and profitability, it's even more crucial in yours.
Agreed. I find it suspicious also. With intermittent FMLA, your employer has the right to require your doctor to recertify your need for FMLA no more frequently than every 30 days.
It is incredibly suspicious thatyour medical condition gets worse on days that give you a 3 or 4 day weekend. Can you provide medical documentation to back that up?
Thank you all for responding and providing good suggestions and insight.
Lynn M. - I'll try to be more specific about my condition: I have severe anemia. I am always exhausted, in addition it causes me to have irregular heart beats, dizziness and shortness of breath. I struggle with this every day of the week. By the time Friday rolls around, I pretty much have given all that I've got (my doctors have said to me on several occasions that they are surprised I have the strength to get out of bed every morning). So it doesn't just flare up on Friday, but rather it comes to a crescendo on Friday. I have plenty of medical documentation to back me up on my condition and continued treatment. I have tried intravenous iron therapy, but had an allergic reaction. I am currently taking high does of iron in pill form, but it takes a while for ones body to replenish. Once I am more stable medically, I will have a uterine ablation, as after extensive testing, it was narrowed down to the anemia being caused by heavy menstrual bleeding.
A poster mentioned perhaps doing too much on the weekend causes me to be tired on Monday. I wish I had the energy to do too much on the weekend! LOL That's not the case. It's just the nature of the condition that I'm dealing with right now. And for the poster who mentioned seeing a hematologist. Thank you for that wise suggestion...I am currently under the care of 3 specialists, including a hematologist.
BTW, I checked with HR yesterday and I have taken a total of 3 1/3 days of FMLA since January. Out of that time, I was "harassed" 2 1/3 of those days. I think that is absurd to do that to an employee. More specifically, it is legal? Especially since I have not given the company any reason to think that I am abusing my leave (how can they when I've only taken 3 1/3 days in three months time?!)
Look, I'm sorry but what you have described simply does not reach the level of illegal harassment. Any employer would be suspicious when someone on intermittent FMLA only uses it in Fridays and Mondays. Regardless of how many times you've used it, the fact that they've only been used on days that will give you a long weekend is a legitimate cause of concern. I'm not saying that your use of these days is not legitimate, but at the same time I cannot see that your employer is violating any laws by checking under the circumstances.

Published August 2nd, 2011

The Alabama Head Coach Nick Saban has had quite the influence on new Gator Head Coach Will Muschamp throughout his career. The two worked together at Louisiana State University claiming a national title and then reuniting once again with the Miami Dolphins.
Muschamp has learned about a total program from Saban and is ready to bring his knowledge and experience to the Gator Nation.
After TV20 met up with Saban at the SEC Media Days, he said Muschamp has learned well and that the new rivalry will not effect their relationship.

FRESHWORKS! Festival Debuts in Birmingham
The people behind the inagural FRESHWORKS! Festival are out to prove that farm-to-table food is always in season. This Saturday (June 16), farmers, chefs, and food trucks will converge at The Gardens at Park Place for an afternoon of education, entertainment, and of course, great Southern cooking.
Expect a veritable bounty of food trucks including Birmingham favorites such as Dreamcakes, Shindigs, and Spoonfed Grill. We're looking forward to trying the tasty options from faraway favorites such as Athens' Farm 255 Cart, Nashville's Biscuit Love, and Scott's Bar-B-Que all the way from South Carolina. The man who literally just wrote the book on food trucks, John T. Edge, will be on hand to sign copies of his new book The Truck Food Cookbook: 150 Recipes and Ramblings from America's Best Restaurants on Wheels.
Stephen Stryjewski and Ryan Prewitt from Cochon and Herbsaint in New Orleans will be there to host cooking demos and serve up the Louisiana staple, boudin. Birmingham's Martie Duncan, who is on the current season of Food Network Star, will also be flexing her chef skills showcasing fresh blueberry dishes.
When you've had your fill of food, you can check out musical performance by The Dexateens, Jonny Corndawg and Brendan Benson of The Raconteurs; visit the petting zoo; shop from eco-friendly vendors; and see installations showcasing backyard farming techniques. "Our goal is to connect the festival attendees with chefs, farmers, and producers who are committed to producing and working with the best possible ingredients in a way that's both accessible and sustainable," says Nick Pihakis, event organizer and owner of Jim 'N Nick's Bar-B-Q. "We want to tell the stories of those people and places. It's about being local and fresh while educating people about where their food comes from."
The festival's dedication to farming and cultivation aligns with the strong sense of community of Jones Valley Teaching Farm. All proceeds from the event will benefit the organization, which has been grooming young locovores since 2007. Their hands-on K-8 programs at the two-acre, urban garden in downtown Birmingham give kids a chance to see where their food comes from and encourage better nutrition.

GotchaThe trans in the WRX was originally purpose designed for a FWD 90hp car. It's been beefed up a bit through the years, but the main problem is that with AWD spinning the tires to waste extra stress on the driveline is less of an option. So instead the pressure finds the weakest point and breaks it. In the 5-speed, it's the teeth on the gears which shred and go boom.
Driven correctly, and in stock form, the trans is fine. However, if you are at stock levels and banging on the gears (not rev matching at all, or just dumping the clutch between gears regardless of engine rpm as compared to velocity and gear choice) it will break. There are people with +300awhp on the stock trans and no issues. There are people who break them stock. It's all about how you drive it.
I was very nice to mine, but on July 14th I was racing a friend and shifted into 2nd gear very aggressively - it went boom. Two weeks and $4600 later($3600 for parts, the rest for labor), I have a 6-speed from an STI in my car.

The Italian government said on Thursday that it is willing to work with Africa's most populous nation to tackle security challenges posed by the nation's radical Boko Haram sect.
Italian special envoy on humanitarian emergencies, Margherita Boniver, currently visiting Nigeria, commended the collaboration between Nigerian and Italian security forces "on a number of specific issues, including terrorism, human trafficking, to roll back poverty, to enhance inter-religious dialogue and the full observation of human rights."
Boniver vowed that the Italian government will continue to support Nigeria in its war against the Boko Haram sect, known to carry out brutal attacks in the northern part of the country.
Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu, who received the envoy, further added that the FG would be looking to the African Union for assistance as well.
He expressed his regrets at the murder of Italian citizen, Franco Lamolinaro who was kidnapped alongside Briton Chris McManus in Sokoto. Both foreigners had been shot dead only hours before a failed rescue attempt by a combination of British and Nigerian forces earlier this year.
He assured the delegates that the Nigerian government is already taking steps to dealing with the problem of terrorism.

webMathematica - comments, opinions, user group (?)
I'm interested in what people know on the "scoop" for comments and opinions
on webMathematica. Also, does anyone know if there is a user group?
The basis of my question is as follows. I have been using the product for
about 6 months now, and I'm getting a lot of high mileage out of and give it
a 5-star rating. Nevertheless, it's based on Mathematica V5.2 (i.e., the
webMathematica product from Wolfram does not support a higher version), and
the "new" webMathematica that should support higher versions now seems
several years delayed.
Do I make the correct inference that webMathematica did not turn out to have
as wide an appeal as Wolfram had hoped for and that it is almost in the
category of discontinued product?
Or on the flip side is there a vibrant community out there that I can join?
Google hits seem to turn up only the Wolfram site, again leading to my
inference that the product did not turn out in the "success" category for
Wolfram. Does anyone know why?
Any more comments, opinions, or knowledge on the history and context of
