The oldest, most distant supermassive black hole ever seen has been discovered by scientists
Scientists have found the oldest supermassive black hole ever recorded. Josh King has the story (@abridgetoland). Buzz60
The most distant and oldest supermassive black hole ever seen has been discovered, astronomers announced in a study published this week .
The black hole resides in a quasar and its light reaches us from when the universe was only 5% of its current age — over 13 billion years ago, or "just" 690 million years after the Big Bang.
Quasars are among the brightest and most-distant known celestial objects and are crucial to understanding the early universe, said study co-author Bram Venemans of the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Germany.
The discovery of a massive black hole so early in the universe may provide key clues on conditions at that time, which allowed for huge black holes to form.
It's a truly gargantuan black hole, some 800 million times the mass of our sun. The size amazed and puzzled astronomers.
"This black hole grew far larger than we expected in only 690 million years after the Big Bang, which challenges our theories about how black holes form," said study co-author Daniel Stern of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Study lead author Eduardo Bañados of the Carnegie Institution for Science said that "gathering all this mass in fewer than 690 million years is an enormous challenge for theories of supermassive black hole growth."
This is very unlike the black holes that form in the present-day universe, which rarely exceed a few dozen solar masses.
Another study author, Robert Simcoe of MIT, said "this is the only object we have observed from this era. It has an extremely high mass, and yet the universe is so young that this thing shouldn't exist. The universe was just not old enough to make a black hole that big. It's very puzzling."
The unexpected discovery was based on data gathered from observatories around the world. It's part of a long-term search for the earliest quasars, which will continue. Even older examples could be discovered, scientists said.
The discovery was found by scouring the new generation of wide-area, sensitive surveys astronomers are conducting using NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer in orbit and ground-based telescopes in Chile and Hawaii, Stern said.
"This is a very exciting discovery," he said. "With several next-generation, even-more-sensitive facilities currently being built, we can expect many exciting discoveries in the very early universe in the coming years."
The study was published in the British journal Nature.

There is more involved to a pump than simply starting the motor and pumping liquid. Here we have outlined some of the science behind pumping, how to read a pump curve and how to select a pump for your jobsite.
Rain for Rent offers bypass training workshops in many areas of North America. We bring our jobsite experience and pumping expertise and will train you and your employees about bypasses and centrifugal pumps.
Most workshops include:
It is this simple - this is the major part of pump theory. Understand it, and net positive suction head (NPSH) is easy.
Pumps don't suck.
In fact, nothing sucks. Can you name something that does ? Centrifugal Pump Theory also explain the workings of several things in our world:
Centrifugal pump curves show 'pressure' as head, which is the equivalent height of water with S.G. = 1. This makes allowance for specific gravity variations in the pressure to head conversion to cater for higher power requirements. Positive Displacement pumps use pressure (ie; psi or kPa) and then multiply power requirements by the S.G.
Static Head
The vertical height difference from surface of water source to center line of impeller is termed as static suction head or suction lift ('suction lift' can also mean total suction head). The vertical height difference from center line of impeller to discharge point is termed as discharge static head. The vertical height difference from surface of water source to discharge point is termed as total static head.
Total Head / Total Dynamic Head
Total height difference (total static head) plus friction losses & 'demand' pressure from nozzles etc. ie: Total Suction Head plus Total Discharge Head = Total Dynamic Head.
Net positive suction head - related to how much suction lift a pump can achieve by creating a partial vacuum. Atmospheric pressure then pushes liquid into pump. A method of calculating if the pump will work or not.
Specific gravity. weight of liquid in comparison to water at approx 20 deg c (SG = 1).
Specific Speed
A number which is the function of pump flow, head, efficiency etc. Not used in day to day pump selection, but very useful as pumps with similar specific speed will have similar shaped curves, similar efficiency / NPSH / solids handling characteristics.
Vapor Pressure
If the vapor pressure of a liquid is greater than the surrounding air pressure, the liquid will boil.
A measure of a liquid's resistance to flow. ie: how thick it is. The viscosity determines the type of pump used, the speed it can run at, and with gear pumps, the internal clearances required.
Friction Loss
The amount of pressure / head required to 'force' liquid through pipe and fittings.
Back to the top
Centrifugal pump performance is represented by multiple curves indicating either:
The curve consists of a line starting at "shut head"(zero flow on bottom scale / maximum head on left scale). The line continues to the right, with head reducing and flow increasing until the "end of curve" is reached, (this is often outside the recommended operating range of the pump).
Flow and head are linked, one can not be changed without varying the other. The relationship between them is locked until wear or blockages change the pump characteristics.
The pump can not develop pressure unless the system creates back pressure (ie: Static (vertical height), and /or friction loss). Therefore the performance of a pump can not be estimated without knowing full details of the system in which it will be operating.
The above pump curve sample image shows:
Read the Pump Curve
All types of pumps have operational limitations. This is a consideration with any pump whether it is positive displacement or centrifugal. The single volute centrifugal pump ( the most common pump used worldwide) has additional limitations in operating range which, if not considered, can drastically reduce the service life of pump components.
Best Efficiency Point is not only the operating point of highest efficiency but also the point where velocity and therefore pressure is equal around the impeller and volute. As the operating point moves away from the Best Efficiency Point, the velocity changes, which changes the pressure acting on one side of the impeller. This uneven pressure on the impeller results in radial thrust which deflects the shaft causing:
The resulting damage can include shortened bearing / seal life or a damaged shaft . The radial load is greatest at shut head.
Outside the recommended operating range damage to pump is also sustained due to excess velocity and turbulence. The resulting vortexes can create cavitation damage capable of destroying the pump casing, back plate, and impeller in a short period of operation.
When selecting or specifying a pump, it is important not to add safety margins or base selection on inaccurate information. The actual system curve may cross the pump curve outside the recommended operating range. In extreme cases the operating point may not allow sufficient cooling of pump, with serious ramifications!
The best practice is to confirm the actual operating point of the pump during operation (using flow measurement and/or a pressure gaug ) to allow adjustment (throttling of discharge or fitting of bypass line) to ensure correct operation and long service life.
To ensure the correct pump is selected for your application the following details are required. If you can not supply some of the information, just ask for help from Rain for Rent, we can assist in identifying your requirements.
Details required for all pumping applications:
Additional details required if liquid is not water
Data to consider for all pumping applications:
Find details of duty. In the above example: Water, 2m suction lift, 15m static discharge (17m total static head), 360 meters of 150mm schedule 40 steel pipe.
Draw a chart with flow on bottom scale and head on left scale. Estimate scale required based on size of existing pump, or guess maximum flow expected - example shows max flow as 100 L/S and max head as75m - sometimes you just have to guess to get started.
Mark static head. 17m at zero flow. Note: 'Demand' pressure, ie: sprinklers etc, should be added at each flow point, or for approximate figures can be added to static head.
Mark 2 or 3 other points. At 20L/S friction loss is 0.73 m / 100m of pipe, therefore 0.73 x 3.6 + 17 = 19.6 meters. Put mark at junction of 20 L/S and 19.6 m. Repeat for other points. Remember to add static head each time.
Join these points with a line.
You have completed the System Curve. The Curve may have to be extended to suit higher flow pumps.
The pump operating point is where a pump curve crosses the system curve. Draw as many pump curves over the system curve as you like, to see where different pumps will operate, or draw system curve over pump curve.
If pump curve does not cross system curve, the pump is not suitable.
If the pump curve crosses the system curve twice, then the pump will be unstable and is not suitable.
When operating pumps in parallel or in a series, there are more complex issues to consider.
Series applications: consider the pressure rating of pump, shaft seal, pipework and fittings. Placement is critical to ensure both pumps are operating within their recommended range and will have a constant supply of water. Drawing a curve for 2 or more pumps is simple, draw 1st pump curve then draw 2nd curve, adding the head each pump produces at the same flow. More curves can be added in the same way.
Parallel applications: confirm suitability of pumps by drawing a system curve (often 2 pumps will only deliver slightly more than one pump due to excessive friction loss. Also you can confirm that pump operation will be within its recommended range.). Non return valves are required especially if one pump operates alone at times.Dissimilar pumps or pumps placed at different heights requires special investigation. Drawing a curve for 2 or more pumps is simple, draw 1st pump curve then draw 2nd curve, adding the flows each pump delivers at the same head. More curves can be added in the same way.
There are two main causes to cavitation.
Is NPSH a dirty word? There is enough fear of it to suggest it is. But why?
Because some people will not accept that pumps don't suck.
If you accept that a pump creates a partial vacuum and atmospheric pressure forces water into the suction of the pump, then you will find NPSH a simple concept.
NPSH(a) is the Net Positive Suction Head Available, which is calculated as follows:
NPSH(a)= p + s - v - f
NPSH(r) is the Net Positive Suction Head Required by the pump, which is read from the pump performance curve. Think of NPSH(r) as friction loss caused by the entry to the pump suction.
NPSH(a) must exceed NPSH(r) to allow pump operation without cavitation. It is advisable to allow approximately 1 metre difference for most installations. The other important fact to remember is that water will boil at much less than 100 deg C if the pressure acting on it is less than it's vapor pressure, ie water at 95 deg C is just hot water at sea level, but at 1500m above sea level it is boiling water and vapor.
The vapor pressure of water at 95 deg C is 84.53 kPa, there was enough atmospheric pressure at sea level to contain the vapor, but once the atmospheric pressure dropped at the higher elevation, the vapor was able to escape. This is why vapour pressure is always considered in NPSH calculations when temperatures exceed 30 to 40 deg C.
If the speed or impeller diameter of a pump change, we can calculate the resulting performance change using affinity laws.
These laws apply to operating points at the same efficiency.
Variations in impeller diameter greater than 10% are hard to predict due to the change in relationship between the impeller and the casing.
I know you are thinking "what does this have to do with anything"?, but if you can understand these 'laws' then you can make rough estimates without having to find full information, which might not be available anyway.
it might go something like this:
Boss: "Hey Joe, put this new pulley on that pump"
Joe: "But that will speed the pump up by about 10 % which increases the power by a third, do you reckon the motor will handle it ?"
For rough calculations you can adjust a duty point or performance curve to suit a different speed. NPSH (r) is affected by speed / impeller diameter change = DANGER!
Only one thing is a better troubleshooting tool than pressure & vacuum gauges...that is: readings from pressure & vacuum gauges taken prior to the problem. ie: monitoring gauge readings will help diagnose pump and system problems quickly, by reducing the possible causes.
Flow measurement would allow full diagnosis of pump performance but is sometimes expensive and usually not possible (Cheap versions include: V notch weir, measuring discharge from horizontal pipe, & timing of filling / emptying). System curves can be used in evaluating results.
Here is a troubleshooting table for typical pump symptoms and possible causes.

The Miami Dolphins locked up strongside linebacker Koa Misi with a four-year extension Friday night, NFL Media insider Ian Rapoport reported, according to a person involved in the contract.
Misi was entering the final year of his rookie contract. Fox Sports first reported the news, and the Dolphins later officially announced Misi's extension.
The 26-year old is a two-down player who was a top-10 4-3 outside linebacker last season, according to Pro Football Focus. However, Misi does struggle in coverage.
The Dolphins made some splashy signings on both sides of the ball this offseason. Locking up Misi will keep a solid group of linebackers together. While the offense will get most of the attention this season, it might be the defense (specifically the front seven) that carries the Dolphins.
UPDATE: Citing a person informed of the deal, Rapoport reported that Misi's extension is for $17 million over four years, with $9 million guaranteed, possibly the largest deal for a two-down linebacker.

One of the many legal proceedings Google is involved in is drawing to an end. The company announced on Tuesday that it has been granted preliminary approval for a settlement in its Buzz lawsuit, potentially awarding $8.5 million to funds dedicated to promoting Internet privacy. But don't go thinking Google is admitting any fault in this. Instead, the industry leader reaffirms its commitment to better educating its users about Buzz's privacy options.
Buzz was launched last year as Gmail's social media feature. The networking tool's debut was met with mild confusion to outright rage, as Buzz users were quick to file a complaint with the FTC against the application shortly after its introduction. It seemed Buzz's big downfall was assuming that a user's most often e-mailed contacts could be considered "friends," and thus, privy to any information shared on it. The lack of clarification on Google's part didn't help matters, despite its attempts at quickly mollifying the issue.
But the company is ready to put the misunderstanding behind it with the multimillion dollar proposal and promise of further instructions for its users – which has an air of condescension to it, sort of like, "I'm sorry you weren't smart enough to figure this out on your own. I'll help you next time."
In a rare message to its Gmail users, Google wrote, "The settlement acknowledges that we quickly changed the service to address users' concerns…We will also do more to educate people about privacy controls specific to Buzz. The more people know about privacy online, the better their online experience will be."
The e-mail also notes, "Just to be clear, this is not a settlement in which people who use Gmail can file to receive compensation." So ends one of Google's many legal sagas – almost. The settlement waits for final approval in January.

Deacon Steve Swope entered the diaconate for the Archdiocese of Atlanta in 2008. Having always had a propensity for service, Deacon Swope found it a natural step to move toward discernment on, and finally the decision for, the diaconate. He already had been deeply involved in his parish as a volunteer training altar servers, being a St. Vincent de Paul caseworker, working on the stewardship team, heading the finance council, sitting on the parish council, lectoring and sponsoring in the RCIA program.
"While that may seem like a lot, I was only doing a few of them at any given time," he said. "What it did was establish a regular pattern of service to others that was enjoyable, fulfilling and, I believe, helpful to our parish."
On top of that, Deacon Swope was running his own company. In spite of that, his pastor recommended he apply for the permanent diaconate program, and he did even though he doubted he would be accepted. When he was accepted, he resolved to accept this as God's will.
Aside from the privilege of conferring sacraments and visibly observing the action of the Holy Spirit in his life as he ministers to others, Deacon Swope finds his greatest joy in service.
"When we each live out our baptismal promise to participate in Christ's ministry as priest, prophet and king, we live as a people of prayer, teaching and service," he said. "Being closer to the laity as a deacon enables me to see how they are living out their own vocations. For me, that is a source of real joy."
While there are many joys, there are also many struggles, Deacon Swope admitted. The greatest challenge comes in living a dual vocation — marriage and the diaconate. In addition, deacons live in the "real world" of secular life as breadwinners of their families. Unlike priests and religious, deacons are not sustained financially by church contributions; they must support themselves and their families. They have to create a delicate balance between marriage, ministry and work.
"There's no way to do it in which everybody will be happy," he said. "My first year as a deacon, I did a poor job of it."
The difficulty came as Holy Week approached, which required a great deal of time liturgically because of special services and practices. Also during that week, his family was having a major reunion, and he needed to be there for their sake.
As if that weren't enough, that same week Deacon Swope was to be the keynote speaker at a large professional conference. There was no way he would be able to fulfill all those obligations. He was able to talk his business partner into taking over the keynote for him, but that still left the conflict between church and family commitments.
"In retrospect, I did everything backward," he said. "I put the Church first, thinking that was where I belonged and figured that my family would just understand. Well, a family can only understand so much. If that situation happened now, I would turn it completely around, explain to my pastor that I wouldn't be able to devote the entire week to church because I needed to be with my family. It's hard, but critical for all deacons to remember that the first half of us always belongs to our families."
The false assumption, Deacon Swope points out, is if a deacon is serving his family, he's not serving God. That could not be further from the truth.
And so he recommends that deacons have a frank conversation with their pastors to work things out from that angle. Most pastors, he said, don't mean to divide families; rather, they're just not aware of the difficulty for the deacon to divide his time and energy.
In the same way, Deacon Swope recommends that deacons have an honest and open conversation with their wives, allowing them to help the deacons work through stress and set clear priorities. He feels he owes a great deal of gratitude to his wife for so faithfully playing that role.
"I sit down and discuss it with my spouse and find out what she thinks," he said. "Sometimes, she'll say 'great go ahead and do it,' but at other times she'll insist that our family needs to be first. I owe that to her."
What frequently happens when this isn't done, he said, is that deacons' wives give up trying to help their husbands to create balance, and so they create a life of their own apart from their husband's diaconate. That's unhealthy both for the deacon's ministry and his marriage.
One way to circumvent that is for deacons to actively seek opportunities to involve their wives in their ministry or find a ministry in which they both can serve together. Even more, Deacon Swope suggests, is that every deacon work in a ministry with his wife in which she is the leader and he is one of the followers.
"When you work together in ministry, you'll find a new dimension for your married life and your diaconate," he said. "Many deacons, because they tend to have leader personalities, don't want to do this. They only want to be involved in ministries that they lead. That's not good."
Preaching can bring about its own set of struggles. Once a deacon is ordained, he must represent the Church at all times, holding fast to its teaching regardless of his personal opinion. That can cause conflict in relationships when what the deacon preaches doesn't coincide with what family, friends and fellow parishioners want to hear.
That happened to Deacon Swope, when he preached about a topic from the perspective of Church teaching. A fellow parishioner, whose strong political opinions disagreed with Deacon Swope's homily, was offended and has rejected him completely.
"When we preach the truth, it will be rejected by some people," he said. "That's a reality. Some people in our parish won't speak to me because I preached the truth, and that can hurt."
Deacon Swope has been able to work through this rejection for the most part by accepting the fact that people who reject him because of what he preaches aren't real friends. Real friends are those who will remain with them over time regardless of what he says at the pulpit.
Another aspect of that same difficulty is that deacons are called to represent the Church in all spheres of their lives. In ministry, secular work and social events, the deacon must always be aware that what he says will reflect on the Church. Thus, he must be careful what he says to anyone.
"It becomes really hard when a deacon is struggling with a Church teaching, either because he doesn't understand it fully or disagrees with it," he said. "But we can't let on to others about that struggle. It's not like we can just pick up the phone and talk about it with anyone. We have to be careful and speak only with those we hold in confidence."
Therefore, Deacon Swope warns, deacons should take these questions to their spiritual directors and discuss them with their immediate family and friends they hold in confidence.
"This happens to every deacon if he's honest with himself," he said.
"We all have doubts, and that's why we cling to our faith. That's the remedy. Still, regardless of our doubts, we're responsible to teach what the Church teaches."
There have been times that family, friends or parishioners have unkindly critiqued Deacon Swope's services or homilies, and that can sting. Every deacon wants to do his best to please those he serves. The remedy for this is to give himself permission to make mistakes and then forgive himself for having made them.
"My skills and gifts are from God, and if I'm using them to the best of my ability after having prepared well, then that's all I can do. Even Jesus couldn't please everyone. They didn't like what he said and they crucified him. How can I possibly think that I could make everyone happy if Jesus couldn't?"
At one time or another in a deacon's ministry, he will be asked to be present at the death of a friend or family member and officiate at the funeral. That can be gut-wrenching.
"You must park your own sorrow," Deacon Swope said. "You must give comfort and peace when others are suffering even though you're suffering as much as they are. Sometimes that seems not humanly possible. Even so, the heart of a deacon's ministry is service, and so you must focus on serving the others."
In this situation, deacons must allow themselves to process their feelings at a later time.
"I remind myself that, if I minister to these people now, God will minister to me later," Deacon Swope said. "After it's over, I go to Jesus and share my pain with him, allowing him to minister to me as I ministered to his people. That has great healing power."
Prayer is Deacon Swope's primary source for strength in living out his vocation. He finds it essential to take time to pray for guidance and support daily and to participate in daily Mass and Eucharistic adoration. He's also grateful for his loving and understanding wife who helps him to balance his work, family and diaconate responsibilities.
Additionally, he finds tremendous encouragement in his relationship with his fellow deacons.
"Remaining close to my brother deacons, especially my father-in-law and our director of deacon personnel, really helped me during the first few years of my diaconate vocation," he said. "They helped me accept the inevitable joys and disappointments that ministry creates in our lives."
Above all, Deacon Swope relies on the knowledge that God cares for and loves him and will not abandon him as he strives to faithfully live his vocation in the service to God's people.

Thy River Runs Red
And we can't fix everything, so sometimes we remain silent despite our inclination to speak up.
But some issues arises that force us the speak up. The climb to the highest peak around and shout at the top of our lungs.
Here is one such issue ...
Come on Man. The words PHILLY CHEESE STEAK should never I repeat NEVER follow the word chicken.
Chickens have breasts, legs, thighs, gizzards, feet, necks, and even giblets, but there ain't a single steak anywhere to be found anywhere on a yard bird my friends. Don't let this happen. Don't let the health nuts muddy the blood red waters of Steak River.
Stand with me on this and boycott anything called a chicken steak. If you ask me this so called Philly is nothing but a glorified panini and in case you wonder how I feel about that horrendous moniker check out this post.

Yes Debra, you have found the loop hole for a chicken fried steak is not actually fowl but beef fried in a chickenly manner.
But I for one never order chicken fry as it is the choice for the elderly without string teeth for chewing good steak and the timid with one foot in the I only eat fish and chicken grave. And they usually serve chicken friend steak with cream gravy which i cannot abide by. Brown gravy however is the nectar of the gods.

Fear not, my fuzzy friend...I wouldn't touch that box with a ten-foot pole. That abomination has "trans fat" and "artificial" written all over it. Not to mention the sodium content found in such concoctions. Gives me chills just thinking about it all. I'll take a good 'ol grilled chicken breast any day.

Technically, chicken is poultry, not meat. So, Poet's ok.
That said, I suggest avoiding most fried food unless you make it at home. Know why? Cuz most eateries use... dun dun dun.... VEGETABLE oil!
Fear not- should you ever travel north, I only use butter, lard, bacon grease, beef fat, goose fat, duck fat, chicken fat, and coconut oil to cook in. :-D I will, however, add a sprig of parsley just to make you mad.

What will happen on the field remains to be seen, but the Houston Texans will have a new look and flavor in the stands at NRG Stadium.
Fans will find several new stores in NRG Stadium selling innovative team "merch" including a Battle Red Boutique for women. The shop will offer jerseys and caps designed and cut for female figures. Texans President Jamey Rootes said the days of "just shrink it and pink it" are gone. The team's fan base is 50 percent female, and women are demanding clothes that fit properly.
Victoria's Secret also is partnering with the Texans to offer specialty team wear for women.
More on the fashion front: the team will offer a new "Platinum Jersey Line." Now you can wear a J.J. Watt jersey in Texans' traditional red, white and blue ... and platinum. If you're interested in buying one of these premium jerseys, a platinum credit card won't be required but it wouldn't hurt.
The Texans also are stepping it up big time at the food concessions. Fans have clamored for more recognized restaurant names on the concourse and club level, and the Texans are delivering. Among Houston favorites in the stands: Bernie's Burger Bus, Demeris BBQ, Genghis Grill, Menchie's Frozen Yogurt, Berryhill Baja Cantina, Goode Company and Prince's.
Celebrity chef Grady Spears is back with a new creation, the "No Bull Texans Chicken Stack" – Hill Country smoked chicken, candied bacon, Texas jack cheese, cranberry mayo and fresh arugula on a Sheila Partin jalapeno roll.
James Beard winning chef Chris Shepherd of Underbelly is cooking up a "Texans Two Step Jalapeno Cheddar Dog," topped with Korean braised beef with bacon jalapeno jelly. It is served with tater top casserole.
We almost feel sorry for the plain ol' hot dog.

|This is the article on the manga chapter. For the tailed beast, head to Ten-Tails. For other uses, see Ten-Tails (disambiguation).
"Ten-Tails" (十尾, Jūbi) is chapter 610 of the original Naruto manga.
Shocked to the see the Ten-Tails before them, Naruto surmises that they must have been tricked as he was unable to sense the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path's malevolent chakra. However, Kurama tells the young man that it was impossible to sense the beast in the Tailed Beast Mode as the beast had neither feelings nor ideals and was akin to natural energy and that using Sage Mode to sense how powerful it was, would be a different matter. Meanwhile, Obito and Madara relocate atop the beast and attach themselves to it. Obito notes that he would like to commence the plan immediately, but Madara is more in favour of testing out the beast's power. As Naruto's attempt to gauge the Ten-Tails' power in Sage Mode ends in Naruto realising that it was indeed truly immeasurable, Kurama asks Gyūki to hand him Might Guy and Kakashi so he could restore their chakra. Taking command, Kurama devises a battle strategy to face the beast launching a continuous stream of Tailed Beast Balls, which culminates with Gyūki seemingly being decimated by the Ten-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball, but it was later revealed that Kakashi had warped it away while being launched by Naruto along with the latter's clone overhead the Ten-Tails where Kakashi released Gyūki who was aiming a Tailed Beast Ball right at the giant beast.

This fish knife was part of a wedding present to Charlotte Wardner Lamson when she married Charles Hyde Warren in 1905. She was the grand-daughter of Ebenezer Lamson, one of the original partners of the Lamson & Goodnow Company of Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts. Lamson & Goodnow prospered in the late 1800s. By the turn of the 20th century, there were few Lamsons left working in the firm, although the company itself was still thriving in Shelburne Falls. This knife is identifiable through its distinctive, rounded blade and pointed tip. Fish knives were one of the many highly specialized pieces of cutlery developed during the Victorian era, as tableware came to include increasingly specialized pieces.

While fellow 2009 draftees Kevin Alston and Omar Gonzalez receive All-Star nods and National Team call-ups, defender Darrius Barnes continues to go quietly about his business
The following story was published in the Revolution's "Match Day" program for the Aug. 28 game against the Philadelphia Union
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – There's a popular saying in the soccer world which claims a defender who goes unnoticed is a defender who's doing his job. Perhaps that's why Darrius Barnes has largely flown under the radar during his first two years with the New England Revolution.
Part of an impressive rookie class of 2009, Barnes joined Major League Soccer alongside a bevy of highly-touted defensive prospects including teammate Kevin Alston and LA Galaxy center back Omar Gonzalez. While Alston (10th overall) and Gonzalez (3rd overall) were both selected in the first round of the MLS SuperDraft, Barnes was drafted with the 40th overall pick and watched as a total of 13 defenders were selected ahead of him.
Despite overcoming the odds to become just the second rookie in MLS history to play every minute of every game last season, Barnes has often been overlooked as both Alston and Gonzalez have received call-ups to the U.S. National Team and have been named MLS All-Stars. Gonzalez was also honored as the 2009 MLS Rookie of the Year, an award Barnes wasn't even a finalist for despite his steady contributions along the Revolution backline.
While many players would feel slighted – or perhaps even disrespected – by such an oversight, Barnes is more than happy to let the spotlight shine on others.
"I'm not all about headlines and glory," he said. "As long as I'm getting my job done, I'll be satisfied."
Barnes has been satisfied working outside the limelight since an early age. While most youth soccer players beg and plead with their coaches to play forward so they can score goals, the Raleigh, N.C., native stepped aside as a youngster and let the other children take the credit while he honed his skills on the backline.
Although Barnes admits to playing forward when he was very young – "On those recreation teams where you score like five goals a game," he said – he began playing as a defender the moment he started to take the game seriously.
"I've just always had that knack for defending, getting stuck in and organizing," Barnes said. "I feel like that's my best position."
Barnes was recruited as a central defender out of high school and had a stellar four-year career at Duke University, playing right back for three years before moving to his more natural central position for his senior season. He earned All-ACC honors during his senior year and helped lead the Blue Devils to NCAA Tournament appearances in each of his four seasons.
Yet heading into the 2009 MLS SuperDraft Barnes was overshadowed by Duke teammate Mike Grella, a high-scoring forward who finished his collegiate career with 41 goals and 27 assists. Despite making clear his European aspirations, Grella was drafted 34th overall by Toronto FC, six spots ahead of Barnes. Grella now plays with English club Leeds United in the Football League Championship.
As Grella began his overseas adventure, Barnes joined the Revolution's preseason training camp with little fanfare. As the sixth of New England's seven selections that year, Barnes was well aware of his underdog status as he tried to earn a roster spot, but that didn't stop him from approaching camp with a positive attitude.
"Of course there was always a chance (I wouldn't make the team), but I didn't come in thinking like that," he said. "I came in thinking I had an equal shot at making the team, just like everyone else. You just have to go in and put your best foot forward. I went in there with a strong mental mindset that I was going to work hard and try to earn a spot."
Barnes did just that, impressing the Revolution coaching staff during a pair of preseason trips to Texas and North Carolina. He signed his first professional contract with the Revs just days before the regular season started, while four of the five players New England drafted ahead of him didn't make the cut.
Not only did Barnes make the team, but he shone when injuries presented him with an opportunity to start the season opener in San Jose. He helped anchor the Revolution backline to a shutout that night against the Earthquakes and never looked back, playing every minute the entire season.
While Barnes had a positive outlook from the start, even he was a little surprised by how smoothly his first professional season unfolded.
"You can never anticipate or predict things like that," he admitted. "It just goes to show if you really want something and you work hard, then anything's possible. That's what I always believe in; whatever I do, I want to put my best foot forward, go out there and give it everything I have. I did that last year, [head coach Steve Nicol] rewarded me, and I was thankful for the opportunity he gave me."
Throughout that first year in the league, Barnes formed a tight bond with Alston, who started 26 games alongside Barnes on the right side of defense. The duo learned the ropes of professional soccer together, often confiding in each other about their experiences both on and off the field. In addition to rooming together on the road, Barnes and Alston now share an apartment outside Boston.
So when Alston received a pair of call-ups to U.S. National Team camps this past winter and started for the 2010 MLS All-Stars against Manchester United in July, Barnes could've easily felt overlooked considering his similar contributions on the Revs' backline. However, Barnes instead seems genuinely delighted about the recognition his friend and teammate has received.
"I think it's great," he said. "I'm happy for him. We came into the league (together) and we're great friends, and to see him get that recognition at such a young age and see him get a call-up to his first National Team camp, I think that's excellent. I hope to join him at some point.
"That's definitely a goal of mine," Barnes said about one day getting his own chance with the U.S. National Team. "I feel like that's every soccer player's goal is to try to play at the highest level you can."
If he continues to perform at his current level, there's no reason he couldn't eventually find himself in consideration for a spot on the National Team. Since Barnes returned from a right foot injury which forced him to miss two months of action – the longest he's ever missed because of an injury, including high school and college – the Revs have gone 6-2-2 in all competitions and have kept six clean sheets during that stretch.
Barnes called the timing of his return from injury and the team's recent success "coincidence," but where the 23-year-old won't give himself credit, his teammates and coaches surely will.
"I think his athleticism is bar none in this league," said goalkeeper Matt Reis, who's had a first-hand view of Barnes' performances the last two years. "He's a great one-on-one defender, he's getting better with the ball at his feet and he's making good decisions.
"It's something that's been proven over the years that if you do well in MLS, then you'll get a try at the National Team level," Reis continued. "He's definitely on an upward trend and he's improving year-in, year-out. If he keeps doing that, then he'll definitely get a chance."
Nicol lauded Barnes' partnership with fellow central defender Emmanuel Osei, who has also played a key role in the Revs' recent success.
"He's been solid," Nicol said of Barnes. "He and Osei have made good decisions when they've played together – that's the biggest thing. Defending is not always about challenges and winning headers, it's about positional stuff and just making good decisions. They've done both of those things."
Ironically, it's Barnes' superior positional sense which makes him a quality defender while simultaneously keeping him out of the spotlight. Defenders rarely receive the same attention as flashy midfielders and high-scoring forwards, but those who do are typically speedy outside backs (like Alston) or physically imposing center backs (like Gonzalez).
As a cerebral defender, Barnes will likely stay out of the headlines no matter how flawlessly he performs his duties. Ask Barnes, and he'll tell you that's just fine with him.
"I enjoy flying under the radar," he said, "because when your opportunity comes to shine, it's that much sweeter."

This is models own red sea, from their splash collection. I was good and limited myself to two of them (and by 'good' I mean 'very, very bad' since I'm meant to be on a total spending ban - oops) and this one caught my eye. It looks amazing over dark colours since the tinsel reflects all shades of red, pink and purple. This is two coats over some random dark purple (ciate something or other?) but it has a red tinted base, so it turned the purple more burgundy. I'm looking forward to wearing this combo in autumn.

Caring for the caregiver
How to avoid stress while taking care of a family member, loved one
Top tips for caregivers
A Guide for the Caregiver - Information and Resources for Caregivers of Older Adults
Information and resources on caregiver stress and burnout - tips for recharging and finding balance
Winnipeg Health Region
Wave, January / February 2013
As the number of older adults increases, many of us will at some point become a caregiver to a parent or other family member who is aging or recovering from a temporary or long-term condition.
While there are formal health services that address medical needs, very often family members are called upon to become what is referred to as informal caregivers.
Informal or unpaid caregivers fulfill a vital role in providing a variety of supports to loved ones, and their contribution is critically important in maintaining a meaningful quality of life for their family member.
But while the caregiving role is meaningful, it can also become very stressful. As a result, it is important for caregivers to find ways to care for their own well-being.
One of the first things to understand about the role of caregiver is that caregiving is an emotional experience. Being a caregiver can affect a person's life in a number of ways, both positively and negatively.
There is satisfaction in knowing that a loved one is being cared for in a certain way, and caregivers gain a sense of satisfaction in knowing that these needs are being met. But caregivers may also feel increased demands on personal time, which can leave caregivers feeling overwhelmed and isolated.
Guilt is a common feeling experienced by caregivers. People may feel that their care is inadequate or that they are not doing enough for their loved one. Feelings of anger and frustration are also common as caregivers grapple with losses and changes in their life and the life of the person they are caring for each day.
If a caregiver is not able to take a break and care for their own wellbeing, these difficult feelings can lead to burnout or depression. The following steps can assist caregivers in meeting the needs of their loved one while maintaining their own well-being.
Get information: It is important to learn about the condition of the person you are caring for so you can better understand what your loved one is experiencing. This, in turn, will help you to know what to expect and how to deal with it.
Information sources could include health-care professionals, self-help and family member organizations or books and magazines.
Aids and supports
Ensure you are properly equipped to care for your loved one or family member. Comfort items and independent living aids such as bathtub bars, walkers, etc. can help ease the burden on caregivers by making things a bit easier for them and possibly preventing injuries as well.
Reach out
It is very important to reach out to others for assistance, even though this can be a difficult thing to do. Recognize that you need not do it all on your own. There are different types of resources, some provided in the home such as home care services or supportive services to family members offered by community organizations such as the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba, the Society for Manitobans with Disabilities or CancerCare Manitoba.
While every organization will offer specific services and supports, some of the types of help that could be offered include information, social and emotional support, transportation, or companionship. Call agencies or visit their websites to find out more. Friends and other extended family often would like to help but aren't sure how. Don't be afraid to ask them for help with a specific task that could lighten your load. Practical assistance such as a hot meal, a shovelled walkway, an outing to the mall or a supportive phone call are simple things that could really make a difference.
Take care of yourself
Caregivers need to find the time to take care of their own health by getting adequate sleep, eating well and finding ways to de-stress. Plan ahead and schedule regular periods of time that would allow you to take some time for yourself. People often underestimate the benefit of even 30 minutes of pleasurable activities in your day such as listening to music, going for a walk, reading or enjoying a hobby. Respite from caregiving can be in the form of time set aside for your own needs and it could also mean finding someone else who can be the caregiver for a short while when you take a break. Respite is a key factor in preventing burnout.
Getting practical help is important, but so is emotional and social support for the caregiver. Many organizations offer family and support groups that allow people to share their experiences, support one another and help caregivers to feel less isolated. Your caregiving is invaluable; give yourself permission to take care of yourself in the process as well.

The manufacturer was Hobbs Brockunier & Co., Wheeling, West Virginia, USA. The original US patent date on this pattern is October 1884, and it is described as "101. YACHT PICKLE" in an old Hobbs Brockunier catalogue. At the top of the catalogue page is the text "... MADE IN CRYSTAL, OLD GOLD, SAF., M. GREEN & CANARY", so this example is in what the glassworks termed "Crystal". In fact it is not completely colourless but a very pale amethyst.The Hobbs design is interesting. First, it must have been the shape that Hobbs was attempting to protect with the patent, as the decoration was an established and well-known cut glass pattern. Second, Hobbs apparently failed to protect the design in Britain, so the design was soon plagiarised by the Warrington glassworks of Edward Bolton, who made the shape more upright, added the emotive inscription "GRACE DARLING" to the stern, and registered this design as their own on 11 December 1885.

American Idol Recap: Top 7 Perform Songs From Now + Then
On tonight's episode (April 18) of 'American Idol,' the Top 7 (since Jessica Sanchez earned the sole season save) performed a modern hit and a throwback classic from the soul era. Each singer performed twice, showing off different sides of their sonic personalities as the season starts to wind down and we inch closer and closer to a winner.
Here's your PopCrush recap of who sang what and when.
Colton Dixon: He went outside the box to perform Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance,' turning in an exciting interpretation where he went down to go up. His throwback song was Earth, Wind and Fire's 'September,' and while he "Colton-ed" it and gave it his own spin, the judges felt it wasn't exciting and wished he had flipped a more drastically different song. Meh, we liked it.
Phillip Phillips: P2 stepped outside of his comfort zone to sing Usher's 'You Got It Bad.' He added his guitar, trying a new voice. He got a standing O from the judges and lots of screams from the ladies in the crowd since he is a true artist who can sing a menu or the phone book. You never know what you're going to get with him and that's what makes him as refreshing as tall glass of lemonade on a steamy day. J. Lo said it best: "That was soooo sexy." Look out Casper Smart. He ditched the guitar and tore up Wilson Pickett's 'Wait Till the Midnight Hour.' Never boring. EVER. He's probably going to win the whole thing. We said it.
Joshua Ledet: He seemed a little fatigued by the heat of the competition, but he offered up a gorgeous rendition of Fantasia's 'I Believe' and came to life again. The boy can sing, no doubts about that. He brought it for his second song, Sam Cooke's 'A Change Is Gonna Come.' He exercised restraint in the beginning and let his performance marinate, which is why it was so effective when his voice popped at the end when he went for it. Pure talent here! Okay, now we think it's going to come down to Joshua and Phillip.
Hollie Cavanagh: The tiny powerhouse with the cute accent showed her ballsy side by doing Adele's 'Rolling in the Deep.' She started out a capella and we were impressed. She finally showed some emotion and connected. It was almost flawless. She reprised with 'Son of a Preacher Man' while dressed top to toe in hot pink. She connected again, with her cute little hand motions. Adorbs.
Elise Testone: She's a fabulous singer, but has no dedicated fanbase, and is clearly being judged week to week while camping out at her summer home in the bottom three. She is always voted low. She turned in a smoky rendition of Alicia Keys' hit 'No One' and came back later to sex up Marvin Gaye's 'Let's Get It On.' It wasn't sexy enough, since she hides her emotion and that's what prevents her from connecting. She should have been on fire on this song. And wasn't.
Jessica Sanchez: After sinking to the bottom and earning the save last week, she needed to connect and have fun with Alicia Keys' 'Fallin.' Alicia twice in one night is never a bad thing. Sanchez is a belter, and she massacred all those notes and proved why the judges spent their sole save of the season on her last week. Otherworldly it was. She returned to perform 'Try a Little Tenderness,' which she rearranged slightly. Another solid offering from Bebe Chez, but one that was also a bit too safe.
Skylar Laine: Gaga popped up again, with Laine doing the country version of 'Born This Way,' which Gaga herself did. It was more rockin' country from lovely Laine. She returned to the stage to strut her way through 'Heard It Through the Grapevine.' She made as soul classic a country song and rocked it.

Cooper Discoverer STT ReviewPosted in Product Reviews on January 17, 2014
While overland travel is a hot new trend in America, it has been a way of life in Australia for decades. Off-road trailers, freezer fridges, and rooftop tents are all commonplace in the Outback. Another feature we have noted on many Australia 4x4 rigs is the use of Cooper tires. We decided to see if the Australians' good taste extended beyond beer and shrimp on the barbie and test some Cooper tires for ourselves.
We ordered up a set of 32x11.5R15 Cooper Discoverer STTs to mount on the factory alloy rims on our Ford Explorer. This particular size is getting harder to find, so we appreciate that Cooper still offers it, along with 27 other sizes up to 37 inches tall. This Explorer isn't trailered; it is driven on everything from freeways to desolate backroads and requires a tire that works well in a wide spectrum of conditions.
As soon as the lug nuts were torqued to spec we headed to Colorado from Albuquerque for a week of exploration that took us over such trails as Schofield Pass, Devil's Punchbowl, Lead King Basin, and Corkscrew Gulch during nearly a thousand miles of backcountry exploration. We ran the Discoverer STTs at 34 psi on the pavement and 25 in the dirt, never encountering terrain difficult enough or soft enough to warrant lower pressures.
We were looking for a tire that works well in a wide spectrum of conditions
We did, however, travel over wet roads, washboard, and sharp rocks during our journey. The Cooper tires did an excellent job in these conditions, resisting hydroplaning and chipping while providing excellent traction. Noise levels were on par with other mud-terrain tires we have tested and not overly loud in the enclosed cab.
After racking up a few thousand more miles of driving on the pavement and the trails the Cooper Discoverer STTs continue to impress. Now we understand why they are so popular Down Under.
Make & Model: Cooper Discoverer STT
Size Tested: 32x11.50R15LT
Type: Mud-terrain radial
Load Range: C
Maximum Load (lb): 2,535 @ 50 psi

This is how the outside of our house is shaping up - we haven't had to do much to the outside except a little power washing and hanging a wreath. I really love the current paint colors and plan to keep them.
Stacked pumpkin planter.
Big girls on the steps. To everyone's amazement, I decided to forgo my typical 'blue and white pumpkin' look and go for traditional orange and green. I think the color scheme goes great with the colors of our house - it feels subtle and natural.
In the flower box, I did orange mums alternating with kale. When the mums are in full bloom, the contrasting green between them will really make the orange pop.
On our side porch, I have more mums and a couple of gourds. I put out some velvet and linen pillows to make our seating really cozy. I'm thinking coffee and scones out here tomorrow morning!

So, there I am sat in my office today when in walks a user with her home box. The story is that they can't log in any way they try. Questioning proves that they have reasonable internet habits, Norton's Securuty Suite etc. etc. etc. The fun thing is that this happened before and they didn't know what else to do but to run the repair, (Read: reinstall), CD that, needless to say, lost all their data.
NP, thinks me.... I boot it up and it comes to the welcome screen.... But there are no names... I click around in case someone has been clever enough to hide a username there.... None. I hit CTRL ALT DEL and after doing it 10 times or so up pops the normal login box with "Owner" already typed in the username... I hit enter and bingo, I'm in. Turns out Owner is a limited/guest account. I try the old "AT 3:30pm net localgroup administrators Tiger_Shark /ADD" and get an "Access denied"... POOH!!!
Not to be outdone I get out my Password Reset floppy and boot to it. When I open the SAM I find an "issue".... Users listed:-
HelpDesk, (or whatever it is called)
Laura (Her)
Mark (Her Hubbie)
Owner (The un-passworded limited/guest account)
Glaringly absent is the Administrator.... It is my understanding that in XP Home the admin can't be deleted, (like any other system), but it can be renamed or reduced in "rank" but only if another user is promoted to admin status.....
I don't believe that these two would mess with this kind of thing.... She is very careful, (call her a worrier), about this though I don't know him..... Bearing in mind that this is the second time this has occurred I have some questions before I start working on it again because when I logged in as him the box all but froze and there wasn't much going on - It wasn't plugged into the network which _may_ have contributed to the freeze.... At this point I decided that since it was already past 4:15 that a trip to the Satellite office and a message posted here might be a wise way to proceed.... So, the questions:
1. Are my assumptions correct about XP home that the Admin can't be deleted?
2. Has anyone seen this behaviour before, (no users listed at "Welcome" screen, no admin account), if so do you have any insight, solutions, theories?
3. While I can't think of any virus that does this I can't pass up the thought of a trojan or other malware..... Anyone hear of any Trojan/Malware that might display similar behaviour?
4. If the SAM is damaged, (thus the no users on the "Welcome" screen), and there is no system recovery set up, (it looks like SP2 and it's on by default there right?), then the SAM can't just be replaced... obviously.... But could it be deleted? Would the system recreate the SAM with a blank admin password or is the system foxxed?
