Hi Sergey,
I just installed the latest (April 2010) beta and it's great, except... now when I open a XAML file in VS, VS crashes. I confirmed it is the latest DPack beta causing this by de-installing the latest beta and installing the latest release version. That causes the problem to go away.
To reproduce:
Open a XAML file, wait 10 seconds or so, VS will suddenly dissappear (but the process is still hanging around taking as much CPU time as it can get).
I don't know if it makes a difference but I have my VS configured not to open XAML files in the standard WPF designer, instead my default editor mode is "Source Code (Text) Editor)" - right click on a XAML file, choose "Open With", select that option from the list. This is configured that way because that editor is much faster than the WPF one and I don't care about loosing the visual designer.

Ceiling (aeronautics)
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2009)
With respect to aircraft performance, a ceiling is the maximum density altitude an aircraft can reach under a set of conditions, as determined by its flight envelope.
Service ceiling
Service ceiling is where the rate of climb drops below a prescribed value.
The service ceiling is the maximum usable altitude of an aircraft. Specifically, it is the density altitude at which flying in a clean configuration, at the best rate of climb airspeed for that altitude and with all engines operating and producing maximum continuous power, will produce a given rate of climb (a typical value might be 100 feet per minute climb or 30 metres per minute,[1] or on the order of 500 feet per minute climb for jet aircraft). Margin to stall at service ceiling is 1.5 g.[citation needed]
The one engine inoperative (OEI) service ceiling of a twin-engine, fixed-wing aircraft is the density altitude at which flying in a clean configuration, at the best rate of climb airspeed for that altitude with one engine producing maximum continuous power and the other engine shut down and feathered, will produce a given rate of climb (usually 50 feet per minute).[citation needed]
However some performance charts will define the service ceiling as the pressure altitude at which the aircraft will have the capability of climbing at 50 ft/min with one propeller feathered.
Absolute ceiling
Absolute ceiling is the height at which rate of climb drops to zero.
|This article may be too technical for most readers to understand. (April 2012)
The absolute ceiling is the highest altitude at which an aircraft can sustain level flight, which means the altitude at which the thrust of the engines at full power is equal to the total drag at minimum drag speed. In other words, it is the altitude where maximum thrust available equals minimum thrust required, so the altitude where the maximum sustained (with no decreasing airspeed) rate of climb is zero. Most commercial jetliners have a service (or certificated) ceiling of about Script error: No such module "convert".[citation needed] and some business jets about Script error: No such module "convert"..[2] While these aircraft's absolute ceiling is much higher than standard operational purposes, it is impossible to reach (because of the vertical speed asymptotically approaching zero) without afterburners or other devices temporarily increasing thrust. Another factor that makes it impossible for some aircraft to reach their absolute ceiling, even with temporary increases in thrust, is the aircraft reaching the "Coffin Corner." Flight at the absolute ceiling is also not economically advantageous due to the low indicated airspeed which can be sustained: although the true airspeed (TAS) at an altitude is typically greater than indicated airspeed (IAS), the difference is not enough to compensate for the fact that IAS at which minimum drag is achieved is usually low, so a flight at an absolute ceiling altitude results in a low TAS as well, and hence in a high fuel burn rate per distance traveled. The absolute ceiling varies with the air temperature and, overall, the aircraft weight (usually calculated at MTOW).[1]

Cordova Property Management
Let us manage your Cordova, Tennessee rental property
Serving the following areas - Cordova (TN), Bartlett (TN), Marion (AR), Arlington (TN), Lakeland (TN), Memphis (TN), Collierville (TN), Germantown (TN), West Memphis (AR), Southaven (MS), Olive Branch (MS).
With over 100 years of Property Management and Real Estate experience, The Jander Group offers a full range of property management services tailored to you as an investor, homeowner, or landlord. We have an extensive portfolio of single family homes, townhouses and condos in the Cordova area. The one thing that remains the same for each type of owner is our end goal; maintaining a steady revenue stream through having the property leased, while protecting the property as if it were our own. We want to maximize your income by keeping your expenses as low as possible. At the same time, The Jander Group strives to ensure the long term profitability for our owners by making sure the necessary maintenance tasks are properly completed to maintain the integrity of your quality rental property. This essential balance takes experience as well as tried and trusted systems and procedures to ensure all of these aspects run smooth. We provide full management services, including aggressive marketing techniques, tenant screening, leasing, maintenance, inspections and accounting. For investors, we are a "one stop shop". We can assist with purchasing residential investment properties, as well as with rehabs as your consultant, securing a quality tenant and subsequent management of the property. We can also assist with the sale down the road, if and when that time comes. If you own a residential home or property and are looking for a management team, look no further!
Why you should choose The Jander Group, Inc. for your property management
- The Jander Group, Inc. tackles the daily tasks associated with owning a rental home allowing property owners to focus their energy and time elsewhere. We regularly update you on your property's activities and provide our expert advice when you have to make major decisions.
- Residential Property Management is our specialty with our staff having over 100 years of experience in the industry. You can trust us to manage your property as if it were our own.
- When your property is available for rent, we professionally advertise the home through our state of the art website, many common home search websites and through our numerous local real estate contacts. In addition to digital photos of both the interior and exterior, we also provide internal videos of vacant homes in our website advertising.
- We place our professional "For Lease" sign in the yard of your rental home to capture local drive-by traffic provided the home's subdivision allows such signage.
- The Jander Group expeditiously replies to rental inquiries
- Our professional, knowledgeable and ethical staff begins to establish an amicable relationship with potential renters at first contact.
- Our friendly leasing agents personally show your rental home to prospective renters in order to further establish our professional character and highlight the characteristics of your property and the neighborhood. Many property management companies have recently eliminated this vital leasing element to cut costs and now only exhibit homes via remote showings which potentially compromises the safety of your investment.
- Our lease application is available via our website for potential renters.
- We meticulously process lease applications to determine the lease applicant's qualifications for rental. At minimum, we obtain a credit report, search eviction and criminal records, thoroughly verify rental/mortgage history, and validate stated income to analyze debt to income ratios.
- The Jander Group, Inc. further protects property owners via a detailed, proprietary lease agreement examined by real estate attorneys to be in compliance with local Landlord Tenant Law.
- Rent is due on the 1st. If the rent is not received by the close of the state specified grace period, the tenant is promptly contacted and served with the state specific notice to pay documentation.
- Owner may elect to receive their monthly owner proceeds via check or direct deposit. Proceeds are disbursed on or before the 15th of the month provided your tenant made timely payment.
- Our property management software allows you to access your monthly statements at your convenience via your online owner portal. If any maintenance tasks were required, your monthly statements will include a PDF of the actual invoice.
- The Jander Group diligently works to complete Year-End Accounting no later than the end of January for we know you promptly need this documentation to accurately and timely prepare your taxes.
- The Jander Group uses independent vendors to fix maintenance issues when they arise at your rental property. We vet these vendors to insure they complete quality work at reasonable rates and require all vendors to carry and provide proof of liability insurance and/or workman's compensation insurance. In the same manner that we strive to quickly disburse your rental proceeds each month, we promptly pay vendor invoices, which certainly does not go unnoticed in the vendor community. We routinely receive requests from local companies asking to be added to our vendor list due to our exemplary reputation.
- Our quality relationships with our independent vendors certainly aid in our high retention rate of tenants. Since most of our vendors have worked for us for a number of years, they greatly appreciate our professional business practices which translates to them making sure to give our tenants prompt and friendly service. It is not uncommon for one of our vendors to prioritize our properties for they know that they will not have to beg us to pay their invoices.
- There is never an up-charge assessed for maintenance work. Your account is charged for the exact amount paid on the vendor invoice.
- We fully realize that prompt responses to maintenance requests not only protects your investment but also keeps your tenant happy. A happy tenant is much more likely to renew their lease agreement which makes your investment more profitable.
- As your tenant's lease agreement approaches its end date, The Jander Group contacts your tenant to coordinate a renewal lease term. Turnaround costs between tenants is one of the largest rental home expenses, which is why we strive to have a great relationship with your tenant increasing the likelihood of lease renewal.
- When a tenant does move out of your rental home, we complete a detailed move-out inspection accurately documenting the property's condition via photos.
- The Jander Group places extreme care on Security Deposit Dispositions individually processing each in accordance with the respective state statutes.
Property Evaluation+
The Jander Group will complete a thorough assessment of the rental market for your home's particular area and neighborhood as well as the overall Cordova area. We will also report the overall condition of your rental home and advise of potential upgrades that could increase the demand and rent. Our evaluation will include an accurate and realistic rental range in order to get your property rented as soon as possible to a quality tenant.
Properly marketing your rental home is essential for finding a quality tenant. The number one place people search from rental homes is online, which is why we invest a majority of our resources in strategic internet marketing through our property management optimized website, over 30 real estate specific advertising websites, and our local Realtor/MLS Organizations. In addition to our online presence, we have strong relationships with our fellow realtors and local real estate community greatly aiding our ability to secure realtor referrals for outstanding clients. Our exemplary reputation extends through the local business chamber and Better Business Bureau. To make sure we still capture the old fashion drive by client, we will place one of our professional For Lease signs in the property's yard provided the local HOA allows such.
Tenant Screening+
Proper tenant screening is absolutely vital to a successful rental property; however, very few companies devote the necessary resources to fully screen prospective tenants. Most companies will take just about anyone who has a security deposit regardless of the person's financial viability for the sooner the company rents the home, the quicker that company gets paid. While The Jander Group certainly strives to promptly lease each property, we will not approve a lease application unless the applicant meets our standard leasing criteria designed to minimize the potential risk for you as the property owner. All too often we receive inquiries from prospective management clients in horrible situations with destructive and non-paying tenants that most likely should have never been permitted to lease their rental home.
The saying "you get what you pay for" routinely holds true in the property management industry and a property owner will always be taking a huge risk with a discount property management company.
We meticulously process lease applications to determine the lease applicant's qualifications for rental. At minimum, we obtain a full credit report, search eviction and criminal records, thoroughly verify rental/mortgage history, and validate stated income to analyze debt to income ratios. We actually take the time to fully analyze the lease applicant's financial viability to practically eliminate the risk of default. We have the lowest eviction rates in the local area, which is a testament to our diligence in seeking out and securing quality tenants for our property owners.
Security Deposits+
Our standard security deposit is normally equal in value to one month's rent. There are some instances in which a lease applicant might be conditionally approved based on a higher security deposit amount. As required by Florida Law, the tenant's security deposit must be held in our escrow account until the tenant vacates the property. A tenant's deposit is for damages only, not normal wear and tear and is not used as last month's rent. After The Jander Group completes the required move-out inspection, we compile the tenant's final accounting in order to accurately prepare the security deposit disposition, which is sent to the tenant via certified mail within the time frame mandated by Florida Law.
Lease Preparation +
Our proprietary lease agreement is very detailed and written by experience real estate attorneys to ensure proper compliance with state's respective Landlord Tenant Law. Additionally, our lease agreement is updated in adherence to statutes' changes and routinely revised to properly account for the ever increasing demands of the property management industry.

From Our Clients
Single family homes are an attractive investment option. But the typical investor relies upon expert support throughout the "life cycle": property acquisition, tenant identification and management, property maintenance and ultimately property disposition. This is especially true for an investor that lives outside of the area.
Having enjoyed six such life cycles over the past 15 years, we are delighted to be able to endorse the range of professional services offered by Jander. Our expectations have consistently been exceeded at each step of the way. They are a tremendous business partner.

Woman's death not suspicious
Schenectady police say 2 children in apartment are in protective care
SCHENECTADY — The death of a woman found in a building where a homicide suspect lived does not appear to be suspicious, authorities said Friday.
An autopsy did not determine what caused her death, police said.
Police said they are not going to release the name of the woman found on Thursday in a second-floor apartment at 847 Eastern Ave. An autopsy was performed Friday but police said its findings were "inconclusive." The medical examiner's office is awaiting toxicology tests.
Police said the case has no connection to parolee Michael Briggs, 37, who lived in the same building on the same floor and is being eyed by police as a suspect in the death Mary Greco. The 82-year-old retired nun was found dead on New Year's Day in her nearby Stanford Street home.
In the Eastern Avenue case, few details — including the woman's age and identity, or when she died — were immediately available.
Neighbors said she had two children, including an infant. Police said two children were being treated for undisclosed medical problems at Albany Medical Center and were in the care of Child Protective Services.
Briggs has not been charged in Greco's death, but is being held at the county jail on a charge of violating parole.

Well, I started talking about ornaments when I was talking about the tree, but I have some other things to add about trees that I thought of so I guess that works!!
When I was in high school we lived on a farm and we always had a real tree. It was a tradition that we got the tractor ready and hooked up to our trailer. We lined the trailer with hay and all of us loaded in bundled up and full of blankets. Of course we also loaded up our dogs and made our 10 mile an hour trek to the Christmas Tree farm a couple miles from our house. At the Christmas tree farm we walked around until we all agreed on a tree and then chopped it down. We got hot chocolate and then we headed home. Normally someone drove in a vehicle as well in case there were babies or anyone was sick or the little dogs. Now the farm is gone, the tractor is gone and the Christmas tree farm is gone but the memories will always live.
Back to ornaments though... Like I mentioned earlier, I get an ornament every year to symbolize something for that year. We just decorated our tree yesterday and I was looking through my ornaments (some which are missing now) and just remembering what they stood for. Some went back in the box but all the ones for my animals came out and my step sons were all too happy to hang up the one's for my baby girl Sierra. (They also love to make her wear Reindeer antlers lol). My grandma Wright and I go every year and pick out our ornament. There are so many to choose from but her and I love to go and just browse to find the right one. It's something I look forward to every year.

There were no surprises in the list of players the Mets non-tendered yesterday, beginning with pitchers Lance Broadway and Tim Redding, and outfielders Jeremy Reed and Cory Sullivan. It's not as if losing these guys will make a difference, but they are four more spots that need to be filled.
A couple of names did pop out to me. But, I do realize these guys were non-tendered for a reason.
Left-hander Scott Olsen as a possible fifth starter and Mike MacDougal as a possible set-up reliever (both of the Nationals) are intriguing. Reds outfielder Jonny Gomes as a bench player. The most interesting to me are Oakland outfielder Jack Cust and Giants first baseman Ryan Garko. I also wrote yesterday of taking a gamble on Yankees pitcher Chien-Ming Wang.
Here's the list of non-tendered players. Those with asterisks are injured.
Angels: RHP Jose Arredondo*, INF Matt Brown, RHP Dustin Moseley
Athletics: OF Jack Cust
Blue Jays: C Raul Chavez
Indians: RHP Adam Miller*, RHP Anthony Reyes*, RHP Jose Veras

Orioles: RHP Brian Bass

Cubs: LHP Neal Cotts
Diamondbacks: 1B Josh Whitesell
Giants: 1B Ryan Garko

Can Samsung Electronics' shares rise another 40% this year?
Japanese brokerage Nomura seems to think so, reiterating in a brokerage note Tuesday that it remains confident Samsung\'s Seoul-traded shares will eventually reach 2,000,000 won ($1,880.68) a piece. It released the research note after reviewing the company's quarterly profit result.
The target price is more than 40% higher than Samsung's 1,411.50 won close Tuesday. The share ended down 18.57 won, or 1.2%, for the session.
Earlier in the day Samsung said it expects to post an operating profit of 8.6 trillion won to 9 trillion won ($8.1 billion to $8.5 billion) for the October to December quarter, exceeding the previous quarter\'s record 8.06 trillion won. The range was ahead of Nomura's estimate for an 8.6 trillion won operating profit, and also ahead of consensus estimates of 8.7 trillion won.
New smartphones and tablet models helped to underpin the strong result, Nomura said. Semiconductors and TVs also performed well, the analysts noted.
In spite of the outsized jump in the share price last year, earnings growth has largely kept pace. Samsung currently trades at 7.6 times forward price/earnings, a level that doesn't look expensive, Nomura indicated.
Meanwhile it wasn\'t clear that currency fluctuations were poised to disrupt Samsung\'s performance in coming quarters. During the past year, gains in the South Korean currency against the U.S. dollar had a negative effect on the Samsung\'s component business, but tended to benefit other parts of its product line up.
"In net, the foreign exchange exposure seems to have worked slightly positively for overall performance despite the weak U.S. dollar," Nomura said.
Nomura, in the same note, reiterated its recommendation for investors to buy the share.
Samsung is due to release its 2012 result later this month.

Once upon a time ... three British ladies who sat in a circle with one medium and three Beings of Light who, attracted by the Light of their auras, came and started a cycle extraordinarily informative messages which triggered my spiritual awakening.
This is my tribute to all of them because I know that the many still sleeping and skeptical will see the beauty and the message of Light and Love contained in each of them.
Be at peace
I am no-one special. I am a curious, problem solving type who's strict upbringing in the Catholic community gave me the foundation of a service to others ethic and a resolve for justice and peace.
I guess that is why, when drawn to others who were able to see beyond the ordinary we were chosen to receive outstanding messages, and beyond that, to see the MESSENGERS
We had a talented medium who was able to 'move over' and let spiritual light beings use her voice.
We were told things that would freeze us with fear, and others that were so amazing we would literally be silent and gasping at the end of the sessions.
We did this for about 8 years off and on. Above all we were compelled to return nearly every Monday for another gruelling session that would ultimately wake us out of our comfortable slumber and start the process of truth, research and upliftment.
Even more astonishing was the fact that we saw three separate light beings distinct from each other. We tested each other to see if we were imagining them and named them 1, 2 and 3 in order of appearance in many tests. The numbers stuck and the transcriptions state thus. (The Beings of Light preferred this too, as when asked their names, they insisted that we wouldn't know them, and that numbers were fine).
I found a reference to our phenomenon in an ancient script. The Apochryphon of John.
(In the light I beheld a youth who stood beside me. Even as I looked he became like an old man, then like a servant. Yet there were not three before me, but one, with multiple forms appearing through each other as though transparent. He said to me, "John, John, why do you doubt? And why are you afraid? I am the one who is with you always. I am the Father. I am the Mother. I am the Son.")
Curiously, this is EXACTLY how we saw our B.O.L. Morphing and then settling into one familiar face. It makes you think about what was reported from ancient times, and who these 'apparitions' really were.
Ours when asked who they were, said: Alpha, Omega, Andromeda. Still makes me tingle to think of the possibilities!

COLUMBIA CITY — CANI (Community Action of Northeast Indiana) Head Start is looking to fill open spots in its nonprofit, social service agency. Head Start is a free, comprehensive preschool program for low-income, three-to five year old children and works to provide quality education in order to prepare children for kindergarten.

City of Lincoln
Mayor's Office
2006 Media Releases
Mayor Coleen J. Seng today named Deputy Chief Dan Wright, a veteran of nearly 30 years with the Lincoln Fire and Rescue Department (LFR), as Interim Fire Chief.
"Chief Wright's broad based skills, knowledge of the department and ability to lead on an interim basis will serve the department well," said Mayor Seng. "His up-front attitude, honesty, sincerity and ability to relate to others and deal with a changing environment will provide the steady reassuring presence that will benefit the department until a permanent chief is named. I am confident he is the right person for this interim post."
Wright is currently serving as the Deputy Chief of the Training Division, a post he has held since 1996. He served as a Captain from 1991 to 1996 and has worked for the Fire Department since 1977.
Wright will serve as the Interim Fire Chief until a permanent Fire Chief is selected. The Fire Chief job was advertised in September and October, and the application deadline was October 13. The City-County Personnel Department is currently checking qualifications and credentials of the applicants. The Mayor will begin reviewing and screening the applicants as soon as the Personnel Department has completed its checks.
Mayor Seng said Wright's name was among those that rose to the top following the first phase of the Talent Plus assignment, which was to conduct an assessment of the managers and supervisors of LFR. Talent Plus interviewed 80 supervisors and managers, including the Business Manager, Fire Captains, Deputy Chiefs, and Assistant Chiefs.
Talent Plus was hired to work on three items. The first of those was to conduct individual assessments of administrative, management and supervisory positions within LFR. Talent Plus also will assist with the process of reviewing the applicants for the permanent Fire Chief. Second, Talent Plus is conducting an assessment of the management and administrative policies of LFR to identify changes to improve the business operation of the department. Third, Talent Plus will identify an ongoing management and leadership program for LFR personnel to enhance ongoing management practices and performance.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — EBay Inc. reported a 17% jump in adjusted earnings for the fourth quarter on Wednesday afternoon, narrowly beating Wall Street's estimates, thanks to strength in both its Marketplace and PayPal businesses.
Shares of eBay EBAY, +0.72% first slipped by a fraction, then rose about 1% in after-hours trading following the report. The company's forecast for the current period was slightly below analysts estimates. The stock has surged more than 70% over the last 12 months.
In a conference call to discuss the results, eBay CEO John Donahoe pointed to strong growth in mobile commerce, which he said delivered "exceptional volume growth" during the period.
"Mobile is quickly becoming the new normal and we're leading this new way consumers shop and pay," he said.
For the quarter ended Dec. 31, eBay reported net income of $751 million, or 57 cents a share, compared with net income of $1.98 billion, or $1.51 a share, for the same period the previous year, which saw a big boost from the sale of Skype.
Adjusted earnings came in at $927 million, or 70 cents a share, for the recent period. Revenue rose 18% to $4 billion.
Analysts were expecting earnings of 69 cents a share on revenue of $3.98 billion, according to consensus estimates from FactSet.
The Marketplace business saw revenue grow 16% to $2.05 billion. Revenue from the PayPal business grew 24% to $1.5 billion. Gross merchandise volume on marketplaces was up 16%, excluding vehicle sales.
EBay projected earnings in the range of 60-62 cents a share with revenue in the range of $3.65 billion to $3.75 billion for the first quarter. Analysts were expecting earnings of 64 cents a share on revenue of $3.8 billion, according to FactSet.

The Mars Expedition
Every clean cut, down-the-middle pop superstar has an alter ego hiding just out of sight. In the case of Bruno Mars, we've gotten glimpses—this is a man, after all, who's already had one high profile drug-possession bust and whose latest global smash-hit single is all about a girl's vagina. But when he picks you up in his car just after midnight in Los Angeles, you never know where he's going to take you next. Chris Heath goes for a ride with pop music's biggest hitmaker
In the beginning—two days before Bruno Mars will pick me up after midnight with a bottle of rum in his hand and a roll of over $3,000 tucked in his pocket—we just talk at his house.
Mars has been living here since last summer. His home is quite simple—"I don't throw lavish parties or nothing like that, I just want a bed and a TV"—but with fancy flourishes. In the driveway is a recent purchase, a gold 1967 Chevy Super Sport Nova. Through a doorway I can see a gleaming metal palm tree. "Brass," he says. "I should have said gold. Shit." No matter. "Isn't that the coolest thing you've ever seen in your life? Doesn't that blow your mind? That's my palm tree." The house sits on a single level near the crest of a hill in Los Angeles with a view of the Valley. "I don't like two stories," he explains. "I like one story. I never grew up with stairs. I like to stick to what I know."
His only visible companion here is his Rottweiler. Mars got Geronimo last April as a puppy. "That was my dream, man. I was, 'Man, I want a dog. I need a dog. A big one.' " And now he has a big dog. "And then they bite and ruin all your furniture and shoes and shit," he says. While Geronimo starts to quietly savage me—taking my left hand, then my wrist, then my forearm in his mouth—Mars and I discuss some songs from his new album, Unorthodox Jukebox. I quickly realize that to get the best out of him, to unlock his most impassioned and pure testimony—and a playfully spiky sense of humor—a little provocation is sometimes required. Okay. If he needs a foil, someone to play the idiot, I can be here for him.
We begin with the recently omnipresent "Locked Out of Heaven," which channels the spirit of early Police into something joyous, idiosyncratic, and utterly contemporary. It is also one of many songs on his new album that are about sex. "It feels good to sing about," he begins. "It feels...sexy. It puts you in a sexy frame of mind. It feels good to pro-ject. Sex is a great party starter."
A pop song about sex is nothing unusual. It is less common for a chart-topping single to be essentially one long hymn of praise and supplication to a vagina.
"Pretty awesome, right?" he says. "The verses to me are what really makes that song: Swimming in your water is something spiritual."
If this still sounds vague in its allusions, when Mars was answering fans' questions online last October, he clarified exactly which body of water he was referring to. "As in da pussay leche," he tweeted.
"I'm a writer, man!" he says when I mention this tweet. "What do you want me to do? It was just a moment. It felt like the right thing to do."
In a fairly direct anatomical way, I say.
"You can't use big words with me. What does anatomical mean?"
He is spelling out, I explain, that the song is about what's between a woman's legs.
"Sure," he says. "In the most beautiful, passionate, sexy way ever."
Some people, I persist relentlessly, might find an extended metaphor that aligns religion and a vagina to be blasphemous.
Mars chooses to take this as something of an affront. "It's like that saying: 'If you think it's racist, then you're racist,' " he protests. "If you think it's blasphemous, then obviously you don't know that it's poetry. You can pick apart all of my songs. A bullet through your brain, man? That's not politically correct." He is referring here to the lyrics—_I would...take a bullet straight through my brain—_from "Grenade," the high point of his first album, in which he offers a gruesome list of harms he would be prepared to face on behalf of a lover who he now realizes would not reciprocate. "You're not listening to it right if you're picking it apart like that. You know? I can't overthink everything I wrote or worry about that kind of stuff. Hopefully people should know. There's no blasphemy. Or insult to any religion. It's just fucking poetry, whether you believe me or not."
Another of Mars's favorites on the new album, "Gorilla," builds to a chorus in which Mars declares, You and me, baby, making love like gorillas. I bet I can find a few questions he'll find exasperating on this topic.
"It was just painting a picture—some animalistic sex," he says. "Instead of me singing 'You and me having animalistic sex'—which is a terrible lyric."
So what, exactly, is "making love like a gorilla"?
"What does that sound like to you? Come on, you're a grown man. You've been there. Why are you making me feel like I'm the only one in the room? What is this, 1933? We can't talk about this? I'll give you some videotapes."
So your idea of a perfect encounter—as described in the song—is one where your partner is screaming to you, "Give it to me, baby, give it to me, motherfucker," while the cops who have been attracted by the violent noises the two of you are making are outside trying to get in?
"It definitely sounds awesome. Right? Isn't that what matters? It's an awesome song! I don't know how to tell you that more. You want me to take my clothes off and show you what it's like? Give you examples."
I did spend about four minutes earlier Googling how gorillas actually have sex.
"Is it everything I hope it is?"
"Have you seen them in the dark?"
No. But they have rather boring sex.
"Oh, don't nerd out on me. You know what I was talking about!"
Also, did you know that gorillas have amazingly small penises compared with their size?
"I didn't know that. You're kind of ruining my thought of the song. Let me think it's an awesome song. Next time I write a song, I'll make sure to do all the proper research." He imitates me. "'You know, when you say 'locked out of heaven,' I don't know if they actually have locks...."
Now he's in the mood to really start explaining. "You know how hard it is to write a big song?" he says. "That shit is hard, man. It's so hard to do. Might be one of the hardest things to ever do. I don't ever want to come out with something safe and get away with 'It sounds good!' It's got to be more than sounding good. The music I like are events. Fucking 'Bohemian Rhapsody'is my favorite song—that song's an event. And that's what I want to do. I'm sure that shocked the world, that song. 'Billie Jean' shocked the world. 'Smells Like Teen Spirit.' Those songs are events. That guy put everything he got into that, and he _meant _it." Just like Mars did, he's saying, for his latest songs. "It's that unexplainable high. Why I keep doing it. That feeling that you keep on chasing and chasing. Because it's _nothing, _man. It's taking the air and turning it into something. That's the feeling."
Bruno Mars, who works with two partners as the songwriting-and-production team known by the name the Smeezingtons, is beginning to stake a claim as one of the most gifted songwriters of his generation. Among the highlights so far: the two biggest hits off his first album, "Grenade" and "Just the Way You Are"; the new "When I Was Your Man"; Cee Lo's "Fuck You"; Lil Wayne's "Mirror"; the pair of songs that started it all, B.o.B.'s "Nothin' on You" and Travie McCoy's "Billionaire"; and, of course, "Locked Out of Heaven."
"That one shocked me. That it turned out the way it did. I haven't done a song like that. And hopefully every album, I'll get that feeling. And shock the world! Shock the world!"
You want to shock the world?
"Hell yeah! I've got nothing else to do."
Mars stretches out on the sprawling sofa in front of the TV, grabs an acoustic guitar, and starts noodling, picking out the chords to his 2011 hit "The Lazy Song." ("I hate that song, by the way," he told me earlier.) In a row on the wall behind the sofa are three paintings of Elvis movie posters, made for the films' original theatrical runs in Hawaii's biggest cinema: _King Creole, Blue __Hawaii, _and Girls! Girls! Girls! The paintings used to belong to Mars's father, who, among many other ventures, once had an Elvis-memorabilia store in Honolulu. Mars always wanted the paintings, but years back, when times got tough, his father had to sellthem: "He needed the dough." Then, on a recent trip home, Mars found himself in a '50s diner, and there they were. Negotiations began. It was King Creole that he wanted most of all—"my favorite Elvis movie"—but he bought the lot. "I was being a jerk," he says, "so I was, 'Give me all of them.' "
Mars was born Peter Hernandez twenty-seven years ago to a Puerto Rican Jewish percussionist from Brooklyn and a singer and dancer from the Philippines who met in Hawaii, and he landed the nickname Bruno as a toddler, supposedly because as an infant he looked like a famous wrestler, Bruno Sammartino; the surname Mars would only come as an adult. The most famous fact in Bruno Mars's biography is that by the age of 4 he was appearing onstage in his father and uncle's Hawaiian variety show impersonating Elvis Presley. "I don't remember much," he says. "I probably couldn't even speak that much." A grin. "But I was fucking great at it."
Against that, school paled. "And then you're going to school and learning about fucking Christopher Columbus and stuff..." says Mars. It was hard to care. All day he would be thinking how he couldn't wait to go and perform that night. "It was like turning into Batman. I'd go to school and kids are calling me Peter and we're playing baseball and kickball and shit, and then—'All right, guys, I've got to go!'—you put on a sequined jumpsuit, and all of a sudden you're Bruno, the world's youngest Elvis impersonator!"
Whatever wisdom he assimilated back then, his talent still took time to congeal. After Mars moved to Los Angeles at 17, there were various misfires—a contract with Motown, a spell with Will.i.am's management—and a few years in the wilderness. One problem was his name. He parodies the kind of response he would get: "Your last name's Hernandez, maybe you should do this Latin music, this Spanish music.... Enrique's so hot right now." He shakes his head. Eventually he sidestepped the issue by adopting the name Mars, perhaps figuring that the best way to avoid being stereotyped by race is to sound as though you come from a different planet altogether.
By then, he had formed the Smeezingtons with two friends; his breakthrough finally came when he appeared on two 2010 songs they'd written and produced. These were notionally B.o.B. and Travie McCoy singles, but it was Mars who was instantly recognizable for his joyously pure high voice and, in the videos, for his confident smile under a distinctive gray fedora.
What's the secret to a good song?
Mars gives this question some careful consideration. "Shit. For me? Hypnotize me in the very first three seconds, wake my ear plate up, give me something that I haven't felt before...and then punch me in the fucking face."
When Mars asks me** **what I actually think of his song "Gorilla," I mention that its brutality does make me feel a little uncomfortable. It is this comment that leads us somewhere else entirely.
"You think it's uncomfortable for you?" he says. "You don't think I knew the backlashes that might come with that song? You know, like the first line is I got a body full of liquor with a cocaine kicker."
There is that. Why did that line come into your head?
"Just because the room was dark, and I felt like..."—he laughs—"...Johnny Cash."
_Do you mean you felt like the Johnny Cash who sang _"I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die"?
"Yeah! It's that shit. As a songwriter, you don't have the luxury of a movie to build characters and have a beginning and show the scene of you guys in the bedroom and it's a crusty house and it's dark. So how you do it as a songwriter is to say, 'I shot the motherfucker in Reno.' It's that. To get your point across. I guess I wanted people to know what time it was pretty quick. You know, the sense of danger. 'I'm not talking about love right now, or heartbreak. I'm talking about something totally different.' "
Did people around you have any concerns that this lyric was going to dovetail with—
He interrupts. He knows where this is going. On September 19, 2010, just as his first solo single, "Just the Way You Are," was rising toward number one, Mars was arrested in a bathroom at the Hard Rock casino in Las Vegas and subsequently charged with cocaine possession. (The arresting officer claimed that Mars said, "Can I speak to you honestly, sir?" and told him that he had done something foolish but had never used drugs before. Mars took education courses and performed community service in exchange for the case's dismissal.)
"Yeah," he says. "Really, it's on me. It's like: 'Bruno, you want to deal with this shit? You know when Chris comes over, he's going to ask you about that shit, right?' " But he refuses to censor a song for a reason like that. "If I changed for the masses so that I don't have to answer this question, then I'm a puppet! Then this isn't fun for me anymore."
Good answer. But now, of course, Chris is going to ask you about that shit.
"Let's hear it. It's not my first rodeo."
So, Vegas. What happened that night?
"I was young, man! I was in fucking Vegas. I wasn't thinking."
What did you think when they caught you?
"That was the thing—I wasn't thinking."
But it was a real "oh shit" moment?
"Oh yeah, just like any other human, anyone that's ever been arrested before: 'Yeah, dummy.' "
Were you scared?
"Oh yeah, of course. I was given a number one record and I'm out doing dumb shit."
And you told them it was the first time you'd ever done anything like that?
"I don't know where that came from. I was really intoxicated. I was really drunk. So a lot of that is a big blur, and I try every day to forget and keep pushing."
But if you did tell them that, might it have been shading the truth a little?
He pauses for some time. "I don't know if I should comment on that or not."
What were the lessons from it?
" 'I can take this shit away from you, young man.' That was the lesson. You've slaved away for years and years and years. You've prepped your whole life. It's all you know how to do. You're a kid experiencing life in fucking Sin City, and that was the lesson: It can all be taken away. Put you in a weird place. Embarrass you."
Mars picks me up from my hotel at around one in the morning. As I slide into the backseat next to him, he hands me an unlabeled bottle of rum to swig from. Tomorrow lunchtime he must board a twelve-hour flight to Japan, his first visit there since his stage debut twenty-three years earlier, and he sees little point in sleeping too much beforehand. So tonight is for poker. "There's few things that take my mind off of music, and I've found just sitting down and looking at cards does that," he says.
Commerce Casino, our destination, is, he says, "the biggest card room in the world." It is also where he would play most often before he became known as Bruno Mars. Usually he would come with his friend Mo, an insurance broker. This was just before the sport became so popular. "I used to pay my rent doing that shit," he says.
What's your style?
"I used to be like a loudmouth. You know the guy, people would want to take his money. If you do get them to lose, they're out for you, they're gunning for you. And that's when they're weak. And that's when you jump or pounce on them."
What's the most common mistake people make?
"Buying into my bullshit."
Mars remembers his first casino visit. He was 19, underage, and went to a casino two hours away in the mountains with Jeff Bhasker, now also a well-known pop producer but then in a cover band with Mars. (They were called Sex Panther.) "I remember my first bet, my hand was shaking," he says, "and a guy called me out on it and embarrassed me." Mars lost a hundred bucks, a hundred dollars he couldn't afford and had no business gambling with. "You gotta lose," he says. "You just have to lose to win, to understand."
We pull into the casino driveway, past some plaster giraffes, and park outside a hallway which leads past a chariot and four horses to the tables.
"Here we are!" he says. "Look at this! Class dot-com!"
Inside, the floor guys who work here greet him warmly, a face from the old days. When he speaks with anyone, he introduces me as his uncle from Switzerland. Each time he sees me jot down a note, he'll whisper to me, "You're going to get me killed in here."
He'll later tell me that he brought $3,400 here with him tonight. "A grown man should always carry cash, right?" he says. "I don't know who told me, but someone told me that a long time ago, and the biggest turnoff is when a guy doesn't have cash on him." At his allotted table, he slips this cash to be exchanged for chips so discreetly that I don't even see him do it. (It's a $600 minimum to buy in on a table like this, but as he told me in the car, "most guys buy in for four grand, so if you buy in for the $600 you're basically just Nemo.") I notice that the dealer calls him Peter, though Mars doesn't realize this and will seem surprised afterward when I point it out. "I didn't hear that. Really? Wow. That's like in school. Or when I'm in trouble."
Play on this table seems careful. "There's no gamblers here," he complains quietly to me after a while. "It's tight. Not my style at all. Nobody's drunk." Sometime in the second hour he loses a big hand for several thousand dollars that he felt sure he would win, but he accepts the loss with equanimity. As the clock passes three o'clock, then four o'clock, he makes new deadlines with himself to get up from the table—three forty-five, four fifteen—but each of them passes by. Though I like it here, he keeps apologizing. "The sicko wouldn't leave the table...." he says. I don't think he is so much trying to make his money back—though bit by bit, with some quiet, aggressive play, he does so. It's more that he is waiting for that one great satisfying hand.
But another huge face-off never happens, and he has enough discipline not to push it. Finally, a little after five in the morning, he picks up his chips and cashes out. The last hour has been one of slow but steady accumulation, and he leaves the casino with $5,070 in cash.
On the way out, we pass the casino shop, Moiselle Menswear, where they sell all kinds of gaudy stuff that might appeal to a temporarily flush cardplayer. Mars tells me about the time he was gambling with his friend Mo, about six months before his career took off, and had won about $600. "I was, 'Let's do some dumb shit, let's go to that pimp store over there,' " he says. He'd just cut his hair, and he was finding it weird walking around with less weight on his head than he was used to. That was when he saw the hat—a gray fedora. It was his first fedora, the very hat that helped launch a pop career. "The one you see in every video."
Eventually it began to fall apart.
"It's in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame," he says.
(He's bluffing. It's actually in his mother's house back in Hawaii.)
In the car, Mars holds up a crumpled packet of cigarettes he has pulled out of his pocket. "That sums up our night," he sighs. He points out the shapes of the canary palm trees against the early-morning sky and says how much he likes them. He shows me the apartment on Mansfield he rented for $650 a month when he first arrived in town. "It was pretty rough," he says. For him, Los Angeles took some settling into. "I think it was just a culture shock. Coming from Hawaii, this was a whole 'nother thing. It's so much faster than where I'm from. We don't got billboards in Hawaii. I remember I was freaking out about that for a long time."
He says that he expects to retire back to Hawaii eventually. "On a beach," he says, "drinking out of a coconut, watching some kids running around in the sand, looking at the ocean..." He laughs. "And then planning a reunion tour, overweight."
On a wall in his Hollywood Hills home, Mars has a large blowup of Frank Sinatra's youthful mug shot, taken when Sinatra was 22, staring with bright-eyed defiance at the police camera. "That was the first art piece I bought," Mars says. "Look how cool he looks. He got arrested for adultery, I think. Something like that." I ask Mars what he likes about the image. "He's wearing a fucking suit," says Mars, "and his hair's just slicked back." He laughs. "The exact opposite of my mug shot."
In his, Mars is wearing a red-checked shirt, open to show the gold chain around his neck, and the camera flash shines back off the sweat on his forehead, and his mouth is open in a strange kind of grin. It doesn't look like a grin of contempt or even of devil-may-care insouciance—more one of someone who doesn't quite know what is happening but is still hoping to be everyone's friend.
Do you remember what you were thinking when they took it?
" 'Fuck!' " he says. "Man, there were so many thoughts running through my mind."
Why are you smiling in the photo?
"I have no idea," he says, then laughs before offering the funniest, most poignant answer someone who had just become a pop star could give to this particular question: "It was a picture."

It was the second loss of the season to the Governors from the Ohio Valley Conference. The Bisons lost 6-4 in Clarksville April 7.
Both teams substituted liberally with 36 players entering the game, including 11 pitchers. Austin Peay used 19 players. The Bisons played 17.
Austin Peay scored one run in the fourth, three runs in the fifth, two in the sixth and three in the seventh.
The Bisons struck first in the game with one run in the third inning. With two outs Ryan Wilson reached base on a bunt single. Branden Cadavid singled to the shortstop and was thrown out at second while Wilson scored.
In the seventh the Bisons added four more in the seventh. Allen Bolden singled through the right side to start the inning. He went to second on passed ball. Tennyson Dodd was hit by a pitch. Logan Hostettler hit a ground out to the shortstop, but moved Bolden and Dodd up a base. Antonio Butler singled to center to score both Bolden and Dodd. With two outs Cadavid drove a double down the left field line to bring Butler and Wilson home.
The Bisons added one more in the eighth inning. Bolden opened the inning with a high pop up that Austin Peay's shortstop could not get a handle on as it fell to earth. Dodd slammed a double down the left field line that moved Bolden to third. Chandler Wicks grounded out to second, but Bolden scored on the play.
Cadavid had a team-high three runs batted in. He also had two hits for his 15th multi-hit game of the season. Butler posted his eighth multiple-RBI game, tying him for second on the team in that category.
Dodd extended his hitting streak to 12 games, his longest of the season and the second longest on the team. Cadavid has a six-game hitting streak.
The Bisons used five pitchers in the game. Davey Hackett started and threw five innings, his longest outing of the season. He allowed eight hits and four runs, all earned. He walked two and struck out three.
Charles Williams threw one inning, striking out one batter. Josh Cotham also pitched one inning, but gave up three hits and two runs, both earned. He struck out one. Jerry Young threw two-thirds of an inning. He allowed three runs, none of them earned. He did not give up a hit, but he walked one and struck out two. Jordan Baron closed out the game and did not give up a hit or a run in the final 1.1 innings.
Hackett (0-3) was credited with the loss. Austin Peay used six pitchers with Jeremy Dobbs (3-3) earning the win.
The Bisons are 21-30 overall. Austin Peay is 21-28.

NEWARK — Ten years ago, wrestling was the only sport at De La Salle High that had not won a North Coast Section championship. Now the Spartans are the gold standard with five straight team titles after winning Saturday at Newark Memorial High.
"Our coach tells us that we need to continue the streak and continue our legacy of a strong program coming up in the state," Aaron Pease said moments after winning the 170-pound championship. "He tells us every day that we want to get better and that even if we win a match we have something to prove."
The Spartans had faltered in the finals before Pease took the mat. Top-seeded Nathan Cervantes lost 1-0 in overtime to Freedom's Ricky Coster, the No. 2 seed, at 120 pounds, then top-seeded 145-pounder Payton Russum was upset by Nico Lange of Livermore — again in overtime — 3-2.
It was Pease's turn to set an example.
Pease never trailed against Liberty's Tanner Blank in posting a tough 5-2 victory.
De La Salle's five-year run might have sparked some backlash. The ovation was sizable when Lange beat Russum.
Lange had gone ahead 2-1 with a reverse with 45 seconds left, then Russum got away for an escape with five seconds left in the third round, leading to overtime. Lange scored an escape in the first overtime period, then had top position in the second overtime. He kept a viselike grip on Russum's hands, never letting the Spartan get away.
"Wrestling is all about hand control and positioning," Lange said. "I really tried to emphasize that in this match because he's a funky dude and can catch people. I just tried to stay as solid as possible."
Tyler Rardon became Livermore's first two-time NCS champion with a 5-3 victory over Rancho Cotate's Joe Clay at 152.
"Last year was my first time so it was sweet, but this year, I looked up the history, and we've never had a two-time NCS champion," Rardon said. "I did that today, and I'm looking forward to state and making a statement there."
That started a run of five straight victories by the East Bay Athletic League. Granada's Kyle Campiotti (160) routed Healdsburg's Dominic Merlo 10-1, followed by the De La Salle titles by Pease and Devon Aiello at 182 pounds.
Las Lomas' Dylan Walsh, the top seed at 285 pounds, wrapped up the title with a 3-1 victory over Jacob Clausen of Newark Memorial, and American freshman Jared Luty scored a stunning upset, beating top-seeded Perez Perez of Windsor — ranked as high as third by the California Wrestler — 12-6 in the 103-pound final.

text: Founded in 1925, the "Schutzstaffel," German for "Protective Echelon," initially served as Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler's (1889-1945) personal bodyguards, and later became one of the most powerful and feared organizations in all of Nazi Germany. Heinrich Himmler (1900-45), a fervent anti-Semite like Hitler, became head of the Schutzstaffel, or SS, in 1929 and expanded the group's role and size. Recruits, who had to prove none of their ancestors were Jewish, received military training and were also taught they were the elite not only of the Nazi Party but of all humankind. By the start of World War II (1939-45), the SS had more than 250,000 members and multiple subdivisions, engaged in activities ranging from intelligence operations to running Nazi concentration camps. At the postwar Nuremberg trials, the SS was deemed a criminal organization for its direct involvement in war crimes.

Product Description
22310E/VA405 KOYO Spherical Roller Bearing has a high load rating and self-aligning ability, therefore it is suitable for applications at low/medium speed which involve heavy load and impact.
22310E/VA405 KOYO Spherical Roller Bearing comprises of barrel-shaped convex rollers arranged diagonally. Due to the raceway of its housing raceway washer being spherical, this bearing is self-aligning and can allow a certain degree of angle tilt.
22310E/VA405 KOYO Spherical Roller Bearing for all bearings used in a wide variety of fields, including cars, motorcycles, electric machinery, machine tools, aerospace equipment, OA equipment and other general industrial machinery.
22310E/VA405 KOYO Spherical Roller Bearing are suitable for low/medium speed applications which involve heavy or impact loading. They come with cylindrical or tapered bores and can be supplied with adapter assemblies as well as withdrawal sleeves.These bearings are divided into R, RH(R) and RHA types, which differ in internal structure. Bearings with a tapered bore can be fit and removed easily using an adapter assembly or withdrawal sleeve.The ratio of the taper is identical among all bearing series:
240 and 241 series: 1:30 (supplementary code "K30")
Others: 1:12 (supplementary code "K").Spherical roller bearings are available as double-row, combination radial and thrust bearings. They use a spherical or crowned roller as the rolling element. The race in the outer ring is spherical in shape, which allows for some misalignment of the shaft and the housing. Spherical roller bearings are unequalled in their capacity for high loads and their tolerance to shock loads, but have limited speed capabilities. They perform consistently, even under extreme conditions, such as application-specific stress and marginal lubrication. The cage of a spherical roller bearing provides high dimensional accuracy and functionality. According to some estimates, spherical roller bearings have twice the running life of conventional bearings.Most spherical roller bearings are made of alloy steels or low-carbon steels. Chrome-plated products are also available. Some applications require the use of case-hardened or through-hardened, high-carbon, bearing-quality steel. High-carbon grades of steel do not require carburizing and can be case-hardened by induction heating or through-hardened by conventional heating methods. When low-carbon, carburized grades of steel are used, carbon is introduced after the spherical roller bearings are machined to a depth sufficient to produce a hardened case that can sustain bearing loads. The addition of carbon and alloys ensures the proper combination of a hard, fatigue-resistant case and a tough, ductile core.Bore size and outside diameter (OD) are important specifications to consider when selecting spherical roller bearings. The bore size is the bearing's smallest dimension. The outer diameter includes the bearing housing, but excludes the flange. Other important specifications for spherical roller bearings include overall width, rated speed (oil), static axial load, static radial load, dynamic axial load, and dynamic radial load. Static axial and static radial loads are, respectively, the maximum axial and radial loads that bearings can withstand without permanent deformation. Dynamic axial and dynamic radial loads are, respectively, the calculated axial and radial loads under which a group of identical bearings with stationary outer rings can endure for a rating life of 1 million revolutions of the inner ring.The R-type spherical roller bearing (two piece finger type) is contributing to a quiet operation by reducing the vibration. Our spherical roller bearings are also available with the following options:
Machined bronze retainer which is ideal for higher speed operation and ensures better performance under marginal lubrication conditions.
Asymmetrical roller design, which reduces sliding friction and has less tendency for roller skew while operating (R & RR types); this type uses two sets of convex asymmetrical rollers separated by a central inner ring rib.
Symmetrical roller design (RH Type Spherical Roller Bearing) with two rows of longer symmetrical roller and only a center guide ring instead of a rib.
R and RH Type Spherical Roller Bearings are also available with lubrication holes and grooves, which optimizes lubricant capability.
Self-alignment feature accommodates up to 2 misalignments.

Bearing SKF 22310E/VA405 feature:
1. Have high radial load capacity, especially suitable for heavy duty or vibration load work, but unable to bear pure axial load. This kind of bearing's outer ring raceway is spherical shape, so its self-aligning performance is good, can compensate for the coaxiality error.
2. There are two column symmetric type spherical roller, there is a common outer spherical raceway, inner ring have two and the bearing axis inclined Angle of the raceway, has the good self-aligning properties, when axial stress bending or install different heart bearing can still normal use, adjustable mind with bearing size series vary, general allowed by the self-aligning Angle for 1 ~ 2.5 degrees, this type bearing load capacity is larger, except can bear radial load outer bearing also can withstand the bidirectional axial load, and has good impact resistance ability, generally speaking self-aligning roller bearing are allowed to work rotational speed is low.
Bearing SKF 22310E/VA405 main application:
The papermaking machinery, speed reducer, railway vehicle axle, rolling mill gear box bearing, rolling mill roller, crusher, vibrating screen, printing machinery, woodworking machinery, all kinds of industrial deceleration machine, vertical set-contained spherical roller bearing.
Bearing SKF 22310E/VA405 (23180 CCW33/23180 CAW33) has two rows of spherical rollers between the sphered raceway in the outer ring and two inner rings raceways inclined at an angle to the bearing axis. Due to the arc center of the raceways in the outer ring and the bearing center are in the same direction, as a result, shaft flexing and misalignment of the bearing seats are compensated. Spherical roller bearing can support axial forces in both directions and high radial forces. They are designed for very high load carrying capacity. Bearings with a tapered bore are also available with an adapter sleeve, locknut and tab washer or with a withdrawal sleeve. When shaft bends by force which causes the inclined between the center of inner ring and the center of outer ring, if the inclined degree not exceed 1-2.5,the bearing can work normally.

BRONSON-Manatee Springs won a reprieve in the legal battle by White Construction to operate a limestone mining operation within two miles of the springs, something prohibited by a 2002 Levy County ordinance.
And, at the same time, the county may recoup its legal fees in the case.
County Attorney Anne Bast Brown informed Levy County Commissioners on Tuesday that Judge David A. Glant of the Eighth Judicial Circuit had ruled in the county's favor in state court for their denial of a permit for the operation in March 2004.

Miller allows five runs as Cardinals drop opener
MIAMI -- In a series opener between clubs in the thick of the postseason hunt, the Cardinals turned to right-hander Shelby Miller -- fresh off three solid outings since returning to the rotation following the All-Star break.

MIAMI -- In a series opener between clubs in the thick of the postseason hunt, the Cardinals turned to right-hander Shelby Miller -- fresh off three solid outings since returning to the rotation following the All-Star break.
Miller allowed five runs, including a pair of homers to Giancarlo Stanton, as the Cardinals' comeback fell short in a 6-5 loss to the Marlins on Monday night in front of 21,144 at Marlins Park.View Full Game Coverage
With the defeat, St. Louis sits three games back in the National League Central and behind the Pirates as the second Wild Card, half a game ahead of the Giants. The Cardinals have dropped three of their last four.
In his previous three starts, Miller (8-9) had given up just five runs over 18 2/3 frames. He exited after five innings and 92 pitches (58 strikes), permitting eight hits -- five for extra bases -- with two walks and five strikeouts.
"I made some pitches at times, but when it came down to their best hitter on their team I throw two of the worst pitches I've probably thrown all night, and you can't do that," Miller said. "That's a guy who sees mistakes and does a good job of hitting those kind of pitches. He's leading the league in home runs, and there's the reason why. He's got a lot of power, he's a great hitter and I didn't help myself at all throwing those pitches right down the middle."
St. Louis was unable to capitalize on right-hander Tom Koehler's wildness in the first. After two of the first three batters walked, Matt Adams and Jhonny Peralta both flied out to end the threat.
In the bottom half with the infield in, Miller surrendered a two-run opposite-field homer to Stanton -- his 30th of the season -- on a 95-mph fastball. Christian Yelich had led off with a double and moved to third on Jordany Valdespin's sacrifice bunt.
Stanton struck again with two outs in the third, blasting a 2-2 pitch off Miller for a solo shot that hit the operable wall in left-center on a bounce.
It marked the second time this year Miller allowed a multi-homer game to an opponent. Pedro Alvarez connected on two April 4 in Miller's first start against the Pirates. He has now given up 17 on the season, most in the Cardinals' rotation.
When Casey McGehee followed with a double, pitching coach Derek Lilliquist and assistant athletic trainer Chris Conroy visited the mound to check on Miller. He remained in the game without needing to toss any warmup pitches.
The Cardinals rallied with three two-out runs -- two on first-pitch swings -- in the fourth to tie things up at 3.
Matt Holliday broke up the no-hitter with a leadoff double to right-center for one of his four hits, snapping a string of eight straight batters retired. After consecutive strikeouts, A.J. Pierzynski produced an RBI single to left and Jon Jay knocked a two-run homer to right for his third of the season.
Despite entering Monday with the fewest dingers in the NL, the Cardinals have now homered in five straight games tying their single-season high for consecutive games.
Miami responded with two runs in the bottom half on Adeiny Hechavarria's RBI triple to right that drove in Jarrod Saltalamacchia, who singled with one out. Miller struck Koehler out looking but Yelich singled up the middle to tack on an insurance run.
After chasing Koehler with back-to-back singles in the sixth, the Cardinals were unable to trim the deficit against righty Chris Hatcher. Jay flied out to shallow center, Oscar Taveras grounded out to Hatcher and pinch-hitter Daniel Descalso grounded out to third.
"We're playing a team that's fighting to win the division and get to the playoffs, just like we are, so you gotta make plays," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said. "It comes down to getting big hits and making plays."
Miami extended the lead to 6-3 in the seventh when lefty Sam Freeman threw a wild pitch with runners at first and second. The ball quickly bounced back to Pierzynski, whose throw to third rolled into the outfield, allowing Yelich to race home.
Kolten Wong, who was robbed of extra bases in the fifth by Stanton's diving catch at the warning track, hit an RBI triple out of his reach in the ninth and scored on Holliday's RBI single before closer Steve Cishek preserved the win by striking out Adams.
"These guys are making plays left and right," Wong said. "A bunch of those plays don't happen and this is a different ballgame. They're also hitting the ball really well. You're seeing Stanton go up there playing unreal. It was just one of those games that was tough for us."
A game after setting a season high in hits (17) and recording the most runs (eight) in more than a week, the Cardinals outhit the Marlins 12-11 yet fell short in the run column. They also left eight men on base. St. Louis dropped to 47-12 when outhitting the opponent.
"In these close games it all comes down to those little fundamentals that make the difference but overall I thought our guys went about it taking some real nice at-bats," manager Mike Matheny said. "We had plenty of hits, they just got bigger ones. They went further."
