Crit slam wouldn't have any effect on the damage, but combo-strike is an interesting idea. A Defender dies in one shot to a POW 48 hit, since it has 30 boxes, or a POW 39 delivered with armor piercing. Of those, you can account for 18 points with straight sixes on a boosted punch, or 24 with brutal/weapon master/etc.
Assuming crit brutal but replacing AP with combo strike, we get needing POW 24 on the combo strike. Now, Behemoth is STR 12 and it's unlikely for Conquest to be weaker. If Conquest *is* str 12, he'd need P+S 18 on his fists to hit 24 on the combo strike. This is well within reason. Without crit brutal, you'd be looking at P+S 21 fists, also within reason given the incredibly high point cost and major downsides of these things.
This is an elegant solution, and I like it. Well spotted.
I want it to have good interaction with a lot of casters. By the sounds of it, colossals count as a battlegroup model but not as a warjack. So you can boundless charge or energizer it, but not put superiority on it, etc etc.
However if it has some special rules that make it useful for some of the casters that can't offer assistance to the above, then great. As it stands, I actually like it with eVlad better than pVlad because in this case you're only upkeeping hand of fate on it rather than spending 4 focus for Signs and Portents each turn. And pVlad's feat won't work on it, whereas eVlad's feat will help your infantry protect the Conquest.
eButcher could put ravager on it, but I don't see it hitting often unless it has some in-built way to increase accuracy for example. I would like every caster to be able to take a conquest in a 35 point game (or even less) and provide it with some help.

No Quarter #41, Page 37
"NQ: What makes colossals different than warjacks?
JS: I'd like to start off by saying that colossals are warjacks-just really, really big ones."
Let's all mod our Conquests to be dancing with the Behemoth.
Crit slam affects the damage if there's a wall/obstruction (or equal/larger based model) behind the model you slam. One additional die. The rest of the maths works out like you said. Assuming S 12 and P 6 for a P+S 24 combostrike and 24 for four dice of slam gives you the 48 damage to one shot the Defender... but in a way that seems much more balanced to me. A Marauder with Fury could do this already.
It's been mentioned that Collosals get an extra 2" on throw/slam distances to reflect their size. If they had much higher S than normal this rule wouldn't be needed. So I think S 12 is reasonable.
Adding in constraints like something to slam against complicates the solution, and we're aiming for maximum simplicity. In any event, P+S 21 isn't out of the question - it's only 2 above a juggernaut or Beast 09, and I'm fairly certain all of the colossals will hit like a truck. Combo strike is especially interesting on them since it's self-nerfing in the sense that colossals have to work with weapon arcs like battle engines do, which means combo strike will only work on something the colossal has carefully lined up its center line with, so it's inherently more balanced than it looks at first glance.
The released information on the Kraken and the Stormwall implies that they'll be incredible at clearing infantry, very reasonable at clearing enemy lights, and will likely need their entire activation to kill an enemy heavy. I'm excited about the fact that Conquest is probably going to be the best at trying to wipe an enemy colossal in one activation.
I agree with you on the Conquests' probable "role" but I still wonder just how much melee power it'll get over, for example, Behemoth (or even a Juggernaut). It's got a lot of guns and in WM, guns cost. My mind always goes back to the Destroyer. Take a seven point Jug, drop it's P+S by 2, downdrage it's crit and strip off its secondary weapon (a fist, allowing certain power attack options). What you've got left must be 6 points maximum. So the bombard is "worth" 3 points. Given that the bombard is strictly worse than a winterguard mortar stat-wise (lower range, lower POW, smaller AOE) some of that extra cost must be simply because it's on a jack platform (and that's fair enough). Now look at the guns all over a Conquest. Those will eat like crazy into the 18-20 points we'll be paying for it. So will it's extra resilience, immunity to many of the usual "stalling" tactics like KD or disruption. So will its new power attacks. It's going to be good in melee, no doubt very good, but I don't think it's going to be in a whole new territory of destructiveness.
No No the cannon ontop shoots the bears weild axes 14 inches with arcing fire ... who let the warhammer gobles design that... and has special attack were it picks up light jacks and uses them like baseball bats (special rule) if light jack has an arc node the warcaster using conquest in his battle group gaines us of that arc node
I can't imagine 'elsewhere' has more authority on the matter than PP themselves. They've been saying since Day 1 of the Colossals video that Colossals are warjacks and part of the battlegroup. The only thing they're limited by is the fact that they can only move during their activation.
Me and a buddie talked over the ideas behind the Colossals. I think they are designed to kill infantry. Tons of low pow shots so that players go jack heavy to fight them. Think about what each of them is equipped with!
I fixed your post, and now i agree with it lol
im sure they will kill troops very well, but for the same or less points i can take 2 WGI squads, 1 UA and Widdowmakers, and wipe infantry out like crazy. Unless the Conquest has some kinda Rain of Death (thatd be awesome, tho unlikely) hes gonna see most of his use against other jacks. Those huge fists arent gonna be low P+S unless they have AP, and those guns are just to keep people occupied untill im close enough to hammerfist them.
I'm not expecting over arm 21. Armor and lots of hit point has a multiplicative effect, if he has armor in the 23ish + range an army that isn't specifically designed to kill a model with arm 23 ~ 70 hp just won't be able to deal with it.
On a related note, I'm worried about galleon. Broadsides Bart with Batten Down the Hatches, and Spiney Growth, ick. If that thing is arm 19, +3, + 2 = arm 24. Your ice axe is at dice - 5 and you take d3 damage every time you hit me.

im hoping this stat/ability line
Main Gun: RNG 14 AOE 5 ROF 2 POW 15
Devastating Explosion: the AOE from this attack creates rough terrain and does not expire.
When target model is hit center a 6" spray at the edge of the models base in line from this model.
all models under the spray are hit and suffer a pow 12 damage roll.
Each time this model makes an attack with this weapon, models within 2" are pushed 3" directly away and are Knocked down.
Innate abilities:
LEFT/RIGHT arms are thresher attacks
only if this came true .... QQ
I think things like this are a positive for this game actually. I would hate to think they are designing these things thinking they have to make it so a majority of models can hurt it every swing. I think if you aren't bringing something to crack armor then you built your list poorly. how are you going to hurt a caster camping focus? Same thing with def 19 assassins, need some answer or you will have problems.
I'm hoping for at least arm 22.
I respectfully disagree. Its not possible to account for everything as it is now when list building. If I had to take out something with armor 23 and around 70 HP I would have to build specifically FOR it, not just include things that can crack armor. 3 charging Juggernauts (with 9 focus! or a feat that grants a free charge, and 2 focus each) can hardly scratch that much armor.
Each Juggernaut is hitting at dice minus 4. The charge will on average do 6.5, the fist will do nothing, then each additional attack will do and average of 3. So with 3 Juggernauts you are averaging 31.5 damage. No to mention the juggernauts would be taking fire from those guns on the way in. If we were to reduce the armor down to 21, the charge would net you an expected 8.5 damage, and each additional would net you 5 damage. for a total of 55.5 damage. Still not scraping it, but seemingly much more reasonable for the focus and point investment.
This sort of numbers inflation is BAD for the game. How can people build lists to account for not just high armor and high def, but rediculously high def, like 19, and ridiculously high armor, like 23 with 70 boxes, deal with incorporeal and on and on. You break the game down in to rock paper scissors at list selection. The reason why warmachine is so dynamic, is because most models are capable of dealing meaningful damage to most other models in this game. We already hate it that there is dead weight in faction, this just adds to it because pow 19, and mat 6 is useless against everything, instead of some things.
I don't want colossals to become pieces you must have to compete, and arm stupid will do that.
Just editing to say, I already feel constrained enough in my model selection, I don't want it to get worse. It ideally it should be about how you play, not what you play, so long as you're running a balanced list.
I'm not excited about conquest because I think it will break the game with durability. I'm excited about conquest because the behemoth is my favorite jack, because of its guns, and I'm looking forward to having another option, especially a non-character one, to bring some serious ranged fire power to my games.

To be fair if it has most of the BE rules then you can CRA this thing in virtually any situation. I foresee Longgunner POW 20 double taps making a comeback.
But yeah, the armor isn't a problem, it's having x2 grids that's the problem. You can throw everything at an ARM 25 Devastator if you really want to and maybe kill it, but I can't think of many reasonable armies that can do that twice in one turn.
( PS Ragman + Conquest = lulz )
That may be, but pButcher, Behemoth and 2 zerkers can scrap one with arm 22 and two FULL grids (72 boxes) in one turn.
Allow me to explain (this happens to be the plan i will use for fighting enemy collosals, feel free to use it)
This "simulation" does not assume anything above average rolls; ie all 3's and 4's
Full Throttle for 3 focus, 3 focus on Big-B, Butchers feat turn
Zerkers charger: 2 attacks ea (Mat5, +3 Dice (full throttle), avg roll:3,3,4. Hit on both, 4 hits total)
Damage: 1st Initial. P+S 16+4dice (charge, feat), avg roll:3,3,4,4. 30dam. minus armor 22. 8 damage*
2nd Initial. P+S 16+3dice (just feat), avg roll:3,3,4. 26dam. minus armor 22. 4 damage*
*12 damge from each zerker, 24 total so far
Big-B's Turn: 5 Attacks (2 initial, +3 from focus), Mat 6, avg rolls (initial):3,3,4 Both hit, bonus attacks: 3,4, all 3 hit (5 hits total)
Damage: P+S12 AP +4dice (charge feat), avg roll:3,3,4,4. 26 dam. minus armor 11(from AP). 15 damage*
next 4 hits, P+S12 AP +3dice (just feat), avg roll:3,3,4. 22dam. minus armor 11(from AP). 11damage/hit. so times 4 hits: 44 damage*
*59 damage from Big-B
Total damage: 83. yes thats assuming all the attacks hit, but if these things have def10 like battle engines then yeah, youll hit.
Also this assumed all rolls were 3's and 4's, so its not guaranteed, but on the other end, Behemoth couldve killed one himself if he'd rolled 5's and 6's in this situation.
So your saying that if you play the caster in the game with more damage buffs than any other I can think of off the top of my head, with one of the best single target damage out puts in the game, and another 12 points in other warjacks, and use his feat you can kill conquest? So you essentially had to devote 23 points worth of models, and your casters feat, and your full focus load to kill a model that is between 18 and 20 points?
I feel like you're proving my point for me. The other 10 faction in this game don't have a model with armour peircing as a weapon quality to be paired with an additional damage die.
My point is not that it is invincible, but that it makes things like 30 points worth of stromclads, which are cygnar's best armor cracking jack, essentially impotent versus it massive damage grid and armor rating.
Or another example, efeora and avatar and a bonded templar.
Avater rolls 4 for focus, starts the round with ignite on it, 4 focus allocated to the Templar, and both are infused by the choir.
Avatar charge at pow 23 dice damage ~ 10.5
Three additional attacks at dice damage ~ 21
Fist pow 18 now I think? ~ 2
Total 33.5
feora activates, takes a focus from wracks and cycles ignite to the Templar
templar charges pow 21 dice minus 2 ~ 8.5
Three additional attacks ~15
Fist pow 18 now I think? ~2
Total 25.5
Total 58 damage for 22 points worth of models, with a cycle of a damage buff, and all of a casters focus. This is also an extreme best case scenario, with a group of warjacks that can be buffed and allocated focus way above what most casters are capable of.
Its not something that what we now consider a balanced all comers list could handle. Meta shifts with new releases, but in this cast conquest would be nearly an auto include, unless he was super pillow fisted and his guns sucked.
EDIT: I didn't realize that in your above post you were working with an arm 22 conquest. IF you bump you conquest up to arm 23, it still should die with 74 damage received. IF you bump my conquest down to 22 arm he still lives taking 68 damage.

Alright, now could you do it the other way? Make a 50 point list with a Conquest (20 points) in it. I would like to see how much fire and other abilities it will take before it gets close.
Looking forward to Epic Vlad on his Battle Cattle.
I don't understand you question.

Write a list which includes the conquest in it. As a long term imperial guardsman player, I know how being outnumbered is a huge weakness in many cases.
Looking forward to Epic Vlad on his Battle Cattle.
Nate, it's seems like you want to be able to scrap one in a single activation. Don't you think that these should be something that takes more than 2 jacks going all out on to kill in one turn? For the points and size, it has to be able to hold up to punishment for more than a turn or no one will dish out $135 for it outside of painters.
I can't think of a single list I run that can't crack 23 arm, 70 boxes if I really had to.
And really, if I'm not able to, then I should have enough quick models on the board to have a nice go at a caster kill since 18-20 points of my enemy is tied up in one model.
And honestly, this all makes me think of how many times I've had a closed devastator get scrapped. Arm 22-23 is not as invincible as you make it sound.
Either way PP has their hands full getting these things balanced between worth the money and worth fielding. Not many khador seem to run two jacks as it is. To have one jack that is easier to hit, harder to move around the field and cost just as much seems a little iffy if it doesn't do something worth it, or able to take the attention it will get. I hope they do us right
pVlad -5
Conquest 20
Full Winterguard everything + joe 13
Full kayazy + ua 10
Greylord Ternion 4
Min Mechanics 2
Saxon Orrick
Widowmaker Marksman or Kell Bailoch
39 Models
In steamroller I would pair it with my typical pIrusk list
Full Nyss + Valachev
Full Kayazi + UA
The Bears
Lady A and Master H
37 models
I'd feel pretty confidant with the pVlad list. Conquest would be a legit assaination threat even with rat 4 under vlads feat, and S&P, like the behemoth is now. That list has alot of ranged firepower, and a few sources of magical attacks. You could also play and allow conquest to get hit first by an enemy heavy, then mess them up with rag man and S&P.
Kayazy and WGI are super legit with vlad.

Its not that I want them to be weak. In this game a models that are buffed and fully supported by a caster can normally kill an equal number of points especially when their targets are unbuffed. In all of the above examples, we have some examples of the highest damage capacity models in the game, ideally buffing models to take out single high arm targets, and just barely doing it with more points, or coming up short, under ideal conditions where they never miss an attack, get the highest random focus possible. Don't have their systems crippled by conquests guns on the way in, and two or more heavies get the charge in on conquest on the same turn.
In a real game its essentially if Conquest just walked forward and let them charge him, and he still lives, and depending on what his weapon load out is and where the damage falls kill one or more heavies.
I'll be the first to complain about overbalanced new releases since mark 2 hit, and I'm ready for PP to start releasing some crack back into the game. But arm 23+ with ~70 hit points in an auto include, unless, like a devastator, conquest is real weak on offense, and thats not what I want him to be.

Hmm interesting. I get a feeling that much of your list which isn't a conquest could get eaten by Cavalry and AOE's. but i dont like much theorycrafting like that.
My main point in asking you to do this was wondering. Your main point is that you can bring sufficient force to take down a conquest if you want. My thinking a Conquest takes up so much space in the list, what if the enemy force was free to use that force against it?
Looking forward to Epic Vlad on his Battle Cattle.
Nevermind. Im typing in lectures at the moment :P
Looking forward to Epic Vlad on his Battle Cattle.
So do we really think that the Colossal will be strength 12? I would think that they would be stronger than the average jack.
Should at minimum be strength 13. Bronzeback is strength 13 and he isn't a colossal. ><
I honestly expect that the colassals will share their stat line with a factions basic chassis. (I have no basis of knowledge for this). I then expect them to be made unique and worth their points through a combination of, rules generic to colossals, massive damage grid, powerful weapon systems, and special rules unique to each colossal.
In conquests case I expect 3 good guns (possibly with sweet effects like "all models in aoe take x power hit") and open fists with bucklers (making arm 21). We might get lucky and get better pow then normal on open fists, or a special rule that makes his fists not lackluster versus hard targets.
Again I have no basis for these speculations other than my own opinion of what I would pay 20 points for, and a healthy respect for game balance paired with a hope that we can start getting some new releases I can be excited for. I know some people don't miss mark 1, but back then I found new releases to be more exciting, though the game is better balanced now.

any reason this guy wouldn't be higher arm and lower def than standard... I mean all colossals for that matter. +2 arm over faction base and -2 def. Cygnar would be a 10/20 and ours would be a 8/22. I hope to god the menoth one can't be choired to not shoot it, but knowing what I know- it probably can.
I hope it has 2 pow 19 fists, with a strength of 15 for very good throws and slams. I hope the main gun is a huge AOE, 4 or 5 without being a focus hog. The other guns are probably going to be just fire and forget weapons that aren't much to write home about... just something you also fire.
It will probably get to shoot and melee or make power attacks all in the same turn.
I hope it is not just very plain without cool special rules other than the colossals rules- but again I am probably wrong.
I hope it can bulldoze, and stomp with tremor for knocking down models in 2". beatback on the fists would be nice too.
My name is Kommander Oleg Strakhov, and I'm putting together a special team. And I need me eight soldiers. Eight khadoran soldiers. Now y'all might have heard rumors about the armada happening soon. Well, we'll be leavin' a little earlier. We're gonna be dropped into Thornwood, dressed as trenchers. And once we're in enemy territory, as a bushwackin' guerilla army, we're gonna be doin' one thing, and one thing only: Killin' Cygnus.
Also, I'm hoping Conquest has a built-in whiskey still.
Ah. My life is one of bitter disappointment!

23mm Composite Rose Bead/Cabochon, Charcoal.
This 1" grey composite rose bead has a hole drilled through it, so you can use it in beaded bracelet and necklace designs, or create wire wrapped earrings and rings. It also has a flat back, so you can use it as a cabochon and glue it to filigree pieces, select glue-in and glaze products and even use a glue-on bail to create a simple pendant.

Great Quality
Very pleased with this rose! I ordered a similar one from another bead supply online and the quality was NOT as good as the one Auntie's has. The back of this rose is very smooth and the quality is just great! The size is between the size of a dime and a quarter. The grey is a bit darker in person but I love it.

I unexpectedly like this color more than I thought I would. In real light it has a great shade. It really looks nice with the other rose colors, giving them a chance to really shine.

Holiday Meal PreparationThe Alexandria Health Department presents these "Top 10 Tips to Keep Your Holiday Dinner Safe." Tip 1: Wash Your HandsWash your hands frequently and thoroughly during food preparation and cooking activities, especially after you've handled raw meats or poultry. Tip 2: Prevent Cross-ContaminationStore raw meat and poultry in the bottom of your refrigerator where juices can't drip onto foods that will not be cooked. Wash your cutting boards, dishes, utensils and counter tops with hot soapy water after preparing each food item, and before you go on to the next food. Rinse with clean water, and then use a small amount of chlorine bleach mixed with water (1/2 tablespoon bleach per ½ gallon of water) on all surfaces. (Top) Tip 3: Homemade Egg NogRemember that raw eggs can carry dangerous bacteria like Salmonella. If you make your own egg nog, remember to use pasteurized eggs. Pasteurized eggs typically come as a liquid product in a carton similar to milk, but some stores also carry eggs that have been pasteurized in their shells. (Top) Tip 4: Frozen vs. Fresh Turkey, Duck or GooseFor frozen birds, allow at least 24 hours of thawing time for each 5 pounds of raw poultry. Thaw the bird in the refrigerator at 41°F or below in its original wrapping, never at room temperature, as warm temperatures promote bacterial growth. Other safe methods of thawing include: under cold running water that is 70°F or less, or in a microwave. (If you choose to microwave, you'll need to cook the bird right away.) The USDA advises that you cook a fresh bird within two days of purchase or freeze it.(Top) Tip 5: Preparation of PoultryRemove giblets from the bird cavity before cooking separately or discarding. Do not wash the bird. Studies have shown recently that the juices (and therefore harmful bacteria) can be spread up to four feet from your sink during the washing process. For optimum safety, stuffing the inside of a bird is not recommended. Ideally stuffing should be cooked separately and then checked to be sure that it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. If you do stuff your bird, make sure both the meat AND the stuffing reaches 165°F. (Top) Tip 6: Cooking TurkeyTo know if food has been thoroughly cooked, use a metal stem food thermometer to check the internal food temperature. For safety, cook the turkey until all internal temperatures reach 165°F.
(Top) Tip 7: Special Holiday MeatsThe USDA offer great advice on how to handle and roast holiday meats other than turkey or chicken. For information on cooking beef roasts, lamb, pork, ham, or venison visit: http://www.fsis.usda.gov/fact_sheets/Roasting_Those_Other_Holiday_Meats/index.asp (Top) Tip 8: CookingTo know if food has been thoroughly cooked, use a metal stem food thermometer to check the internal food temperature. For safety, cook poultry until all internal temperatures reach 165°F; cook beef and pork to 145°F. For ground meats, cook to 160°F. Visit http://www.fsis.usda.gov/fact_sheets/Roasting_Those_Other_Holiday_Meats/index.asp for more detailed information on cooking. (Top) Tip 9: LeftoversDon't leave perishable foods at room temperature - Keep hot foods hot (at least 135°F) and cold foods cold (41°F or below). Discard any leftovers that have been at room temperature for longer than 2 hours. Divide leftovers into small portions. Refrigerate or freeze in shallow containers for quicker cooling. Cooked foods should be cooled:
(Top) Tip 10: Reheating LeftoversThoroughly re-heat any leftovers to an internal temperature of 165°F. (Top) EnjoyBy following these simple tips, we hope that you will have a safe and enjoyable holiday! (Top) |

This is like the Gear Cube but they have made it even tougher. This one will have you stumped. Now you can change any piece with any other piece on the cube. A challenge you won't want to put down.

This puzzle is excellent. If you can solve the Gear Cube, you'll be ready to take a stab at the Gear Cube Extreme... but it really is much more difficult. It has fewer gears than the Gear Cube... in fact, the four non-geared edges allow you to make quarter-turns along one axis. But this actually makes the puzzle much, much more difficult. It combines the gearing fun of the Gear Cube with the ridiculous difficulty (mine said "12 out of 10" for difficulty on the box...) of other puzzles. Buy it to impress your friends and/or if you want a very difficult puzzle.

Dave Tippett calls break a double-edged sword
Originally published: Feb 20, 2013 - 12:30 pm
After their shutout victory over the Calgary Flames on Monday, the Coyotes have won six of their last nine.
"We had a couple good wins at home here before we head back on the road," coach Dave Tippett told Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo. "Hopefully (we can) go on the road and continue winning."
Tippett's team will enjoy the longest break they'll have all season before playing the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday afternoon to start a three-game road trip.
The coach called this break a gift and a curse for the Coyotes, as it's nice to have rest in a tightened 48-game season but can hurt them in the points standings.
"This week is going to be torture watching other teams play, so we better take care of ourselves," Tippett said.
Tippett said the Coyotes will utilize the time off recharging their batteries and working on the small things on both sides of the ice.
"We're going to a lot of defensive work," Tippett said. "[Thursday] will be more of a skill day and get some guys treated."
Phoenix travels to Edmonton for a 1:30 p.m. game on Saturday.

The UCSC Genes track shows gene predictions based on data from RefSeq, Genbank, CCDS and UniProt. This is a moderately conservative set of predictions, requiring the support of one GenBank RNA sequence plus at least one additional line of evidence. The RefSeq RNAs are an exception to this, requiring no additional evidence. The track includes both protein-coding and putative non-coding transcripts. Some of these non-coding transcripts may actually code for protein, but the evidence for the associated protein is weak at best. Compared to RefSeq, this gene set has generally about 10% more protein-coding genes, approximately five times as many putative non-coding genes, and about twice as many splice variants.
This track in general follows the display conventions for gene prediction tracks. The exons for putative noncoding genes and untranslated regions are represented by relatively thin blocks, while those for coding open reading frames are thicker. The following color key is used:
This track contains an optional codon coloring feature that allows users to quickly validate and compare gene predictions. To display codon colors, select the genomic codons option from the Color track by codons pull-down menu. Click here for more information about this feature.

June 19 – Happy Birthday Doug Mientkiewicz
When I was a kid, pick-up baseball games were commonplace. Back then, there seemed to be at least ten guys you could call at any time of day or night to meet up for a game. You'd decide where to play based on the total number of kids who showed up. Four man sides worked just fine in the old mill yard across from my Grandmother's house. It was a small area, boxed in by buildings on both sides and a huge green fully enclosed metal walking ramp that led from the third floor of the mill to the street level in dead center. That ramp served as our version of the "Green Monster." We also played in a Veterans' park at the western most end of our city, where a huge memorial with a life-sized bronze soldier standing guard at the top, served as both our center field wall and permanent spectator. Second base at the park was a cast iron silver painted urn that caused lots of bleeding injuries to both aggressive base runners and inattentive fielders.
When we could get eighteen guys together, we'd head down to the huge grass field that sat alongside one of the locks on the Mohawk River. Even back in the early sixties, when neighborhood kids use to actually play with each other, getting eighteen kids together was not easy and usually required a mixing of ages. That's why, whenever we'd play down by the river, there'd always be at least one "older" kid who was strong enough to drive a ball the three hundred or so feet that separated home plate from the then-pretty-polluted Mohawk. Every official home run down by the river was a "Walk-off" home run because it meant the ball needed to play the game was gone for good and everyone had to go home.
It was always a lack of a simple ball that disrupted many of those glorious contests during my childhood. After all, most kids brought their own gloves to these games and at least a couple of the guys would bring bats. Gloves and bats weren't perishable but those damn balls seemed to disappear in a hurry. That's why, the most serious offense any kid could commit was taking the game ball home with him before that game was actually over. We used to let guys from our neighborhood who didn't know a baseball bat from an umbrella play in those games simply because they owned a new baseball. Of course, the older guys who ran the games then pulled every trick in the book to prevent the talentless ball-owners from coming to bat or making a play in the field during the contest.
One of their favorite techniques was "No Ralph you're not up this time around, Joey is going to pinch hit for you." In those long ago games in the Veterans' park, I can remember kids being told to go play the field behind the huge memorial, where they would stare up at the butt of the huge bronze soldier waiting for a ball to fly over the huge granite edifice so they could retrieve it. Eventually, some of these persecuted ball-suppliers would get wise to the exploitation being put upon them and would grab their ball and go home. This of course was considered a mortal sin in our neighborhood, punishable by banishment from all future neighborhood sporting activities, sometimes for life, or at the very least until you showed up at one of these future events with the only ball again.
The above memories were the first things that flashed through my mind when I heard that today's Pinstripe Birthday Celebrant grabbed the game ball after the last out of the final game of the 2004 World Series and brought it home with him. Doug Mientkiewicz had replaced David Ortiz at first base for the Boston Red Sox earlier in that game which is why he caught pitcher, Keith Foulke's throw to first to end that contest and complete Boston's four-game sweep of the Cardinals in that Fall Classic. He then just kept the ball and took it home with him. When someone from the Red Sox eventually asked for it, Mientkiewicz refused to hand it over, explaining he could sell it for enough money to cover his own kid's college costs. Needless to say, that line did not go over to well with Red Sox Nation. He eventually agreed to loan the ball to the Red Sox.
Unfortunately for Mientkiewicz, keeping that ball will be what he's remembered for most. Even though he was one of baseball's best defensive first baseman during his 12-years in the big leagues and a Gold Glove winner, it will be the baseball he wouldn't give back that defines him.
Three years after the incident, the Yankees signed the player nicknamed "Eye Chart" to play first base so that Jason Giambi's porous glove could be removed from the lineup. He got into 72 games that year and hit a respectable .277. A broken wrist he suffered when Mike Lowell collided with him at first base disrupted his season and then he went hitless for New York during the 2007 postseason. The Yankees let him go and he signed with the Pirates the following year.
Mientkiewicz was a high school teammate of A-Rod's in Florida when their team won that state's baseball championship. He also won a Gold Medal as part of the US baseball team that beat Cuba in the 2000 Olympics. His last big league game was in a Dodger uniform in 2009. He retired with a .271 career average, 899 hits and that damn baseball. He also happens to share his birthday with another Yankee first baseman who I'm sure was the source of plenty of lost baseballs when he was a kid.

Comment posted Karl Hughes: impacts of the proposed Tiree Array and divorce from the natural world by Robert Wakeham.
Shame on anyone who condenses Great Northern Diver to GND – remember that, as an HB, you're two-a-penny compared with them.
Robert Wakeham also commented
- I don't believe you; what on earth are you talking about?
- Surely the only turbine that would produce optimum performance in any wind direction would be a 'standalone' rather than just one of an array.
- I wonder how many turbines in Scotland are underperforming due to 'wake effect' during the recent and continuing spell of winds from between north and east, rather than the prevailing southwesterlies that must have been factored into the tower layout studies?
Recent comments by Robert Wakeham
- Walsh to lead all but Lib Dems, Conservatives and George Freeman
I'm just wondering if this is a wild goose chase – barking up the wrong tree, so to speak – and it might be a creature of a different political colour altogether? - Walsh to lead all but Lib Dems, Conservatives and George Freeman
Talking of Conservatives, and bearing in mind the ornithological wonders of this part of the world, has anyone yet spotted a swivel-eyed loon? – or is it an imaginary creature? - First Minister's choice not to condemn mob behaviour proves Farage point
Farage was in Edinburgh to raise the profile of UKIP – don't underestimate wee Nige. - Walsh to lead all but Lib Dems, Conservatives and George Freeman
This reads uncannily like a description of Tommy Sheridan's erstwhile political buddies – although they, thank goodness, have never managed to grab the reins of power. - Finally, SNP Government delivers a passenger ferry capable of seeing off Western Ferries
There's a quite accurate measure of economic activity if you look around at where tower cranes signify construction in progress, and there are more in London than in the whole of the rest of Britain. Last autumn at a do in London I suggested to a senior Canary Wharf construction executive that London was increasingly behaving like a separate 'city state', with an economy that operated independently to that of the rest of Britain.
He was dismissive of this idea, but I'm not so sure.

Paclitaxel (Taxol) is an agent with antineoplastic properties that is derived from the bark of the Pacific yew tree, Taxus brevifolia. It has been shown to have activity against many tumors including lung, breast, and ovarian carcinomas. Its mechanism of action involves the induction of microtubular assembly and stabilization. Ultimately, this leads to cell death. In the past, the extravasation of paclitaxel has been known to have qualities considered to be similar to those of local irritants. Recent reports have suggested that its extravasation may cause vesicant reactions. Local venous effects including immediate or delayed reactions have been described. Patients have experienced local reactions including pain, swelling, erythema, induration, and hyperpigmentation, without ulceration. In this article, the authors report on a patient who experienced a delayed vesicant reaction to a paclitaxel extravasation that resulted in severe necrosis.
The patient in this report was a 53 year old woman with a history of stage IIB adenocarcinoma of the right breast. She was initially treated with breast conservation and adjuvant doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide for four cycles followed by tamoxifen. After three years of tamoxifen therapy, metastatic disease was detected in her lumbar and thoracic spine. Her treatment plan was for four cycles of paclitaxel in preparation for high-dose chemotherapy with peripheral blood cell transplant. The patient received 250 mg/m2 of paclitaxel (total dose 400 mg diluted in 1000 ml normal saline) infused over 24 hours through a peripheral line. She was premedicated with dexamethasone, diphenhydramine, and cimetidine as preventative measures against hypersensitivity reactions. No immediate reactions or complaints were reported during the infusion. However, two to three days later, the woman developed erythema and pain at the infusion site. Not seeking medical attention, by day 11 the pain had worsened, and two elliptically shaped necrotic areas, 1 x 4 cm in size were present, as well as a surrounding area of cellulitis with a central eschar region. Following debridement of the necrotic tissue, the patient was treated empirically with cephalexin and silver sulfadiazine. The wound was surgically closed. A culture obtained from the necrotic area on day 11 grew methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus and Peptostreptococcus asaccharolyticus. Histopathologic examination of a tissue sample showed ulceration with reactive granulation tissue, fat necrosis, and fibroblastic proliferation. When the necrotic area had resolved (day 32) the patient received a second course of paclitaxel through a central venous catheter without complications. The infusion wound site was completely healed by day 50.
At the current time, there is no antidote for the condition. Treatment is primarily palliative with the application of compresses (warming and/or cooling). Other case reports have described quicker resolution of symptoms with cooling alone when compared with the addition of hyaluronidase.
The authors recommend against prolonged paclitaxel infusions through peripheral lines due to the potential for necrosis if extravasated.

In the Tesla Turbine, air, steam, oil, or any other fluid is injected at the edge of a series of smooth parallel disks. The fluid spirals inwards and is exhausted through ventilation ports near the center of the disks.
A regular blade turbine operates by transferring kinetic energy from the moving fluid to the turbine fan blades. In the Tesla Turbine, the kinetic energy transfer to the edges of the thin platters is very small. Instead, it uses the boundary layer effect, i.e. adhesion between the moving fluid and the rigid disk. This is the same effect that causes drag on airplanes.
To build a turbine like this, you need some dead hard drives, some stock material (aluminum, acrylic), a milling machine with a rotary table, and a lathe with a 4 jaw chuck.
Wikipedia has a good review article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_turbine), as well as articles about
Nikola Tesla http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Tesla,
the boundary layer effect (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_layer),
and Reynolds number (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reynolds_number)
(which determines if the fluid flow is laminar or turbulent).
I run my turbine on compressed air (40 psi), and it easily reaches speeds of 10-15,000 rpm. While the speed is high, the torque is low, and it can be stopped with your bare hand.
I have more details on my webpage (http://staff.washington.edu/sbtroy/turbine/turbine.html).
Step 1: Make ventilation holes in the platters
The easiest way to make vent holes in the hard drive platters is with a milling machine and a rotary table. Center and clamp a stack of several platters to the rotary table and then you can cut any radially symmetric pattern fairly easily. Just be sure that you use aluminium platters because ceramic platters will shatter when you drill into them.
I made two sets of platters; one with a radial array of holes, and one with radial arcs. The platter with radial arcs in the picture was on the top of the stack and took the most damage. The platters beneath it have very little tear-out and look much better.
1-40 of 306 | Next » |
Because of energy loss from air escaping around the platters, friction from the bearings and other natural energy sinks, the inside platters exert more torque pressure than the outside ones (math stuffs go here for proof).
Good thing about this design is that you can use some "simple" thermodynamics to have a relatively low pressure, large area front condensed into a high pressure, small area front to get your air pressure from the wind for "free" (think of a properly tuned funnel) to drive an electrical generating motor thingy off of the axle with those new found magnetic thingies...
Maybe i missed something...
Thanks for the tuto.
This IS a stupidly designed device.
the air actually escapes thru the shaft hole.
The Tesla turbine relies on the boundary layer effect and centrifugal force. The air gets forced to the center and out the shaft hole. An exhaust port on the side would ruin the design of the turbine.
If you have a rotating plane of reference, you can have a centrifugal force. Look at the Wikipedia article for it.
Can the efficiency be improved by widening the Inlet Port? instead of just focusing on the blades in the center (does that mean the other disks arent getting airflow or something?) wouldnt that mean that more friction (even with the same amount of air) = More Power/Speed/Torque? Also, I cant understand where the exhaust ports are.
This is a great project!
But I cant do it. xD
(3rd world/ too young problems.)
You just don't always get the choice of what you want for lunch :)
I'm a science person but there is a paradox which binds me to my religious brethren and sisters.
Which is more troubling a God which always was.
Or Infinity and or something created from nothing.
God would have to be infinite and spring from nothingness
Science can choose one or the other.
I'm saying there is always a free lunch, you just don't always get to choose what you are eating.
I was trying to be funny at first. (MY Geek humor sometimes does not translate well)
And then I got serious. In the end there are things we cannot know or comprehend. --- Paradox.
Infinity and Causality are paradoxes.
What created something out of nothingness?
If you are infinite then you have no creation or end.
Religious Paradox:
Can god create a rock larger than he can move? lol
But Causality is always a function of the state before that point in time.
Maybe its a circular function? Symmetrical on the macro scale, and non symmetric locally. IN which case we keep returning to 0 and all numbers are positive? We descend into a world of fractals. An infinite rabbit hole that keeps Excedrin selling well.
Something without a true beginning or end is as wacky as any religion!
Causality either maps to infinity or God or it breaks down and is no longer valid.
Causality needs time but if there is no change in time, ie: the universe is reduced to a single common state variable, then all we need is activation energy based on a density function of that state variable, which results in a second state variable.
Then you can map it all with a circular function and say everything is infinite and be satisfied. Except I would say why is there anything?
Science shows us how things work or can work, and philosophy and or religion tells us why?
So to rephrase: How is it that we can get something from nothing?
In the Universe I live in energy and matter are the same thing in different clothing. Practical physics deals with finite measurement. Mathematical abstractions do not have this limit.
Religious Paradox:
Can god create a rock larger than he can move? lol
I would say no based on the 1st law of Thermo. It would be over unity!
Godel The man who reduced the principia to ashes.
If not you are dealing with infinity. With infinity nothing has ever been created or destroyed its just changing form?
Still infinity is a paradox for causality because its saying their is no beginning or end, just points between numbers.
Some things are unknowable, and non computable.
Whitehead in the Principia tried to save us but failed.
Tesla must have included these for a purpose though he doesn't mention why.
The labyrinth looks like a seal.
I wonder are the grooves a sort of brake or governing mechanism, the fluid gets compressed in the grooves and thus slows the turbine down, perhaps?
I know it must be fun to see how fast the turbine can spin but the practical thing must be to turn that spin into power.
Any ideas on the grooves and labyrinth and why Tesla included them.

Gaming is available in the YA area during these times.
Monday No Gaming
Tuesday 3:30-6:30pm
Wednesday 1-6:30pm
Thursday 3:30-6:30pm
Friday No Gaming (ask if there is a YA Librarian present)
Saturday 1:00 - 4:00pm
Sunday No Gaming
YA Craft Wednesdays
Every Wednesday afternoon from 1:30pm to 5:30pm there will be a new craft for teens to do. Some times it might be something artsy other times it might require some serious braiding techniques. Whatever it is, it will be a good opportunity to sit back, have some fun and maybe bring something home to put on the refrigerator! Craft materials will be provided until they run out or until 5:30pm. No sign-up required, just bring yourself.
