E3 2012: Sony takes care of the hardcore gamers with exclusives 'Beyond: Two Souls' & 'The Last of Us'
Sony was all about the games at this year's E3. The company's press event started off with a PS3 exclusive title from Quantic Dream, the development team behind the visually impressive Heavy Rain and the even better looking, emotional Kara tech demo that came out recently. Lead developer David Cage revealed his new project Beyond: Two Souls with an extended trailer that introduces the game's main character Jodie Holmes. Cage hand-picked actress Ellen Page (Juno) to star as Holmes in a game that begs the questions what happens when you die? Cage describes the game as "emotional, mature, and unique, but also epic, breath-taking, and spectacular" and he teases that "if you make the right decisions, maybe you will discover what lies beyond." Cage ranks up there with Avatar inventor James Cameron as a master of the performance capture technology. Visually mind-blowing with an intriguing storyline, Beyond: Two Souls is a strong exclusive for PS3.
Next, the PlayStation maker brought out developer Super Bot Entertainment to play a round of PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale. It's Sony's answer to Nintendo's Super Smash Bros., a game that pits classic PlayStation characters against each other in a battle to a button-mashing death. The game stars Kratos (God of War), Sweet Tooth (Twisted Metal), Sly Cooper, Mael Radec (Killzone 2), Fat Princess, and PaRappa the Rapper; at the presser Nathan Drake (Uncharted) and Big Daddy (Bioshock) were added to the mix. More significant than the on-screen battle was that the demonstration consisted of some players using DualShock controllers on the PS3 and others participating with PS Vitas. The game will be released on both the PS3 and PS Vita and will come packed with Cross-Play and Cross-Save functionalities. The former meaning that you can fight players on your PS3 and wirelessly with PS Vita owners; the latter meaning you can start a battle on your PS Vita, save it, and resume it on your PS3 (and vice-versa).
Following the innovations of Nintendo's Wii U and Microsoft's SmartGlass, Sony is looking to expand its services to a second screen, in this case the in-house PS Vita. In addition to Cross-Play and Cross-Save with Battle Royale, Sony also teased "cross-controller" downloadable content with LittleBigPlanet 2. Later this year the new DLC will allow gamers to "play, create and share using the PS3 and Vita" together. Sony's Jack Tretton described the experience like this. "Utilizing dual-screen gaming in single player, Vita becomes an enhanced controller for the PS3. It'll give each player their own controls and perspectives but working towards the same objective." He summed up, "Cross-platform features will enhance gameplay and create completely new experiences." They didn't focus on cross-platform functionality as nearly as much as Microsoft did, but here's to hoping that Sony is working closely with developers and content providers to enable this exciting technology more broadly across games and other forms of entertainment.
The PlayStation Move card was played this year by way of a new augmented reality experience called Wonderbook. Sony has invented a physical book filled with pages with AR markers on them that when laid out in front of a PS Eye camera will bring to life stories much like a pop-up book would, only on a much more grander scale. PS owners need only purchase one Wonderbook and it has the potential to tell theoretically an unlimited number of stories. Sony says they're working closely with developers and authors to come up with various interactive tales. The first one comes from Harry Potter scribe J.K. Rowling and it's called "Book of Spells." It features "exclusive, new and original writing from Rowling herself." The PS Move controller becomes a wand and the gamer-reader embarks on an journey that will reveal the origins of the spells introduced in the Potter books, like the levitation spell "levioso." The book releases this fall. Sony makes a point that Wonderbook "isn't limited to just stories." It can also serve educational purposes: "imagine sailing the seven seas to explore an atlas, walking with dinosaurs, traveling beyond the stars to discover astronomy." Though demos of this type of usage weren't shown, Sony said that Moonbot Studios is developing "Diggs Nightcrawler," a story inspired by film noir, so at least a couple of books will be ready when the physical Wonderbook hits shelves later this year.
Back to the games for the hardcore gamers… Assassin's Creed III is coming to PS3 and its pirate-themed demo excited the crowd as did the announcement for Assassin's Creed III: Liberation for the PS Vita. Link the two games together and another form of cross-functionality takes place. "Cross-goods" include bonus content like new personas for your assassin. Far Cry 3 enables four-player co-op; the prequel God of War: Ascension looks to be a bloody good time; and the next title from Naughty Dog The Last of Us faded out the press event with a bang. The visuals and mechanics of that game look stunning. With Beyond, God of War, and The Last of Us, Sony proved this year that they are fully committed to securing innovative and genre-defining games to the PS3. There's a reason why PlayStation fans are so loyal; even though the PS3 is transforming into an entertainment hub akin to the Xbox, Sony never loses focus on what matters most: the games.

Ravens (9-3) at Redskins (6-6)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Redskins by 3
It was a good week for Robert Griffin III. He beat the Giants on Monday night and had the Hall of Fame request both his jersey and his cleats to honor his 714 yards rushing so far this season, a record for a rookie quarterback.
But Griffin may have topped that performance on Tuesday, at least as far as his level of celebrity was concerned. His mere presence managed to overshadow the Washington Wizards' enormous upset over the star-studded Miami Heat. Griffin was serenaded with chants of "R-G-3!" throughout the game, the spotlight remaining on him as the host Wizards beat the LeBron James-led Heat for their second win of the season.
"The kid's special," Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall told reporters this week. "He's on the verge of being a rock star. We used to travel with Mike Vick when I was in Atlanta, and it was definitely a rock-star-type atmosphere wherever he went. And R.G. is having that same kind of following."
That same enthusiasm is not found with the Ravens, despite Baltimore having three more wins than the Redskins and an outside chance of clinching its division this weekend with both a win and losses by Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. One reason for the lack of enthusiasm is the prospect of facing Griffin without Terrell Suggs, the reigning N.F.L. defensive player of the year, who tore his right biceps last week.
Pick: Redskins
Lions (4-8) at Packers (8-4)
Sunday, 8:20 p.m.
Line: Packers by 7
The Lions may be the only ones still hoping Brett Favre will come out of retirement and make a comeback with the Packers. If that happened, Detroit might occasionally beat Green Bay.
Favre did manage to defeat the Lions 23 times as a Packer, but over the course of 16 years he also lost nine times, making Detroit feel as if it at least had a chance.
Aaron Rodgers, since taking over as the Packers' quarterback in 2008, has not been nearly as merciful. He is 8-1 against the Lions, the only loss coming in a 2010 game in which Rodgers threw 11 passes before being injured and giving way to his backup Matt Flynn.
Lions fans have likely transitioned from rooting for victories to hoping Calvin Johnson can break Jerry Rice's single-season receiving yards record, so this week should not be all that disappointing regardless of the result.
Pick: Packers
Saints (5-7) at Giants (7-5)
Sunday, 4:25 p.m.
Line: Giants by 5
Football pundits love to bring up how many different receivers a quarterback has completed passes to over the course of a game. For instance: Last week, in a loss to the Falcons, Drew Brees completed a pass to nine different receivers.
But that's not the entire story. If you count the five interceptions he threw to four different defenders, he actually completed passes to 13 players. If you add in the two players he targeted who did not catch a pass — Devery Henderson and Chris Ivory — the number grows to 15. When all is said and done, if you were within a 10-mile radius of Atlanta's Georgia Dome last week, Drew Brees probably threw a pass in your vicinity.
If the Giants' defensive line has its way, Brees will not have nearly as many chances to throw this week.
Pick: Giants
Cowboys (6-6) at Bengals (7-5)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Bengals by 3
When the season began, the Bengals could do little but throw the football reasonably well and hope that would be enough to win. But like a pitcher who throws harder in the eighth inning, Cincinnati has built momentum over the course of the season. Its defense has consistently improved and BenJarvus Green-Ellis has emerged as an every-down running back.
The progress was clear last week when the Bengals pulled off a win on the road despite getting a subpar passing performance from Andy Dalton. Green-Ellis rushed for 118 yards and Dalton ran in the go-ahead score, showing the team can go away from its strengths when necessary.
The Bengals have won four consecutive games, but face a stiff test from the Cowboys, who have Tony Romo playing well and DeMarco Murray finally back to full-speed.
Pick: Cowboys
Dolphins (5-7) at 49ers (8-3-1)
Sunday, 4:05 p.m.
Line: 49ers by 10
It is never fun to face a defense like San Francisco's, but add in the 49ers having something to prove after losing a close game last week and the fact that the Dolphins will be without their starting left tackle, Jake Long, for the remainder of the season because of a torn triceps, and it could be a very long day for Ryan Tannehill.
Justin Smith, who managed to be named an All-Pro last season at both defensive end and defensive tackle, could have a field day against the rookie tackle Jonathan Martin, who will switch over to the left side in Long's absence. Even if Martin is able to slow down the veteran Smith, he will have to contend with another Smith, Aldon, coming around the corner.
Pick: 49ers
Bears (8-4) at Vikings (6-6)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Bears by 3
The Bears will be playing on the road without linebacker Brian Urlacher, the team's emotional leader, or Tim Jennings, the team's interception leader. Lance Briggs and Charles Tillman are expected to play, but twisted ankles made them unable to finish last week's game, when Chicago allowed a season-high 459 yards to Seattle.
Despite all of that, the Bears are favored. That alone should be enough to explain how bad things have gotten in Minnesota, where Christian Ponder has squandered his strong start to the season and has, over the last seven weeks, arguably been the worst quarterback in football.
With Urlacher's contract situation unresolved, and a severe hamstring injury possibly costing him the rest of the season, he may have played his last game for the Bears.
Pick: Bears
Falcons (11-1) at Panthers (3-9)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Falcons by 4
Players do not make the N.F.L. by winning awards for being humble, but Greg Hardy, a defensive end for the Panthers, may want to do some soul searching to figure out if he really believes the things he says.
"There's a point where you know you're better than someone," Hardy told The Charlotte Observer when discussing the Panthers' Week 4 loss to the Falcons. "We just didn't pull it out."
The Falcons, with 11 wins this season, have matched the Panthers' total from the last three seasons combined.
Pick: Falcons
Rams (5-6-1) at Bills (5-7)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Bills by 3
The Rams are adept at getting to the quarterback and could wreak havoc against a banged-up Bills offensive line.
Expected to be without Eric Wood, the team's starting center, and Chris Hairston, the starting right tackle, Buffalo will have its hands full. St. Louis is tied for third in the N.F.L. with 34 sacks, despite not have a player with more than eight and a half.
It would be hard enough to try to defend one dominant pass-rusher, but when a team mixes it up as well as the Rams do — getting solid contributions from Chris Long, William Hayes and possibly Robert Quinn who is recovering from a concussion — a patchwork offensive line is not a good option.
Pick: Rams
Titans (4-8) at Colts (8-4)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Colts by 6
The difference between being a reckless risk taker and a gunslinging hero in the N.F.L. can often be one well-timed touchdown pass. Andrew Luck, who has made believers of so many in a standout rookie season, left it until the final play of the game last week to decide which he was.
In retrospect, it is easy to call the game a great win for Luck, but if Donnie Avery had failed to catch Luck's 14-yard touchdown pass as time expired, the Colts would have lost to the Lions and a large chunk of the blame would have fallen on the shoulders of Luck, who threw three interceptions and 30 incomplete passes.
With a horse shoe on his helmet, it is easy to make Luck into Peyton Manning 2.0, but there is more Brett Favre in him than many may be willing to admit.
Pick: Colts
Eagles (3-9) at Buccaneers (6-6)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Buccaneers by 9
The Eagles' season has deteriorated to the point that even if Michael Vick and LeSean McCoy are medically cleared, they are unlikely to play. With a losing record already guaranteed, there is no reason to rush anyone back. The Eagles will instead get an extended look at Nick Foles and Bryce Brown, who have looked somewhat promising while filling in for the injured stars.
The Buccaneers have had a few bad weeks in a row, but the Eagles are turning into the team that cures what ails of most of their opponents.
Pick: Buccaneers
Chargers (4-8) at Steelers (7-5)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Steelers by 7
The Steelers may get Ben Roethlisberger back this week, bolstering their playoff run, while the Chargers look for answers to what went wrong.
One more loss would guarantee the team's first losing season since 2003, and the main culprit has been an offense that has failed to score 20 or more points in three of the last six games. Over all, San Diego has lost seven of its last eight, without have any major injuries to blame it on. The Chargers have simply played poorly.
Pick: Steelers
Cardinals (4-8) at Seahawks (7-5)
Sunday, 4:25 p.m.
Line: Seahawks by 10
The Cardinals opened the season 4-0, prompting talk about the best starts in franchise history. Since then Arizona has gone 0-8 and, with one more loss, would have the franchise's longest losing streak in 68 seasons. One can accuse Arizona of being a lot of things, but it would be incorrect to imply it can not provide drama.
Little should be expected this week against the Seahawks, a good team in general but a great team at home where both Russell Wilson, the team's rookie quarterback, and the entire Seattle defense seem to play with more confidence and energy.
Pick: Seahawks
Chiefs (2-10) at Browns (4-8)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Browns by 7
The Chiefs rallied together for an emotional win the day after the murder-suicide involving the starting middle linebacker Jovan Belcher. With time to actually let the news settle in, this week could prove much harder for Kansas City, especially with the game on the road.
Pick: Browns
Jets (5-7) at Jaguars (2-10)
Sunday, 1 p.m.
Line: Jets by 3
With Cecil Shorts likely sidelined after a concussion, this week should be a test of whether Chad Henne has what it takes to be the Jaguars' starting quarterback or if he has merely been a beneficiary of spectacular play by Shorts and Justin Blackmon. The Jets' defense can focus on Blackmon, which should force Henne to improvise, a skill necessary for a quality starter.
The Jets, meanwhile, are going to run out Mark Sanchez as the starting quarterback again, despite the season seemingly spinning out of control and having just a few weeks to decide if Tim Tebow or Greg McElroy is a better long-term option.
Pick: Jaguars
Texans (11-1) at Patriots (9-3)
Monday, 8:30 p.m.
Line: Patriots by 4
To establish yourself as a true contender in the A.F.C., the road runs through Foxborough Stadium, the home of the Patriots, who have represented the conference in five of the last 11 Super Bowls.
The Texans, who thus far have looked like the best team in the conference, if not the entire N.F.L., are undoubtedly anxious to prove that their 6-0 record on the road is no fluke and that their incredible balance on offense and defense can withstand anything Tom Brady and his cohorts can throw at them.
While both teams have enough offense to put on quite a show, the Texans appear to have a huge edge on defense, and can make a bold statement on national television with a win.
Pick: Texans

It is my understanding that Oregon has already made the cultivation of industrial Hemp legal and just not began to grow it because of resistance from the DEA. So I am not sure who you are asking. Oregonians have already made their decision (reference http://www.leg.state.or.us/09reg/measures/sb0600.dir/sb0676.b.html ).
As far as helping the small farmers:
The only advantage I can see is that where hemp is grown it does permit benefits for crop grown after it (mostly winter cereals). The growing and manufacturing of hemp is extremely time and labor intensive. Hemp is not something new it has been around forever. Although, I do not see a reason for it not to be cultivated and grown I also don't see it as a crop that will effectively produce thousands of jobs or small businesses.

Vaginal Yeast Infections
What Increases Your Risk
Your risk of getting a vaginal yeast infection can be increased by a number of medical and lifestyle factors.
Some of the common things that put you at risk for vaginal yeast infection include:
- Use of antibiotics. These medicines upset the normal balance between yeast and bacteria in the vagina. Antibiotics can kill too much "good" bacteria and result in too much yeast growing in the vagina, sometimes causing symptoms of a yeast infection.
- Reference Problems with your immune system Opens New Window that affect the normal balance of yeast and bacteria in the body. Having a condition such as poorly controlled Reference diabetes Opens New Window or Reference HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) Opens New Window can lead to too much yeast growing in the vagina. Taking corticosteroid medicines sometimes also weakens the immune system and increases the risk for yeast infections. Pregnant women are also at higher risk for getting yeast infections because of shifting hormones that can weaken the immune system.
- Wearing tight-fitting, nonabsorbent pants or undergarments that hold in warmth and moisture.
- Using feminine hygiene sprays, talcs, or perfumes in the vaginal area.
- Douching.
Vaginal yeast infections are not sexually transmitted. After having unprotected sex with a partner who has a yeast infection, you may have more than the normal amount of yeast in your vagina. But if after having sex you develop a yeast infection that causes symptoms, it is most likely because other things are also involved.

As a Gulf War Combat Veteran who had suffered for years and years from a myriad of symptoms as well as being on a handful of meds every day, I had enough and started "believing" in nature to be my guide to renewed health. I began by replacing my meds with herbs, vitamins, minerals and mega dosing some of these. This really helped and I felt better. The real change came when I found this site looking for a real juicer, the centrifugal I had was a pain in the rear, I purchased the Omega 8004 and since then (2 years ago) I juice on a regular basis, my health, ailments and overall appearance and health has never been better. I now am a huge advocate of juicing and have converted over 40 people so far, one day at a time, one person at a time! I concentrate on trying to help suffering veterans. In the end this was the only site where I could gather the information needed to make the right decision for me, thank you! Steady on! Steven

NEMA has just released the new 2012 Edition of NEMA WC27500, "Standard For Aerospace And Industrial Electrical Cable." This 56-page standard contains requirements for finished cables and is now available from Document Center Inc.
These cables are intended for signal and low-voltage power applications with defined environment or temperature conditions found in commercial aircraft, military aircraft, and high performance vehicles.
The specification allows the user a wide range of construction choices. Variations are available for circuit identification, conductor size, insulation type, number of conductors, shielding material, and jacket compounds.
Component wires are covered by other referenced standards.
The source document for NEMA WC27500 was MIL-C-27500, "Cable, Power, Electrical and Cable Special Purpose, Electrical Shielded, General Specification for." Later the MIL Spec was renumbered and renamed to MIL-DTL-27500 Revision H, "Cable, Power, Electrical and Cable Special Purpose, Electrical Shielded and Unshielded, General Specification for," before it was cancelled and replaced by the NEMA edition in 2001.
All current NEMA standards (as well as many obsolete ones) are available from Document Center Inc. at our website, www.document-center.com. Or contact us by phone (650-591-7600), fax (650-591-7617) or email (firstname.lastname@example.com). We've been in business for 30 years and can supply you with not only the right standard for your application, but expert assistance to help you make informed decisions.

I Dare You!
27 Sep
Do you remember playing Truth or Dare when you were a teenager? What did you prefer, telling a truth or accepting the challenge of a dare?
To be completely honest, I was afraid of both, which is probably why I avoided this game at all costs growing up. And all through my marriage I found myself still avoiding both of these options.
But divorce changed all that; it tends to do that. Moving through and forward after divorce is the fastest way to conquer your fear of speaking your truth and daring to do what you have never done before.
Lately I have been thinking a lot about all the ways that we allow fear to hold us back from what we want and are meant to do. And I have decided that I will no longer allow it to prevent me from experiencing what I want in my life.
Last weekend I did something that I have wanted to do for a long time but have always made excuses as to why I couldn't do it. I participated in my first Warrior Dash. The Warrior Dash is an obstacle run. It is a 5K run with about 10 obstacle challenges along the course.
While I take care of myself and am pretty fit, the thought of the Warrior Dash was a little intimidating for me. And yet, at the same time, it has always looked like something really fun to do. So in the spring, I posted a call to action on my facebook page to see if anyone would like to do it with me. To be honest, I got a lot of people telling me how fun it looked; but I did not get many who wanted to commit to doing it with me. Despite the lack of commitment by others, I wasn't going to give up.
Eventually, a lovely woman who I went to high school with jumped in and said she would love to join; we hadn't really connected in almost 20 years and I was delighted to seize this opportunity! Then, a friend and colleagues said she would love to join as well. By the end of the summer we had six women on our team, three that I had never met before. We decided to name our team, Dash Divas.
So last weekend, I found myself standing at the Starting Line of my first Warrior Dash with my six Dash Divas, all of us doing something scary for the first time. And it was a blast!
We were nervous, and excited, and committed to finishing together…leaving no woman behind! Here we are crossing the finish line!!
I was so proud of myself, so proud of us. Daring to do something we have all wanted to do; challenging ourselves to fight through our nerves and our fear!
Life during and after divorce is full of opportunities to dare ourselves to live the life we imagine, and deserve; if we choose to see those opportunities and take advantage of them.
It can be comfortable to stay where we are, even if it is not where we really want to be. Moving forward is uncomfortable and frightening, but everything you want is on the other side of fear. And the only way to get there is to step out of your comfort zone.
So, I dare you.
I dare you to do something you have always wanted to do.
I dare you to look for opportunities that scare you, and to face your fear and do it anyway.
I dare you to be uncomfortable, knowing that what you really want is on the other side of it.
I dare you to speak your truth.
I dare you to push yourself harder than anyone else will.
I dare you to be vulnerable and scared, we all are.
I dare you to take risks, because you will grow from them.
I dare you to let go of what was, because your future is waiting for you.
I dare you to open yourself up to new friends, new experiences and new love.
I dare you to ask for the support you deserve.
I dare you to express your desires out loud.
I dare you do just one thing every day that moves you towards the life you imagine.
I dare you to be YOU…because you are magnificent; you are brilliant, bold and courageous beyond measure.
Together, just like me and my Dash Divas, we will boldly move forward, leaving no woman behind.
You are not alone. We are in this together!

I don't get it. Many folks can't retire because they're broke. They've worked their whole lives and have little to show for it. Lord knows, getting a $1,000 Social Security check every month isn't my idea of a retirement plan. However, receiving $15,000 a month in mailbox money is a lot more like it – don't you agree?
People often point to the downside of being an investor – tenants. True – if you put a bad tenant in your house, then you're not gonna have an enjoyable time. The other side of the coin is this: Most tenants – if you screen them properly – are easy to work with, take great care of the property, pay their rent on time and are good neighbors. And here's the best part – you get to choose which tenant – a good one or a bad one – goes in your investment property.
Let me ask you a simple question: When you retire, would you rather go to your mailbox on the first of every month and pick up a single, measly Social Security check, or would you rather see your mailbox cram-packed with rent checks? Guess who gets to decide which it will be? You do, my friend.
There's another upside of owning rental property. Landlords get incredible tax breaks. Let's look at an example. Two fellas, Tom and David, will each make $50,000 this year. Tom works at a big box store and gets W-2 income. David owns 10 rental properties and gets passive income. Let's look at what each fella gets to keep after the government gets done stealing a chunk of the money they've earned.
From Tom's paycheck, he pays $2,100 in Social Security tax, $725 in Medicare tax, $6,250 in Federal Income Tax and $2,430 in State Income tax. After paying the government a total of $11,500 in taxes, Tom got to keep only $38,495 of the $50,000 he earned.
Now let's look at David's paycheck: He received $100,000 in rents and had $50,000 in expenses, so his net income is the same as Tom's: $50,000. But because David got Passive Income from rents and not Earned Income like Tom, he didn't have to pay Social Security or Medicare tax. Wait – it gets better. David got to take a $27,272 depreciation write-off against his properties – and this is a paper loss only, not a real loss. This lowered his taxable income to $22,727. At this income level, he paid $1,559 in Federal Income tax and $1,364 in State Income tax, for a total of $2,923 in taxes. He got to keep $47,077 of the $50,000 he earned.
I know, dry stuff, and I'm no CPA, but here's the point: If you make $50,000 this year, would you rather be able to keep $47,077 of it, or would you rather have the government steal an additional $8,582 of it and let you keep only $38,495? It's your choice.
Long ago, I learned that it's not how much you make that counts, it's how much you keep. Here's a sad reality to prove my point. Do NFL players make a lot of money? Would you call them rich? Did you know that within two years after retiring, 78 percent of them go bankrupt? 78 percent, can you believe that?
So which would you rather be, a landlording geek, or a struggling retiree, praying the Social Security system stays solvent?

Umeco high performance prepregs at Farnborough
4th July 2012, Farnborough
Umeco Structural materials, a leading provider of high performance prepregs and adhesives to the aerospace, space and military industries, will be exhibiting examples of Airbus-qualified prepregs on its stand at the Farnborough show, which takes place between 9 and 13 July 2012.
Umeco says it leads the way in Out-of-Autoclave (OoA) prepreg processing technology for primary and secondary aircraft structures, and has its MTM 44-1, MTM 45-1, MTM 46 epoxy prepregs in use at major airframers, including Airbus.
Visitors to the Umeco stand will see an aerospace sandwich panel manufactured using a combination of the company's MTM 44-1 OoA carbon fabric prepreg and MTF246 sandable surface improvement film.
According to Umeco, this combination enables the customer to produce paint-ready parts with minimal reworking and curing costs.
Also on display will be an integrally-stiffened monolithic wing skin demonstrator section manufactured using Umeco's OoA MTM 44-1 carbon unidirectional prepreg. This material was apparently chosen for its high toughness, low density and ability to produce low void content parts using vacuum bag moulding.
Umeco's activities are global and focused on delivering advanced composites innovation and a range of services, from structural and process materials to tooling and distribution solutions to its customers.
Xavier Gambert, Umeco Aerospace Market Sector Manager, said:
"We have a very wide range of prepregs qualified at major OEMs, and not only for civil aircraft structures. For example, in space applications, we have low out-gassing cyanate esters and epoxies qualified at ESA. For aircraft interiors, we supply phenolics and epoxy prepregs."
"Umeco is a name synonymous with innovation and service. As an international provider of advanced composite and process materials, we work primarily with organisations and individuals across aerospace, defence, wind energy, recreation, automotive and marine," the company said.

The Tebbs Bend bridge will be moved and preserved, likely sometime next year.
Funding for a new bridge isn't firm yet, however, and it isn't known who will move the bridge.
At last Tuesday's regular Taylor County Fiscal Court meeting, Taylor County Judge/Executive Eddie Rogers announced the Kentucky Heritage Land Conservation has given the county permission to move the bridge to the nearby Tebbs Bend-Green River Nature Area.
The Taylor County Board of Education approved a 1-percent raise for certified and classified employees in the 2013-2014 fiscal year at its regular meeting last Tuesday. But according to Shannon H. Cox, representing the Taylor County Education Association, 1 percent is not enough.
A letter from the association, signed by Cox, was recently given to Board members. The letter pra-ised Superintendent Roger Cook's vision and asked for a 5-percent raise for teachers who have worked hard to carry out that vision.
Lawmakers might head back to the office a bit sooner than scheduled.
Rumor has circulated that Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear might call state lawmakers to a special legislative session for approving a redistricting plan.
Senate and representative district boundaries must be redrawn after each Census. After the 2010 Census, a plan was approved but later ruled unconstitutional.
Taylor County's State Rep. John "Bam" Carney, R-Campbellsville, said he won't support such a special session because of the cost.
It's been 25 years, but they haven't lost hope that one day his killer will be put in handcuffs.
And it's that hope that keeps them coming back to Campbellsville each year to remember him.
Those passing by Ransdell Chapel on the Campbellsville University campus last Wednesday might have seen a swarm of state and local law enforcement vehicles. But they weren't there to investigate a crime.
The officers were there to remember one of their own, an officer who was killed in the line of duty more than two decades ago.

Fanatic #3965
Hi, new peeps! I've been here since the relatively early days of RA. When CR imploded and sent a lot of members here it was admittedly really overwhelming for a lot of us. But in hindsight I think almost everyone here is thankful for the friendships we've gained from that migration. At least I certainly am. And I don't think I'm alone.
RA is definitely different from what I have seen in the past at RWOL, but I think that's really a positive. You won't find a running site with a more hands-on owner. RA is truly a labor of love for Eric. I am 99% certain that I would have quit running YEARS ago were it not for his investment in creating a really wonderful and motivational place for runners (and multisport folks, too...I don't even run all that much, nowadays, but I log everything here) to track their efforts and share in support of one-another. I hope you will all find this place to be as positive a corner of the interwebs as many of us have. Welcome!

What's this CR (Cool Running): migration \ exodus you all speak of anyway, I'm assuming it's when Active got involved.
Correct. Welcome RW folks. This place has a lot of depth. The user groups are great as are the very motivating pace bunnies! I'm a Cool Running migrator too.

AND you can start your own community within a community (user groups). The RA community is also getting very close to a 100% understanding of the difference between and usage of the words "loose" and "lose." Around here almost every single one of us "lose weight", and almost none "loose weight." Welcome.
Would a user group be the best place to start the Dailies and Penguin type threads we had at RWOL? Basically different groups of people post their daily runs if they so choose, and the nicer folks would be all encouraging and stuff. I haven't seen such threads here, am I missing something?
When I read loose/lose I thought it sounded so idyllic, but now I wonder, what about reign/rein, it's/its, pluralizing apostrophe's, your/you're, and begging the question?

Its and it's, your and you're are usually understood, but are just speed writing mistakes that get past the spellcheck. Lose/loose almost seems to have been allowed in some form of creative spelling class in the the new era of teaching post 1979. They come out of high school thinking lose is spelled like loose.
The type of thread you describe can be found in tow placed that I know: in the Masters user group and Low-Heart training forum.
You could always start one on the main board. Why not?

Well I'm from RW as well.
I'm a rookie runner but forum/online veteran and have built a few forums/websites in my time and I found it rather disconcerting that the Admins/Mods over there appear to disregard the issues that the community is speaking of. The performance of the site is horrific and the endless spam makes it tedious at best to wade through. Looking forward to learning new stuff and perhaps sharing some experiences with others here.

Scotch ATG Applicators quickly and neatly apply Scotch and 3M branded adhesive transfer tapes. A touch of the trigger releases the adhe... Full Description & Details.
A scrappy tool must have is the Scotch ATG Pink Adhesive Applicator Gun. So, so, so many people SWORE that the Scotch ATG was their FAVORITE adhesive applicator. But it was big & red & a little heavy, so I stayed away. Well, when Scotch came out with their slightly less industrial PINK ATG and I found it at a bargain price, I figured I would see what all the fuss was about. THERE IS FUSS FOR GOOD REASON!!! This is THEE VERY BEST adhesive applicator I have ever used! As well as, THEE VERY BEST ADHESIVE I have ever used! 3 major reasons why I love the Scotch Pink ATG & Adhesive: #1: STICKY, STICKY, STICKY--my pages do not fall apart, like they have with other adhesive & the Scotch adhesive for the Pink ATG can adhere to MANY, MANY different surfaces, good for almost any type of sticking you need to do. #2: EASY TO USE APPLICATOR that does not break--to use, pull the trigger and press down & pull towards your body. Simple, right? #3: REFILLS THAT LAST A LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG TIME!! I think this is my favorite, the refills are reasonably priced, do not use a ton of plastic (environmentally friendly!) or take up a ton of space if you like to buy in bulk. AND even if you are an adhesive hog, like me (I have to have adhesive on the perimeter of every piece of everything I put on my pages), they still last a long time. The only complaint I have is that by the time I need to refill the applicator I have forgotten how to do it! Luckily, there are cool little picture diagrams on the inside of the applicator to remind you how to refill :)
I have wanted an ATG gun for a while now because everyone on the forums rave about it. My mom gave me a giftcard for xmas so I ordered one from j.com and it was only 14.99 with a coupon. Great deal! I was a little worried about loading the tape because some people have had issue with it. The hardest part for me was opening it. Once I got it open I just followed the instructions and bam it was in. Totally easy! I love this gun. The size makes you think it would be heavy but it is not. It makes it easy to see on a table full of paper and embellishments, cutting tools etc. It glides across the page way easier than my Glue Glider Pro does and the amount of tape you get greatly surpases that of the glue glider plus there is no big plastic attachment to throw in the trash when I have to change my tape roll which is great for the enviroment. The adhesive forms a permanent bond and has a great hold so I am not worried about my cards or pages falling apart. Another added benefit is the donation for breast cancer that comes from every purchase. So no matter how you look at it this is a great tool to add to your papercrafting arsenal....BUY THIS IS if you are in the market for a great adhesive machine....
This tape gun has made crafting so much less expensive for me. All I had to do was compare the price of refills with this gun getting two reels of tape for less than $10 (depending on acid free or not) for 72 YARDS total as compared to about 50 to 60 FEET from other manufacturers for comparable prices. That means the refills give me THREE times as much product.
Yes the gun costs something - I waited for a sale and actually got two, one for acid free tape and one for regular tape, so I wouldn't have to unload and reload one gun to switch tapes in the middle of the roll. I figure I made back the price of the gun within about 3 boxes of refills, and you know the gun will last a lot longer than that.
Loading the gun is really no problem. There is a video right here on scrapbook.com and there are directions with pictures that come in every box. After you do it once or twice, it's natural to you.
I would say the only drawback is its larger size to accomodate the larger reel of tape, but even that I got over very quickly. At least I don't lose my tape on my desk somewhere!
Very highly recommended
I got this when it was on sale for $20. I am so thankful for the sale; this is by far my favorite Adhesive. If I don't like something I give it away or throw it out if it is horrible--some things just aren't worth passing on. I found loading easy for me. I just followed the pictures on the enclosure and engraved on the ATG. The hardest part is getting the door open, as other reviews have commented.
The adhesive is excellent. I think it is the strongest so far. It does take some getting used to; at first I was stringing adhesive. Then I sort of went back just a bit and the stringing stopped. The adhesive lasts great. I tore my tape once and had to rethread it. It was nice to be able to do that. I never could get the Hermafix threaded and either gave it to a store owner or friend to do for me.
I haven't decided If I'll use it at workshops because of the size or not. It is perfect for home. The size makes it easy to find when I make a mess!
I love my Scotch ATGs. I already had a yellow one that I use with 1/2" adhesive, and have been wanting to purchase a 1/4" gun..... With this price, I couldn't pass it up. I purchased three. One for a gift, and the other two for myself. I plan on putting archival safe adhesive in one for scrapbooking, and using the other one for regular adhesive on cards and gift wrapping : )
If you don't already use the Scotch ATG, BUY IT!!!! It is well worth the money.
One drawback for many is the size; but not for me, it makes it that much easier to find on my desk : ) Who could miss that big pink gun?
PS. Loading the gun is a little tricky at first, but after a couple of refills, you will get the hang of it. Just follow the arrows that are marked on the plastic : )
