Got a question regarding this product?
Simply click on the "Live Chat" icon below to start chatting with one of our fully trained
and professional Client Managers.
Minimums. Do you have minimum quantities per order?
- In most cases... no we do not! We do not even have a minimum spend as some uniform companies do.
- Please note that for some select product ranges, we do have minimums as imposed upon us by the manufacturer. This minimum is usually 10 units and this only effects a very small range of our products.
- We are one the few uniform businesses that allow you to order as many or as little as you want! The problem with uniform companies that have a "Minimum Policy" is that you order your bulk range which is fine. But then you want to order one or two new garments for a new staff member and they make you buy 50 units!!! That will never happen here with our apparel range.
Freight. How much does the freight cost?
- Trying to create a automatic rule of thumb for freight is a nightmare... but we have come up with a solution which will cover most orders.
- To save money, each label comes from a different distribution warehouse. This means that we are able to charge a flat rate per label for most orders depending on quantity and weight of order.
- Our minimum freight & handling charge for the first label is only $19.95 (exc tax). This means that if you wishes to buy products from additional labels, then you will only be charged an additional $9.95 per label thereafter (exc tax).
- For exceptionally large orders or when delivering to remote locations and when the shipping costs exceeds our normal delivery and handling fee, we will notify you of the additional freight charge before proceeding with the order.
- We have also used the same principle above for when you have selected to include branding on your order.
Quotes. How do i get a quote?
- This is where the webs most advanced uniform web site comes in extremely handy.
- You can create your own quote online right now without having to wait for someone to get back to and possibly increase thier prices so that they have room to move should you decide to haggle or compare quotes!
- All you do is;
- Order exactly what you want on line.
- Add the branding you require (embroidery, screen printing or even no branding).
- Go to the "Check Out" in the shopping cart enter your details and then simply click "QUOTE" rather than applying a payment in the shopping cart!
- It can not get any easier and it is without any obligation.
ETA. How long does it take to receive my order?
- This question is not the easiest to answer as many factors come in to consideration for actual delivery times.
- Unfortunaltey we can not give definate delivery times as that is the responsibility of the out-sourced freight company and the location to where it is being delivered.
- What we can provide is some guestimates as to when dispatch can occur from the time of placing your order.
- Dispatch times vary depending on your order but here are some guildelines.
- Unbranded Orders; 24-48 hours to dispatch
- New Orders with Branding Set Up Required; 2-4 weeks to dispatch
- Repeat Orders with Branding; 5-14 working days to dispatch.
- Deliveries to PO Boxes; 1 week to dispatch as the stock needs to come to the office from the warehouse(s) prior to dispatch
- Discount Scrubs Range (Custom Made Off Shore); 2-3 weeks
Branding. How much is it for embroidery, printing or even set ups?
- The price for branding depends on your logo, the size of your logo, the amount of work and colours involved in your logo, the garments you are ordering, the quantity of garments you are ordering... the list goes on!
- To make life easier, we have set out the general prices for embroidery and printing. To view, simply follow click on the "Embroidery" or "Printing" link at the top of this web page.
- To order embroidery or printing with us, simply add your garments that you require to the shopping cart. Once you access your shopping cart, you will be automatically taken to our BRANDING PAGE where you can either select to use it or you can select not to use our branding service!
Sports Numbers. How do I order Digital Sports Numbers?
- Yes! We not only supply Sports Numbers but we also apply them for you!
- We offer two different sizes in two different colours.
- We have small numbers for the front of garments or sleeves and larger numbers for back of garments.
- We provide the numbers in either black or white colour.
- Yes we can also do your logo in digital printing. Digital Printing is ideal for small run sportswear, promotional wear and club uniforms. Digital Printing is not ideal for business or work uniforms as the print tends not to last as long should it be worn everday. It is ideal for sportswear or promotional wear which does not get worn as much.
Advance Search. What if I can not find what I am looking for?
- If you have have a particular garment or colour that you are interested in, we provide you with 5 methods of finding it on our website! Basically... if it is avaible in our industry, we will either have it or get it!
- First... try searching by using the Uniform links on the left of the page. We have categorised all garments into one or more of the links on the left.
- Second... to assist you even further, try searching for the product by using the CATEGORY links underneath the uniform links. These links are the most popular searches for uniforms and cover most of the main industries.

- Our business model has been designed to cut as much of our over-heads and expenses as possible so as to provide the cheapest prices direct to the market.
- Our business model has been completely set-up as a online business. We have found this to be the easiest and cheapest way of running our business.
- By eliminating our expenses and still provide highly quality products and services, our customers are able to buy direct and save!
- PLUS... if you see the exact same product advertised for less (highly unlikely) on another website, quote or advertising brochure... we will beat it! You simply need to show us the original website link, quote or advertisement!
- This is our Promise to you!
Sizes. How can i know what size to order?
- To assist you in making the right choices, we have added a size chart to almost every prodoct on the actual Product Description Page which is where you order the garment.
- Plus... to make it even easier to understand the sizing chart, we have added above the actual size chart a full descriptive image which can be open and viewed so as to learn how best to read the size chart.
- We are hoping shortly to add a online video which will explain the best way to size yourself or staff.
Orders. Can we fax or telephone our order to you?
- As we are an online business, we are doing everything to keep costs down so that we can pass on the savings to you! One of the most expensive components of a uniform business is when staff need to manually enter orders.
- We have developed the internets most advanced online uniform business. By ordering online you are able to ensure that the correct garments and branding are ordered.
- A great benefit of online ordering is that the order is automated into our production system whereas manual orders use to take 1-2 days for entering.
- Another benefit of our system is that your personal details are kept confidential and protected. For this reason, all orders MUST be placed on our website and into our shopping cart.

Sales Reps. Do you have Sales Reps to come to us?
No. We use to have on road reps but we soon discovered that we had to raise our prices quite considerably to cover the costs involved with staff, cars, fuel, insurance, wages, commissions... and lots more.
Our new model is simple, it is all online at the cheapest possible prices!

Before you begin your business, you should be thinking about how you will hand that business over to someone else. No one runs a business forever. Whether you sell your business or let a relative inherit it, at some point you will need to step away.
When you finally do separate from your business, it is critical that you are certain that it is worth handing over. In his January 2019 article in Forbes magazine entitled "Make Sure Your Business is Worth Handing Over," author Francois Botha dives in and explores this very topic.
In this article, Botha emphasizes that family businesses should not "fall into the trap of prioritizing job creation for their children." Instead, that the priority should be to perpetuate the business. Botha cites the co-founder and chairman of The Leadership Pipeline Institute, Stephen Drotter, who feels that the main goal of any business needs to be its suitability.
Drotter established five principles designed to assist family businesses as they seek to prepare for succession. The first principle is to "Identify and Fix Your Problems." Current ownership should deal promptly with any business problems before passing a business on to a new generation.
The second principle Drotter covers is to "Adjust Your Management to the Strategic Evolution of Your Business." Businesses evolve from the creation of a product to sell to focusing on sales, marketing and distribution to finally addressing a plateau in sales which facilitates the need for multi-functional management.
The third principle cited by Drotter is "Talk to Your People About Them." In this principle, communication with employees is key. Getting to know and understand employees is vital.
"Be on the Lookout for Talent Everywhere," is the fourth principle. There is no replacement for skilled and motivated employees, and you never know where you may find them.
Finally, the fifth principle, "Provide Development" emphasizes that "almost everything is learned, and somebody often taught that which is learned." Employee skill must be seen as a key priority.
Making sure that a business is ready for transition to the next generation involves careful preparation and a good deal of advanced planning. The sooner that you begin asking the right kind of thoughtful questions about the current state of your business and what will benefit it moving forward, the better off everyone will be.

What if you were asked to make a list of everything inside your home from memory? Chances are, you'd end up forgetting a thing or two… right?
Well, if you ever have to file a homeowners insurance claim after a fire or major disaster, you could be asked to do just that. That's why you need a home inventory.
A home inventory is exactly what it sounds like. It's a list of all your personal possessions, along with their estimated value. And it's a great way to help protect the contents of your home.
Read more:
How Much Does Home Insurance Cost?Estimating the replacement cost of walls, doors and windows is a pretty straightforward task. But even though the items inside your home are covered, it can be harder to document the value of that baseball card collection or your favorite pair of shoes.
It takes some time and effort, but there are several reasons why a home inventory can give you peace of mind.
Why It Helps to Have a Home Inventory
- Choosing the right coverage: The worst time to find out you don't have enough insurance coverage is after a loss. Having an accurate list of all your possessions is a helpful start when you and your insurance agent decide how much insurance coverage you need. After all, you have to know the value of your items to insure them properly.
- Filing a claim faster: When disaster strikes, it can be difficult to remember everything in your home that was lost or damaged. But if you have a home inventory, your work is already done. So you can spend your time on what matters most – getting your life back on track.
- Applying for financial aid: After a disaster, you may qualify for certain tax breaks or disaster assistance. But without a list of your belongings, it will be difficult to demonstrate your financial losses. A home inventory will make the process of proving what you've lost much easier. So making one list now can save you from piles of unnecessary paperwork later.
How to start your home inventory
Creating a record of everything in your home probably sounds daunting. But there's no need to get overwhelmed. Before you start digging through those drawers and cabinets, follow these tips to make creating your home inventory more manageable:
- Choose a starting point. Don't get overwhelmed trying to think of every item in your house at once. Instead, try starting with your most valuable items, or work through your house one room at a time.
- Take pictures or video. Capturing pictures of each item or recording a video of an entire room is a great way to document your items. Be sure to label your photos with any additional information and narrate your video to describe the contents as you record.
- Use an app. There are plenty of mobile apps designed to create a room-by-room record of your home inventory. Some have different features that allow you to take pictures, enter comments and backup all your information to the cloud. Sortly, Memento Database and Nest Egg are a few popular apps for homes and businesses.
- Categorize clothing. Unless they're especially valuable, there's no need to document every T-shirt or pair of pants. Instead, write down "10 pairs of jeans," and tally your clothing by categories.
- Keep your receipts. Having documentation of your purchases, like a receipt or purchase order, helps provide an accurate value of their replacement cost.
- Record serial numbers. Writing down the serial numbers of your electronics and major appliances are a great reference for insurers.

Reeder 2 RSS reader now available for iPhone and iPad
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: News, App Updates, New Apps, $4.99,
We loved Reeder for iOS and Mac, and the thoughtful RSS reading app was fantastic, right up until Google pulled the plug on Google Reader, a service that was essential to the usability of Reeder--at least on the Mac and iPad. Now, developer Silvio Rizzi is back with his second act: Reeder 2. Unlike the first version, Reeder 2 is a universal binary, which means that for the price of the app, you get both the iPhone and iPad versions included. The design language of Reeder 2 is updated to match the look and feel of iOS 7, and gone is the requirement and reliance on Google Reader. In its place, Reeder 2 now allows you to pull and sync data from Feedbin, Feedly, Feed Wrangler, Fever, and can even act as your RSS storage app in and of itself.
You can pick up Reeder 2 now for $4.99.

Yesterday, after its iPad event, Apple released an updated version of GarageBand for iOS that includes a few new features. First is Smart Strings. Similar to the other smart modes, Smart Strings makes it easy to control a set of string instruments and to have them work together to create music on the fly.

iPhoto for iPad and iPhone released for $4.99
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Photography, iPad Apps, New Apps, Apple, $4.99,
At yesterday's iPad event, Apple unveiled the final piece of the puzzle as it pertains to bringing the full iLife suite to iOS with the release of iPhoto for iPad and iPhone. Similar to GarageBand and iMovie, iPhoto is available now as a universal app for $5. So, what's the draw? Well, iPhoto lets you use your iOS device's multi-touch display to perform basic photo editing function like simple one-tap white balance, red-eye removal, and exposure adjustments. You can also crop and straighten images, and remove blemishes with ease.
You can pull up your photos that are stored on your device, including the camera roll and Photo Stream, and compare images side-by-side. Edits are non-destructive as they save a copy rather than editing the original. You can process images that are up to 19 megapixels, which should be fine for the vast majority of people out there, but for those of you shooting with a Canon 5D Mark II in RAW format, you may wanna look elsewhere for your photo processing software--but in that scenario, why would you be using an iPad for that function anyway?
You've got a bunch of sharing options, including Twitter, Facebook, and Flickr. You can also export photos to your Camera Roll and to iTunes and email them to contacts. One new feature is Journal, where you can select a group of photos that iPhoto then puts together in a unique gallery with dates, weather information, maps, and more. It's like making a diary out of photos relating to an event or range of dates.
For $5, you can't go wrong with iPhoto for iOS. You can get it now on the App Store.

Let's Create! Pottery review
Posted by Patrick Lambert Categories: Entertainment, iPad Apps, Reviews, $2.99, $4.99,
Let's Create! Pottery from Infinite Dreams is not a new app, but it has remained rather unknown until recently when the company released the Let's Create! Pottery HD for iPad. This app is quite unique, and provides a very unusual experience. The basic premise is that you're looking at a spinning pot, which you shape with your fingers to create all sort of pots, vases and receptacles. The gestures are very intuitive, and reminiscent of working with real clay. You can make the object taller, shorter, smaller or bigger, and create all kind of rounded shapes for your works. Once you're done, you click on the firing icon and then the app will create the finished vase in beautiful 3D. The technology used to change that initial figure into a 3D vase is quite amazing.

Bartleby's Book of Buttons now available for iPad
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Books, iPad Apps, New Apps, $4.99,
Hey, all you iPad-owning parents out there, if you are looking for a children's storybook that does more than just read aloud to your kids, you've gotta check out Bartleby's Book of Buttons Vol. 1: The Far Away Island. What makes this different enough to warrant our excitement? Well, we've been playing with it since it's been in beta, and it's just fun for kids…and to be honest, even fun for an adult to go through once or twice. It's a case study for how you can take books, and do them differently on the iPad, providing a fun, interactive experience for kids and parents to share together. Each chapter of the book is a puzzle that follows the story, but to get to the next chapter, you must first solve the puzzle. Each puzzle that you solve "unlocks" that chapter in the table of contents, so you can skip to any unlocked chapter from the beginning.
The puzzles aren't hard, but for a little child it might take them a minute or two of playing with the page to figure it out, which is great to see. We've got a Bartleby Book of Buttons gallery that shows you a page from each chapter, to give you an idea of what we mean. But seriously, if you have a child between the ages of, say, 5-10, we don't see how you can go wrong. Bartleby's Book of Buttons Vol. 1 is available now on the App Store for $4.99.

Ratio: An indispensable cooking tool app
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Lifestyle, Reviews, $4.99,
We've been playing with the Ratio app for a bit, and we must say, we're impressed. If you are into cooking, or if you want to get into cooking, this is one of those apps that comes out and sets you free from recipes and having to follow them perfectly. The app is $5, and here's what you can expect from it:
- The 32 critical ratios that form the backbone of the culinary arts, with instructions: doughs, batters, meat preparations, custards, sauces (pasta dough and pizza dough, sponge cake and pancakes, fritters and crepes, stocks and sauces, crème caramel and chocolate sauce.
- A calculator that figures out how much of each ingredient you need, no matter how many or how few people you want to serve.
- An ounces-to-grams converter (ratios work no matter what unit you choose to use!).
- Delicious variations for recipes on all the ratios, ideas for the creation of new dishes according to your tastes.
- An easy way to store your own recipes and notes that you've created from the basic ratios.
- Quick fun ways to share what your cooking with your fellow cooks, on Facebook and on Twitter.
- Ratios is also a great way to understand and tweak your own recipes, to help you make your pancakes even fluffier, your pizza dough crisper, your crème brulee richer.
Definitely nice to have in the palm of your hand, and the app is already optimized for iOS 4.

PULLED PORK...when those two words are uttered in our house, my family starts to chant, cheer, and drool.
That's right.
Now, I try not to be too bossy, but I can't help myself this time. (Sorry my vegetarian and kosher friends.) The rest of you must try this recipe! It is that easy. That good. And I'm making some right now.
This recipe comes from David Chang (of beloved Momofuku) and his new magazine Lucky Peach. This is the pulled pork Chang sticks in Momofuku's pork buns, bowls of ramen, etc..
We've made this recipe a half dozen times since we discovered it a couple of months ago. We scarf the crispy, juicy, salty pork on its own (with maybe a veggie or two along side just to make us feel healthy.) Pulled pork tacos with radish slices and guacamole have also proved a popular variation on this piggy theme. And if there are ever any leftovers, a sandwich with pork slathered with BBQ sauce is our favorite option.
Now that we are hooked on this pulled pork, I'd love any other ideas you guys might have for ways to eat it. Suggestions, anyone?
Be sure to take into consideration that the pork needs to sit overnight in the fridge with its salt/sugar rub, and it does need to roast for 6 hours in the oven. Be patient. It's worth it!
INGREDIENTS from Lucky Peach Issue 1
(printable recipe)
- 3-4 pounds boneless pork shoulder
- 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal Kosher Salts per pound of pork *
- 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon sugar per pound of pork
- black pepper
Rub salt, sugar, and a bit of ground pepper onto the pork shoulder. Cover and refrigerate pork overnight.
The next day, preheat oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Place seasoned pork into a roasting pan. We use our trusty cast iron skillet. Toss it in the oven.
Roast for 6 hours. Lucky Peach suggests occasionally basting the pork with the rendered fat and juices after 3 hours. (Honestly, I usually skip the basting and really dig the crispy exterior.)
After 6 hours, take the pork from the oven, let it rest for a half hour or so. Then use forks to break apart the pork. Lucky Peach says to "savage the pork with two forks." I LOVE that!
Cannellini Bean Soup with Wilted Greens: this soulful recipe from Alice Waters lives deep in my archives, but I've made a couple of batches recently, loved every bite, and I thought you might enjoy it too!

On a Friday morning, it's MORNING EDITION, from NPR News. I'm Steve Inskeep.
For those just waking up, a bitter political fight has changed in the last few hours. President Obama is offering what the White House is calling an accommodation to the Catholic Church and other critics. The administration generated intense opposition with a ruling on contraception. That ruling says employers must fully cover birth control in employee health plans. There is an exception for churches that may oppose contraception, but no exception for large institutions like universities that are affiliated with a church. And that's been the source of the outcry. NPR's Scott Horsley joins us from the White House now to tell us how this policy is changing.
Scott, good morning.
SCOTT HORSLEY, BYLINE: Good morning, Steve.
INSKEEP: We just described what the rules were for a couple of weeks. What's the new policy going to be?
HORSLEY: Well, under the new policy, women will still have access to birth control at no cost. But if they work for a Catholic hospital or university or some other organization that has a religious objection, then the insurance company - not their employer - will have to reach out to those women and offer contraceptive coverage at no cost. Now, from an economic vantage point, this makes some sense because birth control is cheaper than the alternative. So it's in the insurance company's interest to make it available. But more importantly, it's designed to take the Catholic organization out of the loop. The employer doesn't have to be involved in paying for the insurance, something they object to. And yet women will still get affordable access to birth control, no matter who they work for.
INSKEEP: OK, now, these - the objections to the old policy were raised by Catholic bishops, among others, and Republican presidential candidates have taken up the cry. Is this change going to satisfy the critics?
HORSLEY: Well, it remains to be seen whether this will satisfy the Catholic bishops or anyone whose real objection is to birth control, per se. But from a political point of view, the bishops have lost that argument a long time ago. Surveys show the overwhelming majority of women - including Catholic women - already use birth control at some point in their life.
The argument the bishops and their allies have been winning in the last couple of weeks, and that the White House has been losing, is about religious freedom. And so the White House is now trying to provide some accommodation on that front. The administration doesn't necessarily have to win over the bishops if it can isolate them and win over lay Catholics and others who may want birth control coverage themselves, but not want to see their church or anyone else's church seem to get pushed around by the government.
INSKEEP: The Republicans had fought to make this a broader issue, to involved evangelical Christians, to involve people from other faiths. So who else is the White House thinking about as they make this change?
HORSLEY: Well, you're right. The Republican candidates have been arguing - even before this policy - that Obama administration's been conducting a, quote-unquote, "war on faith," or war on religion. But most of their evidence before this policy tended to be kind of obscure issues that didn't necessarily take hold with the public. This was something that the GOP candidates were really able to sink their teeth into, and so in some ways, it's aimed at silencing them.
But the tightrope for the White House is: How do you accommodate the church and those with a religious objection without losing women, many of whom sort of belatedly rallied around the original administration policy just in the last week or so? Polling shows there are large numbers of women - including Catholic women - who want this kind of coverage. And, of course, young secular women also want it. And those women were a very important constituency for the president in 2008, and likely to be an important constituency for him again in November.
INSKEEP: Now, it's interesting. I'd seen arguments that Catholics don't actually, as a group, feel unanimous about this policy at all. In fact, Catholics narrowly supported the president's old policy, but the real division was between men and women. You saw real differences in polling between men and women on this issue.
HORSLEY: So, again, what the White House wants to do is take away the religious freedom argument and really focus attention on access to birth control for women. If the fight is on that turf, the administration feels like this is a fight they can win, even if they don't necessarily satisfy every criticism from every Catholic bishop.
INSKEEP: So the president will be making his case a little later on today?
HORSLEY: We expect to hear from the president just about an hour from now.
INSKEEP: And are you also expecting more administration officials out as the day goes on?
HORSLEY: Well, they'll be talking, and, of course, they'll also be trying to rally their allies, both among liberal Catholics and among women's organizations.
INSKEEP: OK. Scott, thanks very much.
HORSLEY: It's my pleasure.
INSKEEP: That's NPR's White House correspondent Scott Horsley. Again, President Obama is expected a little later on today to announce a change in administration policies on contraception, particularly relating to institutions affiliated with a church. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

California peaks starting with A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
On the California Peaks page,
1993 peaks above 5690 feet are marked as 'USGS peak'.
Peaks from non-USGS sources are also included, and they may be lower altitude.
(The USGS elevation range was chosen to present no more than 2000 peaks from that source.)
Peaks are listed alphabetically below, and do not include prefixes or suffixes like North/South, Peak, Mt, Knob, etc. For example, you can look up "Mt Rose" as simply "rose", and "Pilot Knob" as "pilot". Coordinates from the USGS use North American Datum 1927 (NAD27) latitude and longitude coordinates, in decimal degrees. For comparison, coordinates from the Sierra Peaks database are given in North American Datum 1983 (NAD83). Both sets of coordinates are shown as links to Google Maps.
Beware the online map links from the USGS pages, because they show somewhat rough locations - the peaks are NEAR the marked point, but other databases (like the Sierra Peaks and Desert Peaks list) are more accurate.
Follow links to the Climber.Org Trip Reports for other people's experience, and remember to file your own report!
Follow the links to Climber.Org Sierra Peaks or Climber.Org Desert Peaks entries (supersets of Sierra Club peak lists) if you want info including climbing difficulty, online GIF maps showing all peaks in a region (courtesy of TOPO!), and UTM coordinates. Also from these peaks pages you can click on the coordinates to view a scalable online map from Google Maps, and pictures of many peaks from Ron Karpel.

Georgia entered the Union on January 2, 1788, the fourth of the original thirteen colonies to ratify the United States Constitution. The Georgia constitution of 1789 created a bicameral legislature consisting of a Senate and a House of Representatives; representatives were elected annually, senators every third year. Although Georgia's early constitutions specified neither the sex nor the race of voters, in practice eligible voters consisted of free men (predominantly whites) at least 21 years old who had paid taxes during the previous year and had resided in the county for at least six months. Each county elected one senator, and counties elected from two to five representatives, depending roughly on relative population. The legislature elected the governor to a two-year term, initially through a cumbersome process but, after a 1795 amendment, through a simple joint ballot of the legislature. Another 1795 amendment made Senate elections annual. All elections were by ballot.
The 1798 constitution (frequently amended but not entirely replaced until 1861) left the basic electoral structure intact. The most important change specified the use of the "three-fifths" or "federal" ratio, which counted three-fifths of the enslaved population in addition to the free white population in apportioning seats in the state House of Representatives. The 1798 document also required regular reapportionment among counties as the population changed. The legislature continued to elect the governor until an amendment in 1824 required direct popular election of the state's chief executive. The first popular election for governor occurred in 1825. In elections for the U.S. Congress, the legislature elected senators by joint ballot, and the state alternated between a district system and a general ticket system for the direct popular election of members of the U.S. House of Representatives.
Early Georgia politics was highly personal and factional. The absence of statewide elections, except for Congress, tended to localize politics and deter the formation of broad, institutionalized parties. The Federalists had some strength through the turn of the century, especially in Savannah and Augusta, but Georgia was largely a Republican state. The major political contests featured clashes among those who claimed to be Jeffersonian Republicans. Outrage over the Yazoo land frauds helped James Jackson dominate state politics for many years until his death in 1806, and William Crawford and George M. Troup then assumed the leadership of the Jackson group. John Clark headed the major rival faction. In broad terms, Jackson-Crawford-Troup adherents tended to have Virginia ties and to be based in the wealthier sections of the eastern black belt and low country. The Clark faction contained more people of North Carolina extraction and found its strongest support in frontier areas. Clark defeated Troup for the governorship in both 1819 and 1821, before Troup bested his rival in 1825. William Crawford was a major presidential contender in 1824. Excitement over these races, indeed, helped push through the amendment calling for popular election of the governor and a law mandating popular election of presidential electors. The most persistent and pressing issue of this early period was the state's efforts to push back the Creek and Cherokee nations and open Native American lands to white settlement. The short-staple cotton boom and the Panic of 1819 fueled economic and land concerns. The election returns presented in this series end just before the Georgia factions began to organize themselves into bona fide political parties that would become the Democratic and Whig parties in the state.

The chief of the National Institutes of Health is disavowing a ruling from the government office that oversees the ethics of human research.
At issue is a controversial study of more than 1,300 severely premature infants. This spring, the federal Office for Human Research Protections criticized the scientists who ran the study for failing to tell parents about the risks their newborn children might face.
"We respectfully disagree," NIH director Dr. Francis Collins and two colleagues say, in an unusual public disagreement within the government over research ethics.
At the same time, the Office for Human Research Protections or OHRP told the University of Alabama at Birmingham, one of the study sites, that it was suspending disciplinary action on the matter until ethics guidelines on such studies are clarified.
The watchdog office also says it won't proceed against sponsors of similar studies for now. But it held open the possibility that the Alabama medical center and 22 other trial sites could still face sanctions. The OHRP is an arm of the Department of Health and Human Services, the NIH's parent agency.
In a commentary published by the New England Journal of Medicine, Collins and company write that "this controversy has alarmed some of the parents of infants who were in the study, confused the biomedical research community, and befuddled IRBs," the Institutional Review Boards that oversee human research at every clinical center.
Collins' coauthors are Kathy Hudson, NIH's deputy director for science, outreach and policy, and Dr. Alan Guttmacher, director of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.
The three say they have "a fundamental difference in interpretations" over what doctors knew about how to treat preemies at the time the multicenter study was launched, back in 2004.
The government's research watchdogs say the study's authors should have warned patients that children receiving lower doses of oxygen might be at higher risk of nerve damage and death.
But Collins and other defenders of the study, called SUPPORT, say data available back in 2004 gave "no reason to foresee that infants in one study group would have a higher risk of death that would those in the other group."
The commentary is accompanied by a letter roundly supporting the disputed study that is signed by 46 ethicists and pediatricians.
The ruling of the OHRP is "unfair to the investigators and institutions involved in SUPPORT," the letter says. Allowing it to stand "would...set a precedent that would impede ongoing and future...outcomes studies."
While the letter's signatories say the OHRP "overreaches" in concluding that the study violated federal ethics guidelines, they "acknowledge that the permission forms could have been improved" and "the consent process for clinical research can no doubt be improved."
They did not specify how the SUPPORT study's consent process fell short.
Collins and his colleagues also say the controversy serves as an occasion for "a substantive national dialogue" about "how best to respect and protect participants in research studies conducted within the standard of care and how to define 'reasonably foreseeable risks' in this setting."
The phrase "standard of care" is at the heart of the matter. Basically, the NIH leaders say the SUPPORT controversy raises issues that apply to any research that aims to test and improve accepted medical practice.
Thus, the case could turn out to have far-reaching effects on future clinical research.
To underscore that, HHS announced Wednesday that it plans to hold a public meeting to discuss how federal regulations designed to protect human research subjects should be applied to studies that probe "standard of care treatment."
The upcoming meeting, whose date has not been set, will address how Institutional Review Boards should assess the risks of studies looking at current clinical practice and what "reasonably foreseeable risks" should be disclosed to study volunteers.
OHRP's six-page letter sent Tuesday to Alabama researchers suggests how complicated and subtle an issue this is.
The letter acknowledges that some doctors treating a premature infant might avoid giving oxygen at levels at either end of the range used in the SUPPORT study. But by enrolling their infants in the study, parents were waiving their children's right to such individualized treatment.
"Ultimately, the issues in this case come down to a fundamental difference between the obligations of clinicians and researchers," the OHRP's Lisa Buchanan writes. "Doctors are required, even in the face of uncertainty, to do what they view as being best for their individual patients. Researchers do not have the same obligation."
As a "crucial trade-off" in doing clinical research, Buchanan writes, "society requires that researchers tell subjects how participating in the study might alter the risks to which they are exposed."
Another effect of the controversy: HHS plans to set up a process for researchers and institutions to appeal the rulings of the Office of Human Research Protections "in those situations in which reasonable people disagree about the actions taken."
Currently, there is no appeal from the Office's rulings. Dr. Michael Carome of Public Citizen, an advocacy group that first complained about the SUPPORT study, says the OHRP letter is "an important step toward addressing a highly unethical trial."
But Carome said HHS's decision to allow "current similar trials to continue ... is an abject and unacceptable failure to protect human subjects in clinical trials."

We've probably all seen centrifugal force in action in one way or another, whether it be riding on a merry-go-round as a child, spinning a bucket of water upside and observing as the contents hug the insides of the bucket, or watching mud spinning off of a turning tire. In addition to making dizzying carnival rides, this force can be used in the design of many mechanical applications, where it is harnessed to control a variety of effects. One such example is a centrifugal governor (or engine governor), where a centrifugal force is used to regulate fuel supply to an engine.

engine is currently at the Science Museum in London, England.

How Does an Engine Governor Work?
Although the first centrifugal governors date back to 1788 when they were first patented by James Watt, the general principle behind their design has changed very little since then, and they can still be found in modern engines. The first centrifugal governors, like the one pictured above, were used in stream engines where they regulated the speed of the engine by controlling the amount of steam allowed to enter the cylinder. Today, centrifugal governors are most commonly found in internal combustion engines and turbines.
Before we start constructing and analyzing our own model, let's take a look at the parts of a typical engine governor:
A centrifugal governor, consisting of a spindle, two arms, two links, two flyballs, and a sleeve.
In the diagram shown above, we can see the geometry of a spring loaded centrifugal governor. In this model, the spindle is connected to the output shaft of the engine, which regulates the amount of fuel entering the engine cylinder through the throttle valve. The governor becomes activated when power supplied by the engine's output shaft causes the spindle to rotate at a certain speed; faster rotations cause more kinetic energy to enter the system. This is where centrifugal force comes into play — as the spindle spins at a faster and faster rate, the rotational motion causes the flyballs to be drawn outwards, which in turn causes the sleeve, links, and arms to rise as well. If the flyballs rise high enough (meaning that a certain threshold of kinetic energy from the engine has been transferred into the system), then the motion of the arms reduces the aperture of a throttle valve. The throttle valve reduces the rate of the fuel entering the cylinder, thus slowing the RPM of the engine. The image below shows the displacement of various parts of the governor, where the flyballs have risen in response to the speed of the engine.
The displacement of the sleeve, flyballs, arms, and links in response to the engine speed. Colors show displacement in meters.
There is one additional part in this engine governor, namely the spring. Although you can't see the spring in the model, imagine that it is connecting the sleeve to the top of the spindle so that as the sleeve rises up the spindle, it compresses the spring. The spring restricts the outward motion of the flyballs, and as the flyballs rise, the spring creates different equilibrium positions of the sleeve along the length of the spindle. These equilibrium positions occur at certain spindle RPM — at different speeds, the upward motion of the flyballs due to centrifugal force and the downward force of the increasingly compressed spring have a net force of zero, and the sleeve stays localized at a certain position along the spindle. Depending on the RPM of the spindle, the sleeve has different equilibrium positions along the spindle. The motion is stabilized by a dashpot acting as a damper in the system.
Simulating a Centrifugal Governor
We can use the Multibody Dynamics Module to simulate the governor's behavior, analyze the stress in the joints, and to determine the equilibrium positions of the sleeve's sliding motion along the spindle. In our model, hinge joints connect the arms to the flyballs, and the links to the sleeve. The sleeve itself is mounted over the spindle using a prismatic joint, and can freely slide up and down the spindle. The hinge joints in this model have one rotational degree of freedom, and the prismatic joint has one translational degree of freedom along the spindle axis.
The image below shows the von Mises stress in the arms and links of the governor, visualizing that the stress is most concentrated near the joints.

In addition, we can use the simulation to analyze the displacement of the sleeve along the length of the spindle. In the figure below, we can see the displacement plotted against the number of revolutions of the spindle. As can be seen in the graph, there are two equilibrium positions between 0 and 8 revolutions of the spindle. Just after 2 revolutions, since the RPM of the shaft has increased, the equilibrium moves to a new position between 0.033 and 0.038 m.
Relative displacement and equilibrium positions of the sleeve with respect to the spindle.
In the phase portrait below, we can see the relative displacement of the sleeve's sliding motion. This graph gives us a more detailed analysis of the sleeve's motion, and clearly shows the two equilibrium positions.

New Research Reveals That Most Employees Want a Do-Over Career
If while you were sitting at work a strange man walked up to you and handed you a magic wand that was said to hold magical powers that would allow you to abracadabra yourself from your current career to a new one of your choice would you do it?
A recent survey conducted by Parade magazine and Yahoo! Finance says you would. In fact, 60 percent of the great American workhorse would love to pack it up at their current job and make a career change.
This seems to be because the overall needs of employees' are not being met by their employers. For example, 60 percent of those surveyed said that they would rather have a more comfortable place to work than a less hectic commute, while nearly 60 percent said they would rather be given a 5 percent raise than expected to take two weeks vacation.
While workplace camaraderie can sometimes play a role in why some employees choose to stay at a job, 51 percent say that they would continue their friendships with the people they work with even if they moved on to a different job, while 49 percent say it's good riddance if and when the time comes to wave that magic wand.
More than half of employees believe getting ahead at work has more to do with office politics than anything else, while nearly 30 percent attribute it to hard work. Incidentally, the survey found that younger employees believed more in hard work to get ahead as opposed to the office politics propaganda that the older workers buy into.
However, waving a magic wand to change a person's career might not be enough to save them financially. Out of the 26,000 respondents, nearly 30 percent say if they got fired tomorrow they would have no savings to last until they found another job, while only 15 percent say they thought they would be able to retire by the age of 65.
The consensus is that it's going to take more than a little magic to meet the ever changing climate of the American working class.

Panoramic X-rays (also known as Panorex® or orthopantomograms) are wraparound photographs of the face and teeth. They offer a view that would otherwise be invisible to the naked eye. X-rays in general, expose hidden structures, such as wisdom teeth, reveal preliminary signs of cavities, and also show fractures and bone loss.
Panoramic X-rays are extraoral and simple to perform. Usually, dental X-rays involve the film being placed inside the mouth, but panoramic film is hidden inside a mechanism that rotates around the outside of the head.
Unlike bitewing X-rays that need to be taken every few years, panoramic X-rays are generally only taken on an as-needed basis. A panoramic x-ray is not conducted to give a detailed view of each tooth, but rather to provide a better view of the sinus areas, nasal areas and mandibular nerve. Panoramic X-rays are preferable to bitewing X-rays when a patient is in extreme pain, and when a sinus problem is suspected to have caused dental problems.
Panoramic X-rays are extremely versatile in dentistry, and are used to:
How are panoramic X-rays taken?
The panoramic X-ray provides the dentist with an ear-to-ear two-dimensional view of both the upper and lower jaw. The most common uses for panoramic X-rays are to reveal the positioning of wisdom teeth and to check whether dental implants will affect the mandibular nerve (the nerve extending toward the lower lip).
The Panorex equipment consists of a rotating arm that holds the X-ray generator, and a moving film attachment that holds the pictures. The head is positioned between these two devices. The X-ray generator moves around the head taking pictures as orthogonally as possible. The positioning of the head and body is what determines how sharp, clear and useful the X-rays will be to the dentist. The pictures are magnified by as much as 30% to ensure that even the minutest detail will be noted.
Panoramic X-rays are an important diagnostic tool and are also valuable for planning future treatment. They are safer than other types of X-ray because less radiation enters the body.
If you have questions or concerns about panoramic X-rays, please ask your dentist.
Excellent care from a professional staff!
Family oriented place with great staff! everyone is super friendly and very attentive to your needs. I will never go anywhere else!
