I got what you said the first time, so you didn't need to repeat it.
Even on the link you just provided size for size, on the sizes I checked, aluminum was NOT cheaper but was almost the same or slightly higher. Big chunks too I don't think it (your link) is a very good way to compare the two anyway...comparing your best deals out there is the real world method. When I do that, for me, aluminum IS higher. In fact I don't recall a time aluminum was ever cheaper than steel.
But I do get what you are saying.
In my area steel is a good bit less than aluminum size for size. I get a very good price on new steel but I buy a LOT more weight of aluminum.
I wouldn't consider buying metal online unless it was very short pieces of an odd size. They always seem too high to me. I have 2 steel supliers within 5 miles of my shop that happen to be on the way to work. I use 2 aluminum suppliers that deliver to my shop and one of them runs a free truck delivery once a week.

Discount is one of at least 6 steel yards that are all about 5 miles from my house/shop. They simply have a retail online catalog which makes it easy to get rough prices when quoting. They were charging 3/lb for drops, while Garelick (a block away) was only charging 2.25. The difference is in what's available. Garelick doesn't have much variety in drops due to not having a sawing/cutting operation as part of their business. Garlick will deliver anything that they can put on a flatbed free; discount wants 60 bucks.
I have yard hook ups at Discount as well, so I don't pay retail on full sticks either and I typically get a scale "reduction" on my drops too.
Most everything I make is pretty small, so I don't buy high volume.Syncrowave 250DX

yeesh!!! You guys make me so jealous!!! Basically, we just have one shop that supplies aluminum....they got the market over here....I wish I could buy a container full of aluminum, (as would everyone), but renting a lot to store it,
organize it and such, with the cost of land over here, that's why we pay so much....sorry I forgot to call and get prices....I"ll try on Monday as they are closed tomorrow....
p.s. and no, it's not on the way to work, but not too far away either...
with traffic, maybe 20 minutes away....I'm not late...
I'm just on Hawaiian Time
And Integrity has been a factor as well. With that said it is the warehouse with the biggest liars that I end up using the most because they have the extrusions I use the most and deliver for nothing... as opposed to the really helpful guys that use a local delivery truck that delivers everyday that costs me an extra $20 or so.

In Rural Iowa, Distance Makes Health Care Sign-Ups A Challenge
Originally published on Mon December 2, 2013 9:05 am
Broadlawns Medical Center has been serving low-income residents of Des Moines, Iowa, and the surrounding countryside for decades. Now there's a twist in Broadlawns' mission as a public hospital: helping people sign up for insurance under the Affordable Care Act.
On a recent Saturday morning, Jerrine Sanford traveled half an hour from the small town of Runnells to get her insurance questions answered at a hospital-run event.
Sanford, 47, is out of work because of a back injury. She's worried about the law's requirement that everyone have health insurance or pay a penalty.
She has been covered through IowaCare, which provides some services to people who haven't been eligible for Medicaid. But as Iowa expands Medicaid to include people who previously weren't covered, IowaCare is ending.
Sanford wants to know about her options. "Where our doctors are going to be, enrollment fees, if it covers dental coverage, eye coverage and hospitalization," she says.
With more than 200,000 Iowans lacking health insurance, there are lots of people asking questions like Sanford's but not many people available to answer them.
Iowa Insurance Commissioner Nick Gerhart says the state got about $600,000 in federal funding to pay for navigators, who help people understand their options and sign up for coverage. That's not much considering the task at hand. "You have to hire staff, train staff, hold events," he says. "I mean, that's expensive."
Right now, Iowa has only about a dozen full-time navigators and a few part-timers. "When you think that some of the navigators are going to be working in 60-plus counties, that's a heavy lift for just a few people, quite frankly," he says.
One of the organizations spreading the word is Planned Parenthood of the Heartland, which received a $217,000 navigator grant. Kyle Carlson, the group's director of legal and public policy, says it's trying to cover a broad swath of southern Iowa. The goal is to sign up 2,000 people through five navigators, which he calls ambitious.
But at least people in those counties have someone to help. In 27 of Iowa's 99 counties there aren't any navigators at all.
In those areas, people with questions have some options. They can turn to insurance agents or certified application counselors like Joe Heitritter.
Heitritter, director of outreach at Greater Sioux Community Health Center, which serves four rural counties in northwest Iowa, has been visiting local Head Start programs, churches and food banks, looking for people who need help. And he's getting some really basic questions.
"There are a lot of people we're seeing who've been uninsured for a lot of years," he says. "Just understanding what health insurance is, what premiums and deductibles are may be new to some people."
Heitritter says he and his colleagues have helped several clients narrow down their options, but he doesn't know of any who've finished the sign-up process yet.
Even with the resources of a hospital like Broadlawns, it's not easy.
Jerrine Sanford leaves her meeting with a financial counselor with a whole new set of questions. She'd hoped to qualify for Iowa's new health plan for low-income patients.
But she's been told her husband's disability payments may disqualify her. Sanford says she's tried to shop for other plans on the federal insurance marketplace. But like others, she's struggled to get the website to work. With her current coverage expiring at the end of the year, she's hoping to have some answers soon.
This story is part of a reporting partnership between NPR and Kaiser Health News. Sarah McCammon is a reporter for Iowa Public Broadcasting.
Even if the rollout of the online federal marketplace had gone off without a hitch, convincing millions of Americans to sign up for insurance wouldn't be easy. That's why the law includes funding for workers trained to help people find their way around the new system. In rural states with populations spread across hundreds of miles, those workers face an especially daunting challenge. Sarah McCammon of Iowa Public Radio reports.
SARAH MCCAMMON, BYLINE: Broadlawns Medical Center in Des Moines has been serving low-income residents of the city and surrounding rural areas for decades. And much like the patchwork system that confronts sick people without health insurance, this public hospital has been pieced together over time. Early-20th-century brick architecture is surrounded by newer wings with modern angles and big windows.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN: You would like to speak with a financial counselor?
MCCAMMON: On a recent Saturday morning, Jerrine Sanford came half an hour from the small town of Runnells, Iowa, to an event for people with questions about Obamacare.
JERRINE SANFORD: Because we are not able to afford insurance through our work or anything else right now. So we're trying to get involved in everything that we need to do so we don't get fined and get going with everything.
MCCAMMON: Sanford is 47 and out of work because of a back injury. Her daughter, a single mom, is a nursing assistant but she says she can't afford the insurance offered by her employer. They've been getting insurance through a program for low-income Iowans that's being phased out because of Obamacare. And they've come with questions.
SANFORD: Where our doctors are going to be, what type of enrollment fees we've got, if it covers dental coverage, if it covers eye coverage, hospitalization.
MCCAMMON: With more than 200,000 Iowans lacking health insurance, there are lots of potential questions awaiting to be answered but not many people equipped to answer them. Iowa Insurance Commissioner Nick Gerhart says the state got about $600,000 in federal funding for navigators, workers paid to hold outreach fairs at libraries and community centers and help people sign up for insurance.
NICK GERHART: That's not a lot of money to build up a statewide campaign. You have to hire staff. You have to train staff, hold events. I mean, that's expensive.
MCCAMMON: As of now, Iowa has only about a dozen full-time navigators and a few part-timers with a lot of ground to cover.
GERHART: Especially when you think that some of the navigators are going to try and work in 60-plus counties, I mean, that's a heavy lift for just a few people, quite frankly.
MCCAMMON: Planned Parenthood of the Heartland received a $217,000 to hire a handful of navigators responsible for a broad swath of mostly Southern Iowa. Kyle Carlson is the director of legal and public policy.
KYLE CARLSON: Our goal is to try to sign up 2,000 people through our five navigators, so it's a pretty ambitious goal.
MCCAMMON: Twenty-seven of Iowa's 99 counties don't have a navigator at all. In those areas, people with questions do have some options. They can turn to insurance agents or certified application counselors like Joe Heitritter, the outreach director for a health center that serves four counties in rural northwest Iowa. Heitritter says he's getting some very basic questions about how health insurance works.
JOE HEITRITTER: There's a lot of people who have been uninsured for a lot of years. And so just understanding what health insurance is and what premiums are, what deductibles are and the basics of health care that, you know, someone like me would take for granted is something that can be maybe new to some people.
MCCAMMON: Heitritter has been visiting Head Start programs, churches and food banks, looking for people who need help.
BETTY: Good morning. Betty.
MCCAMMON: And hospitals like Broadlawns in Des Moines are doing what they can to help patients learn about the health care law. Jerrine Sanford leaves her meeting with the financial counselor with a whole new set of questions. She'd hoped to qualify for Iowa's Health and Wellness Plan, a proposed alternative to expanding Medicaid. But she's been told her husband's disability payments may disqualify her.
SANFORD: So we have to wait and see what the decision's going to be and if they're going to switch me over to the health and wellness because we were over by $60...
MCCAMMON: Sixty dollars.
SANFORD: Sixty dollars I was over that didn't qualify me.
MCCAMMON: Sanford says she has tried to shop for other plans on the federal insurance marketplace. But like so many others, she struggled to get the website to work. With her current coverage expiring at the end of the year, she's hoping to have some answers soon. For NPR News, I'm Sarah McCammon in Des Moines. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

1 recipe
pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup
chopped onion
1 teaspoon
poultry seasoning
1 (10.75 ounce) can
condensed cream of chicken soup
1 (10.75 ounce) can
condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 cup
shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup
shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cups
frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
1 cup
sliced fresh mushrooms
salt and pepper to taste
This was the most awesome chicken pot pie ever!!! I used a whole onion and an 8 oz. container of sliced mushrooms from the produce aisle...I also used cream of chicken and cream of celery....that's what I had on hand. I also used fat free cheeses and 98% fat free soups and just added 1/2 cup skim milk. I bought 2 Pillsbury pie crusts and used all but one half of one to make the crust in a 9x13 casserole dish....I used the extra pastry to make flower embellishments on the crust. Will definitely make this again!!! Make sure and brush your crust with an egg wash to get it nice and golden and crunchy!!
At first glance i thought this would be a fantastic recipe. But after i made it for my family.... not so good. The inside of the pie was too runny, it did not thicken up at all. If i make it again i will definately use less soup or more chicken. The mushrooms also didnt help with the runny appearance, as they cook they tend to make excess liquid. And i will be sure to use other suggestions and use fresh vegies. The frozen made the pie taste really bland. Just not tast enough for my family.

This is one of my familys fave`s! I modify the recipe a bit by using a casserole dish to layer my chopped chicken on bottom,then I add my veggies etc. on top of that and the cheese is on top of that.I make a crust for the top by using 2 cups of self-rising flour,a stick of butter(real buuter) and chicken broth to make a batter that I pour on top and bake til brown.This is moist and delicious!
Excellent recipe! I made it last night and my husband and I loved it. I've never made chicken pot pie before, so I was a little worried, but I followed the recipe and it turned out great. My husband even took the leftovers to work today for some of his coworkers to try! Thanks Angie!
Ohh sooo good!! I prefer to make individual pot pies so I prepared everything as shown except I used Grands Flaky Crust Biscuits and lined the top and bottom of individual corning ware bowls, cooked for about 26 min. The crust was golden and flaky, the filling was hot and cheesy, my husband went back for seconds!!
This is very yummy and my husband raved about it. The only thing I added was 3 potatos, chopped and boiled. It's a great recipe for a cold winter night!
Oh, this is just FABULOUS!! I used a sheet of pie crust for the bottom, and a sheet of puff pastry dough for the top, which I sprinkled with a little Parmesan and nutmeg. I added a splash of dry white wine to the filling as well. And I used a can of Vegall instead of frozen veggies. Just downright sinfully yummy!
This was a great recipe that helped me please over 70 people at my church! A quick suggestion, you can Pilsbury Crescent dough for your pastry dough. (available in bulk at wholesale stores)

Davis named A-Sun Player of the Week after putting up career numbers
Requires Adobe Flash
Tuesday, November 16, 2010
Senior leader has Lady Bucs off to 2-0 start for first time since 1999-2000
, Ga. (Nov. 16, 2010)
- Senior captain
Tara Davis
(Murfreesboro, Tenn.) put up career numbers in wins against Chattanooga and Richmond over the weekend, and the Lady Buccaneer standout was recognized for her efforts by being tabbed Atlantic Sun Player of the Week, announced the league office Tuesday afternoon.
opened the year with a career-tying 23-point effort in the 77-60 victory at Chattanooga on Friday night. In addition to scoring, Davis also dished out seven assists and pulled down five rebounds against the 17th-ranked team in the CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Top 25 Poll. Then, on Sunday afternoon inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center, Davis netted a career-high 27 points en route to guiding the Lady Bucs to a 96-84 win over Richmond. Like she did against the Lady Mocs, Davis once again ended with seven assists and five rebounds versus the Spiders.
For the week, Davis averaged 25 points, seven assists, five rebounds and 2.5 steals in 36.5 minutes of work, marking the second career weekly honor for the Nursing major. Davis also set a career high and ETSU record with a 14-for-14 effort at the free throw line vs. Richmond and she has hit 25 straight freebies dating back to last season.
Davis and the Lady Bucs return to action Friday night when ETSU hosts Appalachian State to kick off homecoming weekend inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center. Tip is set for 7 p.m.

In a large trial, screening yearly for lung cancer hasn't reduced mortality rates. Why is this? Isn't cancer best treatable when caught early? Is this because lung cancer is hard to treat anyway, because yearly is not frequent enough, or why?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Biology Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for biology researchers, academics, and students. It's 100% free, no registration required.
There are a number of reasons, generally, why a screening test may fail to decrease cancer mortality rates:
In this case it appears that a chest radiograph isn't good enough at detecting lung cancer to manifestly improve mortality outcomes. The author's of the paper don't really specify why this is - though since they're just looking at lung cancer mortality, it's likely not #2.

Update Feb 25 2012: Warning, I may have discovered a bug inside the CadSoft EAGLE 6.1.0 software that may make the PCB look slightly different. My design files are meant for 5.11 so use that instead. You have been warned.
Main Features:
- X mode flying
- MPU-6000 gyro & accelerometer sensor for flight stabilization
- USB battery recharging on the transmitter, the copter plugs into the transmitter to recharge
- When the copter plugs into the transmitter, the user can synchronize to a random radio frequency
- Controlled using a Wii Classic Controller, which plugs into the transmitter
- Running a modified MultiWii firmware, which is open source, written with Arduino and Processing
- Square center body is 1.5" by 1.5"
- Propellers are about 45mm in diameter
- Diagonal motor to motor distance is 110mm
- Motors are supposedly "X-Twin" spare motors, they come with the propellers
- Flight battery is a single Li-poly cell, 3.7V, 350mAH, 20C
- Controller battery is a single Li-ion cell, 3.7V, 1000mAH
- Uses ATmega128RFA1 microcontroller for both copter and transmitter
- This particular ATmega has a built-in 2.4GHz transceiver, 16 possible channels, 250kbit/s or 2mbit/s max depending on the standard being used.
- The "arms" and "body" are connected by locking slots, making them easy to build and repair
- Motors slide right into the arm
- Two layer 1.6mm thick FR4 PCB used (this is the default for a lot of PCB manufactures), the components are all on a single side (easy to assemble)
- All open source project, schematics + PCB + code all available. Heavy use of Arduino and Zigduino involved.
Step 0 Come up with puntastic name
Pico... Copter... You get the idea. This project was originally named "PalmQuad" since it's small enough to fit in your palm, so if you might see some mention of this name in the code or pictures.
I originally finished building "version 1" in November, and wrote the Instructable in November. Then I went on vacation for a few weeks, and also school just started. Now it is February and I just finished "version 2", but since I've already written the majority of the Instructable, I have some bits of "version 1" text that I'll just
All project files are available to download in this instructable "step". It contains files for "version 1" only for reference purposes, please only use "version 2" files. Although I really recommend you only take my concepts and design everything from scratch yourself instead, just so there's absolutely no mysteries in your project.
If you are wondering about the lack of a flight video, see step 6 for an explanation.
Oh and I noticed that "AdBlock" stops Instructables from showing you all my pictures, so please turn it off.
I'm new to the site so I don't quite get it, only premium accounts have access to the pdf file? My cousin would love this, though
only if i had money and acsses to those parts... !
Awesome project :D
I don't understand how you made the circuit board and receiver.. You just took a PCB you had laying around, took all the componets off of it, and BOOM! quadcopter! Can you explain this to me?
They were custom designed and ordered from on online PCB manufacturer. BatchPCB is a popular one. He then soldered all the necessary components on.
I ordered the PCB's and built this. This is an advanced user project. The chip packages are QFN and a challenge to solder. Total cost was approx $200. I could not get parts of the TX code to compile, and had to modify. The author considers this a "old" project and does/will not support or help.
how to make pre account.... i want this download
Brilliant you made one! I bought one of the Hubsan branded ones which is fantastic, far easier but far smaller than the massive 5 foot bladed gas powered 60 size XCEL I had in my youth - that things was lethal!
Nifty way to charge it and avoiding RF interference. I am impressed, did you get three or one gyros in there?
Call it 'Quaddy' or 'Quadtastic!" or "4play"
i wanna this pdf and iam not haver premium account
plz can any one send to me
on email@example.com
Will you sell this project as a kit?
How much you will charge for one?
I want one for me.
first time to know about ATMega128rfa1..
and i wanna get one.
Very nice man. Less of a project than I would have imagined it to be actually.
I dont have the wii remote controllers can I use any thing else? How to use it?
Hit us with that price :3
does it fly???
I have viewed this project you have built, and was quite interested in making one my self, would you be able to help me out with getting the PCB's and programing it?
from where to get those 2 green plates 1 for quadracopter and 1 for transmitter and what is there plate number .plz tell fast i wanted to make and sir as i wanted to order somethings at digikey.com there are comming 3 options all are same but there is comming tape and reel,cut tape and digi reel. which one i should select...... plz tell fast sir plzzzzzzzzzz
I ordered all parts at Digikey, Sparkfun & ebay and ended up paying 190 euro incl. shipping to EU and printing 3 qc/tx pcbs. I was expecting something among 100 euro but I didn't want to go back after ordering the first parts :)
Batch ordered, a kit might cost something around 150 euros I'd guess.
It's amazingly easy to find everything you've listed here; no exotic parts or anything, in fact, hardest part is finding a cheap li-po.
Do you have any idea how much payload this thing can carry? Or what flight time you achieve with whatever battery you're using?
Impatiently waiting for my orders... 8)
Maybe i got an idea for you to use different propellers.
The problem with these propellers is that people put their fingers to near to it, or they get damaged when you hit something during flight, Maybe you remember thse kid toys :
i think if you raise the outer circle a bit (strip of thin hard sheet) it would improve the blade too (better earodynamics for end of proppellor.)
Instead of using jumper blocks, have you considered these plunger switches?
They're less of a hassle and they'll fit the same footprint assuming you're using 2 * thru hole .1 inch headers. If you're using SMT headers for the jumpers, still doable but will require bending the switch pins and perhaps a dab of hot glue.

Eva Podietz is one of the ASPCA's most dedicated volunteers. Scores of ASPCA animals have benefited from Eva's care, and the most recent addition to Eva's furry family is Bentley, a little Shih Tzu who suffered immensely before starting his new life.
Bentley came to us after a devastating kick to the head that left him with a dangerous brain hemorrhage, broken jaw and a broken skull, threatening to destroy his tiny brain stem. He could barely stand or move his legs.
Any sudden movements could have killed Bentley in those early days. ASPCA veterinarians provided critical head trauma care, medications to reduce fluid build-up in his brain, and comprehensive pain management. Our hospital staff could tell that Bentley was a fighter. He survived those initial days. Then the first two weeks. As soon as he could, Bentley began lifting his neck and wagging his tail to greet staffers. And one day, Bentley began to regain use of his legs!
But Bentley was still a bit scared of people, and he wasn't eating as well as they'd hoped. They placed him in foster care with Eva, and he quickly gained a pound and started to open up. "After a month it was clear it was an adoption, not a foster," Eva tells us. Now he is showered with love, attends doggy daycare and, despite everything he's been through, "doesn't seem to hold a grudge."
Bentley isn't Eva's first ASPCA rescue. Back in 2006, Cloudy came to us severely matted and suffering from multiple infections. He was also blind and had several back problems. We knew he needed a special home, and he found it with Eva, who has given him the best life possible. That's why we're extra glad to see Bentley earn a spot in such a wonderful home.
"They're the ASPCA's dogs; I'm just their caretaker," Eva jokes. "They've got lots of admirers and people who love them at the ASPCA. And everywhere! But especially at the A."
These pups were lucky to find Eva, and lucky to receive care thanks to ASPCA donors like you. Your donations fund our critical work to rescue animals from abuse and ensure their abusers face legal consequences. If now is a good time for you to give, please consider doing so today.
Have you fostered or adopted a cruelty victim? Tell us about it in the comments. And if you suspect you've witnessed cruelty, please report it. Dogs like Bentley and Cloudy are counting on it!

Comments On Jun 20, 2014:These wheel protectors make changing a tire so much easier. I had previously used tire irons wrapped in thick tape or strips of plastic to guard the wheels.

Check out our Top 10 Science Fiction movie picks.
|Top Mother's Day Movies
|There are a growing number of family movies, but many of them mostly feature the dad, such as CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN, FATHER OF THE BRIDE and COLLEGE ROAD TRIP, and in too many of them, the mother is dead or missing, such as THE GAME PLAN and FINDING NEMO. In a significant number of cases, the mother is the villain, such as AMERICAN BEAUTY, SOUTH PARK and SERIAL MOM. This doesn't help children develop a positive image of mothers. Two reasons for the missing mom or even the mean mom can be found in some of the lingering marketing rules of the entertainment industry. First, the entertainment industry believes that little girls will go to movies that little boys like, but little boys won't go to little girl movies. Walt Disney Company seemingly ran into that problem with the delightful entertaining movie ENCHANTED. The second rule is the expected scenario is the bad dad, so movies want to do the unexpected. There's a guideline in the press that you don't want the common story about the dog biting the man but the uncommon story of the man biting the dog. Whatever the reason, it would be nice to see more I REMEMBER MAMA movies. One way to do that is for the vast Christian audience to support the good, whether it features girls or boys, mothers or fathers, if it contains a Christian, biblical worldview. Here's MOVIEGUIDE®'s Best Movies for Mother's Day.

Okay, if you're not totally poisoned and If you're on a low-carb diet this stuff is totally within the rules.
This eggnog is low-carb and high-protein. It's so decadent and delicious it seems like it should be illegal. Check your diet rules, but if you're on a low-carbohydrate diet such as Atkins, Zone, Caveman, or one I'm working on, the "cavity healer" or "tooth" diet, this eggnog can be just the thing.
If you're lactose-intolerant either add a lactase pill or substitute your favorite <seedmilk plus calcium source> for the cow milk.
Adjust the recipe to conform to your rules and taste.
Here's the basic recipe:
quantity Ingredient
Milk 750ml
eggs 6 raw or boiled eggwhites, 1 or 2 yolks
olive and/or fresh flax oil 100ml
Cinnamon enough but not too much (it's fricking poisonous at more than 1 gram/day. see next step.)
Xylitol 1 level teaspoon - It's a natural tooth-healthy sugar
vanilla a few drops or a teaspoon.
A: see the next step.
Q: Other than being poisonous, such a rich drink is healthy?
A: Books such as Protein Power and the Atkins books explain body's metabolism and how getting your calories from protein and oil can be healthy.
When you quit carbs you'll need to eat a lot more oil than you're used to just to get enough calories. In the past I haven't managed to do this and have developed food cravings which broke the diet. My current "tooth-healing" diet isn't supposed to be a weight-loss diet, which makes it easier ingest enough fats and avoid food cravings. I haven't had bread, cookies, etc in months and don't miss them. I've got a lot more energy than I used to. I'm getting skinny but not losing weight, which means my muscles and skeleton are getting stronger.
"However, essentially all toxic materials in cinnamon are lipid soluble, Dr. Anderson says. Therefore, he uses a water-soluble extract."
"We recommend that people take ¼ to 1 teaspoon daily," he tells us. "Or if they want to take more, to boil cinnamon in water and pour off the soluble portion and discard the solid cinnamon."
Um, excuse me, but digitalis grows very organically and naturally, and, unless you have a heart condition, and take *just* *the* *right* amount, it can easily kill you. Or make you very sick, at least. Some idiots use it for weight loss, and wonder why they get high blood pressure and... symptoms of poisoning! Imagine!
The USA has nothing to do with it... I'm sure you can poison yourself with a number of things on your spice rack in any country in the world. For example, lemon grass is pretty toxic, so is clove and mace.
Heck, using regular cinnamon the way he described using cassia might have been worse! Why? It would have caused him to go into hypoglycemic shock... that is, unconscious with VERY low blood pressure. BTW, he could have *died* that way, in fact, a good deal more likely than the coumerin poisoning. That is, if he were alone and no one checked in on him for a day or two.
Also, coumerins are very natural. A large number of plants carry it, like king's clover, Mexican vanilla, and most things, to be honest, that taste like vanilla save the real thing. There are a number of commonly used herbal medicines that contain coumerins, and indeed, it's a part of the health benefit!
If you are all looking for a reputable source of properly identified herbs, consider buying organic products from a heath food store or herbalist. The standards are very different.
Sorry if I sound somewhat preachy. That always seems to happen when I speak English.
Thanx BayouMonroe for the clarification on Cassia/Cinnamon. I am a chartered Herbalist and I was unaware of this substitution.
I'd heard that a rounded teaspoon of grated nutmeg can kill you (from my Pub. Health prof a million years ago), AND that Victorian ladies, who wouldn't dare drink alcohol, used to get high on grated nutmeg.
I experimented with a 0.25 level teaspoon of grated nutmeg and had amazing energy levels for about 4 hours w/o any other noticable effects. I suspect that potency varies with nutmeg just as it varies with other plant-derived intoxicants.
Thanks to the influence of giant corporations, the FDA now allows a cheap alternative called "cassia" to be sold and labeled as "cinnamon" but unfortunately, cassia "cinnamon" contains coumarin--which is potentially toxic. It also thins the blood and can cause liver and kidney damage.
This link has an interesting and helpful chart on identifying true cinnamon.
Unfortunately, the USDA allows spice importers to sell these faux cinnamon products without declaring them as such--and food manufacturers are allowed to use the term "cinnamon" as a generic phase. However, you can avoid these potentially toxic cinnamon imposters by purchasing the authentic item, which is labeled "Ceylon Cinnamon."
Please shop around because unfortunately, there are many websites that take advantage of consumer health concerns by overcharging for their Ceylon cinnamon products.
I buy Ceylon Cinnamon directly from "Surfas" (a chef supply source). For SoCalifornia residents, they have a store in Culver City'; or you can order Ceylon Cinnamon online at www.culinarydistrict.com. It's pure, it's safe and it's delicious.
Note: when you are consuming real cinnamon, you will notice you don't need to use as much as the cheap commercial type--because Ceylon cinnamon is more fragrant and flavorful.
Bon appetite and good health!

Lori, Your mosaic is just beautiful! Your flowers appear to be a little farther along than mine. I have some of the perennial sweet peas too. They are so pretty but mine have no fragrance. I overplant with the annual sweet peas on the same garden gate.

fabulous mosaic. Your flowers look great to me; almost enough to make me want to garden again. But it's easier to just admire yours. (old and lazy). Um -- you could just drink the beer and then maybe the slugs and snails wouldn't bother you so much (lol).... we sure had to battle slugs when we DID garden -- that was when we lived back in Oregon.

Beautiful! I love peonies and have several pink ones in the front yard. They were gorgeous until a hail storm last month. Is your Sweet Pea a climbing vine? My mother had one when I was growing up and I've wanted one for years. Would you send me a clipping when the time is right, if that's what you have? Oh, and you haven't lived until you've stepped barefoot onto a slug and it squishes up between your toes! Yep, did that, too.

So many beautiful blooms, Lori! My eye went straight to the sweet peas. We always had those growing on the garden fence when I was a child. Thank you for bringing back pleasant memories!
Have you ever stepped on a slug on the porch at night ... in stocking feet? OY!

Shipping Container Cities to Shelter 2 Million Haitians From Hurricanes
Moreta and his team, Green Container International Aid, have been working non-stop to begin construction on their Container Cities. A pilot project has already begun in Jacmel, which lies along the Caribbean Sea, in the Southern part of Port-Au-Prince. They will start building emergency shelters as soon as they start receiving shipping containers, which can be quickly retrofitted into durable structures that can withstand the hurricane season. These basic structures will include new exterior paint, plywood floors, a Green Roof (geo-textile fabric, gravel layers, humus, vegetation), fabric covers over the top to protect them from the sun and collect rain water, a screen panel at the entry doors of the containers to provide for mosquito protection, and a foundation. After enough shelters have been provided for the victims, the homes can be further built-out and made more habitable.
Richard Moreta has recently been down to Haiti trying to secure shipping containers, determine the best ways to utilize them, and prioritize their efforts. The situation, as Moreta told us, is not good. Right now there are 2 million people living in tent camps, and when hurricane season starts in June, they will have no protection. Experts are predicting that a major hurricane landfall in Haiti is likely this coming season due to a weakening of El Niño, so hurricane-resistant shelters need to be constructed NOW in order to secure the safety of Haiti's disaster-stricken population. On top of that, many Haitians are now terrified of concrete buildings, and many do not want to be inside for fear that another earthquake will demolish it with them inside. Seismologists also fear that those cracked buildings will not be able to withstand hurricane strength winds.

I have been interested in building container homes for some time, I currently own a small construction co. and I might be interested in volunteering for such a project if that were possible. Thanks R.T.

This is great. There is another really good option out there… http://www.forzaenvironmental.com Their panel-system might be faster and certainly lighter. Could even be cheaper? Anyone heard of these guys?
May 15, 2010 at 7:57 pm
Please take a look at http://www.calearth,org. These structures are INEXPENSIVE and EASY to produce, can withstand earthquakes, floods, etc and use mostly local supplies.
While container dwellings can be excellent emergency shelter for people with money, the structures built using the Nadir Khalili method of building are far superior for Haiti.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Views: 182
Blizzard are fine for me and have extended my game into the 60yr old category.
The present blizzard discs have a majority of the the air bubbles in the rim which could affect the durability and reliablity of some of these discs.
I have only tried the bliz. boss, destroyer and katana.!
are you right or left handed/are u throwing back handed ? i have a few blizzards and telling you what they do is impossible.. you can get the same mold/same weight and they will fly differantly.. my local group ends up trading em around. just have to experiment and find the ones that work for you.. blizzards are light weight disc and i have found they give me good distance. ( i am bout a 275 to 325 foot thrower )... my best drivers are vibram rubber disc.. the unlace has wicked long range. my go to eat up the feet disc.
Blizzard technology allows less weight for the same mold profile, below 150g I think they float. Wind will affect the lighter weight by providing increased glide unless it is a head wind. Head winds require a heavier disc to be effective.
Heavier discs will always travel farther due to physics. Imagine throwing a whiffle ball, a baseball, and a cannonball. At some point the weight of the disc will hinder your ability to develop maximum velocity at release. It's all about velocity and mass. The glide is a bonus factor in certain wind conditions. The speed rating is better described as its resistance to drag.
I would only recommend "Blizzard" if you are having difficulty releasing at design velocity of any "standard weight" disc.
Champion is a plastic type. There are many plastic types. Blizzard is air pockets in the rim chemically created during the molding process to reduce overall weight while maintaining the shape and aerodynamics of a "standard" disc.
The best way to find your "right" discs is to throw as many as you can. Play It Again Sports at some locations have a great selection of used discs for a cheap price. Good to try a used one before spending the dough on a new one.
Some of my longer straighter discs are: Wraith, Flow, Surge, Nuke, JLS, Katana, Monarch.
Welcome to the club site and good luck on the course.
From Innovas website:
Our new Blizzard technology incorporates thousands of microbubbles into our durable Champion plastic. This results in high speed, premium plastic drivers in weights all the way down to 130 grams! Blizzard discs discs fly with almost the same stability as the equivalent model 20 grams heavier. Models under 140 grams are light enough to float in water! The Blizzard Champion Line has been adding distance for both pros and ams. The Blizard Champion Boss currently holds the Distance World Record at 255 meters.
I am right handed and I am a side arm thrower. I have been trying to develop a back hand throw, but I can't seem to get the same whip on it as side arm. That's what it sounds like though, that all blizzards fly a little different. I have a friend that just lost one, and I didn't know they were one of the farthest plastics on the market. My problem is a lot of my friends don't play; I'm the one with all of the discs. I don't throw standard discs bad, but when I found out that blizzards give so much distance I defintately became curious and I thought I would ask you guys. So thanks!
Like I told Wayne, I don't have trouble throwing standard discs but when I heard about the success blizzards have had I became interested. In my first message, I said I want a dominator or a destroyer I think unless there is something else out there that is worth considering. Plus, I think I have made up my mind on a TL for an approach and short straight holes. However, if I don't try the blizzard plastic I will use the champion plastic. I don't have many people around me that are interested in disc golf, I'm trying but I'm the one with the most discs. So I don't really know what to do for trying discs before I buy them. I have had that problem in the past; I assume something is going to work and then it just collects dust. I have always been involved with Innova. I think Discraft discs I have tried they just weren't the best and the latest Halo for latitude 64 has been the best but it has started turning left longer which I don't like. I'm open to recommendations. Thanks!
I made sure to check out Innova's website first, but here is a question I have for you. If I'm understanding you right, since I use a lot of discs at 170 or higher for a side arm throw, you are saying that a blizzard at 150-155 would work well for me and give me added distance? Good information, thanks.
Glad to find the site. Good luck on the course also.
Nope, I'm not saying that at all. I throw backhand, can't throw forehand to save my life, working on it.
So, maybe you can throw farther with Blizzard, maybe not.
Sounds like a lot of the community. I don't know I have been trying to work on backhand but there is something about it that I can't get the same whip on it as forehand. What's the secret behind it? Haha. What did you mean by "Blizzard discs discs fly with almost the same stability as the equivalent model 20 grams heavier?" So you are recommending to take the champion plastic approach instead of blizzard?
"Blizzard discs discs fly with almost the same stability as the equivalent model 20 grams heavier" is a direct quote from Innova'a website.
I've only been playing for a year, but I have tried an awful lot of discs. The way I understand it, the better the plastic (in the exact same disc mold) the more 'overstable' the disc is. THat seems to hold true in my case. For instance, I have Teebird discs in DX plastic and Champion plastic. I can throe th DX plastic and it goes where I want it to probably 80% of the time. I cannot get the Champion plastic to go were I want it to. Ever.
It just goes off to the left.
