Lindsey Vonn takes her twelfth win of the season with the Downhill
There are legends and then there is Lindsey Vonn. The Downhill Globe was already in the bag along with the Super Combined and the Overall yet Lindsey Vonn still has targets to go for in terms of race wins in a season and the most number of points in a season. With this win in the final Downhill of the season, Vonn now has 1908 points and is closing in on the record. Marion Rolland and Tina Maze joined Vonn on the podium for the race.
This win for Vonn was her twelfth in the season; her 17th podium of the season (the second time she has recorded this feat in her career) and for the third time she has won five World Cup Downhill races in a single season. And still she closes in on the all time points record in a single season.
Vonn was the last of the top seeds to start this final Downhill race of the season and from the off there was only going to be one winner. Ahead from the first split all the way down the course, Vonn was in determined form. The sun may have been on the course for longer than expected and may have softened the snow, but this did not slow the HEAD World Cup rebel down.
With the same slope to be used for the World Championships in 2013, Vonn has set her stall out for the 2013 World Championships. "In the morning I have another chance to make the 2000 point barrier," she explained, "with this snow it will not be easy but I will fight and give everything. I never thought it would be possible to make 2000 points as Hermann Maier was unbelievable."
"This has definitely been my best season," Vonn declared, "It is so good go in all the disciplines yet to win 12 times is just unbelievable," she continued. And the season is not over yet!

Series: Science and the Bible (22 entries)
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."
Series: Surprised by Jack: C.S. Lewis on Mere Christianity, the Bible, and Evolutionary Science (4 entries)
In this five-part series, David Williams responds to the book The Magician's Twin: C.S. Lewis on Science, Scientism, and Society by John West and the Discovery Institute, showing that C.S. Lewis was a very complicated thinker whose views are hard to line up exactly with any camp in the current debates over the compatibility of Christian faith and evolutionary science.
Surveying George Murphy's Theology of the Cross
If God himself is willing to die, particularly in such a gruesome way, then perhaps we should at least consider the possibility of God allowing the death of other creatures, too. But would this really be compatible with what we know of God through Scripture?
Series: Behe, Lenski and the "Edge" of Evolution (5 entries)
In this series, we reexamine the claim made by Intelligent Design proponent Michael Behe to have found a limit to "Darwinian" evolution in light of recent results from the laboratory of Richard Lenski.
Willing to be Wrong
The debate is often not about evidence, but about making sure that others do not transgress our interpretive boundaries and insist that we're wrong. We've bitten from the tree of knowledge and we love its taste.
Series: Decoding ENCODE (8 entries)
The BioLogos Foundation explains to the findings of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project and responds to the claims that its discoveries challenge the theory of evolution, especially regarding so-called "junk DNA".
Freedom and Grace in Tennessee
Towards the end of the last school year, the Tennessee legislature passed the Teacher Protection Academic Freedom Act, a law that became more popularly known as the "Monkey Bill." I was doing research in a Tennessee high school biology classroom the morning that I learned that the bill had passed.
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design (5 entries)
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
Gracious Dialogue
Our desire to engage in gracious dialogue with fellow believers who reject biological evolution has been receiving increased attention in both the Christian and secular press. More importantly, we are being joined in this reconciling project by our brothers and sisters in Christ who have often been defined primarily as our "opponents".
Series: Understanding Evolution: the Evolutionary Origins of Irreducible Complexity (6 entries)
One of the challenges for discussing evolution within evangelical Christian circles is that there is widespread confusion about how evolution actually works. In this installment, we examine evidence that proteins in irreducibly complex (IC) systems can form and refine new interactions through gradual mechanisms.
Fine-tuning and the "Fruitful Universe"
I ask the question, "Why is the universe so special?" Now scientists don't like things to be special; we like things to be general, and our natural anticipation would have been that the universe is just a common specimen of what a universe might be like.
Teaching the Whole Controversy
Part of our goal at BioLogos is to demonstrate that we in the Christian community can and must think deeply, but also broadly, if we want to do justice to the complexity of biological life, but also to the complexity of our lives of faith.
Teaching Science in Tennessee
Last week, Tennessee legislators approved a bill on science education (the Teacher Protection Academic Freedom Act) that has stoked controversy around the country.
Is There "Junk" in Your Genome? Part 4
Now that we have covered significant ground with respect to what various classes of pseudogenes are and how they arise, we are now able to properly evaluate antievolutionary arguments put forward in an attempt to discredit these lines of evidence for evolution.
Science is Empowering But Hard to Define
It is easy to be confused about what science is and what scientists do. In part, this is because scientists do so many different things in so many different ways.
Speciation and Incomplete Lineage Sorting
One consequence of speciation being a population event is that populations have genetic diversity – not all members of the population are genetically identical. For any particular gene, then, a population may have several slightly different forms present within it. These different forms are called alleles.
On Deciphering the Signature
The interesting thing about this is that Steve Meyer and I are probably really in almost the same exact position when it comes to our core beliefs. We differ primarily in one regard.
Ask an Evolutionary Creationist: A Q&A with Dennis Venema
Even if Darwin had never lived and no one else had come up with the idea of common ancestry, modern genomics would have forced us to that conclusion even if there was no other evidence available.
Series: From ID to BioLogos (8 entries)
In this series, Dennis Venema describes his personal journey that took him away from the Intelligent Design arguments toward the evolutionary creation worldview. Through careful and honest research, he discovered ID scientific reasoning to be analogy-based, in sharp contrast to evolutionary science, which was supported by concrete data. After accepting this view, God's presence ever strengthened him as he explored the compatibility between the Bible and God's creative mechanism.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
I am looking for a sidearm disc similar to the zone. I have an esp zone that was super stable, but I've used it so much that it is getting flippy. I have bought about 2-3 other zones that I flip over new out of the box. The only stability I need is so it won't flip over initially. I tried a flx drone, although it is very stable, it has a slight flip initially which I really dislike. From what I have heard the older zones are the really stable ones, so I am in the market for the 2009 or earlier models. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on other discs to try similar to the zone.
I have tried:
flx drone
esp wasp
vibram vp
gateway warrior (very close to the zone)
star gator
I know about the max, whippet, demon, etc...but I want a putter/mid like disc.
Any help would be great.
Views: 474
That sounds good. I will take 2 green and 2 orange. I will paypal the account soon.
Thanks! Hopefully they are what I've been looking for.
it's not the disc that i the problem. Zones are great. it's probably your grip or throwing motion
Got your paypal already. They will go out tomorrow.
Might be the Zones. There is quite a variation in dominess between the 2009 tournament stamped Zones versus the stock stamped Zones.
But the 2009s I have are as overstable as a Zone ought to be. I gave each one a throw.
I have one from a few years back, hot pink, super flat. I got it in the 2009 Memorial players pack (tied for 11th in MA1) I would let that go for just about anything. hit me up if you want to make a trade.
They are in the mail. You should have them Monday.
The orange ones are table top flat. The green ones have the slightest hint of a dome. To me they threw the same, but I throw RHBH.
If the green ones won't do, keep them in new condition and you can swap them for flat orange ones, or anything else I might have that you would want. Let's do any swapping at IOS #50 or some other Illinois tournament I come out for.
I like your style Bruce.
You want Supercolor 2008 Worlds Zones. ALWAYS FLATTOP. Very stable, I have 5. 1 Ive used since 2008 and its STILL stable, you can barely see the stamp. Its a perfect Zone (imo)
Hey Bruce, are you planning on going to any tournaments coming up? I was hoping I could trade a couple of those zones for other ones, or some other discs. I only threw them each once, and 2 of them were a little flippier than I like. I am playing Mokena's Iron Leaf tournament this sunday. Let me know.
My email is: email@example.com

JOHNSONBURG – With a pinfall victory just 47 seconds into his match, Johnsonburg senior Max Zimmerman strutted off the mat Thursday night with 99 career wins to his credit. While the Rams lost 58-11 to visiting Kane, Johnsonburg head wrestling coach Tom Launer had nothing but praise for his senior standout.
"Max Zimmerman is doing good, he worked the whole year at getting down to 135 pounds, he's been there for the last two or three matches and he's looking good, I think it's a good weight for him," Launer said. "I don't think he was big enough to be at 145 but he's doing a great job at 135 pounds.
"He's sitting on 99 wins so hopefully next Thursday night, he gets his 100th win here at home."
Zimmerman started his match at 135 pounds with a takedown 16 seconds in to take a 2-0 lead and later pinned Kane's Brandon Kowatch at the 1:13 mark.
The Rams first got on the board facing an 18-0 deficit after three forfeits when senior Jesse Wolfe made his way to the mat in the 125-pound bout.
Wolfe started out strong with a takedown 20 seconds into his match to take an early 2-0 lead; back-to-back combinations gave Wolfe six back points and an 8-0 lead; a late takedown gave the senior a 10-0 cushion after one period.
In the second period, Wolfe scored a reversal at the 1:42 mark followed by two back points at 1:12 to take a 14-0 lead. After giving up a one-point escape, Wolfe sealed the match with a takedown with 19 seconds left in the second period for a 16-1 technical fall.
"Jesse Wolfe wrestled another good match, a dominating performance and he's really doing a good job piling on the points," Launer said.
That was it for the Rams in the win column as Mitchell Schloder and Eric Bevacqua were unable to come up with victories for the home team.
Schloder fell victim to an early takedown and later three back points to end the first period facing a 5-0 deficit at 160 pounds.
In the second period, Kane's Mike Swartwood scored a takedown at the 1:44 mark of the second period and three back points at the buzzer gave him a 10-0 advantage; Swartwood cleaned up shop in the third period with a reversal 30 seconds into the period and three back points with 38 seconds left to earn a 15-0 technical fall.

"Would purchase again!"
By Rachael Stubblefield
Comments: Purchased 3 tags as gifts, key chain has larger ring, very durable and easy to use. Removed the plastic baseball charm b/c it looks cheap compared to actual dog tag. Engraving is centered and easy to read (I used all 4 lines for a poem). Dog tag is shiny and leaves finger prints which is no issue for me. Shipped in appropriate amount of time. Will do business again
"Great keychains"

Comments: I am a principal at my school and ordered one of each of the different sport key chains for the the coaches in my school. I was able to add our school logo, so they looked really sharp and the coaches thought they were great.

If I upgrade my damage with perks in the One-Handed skill tree, does it also increase the damage of a conjured One-Handed sword?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Arqade is a question and answer site for passionate videogamers on all platforms. It's 100% free, no registration required.
It seems they are confirmed to benefit from the One-Handed skill: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/One-Handed (first sentence under the One-Handed Skill heading):
So with that in mind, I would only assume the perk also applies to it.
Yes. Your conjuration skill will increase when you create the sword but after that it's treated like a normal sword.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Being very new to the game I was planning on purchasing an R-Pro Dart just because I threw one and it felt good.
Now my friend says I should get the R-Pro Ryno because it will do the same things except better and easier.
Could I get some more opinions on this?
slkfis bob

Rhyno...and I love mine. That being said throw a rhyno first. Then you will have your own reference on how it feels (vs a dart). I have tried various other midrange and putters and can't throw/ don't like any of them including the dart. Best advice buy what feels right not looks cool or is suggested by someone. Putter is the bread and Butter.
I have never thrown a dart, but I am in love with my rhyno
Get a PRO or Pro Line Rhyno, not R Pro. There are more rare, but are the most stable out of all the Rhynos that are out there. There are still some available out there on the web.
These discs fly about as different as 2 discs can fly. Really the only thing similar about these are the plastics... R-pro. The Rhyno is super overstable and is my main upshot disc and I use it for shorter drives since when I throw it hard it will go straight as an arrow and not turn over. The Dart is pretty understable and if you throw it hard it will turn over and not come back. I started off putting w/ the R-pro Rhyno, because I loved the feel of the plastic and the flat top, but after about 6 months of playing I figured out that the Rhyno has little glide and will drop like a rock.... when you pair that with its hard fade I was missing a lot of my longer putts short and left (I throw rhbh). So looked for a less stable disc w/ more glide and settled on the R-pro Dart. Definitely many other putters out there, but everyone finds what works for them.
So..... Dart or Rhyno..... I'd say both! :)
I putt with a rhyno a lot and also have a dx dart. The dart has lots of glide and is nice and straight for putting but will turn over if you throw it off the box. The rhyno is super stable with not a lot of glide and drops quick. If you hyzer putt the rhyno may work well for you but if you are throwing straight at the basket the dart may be the better disc, especially if it feels good in your hand. That is the key to a putter, what feels good to you and how your style works with it. My go to is an omega supersoft
Yup, that about says it..... tried the omega supersoft the other day, very nice putter as well.
Champion Dart !
Never listen to your friends!
But honestly, since your friend won't be throwing your shots for you, get what feels right for you. They are probably both good discs but you are the one for whom it matters. At least see if you can get a chance to throw both discs and then compare.
My bag has some discs in it that my friends have and a lot of discs that they don't.
put both in your bag, and I bet you will use them each for different situations. Chances are, you will not be saying " should I throw ryno or dart?" the dart being understable and ryno being overstable.
Being new to the game, I would learn the dart first. Learning how to throw understable discs will make you a better discgolfer. You will understadn the game better, and the evolution of discs. When you learn the dart, you will see the need for the ryno in your bag.

The American Quarter Horse AssociationJuly 30, 2013
AQHYA embarks on a national community service and fundraising project to support important equine research studies.
The American Quarter Horse Youth Association is teaming up with the American Quarter Horse Foundation to become "Heroes for Horses." The two groups are embarking on a national community service and fundraising project to support the important equine research studies that take place at veterinary schools across the country.
The Foundation-funded equine research projects cover a diverse range of research related to the health, welfare and utility of the horse. For example, current projects focus on controlling and treating laminitis, the study of immunizations and vaccinations for infectious diseases, as well as genetic and musculoskeletal injury treatment.
The goal is to build awareness nationally, regionally and through local affiliates of the importance of research, the need for funding and to introduce young people to a career in the field of equine research.
Local affiliates will raise funds for equine research and provide local community service hours for youth members. Points will be awarded for the amount of money raised and community service hours completed through local affiliates. The points will be leveled by the number of members in each affiliate group.
The top three "leveled" affiliates will receive points toward educational awards.
The top individual national winners will receive trips to the 2014 Bank of America Youth Excellence Seminar and Built Ford Tough AQHYA World Championship Show and be interviewed in The American Quarter Horse Journal.
The Heroes for Horses campaign, educational awards and trips to YES and Ford Youth World are generously underwritten by Deborah Hearst and Angela Wade.
"We greatly appreciate the support of Deborah and Angela," said Chris Sitz, senior director of the American Quarter Horse Foundation. "Their passion for horses and generosity contribute to the success of this nation-wide community service and fundraising project."
Additional support for educational awards made possible by the Burns Family Foundation.

Got an older Syncrowave 300....built in 1985, Single Phase...and want to hook it up 230 Volts.
The manual shows hook up is 2 hots.....My supply is 2 hots, a neutral and ground.
I can figure out the ground...but what should I do with the Neutral wire?
Anyone out there familiar with this older machine?

Little help regards Syncrowave 300
The neutral is not used in your application. The grounded conductor is attached to the frame of the machine. There should be a lug for this purpose close to where the two hot wires connect.XMT-300 with S-64 wire feeder.

Mushrooms in Mycoremediation Can Clean Up Oil Spills
http://www.californiagreensolutions.com ... ntent=3660
"Paul Stamets has been working with practical growing techniques and applications of fungi (mushrooms) for many years. This scientist / entrepreneur has tested his "Mycoremediation" techniques on oil spills and offers a solution for the long-term cleanup that will be a part of the Gulf and possibly the Eastern coastline, as well, for many years as beaches, wetlands, and the ocean floor are rehabilitated. This is a long term engagement.
THE PROBLEM: Oil is a Complex Mixture of Toxic Hydrocarbons
Not many people, even experts, fully grasp the diverse range of toxins that are present in oil. Bunker C oil is used as a fuel, particularly in cargo ships, and is especially 'dirty'. See the list at Stamets' website.
Below is a reprint of Stamets' article that provides his overview of the oil remediation process available through Mycoremediation.
Tell your friends about this process. We need to educate people not only about the possible solution... but engage entrepreneurial and community efforts to grow the necessary inventories of the appropriate fungi to clean up this massive oil spill's impact.

PAUL STAMETS' Statement on Mycoremediation and its Applications to Oil Spills
The BP oil spill has inflicted enormous harm in the Gulf of Mexico and will continue to do so for months, if not decades, to come. I have many thoughts on this disaster. My first reaction is that when the skin of the Earth is punctured, bad things can happen. Clearly, this disaster could and should have been prevented. Despite all their assurances of safety, BP and/or BP's subcontractors, failed to ensure the functionality of the emergency equipment on the Deep Horizon rig. The oil industry claims that further regulation will handcuff them, but it is now obvious that more steps need to be taken to prevent a catastrophe like this from ever happening again. However, this spill did happen, and we now must deal with the aftermath.
Although estimates have been that BP could be liable for more than 14 billion dollars in clean up damages, very few in the media have mentioned the long-term, generational consequences of this oil spill. There will inevitably be a surge in cancer cases, widespread degradation of wildlife habitat, and an array of diverse and complex strains on local communities, our nation, and the planetary ecosphere as a whole. We all know that the seas are connected, and ultimately our biosphere suffers globally when suffering locally. Now as the hurricane season approaches, we may see catastrophes converge to create what may be the greatest ecological disaster in hundreds of years.
Toolchest of Solutions Needed
While we will need a wide array of efforts to address this complex problem, mycoremediation is a valuable component in our toolset of solutions. Mycoremediation has demonstrated positive results, verified by scientists in many countries.
However, there is more oil spilled than there is currently mycelium available. Much more mycelium is needed and, fortunately, we know how to generate it.
Here is what we know about mycoremediation, based on tests conducted by myself, my colleagues and other researchers who have published their results. (See attached references.)
What we know:
1. More than 120 novel enzymes have been identified from mushroom-forming fungi.
2. Various enzymes breakdown a wide assortment of hydrocarbon toxins.
3. My work with Battelle Laboratories, in collaboration with their scientists, resulted in TAH's (Total Aromatic Hydrocarbons) in diesel contaminated soil to be reduced from 10,000 ppm to < 200 ppm in 16 weeks from a 25% inoculation rate of oyster (Pleurotus ostreatus) mycelium, allowing the remediated soil to be approved for use as landscaping soil along highways. (Thomas et al., 1999)
4. Oil contains a wide variety of toxins, many of which are carcinogens.
5. Mycelium more readily degrades lower molecular weight hydrocarbons (3,4,5 ring) than heavier weight hydrocarbons. However, the heavier weight hydrocarbons are reduced via mycelial enzymes into lighter weight hydrocarbons, allowing for a staged reduction with subsequent mycelial treatments.
6. Aged mycelium from oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) mixed in with 'compost' made from woodchips and yard waste (50:50 by volume) resulted in far better degradation of hydrocarbons than oyster mushroom mycelium or compost alone.
7. Oyster mycelium does not degrade keratin-based hair as it produces little or no keratinases, whereas other mold fungi such as Chaetomium species (which include some high temperature-tolerant leaf mold fungi) produce keratinases.
8. Worms die when put into contact with high concentrations of hydrocarbon saturated soils, but live after mycelial treatments reduce the toxins below the lethal thresholds.
9. Spring inoculations work better than fall inoculations as the mycelium has more time to grow-out. Bioregional specificities must be carefully considered.
10. Amplifying native mushroom species in the bioregion impacted by toxic spills work better than non-native species.
11. More funding is needed to better understand and implement mycoremediation technologies.
12. Oil spills will occur in the future -- we need to be ready for them!
What we don't know:
1. The effect of salt water on the growth of mycelium on hair mats soaked in oil. The Presidio project with Matter of Trust did not test the hair mats used to soak up the Cosco Busan oil spill in San Francisco bay. The hair mats that were tested were ones that were put into contact with motor oil and Bunker C oil collected from the bowels of the Cosco Busan, without saltwater.
2. The differential gradients of decomposition of the complex oil constituents from contact with Oyster mushroom mycelium. Different toxins degrade at different rates when placed into contact with mycelium.
3. The variables that influence the success of mycoremediation, particularly since the targeted toxins are often complex mixtures of volatile and non-volatile hydrocarbons.
4. How many other species of fungi could be applied for mycoremediation beyond the few that have been tested? Up to now, Oyster mushroom mycelium (Pleurotus ostreatus) has been tested successfully but there are literally thousands of other species yet to be tested for mycoremediation.
5. How each fungal species used pre-selects the subsequent biological populations and how these further enable plant communities as habitats recover from toxic waste exposure?
6. Whether or not the mushrooms grown on decomposing toxic wastes are safe to eat.
7. To what degree of decomposition by mycelium of toxic soils makes the soils safe for food crops.
8. How economically practical will it be to remove mushrooms that have hyper-accumulated heavy metals -- will this be a viable remediation strategy? Which species are best for hyper accumulating specific metals?
9. How to finance/design composting centers around population centers near pollution threats.
10. How to train -- on a massive scale -- the mycotechnicians needed to implement mycoremediation.
11. How to fund 'Myco-U's', learning centers with emphasis on implementing myco-solutions to human made and natural catastrophes.
12. How extensively and diversely will mycoremediation practices be needed in the future?
How can we help?
Knowing that the extent of this disaster eclipses our mycological resources should not be a reason to not act.
I proposed in 1994 that we have Mycological Response Teams (MRTs) in place to react to catastrophic events, from hurricanes to oil spills. We need to preposition composting and mycoremediation centers adjacent to population centers. We should set MRTs into motion, centralized in communities, which are actively involved in recycling, composting and permaculture -- utilizing debris from natural or man-made calamities to generate enzymes and rebuild healthy local soils.
I see the urgent need to set up webinar-like, Internet-based modules of education to disseminate methods for mycoremediation training so people throughout the world can benefit from the knowledge we have gained through the past decade of research. Such hubs of learning could cross-educate others and build a body of knowledge that would be further perfected over time, benefiting from the successes and failures of those in different bioregions. The cumulative knowledge gained from a centralized data hub could emerge as a robust yet flexible platform that could help generations to come. Scientists, policy makers, and citizens would be empowered with practical mycoremediation tools for addressing environmental disasters.
There are additional opportunities here. By encouraging strategically placed gourmet mushroom production centers near debris fields from natural and human-made disasters, we can open a pathway for mycoremediation.
Compost -- Entrepreneurial Solution
The 'aged compost' that is produced after mushrooms are harvested is rich in enzymes -- a value-added by-product and this 'waste' product is aptly suited for mycoremediation purposes. What most people do not realize is that most mushroom farms generate this compost by the tons and are eager for it to be used elsewhere.
On a grand scale, I envision that we, as a people, develop a common myco-ecology of consciousness and address these common goals through the use of mycelium. To do so means we need to spread awareness and information.
Please spread the word of mycelium.
Educate friends, family and policy makers about mycological solutions. Bring your local leaders up the learning curve on how fungi can decompose toxins, rebuild soils and strengthen our food chains. What we lack is the widespread availability of mycologically skilled technicians and educators and a more mycologically informed public. We need a paradigm shift, a multi-generational educational infrastructure, bringing fungal solutions to the forefront of viable options to mitigate disasters. An unfortunate circumstance we face is that the field of mycology is poorly funded in a time of intense need.
Books for Mycological Awareness
To support this expanded mycological awareness, I offer my books as resources -- especially Mycelium Running: How Mushrooms Can Help Save the World and Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms.
Also, please see Stamets' talk on Ted.com -- this is an excellent primer for those wanting to understand how mushrooms and fungi can help mitigate disasters and heal ecosystems.
Let's become part of the solution.
We may not have all the answers now but we can work towards an integrated strategy, flexible in its design, and yet target specific to these types of disasters. We should work in preparation to resolve ecological emergencies before and after they occur. Together, we can protect and heal our communities and ecosystems. "

En español | It's 11 o'clock on a rainy night in New York, and Susan Sarandon is rocking out in Marty's Room, a live-music space within SPiN New York, a Ping-Pong nightclub she helped launch five years ago with a handful of partners. Among those partners is Jonathan Bricklin, 36, a film writer-editor linked romantically to Sarandon despite their three-decade age difference. On the stage singing her pipes out is an aspiring pop musician whom Sarandon hired a while back to staff SPiN's front desk.
Sarandon, dressed in work-style boots, leggings, a polka-dot sweater and a beret, is feeling the vibe. She swings her arms over her head and moves with the groove, comfortable dancing alone in the crowd.
Poll: Susan is a sexy boomer. But, is she the sexiest? Vote now!
Style: 10 must-have wardrobe items for women at 50+
It's not just the music that's got Sarandon juiced. It's the moment: After 67 years, the woman known as much for her social activism as for her acting understands what brings her joy. "It's the simple things," she says. Good food. Good friends. Sunsets and sunrises. "With age, you gain maybe not wisdom, but at least a bigger picture," she continues, wearing a safety pin in one ear and a silver ring on her thumb, "and you say, 'OK, these are the important things. The rest is just details.' "

With offshoots in L.A., Milwaukee, Toronto and Dubai, United Arab Emirates, the club, located a few blocks from Sarandon's loft, has turned the actress into a self-described Ping-Pong propagandist. "Ping-Pong cuts across every demographic, age and body type," Sarandon says. "Girls can beat their fathers. And even if you're old, you can play it forever."
The club has become a big part of the life Sarandon reinvented for herself when she and actor Tim Robbins, now 55, her partner of 23 years and the father of two of her three children, split in 2009. Though both have been vague about the reasons for the breakup, Sarandon points to an internal change launched by her performance in Exit the King on Broadway that spring. The play by Eugene Ionesco is about confronting mortality. "You can't do a meditation on death and stay in a situation that's not authentic," she says. "It made me examine where I was in my union and in my life, and to have discussions about making changes."

Polyken 108FR Flame Retardant Double Coated Cloth Carpet Tape is a double-sided cloth tape with flame retardant synthetic rubber adhesive. It is designed with a flame retardant cotton cloth and synthetic adhesive system that complies with F.A.R. 25.853(a). Applications for Polyken 108 Double-Coated Carpet Tape include carpet installation on interior floors and on stairs of aircraft. It is used by companies such as Boeing, Douglas, Lockheed, major national and international airlines, as well as refurbishers. Polyken 108PE and Polyken 108FR is the same as Polyken 108 and just refers to the fact that the rolls ship with a PE (Polyethylene) release liner and is FR (Flame Retardant). Polyken 108FR natural rolls are cut from logs so various widths are available for purchase (the logs ship on standard Polyken cores). Polyken 108FR black comes pre-slit from Polyken so only the 2-inch wide size is available (Polyken ships them on cores labeled as Polyken 108).

Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.

We're sorry, there are no episodes of "Eastbound & Down" available to record on your "East Coast " lineup in the next 14 days.
After substance abuse and insanely self-destructive and obnoxious behavior throw a knuckle ball at his Major League Baseball career, former pitcher Kenny Powers retreats to his North Carolina hometown, where he takes a job teaching physical education at the middle school he once attended. But another chance at potential big league stardom -- or so he thinks -- takes Kenny ``down Mexico way,'' where he thrills the locals as only he can before he returns to the U.S. a changed man. Or is he? The colorful and frequently profane sitcom comes from executive producers Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, among others, and stars Danny McBride (``Tropic Thunder'').

Towards the end of last year, I purchased a new Dynasty 200 DX that included the new arc start board and the 4 AC waveforms (like the 350 DX has). This was my second 200 as I had one a few years back when I was doing a good bit of mobile work. That unit was great and the only problems I had with it were getting the tig start parameters figured out so I could get good consistent arc starts. As most of you know, there have been a few threads on this subject and at one point there seemed to be a batch of arc start/HF boards that had gone bad. I don't think it was a huge problem but it was there nonetheless. Anywho, my first unit was fine and after getting a handle on how to set the tig parameters, I had no issues. I ended up selling that one after the mobile stuff I was doing dried up.
Fast forward to late September 08' and I was in the market for another 200. I even waited a bit to make sure I was getting the new and updated version. I have had it for about 3 months now so I thought I would give my initial impressions regarding the new features.
First, the AC waveforms are a nice addtion to the machine. The older units had the "advanced" squarewave (ASW) only. In addition to the ASW setting,the one I have really started liking is the "soft" squarewave (SSW) for most of the stuff I do. The arc is noticeably softer and it creates a nice fluid puddle. The ASW always worked fine but I really notice a difference in how the filler seems wets into the base better when I have it on SSW. I especially notice this when using 5356 filler. The other thing I have noticed about welding in the SSW mode is that no matter what, the beads usually don't have the "graininess" to them that so many people have complained about. In fact, the only time I ever see it is when I have to stop and restart. It really wasn't a huge issue for me on my old unit but I thought it was worth mentioning since it seemed to be a factor for a lot of guys.
The other two waveforms, sinewave and triangular, are not really something I use at all. I have done lots of experimenting with them on my 350DX but I don't really like either one and honestly, have not found a use or a need for them. YMMV.
Now for the REALLY big deal. The new arc start board (Blue Lightning) is a HUGE improvement over what was in the old unit. IIRC, on the old 200's the factory default for tig start parameters were set for a 3/32" ceriated tungsten. It seems like this created a lot of start issues because people were using all different kinds of tungsten and not properly setting the tig start parameters which have to be accessed via a hidden menu. Well, now there are preset start parameters for all tunsten sizes from .040" to 1/8". You still have to access them via a hidden menu but now you just switch to the specific tungsten size and all values are optimized for that particular size. You can also switch to a "general " mode where you can have access to all 5 of the start parameters and set them to whatever you want. I would actually recommend that anyone thinking about buying a new 200DX download and read the manual where it talks about the advanced funtions. The whole section on tig start parameters is explained pretty well and there are graphs showing you what each parameter affects.
In speaking with one of the techs in tig applications, they have discovered that using a higher start amperage coupled with a lower start time and start slope times, you get much better and much more consistent arc starts (keep in mind that all these settings are in milliseconds). On the older units, you didn't have the ability to change the start slope values as they were fixed. Now, as I said before, you can basically set those values to anything you want. However, I have run tests on all the tungsten sizes with their preset values and can tell you that they all work very, very well. Hopefully this is of some help and interest. If you have any questions on anything else, feel free to ask.
Oh and btw, here is a job I just finished for one of my clients. Some of you old timers have seen these before but they are some aluminum handtrucks that I modify and they ultimately become compressor wash systems for helo engines. In the first pic you can see the two side by side. I have to cut out the two stock straps and weld in some formed ones to hold the tanks. The other stuff I just have to sand down the paint in the area and weld the parts on. I used the new 200 on this job and can tell you I really put it to the test. There are thicknesses from 1/8" to 1/4" on these things and there is 30 minutes of arc time into each one. Three hours total work into each one and there were 15 this time. Oh, all with an air-cooled torch.

Thanks. Very informative as well as subjective.
I'd been waiting for your evaluation.
Yep, thanks KB, nice report.
I went into "GEN" with mine a couple of days ago. I had a guy give me a AC condensor from a Subaru OutBack to weld on 2 of the tubes.
I just went to gen and dropped the start to 5 amps and set my max at like 20 and played a bit on a root bear can then just welded it up perfect. The bead was about 1/16th" wide and about a 1/4th" long and held perfect a 175 psi.
And the crazy and cool part was I used the 3/32 lanth that was already in it!!
Used 1/16th 4043 filler. Also SSW.
Miller done some good work here IMO.
It took me longer to dig thru the manual and reset the machine than all the welding stuff.

Fusion King,
You mean you really looked something up in the owners manual. Does that thing really have good information available.
I thought you were just supposed to ask a question on the board?

Hey KB great job on the write up as usual, but if your going t post pics of your work don't forget the BEADS man!Dynasty 200 DX

All kinds of Smith OA gear
Actually I normally at least scan the entire manual before I do much. Like most folks there are so many functions it is somewhat overwhelming at first.
Sorta knocks the edge off that way for me.
I read maps before I go on trips also and even stop and get directions at times as well.
I did whine some about my early model Dynasty if you read back a ways on one of those Dynasty 200 bashing threads and KB came on and told me how to set the start parameters better. It helped as well. In fact it basically ended the thread IIRC.
I wish he would do a write-up on his 350P as well for that matter.
And KB don't worry about long....long is good. We like DETAILS like settings and prep and all that juicy stuff

in the soft sq arc setting, does the machine tail out different? Seems like that area would change some with the new SSA waveform? (ac aluminum welding)
I guess I musta missed your post, sorry about that. Anywho, the newer 200 does tail out much better than the old version, especially on SSW. Even on the advanced square wave setting it is noticibly better.
This new version acts different in a lot of ways compared to the old. In addition to what I have already described, the "fan on demand" feature now works differently. Instead of the machine gettting hot and then the fan turning on due to thermal activity, the fan now kicks on shortly after arc start and runs until post flow is complete.Dynasty 350DX

I've had arc start problems a few times(not a "new" machine, bought it in late '07), but never even realized there were adjustments for it. I'm one of those "turn it on and go" guys I'll have to dig into my hidden menu and mess around with it, the problems are mainly when I use 1/16" tungsten.

I figured it would be better, just by rounding out the very sharp arc. Good to hear they improved it all around.
The way the fan runs makes the most sense to me. Esab and Lincoln have a good system but the new Miller way, seems like they finished where those left off. (meaning not on a fixed timer)

Select adidas International
Rush Select boys continue to grow in the adidas International Select Program
With just a couple of days left of the trip both Zach (OR) and Sergio (NM) are making great strides within the program and reveling in the experience. The training with the Real Madrid staff has been great, and all the things included in the trip have been just as impressive. Wednesday night the guys attended the Spanish Super Cup final where at the Vincente Calderon Stadium, the home team Atletico Madrid tied 1-1 with Barcelona, with the guys seeing Neymar, Barcelona's latest South American star score his debut goal for the club.
After the guys took the tour of the Santiago Bernabue stadium of Real Madrid the following morning and some more training sessions with the Real staff it was their turn to play a meaningful game. The squad was split in half to face Rayo Vallecano of the Spanish La Liga academy league. The first group played the Rayo '97 boys and although losing 3-2, Sergio was provider for the first goal with a great low cross that the center forward could not fail to score, and Zach coming on as a second half substitute score a great solo effort to get the game back to 3-2.
The second half of the group played Rayo '96B and with Sergio having played the full 80 minutes was rested, but Zach came at CB and played the majority of the game. With 6 US national team players on the field the level was very high, but unfortunately the La Liga outfit came out 2-1 winners.
The final part of the trip will see the guys take a visit to the historic Madrid city center and finish on Saturday with a match against the Real Madrid 97 and 98 Academy teams.

I have been wanting to do more than simple video editing for some time and MS movie maker has begun to show it's faults more and more as I have been using it. I have shifted slightly over to VirtualDub but that too has a lot of stuff I would want and is pretty technical compared to MS movie maker. What I am looking for is a above basic level video editing program that can do special effects above just overlaying filters and such. Even with those requirements I am hoping I can find something that doesn't require a 2 month learning course to understand and hopefully it would also be free or at least cheap.
Any suggestions?

Comments about THE NORTH FACE Boys' Nuptse Jacket:
I bought this jacket for my son and he absolutely loves it! He chooses to wear it over any other coat he owns because it is extremely versatile, light weight, very cool looking, really warm when he needs it to be and easily unzipped and worn open when he needs to cool off. We go camping quite often and this jacket is a perfect fit for winter and for cool summer nights. It also works great for a pillow once it is off. I liked it so much that I purchased one for both me and my wife. Now my daughter is asking for one so it looks like my entire family will be wearing North Face Nuptse's!
I recommend this jacket to everyone that can afford to buy one! The North Face Nuptse is TOP OF ITS CLASS for sure in my book!!!!!!

This story was corrected on June 15, 2012. An explanation follows the story.
Patriot Center usher Michelle Pineiro, 20, will attend more graduation ceremonies during the month of June than most people see in a lifetime.
A Class of 2012 college graduate herself, Pineiro said she is hoping to attend all 23 high school graduations hosted at George Mason University's arena this June. Patriot Center staff members wear this merit like a badge of honor, showing they survived a full season of high school graduations.
"Last year my friend worked all the graduations and she got a little gold star by her name [on a bulletin board in the administration office]," Pineiro explained. "I want one too."
GMU's Patriot Center has hosted high school graduations since the 1980s, beginning with four per year. Now, high schools from Fairfax, Loudoun and Prince William counties vie for time slots at the center, which has become more popular as high schools grow too large to host graduations on their own campuses.
So far this June, the Patriot Center already has hosted some dozen or so high school graduations. Thirteen of the 23 this year are Fairfax County public schools.
"It's not our favorite few weeks. It's very hard on the building staff and the university itself," Patriot Center General Manager Barry Geisler said. "It's a lot of work. Every graduation is special."
Because of the traffic graduations bring to campus, the Patriot Center can host three graduations per day at the most.
On June 14, for example, the center hosted Robinson Secondary School at 9:30 a.m., Herndon High School at 2 p.m. and Lee High School at 7:30 p.m. The center charges $10,500 per school, which is paid for by each individual school, FCPS administrators said.
"It's like holding three basketball games or three concerts in one day," said Scott Turyn, director of arena administration. "It's a special day for everyone who comes and we want to make sure it's special."
He added that part of the Patriot Center's job is to keep disruptions minimal. This means aiding the high school staff with confiscating items like sound makers, bullhorns, balloons and beach balls.
"Schools have done a good job of stopping trends. Really anything that looks like fun, they'll take that away," Turyn said.
As part of her job as an usher, Pineiro said she also is on the lookout for items that could detract from the ceremony.
"Right now, I'm watching for balloons," she said. "Beach balls are common. Cowbells I really don't like. I would almost prefer the air horns. One lady, during one of the first graduations [this year], brought in three cowbells. Why?"
Patriot Center staffer Sandy Keim said she has seen hundreds of high school graduations in her 17 years at the arena. A former Robinson Secondary School math teacher, Keim said, "We've had 10 graduations so far and the kids aren't the ones bringing in the beach balls. It's the people in the stands."
Although the beach ball is a perennial favorite at high school graduations, Patriot Center staff said they are on the lookout for more sinister trends having learned a tough lesson during the first year of graduations.
"The first graduation we ever did was Oakton High School in 1986," Geisler said. "The kids had a giant Silly String fight and sprayed Silly String all over the chairs. Then they sat down and the body heat baked the Silly String into the chairs like glue. These chairs — they were green folding chairs — were basically new."
After several attempts to remove the Silly String, Patriot Center staff turned to the FCPS system to either clean the chairs or pay for them, Geisler said. By summer's end the chairs were returned clean; however, the lesson was learned.
"Ever since June of 1986, if our staff sees a can of Silly String, we're on it," he said.
General Manager John Besanko estimated in his 27 years at the Patriot Center he has seen nearly 500 ceremonies.
"This is a 10,000-seat arena that does shows all the time. We talk the same language with those tours. … High schools aren't exactly that way with us," he said. "Each school wants to do something a little different and they all have a different person in charge and there's not much institutional knowledge there."
Besanko contrasted the high school graduation experience with touring concert shows like musical pop-rap group LMFAO, which is coming to the Patriot Center on Monday.
"LMFAO is a touring concert production and it's the kind of thing where we're dealing with one touring entity that has answers and knows that they need," he said. "With the high schools, we're dealing with a principal or a guidance counselor who hasn't done this before and doesn't have the answers for all of these production questions," like, for example, how many chairs and stands the band needs.
Patriot Center staff said the bigger the high school, the more complicated the setup and ceremony.
Besanko said the Patriot Center staff also is ready for any medical issues that could come up during the ceremony.
"We'll occasionally get serious medical conditions. We've had several years where we've had graduates who are eight and a half months pregnant and are on a watch list," he said. "Seizures are a common occurrence."
Because more and more high schools are opting to hold graduations at the Patriot Center, competition for good time slots has increased, said FCPS Student Activities and Athletics Director Bill Curran.
FCPS hosts a lottery each year for time slots. All FCPS schools with graduations at the Patriot Center, except for Robinson Secondary, participate in the lottery. Robinson, which hosts three other high schools' graduations, is exempt and is awarded the first slot.
"We decided to do that a few years ago after we had a glitch where Robinson had a late graduation and their facilities were not available until after they'd graduated," Curran said.
This year's lottery was held at the Gatehouse Administration Building in a conference room. Schools send a representative — often a principal — to watch the drawing. Much like a fantasy football draft party, a dry erase board is on display showing time slots. The first school pulled out of the hat gets first pick, and so on.
"It's kind of funny. Everyone folds their papers a certain way each time. In a sort of superstitious way," Curran said. "The principal at West Potomac felt he had bad luck because he was picked last that first time, so he sent Aaron [Helmick, director of student activities] for good luck. And he got first pick."
West Potomac Principal Cliff Hardison said getting an early pick at time slots is just as important.
"GMU is about the only large venue in the area and multiple schools want to access the resource," he said. "As a high school, we are provided a time frame in which we can pursue gradation options. Last year, our draw was so bad — the last teacher workday in the evening the day after students left — that we looked at alternative graduation sites other than Mason. Three alternatives were presented students and they selected Hayfield Secondary."
Westfield Principal Tim Thomas also has demonstrated bad luck during the lottery.
"Westfield has a history of ending up on the short end of the stick when it comes to lottery picks," he said. "That said, despite our lousy luck, I do feel that the lottery is a fair process given the demand for the facility. Westfield has entertained the idea of a stadium graduation, but we've yet to take that leap of faith because of factors such as inclement weather … excessive heat and the restrictive nature of the coordination of a date for the All Night Grad Party — a strong Westfield tradition."
And, although hosting high school graduations means a stressful few weeks for Patriot Center staff, most said working with and being available to the community was a service the center enjoyed providing.
"In my 17 years here, I haven't missed one," said Keim, who said she gets a kick out of watching the precessions and all of the high-heeled shoes the female grads sport. "This year, at one of the [Loudoun] schools, the kids decorated the tops of their hats with the colors of all the schools they were going to next year … It's nice to see the community each year."

Understanding 504 Plans: What happens when my kid goes off to college?
It is important for parents to be aware that things change a bit at the college level. At the elementary and secondary levels, the school district is responsible for identifying, evaluating, and providing the appropriate services. At the postsecondary level, on the other hand, colleges have no responsibility to identify disabilities. It is the student's responsibility to make his or her disability known and to request special accommodations. Once the student or parents have done that, the college should be willing to fulfill the requirements of Section 504.
As parents, you may want to inquire about special accommodations while exploring colleges with your teen in order to help guide their decision based on their specific needs. Once your teen is accepted to the college and you begin the enrollment process, housing applications, etc., you can work with a disabilities coordinator to complete the necessary paperwork. If your teen is living on campus, put in writing in your accommodation plan the need for nutritional data from food services.
Regarding confidentiality: Most colleges will request that parents indicate on a special signed form who needs to know about the student's disability. In most cases, the Dean of Students, the accommodations coordinator, food services, the RA, and professors need to know. That form does not give them consent to discuss your student's health issues with other parents, students, or outside personnel who have no need to know why certain accommodations are being made.

Hi guys .. first post here .
been welding a long time started with gas , then stick , then mig , on to tig .. been building my business up over the past 6 yrs ... but been welding aprox 20 yrs , home hobbies projects and so on .
ok enough about me
recently I decided to build a motorcycle trailer for my self out of Aluminum , as thats what im dealing with these days in my biz ..had bought a P.O.S Steel trailer and thought .. I can do better .
So we started out doing some in Tig Aluminum with my Dynasty 200 at 200 amps , but it takes a while to heat up 1/4 inch material , so got the frame tacked together and drove to the Miller store .. after doing some research here and the web .
ok now we are on the way home with a new (Miller 211 with spool gun ) $1300.00 later
ok , after reading instructions and checking settings .. time to start welding right .. needless to say as far as factory settings there out the window .. with in 15 min burned back and destroyed 5 tips .. so back to the welding store for more tips and ask some questions .
from my experience you need to run about 20% higher on wire speed with the Aluminum spool gun then stock settings call for
just a FYI .
FOR INSTANCE the chart says for .250 thickness run 7/75 I find best results at 7.25 and 100 wire speed .. this keeps the arc aprox 1/8 to 1/4 out of the puddle as this is what they refer to as spray welding ...if you contact the puddle ..lots of spatter .. yup its not the same as mig steel .
all and all im happy with the machine for speed and penetration.. some of the welding gets sooty some dosent .. depending on angle of the gun speed and so on .. but im getting better with it .

are you using 5356 filler?
when i first start playing with my MM211 and spool gun. I bought a roll of 5356 aluminum wire and it welded like crap burnt up all my tips on the factory setting. I went back to the store to get more tips and to try some 4043 filler. The guy at the store thought it was weird the 5356 wasn't working. so we called miller and they don't recommend using anything but 4043 on the MM211. got my rolls of 4043 and seems to work great.Dynasty 200DX
