C.J.'s Bus volunteers begin loading up cars and the bus at the Clarion Inn on U.S. 41 in Evansville for their relief deployment to Tuscaloosa, Ala. on Saturday morning, April 30, 2011.
C.J.'s bus cruises along Interstate 65 in Tennessee on it's way to Tuscaloosa, Ala. on Saturday, April 30, 2011 in an effort to provide relief to the children of the tornado ravaged area.
Matt Noble, right, fills up C.J.'s Bus on of numerous gas stations the group needed to stop at about every 70 miles. The weight of the modified school bus and steep grades of the highways in Tennessee and Northern Alabama led Noble to put the fuel mileage at, "about three miles per gallon." Bob Rothschild of Evansville Garage Doors sought out the group the day before their deployment and offered to sponsor the fuel for the group's deployment.
Matt Noble, right, and John Martin, second from right, look under the hood of C.J.'s Bus as they assess the damage to the bus's radiator after the bus struck a piece of storm debris along Interstate 65 a half-mile from Warrior, Ala, just over 80 miles from their final destination.
Donna Feagley sits on the steps of C.J.'s Bus as she waits with other volunteers for a new radiator to arrive for the bus along Interstate 65 near Warrior, Ala on Saturday, April 30, 2011. The group was just a few hours away from reaching their destination on Saturday when they struck a piece of storm debris in the roadway and were forced to stop for repairs.
A local school bus flies past Matt Noble as he tries to remove the broken radiator from C.J.'s Bus after Kathryn Martin, the group's founder, found a shop that offered to repair the crucial engine part about 40 minutes away in Faulkville, Ala.
John Martin takes a picture of the damage to the radiator of C.J.'s Bus to send to the repair shop for them to see if they could make the necessary repairs to the part.
Matt Noble, covered in grease and grime from removing the radiator from C.J.'s Bus, teases fellow volunteer Tara Greenlee as they wait along the side of Interstate 65 for a their radiator to be repaired.
David Gibbs from Rodeo's Garage in Faulkville, Ala. arrives to transport the group's radiator to a shop in Mayfield, Ala. to be repaired. Gibbs assured the group it would take an hour to travel each way and probably an hour to repair the radiator, giving them hope they'd be back on the road by 10:30pm on Saturday.
Matt Noble, left, and John Martin, right, slip the group's newly repaired radiator back into place at the front of the bus's engine after 1am on Sunday, May 1, 2011. The group spent hours waiting for the repaired part to arrive and after an hour spent reinstalling and reassembling the casing for the part, they found the leak still unfixed.
Volunteers with C.J.'s Bus watch as the bus is towed into a gas station in Warrior, Ala. around 4:30am after spending 11 hours on the side of the road on Interstate 65. After a failed attempt to fix their radiator, the group was left with no other option but to have the bus towed the remaining distance to Tuscaloosa, Ala. in order to be there in the morning for children expecting them.
Volunteers from C.J.'s Bus pose for a portrait beside their bus and it's tow rig at a gas station in Warrior, Ala as they prepare to make the final leg of their trip to Tuscaloosa after waiting hours to find a solution to their radiator troubles.
After 24 straight hours on the road, no sleep and little to eat, John Martin guides C.J.'s Bus into a grassy field at Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa, Ala. where the bus will serve the community. The group was determined to meet the commitment they made to the community and local Red Cross shelter to be there on Sunday morning ready for children.
Matt Noble begins setting up C.J.'s Bus shortly after arriving in Tuscaloosa at Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa, Ala. as he pulls apart the walls of the passenger side of the bus.

Kathryn Martin blows a kiss as she waves goodbye to tow-truck driver Richard Darnell of Cullman Towing in Cullman, Ala. Darnell made the tow run just after 4am on Sunday, May 1, 2011 in order to help the bus reach it's destination in time to help the children they promised to be there for. No other towing company would make the tow before 10am on Sunday.
C.J.'s Bus volunteers are reflected in the windows of a bus support vehicle as they begin setting up a play area for children and unloading supplies from the bus on Sunday morning at Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
C.J.'s Bus volunteers take a break from set-up of the bus early Sunday morning in Tuscaloosa. After staying awake for over 24 straight hours through their long trek to Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa, the volunteers were all thoroughly exhausted, but still had kids on the way. With no time to get any sleep, they had to snag breaks where they could.
Joshua Whitehead, 4, and Faith Whitehead, 8, play wiffle ball with Donna Feagley on Sunday at the C.J.'s Bus site at Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
Brittany Ashby, left, and Lissa Rust, right, play with Play Doh on C.J.'s Bus with Jamica Simmons, 8, right, and Ja'Dayazia Davis, 7, left. The Simmons sisters were victims of the strong tornadoes that destroyed several communities in Southern Alabama on April 27th.
Kathryn Martin, Executive Director and Founder of C.J.'s Bus, plays with Jadeona Davis, 4, in the bus on Sunday, May 1, 2011. Martin's two-year-old son C.J. was killed in the devastating tornadoes that struck the Evansville area in November 2005. Afterward, Martin went back to school to get her degree in human services with a special focus in child advocacy and founded C.J.'s Bus in honor of her late son.
Jordan Driver dunks a ball playing at C.J.'s bus on Sunday afternoon. Driver, a victim of the April 27th tornadoes that ravaged Southern Alabama, is now a resident of the Belk Activity Center Red Cross Shelter at Bowers Park where C.J.'s Bus is stationed.
Tara Greenlee managed a large group of kids as they color and play games inside C.J.'s Bus. Over 60 children came to the bus on Sunday and taxed the group of 10 volunteers who had gotten no sleep the night before during their radiator struggles.
An American flag recovered from the rubble of the community of Holt in Tuscaloosa, Ala. flies at what used to be Lucky Dollar convenience store and gas station at the corner of Crescent Ridge Road Northeast and First Street East. First Street East, seen in the photo lined with cars, tents and people, used to be a heavily wooded community. No trees remain after the tornadoes that ripped through Tuscaloosa on April 27th and damage extends for miles as no structures were left standing.
Tony Woolbright makes his way through the rubble of his home at 3902 First Street Northeast in Holt, a community of Tuscaloosa, Ala. located just outside city limits in Tuscaloosa County. Woolbright was at home with his 91-year-old mother and his girlfriend, Rhonda Pugh, when the tornado struck their home. Woolbright and Pugh ran down to the basement but Woolbright's mother decided to stay in her room in the corner of the home because her walker made it difficult to get into the basement. "As soon as we got down to the basement you could hear the roar of the freight train," Woolbright said. "The back wall got sucked out and it tried to suck us out but we were holding onto a post." The family survived and only suffered minor bruising. The room Woolbright's mother was in was the only room of the house to survive too as her easy chair sat in the corner where his mother road out the storm exactly where it had been before. "She sat right there and said, 'the good lord's gonna take care of me,' and he did," said Woolbright. "You know what's miraculous, her bible was sitting on the desk by the window and her bible didn't move." "Momma wants to rebuild, we don't know if we want her to rebuild or not. We told her if she wants to rebuild she should do it across the road."
Rhonda Pugh holds up a picture of her grandfather she managed to find in the rubble of her boyfriend, Tony Woolbright's, home on Sunday, May 1, 2011. Woolbright and Pugh were at home with Woolbright's 91-year-old mother when the tornado hit. The couple had just moved back to Tuscaloosa four months ago from Texas. Pugh, a live-in nurse was helping Woolbright care for his mother when they moved back. The couple road out the storm in the basement of the home, clinging to a pipe to keep from being sucked out of the building. Woolbright's mother decided to remain in her easy chair in her room where she remained until the storm passed, suffering only minor cuts and bruises. Pugh said on finding the photo of her grandfather, "I'm so glad I found this, he was my rock."
A home at the corner of 10th Street East and 21st Avenue in the Alberta City community of Tuscaloosa, Ala. sits destroyed by one of several powerful tornadoes that ripped through Southern Alabama on April 27th.
Latia Cobbs prays to Jesus Christ, thanking him for keeping her and her four sons safe during the devastating tornadoes on April 27th, as clouds break to reveal the sunset over Alberta City, a community of Tuscaloosa, Ala. An EF4 tornado destroyed Cobbs' home and everything she owned. One of the first things she and her neighbor, Susie Palmer, did upon returning to recover salvageable belongings was construct a cross from the remains of Cobbs' home. A piece of wood next to the remnants of Cobbs' car in the background reads John 3:16, a reference to the Biblical text, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, and that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." "We were just holding on and my son was screaming," Cobbs said. "We just held on and I just started praising God. My other son was doing it too and he just all of the sudden stood up on his knees and that's when the wind got that grasp to be able to suck him out of there. He was saying, 'you can't have my family!' and then all of the sudden we saw him just flip on out backwards out of the hole." Cobbs' son suffered several cuts and bruises after being sucked out of the house by the tornado, but was able to pull the rest of the family from under the rubble of their home after the tornado passed.
A car no rests upside down on the front stoop of where a house once stood in Alberta City, a community of Tuscaloosa, Ala. An EF4 tornado destroyed homes throughout the community as it progressed through the city on April 27th.
Matt and Jenn Noble walk down 10th Street East toward Kicker Road East in Alberta City, a community of Tuscaloosa, Ala. The mangled and twisted piles of steel they walk toward are the remnants of a warehouse that sat near the intersection before an EF4 tornado ripped through the city on April 27th.

A line of dozens of people who now call the Belk Activity Center at Bowers Park (a Red Cross shelter) their home, line up up and wait for pizzas being given away by Papa Johns.
Sadie Perez, 10, plays with stuffed animals at C.J.'s Bus on Monday, May 2, 2011 in the grassy field where the bus set up it's play area in Bower's Park in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
Hands traced with colored Sharpie markers document the children who visited C.J.'s Bus in Tuscaloosa. Each child traced their hand and signed their name to join those from previous deployments by the bus. The walls all inside C.J.'s Bus are covered in handprints and outlines.
Kathryn Martin plays with Jay'Mikia Bates, 3, at C.J.'s Bus on Monday, May 2, 2011. Bates and her three siblings lost everything when their home in Alberta City was destroyed by an EF4 tornado on April 27th. They now live in a Red Cross shelter at the Belk Activities Center at Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa, Ala. with hundreds of other tornado victims.
Jay'Mon Bates, 5, paints the face of Alyson Jackson on Tuesday, May 3, 2011 on C.J.'s Bus. Jackson, a resident of Gulf Shores, Ala., was in Tuscaloosa as a volunteer and quickly became part of the C.J.'s Bus family. Jackson found the group a place to stay on the campus of he University of Alabama so they wouldn't have to sleep on the bus at night and volunteered each day, playing with the kids.
Jay'Mikia Bates, 3, shows off her new hat to Donna Feagley on C.J.'s Bus on Tuesday, May 3, 2011. Heavy rains kept most kids in the Red Cross shelter at the Belk Activities Center at Bowers Park on Tuesday, but the Bates children missed the bus too much be kept away. While volunteers planned on using the day to determine a new location for the bus closer to affected areas, when the children showed up, they opened the doors and found activities to keep them entertained.
Jay'Mon Bates, 5, stares out from his blanket as he rests in the arms of Alyson Jackson, a volunteer from Alabama who joined up with C.J.'s Bus on their deployment to Tuscaloosa. Bates and his three siblings are now residents of a Red Cross Shelter housed in the Belk Activities Center at Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa. Many residents complain the crowded shelter is too loud at night to get any sleep. C.J's Bus became the only place the Bates children could find peace and quiet on Tuesday, May 3, 2011.
Jay'Quan Bates, 4, takes a nap on the floor of C.J.'s Bus on a yellow dinosaur donated to the bus by a local Mercedes Benz representative. Bates and his three siblings find it hard to get any rest in the crowded Red Cross shelter they now live in and all three took hours long naps at C.J.'s Bus on Tuesday, May 3, 2011.
Jay'Quan Bates, 4, holds tightly to the shoulder of Tony Goben as he is walked to his aunt's car to return to the shelter where his family now lives. Their home in Alberta City was destroyed by an EF4 tornado on April 27th and the family lost everything.
Jay'Mikia Bates, 3, cries as she prepares to return to the Red Cross shelter her family now calls home after spending the day at C.J.'s Bus on Tuesday, May 3, 2011. "They wake up every morning crying because they want to come to the bus," Sonjanice James, the children's aunt, said.
Hundreds of cots fill one of two gymnasiums at the Belk Activities Center at Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa, Ala. The recreation center is now the home to over 250 people who lost everything in the April 27th tornadoes that ravaged Tuscaloosa, Ala. This is room that many of the children at C.J.'s Bus return to every night when the bus closes it's doors. Many residents complain it's impossible to get any rest in the building and little room exists for children to play.
Monique Chandler sits with her four children after her three oldest, Jay'Mikia, Jay'Mon and Jay'Quan Bates all returned from a day at C.J.'s Bus on Tuesday, May 3, 2011. The children play with toys they received from the bus in their small corner of the Belk Activities Center at Bowers Park in Tuscaloosa, Ala. where the Red Cross shelter they now call home is located. On Wednesday, the C.J.'s Bus crew returned to Evansville to briefly resupply and regroup before returning to Tuscaloosa on Friday. They moved the bus closer to Alberta City, where the children's home used to be, because many residents refuse to leave what's left of their belongings for fear of looters and because it's all they have left. With the bus attempting to serve a larger community, but gone from Bowers Park, the children are upset. "They woke up this morning crying," Monique said on Thursday. "I had to explain to them the bus had to go visit other children. The only thing they can do is go outside to the side of the building and play a few games, but that's it."

I have a laptop with a broken network card. I occasionally use it to write or play FM when I go on long-ish train journeys. Now that's a tiny minority of my FM time, but it will still annoy me next time I go on a long journey and cannot play my latest save. For other people, it will stop them playing FM all together. These are people who cannot pirate FM. To be honest, I think they're fine about SI having to employ fewer coders, as long as they actually get to play the game!
2) Again, I agree. UK Copyright Law is totally outdated. It is silly that combining your digital music collection with your partner's, or going halves on FM with your brother, is illegal. Fortunately, I think copyright law is being updated in the next year or so to make it better fit in the digital world.
3) Legally, I don't think you can give it away, but it is technically doable.

A rare zebra-donkey cross, known as a "zonkey" or "donkra", has made its first appearance at a Chinese zoo since its birth on Sunday. The foal, which has stripy legs and pale stripes down its brown body, had a difficult birth at Xiamen Haicang Zoo. Staff had to turn the rare hybrid upside down to prevent it from choking. The donkra weighed 30kg and was nearly a meter tall at birth. Zoo staff said the female zebra mated naturally with the donkey after the pair were left together in the same enclosure.

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.
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils

On a piss poor roster
On a piss poor roster
Get off his ass
A rookie that sucks balls!!!!
He was okay today. That is a tough D. I am actually optimistic.
If he was missing these throws early in the game id agree with you. The fact that he threw 6 straight incompletions and missed bess wide open for a TD late, with the game on the line, tells me its something else
He does not suck, but does have a lot to learn about the QB position.
So we should cut him after this season.
Yeah there's a good decision. You people are the dumbest fans on earth.
This kid is playing with garbage around him. Bess, hartline, marlon freaking Moore, Rishard Mathews
Lmao. What you expect 19-0
His solution to crunch time is to throw deep, whether or not a guy is open. We've seen it against the Jets and now we see it against the 49ers. I don't care how much "talent" he has, he is piss poor at doing what he needs to do in the 4th quarter and that is why he is merely Chad Henne with better throwing capability and mobility, but not winning ability.
Seriously.. Tannehill had a good game today. We need a legitimate number 1 reciever.. it's as simple as that. I liked especially how he wasnt afraid to try the deep ball.. most of them were perfectly thrown. Quit complaining.

Same Universe, Different Lenses: Science, Ethics, and Religion in Dialogue
This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.

This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
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.
Is Genesis 1 describing material creation or functional creation? Pastor Richard Dahlstrom of Bethany Community Church beautifully articulates the insights he has received through John Walton's book The Lost World of Genesis One and probes deep into the Biblical text with us.
In his sermon, Dave Swaim discusses the early chapters of Genesis that seemingly contradict scientific evidence, and he suggests that Christians have simply asked the "wrong questions" about this ancient text, which has led to warfare between the two. In light of this, Swaim wraps up his sermon with the three concluding points that he feels sums up the Biblical truth of creation: there is an all-powerful God, he has a perfect plan, and he has given us his love through Jesus Christ.
On July 27, 2011, renowned evangelical John Stott passed away at the age of 90. His work was an influential voice in conservative evangelicalism. In honor of Stott's work in promoting "balanced and thinking biblical faith", we feature an audio excerpt from Stott's address "Genesis 1: Called to Full Humanity".
Throughout the last 150 years or so, the interpretation of the creation account in Genesis 1 has been a point of contention within the Christian as well as the scientific community.
Dr. Timothy Keller beautifully unravels the first three verses of Genesis 1 in his sermon titled, "Before the Beginning." From these first verses, three fundamental truths are established.
Brian Godawa looks at several aspects of ancient cosmography (descriptions of the universe) that also appear in the Bible, and what these aspects of the text mean for our understanding of Scripture.
Polkinghorne discusses the origins and aims of natural theology in this series. It does not offer truth, but rather a "best explanation" for the world, answering primarily meta-questions. Two such questions asked by Polkinghorne are, "Why is science possible at all?" and "What makes the universe so special?" To explore the answers, he looks at the ability of human minds to penetrate mysteries of the natural world as well as the fine-tuning of the universe necessary to produce the fruitfulness of life.
Philosopher Robert Bishop explores the Biblical doctrine of creation, which he describes as "perhaps one of the most helpful pieces of theology for thinking about science", and describes why the doctrine needs to be recovered from narrower, contemporary interpretations of creation.
In this paper, theologian John Wesley Wright reviews Connor Cunningham's book Darwin's Pious Idea, a work that deeply explores the integration of Darwinian evolutionary theory and Christian faith.
Biologist and BioLogos Senior Fellow Denis Venema examines the interaction between RTB literature and several lines of genetics-based evidence for common ancestry. In so doing, he also addresses the scientific robustness and reliability of the RTB model.
"As a Christian and a biblical scholar, I care both about Scripture as truth and about the ongoing scholarly conversation regarding the composition of the Hebrew Scriptures. And so, when I was asked to speak on the story of creation in Genesis 1, I welcomed the opportunity to give my thoughts on the interaction between this text and its ancient Near Eastern context."
The literary conventions employed in Genesis chapter 1 mark it out, not as a scientific document describing material origins, but as a theological polemic against surrounding ancient Near Eastern pagan religions. Creation language here and elsewhere in Scripture is not about establishing scientific origins of material substance and structure but about covenantal establishment and worldview.
Professor Denis Lamoureux presents the theory of evolutionary creation, which claims that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit created the universe and life through an ordained, sustained, and design-reflecting evolutionary process. The view of origins, says Lamoureux, fully embraces both the religious beliefs of biblical Christianity and the scientific theories of cosmological, geological, and biological evolution.
NASA astronomer Jennifer Wiseman asserts that studying creation can show us the nature of God; science can inform us of what we need to do as stewards of God's creation; understanding the natural world gives us a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ; and science can give us a better understanding of ourselves. This essay was presented at the November 2009 Theology of Celebration Workshop.
Renowned Old Testament scholar Bruce Waltke considers eleven barriers that prevent evangelical theologians from accepting evolution as a possible means of creation and what these barriers tell us about the tensions perceived by many Evangelicals between science and faith. Waltke's work was based on a survey sent to members of the Fellowship of Evangelical Seminary Presidents and their faculty.

If my son is tagged in a photo (who I am friends with) by one of his other Facebook friends that I am not a friend of and I like the photo, is there a way to get it to show up on my other Facebook friends' news feeds so they can see the photo of my son?

Yes, that does already happen. But Facebook doesn't show that on your wall unless someone comments or like it. You can find this by going to your timeline and checking your "Activity". It's best to share the picture on your wall—that is if your son's friend has made it shareable.

Interpretive Handbook
83182 :
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Patients who have had donor hematopoietic cells infused for the purpose of engraftment (ie, bone marrow transplant recipients) may have their blood or bone marrow monitored for an estimate of the percentage of donor and recipient cells present. This can be done by first identifying unique features of the donor's and the recipient's DNA prior to transplantation and then examining the recipient's blood or bone marrow after the transplantation procedure has occurred. The presence of both donor and recipient cells (chimerism) and the percentage of donor cells are indicators of transplant success.
Short tandem repeat (STR) sequences are used as identity markers. STRs are di-, tri-, or tetra-nucleotide repeat sequences interspersed throughout the genome at specific sites, similar to gene loci. There is variability in STR length among people and the STR lengths remain stable throughout life, making them useful as identity markers. PCR is used to amplify selected STR regions from germline DNA of both donor and recipient. The lengths of the amplified fragment are evaluated for differences (informative markers). Following allogeneic hematopoietic cell infusion, the recipient blood or bone marrow can again be evaluated for the informative STR regions to identify chimerism and estimate the proportions of donor and recipient cells in the specimen.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Determining the relative amounts of donor and recipient cells in a specimen
An indicator of bone marrow transplant success
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
An interpretive report is provided, which includes whether chimerism is detected or not and, if detected, the approximate percentage of donor and recipient cells.
It is most useful to observe a trend in chimerism levels. Clinically critical results should be confirmed with 1 or more subsequent specimens.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
The test has less than perfect accuracy, and accuracy varies with the proportions of donor and recipient cells in the specimen. For this reason, results are reported as approximate and rounded to the nearest 5% or 10%, depending on the calculated percentage of donor cells. For example, if the percent donor is < or =10%, it is reported as 5% donor cells. If the percent donor cells are > or =90%, it is reported as 95% donor cells.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
An interpretive report will be provided.

OK, here's my first project post. This Oxy-Acetylene cart is my 4th project with my MM180. I'm particularly pleased with the unique design and fairly decent execution.
Made for 80 and 75 cf tanks, this cart is fairly overbuilt, with 1 1/2 x 3 x 1/8 rectangular tubing, 3 x 3 x 1/8 square tubing, and 1/4 plate as primary components. Most steel came from the scrapyard for around $20. The wheels were slightly more expensive. I had originally run the axle inside the frame, but didn't like the balance. So, I welded on external ears and foot bars.

Thanks guys...
I appreciate the kind words.
Headnut, I had to look up Villa Rica on the map. Looks like you could make a quick run into Atlanta, if needbe. Heh, I so try to avoid that! I'm down in Columbus, and get my stuff from Jones, also good guys. I have been to Carrolton a few times, having bought my Kawasaki cruiser at CycleWorks, still more good guys.
Nice looking cart, most people(myself included) throw something together to get by with. Having the intention of doing something better later.
Good to see you did it right to start with.Tim Beeker,

Wow nice job looks great keep on burning
No chance . . .
No chance you would have dimensioned drawings, plans or more pictures . . .
I would really like to build one . . . It looks well balanced and sturdy.
I considered building one similar with the addition of a third point to the rear with a a small "dullie" wheel so it could be rolled without HAVING to support the weight. Like a small "wheelie" bar with a small dual wheel on it . . .
Not sure if making the "dullie" pivot out on it's own when ever the cart is leaned back in preparation for moving . . . Suggestions appreciated . .
Again, that is a very impressive looking cart . . . .

Recipe by Syd
"A great vegetarian main dish that can be spiced up with the addition of jalapenos to either or both sauce and filling."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 pound
potatoes, peeled and diced
1 teaspoon
1 teaspoon
chili powder
1 teaspoon
1 tablespoon
1 pound
fresh tomatillos, husks removed
1 large
onion, chopped
1 bunch
fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped, divided
2 (12 ounce) packages
corn tortilla
1 (15.5 ounce) can
pinto beans, drained
1 (12 ounce) package
queso fresco
oil for frying
These are fantastic. Much easier also if you use a "salsa verde" in place of the whole tomatillo/blender thing. I also made them with Monterey Jack once instead of queso fresco, and that was good too. I usually end up putting a red enchilada sauce (or tortilla chowder from trader joe's) on top, so they are a bit saucier. Without it they seem a bit dry, but overall they are great, and even my 3 young kids like them. Not as time consuming as they might seem, either.
Good flavor, but would not make again as per recipe. If I make it again, I would definitely add sauce to the potato/bean mixture because the insides were dry. And I would also change the cheese to a cheddar/jack combo or mexican four cheese blend, or something. The queso fresco didn't have a good melting quality to it. But I liked the flavors, thanks for the recipe.

If anyone is looking for a variation to this recipe; I didn't have time to soften the tortillas in oil so instead I lined the 9x13 pan with the corn tortillas then I spread the bean/potato mixture on top of that and then I layed down another layer of corn tortillas. I poured on the green sauce (which is delicious!) and then I crumbled the queso fresco on top of that. ¡Muy fácil! My husband loved this recipe and next time I'm going to add some ground turkey....
I substituted sweet potatoes for the white potatoes, and it turned out absolutely perfect!
Another TERRIFIC enchilada recipe that I've found from this site! I've made this twice; the first time, I really wanted to try this, was short on time, and didn't have tomatillos (or the time to get some) so replaced the tomatillo sauce with canned green chile enchilada sauce. The second time, I made the recipe as written. Both ways are VERY good - I just found the original to be a *little* bland so will probably spice it up with jalepenos next time. Otherwise, this is absolutely delicious!
I loved this recipe! We followed it almost exactly. Even my husband, who is a big meat eater thought it tasted great.
These enchiladas are AWESOME! One caveat: Do NOT put the hot tomatillo/onion/cooking water mix into a blender! It will explode -- seriously! I substituted red jalapeno salsa for the ketchup and a combination of plain, soft goat cheese and shredded cheddar for the queso fresco. Yum!
This truly was delicious. I made many modifications, however.
I made my salsa with 4 tomatoes (the grocery store didn't have tomatillos this week - hey, it's Canada!), 1 medium onion, 1 jalapeno pepper and 1/2 an avocado (delish!). Drain ALL the water before blending, otherwise it'll turn out too runny.
I also added more cumin and chili pepper to the potatoes (I'm a big fan of cumin). Instead of adding the potato mixture to an oiled pan, I mixed the oil directly with the potatoes.
I couldn't find corn tortillas, so I used the flour variety instead.
I had many compliments! But wathc out for the jalapeno pepper. Instead of blending directly into the tomato mixture, blend it on its own and add slowly until obtaining the spice level you desire.
Muy bien!

Gallery: The Lamboo Solar Studio is a Curvy Eco Home Built from Bamboo
The Lamboo Studio Project is a small solar powered studio that uses a radical S-shaped roof system to help keep the home cool in the summer and warm in the winter – all made possible by bamboo grass. The unique standing seam metal roof also has built-in solar electric panels. The home's appealing design is aesthetically pleasing as well as practical – it saves energy and provides generous daylight.
The Lamboo Company specializes in structural bamboo and wanted to create a home design to show off their line of products. They outfitted the 300 square foot studio with a small bathroom including a composting toilet, a whole lot of windows and a wrap around deck. The main room is a generously proportioned space that features high glazing to allow light to penetrate deeply into the space while still remaining adequately shaded in the summer.
The building is to be made mostly from renewable resources like a cork floor, bamboo I-joists, bamboo curved beams and wall paneling. A fast growing grass that has over 1600 species, bamboo has been used in the west mainly for floors and things like cutting boards.

Kids and investing: A good idea
Chris Farrell
May 29, 2012 My 11-year-old son won some money in a math contest at school. He doesn't have anything that he is interested in spending his money on immediately, and I suggested that instead of spending it just for the sake of spending it, he might consider buying stocks and building a little portfolio. He seemed interested in this idea, but I wasn't sure where he should start. He has around $150. Can you help us decide where to start? Thanks! Michelle, South Jordan, UT

Judging how well you're doing with retirement savings

The company does match 3 percent. I am married and we have been working for 14 years now and have combined liquid assets (401(k), outside investment account, savings) of about $400,000, plus home equity of $100,000 on a good day. What shape are we in on our road to retirement? Thanks much. Martin, Chicago, IL

New music was on nearly everyone's agenda Tuesday night when Big Machine Label Group hosted a party for country radio executives and music industry types at Marathon Music Works to showcase a slew of its artists.
Well, new music and alcohol. Big Machine Label Group president and CEO Scott Borchetta sprung for heavy appetizers and an open bar and had servers circulate the room with shots during the Country Radio Seminar week party.
Rascal Flatts kicked off the night with pop-heavy new song "Payback." The trio followed it up with perennial favorites "Fast Cars and Freedom" and "Life Is a Highway."
Members also shared multiple new songs presumably from their upcoming album, which they said from the stage would be released in May. Flatts' new single "Rewind" made the set list as did new ballad "Memphis."

Miley Cyrus puts her ring back on in L.A. on Monday (Brooks/Campos/INFDaily.com)
"I can't speak for her, ya know what I'm saying, but I know that she has a relationship that no longer exists," Snoop said on HuffPost Live on Monday.
So why is the rapper-turned-reggae singer in the know about Cyrus's love life? Well, the two recently collaborated on the song "Ashtrays & Heartbreaks."
"I know she's probably in a transformation change with her life, her music, her career," Snoop continued. "She's 20 years old and she's an awesome artist to work with. She knows what she wants in life. I feel like maybe this is a time for her to take charge like I'm taking charge."
Cyrus, 20, got the rumor mill going that there was more trouble with her "Hunger Games" beau when she posted a photo on Twitter this past weekend that showed the singer sans her 3.5-karat engagement ring.
People reports that Cyrus and 23-year-old Hemsworth got in a huge fight before the weekend, prompting the ring to come off, while E! News is (still) saying everything is fine between the two.
Here is how one source puts it to omg!: "They have a very up-and-down, young relationship. No one can keep up anymore." Another source says Hemsworth and Cyrus are "still together," just "not actively planning their wedding."
The couple is currently living together in Cyrus's Toluca Lake, California home.
Anyone else just think these two need time apart to figure things out? There is no rush to walk down the aisle, kids!

Lobbyists: Background
Members of the lobbying industry have the task of representing clients, from corporations to trade organizations to non-profit organizations, and advocating on their behalf in the nation's capital.
The relationship between lobbyists and lawmakers is tenuous. On one hand, lobbyists pursue relationships with lawmakers in order to shape legislation so that it benefits those who would be affected by the new laws. On the other hand, lobbyists are frequently targeted as symbols of undue influence -- even corruption -- and lawmakers wish to distance themselves for the sake of transparency.
Upon his inauguration in January 2009, President Barack Obama signed an executive order creating new lobbying regulations. These include a rule that prohibits aides on his staff who have left their post from returning as lobbyists for the remainder of his administration and a rule that bans gift giving between lobbyists and members of the president's administration.
Lobbyists and lobby shops frequently make their own contributions to federal candidates and political committees. These contributions have steadily increased, reaching $36.5 million in the 2008 election cycle. In recent years, the donations have generally been evenly split between Democrats and Republicans. However, during the 2008 cycle, the scales tipped in favor of Democrats by the largest margin since the early 1990s. The top contributors in the 2008 cycle were WPP Group, with $1.6 million in donations, and PMA Group, which has since disbanded after the FBI began investigating it.
However, lawmakers are sometimes wary of these donations, which the public sometimes interprets as evidence of corruption. Lobbyists are more likely than other contributors to have their donations returned.
And yes, lobbyists have lobbyists, too. The amount of money spent lobbying about lobbying has steeply increased during the past decade, reaching $14.6 million in expenditures in 2009. Top client HSBC Holdings spent $2.3 million and the Livingston Group spent $2.6 million on lobbyist-related issues. Both of these organizations' expenditures dropped in 2009. This industry seeks to influence legislation on a broad variety of issues; some of the most common include appropriations, taxes and consumer protection.

PALM BEACH, Fla. — Now comes the difficult part – perhaps the most difficult part – of Davis Love's job as captain of the U.S. Ryder Cup team.
He has to fill out the final four spots on the squad.
The eight automatic qualifiers, via a points system, were set with Sunday's completion of the PGA Championship, and Love will announce his captain's picks Sept. 4 with the match-play competition against Europe taking place Sept. 28-30 at Medinah in suburban Chicago.
"Hopefully they will relax and just play," Love said of candidates under consideration who will compete in PGA Tour events before he makes his selections.
The eight players already on the team, in order of points earned: Tiger Woods, Bubba Watson, Jason Dufner, Keegan Bradley, Webb Simpson, Zach Johnson, Matt Kuchar and Phil Mickelson.
"Our top 12 to 15 guys seem to be playing very, very well," Love said.
Not really, but the numbers mentioned by Love probably serve as the best barometer regarding his field of study. Again in order of points earned, the players through the 15th spot are: Hunter Mahan, Steve Stricker, Jim Furyk, Rickie Fowler, Brandt Snedeker, Bo Van Pelt and Dustin Johnson.
It's a reasonable guess that Love's four choices will come from among those seven players, and, in fact, he already has said Mahan, Stricker and Furyk are "high on the list."
That can't be coincidence.
Love said he figures it will come down to making a "gut decision" based on Ryder Cup experience, a player's momentum, and potential partnership compatibility for the alternate-shot and better-ball formats.
But let's assess each of the seven presumptive candidates:
• Mahan — He has played in the past two Ryder Cup meets and lost the clinching singles match to Graeme McDowell the last time around. He did win the Accenture Match Play title early this season by beating PGA Championship winner Rory McIlroy in the final.
• Stricker — He also has played in the past two Ryder Cup competitions and is a valuable asset as a calm and steady personality amidst the pressure. Mostly, though, he's a natural pairing with Woods.
• Furyk — He'd bring loads of experience (on the team for the past seven Cups) and is 4-2-1 in singles. But he's 4-13-3 in partnerships and has had more than a little trouble closing the deal with chances to win this year.
• Fowler — He made his Ryder Cup debut two years ago in the most recent matches and rallied from a late deficit to get a singles halve. But he hasn't played well recently on the PGA Tour, which might put him on the bubble unless he comes up with the goods in an upcoming event.
• Snedeker — He'd be a Ryder Cup rookie, and there already are three of them among the automatics (Dufner, Bradley and Simpson). But he does have an easygoing style that would make him easy to pair (with Zach Johnson?)
• Van Pelt — He'd be a rookie, too, but has played as well as almost anybody recently with the exception of a missed cut at the British Open. He is an extraordinary shot shaper, which is a handy tool under pressure.
• Dustin Johnson — He has the power game Love says he's looking for and won in a singles rout in his Ryder Cup debut two years ago. But he otherwise lost twice in partnerships with Mickelson and once with Furyk. He sometimes looks disinterested.
The odds?
Let's call Stricker a lock, Furyk pretty close to it and Mahan a probable. That would leave four players — Fowler, Snedeker, Van Pelt and Dustin Johnson — for one position. It's likely a beauty pageant until early September with Fowler a slight favorite ahead of Johnson at the outset.
The eight players who have already qualified for the U.S. Ryder Cup team that will compete against Europe on September:
1. Tiger Woods. Won three tournaments.
2. Bubba Watson. Got himself a fancy new green jacket.
3. Jason Dufner. Perhaps the steadiest player on Tour, an irony considering how he lost last year's PGA to…
4. Keegan Bradley. Staying strong and fast developing into one of the best young Americans in the game.
5. Webb Simpson. Won the U.S. Open. That'll do.
6. Zach Johnson.Victories at Crowne Plaza and John Deere highlight a resurgent year.
7. Matt Kuchar. A top-10 machine, with a highlight win at The Players.
8. Phil Mickelson. Barely squeaked in during an unspectacular one-win year for him. Probably saved himself from a humiliating exclusion.

Honorary degree recipients are chosen by the University of Alberta Senate's Honorary Degrees Committee, which is chaired by the Chancellor and comprises broad representation, including the President and Provost; elected members of Senate; and representatives from the academic community, support staff, the Alumni Association, Students' Union, and the Graduate Students' Association. Total membership on the committee is 20.
At the end of this process, the Honorary Degrees Committee elected to confer an honorary degree on Peter Brabeck- Letmathe, along with Steve Hrudey and Sunita Narain. All three recipients have provided extraordinary leadership in sparking dialogue, conducting research, and pushing for major policy change in addressing critical challenges relating to the management and safety of water.
The Honorary Degrees Committee also gave significant weight to the fact that, under Brabeck-Letmathe's leadership, Nestlé was awarded the Stockholm Industry Water Award by the highly regarded Stockholm International Water Institute in August 2011. The company received this award for implementation of water management strategies put in place that include providing expert training for 300,000 farmers, resulting in a 30 percent reduction in water use and greater crop yields.
Throughout the history of the U of A, honorary degrees have been conferred on a wide variety of individuals from all over the world whose accomplishments have had a major impact on a diversity of professions and areas of expertise, in addition to society as a whole. This diversity is evident at spring and fall Convocation, and will again be evident at the special conferral ceremony on March 1.

Subaru and the Center for Pet Safety (CPS) recently teamed up to conduct rigorous crash testing on commonly available pet safety harnesses using realistic, specially designed crash test dogs.
The crash tests uncovered serious flaws in many of the popular pet restraints currently on the market, with many resulting in catastrophic failure. The performance data will assist in the development of the first harness safety standard and test protocols that will serve as guidelines to the pet products industry.
"Safety for all passengers, including our pets, is very important to Subaru and to our drivers. Selecting the wrong harness could be just as detrimental as not using one at all," said Michael McHale, Director of Communications at Subaru of America, Inc.
Sleepypod's Clickit Utility Harness has been identified as the 2013 Top Performing Harness. To view the full study results please visit CenterforPetSafety.org.
CPS is a non-profit research and advocacy organization dedicated to companion animal and consumer safety.
