MAXWELL AIR FORCE BASE, Ala. (AFNS) — The Ira C. Eaker Center for Professional Development recently made available a new tool to assist civilians with their professional development.
The Civilian Development Resource Center is an online clearinghouse providing access to development roadmaps, learning programs and thousands of no-cost courses, books, videos, job aids, simulations, articles and more.
Formerly known as the Supervisor Resource Center, the site offers easier navigation and a broader array of resources that support professional development for non-supervisory and supervisory career tracks.
The Eaker Center's Future Learning and Civilian Education Division designed the CDRC site to help users quickly target customizable learning programs that focus on their individual development needs. Additionally, students can access courses required for some professional certifications. These assets can be accessed anytime and anywhere, thus providing flexibility and protecting members' valuable time.
"The civilian workforce is one of the Air Force's greatest assets," said Russell Frasz, the director, directorate of Airman Force Development here. "Continuously developing oneself is a personal responsibility for all Airmen. The Civilian Development Resource Center plays a key role in maintaining Air Force's innovative and competitive edge by assisting personnel to develop their professional competencies in an efficient and cost-conscious manner."
The site incorporates flexible learning programs that can be tailored to each individual's development pathway and includes building blocks that are typical of a civilian's career, such as "new employee," "developing to journeyman employee," "experienced employee," "new supervisor" and "experienced supervisor."
To help users focus on the most beneficial areas for development, an assessment tool is available on the site that provides feedback and identifies the skills development needed to improve performance. In addition to the career tracks listed above, topical learning programs are also available and are aligned with the Air Force institutional competencies. A monthly newsletter highlights selected courses, books and learning tips spotlighting various learning programs focused on competency.
The CDRC is a self-paced development tool available on demand to meet the needs of current and future Air Force leaders. It is accessible via the Air Force Portal main page under the Career and Training tab.

16 CFR 801.90 - Transactions or devices for avoidance.
prev | next
Any transaction(s) or other device(s) entered into or employed for the purpose of avoiding the obligation to comply with the requirements of the act shall be disregarded, and the obligation to comply shall be determined by applying the act and these rules to the substance of the transaction.
1. Suppose corporations A and B wish to form a joint venture. A and B contemplate a total investment of over $100 million (as adjusted) in the joint venture; persons "A" and "B" each have total assets in excess of $100 million (as adjusted). Instead of filing notification pursuant to § 801.40, A creates a new subsidiary, A1, which issues half of its authorized shares to A. Assume that A1 has total assets of $3000. "A" then sells 50 percent of its A1 stock to "B" for $1500. Thereafter, "A" and "B" each contribute in excess of $50 million (as adjusted) to A1 in exchange for the remaining authorized A1 stock (one-fourth each to "A" and "B"). A's creation of A1 was exempt under Sec. 802.30; its $1500 sale of A1 stock to "B" did not meet the size-of-transaction filing threshold in Section 7A(a)(2)(B); and the second acquisition of stock in A1 by "A" and "B" was exempt under § 802.30 and Sections 7A(c)(3) and (10). Since this scheme appears to be for the purpose of avoiding the requirements of the act, the sequence of transactions will be disregarded. The transactions will be viewed as the formation of a joint venture corporation by "A" and "B" having over $10 million (as adjusted) in assets. Such a transaction would be covered by § 801.40 and "A" and "B" must file notification and observe the waiting period.
2. Suppose "A" wholly owns and operates a chain of twenty retail hardware stores, each of which is separately incorporated and has assets of less than $10 million. The aggregate fair market value of the assets of the twenty store corporations is in excess of $50 million (as adjusted). "A" proposes to sell the stores to "B" for in excess of $50 million (as adjusted). For various reasons it is decided that "B" will buy the stock of each of the store corporations from "A." Instead of filing notification and observing the waiting period as contemplated by the act, "A" and "B" enter into a series of five stock purchase-sale agreements for $12 million each. Under the terms of each contract, the stock of four stores will pass from "A" to "B". The five agreements are to be consummated on five successive days. Because after each of these transactions the store corporations are no longer part of the acquired person (§ 801.13(a) does not apply because control has passed, see § 801.2), and because $12 million is below the size-of-transaction filing threshold of Section 7A(a)(2)(B), none of the contemplated acquisitions would be subject to the requirements of the act. However, if the stock of all of the store corporations were to be purchased in one transaction, no exemption would be applicable, and the act's requirements would have to be met. Because it appears that the purpose of making five separate contracts is to avoid the requirements of the act, this section would ignore the form of the separate transactions and consider the substance to be one transaction requiring compliance with the act.
[43 FR 33537, July 31, 1978, as amended at 66 FR 8691, Feb. 1, 2001; 67 FR 11903, Mar. 18, 2002; 70 FR 4992, Jan. 31, 2005]

IHS: Pertamina import terminal marks opportunity for LNG exporters to Indonesia
5:48 AM MST | November 14, 2013 | Clay Boswell
Pertamina (Jakarta) has begun construction of the Arun LNG (liquefied natural gas) Storage and Regasification Terminal, the company announced on 10 November. The facility, slated for completion in 2014, will support the shipment of natural gas from production fields in the east of Indonesia that have historically served the export market, to the west of the country, where supply has become increasingly tight, says a recent report from IHS's World Markets Energy service. The facility will also support LNG trade from Australia, North America, and East Africa, compounding the rapid expansion of the Asian LNG import market, says IHS....

This would suck lol. Nappy time, oh **** i'm in a hole.
Sinkhole sucks Florida man from his bedroom into the earth
Officials and engineers are searching an unstable area of land after a sinkhole enveloped a Florida mans bedroom in the middle of the night, sucking him down into the earth.
The man has not been heard from since the 20-foot-deep by 20-foot-wide hole opened under part of the Bush familys Hillsborough County home Thursday night.
They heard a sound they described as a car crash emanating from the bedroom, Hillsborough County Fire Chief Ron Rogers said at a Friday morning news conference. They rushed in. All they could see was part of a mattress sticking out of the hole. The floor ofthe room had opened.

As anyone who's ever heard of the Silly Party knows, Monty Python has never shied away from politics. But in this election season, the beloved British comedy troupe's classic skits increasingly have been used to explain events — and even personalities — on the presidential campaign trail.
Maybe it's just that a number of pundits are fans of Python's TV show and movies. Or maybe it's that John Cleese, Michael Palin, and the rest of the group were keen anticipators of the absurd. In any event, here are some recent examples ...
1. Back when Rick Perry was a candidate, Washington Post columnist Ruth Marcus invoked the "Dead Parrot" sketch, arguably Python's best-known routine, in assessing the Texas governor's status. But instead of assuming the guise of Cleese's outraged pet buyer, Marcus took a stance akin to Palin's deceptively death-denying shopkeeper:
2. Two other Republican ex-candidates, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum, were compared to Monty Python and the Holy Grail's ever-persistent Black Knight, who exemplifies the meaning of not knowing when to quit:
3. Mitt Romney's personal fortune has made him a target for accusations that he is out of touch — even The American Conservative's Philip Giraldi wondered if the ex-Massachusetts governor could have been cast in one of Python's sketches skewering the wealthy, such as one in which the "very, very, very rich" Cleese appears mystified by the notion of donating money to help orphans:
4. When The Wall Street Journal's Robert Frank sought to explain what he dubbed "the new politics of wealth denial" involving President Obama, he invoked Python's "Four Yorkshiremen" sketch featuring a group of cigar-smoking rich men boasting about how poor they all once were. After one of them talks of being forced to grow up in a hall corridor, Palin's character says dismissively, "We used to dream of living in a corridor. It would have been a palace to us."
5. In another Holy Grail reference, Tampa Bay Times columnist Daniel Ruth has some advice for Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., if he's offered the vice presidential nomination: Run away!
6. Opining on what he called the Republicans' steadfast rejection of Obama's agenda, The Post's Jonathan Bernstein cited the "Argument Clinic" sketch, in which Cleese finds a way to disagree with absolutely everything Palin says:

I have people coming up to me constantly and saying, you must have a lot of patience to do nature photography. I always give them a little chuckle when I'm asked this. I want to tell them yes I do, but I also want to tell them the different circumstances I get myself into on the way to that good nature shot. I say, and firmly believe, that a good nature photographer definitely has to be at the right place at the right time.
The Kane High School team is in its inaugural season and has 24 team members on the squad.
Kane residents Chris and Randy Haight finished first among 82 teams at the District Eagles Pool Tournament held at the Brookville Eagles Club.
This week, Kane High School and Smethport Elementary and High Schools released brook trout fingerling that they have been raising as part of Pennsylvania Trout In the Classroom program. The McKean County Conservation District partnered with the schools to coordinate this event and helped release the fingerlings in Twomile Run at Wildcat Park. This is the end of a yearlong adventure for the students, who have been raising the trout from eggs as part of the TIC program. The students released the fish and also learned about aquatic invasive species, fly casting, and in-stream habitat.
Team "Aftershock" competed in the N.Y. State Moose Association 3-on-3 "March Madness" basketball tournament held at the Lakewood YMCA on Saturday - March 23.
HARRISBURG – Ten wrestlers from the Kane youth wrestling program earned the right to participate in the 51st Annual Pennsylvania Junior Wrestling Championship Tournament last Friday and Saturday in Harrisburg. Aiden Hulings was the top finisher for the Kane contingent, competing in the 11 and 12 age division, 100-pound weight class.
HERSHEY – Johnsonburg boys basketball's season did not end as sweet as the Rams would have hoped for.
But in the end, Johnsonburg made the District 12 champion Vaux Cougars work to earn their gold medals.
Vaux defeated Johnsonburg 83-63 in the PIAA Class A boys basketball championship game Friday afternoon at Giant Center.
The Kane Lady Wolves finished the 2012 season with an 8-8 record but showed a lot of improvement over the course of the year. The highlight of the season was a 5-1 late-season victory over eventual District 9 A Champions Elk County Catholic.
Kane girls' track and field coach Jim Sirianni has a solid group of athletes returning for him this season, led by three standout seniors.
The Kane boys' track team will be coming into this season as the defending District IX Champions. Whenever you are coming off a successful season like last year, it usually means a rebuilding year. Kane will definitely be in that process in a lot of events.

To Ridgway resident Jack Cleaver Jr. bearing witness to the last passenger train departing from the Pennsy Railroad Station along N. Broad Street in Ridgway is a wonderful childhood memory.
In 1962, Cleaver only an 11-year-old boy at the time says he remembers the scene vividly.
"For a lot of families in that day, the father's job was to go to work and provide the income and the mother took care of everything else," Cleaver said. "It was very unusual for my dad to do any activities with us, but he had come home one evening from work and he said to my mom, 'Get the kids we are going to go to Ridgway, I want to put you and the kids on the train because this is the end of an era."'
Cleaver remembers his family's excitement to get on board.
"We were excited because we had not rode on a train before," Cleaver said.
According to Cleaver, the family dropped what they were doing, packed into the automobile and drove to Ridgway from their home in Portland Mills.
"When we got to where Aiello's [Cafe] is now, I remember looking and saying 'Oh my gosh, look at all of these people,"' Cleaver said. "There was just a mass of people surrounding the station."
Next Jack's father, Jack Cleaver Sr., parked the car and walked to the station to purchase tickets for fare from Ridgway to Emporium.
"His plan was to put us on the train in Ridgway and he was going to drive to Emporium and we'd get off there," Cleaver said.
Unfortunately due to the popularity of the event tickets had sold out.
"He [Jack Sr.] came out shortly after shaking his head," Cleaver said. "I can remember these details very vividly, and he said, 'We cannot get tickets and we cannot get on the train.'"
Despite being unable to board the train, the family waited for it to pass the station.
"We were at least going to see the last train go through Ridgway," Cleaver said. "When the train pulled in everyone began to cheer, it was really a party-like atmosphere.
"We stood there and we watched people board. I can't remember exactly how many, but the train took off and we stood there watching it ride down the track."
Those wishing to make a donation to help restore the exterior of the train station can be made to the Ridgway Borough c/o old train station 108 Main St., Ridgway, Pa., 15853. If interested in sharing a memory of the train station please contact Gian DeLoia of The Ridgway Record at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Thicker edges for increased durability and improved shock resistance.
Fiber reinforcement directly on top of edges improves durability, edge grip, and shock resistance.
Full length wood laminates, from tip to tail, giving optimum stability and rebound, while maximizing ski to snow contact and filteering vibrations.
A layer of rubber all along the edges and in critical zones of the ski for smoother ride & improved ski-snow contact.
Laminate construction with full length ABS sidewalls give extraordinary smooth ski/snow contact and great terrain adaptation. Laminated construction enables us to combine optimum material layers for targeted performance.
Long, medium height rocker profile at the tip and tail enables easy pivoting with maximum floatation and maneuverability in powder. The ski retains a long contact zone on edge with camber in the middle of the ski for stability and edge grip.
The traditionally cambered section of twin rocker skis, where the sidecut is focused for more power, energy and edge grip.
The widest point in the sidecut tapers in toward the tip earlier for less drag and hooking in powder. Swing weight is also reduced making the ski even more maneuverable in difficult snow.

Modest beauty prevails at a Montana family retreat by Lake|Flato Architects and interior designer Madeline Stuart. The west-facing "sunset porch," as the homeowners call it, features reclaimed-wood armchairs custom made by Stuart.
In the living room, smooth concrete walls surround a steel firebox devised by the architects. Sergio Rodrigues lounge chairs and a Michael Wilson lamp, all from JF Chen, face a free-form wood low table by Cristiano do Valle from Espasso and vintage cowhide stools from Hollywood at Home. The rosewood-and-leather sofa and Navajo-inspired rug were designed by Stuart.
Vintage Lightolier pendants from 20th Century Gallery are paired with a custom-made walnut table and circa-1960 teak-and-leather chairs by Hans J. Wegner from Hostler Burrows in the dining room.
Furnishing the porch are a sofa, low table, and armchairs, all by Stuart.
Playing with contrast on the porch, Stuart juxtaposed a stone-top table with a pair of midcentury Italian rope-and-walnut folding stools from Lawson-Fenning. The sofa has seat and back cushions of a Great Outdoors fabric by Holly Hunt; the vintage floor lamp is from JF Chen.
In a quiet corner of the porch, where sliding doors bridge inside and out, vintage rope chairs from the Collection encircle an ebonized wood table.
A magisterial willow shelters a teak table and chairs.
Sliding glass doors and slot windows keep the master bedroom feeling close to nature. The curtains are made of linen; the leather armchair, from Galerie Half, is a circa-1961 design by Arne Norell, and the carpet is a pieced cowhide from Lawson-Fenning.
The master suite's custom-made platform bed has a woven-leather headboard.
A vintage Mathieu Matégot bench in the master bath; the shower fittings are by Waterworks, and the floor tile is by Solistone.
Another view of the master bath, whose mirror and double vanity were designed by Lake|Flato.

These resources provide help with planning ahead for NICE guidance, understanding where you are now, and conducting improvement initiatives.
Assessment tools
Baseline assessment tools can be used to evaluate current practice and plan activity to meet the recommendations. These tools should always be used in conjunction with the clinical and public health guidelines they relate to.
Before April 2012, the tools produced for public health guidance were called self assessment tools.
Audit tools
Clinical audit tools can be used in local clinical audit to improve care, and contain clinical audit standards based on NICE guidance.
The most recent documents are Excel based and also contain:
- a data collection sheet
- a clinical audit report that provides basic information about the audit and automatically displays the audit results
- an action plan template
- an appendix containing a printable data collection form.
Previous versions of the audit tools were called Audit support or Audit criteria.
We want to hear what you think of the audit tools and your experiences of using them.
If you are a clinical audit specialist or healthcare professional who would be prepared to help us review the audit tools, please apply to join our Audit Panel.
Costing tools
NICE provides five types of costing tool:
National cost reports summarise the national estimate cost and discuss the assumptions made when estimating the financial impact of implementing the guidance. For technology appraisals, the report is incorporated into the costing template.
Costing templates support estimating the local cost of implementing guidance. and public health guidelines. These templates allow individual NHS organisations and local health economies to quickly assess the impact guidance will have on local budgets.
Business cases present the financial costs and benefits of implementing guidance.
Cost impact and commissioning assessments are provided for NICE quality standards
Costing statements are used when the cost impact is considered to be minimal, and explain why this consideration has been made.
Costing tools are normally provided for each technology appraisal, quality standard, medical technology, diagnostic technology, clinical and public health guideline. Costing tools are not provided for interventional procedures guidance.Further information on the methodology for developing costing tools
Service planning
NICE has developed these tools to help those with a role in the strategic planning or delivery of services for a condition (or set of circumstances) that are addressed by NICE guidance. These tools are targeted at those who are responsible for planning and putting the guidance into practice.
The content of tools depends on the guidance but can include the following:
- background information such as prevalence of the condition
- an overview of the key steps and decision points in the pathway for a specific piece of NICE guidance
- practical suggestions for putting NICE guidance into practice locally
- identifying likely implementation barriers and possible ways to overcome these for different audiences.
We are looking for ways to improve our tools and welcome your feedback. Please follow these links to a short evaluation form for tools for clinical guidelines and for tools for public health guidance. If you are experiencing problems accessing or using this tool, please email email@example.com
Forward planner
The forward planner helps people plan for and implement NICE guidance by:
- summarising published guidance organisations may still be implementing
- listing forthcoming guidance to help NHS bodies plan ahead
- including an indicative cost for England for forthcoming guidance, based on the Institute's draft guidance where published
Into practice guide
The Into practice guide helps and supports local health and social care provider organisations in implementing NICE guidance and using NICE quality standards to improve the quality of care they provide. The guide is a source of practical support to health and social care professionals and managers to enable them to provide care in line with NICE recommendations.

Saturday, January 19, 2002Boone, N.C. - In her second collegiate race, freshman Chantelle Vernon (Markham, Ontario) breaks the ETSU 55m record with a 6.90 at the Second Appalachian Indoor Meet. The previous record was a 7.12 held by Beverly Dalton set in 1992. At the same time, she also set the track record at Appalachian State, which was a 6.98 held by Michelle Dixon of UNC-Charlotte set in 2001. In this race, Vernon beat two All-Americans and provisionally qualified for the NCAA Nationals. This comes a week after Vernon broke the school 60m record in her first race as a Buc at the West Virginia University Classic. In the women's 200m dash, senior Jennifer Howard was the first Buc to cross the finish line in 25:63 to take third place. Natasha Peyton finished in 26.14 to finish in 10th spot. Two freshman finished back-to-back in the 200m. Nichola Cornish and Ashley Taylor finished 15th (26.44) and 16th (26.45) respectively. Another freshman, Carla Akers, ran a 28.19 to finish in 26th place. In the 5000m run, sophomore Emily Chaney ran a 19:54.43 to finish in sixth place. Freshman Jennifer Habbestad finished in 22:01.87 to earn 13th place. On the men's side, Kaylin Chesney took 14th spot in the 200m dash with a time of 23.33, which beats his previous best in this race at 23.60 seconds. Senior Mike Farkas finished the 5000m run in 16:49.55 to take ninth place. Farkas' previous best in the 5000m was 16:52.22. The men's distance medley relay team finished in third place with a time of 10:37.00. In the high jump, sophomore Rhett Ezzell finished fifth after jumping 6' 2" while junior Adam Woods took ninth spot by jumping 5' 10".

Just curious if there are any Locost builders out there... am considering building one... and that space frame looks like a lot of fun to tig... I know many are MIG welded and the original Lotus 7 was gas welded..
for those of you that do not know what that is... it is a small sports race car that is loosely based on the Lotus 7.... they are very popular in the UK and gaining popularity here,, have attached a pic... they are a very light car (about 1100lbs) so even a modest engine makes them quite quick...

I have been wanting to build one for a while now. I figure a couple years down the road I will build one when I get better at welding and have a 220 machine. I figure I will use one of my Alfa Spiders which has a serious rust issue on the chassis.
I forget the site but their is a big Locost forum dedicated to different ideas and setups.
an Alfa would make a great donor... have had a few of them over the years.. first one was a 67 Duetto bought new from Knauz.. had AUSCA/Veloce cams ...& GTA Cromodora rims... still have lots of fond memories of that car... putting those mechanicals in a car 1000lbs or more lighter will make for fun driving and a lot of frowns from modern supercar drivers as they get dusted...
the best site I have found is the locostusa site..
the reason that I started a thread here is that.. the space frame is a complex job to weld... and unfortunately many of the ones that I have seen had welds that would make pigeon poop look good... we need to raise that bar..

I would have to agree with you on some of the guys welding them up do not look the most qualified. Thats one of the reasons why I want to wait a couple years before tackling something like this. The last thing I would want to do is put my life in danger because I did not do a good enough weld job.
Some of them use simple 110v machines to weld the chassis. Though I have the Mcsorley plans and they are all 1/8" thick steel which 110v machines are rated for.
Youtube has video of someone elses Alfa powered Locost and awhile back I saw one with a GTV6 powertrain including the rear gearbox setup.
all the plans that I have seen including the McSorley are 16Ga so well within the capabilities of a small mig welder..
Have attached the file "McSorley7+442e.pdf" file.. which is a stretched and widened version.. have been considering building a further stretched version with an inline 6.... the chevy vortec 4.2 looks very good... 4valves per cyl ,DOHC, 270hp stock all aluminum, foam cast....etc...
I would say that your limitation is not the welder but your confidence in using it... I will probably not start one in the near furure.. but it looks like a wonderful project..
BTW... since you already seem to have a full spare alfa driveline.....
This site has the most complete set of links worldwide.. for people constructing these clubman type tube framed monsters... including UK, NZ, Aussie builds
It is really inspiring as to what some of these guys have built with a minimum of tools and equipment.... the ingenuity that has gone into some of these is very cool.. there are clubs all around the world racing and hillclimbing these little devils...

Found this
Guys, I found this model on a web a while back, I don't know where I found it. It is a 3d model of the chassis of a "seven". I have a pdf file that has each part with cut details, if interested let me know and I'll find it.
Update: I have a solid model in iges or UG NX4 format, a pdf for a "stock" chassis, pdfs for something called a "McSorley7+4" and a "McSorley7+442". as I said I got them off a web site but don't remember where.
The chassis is made from 1 x 1 16ga tube. Seems fragile to me but apparently it fine. It takes 11 20' lengths to make the basic chassis.

Student Organization Hosts "Webb Idol"
Considering the last time a Webb Idol event happened was four years ago, the event on May 26th was a great success. The fifteen acts ranged from classics from the 80s to a ukulele rendition of a song by Outkast. Between the amusing performances and the insightful comments from the judges, everyone was truly entertained for the two hours. After review of the acts, the judges chose Jay Nonemaker's and Jake Genauer's Singing in the Rain, Casey Harwood's and Steve Guglielmoni's Wagon Wheel, and Andrew Lum's M+M's as the winners! Congratulations to them and a huge thank you to the judges, Jay Nonemaker, and Nathan Fast.

To the people on here that think landry was clapping because of the stop, you are freaking moron....if you rewatch it, you can tell it was when bush was down and probably screaming, then he started clapping, you guys are idiots.
nobody runs out of a pile clapping after stopping the opposing offense who is obviously running out the clock. you are absolutely delusional
"Coach Sparano assured us at the beginning of the week, they win the turnover battle, they win the game," guard Richie Incognito said. "And we went out there, turned the ball over."
That guy is a juice-head. I hate the way he played in Washington and hate the way he plays even more with the Jets. He seems to be more concerned with the kill shot than doing his job. I strongly dislike players like that. With that said, I was jumping up, screaming and cheering when Revis went down, so can't blame any Jet who felt the same about Reggie, it's just unclassy for a Jet player to do while the guy is laying on the turf. They're all professional atheletes playing sports to feed their families, why celebrate when a fellow athelete's ability to do that is in question. However, they understood with Reggie gone, it became a completely game. No way they win with Reggie healthy.

This is an old project and I put it in because it was done many years ago when I had an old Airco buzz box, a 7" grinder, a saber saw, hack saw, router, a radial arm saw, a compressor, a 1/2" drill and a paint gun. I didn't even have a torch.
The screw was from a Record vise. I painted it with two part epoxy. My daughters entered it in a county fair years later and won 2nd prize. Anyway, you don't have to have a lot of tools to get things done. I look back and think how spoiled I am now.

Actually, I built it years ago but was having a hard time getting good grapes. I think I loaned it out about five times for every time I used it.

Federal agents and NYPD officers descended on a building in lower Manhattan Thursday morning in a new search for evidence in the case of a 6-year-old boy missing for more than 30 years.
The property is on Prince Street in SoHo, the same street where Etan Patz was last seen on May 25, 1979. An NYPD spokesman told CNN that authorities are looking for "human remains, clothing or other personal effects." The search effort is focused on the basement, a currently-unoccupied 13' x 62' space with a cement floor.
CNN's Susan Candiotti reported that FBI evidence recovery teams plan to use jackhammers to dig through the floor and they expect to continue the search there for five days. Candiotti told HLN's Nancy Grace investigators believe Patz may have been killed or disposed of in that basement.
Patz vanished after leaving his family's Prince Street home to walk to his school bus stop two blocks away. His disappearance spurred a nationwide search and the development of new ways to look for missing children, including posting their pictures on milk cartons.
A man who has been identified as a suspect in the case, Jose Antonio Ramos, is in prison in Pennsylvania for unrelated child molestation charges. A Department of Corrections spokeswoman confirmed to HLN Thursday that Ramos is scheduled to be released on November 7, 2012.

Sometime in 2008, we asked ourselves: Was it just us, or was that dude a few feet down the subway platform dressed like the Brawny Man? Soon, no hipster enclave was complete without a gaggle of men and women in watch caps and work boots that had never seen a factory floor. The heritage thing was here to stay.
Kidding aside, our favorite thing about the trend is that it puts classic American brands like Filson in the spotlight. The Seattle-based brand is the real thing — it has been making outdoor gear since 1897, and it actually sells bright-orange safety vests and chaps for your fly-fishing pleasure.
Even if your hobbies don't include standing around in lakes at 6 a.m., click on to see 13 classic field bags and cozy, shearling-collar coats that pack plenty of rugged style. And we do mean rugged — Filson guarantees each piece for a lifetime. Try to get that from your average pair of high-street cargo pants.

It is not always easy to differentiate between feeling low and being in a bad mood and being depressed. To diagnose depression, it would require that the patient be assessed for the severity of the condition as well as some other factors related to depression. In any case, depression can be treated, and even though it is a common problem, it will require more than simply snapping out of the mood and getting proper depression treatment at the earliest.
The exact cause of depression may not as yet be known though genetics seems to be one of the reasons as too can be events that lead to depression including losing one's job, having to end a relationship as well as being stressed. Once the symptoms appear and are diagnosed by a doctor, depression treatment may be begun with the help of a doctor, psychiatrist, counselor as well as psychologist or psychotherapist.
Many Forms That Depend On Severity Of Depression
Depression treatment can take many forms and it really depends on how severe is the depression. If the patient is only suffering from mild depression, there could be prescribed psychotherapies which are as effective as any medication. For more severe depression, the depression treatment would warrant taking medications with accompanying psychotherapy as well.
It is also necessary for patients with very severe cases of depression to be referred to a psychiatrist, and this form of depression treatment will require providing the psychiatrist with all necessary background information including current medication being used for treating the depression.
It is not advisable to bottle up one's feelings within, and not let them out when in a depressed mood, because it would be much better to seek depression treatment by talking to others about the problem. There is no sense in lying about in one's bed all day, or locking oneself from the world, which will only compound your problem. It would be much better to exercise regularly and get your mind of the problem. This may not be a depression treatment, but it sure will keep you from becoming totally lost to the world.
You can also get natural depression treatment if you do not wish to take medications. If you are worried that you will feel sedated as well as act like a zombie due to taking chemically manufactured drugs, then you can opt instead for natural remedies and also take therapy along with it to get better results. Of the many natural depression treatment available, perhaps St. John's Wort is the most used natural means of treating depression.
Another natural remedy for depression is Valerian Root that is especially useful for treating sleeping disorders. Other depression treatments include Kava Kava, and 5-HTP.
If you are suffering from depression then the Depression Free Method by Dan Micheals might just be the solution that you have been looking for. Dan is a former sufferer and mental health professional, who developed the depression free method over 8 years to find a holistic solution for depression.
Although everyone reacts differently to natural remedies for depression, I believe you will be pleasantly surprised by the results that you will get from Dan's methods.

Interpretive Handbook
84773 :
Citrate Excretion, Pediatric, Random, Urine
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Urinary citrate is a major inhibitor of kidney stone formation due in part to binding of calcium in urine. Low urine citrate levels are considered a risk for kidney stone formation. Several metabolic disorders are associated with low urine citrate. Any condition which lowers renal tubular pH or intracellular pH may decrease citrate (eg, metabolic acidosis, increased acid ingestion, hypokalemia, or hypomagnesemia).
Low urinary citrate is subject to therapy by correcting acidosis, hypokalemia, or hypomagnesemia by altering diet or using drugs such as citrate and potassium.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Diagnosing risk factors for patients with calcium kidney stones.
Monitoring results of therapy in patients with calcium stones or renal tubular acidosis.
A timed 24-hour urine collection is the preferred specimen for measuring and interpreting this urinary analyte. Random collections normalized to urinary creatinine may be of some clinical use in patients who cannot collect a 24-hour specimen, typically small children. Therefore, this random test is offered for children <16 years old.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
A low value represents a potential risk for kidney stone formation/growth. Patients with low urinary citrate, and new or growing stone formation may benefit from adjustments in therapy known to increase urinary citrate excretion.
Very low levels suggest investigation for the possible diagnosis of metabolic acidosis (eg, renal tubular acidosis).
For children ages 5 to 18, a ratio of <0.176 mg citrate/ mg creatinine is below the 5% reference range and considered low.(1)
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Drugs that lower systemic pH, potassium, and/or magnesium lower urine citrate and are to be avoided in patients with tendency to calcium stones. Conversely, drugs that raise systemic pH, potassium, and/or magnesium may raise urine citrate and should be considered in treating patients or interpreting results.
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.
No established reference values

What is it about 'three'?
"Good things come in threes."
"Third time's the charm."
"Two's company, three's a crowd"
Being a third wheel... having a three-way... a love triangle...
The Rule of three... the top three...
Could ""omne trium perfectum" be fact?
If I type the word "three" into the search bar here on TED, I get a page full of threes. 3 reasons to do this, 3 ways to achieve that...
What is about three?
Fritzie -
May 15 2013: I have no historical perspective on this, but I can put forward one possibility. Singlets and pairs are ubiquitous in the natural world. Even in the body of most animals, at least those that come to my mind, symmetries give us apparent pairs of things- arms, eyes, ears, legs and singles- nose, mouth, head, sometimes tail.
- +4
With ones and pairs being so common, three may be the smallest number that might have "special" or esoteric quality.
There are very significant fours, of course, as well, but three has the virtue, in terms of being special, of not even being decomposable into pairs.
Another hypothesis that I find less likely is related to the face. Babies are wired to seek out faces, and particularly the mother's face. Experiments have shown that what it takes for a baby to recognize something as a face is a closed convex shape with three markers in it, which are taken to signify eyes and mouth. Perhaps that initial, "wired in" positive reaction to three markers as a face is related to our attraction to threes.
May 15 2013: "With ones and pairs being so common, three may be the smallest number that might have "special" or esoteric quality."
Your entire post was great. I just thought that line summed things up quite nicely.
Couldn't have said that better myself. Great post Fritzie.May 16 2013: Couldn't agree more, Henry. Fritzie, this is so insightful.
I love what you wrote about our faces - the focal points are indeed triangular!May 16 2013: Fritzie, nice summary :)
I think 3 as a number finds so many references of significance because it is the first of cognitive extensions of an abstract counting system that our consciousness has evolved into. Zero (absence), One (existing materialness) and two (pair, duality) are most probably as ancient as human consciousness, just after our consciousness progressed from the ability to differentiate many from one. This is a number sense that is existent in many animals now.
3 is the first of the series that human consciousness could develop as a harbinger of a fully developed counting system, approximately 20,000 years ago. It is interesting to note that geometry, one of the most ancient rational branch of study recognized that a dimensional jump from to one to two is only possible by three straight lines as at least 3 such lines are necessary to cover an area.
The languages stopped evolving in numerical sense (three abounds in language structures, three tenses, three persons, three degrees of comparison, you name it) simply because numerical systems took over the job. There are still remnants of many underdeveloped numero-linguistic roots and words like 'lot', 'many' and group names like 'herd', 'pack' etc.
The interesting occurrences of three like the ones many are stating here can be due to pattern seeking abilities of of our brains.
For example, you can write down any number (however large) in words, count the alphabets and write down the resulting number in words again and go on doing it every time ending with 'Four'. Do you think there is anything profound in that?
May 16 2013: What do you mean by "count the alphabets?"
May 16 2013: 3443
Three Thousand Four Hundred Forty Three
Thirty Four (alphabets).
Three.....May 16 2013: Oh, in the US, we would say for this "count the letters." The reason I wasn't sure is that there are some pattern-seeking traditions in which numbers are associated with letters and then used to find hidden meanings in texts. I am sure you have seen this done with some religious texts. Gematria is an example.May 15 2013: The first number to have a beginning, middle, and end.
bart hsi
May 21 2013: I am an applied mathematician. Let me explain the number 3 somewhat differently from your argument. First of all , the reason that all the "even" numbers are non primes except the 2, of course because all of them are divisible by 2. But how does the word "even" come from? My interpretation is that if you put 2 identical weights on both sides of a balance scale, the "arm" of the scale will be flat over the supporting surface, which we usually called as being "even" with the surface. Now, if we look at the arm of the balance as a straight line, then the the concept of the evenness would be similar to the meaning of "parallel".
- +2
Now this could be followed with my extension of your observation. Suppose that we build a "balance" with 3 semi-arms, with 120 degrees apart from each other emitting out from the center support with a needle tip. Then when you put THREE equal weights onto the 3 pans hanging from the 3 arms, then they will also be balanced. They are balanced over a flat surface rather than over a superficial line. What I am saying is that we could have named the group of all numbers which are divisible by 3 as "steven"? (from the words "even steven") numbers as contrasted to the term 'even" for the numbers divisible by 2. But jokes aside, I would call these numbers "treven" (from the term trois or tres for the number 3 in Fr or Sp) If we all accept this new terminology then we would have a group of non-prime "trevens", except the value 3. Similarly, we could call a group on numbers divisible by 5 as "cinevens", etc.
My argument is that the phenomenon of the "even" numbers is not mythical, but rather it was due to the ancient numerologists' not looking beyond the "one-dimensional reasoning".
May 21 2013: Bart, this is truly fascinating!
Have you submitted this idea to someone?? Your reasoning is incredibly logical, the 'treven' group needs to be known!
bart hsi
May 21 2013: Lizanne, No, I have not submitted my idea to anyone, because it came up to me.the very first time. And don't worry about it. I am old enough that any of my ideas would be permitted for anyone to use as they like. I wouldn't even quarrel about the authorship anymore. By the way, I posted some new ideas in a current TED DISCUSSION about "utopia" which might be constituted as novel practical ideas. But again anybody can use it as s/he pleases.
- 0
May 21 2013: That is quite a gift, Bart.
Hope no one minds if I stick the link in here to that conversation:
http://www.ted.com/conversations/18402/what_does_your_utopian_future.htmlMay 22 2013: So we've taken out all the evens and the trevens. That's a good start at finding prime numbers, since it also removes the fourvens, the sixvens, the eight- and nine-vens, etc. Now we just need to take out the fivevens and then the sevenvens ...
I believe we're rediscovering the "Sieve of Eratosthenes."
Comment deleted
May 16 2013: Wait. What? Did I miss a meeting? Have the numbers 1 and 2 been reclassified as non-prime? Why wasn't I told?
Comment deleted
May 16 2013: My bad too! Apparently "they" decided zero and one are neither prime or composite. I think we should be able to enjoy the comfort of knowing that all natural numbers are either Prime or Composite, but, oh no. Even though one (1) is not the product of any other natural numbers (a valid definition of Prime) it is denied the highly-honored status (similar to the USDA meat grading system) of PRIME. You forced me to Bing it. Here's what I found: "If 1 is not a prime number, then any composite number (such as 12) can be written as a product of primes in only one way (here, 2*2*3), not counting different orders. However, if 1 were a prime number, there would be infinitely many ways! We could write 12 for example, as 2*2*3, or 1*2*2*3, or 1*1*1*1*1*2*2*3. Having only one way to write a number as a product of primes is very useful when doing math." So, XZ, once again we see math can be imprecise, arbitrary, and fickle.May 16 2013: I like how the word 'fickle' has been used twice in this conversation... I wonder if it'll be used a third time?

Technology-Entertainment- Design!!!May 16 2013: ZX, yes! Driemaal is scheepsrecht! Third time's the charm! This number is definitely not exclusively used in English!

And, also, in speech, repeating a word three times for emphasis.......no no no!! yes yes yes!!! wait wait wait!!!
I remember when Jimmy Carter ran for president back in the 70's, there was a tv commercial of a lady yelling, Jimmy Carter is "fickle, fickle, fickle"........I had to look up the word fickle, I didn't know what it meant. :P

May 16 2013: Interesting, Mary!
I agree, it strengthens emphasis. If you say something three times, well, you really mean it.
When I tell my kids to brush their teeth, I often have to ask them three times before they 'hear' me!
And they often have say 'no' three times when they disagree!
Love the list of songs!
Thank you!May 16 2013: Lizanne... interesting question
I am not sure what it is about the #3. I will share that for some unknown reasons it shows up at some significant moments in my life; I got married on 3/3/90 (90 divisible by 3), we said our "i DO" at 3:33 pm (a friend documented the time), we have 3 children 2 born in march, I am the 3rd child of six born on 10/3.... I think it is all rather odd but,if the number 3 is telling me something I have yet to discover an answer!
May 16 2013: That is mysterious and magical-sounding, Mary Ellen!
Maybe you are subconsciously aware of the 'hidden strength' of this number!
May 16 2013: RE: "I like how the word fickle. . . " You just did!
May 16 2013: Well, cover me in flour and bake me for forty minutes!! You're right!May 16 2013: RE: "Well cover me in flour. . . " Is that a Dutch idiom? I do not get it . . . at all.

adesh saxena
May 15 2013: I, You and They. Includes whole world in order of closeness.May 17 2013: Three simply means 'complete'.
- +1
the word complete can be related to ultimate goal, ultimate happiness, ultimate destruction, ultimate mystery, ultimate gift etc.
the pattern with three is completely 'natural'.
the ultimate goal is enlightenment...(third eye)
ultimate gift.....man+woman=child (third life )
It means 'complete ' because there are various natural things and processes which doesn't need to be complete...
so only the 'ultimate' combinations of nature require the 'third' to be complete !
Hence, whenever we come across any 'ultimate' natural combination which requires the 'third' or which already consist of the 'third'...one is simply drawn towards this art of three...
In order to know you will have to drop the 'knowledge'...as knowing is different from knowledge.
So let's try to drop the 'knowledge' that evolution is continuous process (only for this question, as it will be 'known' once it is dropped).
alternative for this 'three' pattern can be " true nature of existence: Evolution"...where the 'third' stands for the evolved one!!!
May 18 2013: Thanks so much for your comment, Samuel!
I never thought of superlatives!
And becoming a family can only happen when a third member is made, indeed.
"Knowing is different from knowledge" - well said.May 17 2013: mind you - three's a crowd..
May 17 2013: Scott, that is the very reason I started this conversation.
My son is involved in a sort of 'love triangle' at school. He really adores and wants to play with two other boys in his class, but is often 'the third wheel', or they use him to get at each other... It's a fascinating dynamic, and indeed, an example of how the 'three phenomenon' can be negatively interpreted.

May 16 2013: Isn't this interesting??

- there are three primary colors
- it's the number of bones in a human ear
- three piece suits
- The Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria
- the three witches in MacBeth
- the Bronte sisters!
- three feet in a yard
- ID, EGO, Super EGO
- 'there's no place like home'
- Hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil
- the Star Wars trilogy and the Lord of the Rings Trilogy (now you really know what a nerd I am)
- Homo habilis, homo erectus, and homo sapien - the human species, for pete's sake...!
What I am noticing, is how overwhelmingly positive these examples of threes are.
Putting personal taste aside, is the number three used exclusively in beautiful, constructive, positive things?
Comment deleted
May 16 2013: Oops, true - we should never forget the foundations.May 16 2013: perhaps it is because it promotes discussion , rather than the argument of two.
Is also heavily steeped in the old religions of maiden , mother, and crone.
Breeze thru the Womens Book of Myths and Secrets , and you will see where most of the references come from.
May 16 2013: Good point, Morgan, about threes being represented in religion, like the Holy Trinity...
It's a strong literary and communicative tool.May 15 2013: Lizanne,
You need to start a blog if you don't have one already. I build blogs and manage them. If you ever need help with that let me know. Your very good at coming up with thought provoking conversations.
May 16 2013: Thank you Henry! That is such a compliment! My Mom says I should write a book... I have no discipline though. I think I have questions because you all provoke me, in the best possible way, of course.May 15 2013: Combination of superstition and awareness may add to its significance. 'Three men on a match' and 'third times a charm' seem to be evidence of both simultaneously.
The other thing that is interesting are the words and scenarios that elude to 3 and its significance. Few is an example, one, couple,few... Middle child syndrome infers three but relates more to the second or true middle. Even third place trophies seem like consolation prizes to the recipients.
Interesting question. I often look at numbers(birth dates) and consider how the numbers of a persons date affect the psyche. Mine being Halloween, 10.31 have interesting combinations and significance itself, and has played a major role in my life, which much like our hair color is unique to us and interesting.
May 16 2013: Neat thoughts, Jospeh!
I never thought about three eluding itself - what a fascinating perspective!
A date itself is three digits - day, month, year.
This is getting more and more and MORE interesting!

When the info is ready and sanctioning agreement has been done with PDGA - I will list the info -right now I'll just put dates in.
