BAS is not responsible for the content of external sites.
Over two Antarctic summer seasons British Antarctic Survey (BAS) mounted an ambitious and challenging deep-field science campaign to one of the most remote places on Earth. -. For three months of each of the 2007 and 2008 austral summers three scientists and two field assistants camped in orange pyramid tents surviving on dried food and working in temperatures between –33 and +2°C. The nearest base was the BAS Rothera Research Station on the Antarctic Peninsula, some 800 miles away.
The quest for glaciologists Robert Bingham, Julian Scott and Andy Smith was to determine what's causing one of the world's biggest glaciers to speed up, and how Pine Island Glacier, on the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, will contribute to sea level rise. This is their story.

I have seen several recipes for coffee syrup, but none of them with a simple caramel taste. Is getting the caramel taste as easy as using brown sugar instead of white sugar, or do I need to find some store selling caramel flavour (essence)?

I would actually just make caramel. Place about 1 1/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup in a heavy bottom pan and dissolve over low-medium heat then crank up the heat and let cook, without stirring, until the mixture turns a golden amber colour and starts smoking. Then use the resulting caramel to sweeten your coffee :-)

The Charles County Sheriff�s Office will conduct a sobriety checkpoint Friday night at 9 p.m. in Waldorf as part of a statewide initiative to crack down on drunken and impaired driving.
The department did not release where it would specifically stage the checkpoint and has not decided whether to schedule any others for the remainder of the year, spokeswoman Diane Richardson said.
Charles County has seen an increase in DUIs in 2012 — the sheriff�s office has charged 462 people with driving under the influence versus 431 in the 2011, a 7 percent increase.
�We conduct DUI checkpoints throughout the year and continuously participate in regional efforts aimed at identifying and removing drunk and impaired drivers from our roadways,� Charles County Sheriff Rex Coffey (D) said in a statement. �Our goal is to keep motorists safe.�
As part of the Maryland State Highway Administration�s �Checkpoint Strikeforce� program, Charles County traffic officers have also persuaded 23 local businesses and community organizations to display messages reading �Report Drunk Drivers — Call 911� on their marquee or storefront, Richardson said.
�Our officers are constantly on the lookout for impaired drivers, but we can�t do it alone,� Coffey said. �We need citizens to call us when they see a vehicle being operated in a dangerous manner. Having these messages posted will simply remind people that they can help us take drunk drivers off our roadways.�
December has consistently been one of the deadliest months in Maryland when it comes to drunk-driving fatalities, according to the SHA�s Safety Office.
Last year, 171 people died in alcohol-related crashes in Maryland, up from 163 in 2010. Of those, 28 percent came in accidents involving a driver whose blood alcohol level was the legal limit of .08 or higher.

Milk thistle extract is one of nature's most potent weapons to support liver health. Until recently, however, the technology hasn't been available to fully harness this plant's full benefits.1 The problem has been the star component of milk thistle, called silybin, does not dissolve well in water.2,3 This makes it difficult for your body to absorb all of it.2,4,5 Scientists have developed a novel technology to overcome silybin's poor bioavailability. The solution is to mix silybin with a nutrient called phosphatidylcholine.
Phosphatidylcholine facilitates transport across the intestinal lining into the bloodstream, making it an ideal "carrier molecule" for silybin.4,5 Scientists believe that phosphatidylcholine molecularly bonds to silybin ushering it through the membranes of cells in the intestinal tract.4 This silybin-phosphatidylcholine complex is absorbed nearly five times better than silymarin alone, and its ultimate bioavailability to the liver, its target organ, is ten-fold greater than silymarin alone.6-8
This novel milk thistle extract with phosphatidylcholine contains standardized concentrations of silybin and isosilybin A and B not found in other milk thistle extracts.

Insider" correspondent and "Yo Show" host Michael Yo sat down with Kim at the junket for "Temptation," she opened up about why she continues to wear the clothes she loves while pregnant, explaining, "I want to feel good about myself and still feel fashionable. That's who I am. Happy mommy -- happy baby, Right?"
Kim is clearly standing by her extravagant fashion choices, but what do you think about her oh-so-pricey pregnancy style? Join the conversation on Facebook and Twitter, using #omginsider, and check out "omg! Insider" on TV for the latest entertainment news.

Five Remixes Better Than The Originals
Five Remixes Better Than The Originals
Everything in life is better when mixed. Milkshakes, smoothies, Chex Mix, fruit cups, you name it! Their transformed states are better than the original components on their own. Sometimes you can apply the same theory to music. A remix is a song that has been edited to sound different. From the pitch of the singer's voice to a slight change in the tempo, producers add their personal style creating a brand new product. Not every remix is the best, but these genius producers know how to flaunt their skills and make a great song even greater. Here are Five Remixes Better Than The Originals.
1. Mayer Hawthorne, "Her Favorite Song (Large Professor Remix)"
While Mayer Hawthorne's record "Her Favorite Song" satisfies with its charming tale of loneliness and groovy production, hip-hop producer Large Professor gives the song a whole new vibe with his remix. A veteran artist who has worked with notable names like Nas and Busta Rhymes, Large Professor fuses Hawthorne's falsetto vocals with '90s era boom bap drums, and even adds his own verse as a lyrical cherry on top.Check out Large Professor's remix of Mayer Hawthorne's "Her Favorite Song" above.
2. Empire Of The Sun, "Alive (Zedd Remix)"
The only word to describe the Zedd remix of Empire of the Sun's "Alive" is massive. He turns the indie summer tune into a high paced electro anthem. The song pays homage to the original by leaving its smooth vocal track untouched while smashing you in the face with gritty basslines and beat drops. Zedd's rendition is vastly different but still compliments Empire of the Sun's vision. Check it out above.
3. Disclosure, "You & Me (Flume Remix)"
Disclosure took a minimalist approach to their single "You & Me," combining glitch-synth with Eliza Doolittle's sweet voice. It's fleetingly pleasant, capturing a carefree demeanor. For the remix, Flume takes it deeper. The beat is filled with emotion, stabbing violins and stark drums drive the song to new heights. It almost reaches hip-hop territory, but that's the accomplishment of Flume's rendition; he makes it sound so worldly.Check out Flume's remix of Disclosure's "You & Me" above.
4. Woodkid, "I Love You (Pharrell Remix)"
Woodkid's rendition of "I Love You" is arguably one of the strongest tracks on the I Love You EP featuring female rapper Angel Haze who flaunts her skills like a pro. However, when one of the best producers of the generation, Pharrell, adds his own musical goodness to a song it's nothing less than extraordinary. Pharrell turned up the tempo adding pop-driven samples and warm sounding keys while Woodkid's vocals flutter in-and-out of the beat. He switches up the hip-hop orchestral vibe for a lighter, more cinematic sound. Genius.
5. Phoenix, "Trying To Be Cool (A-Trak Remix)"
Phoenix's single "Trying To Be Cool" is as smooth as a rock song can get, with its catchy guitar melody and crisp drums that take over the senses. A-Trak throws caution to the wind with his stellar two-step remix. The Canadian DJ blends colorful synth with lead singer Thomas Mars' vocals, and when the beat drops, the listener is in for a pulsating celebration of epic proportions.Check out A-Trak's remix of Phoenix's "Trying To Be Cool" here.

Test ID: 81107
JC Virus (JCV) Detection by In Situ Hybridization
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Confirming a clinical and histopathologic diagnosis of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML); especially helpful when only a small piece of biopsy material is available
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
JC virus (JCV) was isolated from brain tissue of a patient with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a rare, demyelinating, fatal disorder of the central nervous system which occurs on a background of immune deficiency. PML occurs as an infrequent complication of a wide variety of conditions, including: lymphoproliferative disorders such as Hodgkin disease, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and lymphosarcoma; chronic diseases such as sarcoidosis and tuberculosis, and primary immunodeficiency diseases. PML has also been recognized as a frequent complication of the AIDS. Most cases of PML, not associated with AIDS, occur in middle age or later life, but the disease may occur in an immunocompromised individual of any age and has been recognized in young children with immunodeficiency diseases.
JCV also infects humans in childhood and is present in most of the world's population. It is the etiologic agent of PML. Clinically, signs and symptoms of asymmetric multifocal brain disease without signs of increased intracranial pressure in a person who is immunocompromised would suggest the diagnosis of PML. Computed tomographic scan or magnetic resonance imaging of the brain is effective in establishing the diagnosis of PML in a noninvasive manner. The unique histopathologic features of PML can be identified by light microscopy of a brain biopsy specimen. JCV can be cultivated in cell cultures, and serologic assays have been developed, but nucleic acid detection methods are much more sensitive and rapid for making the laboratory diagnosis of PML using brain tissue.
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.
This test, when not accompanied by a pathology consultation request, will be answered as either positive or negative.
If additional interpretation/analysis is needed, please request 70012 / Pathology Consultation along with this test.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
"Positive for Polyomavirus (JC Virus)" indicates the presence of infection with JCV.
"Negative for Polyomavirus (JC Virus)" indicates the absence of cells infected with JCV.
A negative result is normal.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Prolonged formalin fixation may cause false-negative results. A few weeks appears to be the maximum time of fixation.
Submitted specimens will be screened by a pathologist to determine the acceptability of the specimen for the test.
Slides must be specially prepared, therefore, a paraffin-embedded, formalin-fixed tissue must also be submitted.
Clinical Reference Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

The ewes with orange and green tags in their ears are called 'Gimmers'. This is another name for a young female sheep reared for breeding purposes. We bought 40 gimmers in October last year and put them in the field ready to join the "Jigsaw Farm family"
I dedicate this post to the beautiful little sweetheart who is the daughter of Diary of a (not so) Single Mum and I promise to have a video for you soon.

[Rec] 2
The highly anticipated sequel to one of the scariest films of all time, "[REC] 2" picks up 15 minutes from where we left off, taking us back into the quarantined apartment building where a terrifying virus has run rampant, turning the occupants into mindlessly violent, raging beasts. A heavily armed SWAT team and a mysterious government official are sent in to assess and attempt to neutralize the situation. What they find inside lies beyond the scope of medical science -- a demonic nightmare of biblical proportions more terrifying than they could have possibly imagined. Above all it must be contained, before it escapes to wreak havoc on the unsuspecting world outside.

Guest DJ: James Blunt
Check out James Blunt's Guest DJ'd station on iHeartRadio
James Blunt is back with his latest album Moon Landing. James tells iHeartRadio, "What I've made is something I think, for me, has been a special journey and captured an album I really love."
James teamed up with iHeartRadio when he was in New York City recently to Guest DJ a radio station that represents his personal taste. Check out his favorite tracks and the stories behind them below!
1. "Back To Black" - Amy Winehouse
Well I suppose I've been in the music industry myself. I'm exposed in some ways to the pressures that are involved and I write about these kinds of things too. I've written a song called "Miss America" which is about Whitney Houston and I think her story is really similar to that of Amy Winehouses' phenomenal talent and an incredible voice. I suppose what I was touched by was the tragic story of Whitney Houston because, I think of Amy's too. So this is a song which brings out loads of memories for me when I was recording my second album, and a special person.
2. "Just THe Two Of Us" - Bill Withers
I've chosen this song really because it reminds me of that Mike Myers movie. What was the movie again? It was with Mini Me. Austin Powers! Just an awesome moment in an awesome movie but actually when you strip it back, it's a really brilliant song too.
3. "Heart of Glass" - Blondie
Blondie just had an amazing vibe really, and an amazing feel and sound and look. And this is a wicked song for me, [it] just brings out for me, again, really great memories.
4. "Babylon" - David Gray
When I started out in the music industry, the album that was out at the time and selling masses was White Ladder by David Gray. For me, it really kind of set the benchmark of an entire album where you could press play and listen to the whole thing. For me it didn't have a bad song on it and it's something I really aspire to as a musician. Some people have then said after my own album Back to Bedlamb, did I even open the door for other singer-songwriters. I think no I didn't. I think if anyone did for a period of time it was David Gray and probably his biggest hit from that is "Babylon."
5." I Will Follow You Into The Dark" - Death Cab For Cutie
Death Cab For Cutie are label mates of mine on Atlantic Records, and this is one of my favorite songs of all time. I don't know if it was a single of theirs, I didn't know if it was played on the radio, I have no idea what kind of charts success it is. It's just the most beautiful, delicate, sweet song both musically and lyrically.
6. "Walk On The Wild Side" - Lou Reed
One of my favorite albums of all time is Transformer by Lou Reed. It was a very special era for music as well and I'm very sad to hear about his passing, so that's why I've added "Walk On The Wild Side."
7. "Graceland" - Paul Simon
When I recorded my album Moon Landing, I lived with Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia from Star Wars) who was once upon a time was married to Paul Simon. His son Harper passes through the house occasionally, and again like I said with Lou Reed, Paul Simon came from a very special Golden Era of the singer/songwriter. I think as a musician he really truly is genius and I have The Paul Simon Anthology. [He is] really a truly inspiring musician and it's a fantastic song.
8. "Where Is My Mind" - Pixies
The Pixies are a cool sounding band and this is one of my favorite songs of all time and I've covered it too. I'm sure they're not too pleased that I might have covered it or not have done it any justice, but it's an amazing special song.
9. "Message In A Bottle" - The Police
I've loved The Police for years. What I've really loved about them - which is maybe what I've tried to take my own time around - is to enjoy and appreciate silence as much as sound. There are only three guys in that band and it's - you can really understand that actually you can use that sound and use that space. I've kind of tried to do the same with my own album Moon Landing and I suppose they also have a song called "Walking on the Moon" but this is a favorite song of mine called "Message In A Bottle."
10. "Wine" - U2
I think when I first started writing songs, I think I remember hearing this song and thinking it was probably the most perfect song I've ever heard. And if I'd ever wanted to achieve anything as a song writer, [to] try and make something as special as this. I don't think I ever have and I don't think I ever will.
Check out James' single "Heart To Heart" from his latest album Moon Landing below!

The Beneficial Realities Of Volunteer Employmentby Garth House, free-lance writer, NAMI Ohio volunteer, and author of Litanies For All Occasions (Judson Press, 1989)
In discussing volunteer employment, it is first necessary to rid ourselves of the false distinction between being a volunteer and holding a "real" job. Volunteer work is real work, with real responsibilities, real opportunities, real rewards. The only real difference is one of salary. I don't wish to minimize this difference, because mental health consumers are one of the most economically disenfranchised of all populations in America. But I would like to suggest that the paycheck is not the only reason consumers long to be involved in the workplace.
Employment usually ranks high on surveys of what mental health consumers would like to see in their lives. The adjective meaningful is often attached to the word employment, indicating that what is desired is more than a menial job. I would suggest, however, that what gives work its meaning or value goes far beyond the nature of the work itself and has to do with certain less tangible qualities of involvement in the workplace that render life itself a richer, more meaningful experience.
Among these qualities are such things as the structuring of "empty" time, the elimination of isolation, the opportunity for human interaction, the chance to make new friends, increased self-esteem, and the experience of being engaged with the world in the common rhythm of work and relaxation that goes with having a regular job.
All of these things are obtainable through volunteer employment, without some of the stresses and rigidity that go with having a paying job. Volunteers can set their own schedules. While they should be accountable for the hours they commit to, psychologically it is less stressful to be committed out of your own freedom than out of a contractual agreement based on a paycheck.
Volunteers are never taken for granted, but always appreciated. This is often not the case in the world of the paycheck. Volunteers have more flexibility in adjusting to the ups and downs of their psychiatric disability. Because they are not under the pressure of the paycheck, they can always put their recovery and the maintenance of their psychiatric health first, where it belongs.
The family movement in mental health-NAMI-offers particularly attractive opportunities for consumers to enrich their lives through volunteer work. First, there is such a tremendous need in this arena for manpower to accomplish the great challenges that face all of us with psychiatric disabilities. To be needed is one of the central qualities of having meaning in one's life. Second, working in the family movement places the consumer/volunteer on the other side of the mental health equation. When I began volunteering at NAMI Ohio in the early 90s, I can recall the dramatic change I felt in my own recovery as I realized that now I was involved in finding solutions, in fighting stigma, in working for positive change instead of simply struggling with my illness. It was extremely empowering "to take the offensive" against my illness. Third, volunteering within the NAMI family is one way to be certain that the work environment one enters will understand and respect the realities of brain disorders and the limitations of one's particular disability. In the NAMI office where I work, I feel completely comfortable and open about my brain disorder, and I'm treated with acceptance and respect by my co-workers because they have been enlightened about the truth of psychiatric disorders. Sadly, this often cannot be said of the workforce at large. Fourth, being a volunteer in a NAMI office offers tremendous opportunities for education and gaining insight into one's own illness and into brain disorders in general, as well as into the mental health system. Research articles, newsletters, bulletins, magazines, advocacy alerts, legislative summaries-they all come through the office where I work, keeping me abreast of all the latest developments in treatment, service delivery, consumer issues, legal and legislative issues, and more.
Volunteering for NAMI or for any organization is a way to enrich one's recovery and obtain the dignity and self-respect associated with employment. As a volunteer, I found myself able to look people in the eye who would ask me if I were working or where I worked. This question, which for many years caused me acute embarrassment and shame, was easily and boldly answered once I realized that my "volunteer" job was as real as any job and that it was no one's business what my salary or lack thereof was.
Volunteer work is also an excellent way to begin exploring the transition back into the world of paid employment. The flexibility, freedom, and lower stress levels in volunteer employment render it an ideal way to experiment with forays into the world of the paycheck. The volunteer workplace can become a laboratory where one can explore workplace issues: learning to interact with co-workers and supervisors, learning the extent or limitations in one's stamina, practicing the maintenance of a regular schedule, learning to dress for the workplace, becoming comfortable with interacting with the public, and in general getting used to the dynamic of work and relaxation that goes with working on a regular basis.
Volunteer work is an excellent way to learn and develop new skills and abilities. In my years with NAMI Ohio I have become computer literate, adept at word-processing, and familiar with the techniques of grant-writing, public relations writing, and fund-raising. Also, being a volunteer is an excellent way to network and make connections that can one day lead to paid employment.
Becoming a volunteer was one of the most important decisions I ever made in my recovery. The skills and abilities I have gained have well equipped me for the world of paid employment. The respect and affection of my co-workers in the office where I volunteer has helped immeasurably in ending my sense of isolation. The self-confidence I have gained through interacting with diverse people in the workplace has strengthened my sense of self and my faith in my own ability to cope with others. The routine of work and relaxation that accompany going into an office every day has left me feeling a part of society again. That I am needed where I work and missed when I am unable to be there gives an important sense of meaning and purpose to my life.

Easier/cheaper to use a takeoff set of front brackets from a junk D or W 250-350, drill frame accordingly, and flip shackle. Side benefit it that it looks almost stock because it uses OEM parts. The guys at RamCharger Central don't visit the junkyard too often I guess. My work rig is a '91 W250 so I'm no stranger to this mod.
As far as the welds, just finish the insides with 7018 and don't worry about it. The stock shackle isn't very strong when it's put in compression and will usually fold up before anything breaks. Stock shackle was designed to be in tension and is usually the weakest link in a shackle flip lift. EDIT: N/M looks like it's "done" judging by paint.
I know for a fact 91 CTD's use a smaller ID bushing size (and bolt) than 93 springs. I think they made the change in 91.5 or 92 model year. If you decide to try the OEM bracket trick, measure the bolt size. It's not the same for all first gens.

Ummm,,,, if "Danny" is who I think he is, you should be eating your words, right about now. The man has done more, comparing contrasting and critiquing, among power units, and the same among various brands of wire, than anybody else here.
Railmen, instead of making fun, why don't you do the same sometime, out of your own pocket?????? Post detailed pics, also, Dan is well known for good, close-up, detailed pics. With explanations.

Since you already know about the cold welds and are getting them fixed, all I have to say is nice brackets. Im sure they will hold up quite well with the correct welds.
Im going to make a couple of these for my truck to replace the rotted out ones.

Gallery: Spiral Garden is a Lacy Mesh Vertical Farm for the City
The designers wanted to create "a new environmentally-friendly town where the environment is considered as an important part of everyday life." Their proposal is a vertical farm that acts as the "green heart" of the city. Spiral Garden would be maintained by the people for the people and doing so would also give neighbors the chance to socialize.
Behind the transparent mesh lies a spiral containing an ascending garden where people can grow plants for food or just for aesthetic value, and the walkway serves as a place for those who don't garden to take a stroll. The structure itself is 14m in diameter and is partitioned into 59 plots that can be shared by families or individuals. There are also 170 bicycle parking spots so that people don't need to drive to access the garden. Last but not least, the Spiral Garden will also have a composting center for people to turn their organic rubbish into rich new soil.

Amy Fuller, new women's softball coach, begins tenure at ETSU
Thursday, December 05, 2002Johnson City, Tenn. (Dec. 5, 2002) - Former University of Tennessee at Martin women's softball coach Amy Fuller began her tenure as head coach of the East Tennessee State University squad this week. "I'm really excited about being here," said Fuller, who was a four-year letter winner for the University of North Carolina and won All-Atlantic Coast Conference in 1994. "I think the team here at ETSU has a lot of potential and this is a great conference to be competing in. This is a beautiful place to live and work." The 31-year-old Fuller earned her bachelors degree from UNC and received her teaching certificate later at UNC Charlotte. She also earned a masters degree in Education (School Counseling) from UT Martin in December 1999. Beyond her educational background, Fuller spent two seasons at UT Martin, a member of the Ohio Valley Conference, and led the Lady Skyhawks to a 16-22 season in 2001. She is taking over a Lady Bucs program that put together a solid season in 2001, going 25-32 overall, 9-12 in Southern Conference in just their second season of play. "This is a building program," said Fuller, who also enjoyed a stint as a player on the Silver Bullets Women's Professional Baseball Team before playing two seasons in the Women's Professional Softball League. "This is the third full year of the program and we have the potential to build this team into a powerhouse in the SoCon. We have a great recruiting base and this is a great school to recruit to."

University of Minnesota - TCF Bank StadiumThis panorama, photographed by Robert Pettit, captures the Minnesota Golden Gophers football team playing their first game at their beautiful new on-campus home - TCF Bank Stadium. The inaugural game was held on September 12, 2009. The Gophers were victorious against the United States Air Force Academy with a final score of 20 to 13. TCF Bank Stadium was built in a "horseshoe" design with incredible views of the Minneapolis skyline. The stadium, which seats 50,805, combines architectural elements from historic Memorial Stadium with the modern amenities of today's athletic venues. The Golden Gophers football team began play in 1882 and has won six national championships.
Bring your wall alive with the sight of glorious Golden Gophers gameday! A spectacular, rare University of Minnesota print you'll likely never see in stores. Printed in brilliant color and perfect focus on high-quality paper stock, and complete with a sharp white border that includes the official team logo and a brief descriptive paragraph, this is both a beauty for the wall of home or office, and a great collector's item for years to come. Perfect for the wall of any student, alumnus, athlete, Gophers fan, or Minnesota resident!

Plan for 1,200 new school places in Carlisle gets go-ahead
Last updated at 08:22, Friday, 16 March 2012
Investment of £12.65 million to provide 1,200 extra places at Carlisle primary schools is going ahead.
Cumbria County Council's cabinet has given the final seal of approval following the completion of a legal consultation process.
The plan is to add 176 extra places in reception classes from September.
This will eventually provide 1,232 more places as the expanded year group works its way through schools.
The showpiece is a rebuild of Pennine Way Primary, on the old North Cumbria Technology College site in Harraby, to open in September 2014 at a cost of £8.8m.
Caroline Sutton, the council's assistant director of children's services, said: "The reason we're bringing these proposals forward is because of a significant increase in the birth rate.
"If we didn't make changes to pupil admission numbers, we'd be likely to have too few places from 2012 onwards."
The council says it has chosen to expand schools where there is demand for places and room for expansion.
But Sarah Nuttall, headteacher of Bishop Harvey Goodwin Primary School in Currock, queried the plan to spend £1m on four new classrooms at nearby Upperby Primary when her school had spare capacity.
She asked councillors: "Is that the correct way to spend money?"
But Stewart Young, the council's deputy leader, said: "The timescale is tight. We've not got the leeway to delay."
Councillors also agreed to proposals to expand St Catherine's RC Primary School in Penrith, increasing the intake to 20.

Have your say
All for investing in children's education. Great News for Pennine Way.Don't worry, Bishop Harvey. If the pupil projections for your area are as seriously underestimated as the 2007 projections for North Carlisle, you will fully subscribed in no time.Well done, Stewart Young,let's bring some capacity into the area. There has been too many families without a local school.
Why are the Council spending/wasting money (the majority of their budget)on a new school at Pennine Way and creating extra places at a school that has NEVER been oversubscribed and probably never will be! Stuart Young says time is tight BUT that should not mean rushing into decisions which are OBVIOUSLY WRONG!They are expanding schools that have room to do so - easy option. Why not build a new school to replace Stanwix where everyone wants to go. Extra places will not solve the existing problems. As usual the Council are being shortsighted.

Gallery: The Louvre's Golden-Roofed Department of Islamic Arts Opens Th...
Plans for the new Department of Islamic Arts where unveiled in 2005 when Mario Bellini and Rudy Ricciotti won a competition to design the new gallery. The two level gallery is sunken into the the Visconti Courtyard in the middle of the Louvre's south wing, right below where the Mona Lisa lives. Not completely submerged, the gallery pokes out from the courtyard and is covered in what the architects called "a scarf floating within the space". The roof is now being referred to as the "luminous veil," or the "flying carpet" and provides 30,000 square feet of gallery space, which quadruples the space previously dedicated to Islamic Arts.
The roof is actually constructed of a free-form lattice composed of 8,000 steel tubes and glass covered by gilded metal. The undulating canopy contains the open floor plan gallery space where objects are displayed in glass cabinets. A large staircase descends to the lower level where natural daylight seeps in around the edges. A significant amount of work for the project required the team to excavate down 40 feet without disturbing the palace's original foundation. The result is a cavernous space reminiscent of a tent illuminated with a soft golden light.

One of the oldest remaining settlements of the original 13 American colonies, the city of Albany, NY welcomes your visit with a few delightful Albany hotels dating back to the 18th century, enhanced by an abundance of contemporary, nationally branded lodging. If your preferences run toward historic hotels, you will find several near the downtown area. While shorter on aesthetics, the more contemporary national lodging brands offer longer amenity lists and affordable rates near the Colonie Center and the airport, as well as along major highway routes throughout the area.
This New York State capital city, together with the cities of Troy, Schenectady, and Saratoga Springs, are often referred to as the Capital District. Many remarkable historic hotels are in close proximity. The city of Albany's downtown district sits on the west bank of the Hudson River, close to the Empire State Plaza, State University of New York Albany campus, museums, the medical center, and Lincoln Park.
The Albany Morgan State House Inn, ca 1888, offers you a comfortable stay in an authentically renovated six-room mansion. Working fireplaces, spacious rooms, and elegant décor echo the 19th century. Do ask for a room in the main house, as it offers the best of the accommodations. The experience at the historic 74 State hotel is similar, with the added attraction of on-site dining and a fitness center. Neither have pools, but both are nestled up next to the city's most interesting urban features, and both are competitively priced.
If a more modern hotel brand has appeal for your stay in Albany, know that there are many options located throughout the metropolitan area and the greater Capital District. Most have pools, gyms or workout areas, and business facilities.

Zond 2 was the Soviet Union's first third-generation ("3MV") spacecraft sent toward Mars. This particular model, the 3MV- 4, was designed to fly by the planet and take photographs.
After the spacecraft successfully entered a trans-Mars trajectory, ground controllers discovered that the probe's solar panels had not completely unfurled, which deprived the vehicle of full power. Later investigation indicated that a tug cord, designed to pull the panels free at the moment of separation from the Blok L upper stage, had broken off.
Controllers were able to fully open the panel only on 15 December 1964, but by then the time for the first midcourse correction to fly by Mars had already passed. Additionally, between communications sessions, there had been a failure in the onboard programmed timer immediately after transinterplanetary injection that led to inappropriate thermal conditions for the spacecraft.
On 18 December 1964, before loss of contact, Zond 2 successfully fired six plasma electric rocket engines (twice) as a technology demonstrator for future deep space missions.
The spacecraft was to have flown by Mars on 6 August 1965. It eventually entered heliocentric orbit.

if there is anything incorrect in this instructable, please let me know.
Also, these pictures are from google images to illustrate my points.
Step 1: The Law
You may not carry a knife with more than 3" of cutting edge, and it may not lock open. Butterfly knives, flick knives, or other assisted opening knives are also banned; if you are caught with one in public, you will end up in jail.
Knives over this length may not be carried without good reason. The exception to this is :
1. Knives carried for work
2. Knives carried for religious reasons
3. Knives carried as part of national dress
As for what a public place is:
The Prevention of Crime Act 1953 section 1(4) provides that;
'a public place includes any highway and any other premises to which the public have or are permitted to have access, whether on payment or otherwise'
This also includes your car (even if it is locked).
here in Texas, switchblades were recently legalized and there's not a lot of options besides stilettos (which are illegal), any thoughts?
Life saver situations,Vickies.
Ask any fishermen we all know fellows saved by this knife.
Victorinox knife
Your knife laws suck ! Chop off their hands, so they can do no wrong !!
Here, in NZ, laws are not perfect, but not that harsh.
I believe that we should all be held accountable for our actions, but be allowed to make rational decisions regarding knives, that we may wish to make use of.
but I do agree that most rat tails are bad, especially the more modern ones as they tend to be of poor quality and mostly for show rather than practical use.
As far as examples, any sword under $70) and most fixed blade knives under $30. There are exceptions, not all makers price the same(of course in that price range I wouldn't buy from a maker). Few people advertise a rat tail tang as it's considered undesirable for the reasons mentioned above. This means only honest or the unknowing tell you it's rat tail and that means most people won't tell you if they can help it.
Last word: Rat tail tangs are cheap and can be dangerous in an often used knife. Most people who have a fixed blade have bought a cheap rat tail and they either found out the hard way or don't use it very often at all. Below are some informational links on rat tails.
As a final note, one of the most popular and highly recommended beginner bushcraft knives (which if you are talking survival is the way to go; if you want a fighting knife you are looking at something completely different) is the 'Frost Mora' constructed with a half tang and a very thin blade, look through the reviews on amazon or on any bushcraft/survival forum and see if anyone has managed to break on of those.
I have seen slipping and rotating on a rat tail knife. I spose that's one that does and one that does not.
With regard to the information on shear force, I'm not referring to a solid piece. I'm referring to when the tang is welded on. I believe you can weld a rat tail(or any tang type) on very well, but if you're putting the effort into welding it on well, you're not using a rat tail. This isn't a "it cannot be done" it's a "if [this] than [that]".
Thinking on it again, I still don't understand where the comment about a half tang knife came into this, genuinely.. The Frost Mora has a 2.5 mm thick blade and tang. Also, the tang is half tang, it doesn't seem to apply to this conversation.
I have been working in the USA for a number of years up in the white mountains, so I have accumulated a couple nice pocket knives, one of them being the same gerber as pictured above.
However, reading the law, as the bit you have posted in the article, I am not permitted to have this on my person anywhere in the UK...
Does this law prevent me from using this utility pocket knife, out on the trail? I am prepping for a late spring trek (c2c)
What about a leatherman? length wise its just within the 3" cutting edge limit, but they all lock open!
Sometimes these rules and regs of the UK can be such a pain in the butt!
Pilots carried an assortment of knifes. The first is a pocket knife. The Mil-k-818 spec knife is a flat sided, stainless steel "campers type" knife. It has a 3 inch blade, a can opener, a bottle opener and an awl. It has a bail so you can attach a line on it so that you don't loose it. Several companies used to make these....Camillus ( now out of business)...I belive the Ontario knife company still makes it. It retails for about $40...sometimes you can buy them surplus for less. The next knife I sold was the pilots knife. There are several....One USAF knife has a Parkerized blade about 5"....it has a saw tooth blade on the top of the knife. IT has leather washer handle in a leather sheath. Most useful is a sharpening stone. Between the blade and the grip is a square hilt with two holes on it. These holes are to lash the knife to a pole or stick to use as a spear. There is a hammer type but cap to use as a ....what else...a hammer. Altho this styke has been around since WW2...it has a lot going for it....full hilt thru the grip.... the sharpening stone and lash able holes. The Kabar knife is excellent...but is a bit big. I don't think you should have s survival knife with a blade 7" or over. IF you want a machete...carry a machete....Stay away form the Movie knives as mentioned in this excellent article. I also believe you should stick with carbon steel as it is easier to sharpen. All u need do to protect the knife from rust is to oil the blade from time to time......Look at used bayonets, even from wW2. The steel and design is good....just get one with a reasonable blade length ...less than 7" and a grip that is comfortable for your hands, There are a lot of Russian bayonets coming into the country for about $20-30....with a sheath. IF the bayonet has any large fittings to attach to a rifle these can be removed or ground off...I know that custom knives cost hundreds of dollars...but if you have a good knife that meets many of the above criteria,....you should have a good tool...weapon..... be wary of a knife that is too cheap...the steel may be inferior ...or the handle may break...not what you want in a survival situation...again...the military knifes have passed a specification which calls out the quality of the materials and the testing criteria...they are pretty tuff...
If I might suggest a good cheap starting point, a sort of easy way into the survival knife choice, the Hultafors heavy duty knife is a good all rounder while the blade is a bit on the short side it's an ideal camp knife. It is available for £6 at Jan 2013. Carbon steel, large plastic handle and a plastic sheath.
I found it to be an excellent "starter" knife to get you into caring for your blades and at the price it won't matter too much if you mess it up.
what about this one? its 9 inch with 4.5 inch blade and full tang
Also, what do you think of the Gerber LMF II ASEK as a survial knife?
Personally, I'm fond of drop-points (pretty much the opposite of the sheepsfoot - the spine is straight to the point, and the edge curves towards the spine (like a rounded tanto)) - it makes for a really strong tip, yet possesses a belly for skinning/whittling/whatever (very difficult to do with a tanto point)
I'd also strongly recommend against a serrated blade for a survival knife (especially if you are planning on using it for skinning or gutting). While serrations can be really helpful for fibrous materials like cloth and rope, and give the knife a sawing/tearing ability even when dull, they also make it extremely difficult to sharpen, and make tasks like skinning and whittling nearly impossible (both would be quite useful to make tools/prep food).
Anyways, not to get too detailed, but yeah, a clip point is generally all around-good, and frequently favored by a lot of people, and can do most tasks well.
I've also seen a few handmades where they have a full tang, but hollowed out and removable handle scales for stashing a couple tiny things like fish hooks or a flint or something.
It is also worth mentioning blade thickness (I personally prefer 0.25in thickness as I favor durability over anything else). Also that extra thickness allows you to strike harder and use for prying or hammering.
A paracord handle might be a good idea since it can be replaced at any time or used for other purposes such as making as spear. Full tang always (rat tail may still break).
For steel I like S30V because it is very durable and stainless. Also INFI steel (from Busse) is incredibly strong although not very stainless. A good but cheap one is 440C. One must remember that knife makers may give different treatments to those metals.
Finally it depends on what do yo want your knife for. I like my knives for survival AND collecting, so I favor extremely durable, although expensive knives but if you only care for the survival more than the knife itself you can get almost the same results with far cheaper knives. Top notch brands would be "Strider knives", "MercWorx knives" and "Busse knives". For the inexpensive yet incredibly useful I recommend "Muela knives".
I also particularly recommend a small uitility knife that still covers all my points mentioned above: the Strider WP-T (or Strider WP Tanto). You can get it with almost any kind of tip you want if you don't like tanto points. Google it.
Nice guide again! Very in-depth and well thought out.
for mine a leatherman style product has been the most effective, and any other options have been covered as part of the every-day carry philosophy.
Good luck!
For cutting tasks, don't buy too heavy, thick, or long of a blade. The knife with the polished blade and wood handle has a blade profile similar to a Buck Nighthawk that I own. It is a good bush knife for heavy use, but is not the ideal for things like food prep or skinning. This type is good for bushcraft and other heavy tasks though.
For actual standard cutting, you can get really excellent deals on Opinel or Mora. They easily keep a razor sharp edge (particularly the carbon steel versions) and for food prep or fine cutting they will last a long time.
Once you learn about basic steel types, you can save a ton of money if you are buying for basic utility. For actual use, beware spending on the design, appearance and exotic engineering of a basic blade...unless you are buying for collecting purposes. Spend your money on the steel for the purpose intended.
