Americans Adapting To A New Idea Of Prosperity! Is Grand Rapids Adapting Too?
With unemployment on the rise, many Americans still, are finding reasons to be thankful. Many times you just never know what you're made of until you find yourself in a changed position. New places, new people, new things also can offer new opportunities if you are on the look out and expecting them

What is the primary role of the museum in the modern world?
Museums have many roles, responsibilities and functions, some of which arose with the origin of western museums hundreds of years ago, others very new. This is a major debate in the field of Museum Studies as well as other associated fields. Some historical roles have included the museum as a place for academic research, as an educational institution, or both. Most museums continue to perform in this role. More recently the museum has been championed as a place of social interaction, a center for social justice and even a space for experimentation, invention and innovation where visitors can learn how to get involved. What do you think the museum does?
Nov 19 2012: I think it does exactly what you have stated. Museums pose a place where history and mystery come alive. A place where imagination and creativity are tangible. Online for example, you can only research, it does not give you a grasp of the feel, smell or even the sheer size of objects. Coming together with classmates, friends and family discussing topics is a social event that I would find difficult to duplicate online.Nov 18 2012: I believe the museum serves as a place for reflection of lessons learned from our past. They also are places where idea peculation can occur which lead to innovation. I believe museums would be better suited near colleges or educational institutions. It would better serve the educational community to encourage or require the attendance of its members at museums.

Nov 18 2012: Richard, I think this is an excellent question. I watched Night at the Museum last night (stay with me!) and the sequel deals with the premise that all the original artifacts are to be shipped to a storage unit and replaced with virtual interactive exhibits; the central tenet involved exploring why we need to keep original artifacts in modern day museums,and it was a compelling (if not a little saccharine) story. As with most things what was decided was a combination of original exhibits and modern technology is the best way for a museum to go....now I believe Museums serve the loftiest purpose...that of LEARNING; to behold actual primary sources of our domestic, cultural and spiritual evolution gives us opportunities for deep experience (that is to say experience filled with awe and wonder). I believe children and adults alike will forever marvel at the contents of museums and I read recently that most only show 10% of their actual stock...now a virtual tour of their 'backstage' areas would be fascinating.It's what's not on show that just arouses our curiosity! Also I recently heard of the Grayson Perry exhibition in London in which he chose key objects and linked them through his interpretation of how they fit into ours (and his) world...a really interesting take on curating.This essentially challenges the divide between museum and art gallery....brilliantly thought provoking.

Nov 20 2012: This is an important discussion in the museum field: on the one hand visitors can learn a great deal from looking at real objects, on the other hand, we do not learn passively, we are active learners and so many of us learn by doing. So, this is what brings about the debate over interactivity which comes up briefly in the Night at the Museum movie. Interactives can be great ways of getting visitors to actively engage with the material in a way that they can not by simply looking at objects. The idea of interactives is terrific, however, many museum professionals, such as myself, believe that the reality of interactives falls quite far below what it could be. Too often interactives are simple activities such as doing simple puzzles or connecting the dots. Interactive exhibits should be much more challenging and inspire creative thinking. Interactive exhibits should not only be "hands on" but also "mind on".
Nov 20 2012: ..great point, I think technology and the imagination can dream anything when coupled together...realizing these is quite another matter...'hands and minds on' I love that, you're right museums must make us think....might I develop this further and say the ideal museum should foster a 'heads, heart and hands on' approach to grip the next generation....Nov 21 2012: At my local art museum we use volunteers who are trained about the exhibits and to interact with people about the work as sorts of wandering docents.
The zoo has something similar.Nov 16 2012: Richard, in our daily lives, we receive information primarily via electronic and paper media where we use either one or two senses (sight, hearing). Museums provide us information in an environment where we can use most of our senses enabling a refreshing learning experience. It is like reading a book by walking , seeing ,touching, hearing and feeling. .
Shyam Sundar
Nov 16 2012: A museum is a inspiration for those who love history, but its more than that. Every Museum speaks a story not just humans but of most living things. There are places for social interaction but museum is a gateway to past.Nov 15 2012: A museum could serve as a reminder of the events/ways of the past; and sometimes these reminders helps in keeping the future in proper perspective. A visit to the Apartheid museum in Johannesburg is a reminder of the dangers of racism and a pointer to the fact that the nation has made progress.

Nov 15 2012: oh, several things at once, and different things for different people. Speaking for myself, in life, I usually try to mix some fun into my work, or some work into my fun. So going to a museum is fun, because it's relaxing, there's no pressure, you're looking at beautiful, ingenious, often humorous works; and yet it's work because you have a responsibility, or anyway i feel a responsibility, to do something with what I'm looking at, to use it somehow to make myself smarter, funnier, more informed, more productive.

Nov 15 2012: It's like a bank where the currency is reminders of why we should pay attention to our world.Nov 21 2012: i totally agree with you museums have significant roles of our lives...however effectivity of cultural activities has been changing day by day with technologic development... most of the people are visiting museums to take photographs and to share via facebook or twitter...people see art objects as a beatiful scenes from there. Shortly they don't think deeply on the art objects therefore museums should interact with people and teach the rules of artNov 21 2012: I think the type of museum matters immensely. In general, I would say though that the primary role is to aid us in walking through what we once were. If that lends itself to historical research, so be it. If it inspires cultures obsessed with what we once were and congregate in a social sense then sure, that's that museums purpose, but I do not think that there is a museum in existence that wouldn't fit into my above definition of a purpose.Nov 20 2012: Evidently it is to cause embarressment.

I go to a museum and see things I used in the past and several I still use and they have it listed as artifacts or antiques.
Darn whippersnappers.Nov 20 2012: Personally, I would love to see more collaboration between our existing educational institutions and museums. Museums are a remarkable center for learning specific concepts or topics and our universities and K12 institutions are wonderful homes for broader educational initiatives. Traditionally, students travel to museums to learn extended topics, but (in St. Louis anyway) there are also some remarkable outreach efforts to bring the exhibits to those not as mobile.
Comment deleted
Nov 20 2012: The truth is neither of them are correct. You are correct that the facts are skewed within museums. But it isn't only museums that do this, but also the writers and publishers of history books, etc. The pyramids were built by the ancient Egyptians, however it is not as simple as it sounds. For thousands of years, Egypt was a section of the Nubian Empire, which originated in Ethiopia. The Egyptians and Nubians fought many wars over territories, with each conquering the other and lands going back and forth several times. It has largely been pushed aside that the Nubian Empire ever conquered Ancient Egypt, precisely because of the sort of racism you suspect. Many archaeologists that study Ancient Egypt do not want to accept that it was ever conquered, especially by an Empire of black peoples from below. However, the archaeological evidence maintains that Ancient Egypt was a region of the Nubian Empire for at least two thousand years, and furthermore, that much of the grand innovations of the ancient Egyptians were created under Nubian control.
Nov 21 2012: Having artifacts on display allows thoughtful and up-to-date discussion of what is known of their origins.
Many people's concept of what museums do is out of date, with much greater emphasis today on bringing forward the works of sectors of the creative population that used to be less represented.Nov 20 2012: Personally, I don't think that it even matters that much. I understand that your black friends want to be proud of their history and heritage, but the beauty of history is the humanity of it, the achievements, the stories that are told. In my opinion, it doesn't matter who did what or what color their skin was. It is all part of one great story.Nov 20 2012: I am not an archaeologist and have not read any academic journal articles about this issue, however, I did read a very good article about this in Nat Geo. http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2008/02/black-pharaohs/robert-draper-text.html This article is very readable, but does not patronize the reader. It is a good representation of a hidden piece of history.Nov 19 2012: I noticed you have not tagged any talks here. Have you listened to this one: http://www.ted.com/talks/thomas_p_campbell_weaving_narratives_in_museum_galleries.html
I think you will love it.
Nov 20 2012: Yes I saw that talk. It was very good. Enjoyed it alot. :)Nov 15 2012: first and foremost, let us not forget that the past is the window to the future..... is this a good reason?Nov 15 2012: Also, I would like to clarify the above statement: I realize that there is ambiguity in my separation of academic research and education. I just noticed it now. Yes, both of these could be categorized as educational functions, of course. However, I was focusing on the separate functions of academic or scholarly research and education of the larger visiting public. There is a debate, particularly with Natural History Museums, History museums, Art museums and other disciplinary museums over which is more important: the continued production of knowledge via academic and scholarly study of the collections, or the dissemination of knowledge to the general public.
Nov 15 2012: There doesn't need to be a conflict. Isn't it pretty much a matter of economics and creativity on the board? Can your institution afford to include a research and/or education department for the benefit of members or visitors? If so, to what extent. Is there a volunteer base to support it? Is there a visitor base to support it?
An example of what you are referring to might help. I've been to museums with a restricted research departments. I've been to museum performances. I've been directed to an archeological dig. Some local museums have genealogy departments - and if you have ever done a genealogy, you know that it is a study of history in all of its dimensions, not just a search for ancestors (unless you are Mormon).
Art museums, it seems to me, are a different animal and are one that should certainly find a way to combine the art with interesting, interactive and otherwise education. There is so much opportunity to do so.
In my humble opinion, the biggest problem with many museums is that they are so limited to their area of expertise that they seem to forget that the rest of the world was coexisting. Not a universal problem, but a significant one.Nov 15 2012: I realize that it will help this discussion if I explain a little bit about myself. I am an emerging museum professional, so I admit that this is a very important subject to me, however, I always try my best not to let my own bias scew the way I see the world. I have completed a Masters in Museum Studies at the School of Museum Studies, University of Leicester. I am interested in all museum functions, however, my primary interests are in interpretation, curating and collections management, education (primarily informal, but also in more formal forms) and to a lesser extent the museum as a site of social justice. My Masters Adviser, Dr. Richard Sandell is a champion of the museum as a social institution. While I admire his work and support it, I have differences in opinion of exactly what social functions museums can and should perform. Hope this helps.Nov 15 2012: Back in 2005, my husband and I sold our home, bought a motorhome, and went out to explore America. We visited many hundreds of museums in the lower 48 states over a period of 5 years. Most offered a wealth of knowledge about the history and culture of the area in which we were, or the theme that represented the reason for the museum's or exhibit's existence. They are wonderful institutions for learning and I learned SO MUCH!
There was one single exception. That was the official State museum of South Carolina. It did not recognize that the South lost the Civil War. It made no mention of the role of plantations or even slavery to the development of the state. It didn't even mention cotton or indigo (etc) that slaves produced. The gift shop sold photos and biographies for all the Confederate Generals and you could buy a confederate or South Carolina flag, but no where was there so much as a single picture of Lincoln or any Cherokee or non-white person. It did not recognize the Civil Rights era. It did not recognize Jim Crowe. There was a one-room school house on an upper floor, and about 20 feet away from it, in an inconspicuousness place, was a small index-card-sized notice that said "Some schools for black children were not this nice". That was the entirety of any message that mentioned the black population.
It left one thinking that when the whites came to the land, they found the land uninhabited and no black person made a meaningful contribution. No mention of the Cherokee or the Trail of Tears. It dedicated a huge room to an earthquake that destroyed the lovely homes of the wealthy whites in Charleston and the problems they faced as a result.
All in all, it was a testament to and lesson in hate and ignorance.
So, in answer to your question, I have to say that it depends on the museum.
Nov 15 2012: Thank you for this response, Ted Lover. On behalf of the international museum community I want to express my shock at reading the above. Unfortunately, there is no concrete definition of what a museum is, only guidelines and characteristics that most museums have. This unfortunately leaves room for unprofessional and unethical institutions to call themselves museums. The above museum would never have a chance to get accredited by the American Alliance of Museums. Unfortunately, as most museums in the United States are independent financially, most do not need to get accredited. I am sorry to hear about this experience. There is a very good organization in Indiana called "Follow the Northern Star". It is both a museum and a theatrical experience, where for 1 hour, you navigate your way through the carefully designed town, meeting various characters along the way. It is classed as confrontational theater, which means that it is quite an emotional experience and is only recommended for adults who are mature enough to handle it. Terrific program where you get to experience what is was like to be a run away slave.
Nov 15 2012: I do want to repeat that this was the single exception. I LOVE America's museums and some have been extraordinary!Nov 15 2012: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TweKoGysGW8Nov 15 2012: The actors in this organisation are bound by a rigid code of conduct. They are not allowed to touch a visitor for any reason. Derogatory remarks, verbal abuse and antagonistic gestures are permitted as long as they follow the script and primary goals of the organization. Actors are required to be aware of how a visitor is responding to the experience and they must disassociate themselves from the visitor in any case of a highly emotional reaction.
Nov 15 2012: Next time we go traveling in your direction, I'll be sure to add your museum to the list. Thanks for the YouTube link. Very interesting.Nov 15 2012: Permits patrons direct access to original artifacts, so they can make thier own observations and draw their own conclusions.Nov 15 2012: My perception is that different museums position themselves to serve different needs from among those you describe.
A museum with a significant collection of great works of human creative achievement over the millenia will be positioned to meet traditional needs to capture human creative history, whereas a younger museum with a small budget may focus on engaging a diverse array of visitors in considering the ideas suggested by a mostly contemporary collection.Nov 14 2012: To displays things from the past that no longer exist. E.G. the free market in the western world.

Hi Everyone, I am brand new here and look forward to talking and learning from you all. I am an novice/intermediate welder that is self taught from books/vids/welding practice.
Up to now, I have been satisfied with my skill, but now I would like to take it to a different level. I am looking into welding school (I know that is the absolute best way besides experience), but I hope to get even more of an edge talking to you experienced welders.
I recently bought a Miller 220V res. spot welder (can't remember the full no. but I think it had "LM" part of it). It works very nicely and I am getting much better at using it. My only problem is that when I finish the spot weld, the contacts are sticking to the steel. It is regular mild steel sheets, between 20 ga. and 16ga. .
I am getting good welds with good fusion, but many times, the contacts stick and when I pull them apart, it leaves small traces of the copper electrodes. I tried some anti spatter, thinking that it will stop the sticking, but for the same timing as a previous weld, it burnt through the steel much faster and splattered alot.
Any help with how to stop the sticking?
Thanks very much,

Tell us more about your equipment. Are you using water cooled tongs? Does your spot welder have a timer? How are the tongs actuated? Is it a manual pinch with your hands on a lever, or foot operated, or pnuematic?
More than likely you are getting the weld too hot or you are arcing at the tip face. Make sure that your material is very clean on all sides.
Thanks very much for the responses. The tongs are perfectly clean and lined up. It is not water cooled, and no timer. It is manual pinch with manual lever. I have practiced alot with it and have achieved pretty good timing and resultant welds. I got a good divit front and back without squeezing the metal out. I did a few distuctive tests with good results.
The only problem I have is the tong tips sticking to the base metal, and when I pull them off, it leaves small amounts of trace copper in the weld area.
I noticed in the instructions, it says not to use the welder as a clamp, and to adjust the tension so that it is not overly tight. The steel is brand new and freshly cleaned up on all 4 sides. I use vice grips to get very good fitup, and I adjusted to tongs so that it contacts, but does not act as a strong clamp. Maybe this is the problem. Do you think it could be too loose? Would that cause this condition?
Thanks again.
Still looking for any help.
It has been almost 2 years...and I am still looking for any help. Haven't done much practive with this spotwelder, but I did enlargen the tips to about .200"
what do you all think?

I have no experience with what you are working with, but sounds like you have been thoroughly testing different settings and with all the things you tested I guess you might have stumped some people to not get an answer.
Got any pictures? They always say a picture is worth a thousand words. Maybe of your setup and pictures of the end weld result with the trace copper left.
Is it depositing copper every time? Only at the end of the weld? I do know someone here at my work that works with spot welders for photomultiplier tubes. Different application, but maybe he would know something.

George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead
Horror, Suspense/Thriller
Jason Creed and a small crew of college filmmakers are in the Pennsylvania woods making a no-budget horror film when they hear the terrifying news that the dead have started returning to life. Led by Jason's girlfriend, Debra, the frightened young filmmakers set off in a friend's old Winnebago to try to get back to the only safety and security they know: their homes. But, there is no escape from the crisis, nor any real home for them anymore. Everything they depend upon is fractured as the plague of the living dead begins to spread. Jason documents the true-life horrors in a tense, first-person style that heightens the reality of each encounter. Even as his friends die, even as they are attacked by ravenous walking corpses at every stop along the way, Jason keeps filming, an obsessive, unflinching eye in the midst of chaos. The government first denies, then promises to quell the crisis, but can't. Technology fails. Communication with the rest of the world becomes impossible. Jason and what remains of his crew end up on their own, a handful of lucky survivors, reliant on no one but themselves to stay alive. They take final refuge in a fortress of a mansion, but their sanctuary turns out to be a trap from which there is no escape. Throughout it all, the cameras keep rolling, recording every detail for future generations--if any survive.

Danielle Foxhoven: From Rush to Russia
Congratulations to our very own Danielle Foxhoven who has recently signed with FC Energy Voronezh. The team is located in Voronezh, Russia. The team started out in the USSR Women's Championship League but since the fall they have competed in Russia's Premier League. They have the most championships in the Russian league, winning five championships. They are three time quarter finalists in the UEFA Champions League. Danielle has signed a four month contract with the FC Energy.
Rush W-League General Manager Dominique Hoecherl had a chance to sit down with Danielle and asked a few questions about her great news, here are her responses:
How did you feel after you were drafted to a WPS team?
After the WPS draft I was so excited! It was such an honor to be one of the 23 players picked. It was incredible to see my name pop up and I was just really excited to have the opportunity to keep playing. Having said that, I also knew that it meant I was going to have to put in more work than ever to make the team still.
What was your reaction to the suspended WPS season?
When the league suspended operations it was a really sad day for a lot of people, especially for fans, and players. A lot of players were counting on a season because they were already contracted to their teams. Unfortunately, a lot of women hung up their boots after this. That made me really sad to see so many amazing athletes stop playing. I was also saddened to not be a part of the league, and it threw so many questions back into the mix.
How did the Russia opportunity come about?
The Russian opportunity came about through an agent that I have hired. The Rush helped me get in touch with him and he has really done an awesome job of representing me and his other athletes.
What are your expectations?
My expectations I place all on myself. I don't know what to expect from Russia, the team or the girls so I am not going to speculate. The only thing I can expect is for myself is to work hard to earn a starting position and become a major part of the team.
What are your concerns?
I definitely have concerns with the language. It will be hard to communicate with the players and coach but I am excited to try.
What are you looking forward to?
I am looking forward to playing and to traveling. This is such an amazing opportunity to live in a new part of the world. No matter what happens I get the opportunity to do what I love in a completely new part of the world.
On behalf of the Colorado Rush and W-League Team, we wish you luck Danielle!

I've made a 2L yeast starter (Wyeast 2633 Octoberfest) and placed in the fridge this morning. My original goal was to brew tonight but I may not be able to. Will the yeast colony still be good for a few days if it remains in fridge?

It should be fine if you store it in the fridge for up to 1-2 weeks. I have heard you could let it go longer but to be on the safe side I would use it sooner rather than later. If you do let it sit longer you could always decant the liquid and add more wort to get it going again.

Courses in Religious Studies are designed to enrich the student's education by presenting an opportunity to investigate this important aspect of human life and culture in an objective manner, utilizing standard disciplines of academic learning.
The Religious Studies curriculum is designed to relate the phenomenon of religion to the totality of human existence. In our liberal arts context this means raising the consciousness of potentially every student to the pervasive and often hidden influence of religious ideas and value commitments in his or her personal life and cultural heritage. It also means fostering and developing those critical and reflective habits of mind that enable a person to deal with religious phenomena in a mature, intelligent, informed, sensitive, responsible, personally satisfying and fulfilling way.

Made for cool water: 55-60º F/12-16º C.
When we started making wetsuits, we quickly identified neoprene as a material that needed improvements to lessen its environment impact. So we met with the folks from Yulex who wanted to leverage the unique properties of the guayule plant, a hearty desert shrub native to the southwestern United States. Thus began a collaborative long-term project to develop a wetsuit material from guayule rubber.
Compared to traditional neoprene made from petroleum (or limestone), guayule rubber is a renewable resource that provides improved elasticity and softness and can be replaced faster than the product wears out. The agriculture is low-impact and the extraction and processing uses little energy and few chemicals.
Overall, from the crops to the rubber manufacturing, Yulex® guayule rubber has a lower environmental impact than the polychloroprene that it replaces.
We promote fair labor practices, safe working conditions and environmental responsibility throughout the Patagonia supply chain.
Below are the suppliers that impact the Patagonia Men's R2® Yulex®/Nexkin® Front-Zip Full Wetsuit

ICBA Celebrates Small Business Week
Washington, D.C. (May 21, 2012)—The Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA), and community banks nationwide are joining the Small Business Administration (SBA) in celebrating National Small Business Week, May 20 through May 26. ICBA, the nation's voice for community banks, is reminding everyone about the critical role community banks serve in supporting local small businesses.
"Small businesses are critical to the economic stability of this country," said Jeff Gerhart, ICBA chairman and chairman, Bank of Newman Grove, Neb., noting that small businesses have accounted for 65 percent of the private sector job creation over the past 15 years. "Not only do community banks support local small businesses through unparalleled lending, they are also local small businesses themselves. This means that community banks understand their local markets better than anyone and also understand the challenges their customers face."
Community banks under $10 billion in assets provide nearly 60 percent of small business loans between $100,000 and $1 million. For their size, community banks are prolific small business lenders—providing a substantial number of small business loans across the country, including SBA loans. By lending to local entrepreneurs and small businesses, community banks help local economies thrive—driving economic growth and prosperity.
Representing more than 24,000 locations nationwide and employing nearly 300,000 Americans, ICBA members hold more than $1.2 trillion in assets, $1 trillion in deposits and nearly $750 billion in loans to consumers, small businesses and the agricultural community.
Gerhart went on to say that small business owners and consumers can find their local community bank by visiting ICBA's Community Bank Locator at www.banklocally.org. "Simply type in your ZIP code and the app will show you all the community banks in your area. You can even download free ICBA locator apps for your iPhone, Android or BlackBerry," he said.
To follow the conversation on Small Business Week, follow the hashtags #SBW2012 and #golocal on Twitter. To learn more about community banks, visit www.icba.org.

Tufted Single-Person Swinging Hammock Chair
Settle back into once of these eye-enticing single swings and prepare yourself for a wonderful relaxation surprise!
A comfy, compact chair with wings!
From a distance, that's really how this single-person swing appears, with its spray of hanging ropes fanning out from the enticingly contoured seat to meet in two pretty macramé knots, and the top fabric colored like some brilliant ocean sky. Now ease yourself into this inviting little beauty, and prepare to be delighted that much more to find that looks, in this case, are anything but deceiving!
The fabric is two layers of synthetic solution-dyed Sunbrella sandwiching a thick center of nonabsorbent polyester hollowfill fiber made from recycled plastic drink bottles. The most recognized name in outdoor fabric, Sunbrella is not only resistant to rot, mold, mildew and staining, but is also exceptionally colorfast, with a softness recalling cotton.
The pillowy contours are courtesy of 10 nickel-plated rolled-rim grommets, which also help prevent rainwater from pooling in the swing seat.
The cushion spans 2 feet across, while the 40-inch cumaru-wood spreader bar holds the DuraCord hanging ropes open wide, so the swing seems to grow larger the higher up you go. Zinc-plated steel hanging chains and hardware further ratchet up both looks and durability. Assembly required
Dimensions: 40" L x 24" W x 40" H; 7 lbs.

Challenges that lie ahead and a recap of recent successes highlighted Air Force Materiel Command commander Gen. Janet Wolfenbarger's commander's call at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, Jan. 23.
It was the first of what will be several workforce communication engagements for the general. In the coming months, Wolfenbarger will hold a commander's call at each AFMC base.
Speaking to a packed base theater crowd, the general acknowledged that 2013 had many challenges. Top among those challenges were budget issues, sequestration and furloughs, all of which in turn had great impacts on mission, quality of life and force management.
"Our challenge now is to figure out how we can get through this period of down-sizing," she said. "We can do this; we have done it before as an institution. We just have to make the best decisions we can in a non-optimal resource environment. I ask you to bring forward all those good ideas that are out there, because now is the time."
Wolfenbarger also noted that the AFMC mission – through the AFMC workforce – thrived despite the many challenges.
"As I look back, I want to say how proud I am of the progress we made last year, despite the environment," she said. "Operating in the new organizational construct has proven tremendous, even powerful, in terms of how it has enabled more mission-effective and more cost-effective operations for us as a command."
In just one year of operations under the new five-center construct, AFMC avoided or saved $2.7 billion while expertly accomplishing the mission, the general said. That number is only expected to grow.
In looking to 2014 and beyond, Wolfenbarger emphasized the importance of fostering a culture of respect and resiliency, saying everyone has a responsibility to be accountable for himself or herself and to be accountable as a Wingman.
AFMC command chief Chief Master Sgt. Michael Warner, who also spoke at the commander's call, echoed the general's perspective.
"We need to be empowered to protect both ourselves and our coworkers from physical, mental, sexual or negligent misconduct," he said. "We all deserve to be treated with trust, care, dignity and respect."
Other topics the general and chief addressed as key this year included continuing budget concerns and force management issues.
The recently signed Bipartisan Budget Act increased the Air Force topline budget by approximately $6 billion over sequestered fiscal 2014/2015 levels, which Wolfenbarger noted gives the Air Force some — though not complete — relief and also gives the service some budget certainty.
The general also talked about the Consolidated Appropriations Act, signed on Jan. 17, which restores flying hours and weapon system sustainment; protects the "Big-3″ investment programs (i.e., F-35, KC-46, and Long Range Strike Bomber); provides additional Facilities, Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization funds for installations; and notes that no administrative furloughs are planned for fiscal 2014.
In terms of force management, Warner reiterated that the Air Force is taking 25,000 active duty reductions between now and fiscal 2019 – and plans to take most of them early, at the front end.
"We've had drawdowns in the past, but this time we're taking actions that we've never had to take before," he said. "We're going to ask some Airmen who are superstar performers to leave. The key for us is that we have to take this seriously: read the guidance, know your vulnerabilities, know your options, talk with your supervisor.
But take it seriously. Make sure you have all the information you need to make the right decision in a difficult situation."
Wolfenbarger concluded her commander's call by thanking the entire workforce for their many contributions to AFMC's success.
"As we proved last year, we will continue to execute our critical mission despite the environment," she said. "I am so proud of this command. Despite the difficulties and the churn and the uncertainties, you were able to excel at what our Air Force asked of us and demanded of us. And I maintain that you all are up the challenge of doing that again this year and into the future."

Comments about Stag-Handled Knife and Fork with sheath:
I read the first review and hesitated buying this. After a few months, I decided to take a chance and order it. I am glad I did. This is a great knife and fork set. It is very well made. I am not sure what the first reviewer's issues were, but the fork and knife perform beautifully, and the stag horn is not rough. It should not be, it is real antler. But it is nicely finished. It would be nice if there was a spoon as part of the set, but that is no big deal. I am extremely pleased.

Animal Conservation
The Detroit Zoo celebrates and saves wildlife in ways our visitors can see when they visit – such as the breeding programs for threatened and endangered species seen inside the Zoo – and in ways that our visitors can't see – the local field programs the Zoo leads and international field programs the Zoo supports.
Some projects have been underway for more than a decade, others are just getting started. All are the work of dedicated Detroit Zoo staff working with partners from state and federal governments, universities, conservation organizations and other zoos.
Captive breeding of threatened and endangered species in zoos is an important component in the conservation of many species. AZA's Species Survival Plan and Population Management Plan programs help to ensure the long-term maintenance of zoo animal populations to serve as both education and conservation ambassadors to the millions of guests who visit zoos each year and as "safety nets" against the extinction of animals around the world. Some captive breeding programs include the return of zoo-born animals back to the wild, like Wyoming toads and Puerto Rican crested toads. The Detroit Zoo participates in over 100 cooperative programs (Species Survival Plans and Population Management Plans), and staff members at the Detroit Zoo lead a number of programs.
Many important conservation projects happen beyond the Zoo's gates in the meadows, waterways and forests of southeast Michigan and throughout the state. Current Zoo field conservation efforts support more than nine species of local Michigan wildlife, including birds, amphibians, reptiles and even a butterfly. Some of the projects work to rebuild wild populations of endangered and threatened species. Others monitor wildlife populations in unstable habitats, hoping to detect any threatening conditions early enough to prevent the decline of a species. A few help control local overpopulations of native species.

An interrupted aortic arch is a rare heart defect. The aortic arch is part of the major blood vessel that helps move blood from the heart to the rest of the body. With this defect, the aortic arch is interrupted or incomplete. Blood cannot flow through it normally. This makes blood flow to the body less efficient. Children with this defect may also have a hole in the wall between the right and left chambers in the heart.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
A direct cause is not known. The defect develops in the fifth to seventh week of fetal growth. The child is born with the condition.
There is an increased risk for this condition if your child also has
DiGeorge syndrome. This is a chromosomal abnormality.
Symptoms typically appear within the first day or two after birth. Many times, the baby will show symptoms soon after birth. Tell your doctor if you notice the following in your infant or child:
This condition can lead to shock and
congestive heart failure. Your child will need emergency care.
During the exam, the doctor may detect:
These symptoms may be due to other conditions.
The doctor will ask about your child's symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Images may be taken of your child's chest. This can be done with:
Your child's heart activity may be measured. This can be done with
Talk with the doctor about the best treatment plan for your child. Treatment options include:
Medicines, like Prostaglandin E1,
will usually
be given to keep some blood flowing through another blood vessel called the ductus arteriosus. This allows some blood to get around the interruption in the aorta. This is a temporary treatment.
Other medicines may be given to:
Surgery is needed to correct the defect. Surgery aims to form a connection between the two parts of the aortic arch. The hole in the heart between the ventricles is also closed. The ductus arteriosus is then closed.
Your child will need to see a heart specialist regularly.
There is no way to prevent this condition. Getting appropriate prenatal care is always important.

The order applies to virtually all premises and covers nearly every type of building. One section in particular covers sleeping accommodation and covers the common areas of houses in multiple occupation (HMO's) and also blocks of flats
The main rules of the order are that a fire risk assessment must be conducted to identify any possible dangers and risks and this must be conducted by a competent person. The person responsible for meeting the order would be anyone who has control of the premises.
It is an offence if you don't comply with the order.
Further information can be obtained from Staffordshire Fire & Rescue Service by telephoning 08451 221155 or you can download the 'Fire Safety Risk Assessment – sleeping accommodation (opens in a new window) '.
Please note that all domestic premises are still subject to the Housing Act, 2004 and will still be assessed under the Housing Health & Safety Rating System (HHSRS) on Fire Safety for the whole of the premises

From "Tennessee River" to "I Knew You Were Trouble," the Nashville songwriters behind several decades worth of instantly recognizable tunes were honored Sunday night at the Music City Center.
Four new members were welcomed into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the writers responsible for the past year's biggest hits were honored by the Nashville Songwriters Association International.
Alabama frontman Randy Owen and songsmiths Will Jennings, Layng Martine Jr. and Jeffrey Steele are the Hall's 2013 inductees, and all (save Jennings, who was unable to attend) gathered for dinner with hundreds of Music Row colleagues, friends and family members Sunday night to accept the honor — and hear their songs performed by a surprise cast of musical stars.
Speaking to The Tennessean before the ceremony, Owen called his induction "the most special thing that ever happened to me individually." It was an honor that made him think back to Alabama's earliest gigs — and even earlier, when he was first inspired to write a song.
"My daddy taught me to love poetry, and he used to read me poetry. I just loved the way words flowed." He said. "He would also (play) the Hank Williams stuff, and Hank was just so perfect with the way he wrote. It was very inspiring to me, to get a guitar and think, 'You know, I might could do that.'"

I just ordered a 2 ton chain hoist for lifting heavy things out of the back of my truck, I have some strong tree branches to hook it to but I wanted to build something for it instead, something I can back my truck under, so I can place whatever it is I'm lifting where I want it, I was also thinking about making it collapsable so I can take it with me to load and unload things, maybe a pin or bolt can hold some pieces together so it can be taken down easily and transported, here is a terrible sketch i drew on my Android phone, any help or comments are much appreciated!

they are easy to build, but don't expect it to be easily portable. the one I built is technically portable, but its more than a one man job, ****, just adjusting the height is an ordeal.
I built one with reciever tubes on each end of the I beam so I can break it down and store it out of the way, can't find any pictures of it right now or I would attach them."The only source of knowledge is experience." Albert Einstein

2 tons? Wide enough to lift a 2-ton item out of your truck? The limiting factor here is the beam spanning the two sides.
A 100 inch (8 foot, 4 inch) span of wide flange W6-9 (like an I-beam but more stable) will take that load with about 3/16" deflection and peak stress of 18,000 PSI. For ASTM A36 material, this gives a factor of safety of 2 against yield (ASTM A36 material in this section has a minimum yield stress of 36,000 PSI).
This material weighs 9 pounds per foot. That span is a good 75 pounds without the chain hoist.
Now for the A-frame design. Instead of an A, make it a complete triangle. Use the same material. Width is all dependent on height. Diagonal gussets at the cross beam to triangle intersection is also a good idea. For a quick take-down, the design becomes more complex.

I have loaded mine about as much as I wanted to, ha, as I recall we measured it. I had a cobbled up beam and found another one. I raised and spread legs a little, will roll thru 14 door. I like it because although it has a home it can be moved around shop.

I re-did mine a couple of times over the years. Made the wheels from pipe. When I upgraded the beam it was about 20 ft and I cut it to 18, made it a bit stronger and the fit in the building worked out as good as it could, give enough width that could remove something from a truck and carriage it sideways, set on floor, is wide enough that projects sitting under it that doesnt cause crowding.
I had 2 beams, used one I should have used another for and had intended on building a different unit that mounted to building post on one end, this I had already and was portable, I really didnt need 2, its liveable in the way and works.
I built a small one for a Bud, post at wall is for load but hinges on it, the close leg arcs and rotates.

Video of complete robot driving:
Items Needed:
1-Rc Car (new or used, choose one that could easily have a Rc servo fitted in the steering system. We got ours from Radio Shack.)
1-Barracuda wifi robot controller (http://www.robotics-redefined.com, use coupon "instructables" to get 10% off) http://www.robotics-redefined.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=28_30&products_id=62&zenid=c4fd241aa334c50cf189918d38319430
1-Wifi Router ( brand does not matter, we will be using a Linksys)
1-Network Camera (again, any brand will work, we will be using a Linksys)
2-Ethernet Cables
1-5v Regulator for camera (may be different if using a different camera.
2-3 7.2v Rc Batteries (3300mAh or greater recommended)
Misc wire, solder, tape etc.
***NOTE***: As of this writing after testing the wifi robot / spybot, I would encourage the use of a different Network Camera. The Linksys camera worked ok but not great, I have heard good results with the Panasonic line of cameras.
Step 1: Step 1: Hacking The Car
The two red batteries are to power the main motor and the barracuda wifi controller. While the blue 7.2v battery will power the Linksys router, 5v Regulator for the camera, and the steering servo. Three batteries are not needed, but i just find that it makes the wifi robot / spybot more reliable and allows longer run times. If you opt for two batteries the Linksys router can handle 40v, so you will be fine running it straight off of the two packs. The same with the 5v regulator. Te only problem will be the power for the steering servo, so you will either have to add another 5v regulator and run it off of that or just get a higher amperage 5v Regulator and run the servo and the camera off of it. The latter would be easiest.
works for the project
thank you
and to cyrozap=it is really hard....
am i able to put a usb webcam in anyway cause buying an ip camera is very expensive ?
Is it possible to control the car with a usb device, like a joystick ? I have real life applications for this type of device...!
This is pretty awesome. I've wanted to build my own rover since Spirit and Opportunity came online. Roaming the streets, hopping from unsecured wifi AP to unsecured wifi AP, controlled (or commanded) by me on the laptop at home. hehe
please can you tell me specific detailes to make the regulater board plz
and also need to now where i can buy the ip camera because in my country it's above 1200 dollars
thank for helping

5 Tips to Green Your Home From Organic Architect Eric Corey Freed
TIP 1: Wrap Your Home in Insulation – "The More, The Better!"
Proper insulation is probably the most important factor you can control in creating an energy-efficient home. I always say insulation is like chocolate, the more you have, the better! On average, ½ of your home's heating and cooling will escape through walls (35%), windows (25%), floor (15%) and roof (25%). Therefore, the first thing you should do to determine where insulation is needed is to scan your home with a thermal radiometer or infrared scanner in order to detect where your home is leaking heat. (You could hire a professional energy auditor to come out and do an infrared scan of your house and produce pretty rainbow color pictures, like the one above, or you could do it yourself with a cheap spot radiometer like this Black and Decker Thermal Leak Detector).

Hi Jill,
This is Cat from FM! I just started reading this book called "Cradle to Cradle," and thought of your site. I think it would be an interesting read for you. We are really accustomed to thinking of industry and the environment at odds at each other, where everything is built and produced based on a cradle-to-grave model, but these guys write about how architecture and products can be designed from the outset that after their useful lives, they can be used for something new. Instead of applying environmental solutions in isolation and tacking new technology onto the same old model when building, and trying very hard to "not be bad to the environment," the authors explore ways that something can be built with completely positive intentions in mind.

Great article Eric. I agree with the insulation aspect, especially in the colder climates of the world. We blow recycled newspaper insulation in the exterior walls of our investment properties and have cut the energy bills in half instantly on the heating side. And it also allows the house to stay cool in the summer.

My house has a HUGE magnolia tree to the west. It definitely shades the house but it also cuts way down on natural light from the windows.
I put in two sun tunnels. One in the living room and one in the kitchen. I love them! Makes a huge difference in both rooms.

Good suggestion on the Black & Decker Thermal leak detector. I bought one at Lowes, found it very useful. Of course I'd like an infra-red camera but they're expensive. The downside is once you know where the problems are you have to do something about it. Insulation has failed for some reason in several exterior walls, not sure what to do about it. Don't want to tear everything down to the studs. Here's a review of the Black & Decker tool: http://bit.ly/gKaEwu

YOU FORGOT STEP #1 An Energy Audit
January 27, 2011 at 2:57 pm
I think your comment is unfair. The point of this article was to convey helpful pointers for homeowners concisely in an easy-to-read article. This is not a 100 page manual, and we cannot include every single possible issue that a homeowner needs to know about insulation. It is a good idea to get a professional audit, and that is why we suggest that to readers in the paragraph called 'Types of insulation'. I think saying 'Boo' and claiming we didn't consult experts is hugely unfair. I can't really think of more of an expert on greenbuilding than Eric Corey Freed. To expect that everything in the universe about insulation would be included in the short few paragraphis in this post is an unrealistic expectation. Even as is the article is 7 pages long!
January 27, 2011 at 1:33 pm
Step one leaves out plenty of critical information on air sealing, condensation issues, and climate-specific considerations (cellulose is a liability in very moist climates.) Just adding insulation to your home can actually have detrimental effects and it's very important to have a professional audit, which may be offered free or cheap via your local utility. This article is great from an architect's perspective! Boo, inabitat, for publishing something with such a clear lack of information from experts in the field. I'm a huge fan and expect better from you.

Greengrid roofs are awesome and a lot of progressive cities offer tax incentives for installing them that help defer cost.
January 26, 2011 at 12:14 pm
Just got a leak detector; looking forward to trying it out!
January 25, 2011 at 1:48 pm
You've got to be careful when adding sprayfoam insulation to the walls of an existing home. It might create moisture traps, which create problems of their own. Namely mold and rot.
Besides, biobased sprayfoam is not as green as it is made out to be: think about all the farmland that is being taken away from food production to create a foam product! And how would you recycle that stuff at the end of the home's lifecycle?
January 25, 2011 at 11:33 am
I was expecting five things and got maybe forty- thats an exhaustive list.
January 25, 2011 at 11:03 am
I live in an apartment now, so I can only use a few of these tips, BUT I'm going to save the others for my future green dream home!

Vonn makes it three from three in Lake Louise, Fenninger second
Lindsey Vonn made it a clean sweep of the three races in Lake Louise with victory in the Super G race that wrapped up the racing this weekend. It was the perfect tonic for the American after what has been a self admitted trying time for her. Having completed a hat trick in Haus in 2009 once before, Vonn ""couldn't be happier, I didn't really expecting while coming here. It was a tough week and this is exactly what I needed. A hat-trick is a rare thing to do." Anna Fenninger made it a double success on the podium for the HEAD World Cup Rebels by taking second place.
The margin of victory may not have been as emphatic as in the Downhill races but Vonn felt like she had "skied better the previous days but a win is a win." Vonn is a strong character when has her race skis one and never gives up: "I didn't feel all that strong on top, but really attacked at the bottom and ended up having an amazing day." It is this determination that has seen her now have 45 World Cup wins in her career.
"When I was younger, if you would have asked me if I would have had this many wins, I would have said you were crazy," said Vonn. "This is far beyond what I expected to do in my career, I feel extremely lucky to do what I love to do every day."
After the recent health issues, Anna Fenninger made sure that she was on the podium for the first time this season. "It was a really good run, especially in the steep section," Fenninger said "I had some really good speed. I'm very happy with my run, it was perfect. While Lindsey was behind in the steep section, for a moment I though maybe I could beat her, but in the flats she is so strong and she is the best at the moment so she deserved to win." To be less than two tenths behind Vonn when she is in this kind of form; is impressive.
With two places taken on the podium, Maria Hoefl-Riesch placed 5th and Lizzi Goergl took eighth to make it four racers in the top eight finishers.
Next up it is off home for Lindsey Vonn and the World Cup tour as they make a rescheduled trip to Beaver Creek: "I am so excited to go to Beaver Creek, it's going to be such an awesome race, to finally be able to race at home, five minute from where I live and to have the support of my friends and family there is going to be amazing," said Vonn.
1. Lindsey Vonn (USA) HEAD
2. Anna Fenninger (AUT) HEAD
3. Julia Mancuso (USA)
