I bought these jeans almost two years ago and they still look perfect. These are the most perfect jeans ever, at least for me. They're so comfortable, flattering and I didn't even have to hem them. I'm only 5 feet tall and about 107 pounds. I got them in a 24 and they can get a bit loose after a few wears. I ordered a size 23 online and they also fit really well. I wear the 24s for casual day-to-day wear and break out the size 23 when I want something a bit more formal looking. I have three pairs of these, plus the same style in blue jeans. I don't love the blue pair to be honest. I got a size 23 and they just don't have that tapered, fitted look that I love. But I'm not much of a blue jean person anyway so it's fine. If you're petite and wear a lot of oversized tops, get these now.

This is the second time I have bought this pair of jeans. I bought this second pair after having the first pair for three years. I bought the same size in this and the dark blue. The dark blue fit perfect, but the black just fit terribly. I am so disappointed in the fit. What changed over the years. I was especially made that they dont fit the same as the blue skinnys I got.

Too skinny at ankle
By jz
from PA
About Me Classic
Comments about 7 For All Mankind The Skinny in Clean Black:
The black jeans fit beautifully and are quite flattering once they are on. The ankles are so tight that I have a very difficult time putting them on and to take them off, I have to turn them inside out over my feet and pull. And I do not have big feet (7-1/2). I don't wear the jeans because they are so narrow (only at the ankle) and I don't feel like dealing with them. I have the same jeans in white and they are perfect!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Attracts Too Much Lint
By Back to looking for black
from Omaha, NE
I have The Skinny's in white and denim and they are my favorite jeans. Unfortunaly, I am very particular about excess lint on black jeans and am having a very hard time finding a quality pair that does not attact lint. The Skinny in black was covered in lint on the first day from my sweater, chair, coat, and anything else. I have no time to carry a lint brush around 24/7.

Merchant response: Hi Mary,We are so sorry that the black jeans did not fit. Sometimes the fabric makeup changes, which would account for the reason that they did not fit the same as your last pair. The fabric in the black jeans also may be a different makeup that the blue jeans you order. Please let us know if we can assist you in an exchange. We are more than happy to help!
not the comfiest pair of pants....
By mary

About Me Bargain Shopper, Casual, Eclectic, Student
my favorite style of 7's is the roxanne, however the store didn't have any black roxannes available. the saleswoman suggested 'the skinny' pair and they fit nice, although I expected the waist to be a bit more comfortable- like my roxannes are. it's a tiny bit more high waisted and a little snug. I'm 5'1 and 105 lbs so pudginess isn't a factor. the 26 in the roxannes are actually a little loose around the waist (i've got more hips and butt than a waist/stomach) where as the 26 in 'the skinny' fit pretttyyy snug. I still look great in these pants, although I wish the waist were slightly more comfortable.
I would buy this product again!

About Me Eclectic, Trendy
After reading the reviews on here, I bought these pants and loooove them. They look great on me. They do stretch out, but not an unbearable amount. I'm usually a 26 or 27 (5'3"), I went with the 26 and they're great. They're so comfortable, not 'hard' like other jeans. You can break 'em in quite easily. I highly recommend!

NYC Campus Life
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world".
-Nelson Mandela
When I first joined the Nyack family in the winter of 2005, I was already convinced that at Nyack College and Alliance Theological Seminary the hearts and minds of men and women would be molded and shaped to prepare them for becoming "world changers." That was the vision of our founder A.B. Simpson back in 1882 and it remains to this present day.
Fast forward….we are in a new season of a dream come true—"the Miracle in Manhattan." The relocation of our Manhattan campus from Broadway to Battery Park and the story behind the new facility are nothing short of miraculous.
As I reflect on where we have been and where God has brought us, I am reminded of the lives that are being impacted—not just our students—but the people they encounter. It is an honor to be involved in the higher education experience and the journey that will play a part of empowering our students for service as the next generation of "world changers."
My earnest desire is to serve our students holistically by offering every opportunity for growth through a first-rate academic experience as well as through extra-curricular activities, worship experiences, missional projects, athletics, and the arts. Equipped with these resources, I am confident that the changes that take place in them will be a part of the changes that take place in the world as they advance God's kingdom.
Rev. Charles Hammond
Associate Dean

Comments about WorkStation Bluetooth Keyboard for iPad/iPhone:
I use this product with my iPad and it is very nice not to have to type using the touch screen. Overall the product is great, just with it had some kind of case to protect it. (I am a college student that has a book bag full of heavy books and binders that I feel would easily smash it so I am extra careful where I put it). Its a smaller keyboard (length wise) than your typical laptop or desktop keyboard so that takes some time to get used to.
I love the keyboard and I'm glad I got it.

Karen Grigsby Bates
Karen Grigsby Bates is the Los Angeles-based correspondent for NPR News. Bates contributed commentaries to All Things Considered for about 10 years before she joined NPR in 2002 as the first correspondent and alternate host for The Tavis Smiley Show. In addition to general reporting and substitute hosting, she increased the show's coverage of international issues and its cultural coverage, especially in the field of literature and the arts.
In early 2003, Bates joined NPR's former midday news program Day to Day. She has reported on politics (California's precedent-making gubernatorial recall, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's re-election campaign and the high-profile mayoral campaign of Los Angeles' Antonio Villaraigosa), media, and breaking news (the Abu Ghrarib scandal, the 2004 tsunami in Southeast Asia and the execution of Stanley "Tookie" Williams).
Bates' passion for food and things culinary has served her well: she's spent time with award-winning food critic Alan Richman and chef-entrepreneur Emeril Lagasse.
One of Bates' proudest contributions is making books and authors a high-profile part of NPR's coverage. "NPR listeners read a lot, and many of them share the same passion for books that I do, so this isn't work, it's a pleasure." She's had conversations with such writers as Walter Mosley, Joan Didion and Kazuo Ishiguru. Her bi-annual book lists (which are archived on the web) are listener favorites.
Before coming to NPR, Bates was a news reporter for People magazine. She was a contributing columnist to the Op Ed pages of the Los Angeles Times for ten years. Her work has appeared in Time, The New York Times, the Washington Post, Essence and Vogue. And she's been a guest on several news shows such as ABC's Nightline and the CBS Evening News.
In her non-NPR life, Bates is the author of Plain Brown Wrapper and Chosen People, mysteries featuring reporter-sleuth Alex Powell. She is co-author, with Karen E. Hudson, of Basic Black: Home Training for Modern Times, a best-selling etiquette book now in its second edition. Her work also appears in several writers' anthologies.
Bates holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Wellesley College. Additionally she studied at the University of Ghana and completed the executive management program at Yale University's School of Organization and Management.

Solar storms may be a problem of the past due to prevention in the future. For the first time ever, scientist are able to see a 360-degree panorama view of the sun! NASA released these images in early February, recorded from the Solar Dynamic Observatory with those from NASA's twin STEREO spacecraft. Scientists are now embarking on an 8-year exploration, primarily to look at the rotating sun's far side. The goal is to be able to better predict solar storms.
A solar storm is an electrified gas cloud that erupts from the surface of the sun into space, which can damage satellites and disrupt communication systems on earth. Scientists hope that being able to predict the future of solar storms will help them find a way to prevent them. For the first time ever, the video below allows us to watch solar activity in its full 3-D dimensional glory. The video shows us a 360-degree panorama view of the sun and then zooms in on a solar eruption.

Goals: This was the second Soviet attempt to bring lunar soil back to Earth. Since the Soviet Union launched Luna 15 three days before the announced launch date of Apollo 11, it appears likely that the Soviets hoped to return lunar samples to Earth just before the American astronauts could do so. The spacecraft was also said to be capable of collecting information about the lunar environment, analyzing the chemical composition of lunar rocks, and taking pictures of the lunar surface.
Accomplishments: Luna 15 reached lunar orbit and conducted numerous communications sessions with Earth, during which it may have transmitted data about the lunar space environment. But its primary goal ended in failure when contact was lost on the same day that U.S. astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first people to set foot on the Moon. It is thought that Luna 15 probably crashed into a mountain while descending to the lunar surface.

A home blood pressure test allows you to keep track of your
blood pressure at home. Blood pressure is a measure of
the force of blood inside an artery.
Most people use an automatic device to measure blood pressure at home. This device works by inflating a cuff around the upper arm to temporarily stop the flow of blood in an artery. As air is slowly released from the cuff, the device records the pressure at which blood begins to flow again.
pressure is recorded as two measurements.
These two pressures are expressed in millimeters of mercury
(mm Hg) because the original devices that measured blood pressure used a column
of mercury. Blood pressure measurements are recorded as systolic/diastolic (say
"systolic over diastolic"). For example, if your systolic pressure is 120 mm Hg
and your diastolic pressure is 80 mm Hg, your blood pressure is recorded as
120/80 (say "120 over 80").
Automatic monitors, also called electronic or digital monitors, are battery-operated monitors that use a microphone to
detect blood pulsing in the artery. The cuff, which is wrapped around your upper arm, automatically inflates and deflates when you press the start button.
The type of blood pressure
monitor typically found in supermarkets, pharmacies, and shopping malls is an
automatic device.
Blood pressure monitors that measure your blood pressure in
your finger or your wrist are not usually accurate and are not
Manual models are
similar to those that your doctor might use to take your blood pressure. Called
a sphygmomanometer, these devices usually include an arm cuff, a squeeze bulb
to inflate the cuff, a
or microphone, and a gauge to measure the
blood pressure.
A blood pressure measurement is taken by
temporarily stopping the flow of blood in an artery (usually by inflating a
cuff around the upper arm) and placing the stethoscope on the skin over the artery. You listen for the sound of the blood
beginning to flow through the artery again as air is released from the
Blood pressure is displayed on a circular dial
with a needle. As the pressure in the cuff rises, the needle moves clockwise on
the dial. As the cuff pressure falls, the needle moves counterclockwise.
As the cuff pressure falls, the reading on the gauge when blood flow is
first heard is the systolic pressure. The reading on the gauge when blood flow can no longer
be heard is the diastolic pressure.
An ambulatory blood pressure monitor is a small device that is worn throughout the day, usually
for 24 or 48 hours. The device takes your blood pressure automatically.
Your doctor might recommend this monitor if he or she thinks you have
white-coat (or office) hypertension
or if other methods do not give consistent results.
Health Tools help you make wise health decisions or take action to improve your health.
Home blood pressure monitoring
measures your blood pressure at different times and in different places (such
as at home and at work) during the day. It may be done to:
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is often used
if there is a big difference between the blood pressure readings you get at
home and your readings in your doctor's office.
Remember that blood pressure readings
vary throughout the day. They usually are highest in the morning after you wake
up and move around. They decrease throughout the day and
are lowest in the evening.
If you have an ambulatory blood pressure monitor, you do not need to do anything to prepare. The monitor will automatically take your blood pressure while you do your normal daily activities.
When you buy a blood pressure monitor, be sure to buy the correct size. The size of the
blood pressure cuff
and where you place the cuff on your arm can change your
blood pressure readings. If the cuff is
too small
too large
, the measurements will not be accurate. Hospital and medical supply
stores generally carry many cuff sizes and can help make sure that your cuff
fits you.
Take your new monitor to your doctor's office to make sure it is working
right. Have your health professional take your blood pressure and then compare
that result with your own device. Ask your health professional to watch you use
your monitor to make sure that you are using it correctly. It is a good idea to
have your monitor checked every year.
Check your blood pressure cuff
frequently to see that the rubber tubing, bulb, valves, and cuff are in good
condition. Even a small hole or crack in the tubing can lead to inaccurate
Your blood pressure in your right arm may
be higher or lower than the blood pressure in your left arm. For this reason,
try to use the same arm for every reading.
Ask your doctor if you should take your
blood pressure at the same time of day each time you take it, or if you should
take your blood pressure at different times of the day. Blood pressure readings rise
and fall at different times during the day. They are usually highest in the
morning and lowest in the evening.
At first it is a good
idea to take your blood pressure 3 times in a row, 5 or 10 minutes apart. As
you get more comfortable taking your own blood pressure, you will only need to
measure it once or twice each time.
Ask your doctor how often you should take your blood pressure. Your doctor may ask you to check your blood pressure more often if
your blood pressure is not well-controlled or if you are taking different
medicines or changing doses of a medicine.
instructions for using blood pressure monitors vary depending upon the type of
blood pressure monitor you choose. Here are some general guidelines:
Record your blood pressure numbers with the date and time. You might use a log book or a spreadsheet on your computer. Your monitor might have a feature that will record your numbers for you. Some monitors can transfer this information to
your computer.
record your daily activities, such as the time you take medicine or if you feel
upset or feel stressed. Your records may help explain changes in your blood
pressure readings and help your doctor adjust your medicines.
Follow the instructions for your monitor. When you press the start button, the cuff will inflate automatically. The cuff will then deflate and the numbers on the screen will begin to drop. When the measurement is complete, your monitor displays your blood pressure and pulse rate.
A large artery (called the brachial artery) is located slightly
above the inside of your elbow. You can check its location by feeling for a
pulse in the artery with the fingers of your other hand.
If you
are using a stethoscope, place the earpieces in your ears and the bell of the
stethoscope over the artery, just below the cuff. The stethoscope should not
rub on the cuff or your clothing, since this may cause noises that can make
your pulse hard to hear. If you are using a cuff with a built-in stethoscope
bell, be sure the part of the cuff with the stethoscope is positioned just over
the artery. The accuracy of a blood pressure recording depends on the correct
positioning of the stethoscope over the artery. You may want to have another
person who can use a stethoscope properly help you take your blood pressure.
Close the valve on the rubber inflating bulb. Squeeze the bulb
rapidly with your opposite hand to inflate the cuff until the dial or column of
mercury reads about 30 mm Hg higher than your usual
systolic pressure. (If you don't know your usual
pressure, inflate the cuff to 210 mm Hg or until the pulse at your wrist
disappears.) The pressure in the cuff will stop all blood flow within the
artery temporarily.
Now open the pressure valve just slightly by
twisting or pressing the valve on the bulb. The pressure should fall slowly at
about 2 to 3 mm Hg per second. Some blood pressure devices have a valve that
automatically controls this rate. As you watch the pressure slowly fall, note
the level on the dial at which you first start to hear a pulsing or tapping sound through the stethoscope. The sound is caused by
the blood starting to move through the closed artery. This is your
systolic blood pressure. If you have trouble hearing the
start of your pulse through the stethoscope, you can check your systolic blood
pressure by noting the level on the dial when you are able to feel the pulse at
your wrist once again.
Continue letting the air out slowly. The
sounds will become muffled and will finally disappear. Note the pressure
when the sounds completely disappear. This is your
diastolic blood pressure. Finally, let out all the
remaining air to relieve the pressure on your arm.
You may feel some discomfort when the
blood pressure cuff inflates, squeezing your arm.

In general, the lower your blood pressure, the better. For example, a blood pressure reading of less than 90/60 is healthy as long as you feel okay. But if you have low blood pressure and feel lightheaded, faint, or
like you may vomit, talk to your doctor.
Blood pressure normally goes up and down from day to day
and even from moment to moment. Blood pressure tends to be higher in the morning and
lower at night. Stress, smoking, eating, exercise, cold, pain, noise,
medicines, and even talking can affect it. A single high reading does not mean
you have
high blood pressure, and a single
normal reading does not necessarily mean you do not have high blood pressure.
The average of several repeated measurements throughout the day is more
accurate than a single reading.
blood pressure may only be high when you go to your doctor's office. This is
white-coat (or office) hypertension
and may be caused
by stress about seeing your doctor. When you regularly check your blood
pressure at home, you may find that your blood pressure is lower when you are
not at the doctor's office.
Do not adjust your blood pressure
medicines based on home blood pressure readings unless your doctor tells you

Rhodes is certainly a top 5 corner in this class. His hips and transition are both spectacular for a corner that size. He's a guy that FSU can leave out on island in man coverage against the best receivers in college football and trust that he's going to hold up.
It wouldn't surprise if he's in the mix to be the first CB selected.

Rhodes is a good player that I've enjoyed watching but I think at some point there could be a harsh reality moment in store for him where he's forced to switch to safety. But at least with him it will feel like a positive transition whereas David Amerson is being chased into that position with an angry mob of dogs, torches and pitch forks at his back. Amerson is making the kind of negative transition that makes me wonder if I wasn't just wrong period and he's really not a good football player at all at the next level, regardless of position. But Rhodes I wouldn't see it quite that way.

as for trufant and hawthorne i think it's possible they both get to late round 2...depends on how they run etc...i know one thing i like hawthornes feet in his pedal i think that kids got really good feet and he stays pretty low in his pedal...i really like him...tough for me who i'd take if i had the choice b/t them both...i like trufant a lot in press man and heck he had a very good game tape in off coverages last friday also...
hoops scoops 2012 season ..."in 2014 ryan tannehill etches his name in stone amongst the games elite qbs"..."ryan tannehill and andrew luck will carry the afc for the next decade plus the way peyton manning and tom brady have this last decade plus"
for the love of god get a real freaking mike already!!!
Every year it's the same story. The corners that will rise will be the ones with elite speed and movement skills and the corners that will fall will be the ones that don't have that. I happen to think Desmond Trufant has those things so I do think he'll rise.
Rhodes would have to run something above 4.55 for me to consider him anything other than a cornerback. He has too much fluidity in his hips and plays press coverage too well to be anything but an asset in an aggressive scheme. Amerson is simply too stiff to play corner in the NFL and has no recovery speed. However, he can tackle.... and he does have terrific ball skills when he can keep the action in front of him. That saves him in my estimation. Keeping the action in front of him is the problem.
Will Davis is a really good corner for Utah St. He had great battle with Quinton Patton about a week or so ago. I scored it a draw.
issue i have with rhodes at safety is he doesn't strike me as a guy that likes contact...he doesn't seem to be a guy rallying to the ball or piling on all that much either...i think he plays a little soft to transition to safety...i'd be concerned there...heck i'd rather just go another direction all together at db period
Johnthan Banks has been burned more than any CB in the country this month. Donte Moncrief was torching him so bad that they had to take Banks off of him and put somebody else on him... which didn't help. He torched Darius Slay too. All this after getting burned by Alabama and LSU prior.
If the Dolphins are willing to toss another redshirt out to another talented but injured football player (a la Jonas Gray) then D.J. Hayden would be a good guy to keep around. You could sign him as a UDFA and help rehab him, and if he decides he wants to play football again you could help him accomplish that.
He was the C-USA Newcomer of the Year last year when he forced something like 5 fumbles and broke up 11 passes, intercepting 2 of them and returning 1 for a touchdown. He also had 8.0 TFLs and 66 tackles in what was a monstrous season. Then this year 2011 he only played in 9 games but racked up 4 interceptions and 2 more touchdowns (171 yards of INT return yardage), 8 PBUs, another forced fumble and 61 tackles.
During a collision in practice he tore his inferior vena cava, the large vein that brings blood from the lower half of the body to the heart. The injury is 95% fatal when it happens in the field, but somehow he pulled through and they got him patched up. It should take him about a year to recover. His mom doesn't want him back on a football field but she's anticipating that she'll lose that argument. You can file this one in the Mark Herzlich folder...but I'd still take the chance. At 6'0" and 190 lbs he looks fast enough to me.

Ah ah what can i do ?
I don't know. Eating oignon i can do that.
Doing some catch in Paris, Under the Eiffel Tower, why not :)
But actually i'm not a crazy person. But i'm definitely looking forward BB10 devices.
I hope BB10 will be a success !
I live in Paris, France and i saw less and less blackberries in the metro while i was seeing quite a lot of BlackBerry curve juste a year before.
I used to have a bold 9000 then a Torch 9800 but i sold both and got a HTC ONE X instead. If RIM make things right maybe i will come back to their side.
If you release these apps i will get a BlackBerry BB10 on Day One :
Instagram / LastFM radio or scrobbler / a good spotify / deezer player / draw something / angry birds / SONG POP / ...
I miss my BlackBerry keyboard and user interface.
I'm not missing the internet browser at all though.

"Graduating with degrees in both Spanish and Peace and Global studies has prepared me well for a global career track. During my first year at Le Moyne I knew that I wanted to pursue the Spanish language in some capacity, but it was not until I spent a semester studying in Spain that I realized the true worth of a second language. Currently, as Program Coordinator for Creighton University's Institute for Latin American Concern (ILAC), Spanish plays an integral role in my job. I live and work in the Dominican Republic, coordinating and facilitating medical missions and service immersion experiences that aide the rural poor. I would not be in this rewarding position if it were not for the hard-working, dedicated and inspirational Spanish professors at Le Moyne." Best part of being a Dolphin? "Forming life-long friendships with my peers and professors." Ashley M. Casey, Class of 2012 Major: Communications and Spanish/ Gender & Women's Studies Ashley currently lives in Manlius, New York. She has worked as a journalist for the Scotsman Media Group since January 2013. Her work has appeared in the Finger Lakes Vacationer, Today's CNY Woman and The Valley News. "From the first time I visited, I could feel a great sense of community at Le Moyne. It's like a big family — ask any alum! I felt especially at home in the Spanish department, where I forged connections with both my professors and my fellow students. Majoring in Spanish taught me to think about the world more critically and with more empathy for others." Best part of being a Dolphin? "The friendships I have made at Le Moyne!" Katherine Panning, Class of 2009 Major: English/ Spanish, French and Irish Katherine currently lives in Buffalo, New York. After Le Moyne, she pursued two advanced degrees: a Master in Library and Information Studies from SUNY Buffalo and a Master in English from the University of Connecticut. "I love how small Le Moyne is because each student can be involved in any field, pursue any interest. Because of Le Moyne's academic offerings and flexibility, I was able to study both Spanish and French, along with completing a summer language-immersion program in Ireland to learn Irish Gaelic. I was able to become close with several of the Foreign Languages and Literature faculty, taking multiple courses with them; this helped my learning because they knew how I learned and helped me progress through the upper-level courses. Some of my closest friends studied the same multiple languages, and others participated in the summer language-immersion programs in Italy at the same time I was in Ireland. That's an amazing connection to have - we have years of discovery, opportunity, introspection, and fun we shared together." Best part of being a Dolphin? "Pride. I'm proud of my time in Central NY, at a small, Jesuit school, at a college whose mascot is a dolphin, and being able to share that with my sisters and my good friends."

These buttery shortbread cookies from Cooperstown Cookie Company hit a home run. Photo courtesy Cooperston Cookie Company.

Cooperstown Cookie Company
Classic Baseball Shortbread
CAPSULE REPORT: Delicious shortbread cookies for gifts, party favors, or just for the sheer enjoyment of a delicious piece of shortbread. To produce its products, the company works with two organizations that support the disadvantaged: one helps adults and children with Down syndrome and the other enhances the quality of life for people with disabilities and other barriers to employment.
We don't even follow baseball, but we were delighted to receive a tin of these captivating Classic Baseball Shortbread cookies. Imagine how happy they'll make true sports fans!
The rich, traditional shortbread cookies in the regulation size and shape of baseballs (3" diameter) are made by hand and baked in small batches, just outside of the world baseball capital of Cooperstown, New York. Fresh, light and fragrant with butter, they melt in your mouth. Unlike some shortbreads-on-the-shelf that can be a bit al dente, you can give a tin of these to Grandpa or the tween with braces without worrying about damage to the dental work.
Each tin includes a tricky baseball trivia question. This gift will make the day of a baseball nut; and anyone who loves good shortbread will be thankful that proprietor Pati Drumm Grady put her family shortbread recipe to such good use. The cookies are all natural with no preservatives or additives—just flour, butter, sugar, pure vanilla extract and salt.
You can enjoy your shortbread in:
While Chocolate Chip may sound the most appealing, our votes go to Classic and Lemon (we didn't taste the Almond)—and lots of both, please!
Nobody will be seeking any peanuts and Crackerjack® when Cooperstown Baseball Shortbread is within arm's reach. Order the large size tins for your own enjoyment—they disappear quickly! A nice option are the Bunts, 1-3/4" diameter cookies that are just big enough to provide a satisfactory taste—as a snack, with a beverage or with a dish of ice cream.

Shipping additional. Prices are verified at publication but are subject to change.
A special note: Cooperstown Shortbread Cookies are baked at Pathfinder Village in nearby Edmeston, NY, a residential facility for children and adults who have Down syndrome. Cooperstown Cookie Company shares a portion of the profits with Pathfinder Village, a community dedicated to education, personal growth, research and counseling. The Company is proud of its association with Pathfinder Village and believes passionately in its mission: it is mentioned on every box of cookies. Human Technologies Corporation packages and mails the cookie orders. Human Technologies Corporation is a company of diverse businesses committed to enhancing the quality of life for people with disabilities and others who have barriers to employment.

Frederick John Elgersma (born July 9, 1957), known by the stage name Fred Eaglesmith, is a Canadian alternative country singer-songwriter, one of nine children raised by a farming family in rural Southern Ontario. As a teenager Eaglesmith hopped a freight train out to Western Canada, and began writing songs and performing. He is known for writing songs about machines or vehicles, including songs about trains, tractors, trucks, cars, and engines. Rural life, dogs, guns, drinking and farming/ranching are other common themes. Many of his songs are about failing farms and small businesses. Down and out characters dealing with loss of love or livelihood, and quirky rural folk also populate his songs. His songwriting uses many of the techniques of short story writing, including unreliable narrators, surprise endings, and plot twists. Eaglesmith's band is known both as The Flying Squirrels or The Flathead Noodlers, switching the name to represent different styles of music. The Flathead Noodlers play bluegrass, while the Flying Squirrels play more folk and rock. An early incarnation of the band was known as The Smokin' Losers. A typical Fred Eaglesmith show includes his music set between several lengthy between-song comic monologues by Eaglesmith. Topics in the past have included stories about crossing the U.S./Canada border, Newfoundlanders, and some friends from an Indian reserve. His fans are known as "Fredheads", a nod to deadheads, who followed The Grateful Dead. He is known to tour extensivley throughout Canada and the U.S.

Hey fellow welders I have a Question ;
I have been using C-25 For quite some time now and my welding supplier
suggested that I use C-15.I tried it for a while,In the flat pos it worked very well, In the Horiz pos it did okay a little to much under cut on the last pass,
Verti pos way to much under cut and it looks like after welding I pinched the weld together in the middle and it did not flow into the sides very well,
Over head pos Stringers worked best that I found. AnywayI did all positions In about 30min I didn't have a lot of time to get to know this gas.
My question is: did I give this gas a fair try? What gas are you using?
And have you used this gas?

I normally use C-25 for GMAW short circuit welding. I also have a big bottle of Ar that I use for GTAW that I have mixed with the C-25 in a 60/40 proportion to produce what amounts to 90% Ar/10% CO2 at the GMAW gun. That is, if I need 35 cfh of this mix to do a particular spay arc job, I set the Ar at 21 cfh and the C-25 at 14 cfh. With this mix I have done spray arc transfer at higher voltages/amperages on 1/4" or greater stock in the flat or horiz. position. I have read guidelines published by Lincoln for spray arc that say an Ar/CO2 mix with 18% or less of CO2 will permit spray arc, but I have never tried spray arc with that much CO2, so I wouldn't know from experience. The Miller GMAW guide book says 8% to a max of 10% CO2 is preferred for spray arc.
The Miller book also says that a 92% Ar/8 % CO2 mix serves as a dual purpose mix usable for short circuit GMAW on thinner material and for spray arc GMAW on thicker materials.
Hope this helps a bit.

The overwhelming majority of pesticides used on U.S. farms do not show up on our food. And yet,
How is it that these two pesticides are found in over 90% of Americans? Through the food we eat.
Chlorpyrifos remains one of the most widely used pesticides in U.S. agriculture. DDT is a long-lasting persistent organic pollutant (POP) that bioaccumulates up the food chain, and can be found in most butter and milk. These are but two of the dozens of pesticides found on our food, even after washing.
We want to believe that government agencies are protecting us & our food supply—but they are not. They don't have the right tools for the job.
We all want to believe that government agencies are protecting us and our food supply from chemical contaminants — but they are not. They do not have the regulatory framework to do so. In contrast to Europe's health-protective precautionary approach, U.S. policy treats chemicals as "innocent until proven guilty"— and it can take decades to reach a guilty verdict. And since chemicals are regulated one at a time, our rules fail to account for combined, cumulative or tragically timed effects.1
The good news is that we don't need pesticides to grow our own food, or to feed the world. Organic farmers in the U.S. produced more than $20 billion worth of pesticide-free food in 2007, and at a 20% annual growth rate, organics are the fastest growing agricultural sector. We need a better Farm Bill to support this kind of farming in the U.S., and to make this food affordable for everyone.
Q: How much pesticide exposure is too much?
A: Depends on the pesticide. Depends on the person. Depends on the timing and type of exposure.
The question is complicated, so we built a "decoder ring" for your food to help you understand the risks, according to the health issues that are of most concern to you: cancer, developmental and reproductive toxicity, neurotoxity or hormone disruption. Our website WhatsOnMyFood.org links pesticide food residue data from the USDA with toxicological profiles for each chemical, making this information easily searchable. Some examples of what you'll find:
Children's developing brains and bodies make them especially vulnerable to pesticide residues found on food. Pound for pound, they drink 2.5 times more water and eat 3-4 times more food. Studies have found that children with high pesticide exposures in the womb are at increased risk of being born with birth defects. They also face developmental delays and are more likely to suffer from ADHD and autism spectrum disorders.
Within days of switching to organic fruits & vegetables, many pesticides clear from children's bodies.
Fortunately, analysis has shown that within days of switching schoolchildren's diets from conventional to one with organic fruits and vegetables, many pesticide metabolites become undetectable in urine. According to The Organic Center, the most rigorous science tells us that organically grown produce is more nutritious than conventionally grown produce.
Unfortunately, washing food (while important) is unlikely to be of much help — before testing, USDA washed & peeled their samples just as you would. And some pesticides, like imidacloprid are "systemic," meaning they are taken up by a plant's roots and distributed throughout the plant, so no amount of washing will remove them. This class of pesticides has been on the rise for the last 15 years, and now represents a new, unstudied and unregulated avenue of risk.
Systemic pesticides play a major role in dietary risk exposure in the U.S. According to one analysis, systemic insectides account for about 60% of dietary risk in domestic crops.
Included in this class of pesticides are genetically engineered crops like Bt corn, which express an endotoxin that is likewise impossible to wash off. The average ear of U.S.-grown corn likely has 3 different systemic insecticides coursing through its tissue. Corn is in many ways the backbone of the U.S. food system as cattlefeed, high-fructose corn syrup, and a variety of other processed food products.
Eating and buying organic is an important way to protect your family's health and to support sound farming close to home. For many, it is also — and in a deeper way — a matter of justice and environmental sustainability for future generations and people and places far away.
Farmworkers, their families, and rural communities carry the heaviest burden of chemically dependant farming systems. Biodiversity, wildlife, water quality, and the stability of our climate also suffer. And it is a fact of life that most people either cannot afford, or cannot access organic food — much as farmworkers cannot choose to work only in pesticide-free fields.
Pesticide residues on food are how most people come to the problem of pesticides — as consumers. In our daily lives, this marketplace choice is how we are asked to think about food. At PAN, we think it is important to respond to these concerns, connect some dots, and then come together to push for deeper, more systemic change.
Because everybody deserves the right to healthy food and a safe workplace.

Molly Hatchet is an American southern rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1975. They are widely known for their hit song "Flirtin'' with Disaster" from the album of the same title. The band, founded by Dave Hlubek and Steve Holland, took its name from a prostitute who allegedly mutilated and decapitated her clients. Most of Molly Hatchet album covers feature eye-catching heroic fantasy inspired art, some of which were painted by renowned artists, like Frank Frazetta and Boris Vallejo.

What is palliative care? A: Palliative care is the medical specialty focusing on preventing or easing pain, stress and suffering during an illness. It is holistic in its approach, in that it addresses the entire person. So, we deal with the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of patients and their families.
How is palliative care coordinated with a patient's doctor? A: Palliative care collaborates with the primary care physician to help patients and families coordinate treatment for an illness, with the goal of achieving the best possible quality of life. Care is usually by referral. Palliative care is beneficial at any stage of an illness, starting from diagnosis. It complements treatments focused on curing a patient and it is appropriate when a cure is not possible. This applies not only to cancer treatment, but also many other illnesses, such as cardiac and pulmonary disease, dementia and other neurologic diseases, arthritis, diabetes and serious infections, as well as injuries.
Where can palliative care be provided? A: It can be provided at home, in an outpatient setting, an urgent care or emergency department, nursing facility or hospital. In hospitals and many nursing facilities, there are teams comprised of physicians, nurses, chaplains or other spiritual care practitioners, social workers, therapists, pharmacists and nutritionists.
How is palliative care provided at Bridgeport Hospital? A: Our Palliative Care Consult Service team consists of five physicians certified in both palliative care and geriatrics, and two advanced practice nurses, one certified in hospice and palliative medicine, and one certified in oncology. We also have a chaplain for spiritual support.We work with hospital social workers and care coordinators, and help plan care after a patient is discharged from the hospital, whenever appropriate.
In essence, we join the patient's primary medical team whenever we are consulted for a hospitalized patient. We tailor our consultative role to the requests of the referring team and the needs of each individual patient and family. In the future, we will expand our service to provide pain and symptom management to patients previously cared for at the hospital.
How is palliative care different from hospice care? A: Hospice is a specialized form of palliative care for patients in the terminal phase of their illness. Patients may enroll as an insurance benefit when their principal goal is comfort. Palliative care and hospice are alike in that both can be delivered at a variety of sites, ranging from home to hospital, depending on the patients' and families' care needs and preferences.

Gallery: Striking Australian Home is Shaped by the Sun's Path
While the design for the home may strike some as odd due to its complex angles, Harrison & White designed it that way on purpose. The architects found that one of the key issues in Australian housing is how we can use the sun to improve new and existing houses, so they wanted to form a house around the idea of maximizing light in a garden space. Sunlight hits the garden and backyard all day long without the imposition of any shadows from the structure of the house.
The completely sunlight garden space was achieved by cutting away parts of the home to allow both morning and evening sun to hit the backyard. This process is called reverse shadow casting – taking the area of space that is to have direct light and extruding it along the different paths of the sun. This area is then subtracted away from the area of the house, and what is left is a complex form designed with the aid of computer modeling.
After the form of the home was decided upon, the exterior of the house was fitted with a shade screen and ballustrading made out of NewTech™-CleverDeck® composite decking, which is made from recycled milk bottles and risk husks. The shade screen helps protect the interior of the home from solar exposure. Bamboo was used for the flooring inside the two-bedroom home, and durable white-coated steel was used for the exterior. The ground floor living space opens completely to the back yard and garden, while accordion doors aid in natural ventilation.

Really cool. My grandparents did something similar to their farm in NC back in the 70s–covered an old barn with a breezeway–and they\'ve never had to use more than ceiling fans in the summer. Do you know how much of this house is run on solar energy?
