This tub is cheap and relatively easy to build and is also useful as a plunge pool in hot weather too. Oh and you can cook on the top of it too!
Step 1: Stuff you will need
- 3 metres of 25mm (1in) stainless tube
- 1 old LPG gas bottle (the kind used for barbecue grills)
- 1 bulk liquids storage tank (the 1000litre kind with a steel palletised cage)
- enough old corrugated iron to cover the outside of the tank
- scrap polystyrene packaging
- 1 closed cell foam camping mattress
- a roll of soft narrow gauge binding wire (or equivalent - you could use cable ties at a pinch)
- scrap metal parts for the legs and decoration
- a canoe paddle or something similar
- arc welder (and the safety gear to go with it)
- angle grinder with metal cutting and grinding discs
- pipe bender large enough to bend 1 inch stainless tube
- tin snips
- heat gun / paint stripper
- box cutter
- strong pliers with a sharp cutting edge
- the trusty knockometer
- various clamps
- magnetic welding clamps are handy
- hacksaw (omit if you're deft with the angle grinder)
- handsaw/drawsaw or equivalent
- narrow nail punch/set or a strong nail
- cordless drill with a 2 - 3mm bit
- a vivid or permanent marker pen
- a gas axe is an optional extra here if you have one and aren't afraid to use it
Instead of making a stove for the coils to heat up in, could I have extra long pipe and put my coils directly over our bonfire pit? Being that we have bonfires a lot, this would give us an option to do both using one heat source. Any suggestions or problems I will run into?
Hello Sir, I am Rachit Wadhawan from Wadhawan Autos & Fiberglass INDIA.We manufacture different types of fiberglass,resins products such as statues,Theme work,furniture,fountains,dustbins,(bin's),pots & many more.we can make any type of fiberglass, poly stone, resins product in any size & in any shape as client requirement.
that louks liek my cuozzinn
Any idea where I could get a tub like this? (I'm in NZ too) What size is it?
I used your basic idea but modified the water heater :D takes approximately 2 hours to heat the entire thing! :D I am also using a pump as the pipes in a radiator are too small to sustain natural circulation in an effective way :D
but how do you keep it clean ? cause the water turns bad really fast !
I have not yet burned through it, but I do think that the steal tube might be better because there is a lot of residual rust and oil and other dirt in old radiators that doesn't seem to disappear.
i am planning to re-make it in some fashion as it desperately needs some sort of filter as the water turns bad and smells of rust quite fast
Aside from this utopian vision, I'm pretty clueless about carrying the project out, as revealed in the following questions for those of you who are handier than me:
1- Someone mentioned concerns about superheating the water if you use a rocket stove, because they burn so hot. Should I be worried about that possibility with the stove I am using? (see picture).
2 - I haven't acquired the bathtub yet, and am trying to decide between fiberglass (I can get an awesomely gaudy giant pink one at a used building supply place for $70) or cast-iron (smallish used ones starting at $200). Aside from price, I think the fiberglass option would have the advantages of being easier to move, easier to cut the outlet hole, and easier to find one that is sufficiently deep. The downside would be that fiberglass is more fragile. Thoughts on how I might mitigate the fragility of fiberglass? Are there other pros and cons I should consider for fiberglass vs. cast iron? Other tub materials I should consider?
3 - If I run the tubing partially through the chimney (assuming I can get the tub high enough for the water to flow properly), will that help capture some of the heat that would otherwise be lost? Is there any reason I shouldn't do that (e.g. the risk of superheating)?
4 - Some non-metal tubing is rated for quite high temperatures. Am I right in thinking that, nonetheless, it would be unwise to use PEX or other non-metal tubing in place of any part of the metal tubing because it could melt? I hope I'm wrong, because PEX is so much easier to work with, I have bunches of it lying around, and would be much easier to configure with respect to connecting to the tub because it is somewhat flexible.
5 - Aside from having additional steel plating welded onto the rather flimsy bottom of the stove, what can I do to prevent it burning out? Would putting a layer of fire brick in the bottom help? Other material?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Also, if you heat up none metal tubing, most times it can ruin the PSI rating on it, I believe you would be beter off using metal tubing. And then in the heating system, toward the end of the pipe have some sort of removable filter to catch anything in the water from the metal reacting with your chemicals. While you want it to be cheam and effective, have to fix it repeatedly wouldn't work so, go with metal tubes.
To your last question, look at ideas from blacksmithing, buy a cheap fan and have it blowing into your stove, it will make the flames hotter and harder to go out, just make sure you stock your stove well.
Good luck.
Those flanged fittings in step 14 are what stops the tub connection from leaking. They have rubber grommets that are sandwiched between the fixed and threaded flanges on the fitting. These are standard farm plumbing connections. I used threaded ones but you may be able to find some with barbed ends. That makes it easier to get a seal on the flexible hose.
I haven't had any problems with heat damage around the inlet. Remember - the tub is full of a lot of cool (by comparison) water that easily soaks up any excess heat around the junction. Which is partly why you can put a soda bottle full of water in a fire and it won't melt.
I use standard foam pipe lagging to insulate the coil pipes but they can end up mleting if they are too close to the fire.
Anyway - thanks for the feedback and good luck with the build!
im thinking sheets of ply stainded black instead of the iron might look good. (extra cost tho)
one question regarging heat flow?--------
you have your inlet and outlet pipes at only about 300mm apart?
wouldnt this work more effictivly if they were placed further apart?
how do you still get thermosiphon if theres people in the pool and water movement means theres a constant temp ( no hot at top and cold at bottom?
im also thinking for mine ill setup a 6l, p/m califont to heat the water.
ive looked into the cost. its about NZD$3 to fill and at 6L pm (25 deg above tap temp) it will fill to 40 deg in 1.5 hrs... for $3!
califont is 200-250 on trade me
my thought with the intex pump (40 on trade me) means (we) could now add chemicals to the pool so it doesnt need to be empitied?
i'd rather no chemicals but the empty/ refill may become a hassle?
do you get 2-3 days before it need a water change?
lastly, have you had any thoughts on the lid?
as you now have the flat pool edges, perhaps flatten the lid to strech across the pool edge, attach a layer of the same poly and a ply layer? making one solid lid piece.
anyway gerat buid and cheers for the inspiration
I haven't noticed any lack of oomph with the 300mm height differential. Thermosiphoning occurs due to the heat differential in the coil rather than the whole of the hot tub. When the heat source is cranking the water temp in the top of the coil will always be hotter than the water coming in the bottom - that's where the driving force comes from. Kill the heating and the thermosiphon will stop. Eventually it may even reverse!
Good luck with the build - post some pics when it's up and running!
I hear alot about not using copper pipe in chloronated water and rather to use 316 stainless steel, it's just the price difference between copper and that grade steel is vast...
so is there anyone that tried copper in chloronated water?
And is their any other alternative tubing to copper and steel.
Another design i was thinking about was maybe using a barrol, fill the barrel with water, heat the barrol to get water to near boiling, have coiled polypipe in the barrol where the pool water will run through, what you guys think?
A "fouth" leg makes it wobble, and it's a pain trying to level a 4 legged stool, table etc.
Stunning projetc Veloboy, well played sir
Just a word of caution to those who don't know about these things. Common sense would tell you that if you emptied the LPG bottle and even triple washed it with detergent and hot water that there couldn't be any gas left in it.
THIS IS NOT SO! With both gasoline tanks and LPG tanks, the steel can and does become impregnated with the fuel and can leach out for MONTHS after it has been emptied and even triple washed with detergent and hot water!
I have two personal friends that fortunately lived through the experience, though not without scars to prove it. In both cases it had been less than ten to fifteen minutes since the last wash and the time they began cutting/ welding. They both woke up in the hospital!
If you must use an LPG tank, it is best if you can do it with the tank FULL of water with an Oxy/Acetylene torch AFTER triple washing. It is dangerous to cut with an electric grinder when it is full of water for what should be obvious reasons.
It can be done safely, but if you don't KNOW what you are doing, it is better to either find a different container (a 10, 15, 30, or 55 gallon drum would work very nicely or an old hot water tank) for your heater or take it to a professional to have them cut it open for you, IF you can find one that is willing to take the risk.
Please feel free to copy and paste the above warning to the beginning of step 8. It could save someone's life. I know of others that were not so fortunate.
Again, Very nice! Awesome artwork!
Thanks for sharing it!
If you fill them with sand though, they cannot get enough oxygen to explode, without the risk of electrocution.
The project looks very interesting and much cheaper than other options on the market.
I would think 1½" - 2" pipes would be better for natural circulation of the hot water. You risk the heater actually boiling, if the circulation is too slow.'

A Revolution In Club Communications
Would you say that a tenfold increase in member communication opportunities would qualify as a "revolution?"
If you could reach your members with announcements about upcoming events, services and reminders about club experiences you offer – ten times as often as you do today – would that make a difference in the level of participation at your club?
Suppose you had a way to communicate with members that, announcement per announcement, costs 50 times less than what your newsletter costs – would that be worth exploring?
Newly available technology can deliver this kind of revolution in your member marketing efforts. To show you how, we have created a short presentation (14 minutes) that explains the technology and how it works. It shows how you can tap into existing communications that you already have with members, vastly increasing their awareness of your club and associated events and services.

The National Weather Service has placed Southern Maryland and six other Maryland counties under a severe thunderstorm watch that will remain in effect until 7 this evening.
Charles County government spokeswoman Crystal Hunt said shortly before 1 p.m. Thursday that they had not received word of any complications related to severe weather in the county.
Hunt said the county has canceled the Commission for Women meeting scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Thursday, and also has closed all outdoor pools.
"The main thing is to be alert and stay tuned to the local weather stations for information," Hunt said.

The old adage "it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings" might apply to the proposed deal to sell Cedar Point's parent company, Cedar Fair.
Apollo Global Management's $2.4 billion purchase of Cedar Fair requires approval from the owners of at least two-thirds of Cedar Fair's outstanding units. The people who own the units must be persuaded that the $11.50 per unit offer is a good deal.
But Cedar Fair executives and Apollo managers have not persuaded analyst Jeffrey Thomison of Hilliard Lyons, a financial consulting firm in Louisville, Ky. He's not convinced they can reach the two-thirds threshold to make the deal go through.
Thomison wrote a report saying the deal price "seems a bit low" given the company's earnings history and its "bright" long-term outlook. He predicted if Cedar Fair remained an independent company, rising cash flows and declining debt would lead to a unit price in the upper teens in 2011.
There is a "slight chance of a higher offer surfacing in the next month or so," Thomison wrote, so it should not be "a foregone conclusion, in our view," that there will be enough support from the unitholders.
The agreement with Apollo allows Cedar Fair to listen to other offers for 40 days.
Randy Hunt, branch manager and senior vice president with Stifel Nicolaus & Co. in Sandusky, said Dec. 18 he's gotten an earful from many unitholders and the reaction has been largely negative. He said he's heard from dozens of people, and "most are unhappy."
"I would say it's a solid majority," he said. "I've got a stack of messages on my desk already this morning to call people back."
"They feel it's a very low price. I believe most of them will vote against it," Hunt said.
Cedar Fair's board voted unanimously to approve the merger, and CEO Dick Kinzel and his executive team strongly back the deal.
The $11.50 price is a 28 percent premium over the closing price on Tuesday, the company noted in its Dec. 16 news release announcing the deal, and a 43 percent premium over the weighted average closing price during the past 30 days.
"We have concluded that the transaction with Apollo is in the best interest of our unitholders," Kinzel said.
He said unitholders will receive documents in the mail explaining why Cedar Fair believes it struck a good deal with Apollo.
The executives recommending the deal, however, don't hold enough units to guarantee a positive outcome on the vote. As of Jan. 31, 2009, the board of directors and the 15 executive officers held about 4.4 percent of the outstanding units.
"That percentage typically is not going to fluctuate very much," said Stacy Frole, director of investor relations for Cedar Fair.
Sandusky resident Susanne Scheid owns many units of Cedar Fair. She said she plans to vote against the deal.
"I don't think they should give up now because the economy's bad," Scheid said. "I think they shouldn't sell to Apollo ... We don't need some outsider telling us what to do."
Levi & Konsinsky, a New York City law firm specializing in securities litigation, said on its Web site it is investigating possible litigation on behalf of unitholders.
"The investigation concerns whether the Cedar Fair board of directors breached their fiduciary duties to Cedar Fair shareholders given that the Company's shares traded at $12 per share as recently as Aug. 3, 2009, and at least one analyst set a price target for Cedar Fair stock at $15 per share," the firm said in a statement.
Dennis Speigel, president of International Theme Park Services of Cincinnati, a theme park consulting company, said it appears Apollo got an excellent price for Cedar Fair. He said he expects Cedar Fair to continue to do well.
"Our industry during 2008 and 2009 has shown as a business, and as an industry, it's very resilient," Speigel said. "It's not recession proof, but it's recession resilient."
Here's what commenters had to say:
Quicksand wrote on Dec 21, 2009 5:26 PM:
" To Browndog271: are you saying Kinzel sold some of his stock or borrowed against it? If he borrowed against it, then wouldn't that make his vote on those shares void? I sold all of mine 2 summers ago so I can't vote, but I would vote no. Not that I am against developement in Sandusky, but it would be nice to keep CP a local amusement park instead of a Casino--especially if they decide to break away from the city, which I think is possible and a likely probability if they do put in a Casino. I know the casinos were not approved for our city, but how long do you think it would be before it is? 2-3 years max? They could build a large condo/hotel building now and in 2-3 years it would be already be ready for the gambling. I've heard for years that Sortinos and CP is already wired and waiting! Don't know if it's true, but I'm sure you've all heard that rumor. The only real beef I've ever had with CP being in my backyard is the price gouging in the summer (and at holidays, like now!) and the traffic. They should give residents a 25% discount everywhere and a special lane to drive in (like the carpool lanes in CA.) And special seating in restarants and our own checkouts lanes! I don't think that's asking for too much! I get sick of hearing what all CP has done for this city and this area and for us! I do not see anything they have done for ME! Unless you own a business on 250 or a hotel, how have you benefited personally? If this city had not catered to them like they did for 35 years, it would be in a lot better shape. They thought they had the goose that laid the golden egg! Well, the goose is dying now, so now what? Better get them tollgates up quick! "

" The deal is way to low, my guess is that the fat cats are getting a great payout to sell off the park, unit holders get the short end of the stick, kinzel porked up the board with hs friends and that is why they rolled over to do the deal and of course keeps him on even though there was a mandatory retirement age, they waived it for him, then he made the horrid decision to over pay for paramount parks, just like Nero, watched Rome burn.

" I own shares of (FUN) indirectly through mutual funds and therefore have a say in the matter.
IMO, the fact that the div'd was suspended earlier this yr. should have been 'handwriting on the wall' for only but the clueless.
Wasn't it 2006 when Cedar Fair purchased the other parks and took on the debt? Remember 2006? Credit was flowing, lending was loose and interest rates were low. Anyone familiar with the term – 'The Great Moderation'?
Many business decisions are made in the midst of a credit bubble that in hindsight are later found to be imprudent. Monday morning quarterbacking is for those who never take the field.
Now commercial credit is tight to nonexistent. Cedar Fair is a capital intensive business and needs a line of credit in order to survive as a viable business – without it, it dies.
If you know how to read financials, (I'm not an expert, but I know enough) look at Cedar Fair's annual report – they're in trouble!
They need a capital infusion and Apollo is their lifeline.
For the love of Mike, Six Flags declared bankruptcy earlier this yr. and have yet to emerge.
Equity holders are at the bottom of the food chain in a bankruptcy and tend to end up with zero.

" Litigation over Breach of Fiduciary Duty will most likely not be successful as the board has simply been foolish, not negligent to this point. The Paramount deal tought a lesson that second rate amusement parks will lose. We already know locally how second rate water parks fair as well.
Apollo understands this and is best suited to lead to the devlopment of a first rate Casino incorporated with a first rate amusement park. It is simply a good business decision and wil increase profit and provide a steady stream of off-season income that far, far excedes any water park.
Part of the determining factor of what price to sell needs to look at the potential value to other investors and what the end result could be. This is a low ball deal, and unit holders should hold off until we're in the $18 range. "
Grayghost wrote on Dec 21, 2009 6:16 AM:
" It appears something is not quite right. How can Cedar Point get themselves into so much debt and not understand how much debt they were acquiring by buying up every park around. It doesn't sound smart or make any sense. Does anyone know what the stock topped off when it was doing great? I think the SEC should be looking into why they took on so much debt and then turned around and dumped their stockholders at a loss to a company that has a casino background. "
Joker wrote on Dec 21, 2009 3:30 AM:
" In this economy, people are going to cash the (expletive) out. Lots of the unit holders bought shares when they were $10 a pop. They got paid fat dividends for 20 years and the stock split, so $11.50 is a great deal. I guarantee D!ck Kinzel and his hundreds of thousands of shares are going to vote yes. Also consider how many people will simply allow their votes to go to a proxy bidder who will more than likely vote 'yes.' "

Marion County's
Wanted Gang Members/Affiliates
The individuals listed on this page are on post prison supervision or probation in Marion County, have failed to comply with the conditions of their parole/probation and are currently wanted.
If you have information about these people, please call the Marion County Sheriff's Office, Parole & Probation Special Services Unit at (503) 588-8492, or your local law enforcement agency.
This page was created in response to the sizeable number of gang offenders who abscond rather than comply with the terms of their Post-Prison Supervision. Over the next two years there are approximately 100+ inmates due to be released to Marion County who have prior and/or current gang histories. Due to the volatile nature of this group as a whole, we believe it is vital to hold these absconders accountable for their behavior before it escalates into new criminal activity. We are hoping the public can view this website at their leisure, and if any information on the listed people is known, contact us anonymously to report possible whereabouts.

It turned out that what they thought were mistakes by Fischer were mistakes by themselves. Fischer's analysis was correct. Their's was wrong. As a result, Fischer famously went on the radio to denounce those who claimed to have "improved" on his work.

Book Description
Continuing his major work on strategy and tactics in modern chess, the internationalyl renowned Grandmaster, Ludek Pachman, now turns his attention to the play of the pawns and the achievement of control of the center squares.
Though the pawns are the weakest pieces in chess, their importance in determining the character of the attack (and defense) and the development of strategic play cannot be underestimated. Pawns are essential to the protection of important squares and pieces. They are the best means of blockading enemy pawns and when correctly deployed, their advance can open vital files and diagonals, thereby creating weaknesses in the opposite position. Despite its limited power, the pawn has one special advantage over other pieces in that it can be promoted when it reaches the eighth rank; a successful pawn advance can completely change the balance of power and the outcome of a game. Pawns have aptly been described as "the soul of chess."
Vital of chess mastery is a basic understanding of the importance of control of the center squares. The effectiveness of the pieces depend upon the strength of their position and center control creates a vital sapatial superiority.
The effective play of the pawns and center control have been touched upon on other works, but seldom with the insight and lucidity revealed in this second volume of Pachman's masterwork.

 As recent as August of last year Jade Goody was given the devastating news that she had cervical cancer while she was appearing on India's version of Big Brother, "Big Boss". As a huge fan of Jade since her first appearance on Big Brother 3 in 2002 I was shocked like so many to read those headlines. Little did anyone know then we would now be reading about her impending death.

 As recent as August of last year Jade Goody was given the devastating news that she had cervical cancer while she was appearing on India's version of Big Brother, "Big Boss". As a huge fan of Jade since her first appearance on Big Brother 3 in 2002 I was shocked like so many to read those headlines. Little did anyone know then we would now be reading about her impending death.

 Over the years Jade has come in for a lot of criticism and cruel comments not least from those green with jealously of her success. OK, she made a few mistakes, don't we all, perhaps her biggest and most controversial one was the "poppadom" incident with Shilpa Shetty on Celebrity Big Brother in 2007. Too much was made of that and I've always felt that the only reason Ms. Shetty caused such an uproar over it was because she saw Jade as a threat to her chance of winning CBB. She cleverly used the moment to secure her win with sympathy votes.

 Life for Jade had always been an uphill struggle, missing out on schooling because she had to become a carer at the tender age of five to her brother and drug addicted parents, at one point dragging her doped-up mother from their blazing home. With her father in and out of prison and her mother with a paralyzed arm as a result of a horrendous motorbike accident Jade never got the chance to live her childhood in the carefree way every child deserves. She should not have had to take on that responsibility so young.

 Big Brother 3 in May 2002 gave her the opportunity to temporarily escape her dreadful home environment and live her life where at last she would only be responsible for herself. The freedom must have been immense. Life in the BB house was not always fun and games for Jade. I felt her intense desire to be loved was taken advantage of by one or two of the male housemates. I particularly remember her having feelings for one of the guys and having spent some of the night with him he then rebuked her advances the following day. My heart broke watching her approaching him for a hug only for him to just walk away, I think that was when I really connected with her.

 Alongside the sad moments were times when Jade was also highly entertaining with her hilarious outbursts. Although she only came in fourth (I still think she should have won) her BB experience would take her on a personal journey that only most of us could dream of. There were times during her adventures when I thought perhaps it was too much not necessarily too soon. There was no end to this sudden roller-coaster ride.

 June 2003 saw the birth of Jade's first baby, a boy she called Bobby. Fifteen months later in September 2004 she gave birth to her second son, Freddie. Shortly following the birth she separated from Jeff Brazier, a television presenter and father of her two boys. Another painfull episode in Jade's life only this time she had the children to love and take care of.

 The years leading up to the present were peppered with highs and lows, most notably, becoming a winner in yet another television show "Celebrity Stars In Their Eyes" and collapsing while participating in the April 2006 London Marathon. In May and June of the same year she released her first autobiography "Jade: My Autobiography" and launched her first fragrance, Shh! It seems that some time after that she was tested for bowel cancer.

 The following year was a bad time for Jade. In January 2007 she returned to the BB house for Celebrity Big Brother with her boyfriend Jack Tweed (who she now plans to marry within the next week or so) and her mother Jackiey Budden. That was when the ill-fated episode with Bollywood film star Shilpa Shetty happened and the world just seemed to turn against poor Jade from that moment onwards. Bookstores removed her book from their shelves, her perfume wasn't selling any more and life must have been a total hell for her. Not anything to the hell she would face a year and a half later when once again reunited with Shilpa Shetty this time in India on their version of BB called "Big Boss" she would receive the earth-shattering news that she had cervical cancer.

 Up until a week ago Jade had a huge fight on her hands, she was going to beat this basterding disease. Then last Friday, February 13th, her doctors hit her with the bombshell that she was dreading but probably secretly guessed, her cancer was now terminal. The life-saving surgery performed the previous week to remove the golf-ball sized turmour from her bowel succeeded only in the sense that had it been left she would surely have died from complications associated with a bowel blockage.

 Now the previous hope of a 40% chance of recovery was cruelly replaced by no hope at all. A couple of months at most are all that remain of her short life but Jade being Jade is going to make the best of that time.

 She has already drawn up a will leaving all her money and properties to her two adorable boys. They have always been the love of her life and even when she first received her cancer diagnosis it was her children that her thoughts turned to and how they would be looked after should she not make it. This young beautiful mother's world revolves entirely around these boys and she has already taken care of their private schooling expenses until they are eighteen. She desperately wants them to have the education she was so cruelly denied.

 The other love of her life, Jack Tweed, himself just a twenty-one year old but now with all the worry and responsibility of a man many many years older has asked Jade to become his wife. With a spirit that only Jade Goody could possess she mustered the energy to leave her hospital bed accompanied by Jack and his mother (Jack wheeling Jade's wheelchair) to travel to Harrods Department Store where its owner, Mohamed Al Fayed presented Jade with the wedding dress she'd chosen as a wedding present. At some point during the day she and Jack exchanged wedding rings in an emotional private ceremony on the banks of the Thames.

 Jade is also making plans to have her children christened because she wants them to know that their "Mummy will be looking down on them from Heaven". She is refusing to use the word "dead", she doesn't feel she needs to right now. I've a feeling that this real life "Love Story" will remain in our hearts long after the 1970's film has faded from our memories, after all, that was fiction. Jade, Bobby, Freddie and Jack are very real people who are about to embark each on their own journey. For Jade, it will be a journey to a very special place where there will be no more pain or suffering and from where she can look down upon her family and friends, especially her adorable children, Bobby and Freddie. In time they will grow to realise the wonderful loving mother they had in the person we've come to know and love as Jade Goody.

Let's just say, in theory, that you got home from work a little bit early today; and let's go one further and say that there is a 6' tall snowbank between your parked car and the sidewalk that leads down the path to your door. Assuming that the snowbank was not solid ice, and that the earth has this thing called gravity; at some point during your attempt to go over the pile of snow, your legs probably sank down pretty far, and then you had to pull them out and climb a little higher, sinking down again.
You most likely repeated those actions enough times to eventually get over the top and then you did more of a slide down the back of the snowbank. Your boots are wet, your socks are wet, your pants are water-logged, and unfortunately you're wearing the ones that are longer than they should be; so they're also dragging down the sidewalk all the way to your door; bringing tiny piles of snow and ice along with them.
Since it's windy, and you're already shaking from the low temperature, the first thing you do when you close the front door behind you is to take off your jacket, hat, gloves, sopping wet boots and socks. Then you look down at your pants, which are sticking to your legs as if you went swimming in them, and figure, "I might as well take these off, too"; which you do. Right there in your entryway.
You're standing there, shivering cold, but at least you're no longer wet, and decide to quickly flip through your mail. Then, just as you start a little mini-jog towards your bedroom, where you're to find comfortable, dry clothes to throw on, a man walks out of your bathroom. He's as surprised to see you as you are to see him.
Each of you manages to scream LIKE A GIRL for about 5 seconds, and once you realize you're standing there in nothing but a sweater, in front of one of the maintenance guys, you get it together long enough to push past him and slam your bedroom door, all the while yelling, "What the F%*K, YOU GUYS ARE SUPPOSED TO CALL 24 HOURS BEFORE YOU COME IN HERE!"; and he's stammering apologies, saying "It was marked down that someone DID call, but it must have been an oversight because why would you be half naked if you knew someone was fixing your bathroom sink?", and while you're pulling on some pants you yell back, "You're damned right it was an oversight!"
Then he says he "just finished anyway!", which, because you're delirious, in shock and also because you have the twisted mind of a 15 year old, you misconstrue it, thinking he's trying to be funny by implying something ENTIRELY different by that statement, and you lose your shit completely until you realize he just means he's done with the sink repair.
By the time you open your bedroom door--fully dressed--you're already laughing about the absurdity of the last 15 minutes.
Having quietly stepped over your pile of wet clothes and boots in the entryway, he's already gone.

This is all theoretical, of course; it certainly didn't just happen to me.
Let's just say, in theory, that you got home from work a little bit early today; and let's go one further and say that there is a 6' tall snowbank between your parked car and the sidewalk that leads down the path to your door. Assuming that the snowbank was not solid ice, and that the earth has this thing called gravity; at some point during your attempt to go over the pile of snow, your legs probably sank down pretty far, and then you had to pull them out and climb a little higher, sinking down again.

Damn, I need to get a maintenance man job!
Seriously though that must have been a shock!
I pulled a gun a on a "super" (easier to spell) once. I was home sick with the flu and he came in to change smoke detector batteries. I woke up from a feverish sleep hearing noises in the dining room. So I got my pistol out.
He swears he knocked loudly and called out several times before he came in but if he did I did not hear it in my Nyquil induced coma.
Either way, I bet he knocked and called out louder from then on! {evil grin}

OMG. That is so funny.
One morning I was dancing around half naked in my living room on my hardwood floors to a blues song. Then I saw the three men my landlord had hired for some sort of maintenance come out from the crawl space under my house. They glanced over and into my french door (with open blinds of course) and they saw me and I saw them. I screamed and ran into my bedroom completely humiliated. They saw me dancing half-naked AND they had been under the living room while I was hopping around on the hardwood floors a mere few inches from their heads.
I thought I was going to die. I was late to work because I waited until they drove off a bit later so I wouldn't have to actually walk past them to get to my car.

HA HA HA HA HA ... that would soooooo happen to me. I got out of the shower once and I heard something ... realized there was a maintenance guy on a ladder outside my open window. Good times!

ROFL what a hilarious story. In college I did the dancing around in my underwear, singing into a microphone that was actually a can of hairspray, in my dorm room. Too bad the window cleaners came to have a laugh at me. I have never been more embarrased but now it is a story I love to tell :)

Yikes, me and my underwear don't dance around without pants on, so I've never had an accident as you describe...of course there is always the talk of pavement. ;)

Now THAT is quality, albeit theoretical. Good times, theoretically! I just sincerely hope that whoever had this experience was not practicing from the "every pair of underwear has two good sides" school of thought. That would have been tres, TRES unfortunate.

Only Jen would get to the important question. So? It could be the great opening scene to your, errrr, her first ever starring role in a porno . . .

TWO guys came in to "check on things" for the landlord when I was alone and sleeping in my apatrment in college. They'd NEVER call-just show up and let themselves in. That really sucked.

@SisMis: Yes, strong like bull.
@Swishy: Was the maintenance guy on the ladder actually DOING anything or was he just taking in the show?
@Kat: WOW, that is a doozy. I feel much better now because I can honestly say there was no dancing or singing involved... but that's just because he left too soon!
@Melissa: THERE WAS NO DANCING! (I cannot tell you how happy I am about that, I mean, if there was it would have been him or me-- one of us dead for sure-- me=embarrassment; him=homicide.
@Jen (part 1): Leave it to you to get to the heart.... err, whatever, of the matter. He wasn't cute ENOUGH, let's put it that way.
@Ree: Yup, neither one of us have been through something traumatic like that. Nope. I sure haven't, and definitely not last night if ever.
@Fruitcake Lady: No, I don't think that was an issue. Just a guess, though. A theory.
@Stace: You know me too well and for far too many years to assume that it would have been the FIRST. (heh heh)
@Tootsie: I know, right? Humor will get you through just about anything. Or so I hear.
@Jen (part 2): Jeaux Creux Prodeaux, baby!
@Ginny: I think I know those guys. Were they delivering a pizza? Bow chika bow wowwwwww.......

@Ginny - Did someone here order cable?
- February 13, 2008 at 8:18 PM
Bottom line..the sink WAS fixed wasn't it? Consider the show YOU put on for the maintenance guy as a well deserved gratutity!
Afterall, he was a victim too! Compassion is next to Godliness!
Yes, God does have a sense of humor!

@Rob: Very good point, sir!
@Anon: Yes, the sink is fixed, however I resent the idea that the maintenance man was a victim of any kind! I'm sure he considers it a gift. heh.
@Kris (fireflies): I don't know anyone who could have avoided screaming like a girl in that situation!
@CherryRide: Do I have you to thank for having my story linked over at Audience of Two
? I assume so since your "Quiz" post is the link just before mine... ;)
@Spammon: Yes, I had to check and make sure he didn't remove the hidden cameras. What it actually taught me is to walk AROUND the snowbank next time.
@Angela: I know, it's hard to think beyond the thoughts probably flooding through your mind that consist of, "I'm so glad that was her and not me!"
@TexAAsGirl: By "sink", you mean....?

49er World Championships
Rachel Solon
posted on September 29, 2013 19:01
Today was the last day of competition at the Seiko 49er World Championships in Marseilles, France. In both the men's 49er and women's 49erFX the day started with a petit final which was made up of the sailors who were in 10th – 20th position in the Gold Fleet and the winner competed in the three final races with the top 10 afterwards. Providence Team IRL's Ryan Seaton and Matt McGovern finished in 16th in the petit final which left them in 14th position overall in the regatta.
Commenting on the team's performance, James O'Callaghan, ISA Performance Director stated "A solid performance for Providence Team IRL at the world championships in Marseilles. Just outside their target of top 10, but nonetheless an encouraging start to their Rio 2016 cycle".
It was a good event for Team NZL who won the event with Burking & Tuke and their teammates Hansen & Porebski finished in 2nd place. Australia's Nathan Outteridge and Iain Jensen, London 2012 Gold medalists finished in 5th place.
In the 53 boat women's FX fleet, Ireland's Andrea Brewster and Saskia Tidey who have only been sailing together for two months had a good regatta for their first event finishing 36th. The highlight of the event for the team was a race win in the silver fleet on the penultimate day.
Meanwhile in China, European Champion Annalise Murphy is preparing for the Women's Laser Radial World Championships which start in Rizhao City on Tuesday 01 October and finishes on Monday 07 October.
*** *** ***
19th of September 2013
Next week (beginning Tuesday 24th September) two of Ireland's Olympic sailors; Ryan Seaton and Matt McGovern, will be hoping to replicate the recent successes of their teammate Annalise Murphy as they compete in their biggest event of the year – the 2013 49er & 49erFX World Championships. The Providence Team IRL sailors will face a physically gruelling six day and potential 25 race regatta which will be held in Marseille, France.
Included in the high quality, 96 boat fleet will be three-time World Champions and London 2012 Gold medallists Nathan Outteridge and Iain Jensen from Australia who have most recently been competing in the America's Cup. Kiwis Peter Burling and Blair Tuke, London 2012 Silver medallists and 2013 49er European Champions will also be in attendance.
This championship will conclude what has been a busy summer for Seaton and McGovern. The pair, who both hail from Northern Ireland, had their best performance of the year at the Sail for Gold regatta in Weymouth in June when they won Gold. The pair are targeting a solid top 10 finish at the World Championships.
ISA Performance Director James O'Callaghan Commented "With the Worlds being late in the season it has given everyone a chance to get back up to speed post Olympics. Without doubt this will be the toughest event of 2013 for Ryan and Matt".
Also competing at the regatta but in the female 49erFX class will be Ireland's newest Olympic campaigners Andrea Brewster and Saskia Tidey. The pair have only just begun sailing together and the Worlds will be somewhat of a baptism of fire.

Interpretive Handbook
89986 :
Blastomyces Antibody by EIA, Spinal Fluid
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
The dimorphic fungus, Blastomyces dermatitidis, causes blastomycosis. When the organism is inhaled, it causes pulmonary disease-cough, pain, and hemoptysis, along with fever and night sweats. It commonly spreads to the skin, bone, or internal genitalia where suppuration and granulomas are typical. Occasionally, primary cutaneous lesions after trauma are encountered; however, this type of infection is uncommon. Central nervous system disease is uncommon.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Detection of antibodies in patients having blastomycosis
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
A positive result indicates that IgG and/or IgM antibodies to Blastomyces were detected. The presence of antibodies is presumptive evidence that the patient was or is currently infected with (or exposed to) Blastomyces.
A negative result indicates that antibodies to Blastomyces were not detected, but does not rule out infection.
All specimens testing equivocal will be repeated. Specimens testing equivocal after repeat testing should be submitted for further testing by another conventional serologic test (eg, CBL / Blastomyces Antibody by Immunodiffusion, Spinal Fluid).
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
A negative result does not rule out blastomycosis.
Cross-reactivity may occur with other fungal infections such as Aspergillus, Coccidioides, or Histoplasma.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Clinical References Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give."
Thanks... I like heritage and culture. When I teach my classes about Carthage they want to hear about Hannibal crossing the Alps and war elephants, and such... and i tell them... but i concentrate on Rome burning Carthage and salting the earth... I want them to realize why we don't know as much about Carthage as we do about Rome.. that all human culture and experience is a slim volume in a great library... and that to not learn about other different peoples and work to preserve unique cultures is to pull volumes out of that library that can never be replaced... salting the earth... removing from the storehouse things that memory may not carry to future generations... I'm sure this sounds cheesy and the fact that i am dashing it off probably doesn't help... but i'm sure you get the drift... thanks..

I promised several readers last week that I would write about winter.
There is nothing like a heat wave to make you dream of crisp cool winter days and quiet drifts of snow. (Ok, Californians, I know you dream of 72˚ weather and enough rain that you don't have to water the still blossoming garden.)
If, as most climate experts expect, we have an El Niño, winter might be a bit weird.
Click to expand. Satellite pictures show how El Niños develop. SOURCE: NOAA.
Basically, an El Niño (Spanish for "Little Boy) occurs when the Tropical Pacific is unusually warm, more than 0.5˚C or 0.9˚F hotter than average. It heats the air above it, which allows the atmosphere to hold more moisture. Air pressure changes and that changes wind patterns. The unusual warmth lasts for months. Since the warm area is hundreds of thousands of square miles in size, it usually changes weather around the Pacific Rim and throughout the tropics.
El Niños move. The warmer water drifts east, while new warm water wells up in the center of the Pacific. Eventually the warm water crashes into the west coast of South America, around Ecuador. From there, it drifts north along the West Coast until it is off the coast of California. Warmth shifts north in the West and winds carry it inland. Meanwhile, the Pacific jetstream is shifted north and the southern tier of states wallow in water. (Good news for Texas!)
Click to expand. El Niños bring warmer weather north and cooler weather south. SOURCE: NOAA.
El Niños normally make the northern states and Canada warmer and the southern states and Mexico wetter. Confusing, isn't it!
Unfortunately, for my Ohio readers, parts of the Midwest have less snow, which means things stay dry.
Of course, El Niño isn't the only pattern that shapes winter. If an Arctic Oscillation is in a negative mood, it will be cold. The Arctic Oscillation is the king of winter, and a "little boy" cannot fight a king.
So, if you love shoveling snow off your sidewalks, this winter may disappoint you. If you like cool but not frigid weather, El Niño may be your best friend.
