Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.

Who are all the countries in the world in debt to?
I hear everywhere how Greece is in debt, France is in debt, the UK is in debt, Poland is in debt ....
I hear that part of these debts are so called internal debts i.g. governments owe money to their respective citizens, which boils down to us being in debt to ... ourselves. This concept in itself does not boggle my mind as much as the fact that anyone in their right mind is willing to buy it.
Part of these debts are so called external debts. Now, this can basically make sense only can anyone explain to me where does the buck stop i.e. who is the ultimate source of all that enormous credit? Since I am a kind of a redneck, can someone explain this in very simple terms steering clear of the language of economics which of course was developed for anything but explaining things?
Bob Stiglitz
Feb 20 2013: Remember debts are imaginary, they are political fictions. States, technically, cannot go "bankrupt". They are the masters of the money game. Only the oligarchy keeps the masses deluded believing debt and money is little more then political fiction.
- +3
If the public was smart they'd take back the central banks of their governments and just print money to pay off the debt, since most government debt is 'illegal' anyway (pushed by oligarchs on nations to subdue their populations).Feb 18 2013: Money is manufactured out of thin air. It costs the manufactures nothing, and they collect the interest. They could forgive the debt and it would cost them nothing, but why would they? If they did, they'd be giving away free money. These are not government entities, but have official sounding names to lend a certain credence. The money is imaginary, and so is the debt. We buy into it's reality because someone with an official sounding title told us we should, and this mantra fits right in with the values we were taught as children. We're being scammed. Read a book called "Secrets of the Federal Reserve". Seriously, our entire monetary system is based on a hoax. All this talk about redistributing wealth is for real, but once you start paying attention to it you will realized that the redistribution is from the bottom up.
Feb 19 2013: Fascinating stuff. Funny how people living half way around the world see some things eye to eye . Respect instilled in kids for entities with official sounding names is nothing but someone's business plan. Horrible but true. Boy, am I grateful to have seen the light. I chucked my silly (though well paid job) some years ago. True, I have no money now, but I have ... sunshine, wind, birds chirping, my own cucumbers and all the time in the world to do what I like doing plus satisfaction that no freaking millionaire usurer is able to enjoy life more than I do. I advise everyone to do the same before the whole world goes berserk again.
Feb 19 2013: It's interesting, there seems to be a lot of bitterness about millionaires being millionaires. I don't hold that particular bitterness. Like you, my disdain comes from the usurer part of your statement. Many (certainly not all) of these people (with our help) hold themselves in superiority while their fortunes have been made through opportunities that the rest of us don't have. I hold no wish for equality in outcome, but do think equality in opportunity should be a goal of any civilized society.
Feb 20 2013: ...their fortunes have been made through opportunities that the rest of us don't have ... but if we had them none of us would ever resist the temptation to make full advantage of them and thus become part and parcel of that global canker gnawing mercilessly the global economy.
...equality in opportunity should be a goal of any civilized society ... that's utopia. I am not aiming at this ideal world. What I am trying to do is to mitigate the economic polarization of the global society so as to defer the unpleasant moment when the rich come and get me (make me leave my house and seek shelter under any bridge brrr we have bad climate for camping year round :-) )
But we digress. The point in question is DEBT. I believe the present will be looked at (if there is anyone to look back on the present) as the period of rampant debt.Feb 20 2013: I guess utopia means different things to different people. Regarding debt, the money we use (In the US) is imaginary, it's backed by nothing at all except that someone says it exists. By definition then, the debt is imaginary too. We ought to be able to imagine a solution.
Feb 20 2013: I am sometimes imaginning a solution. Since the monetary system in place is surreal (as you believe it is), people should build from scratch a new one side by side with the old one, but never mutually connected. One such system does not even require money. It's barter. You bake bread for someone, someone in turn gives you poultry, you build someone a house, someone in turn repairs and maintains your car. Of course the parity of these mutual services must be somehow figured out, but does it not when money is used? By doing this you do not fall foul of any laws (as long as money does not change hands the inland revenue office can get stuffed) Go barter and laugh at billionaires!
Ben Jarvis
Feb 26 2013: basically it's in either of 2 forms, the country either borrows from another country or from it's own citizens in what are called bonds. a bond is basically a way of loaning your savings to the country instead of sticking them in a term-deposit. they actually make sense to buy because the government can always sell more bonds to pay you back, so it's a pretty safe investment.
- +1
the other way is to borrow from a central bank, which creates the money out of thin air and loans it to the government at interest. the government could really just keep this money, but doing so would devalue all currency and you'd get lethal inflation, so it's much better that they don't do this. this of course means that people who own these central banks get absolutely filthy rich off doing nothing but collecting interest which is ultimately paid by taxpayers.

Feb 25 2013: Debt is relative: it is simply our way of keeping track of where we are in relation to others. I'd highly recommend "Payback" by Margaret Atwood if you want a more philosophical take on debt without economic jargon.Feb 23 2013: I recommend the book "Debt"by david graeber

Its rather terse at times but explains the history of debt over the last 5,000 years.Touches on money. And some interesting issues such as 3rd world debt, where money is lent to dictators, but ends up being owed by the poor taxpayers or citizens.
His key point regards the duality of debt. How the positive aspects of being grateful or indebted to others is mixed with a history being employed, enslaved, in servitude, or subject to others and financial obligations.
He is probably a bit light on the benefits of credit e.g. micro finance in the third world, or borrowing to set up or expand businesses anywhere, where we don;t let our selves become slaves to our debts.
Craig Hall
Feb 14 2013: You are right to smell a rat. We do indeed owe most of the money to ourselves. Two thirds of UK Gvt debt is owed to the pension and insurance funds. More of a private Gvt playing with our money. The rest is mainly owed to China. Mainly on the back of a cheap labour force.
- +1
The Capitalists or the 1% are desperate to maintain this false debt, it's good for them, it works rather well because we do all the work.
We all need a sense of purpose in life and to be able to enjoy the fruits of our labour. There are currently 200 million unemployed around the world, not much purpose for them.
Scot Wilcox
Feb 13 2013: HMMMM....looks like we've got some problems don't we. Money seems increasingly to be an imaginary number in a computer somewhere. I certainly wouldn't rely on a fat bank account for your prosperity and security.

Feb 13 2013: Countries are in debt to the IMF. A Monetary Fund which exists to manage International trade deficits. It is called the International Monetary Fund, known most widely as the IMF. The hidden agenda for the IMF is to replace the gold exchange standard with "Fiat Money", which is money printed at-will, or more crudely but accurately called counterfeit. The IMF loans money to nations through The World Bank. Loans are most often to LDC'c (Less Developed Countries). Founded by The Fabians (Keynes and White) in 1944, the program has one unified goal which is to establish global Socialism. It is this program that funds the "social reform" going on every day under local dictators living lavishly on the borrowed counterfeit money. (Read chapter 5 of "The Creature From Jekyll Island", by Ed Griffin).

Feb 13 2013: Many thanks for this. I find your answer as exhaustive as I find it grim. Also I have for some time suspected as much, but thought that perhaps I was being paranoid. I believe the world slides yet again down into a global disaster. I picture humanity to myself as two guys in a boat on Orinoko river, busy exchanging blows and quite oblivious of their boat drifting ever closer to a big waterfall. Do you know of a good place to hide away and weather the impending storm?
edward long
Feb 13 2013: Sure Jarek. Get down to your elected representative's local office and make a pest of yourself by impressing upon the minions there that you see what is happening to our once great nation and that you will vote for the candidate who shows similar awareness and is dedicated to changing our course before we go over the falls. Do not give up!

Feb 14 2013: I have every intention to follow your advice except that I will not be expressing my concern over the once great nation of yours, but rather over my own which is in the same plight as yours if not worse. I live in Poland :-)Feb 14 2013: No surrender Mr. Steliga. Thanks for the reminder that there are still some nations remaining that have not been completely converted to Socialism.Feb 13 2013: funny isn't it? you barely hear about the countries that are lending the money.

Feb 12 2013: I might misunderstand your question.

As I understand government bonds, when a person buys a government bond, that is a "loan" to the government in the sense that if you hold it for its term and then cash it in, the unit of government is obligated to pay back the face value on the bond.
When a country, like the US, owes money to another country, right now it might be China who has made the loan. ($1.2 trillion in US debt is held by China).
Is that what you were asking?
Feb 13 2013: Yes and no. Does it not bother you that your government borrows money from you. IMO governments only dispose of your (and other citizens') money. Therefore when you lend money to your government you as good as lend it to yourself. Does this make sense? Lending or borrowing anything to/from oneself? I repeat, government's money is YOUR money. When the government pays interest on loans which it received from you, where is the money to pay this interest coming from? My guess is from your very own pocket!
BTW are you the type of person who likes to live on borrowed money? If you are not (as I am not) are you not enraged (as I am) that your government makes you effectively live on borrowed money (borrowed as per your explanation from China)?
Feb 13 2013: Many know more about this than I do, but you do not have to buy government bonds. Only people who want to buy them do so.
I personally do not like to owe money. But many people borrow money to buy a home. The price of the house needs to be paid up front though the family will use it over time and is best able to pay for it over time. Those who do not like to carry mortgage debt can either pay up front, if they have the cash available to do that, or rent. As you say, many homeowners borrow for that investment and pay it off over thirty years.
Businesses also often borrow money as a matter of course to invest in something that pays off in the future.
So borrowing is common in the private sector as well and is often considered good strategy.
Feb 14 2013: Quite right. Borrowing is a good strategy on condition that it is an investment i.e. the borrowed money is used to buy tangible assets like means of production or a house in which you and your family is going to live for many years to come and untill well after such time when the loan will have been paid back. Borrowing is NOT a good strategy when the borrowed money is just used to temporarily improve the standard of life as if there was no tomorrow. I fear it is the latter kind of borrowing that my country, Poland, is helping itself to. I also view this strategy as some kind of a trap. Once the time to pay it all back comes and days of grace are over, the goverment will be forced to raise taxes and bills untill more and more citizens are no longer able to afford to pay. People will then be evicted from their homes and land and will become tenants and slaves in the country which they once called their own while that country will be owned by whoever it is that lent us money in the first place. Hence in my view borrowing money by governments (without asking the consent of the nations which those governments were elected to represent) is a CRIME. It makes my hair stand on end when I realize that each day gets me ever deeper in debt to somebody I do not even know, when I have always made sure that I have never owed money to anybody and never have lived beyond my means.Feb 12 2013: I figure that the debt is owed to other nations, who hold the bonds (for the debt). What I don't understand is why you can't mutually forgive debt, ex. if Greece owns some of Italys' debt and italy owns some of Greeces' then why not mutually forgive, effectively reducing debt between the two making things better.Feb 20 2013: Since it is seems to be a common consent (or judgement passed by majority) in this forum that debt is bad, one wonders why people are so enthusiastically getting into it. Don't we all instinctively try to steer clear of debt? We do, hence the usurer's road is a bumpy one and their "job" requires no small wit and presence of mind . As in trapping animals, a whole lot of devices are being continuously invented before would be victims get wise to them. In Europe currently in use is certain tool the principle of which I want to explain here. There exists a system of so called European Union Bonuses or Subsidies. In order to qualify for such EU subsidy the beneficiary must first invest a certain sum of money of their own. Only once this sum of money is organized, the subsidy is paid. So people do not hesitate to borrow the required initial sum seeing how they will later be given (yes, given for free!) twice or three times as much. Borrowing money in order to qualify for these subsidies became a norm. Everybody does this from small businesses to national governments. The stunning thing is that even local governments do this. The usurer triumphs. Where money gets borrowed, interest gets accrued! There remains the question where money to cover the subsidies comes from. That's an easy one. It comes from our pockets in the first place. The whole mechanism looks like this. I pay money to the EU (through tax), then very graciously I get some of this money back (part of it goes to pay the EU exploding administration) but first I must take a loan. The net result is that I not only finance the offices in Bruxelles, but on top of this I stand to pay the interest for the loan which I took in the process of getting my own money (the "subsidy") back. But as I say there is no protecting people from the consequences of their own stupidity.Feb 19 2013: they owe money to their own public as well as international investors. Governments borrow money by issuing bonds (promissory notes to payback interest) that different investors buy to protect themselves against uncertainty, inflation, make a few bucks on the side since return on investment usually goes down as the amount of that investment goes up (google law of diminishing returns). This is just another way for governments to make money. Others include: invading other countries and ripping off their resources(not used widely anymore), taxes, printing money(another form of taxation). Governments could default on their debts but that's pretty much a suicide for an economy (check out end of USSR). Also, one of the biggest reasons why U.S. can borrow money at a negative real interest rate (meaning interest rate that's smaller than inflation), is because it's one of the few countries in the world that has never defaulted on their debt.Feb 13 2013: This is part of life, but if a country is too irresponsible, there can be real problems. IF I'm owed money I want it back sometime.

I'm a huge fan of popular conspiracy theories, like the faked moon landing, 9/11 or Nazis living in Antarctica. Is there anywhere a museum or something similar about conspiracies?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Travel Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for road warriors and seasoned travelers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
It may not be the the exact controversies you are seeking, but Washington DC's spy museum offers an immersive experience in the art of spycraft.
It is specific to one type of conspiracy, but the UFO Museum in Roswell, New Mexico is interesting.
I will warn you though, the museum isn't all that fancy. Much of it looks like a high school science fair. They clearly aren't a big budget operation, but it is worth the cost of admission at least.
Also about one particular event, the JFK Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas does a very good job covering the conspiracies about JFK's assassination.
In Washington DC, there is the Crime Museum. It is near the Spy Museum.
There is also an exhibit at the Newseum that might be up your alley.

Thorne-Sagendorph Art Gallery
Keene, NH 03431
Ph: 603-383-4186
The Thorne-Sagendorph Art Gallery is the dynamic, vital center for the visual arts in the Monadnock Region, encompassing the best of the traditional and contemporary worlds.
The original gallery was a gift to Keene State College and the community from beaTrix Sagendorph, artist and benefactor, in memory of her mother, Louise E. Thorne, in 1965. The gallery was then located in Keene State's Mason Library.
In 1976, the Thorne became the Thorne-Sagendorph Memorial Art Gallery, when a new wing was dedicated to beaTrix's husband, Robb Sagendorph, founder and publisher of Yankee magazine.
The current gallery, which opened November 1993 to its first exhibit, a retrospective of works by Jules Olitski, continues to fulfill its original mission - to encourage a broader and deeper appreciation of the visual arts.
Guided gallery tours are offered. All exhibits, receptions, and programs are free and open to the public.

Hey all, I've been reading for about a year. I finally broke down and bought myself a Millermatic 175, and Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 38 Plasma Cutter.
I am a hobbiest, and enjoy tinkering with all different sorts of projects. Some of you projects have been inspiring, especially the welding carts. I just got mine about half completed. I went down and bought a 4x8 sheet of 1/2 plate, got it home and didn't know how I was going to get it out of the truck. But after a few pipe wrenches and pry bars, i got it out and set on the top of the cart. I'm telling you, that is not no light peice of steel. Its a good thing i'm done having kids. Anyway, its good to be part of the group now..

Student Learning Outcomes
Systems Thinking: Students are competent in the analysis of complex systems, integrating societal, environmental and economic perspectives. Students reflect systems thinking in a deepening understanding of complexity, holistic approaches, and how the parts relate to the whole.
Experimentation and Inquiry: Students formulate questions, investigate current knowledge gaps, develop sound research design, learn current research methods and perspectives, experiment with new approaches to scientific inquiry, and integrate scientific and practical knowledge.
Interpersonal Communication: Students work in collaborative teams, present information for varied contexts and audiences, negotiate approaches and viewpoints and take leadership roles on important issues.
Understanding Values: Students reflect critically on their own values and examine different paradigms and perspectives, seeing beyond objective data to understand how values shape commerce, research, policy and action in sustainable agriculture and food systems.
Strategic Management: Students work to collectively design and implement interventions, anticipating future scenarios and adaptively managing information, human and natural resources for maximum impact.
Civic Engagement: Students work to make a difference in the civic life of their communities, through both political and non-political processes. As part of a larger social fabric, students consider social problems to be at least partly their own; make and justify informed judgments; and take action when appropriate.
Personal Development: Students seek deeper understanding of their own and thinking and learning processes. They can tolerate ambiguity, respecting those with differing opinions and beliefs, while setting firm standards for behavior and holding themselves and others accountable. Students work to promote open expression of individuality and diversity within the bounds of courtesy, sensitivity and respect.
Guiding Principles
The major includes several innovative features designed to help students acquire the knowledge, skills, and understanding need to develop and work in more ecologically, economically and socially viable food and farming systems.
These include:
- Interdisciplinary Breadth: Integrating natural and social science knowledge and skills
- Systems Thinking: Understanding connections among diverse components of farming and food systems, social institutions, and the environment.
- Skill Development: Gaining practical skills including communication, analysis, problem solving, critical thinking, teamwork and leadership
- Experiential Learning: Engaging in wide range of practical experiences in agricultural and food systems through laboratories, field exercises, internships and other means.

Curriculum Design
The major is designed to help students gain a diversity of knowledge, skills and experiences using traditional and nontraditional teaching methods, including hands-on experiential learning techniques. To review the complete set of academic requirements for the major, download the Course Catalog Description.
All students will take courses in a broad range of disciplines grounded in agricultural science, but each will focus their studies within one of three tracks: agriculture and ecology, food and society, or economics and policy.
The curriculum is built around a number of common preparatory core courses, which allow students to develop a shared knowledge base and social network. They are:
- Introduction to Sustainable Agriculture (PLS 15)
- Food Systems (CRD 20)
- Sustainability and Agroecosystem Management (PLS 150)
- Economics of Agricultural Sustainability (ARE 121)
- Capstone: Workshop on Food System Sustainability (ESP 191a, b)
The preparatory classes in each track provide basic disciplinary training in agricultural, environmental, and social sciences. In upper division classes students can choose from several areas of specialization.
The major emphasizes development of practical skills that can be applied to a wide range of career opportunities in agriculture and food systems. All students will have direct experiences in food production activities through the applied production courses and through avenues such as internships.
Student internships will focus on off-campus experiences within diverse segments of agriculture and food systems. This may include working on farms or in food businesses, with government agencies or non-profit organizations.

June 18, 2006 - Final Score Heat 101 Mavericks
A Panoramic View in Miami, Florida - The Rob Arra
The series may have ended after a Game 6 victory in Dallas.
However, true basketball fans know that the 2006 NBA Championship was really
won in Game 5! In front of a raucus crowd of nail-biting fans at the American
Airlines Arena, the Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat fought one of the most
exciting, tightly-played games in NBA Finals history, for the privilege
of taking a 3-2 series lead and getting to within one win of a first-ever
NBA championship. With less than 10 seconds left in the game, Dirk Nowitzki
hit a jumper over Shaquille O'Neal to give Dallas a one-point lead. Then,
after a brilliant solo effort, Dwyane Wade took to the foul line with 1.9
seconds left. After hitting the first free throw, the crowd was ready to
erupt in joy. With tension so thick you could cut it with a knife...SNAP!
The moment is preserved for all-time, and is now available for your wall!
As we all know, Wade did nail that second free-throw,
and the Heat sealed the match. What a night it was to be a Miami basketball
fan! To commemorate the game, the arena, and the historic 2006 NBA Champions,
photographer Rob Arra has released this spectacular panoramic print for
your wall and your collection. This huge print featues an inside view of
the arena during the big game, and as you pan across the image you can
see it all: the banners in the rafters, the white-clad fans in the stands,
the magnificent scoreboard display, and the action on the court below that
includes stars Nowitzki, O'Neal, Wade, Antoine Walker, and others at a
key moment of the game. Printed on high-quality gallery stock, and complete
with slick white-bordered design that includes the above commemorative
caption and the final scores of all six games, this is both a beautiful
piece for the wall of home or office, and a valuable collector's item for
years to come. Whether you are a die-hard Heat enthusiast, a season's ticket
holder, a Mavericks fan who always wants to be reminded of what might have
been, or simply a basketball collector and fanatic, this is the ultimate
addition to your wall! Perfect for a nice frame and a prominent place at
home or office.

Preventing Exposure to PCBs in Caulking Material
PCBs are found in high levels in building caulk
Caulk containing high levels of PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) has been found in many schools and other buildings built or remodeled before 1979. Because PCBs can migrate from the caulk into air, dust, surrounding building materials, and soil, EPA is concerned about potential PCB exposure to building occupants.
Health impacts of PCB exposure
PCBs are man-made toxic chemicals that persist in the environment and bioaccumulate in animals and humans. PCBs were manufactured in the United States between 1950 and 1979, before their manufacture was banned by Congress due to concerns about their potential for adverse effects on human health and the environment. Exposure to PCBs can affect the immune system, reproductive system, nervous system, and endocrine system. In humans, PCBs are potentially cancer-causing.
Protect children and other building occupants
An important step to protect children and other building occupants is to minimize the potential for PCBs to be present in the indoor air. Indoor air levels of PCBs within a school can be reduced by ensuring that the ventilation system is operating as designed, and to repair or improve the system if it is not.
The following additional steps described below can help reduce exposure to PCBs in caulk until it can be removed.
- Clean frequently to reduce dust and residue inside buildings.
- Use a wet or damp cloth or mop to clean surfaces.
- Use vacuums with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters.
- Do not sweep with dry brooms and minimize the use of dusters.
- Wash hands with soap and water after cleaning and before eating or drinking.
Test for PCBs in buildings built between 1950 and 1979
If school administrators and building owners are concerned about exposure to PCBs and wish to supplement these steps, EPA recommends testing to determine if PCB levels in the air exceed EPA's suggested public health levels. If testing reveals PCB levels above these levels, schools should attempt to identify any potential sources of PCBs that may be present in the building, including testing samples of caulk and other building materials (e.g., paints, floor and ceiling tiles) and looking for other potential PCB sources (e.g., old transformers, capacitors, or fluorescent light ballasts that might still be present at the school).
If elevated air levels of PCBs are found, schools should also have the ventilation system evaluated to determine if it is contaminated with PCBs. Although the ventilation system is unlikely to be an original source of PCB contamination, it may have been contaminated before other sources of PCB's were removed from the school and may be contributing to elevated air levels. Contaminated ventilation systems should be carefully cleaned. Ideally, such cleaning should be planned in concert with removal of any sources of PCBs that are found to avoid re-contamination of the system.
During the search for potential sources, schools should be especially vigilant in implementing practices to minimize exposures and should retest to determine whether those practices are reducing PCB air levels. EPA will assist in developing a plan to reduce exposure and manage the caulk. Your EPA regional EPA PCB Regional Coordinator can direct you to a PCB testing lab.
PCBs were not added to caulk after 1979. Therefore, in general, schools built after 1979 are not likely to contain PCBs in caulk.
Avoid exposure to PCBs in building caulk
PCBs may be released to air from intact, undisturbed caulk through off-gassing, and people may inhale the released PCBs. The condition of the caulk is not an indicator of the presence of PCBs. The only way to be sure that caulk has PCBs is to have a professional test the caulk.
In addition to inhalation from PCBs in the air or dust, exposure may occur when a person comes in contact with the caulk and any surrounding materials into which the PCBs may have been released (e.g., brick, concrete, wood). Exposure may also occur through contact with PCB-contaminated soil adjacent to buildings. Soil may become contaminated with PCBs when caulk weathers.
Protections during removals, renovations
Schools, building owners, and daycare providers in public and commercial buildings need to follow PCB-safe renovation practices to minimize potential exposures resulting from renovations to workers, teachers, and children.
It is important to manage the removal in a way that minimizes workers' exposure to the PCBs (e.g., use protective clothing such as facemasks, gloves, etc.) and prevents the release of PCBs into the environment. The work practices described below can help reduce exposure to PCBs in caulk until it can be removed.
In addition to the safeguards mentioned above:
- Wear appropriate protective clothing when conducting cleanup activities.
- Dispose of all cleanup materials (mops, rags, filters, water, etc.) in accordance with all federal, state, and county regulations.
- For caulk used on windows, walls, columns, and other vertical structures that people may come into contact with, use heavy-duty plastic and tape to contain the area so that caulk or dust and debris from the surrounding masonry do not escape. The plastic should cover the caulk and surrounding areas of masonry.
EPA is helping to address the issue of PCBs in caulk
EPA has conducted research on how the public is exposed to PCBs in caulk and on the best approaches for reducing exposure and potential risks associated with PCBs in caulk. Based on EPA's Office of Research and Development's laboratory research, encapsulation was found to be most effective for interior surfaces that contain low levels of PCBs (i.e. several hundred parts per million). Depending on the PCB reduction goal, the performance of the encapsulant, and the conditions of the building, the upper limit of the PCB concentration for successful encapsulation may vary. Therefore, post-encapsulation monitoring is an essential part of the encapsulation process. Building owners should consult EPA's research on this issue for more specifics. Encapsulation may be useful for the reduction of emissions from secondary sources such as contaminated building materials under and around PCB-containing caulk or paint that has been removed. Encapsulation was not found to be effective in reducing emissions from sources that have a high PCB content (for example caulk) for more than a short period of time. Because each site will present unique circumstances, please consult your EPA PCB Regional Coordinator regarding the application of encapsulation measures on a case by case basis.
Where PCBs have been found in caulk, EPA is committed to helping schools and communities enact plans to reduce exposure. Please contact your regional EPA PCB Regional Coordinator for help with assessing contamination and exposure and developing cleanup plans.
EPA is particularly concerned when PCBs are present during renovation or remodeling activities because these activities increase the potential likelihood of exposure.
- Keep people out of areas where renovation or remodeling activities are occurring.
- Promote safe work practices during renovation activities.
- Take actions to safely remove caulk during PCB removal or renovation projects and undertake and complete the work in a timely fashion.
Reducing potential exposures to PCBs from caulk in schools and other buildings
Points to Remember
- EPA is concerned about potential exposure to PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) in caulk found in older schools and buildings. Consider testing for PCBs by having your air monitored or test the caulk.
- Call 1-888-835-5372 or find your EPA PCB Regional Coordinator.
- Talk to your EPA regional PCB coordinator who will provide you with simple actions to take today, and longer term actions for removing the sources of PCBs including developing a cleanup plan.
- Prioritize where you should first concentrate work.
- Implement the plan.
- Retest and monitor for PCBs in the air once removal is complete.

Imagine playing electric football, but this time in a video game. Electric QB puts you behind the line of scrimmage trying to hit your receivers. Power up your arm by holding the left mouse button down. When it's at the right level release the mouse and fire the ball. Don't forget to lead your receiver. You'll get four footballs to complete level. As long as you don't throw any incomplete passes or get sacked you keep all your footballs. You can also earn an extra ball by hitting the bonus receiver. Now get out there and makes some completions!

I think the Fundamentalist idea of God as the architect of the Cosmos is a symptom of out of date Aristotelian, & Newtonian conceptions about the "fully automatic", mechanical theory about the cause & effect nature of the universe; Newton's "billiard ball" concept, if you will.
It's never been a train of thought that has appealed to me. However, I did find enlightening the Eastern ideas that God is not something that is separate from the universe, God's not "building" the universe, as if he's somehow outside of it, or different from it. I also like the Taoist conception of their not being a "billiard ball" cause & effect, mechanical, sort of universe, but rather that these things "arrive mutually". They see the world in the way that Ecologist's do; They realize that it's a system of interrelated components, none of which can survive without the other, "they interdepend, and this total system of interdependence is the Tao".
One other idea I'd like to introduce to people is the Hindu concept of Brahma.

I joined almost 2 years ago, but I had never done an Introduce Yourself until I wrote what's below for another forum several months ago. Anyway, my Gearhead CV is:
As a kid, I watched eventual 2-time Indy winner Gordon Johncock drive supermodifieds at my hometown track before he got to the big time. Other notables at the time were Dick Good, Gordon Dukes and Johnny White who was to become the ROTY at IMS a few weeks before a career-ending sprint car crash. The '73 USAC Sprint Car Champion was from my home town and our local track was a frequent stop for USAC (still is). Watched the Gary and Larry Show many times, along with Pancho, Tom Biegelow, Bill Puterbaugh and others. I saw George Follmer in the '72 Porsche 917-10 battle Dark Monohue in the '73 Porsche 917-30/KL at the '73 Mid-Ohio Can-Am. Saw Thunder on the Maumee with unlimited hydroplanes in '73 followed by the Formula 1 hydroplanes. I was at the first Michigan 500 at MIS in '81 when they tried to burn down the pits. Camel GT Series at Charlotte in '85 and Columbus in '86 and '87. Watched John Paul Jr. in a Conte Bros. March Buick turbo T-Bone Bob Akin in a 962 at Charlotte. Scary Stuff. I stood next to Geoff Brabham as he was strapping into the Nissan GTP ZX-T at Columbus. Amazing standing next to a 1,000hp engine idling like a VW Beetle. Saw all of the F-1 and CART races run in downtown Detroit around the Renaissance Center. The Turbo Era in F-1 was AMAZING. Saw Harry Gant pass Brad Teague on the next to the last lap for the Busch win at Darlington '87. Saw Mel Kenyon flip a midget at the now defunct Santa Fe Speedway ('89 I think). Saw all 3 of Mark Martin's wins at The Glen. Saw Mike Skinner win the first NCTS race at the '95 Copper World Classic. Other winners were midgets-Dan Drinan, Silver Crown-Mike Bliss, Southwest Tour-Ron Hornaday and supermodified-Davey Hamilton. WoO at Syracuse in '95 (Steve Kinser). Saw Max Papis in '96 come from nearly a lap down to win the Watking Glen 6-Hour in Dr. Moretti's 333-SP. GREAT sounding car!! CART at Long Beach in '01. Saw The Cruzer at Ventura in '02. All Feature card at Irwindale in '03. Sad that it is now closed; Very Good venue. SuperDirt Week at Syracuse '95, '02 and '03. Saw JJ Yeley win Silver Crown races at Syracuse in '02 and '03. Saw Scott Dixon's and Justin Wilson's wins at The Glen. Unfortunately not a lot recently as I have been working outside of the country mostly from '04 to '11. So far, the only events that I have not witnessed in person are motorcycle racing (any kind: flat track, Moto GP, motocross), drag racing, airplane racing.

This game is what it is a game between a team that is 3-6 and 4-5 and both are division rivals. It means more for Miami, period. Miami has a chance to drive a stake into a division rival and get themselves back to .500 and at least have an outside shot at something. The ball is in their court, if they lose good luck even getting to .500 on the year, if they win a tough game in a tough situation it tells me a lot about the character of the team.
"Frank's Redhot - I Put That **** On Everything!" ~ Ethel
It's gonna be tough but we can win.
It's going to be ugly... doom and gloom...
Ye of little faith. I expect the team to bounce back well after last week's debacle. This is a great opportunity for Joe Philbin to show how he can motivate the team after a bad game. A test of character.
I'm worried.
That was a sobering, deflating loss last week. This is a short week and we're on the road against and offense that can move the ball. I'm just getting the "honeymoon is over" stench coming from this team right now and that we still have a ways to go to fill needs.

JVCC DC-1109R/P Double Coated Removable/Permanent Tape is a clear polyester film differentially coated with a removable (low tack) and permanent (high tack) synthetic rubber adhesive system. The liner side (the tape exposed once you remove the liner) is coated with a controlled low tack, highly removable clear adhesive system which exhibits moderate adhesion to a variety of surfaces, but has excellent removability. The exposed side (the tape visible once you unwind it from the roll) is coated with an aggressive, high tack, clear synthetic copolymer adhesive which forms a long-term bond immediately upon contact. JVCC DC-1109R/P double-sided removable/permanent tape complies with the FDA Code of Regulations Title 21, Part 175, Subpart B, Section 175.105 which covers the use of adhesive tapes for indirect food contact.
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.

These are by a French Canadian photographic artist, Denis Collette. I lovehis use of color, and his approach to his art. He photographs the area surrounding his home, then uses the photographs as inspiration for these impressionistic creations.
Inner Light End of Autumn Ordinary Miracles The Blue Spirit of Giverny
"First, the majority of my pictures are taken on my homeland… I use a similar approach as Thoreau… For me, photography is a metaphysical approach… I don't decide on subjects… it's the light who decides… and when my heart says… 'OK Woodsman'… I shoot!!! :))"-Link to an interview with Denis Collette-
"A northeaster (nor'easter) is a winter storm that forms in the mid-latitudes between the months of September and April. Nor'easters travel northward in the Atlantic Ocean, with winds blowing towards the shore along the eastern United States and Canadian coastlines. Because of the cyclonic nature of the storm system, the winds blow in a northeastward direction, affecting long reaches of the coastline while the storm is still far to the south. Nor'easters tend to be very large and move slowly, generating high waves that attack the shoreline for long periods of time. The onshore directed winds accentuate the incoming tide, while confining the excess water at the shoreline during a low tide stage. Because nor'easters move slowly, several tidal cycles can be affected, creating a large coastal storm surge."
A nor'easter blew thru several days ago. We didn't get the worst of it in NJ, but it was a pretty dramatic storm. I couldn't resist going to see the ocean. It was churned up & lashing the shore...
The wind had been really strong the nite before. A couple of feet of sand accumulated in some places on the boardwalk...
Big chunks of this old pier broke off & washed up on the shore...
There can be a fine line between having an ocean view & being part of the ocean...
Every time a nor'easter blows thru the coastline changes as the ocean claims the land..
No matter what the weather there are surfers who'll go out...
..and crazy fishermen!
I'm going on a date next week. My first since age 19 hahaha. This is a mighty strange feeling. Just the thought of it is cracking me up. And kinda scaring me. I'm looking forward to it tho. I think.

Peter Pan's Shadow
"I wasn't crying about mothers," Peter said rather indignantly. "I was crying because I can't get my shadow to stick on. Besides, I wasn't crying."
"It has come off?" "Yes."
Then Wendy saw the shadow on the floor, looking so draggled, and she was frightfully sorry for Peter. "How awful!" she said, but she could not help smiling when she saw that he had been trying to stick it on with soap. How exactly like a boy!
Fortunately she knew at once what to do. "It must be sewn on," she said..."
Some shadow photos I found on flickr.com. : )
We are imperfect shadows. We are thoughts of an absent-minded god...
Can't recall where I found this one, saved it awhile ago & just found it again..
I did a couple of manga images of Ben & sent them to him. It's amusing trying to figure out the shape of the face, what features to use etc. Here he is at a family party with one of his cousins. Their friend popped out from behind just as the pic was taken, that's why he looks so maniacal & pleased with himself haha.
Here he is all grumpy after a long day's night.
Later that day lol.
Do you think it's a likeness? I think so, but then again I'm the one who did it haha. Ah, well. What can I say, I'm easily amused. : )

text: Yo CK... for some reason i remember you mentioning jake knott for us in the fourth round. It was quite awhile ago, clear back when we were still talking about having a shot at bjoern werner.... why have you soured on him now to the point of udfa???Interesting that Caleb Sturgis is becoming a popular idea.I'm glad that mocks are taking account of FA first because it would be useless to speculate without that. I'm a little mixed though on just picking who we sign, re-sign, etc...because in many ways that can be out of your hands sometimes.Like right now Sean Smith seems like he wants to leave town. If that's the case you've got to focus on Brent Grimes, Chris Houston, Cary Williams, Derek Cox or Keenan Lewis...most likely. Since Jeff Ireland likes big corners he'd probably steer toward Cary Williams or Keenan Lewis...maybe Derek Cox. But do any of those guys even want to come to Miami? I would love to give Shawntae Spencer a sniff as a value free agent, incidentally.Who knows what is going on with Randy Starks. I'd love to have him back. Jake Long is hard to figure out too. Reggie Bush isn't going to be back whether we want him to be or not. Nor Anthony Fasano or Tony McDaniel. And Richard Marshall is likely to be cut.I consider the Dolphins to have $43 million to play around with, after Marshall is cut and setting aside money for draft picks. I think we've got out hands on price of admission for Sean Smith and Jake Long. Total of $17 million for those two together. I can't help but think you can get Randy Starks back for $6 million, and I'd be surprised if you had to pay much more than $7 million for Greg Jennings. So slap those two together at $14 million total. You've still got $12 million to play around with but you've also got holes. You grab Antwaan Barnes, Shawntae Spencer and Mike Goodson for a total of about $5 million...just some value guys that make sense to me. With the remaining $7 million you could look at trying to pull in both Kenny Phillips and Martellus Bennett from the Giants. If you need a little bit more money, you can easily massage some of these first year numbers. In fact, all told you'd probably have about $3 million left over from all this to work with for emergency situations.That leaves you with significant openings at WR and CB, but leaves you with some "wants" at RB, OG, QB, DE, LB and K. With that in mind, you can take:R01. WR Cordarrelle Patterson, TennesseeR2A. DE Cornellius "Tank" Carridine, Florida StateR2B. CB Robert Alford, Southeastern LouisianaR3A. OG Brian Winters, Kent StateR3B. RB Christine Michael, Texas A&MR4A. OT Terron Armstead, Arkansas-Pine BluffR4B. DE Devin Taylor, South Carolina*R05. TE Joseph Fauria, UCLAR7A. LB Vince Williams, Florida StateR7B. CB Kayvon Webster, South Florida*Compensatory SelectionUDFA: QB Nick Florence (Baylor), RB Dennis Johnson (Arkansas), WR Jheranie Boyd (North Carolina), WR Chad Bumphis (Mississippi State), TE Justice Cunningham (South Carolina), OC James Ferentz (Iowa), G/T Mark Popek (South Florida), DE Damion Square (Alabama), LB Jake Knott (Iowa State), CB D.J.

As much as we LOVE our own particular daily grinds, having to go to work every single day, week in and week out, can occasionally feel a bit challenging. Yes, even your dream job, on a rough day, can feel like a struggle.
We all have our ruts, those deep valleys of boredom when the world just feels dull. Meetings feel longer, mornings feel harder, and putting out all of the mini fires that pop up during the day starts to take its toll. And since we — much like most of you — spend the majority of our time at the office, we figure we need to make the most of it. After all, we don't want seasonal fatigue to force us into a crabby, cranky place, for the bulk of every day.
So, we're making a change. We're brightening up, shaking off any tugs of ennui, and learning how to be happier — particularly at work. To make it happen, we looked to some of our favorite, most inspiring professionals, from editors and directors to tech superstars and A&R types, and picked their brains. Ahead, the secrets to happiness at work. Whether you mostly love your job or are actively looking for a new one, these tips and tricks should make your daily grind just a bit more fun.

Monday Lecture Series Presents: Christopher Allard '04
Metal Shark Boats: A Case Study in Entrepreneurship and the Business of Naval Architecture
Each week, Webbies flock to the auditorium for the Monday Lecture Series on topics ranging from offshore structures to sail designs. Recently, Mr. Christopher Allard '04 presented his experiences in a lecture entitled "Metal Shark Boats: A Case Study in Entrepreneurship and the Business of Naval Architecture."
While many Webb graduates go on to own and run successful businesses, Mr. Allard's career was fast tracked when he became president of Metal Shark Boats at the age of 24. "We bought the company for $9000 at a time on royalties … totaling $1 million," Mr. Allard noted. Since then, Metal Shark has grown into a strong business with a team of engineers (mostly Webbies!) supporting new design and construction projects. In 2011, the U.S. Coast Guard awarded Metal Shark a $192 million contract to replace the existing Response Boat Small fleet – an order of almost 500 boats, the largest ever boat buy for the USCG.
Mr. Allard gave us a wakeup call: approximately half of Webbies end up in small businesses worldwide. Using his experience as President of Metal Shark, Mr. Allard took business terms, a relatively unknown language to many students, and translated them into the engineer-speak that we could easily grasp. Terms like revenue, cost effectiveness, and engineering cost effectiveness became more tangible. He explained the importance of engineering for cost and value and balancing design man-hours with production man-hours.
Every day at Webb is constant preparation for life after graduation; everything is geared towards being professional. Sometimes, though, we can lose sight of the big picture under the daily grind of assignments. Mr. Allard offered this advice, "Do what you love to do because it will make the hard work easier."
