MANUFACTURE OF ELECTRIC CABLES Filed Oct. '7, 1958 J 131-111 E-E1wa11mw Mi 12112151 W 1 21717111 Patented June 18, 1940 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE MANUFACTURE OF ELEQTRIC CABLES Application October '7,
1938, Serial No. 233,874
In Great Britain October 14, 1937 3 Claims.
This invention relates to the manufacture of cables adapted to carry electrical impulses of high frequency, i. e., at least 1000 cycles per second, and in particular to cables for use at frequencies 5 of cycles and upwards, e. g., such cables as are used in short-wave television and telephony circuits, where high frequencies up to 10 or 10 cycles per second may be encountered. It is known to construct such cables in the form of an inner conductor located inside and air-insulated from an outer co-axial conductor, supporting pieces or spacers of suitable insulating ma terial being disposed at intervals to maintain the inner conductor in a central position. The attenuation losses for cables of given dimensions depend mainly upon the electrical properties of the insulating spacers.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide an electric cable adapted for the carrying of electrical impulses of high frequency up to 10 or 10 cycles per second, in which the attenuation losses are made smaller as compared with those of known cables of the same type. A further object is to provide a cable of the above type which will be more durable and more robust. A still further object is to devise methods of manufacturing such cables. Further objects will appear hereinafter. These objects are accomplished by the following invention.
We have found that we can make a cable for transmitting high frequency impulses if the cable comprises two co-axial conductors, the inner one of which is maintained in position by means of insulating material which occupies a portion of the annular space, the insulating material essentially consisting of normally solid polymer of ethylene such as is obtained by subjecting ethylene, with or without a small content of oxygen, to very high pressure and moderately elevated temperature under controlled reaction conditions, as described in U. S. Patent Nos. 2,153,553 and 2,188,465.
The accompanying drawing illustrates three methods of building up cables according to the invention, which is not limited to the embodiments illustrated.
Figure I illustrates a cross-section of a cable at right angles to the length of the cable, showing a spacer in position.
Figure II is a cross-section along the length of the cable shown in Figure I.
Figure III is a perspective sketch of a piece of a cable having part of the cover and part of the spacer cut away to show the construction.
Figure IV represents a side elevation of another form of cable in which the outer cover has been removed to show the inner conductor and the spacers.
Referring to Figures I and II, i is a copper conductor approximately 1/10 inch thick, 2 is a sheath also of copper having an inside diameter of approximately inch, while 3, 3 are the spacers of polymerised ethylene fitting closely against the sheath 2 and carrying the conductor l in its centre.
The spacers 3 are most easily made by injection moulding a normally solid ethylene polymer of a molecular weight of from 4000-24900. For assembly they are threaded out to the inner conductor 1 and then forced down the outer sheath 2 until they are in positions a convenient distance apart. If desired the outer conductor may be slightly compressed after the inner conductcr and spacers are in position so that the supports are firmly gripped.
In Figure III, I is again the inner conductor, 2 the outer sheath and 3 the polymerised ethylene spacer. In this cable the spacer is continuous running the full length of the cable and is roughly of star shaped cross-section, the conductor I running through the centre of the star and the points pressing on the outer conductor 2.
This spacer can conveniently be made by drawing the inner conductor I through the nozzle of an extruder which is extruding the polymerised ethylene, the nozzle being shaped to give the star shaped cross-section.
In Figure IV, i, 2 and 3 stand, as before, for the inner and outer conductors and the spacer respectively, the spacer in this case being made up of cold drawn threads of solid ethylene polymer woven into a cord which is wound in a helix, and then the helix is wound round the inner conductor and then both placed inside the outer conductor. (The manufacture of the cold drawn threads is described in copending application Serial No. 130,416 filed March 11, 1937.) Alternatively, tapes or ribbons of suitable thickness, made of normally solid ethylene polymers may be wound in an open helix around the inner conductor. (The manufacture of such tapes or ribbons is described and claimed in co-pending application Serial No. 138,266 filed April 21, 1937.)
Instead of the copper used for the conductors we could have used any other electrical conductor. We may use polymers having a molecular weight of at least 4000 but we prefer to use poly mers of molecular weight 10,000 to 30,000 or even higher. Generally, the higher the molecular 55 weight, the better the mechanical properties of the polymer.
Instead of making the spacers used in Figure I by injection moulding, they could have been made by compression moulding or by stamping out of a sheet of normally solid polymer of ethylene.
The molecular Weights mentioned herein were obtained by the method devised by H. Staudinger (see Berichte der deutschen chemischen Ges. 1934, 67B, 1247 et seq.), this method being based upon the measurement of the viscosity of a solution of the polymer in a solvent (tetrahydronaphthalene). As this method may not be susceptible of a high degree of accuracy, the values given in this specification should in all cases be regarded as approximate.
This invention is a valuable advance in the art as these polymers of ethylene are characterized by high strength, flexibility (attained without the incorporation of plasticizers), high insulation value and extremely low dielectric power loss. Further, the polymers are practically nonabsorptive to moisture and are chemically inert and very stable. The dielectric constant (about 2.2) and the power factor (about 0.001), moreover, are substantially independent of frequency over a range of about 50 to 10 cycles per second, and of temperature (up to the softening point of the polymer). The combination of these physical, chemical and electrical properties makes it possible to produce robust and durable cables which have very low attenuation losses. The number of amplification stages required in a high frequency transmission line may therefore be reduced by employing our improved cable.
A further valuable advantage of the high frequency cable described herein resides in the remarkably low temperature susceptibility of the ethylene polymer insulation between the conductor and cable shell. The flexibility of the polymer at low temperatures, as for instance C. or lower, is substantially the same as the flexibility at normal or room temperatures.
As far as we are aware the favourable combination of physical, chemical and electrical properties, which makes normally solid polymers of ethylene so suitable for the purpose described, is not found in any other single known insulating material. The insulating material most nearly approaching the electrical properties of the solid polymers of ethylene is polystyrene, but this material lacks flexibility, and must be specially treated or used with a plasticiser in order to make it sufficiently flexible for practical purposes. The incorporation of a plasticiser, however, may impair the electrical properties of the material or may render the material less stable because of the tendency of the plasticiser to evaporate or separate out. Further the use of plasticisers reduces the softening temperature of the material.
The solid ethylene polymers employed according to this invention possess a high molecular weight ranging from about 4,000 upwards to 30,000 or even higher and a chemical constitution essentially corresponding to a homologue and true polymer of ethylene-(CHz)1except insofar as they may contain a small amount of oxygen. These polymers by X-ray diffraction analysis show a crystalline structure. They melt or soften at around 110-120 C to a very viscous liquid and are fairly soluble in a number of organic solvents in the hot, though only sparingly so in the cold. They may be made by subjecting ethylene, with or without a small content of oxygen, to very high pressure and moderately elevated temperature under controlled reaction conditions, as described in U. S. Patents Nos.
to the specific embodiments thereof, except as defined in the appended claims.
We claim:
1. An electrical cable for transmitting high frequency impulses, comprising two co-axial conductors, the inner one of which is maintained in position by means of insulating material which occupies a portion of the annular space and which is flexible, chemically inert, has at high frequencies low attentuation and low dielectric power loss, a dielectric constant substantially independent of frequency and of temperature up to the softening point of said insulating material over a range of about 50 to 10 cycles per second, and which has a flexibility at low temperatures substantially the same as that for normal temperatures, said insulating material consisting esscntially of normally solid polymer of ethylene which corresponds in,composition substantially to (CH2) 1:, and which by X-ray diffraction analysis shows a crystalline structure.
2. An electric cable according to claim 1, in which the polymer has a molecular weight of at least 4,000.
3. An electric cable according to claim 1, in which the polymer has a molecular weight of between 10,000 and 30,000.

Re: What the anonymous coward said
I am sure if someone offered to backport (or pay someone to backport it) the fix to traditional, it would still be accepted, though. Same goes for the development of any missing functionality in xl. My experience of the Xen custodians is that if someone puts forward something with merit and is prepared to write it, then they will include it.

interesting difficult game...... i wonder if babies REALLY DO dream of this....that would be a little weird....anyways great game :)
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Pretty Storyline
The gameplay is fun and all...but the storyline makes me so sad and emotional because you get really attached to the different characters. Also the fact that your thinking of how everything there is destroyed and never remembered sorta makes it sadder...I wonder what babies really dream of?
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Honestly, this 8-bit game has got me dreaming too! Fantastic! :)
Rated 2 / 5 stars
uhhh im confussed...
I didnt get far in the game... cuz ii got stuck D; . its a great game though , it makes me think twice about babies...
Rated 5 / 5 stars
It has crossed my mind what babies dream of. Good game!

NYU history professor wins Liberty PrizeHistorians in the News
NYU Russian history and politics professor Stephen Cohen visited Russia on a whim. After taking a year to study at Birmingham University in England, Cohen decided to stretch out his time abroad and found himself in Russia.
This month, over 50 years after his first visit, Cohen was awarded the 2011 Liberty Prize for his work advancing cultural bonds between the United States and Russia.
"It was an award that brought together the two countries that have shaped my entire adult life, so because it was an American-Russian award, it really was special for me," Cohen said.
The Liberty Prize is sponsored by the publisher Kontinent USA and the American University in Moscow. Every year, the jury selects individuals who have brought awareness and interest to Russian affairs....

If you don't have employer-sponsored health insurance and you can't afford private insurance, you aren't totally out of luck. There are a variety of options for receiving preventative care, sick care and medications that can help keep you healthy without making you bankrupt.
State health departments and public health centers are often an affordable source of basic healthcare needs such as immunizations, family planning, women's health, children's health and STD testing. Some even offer more advanced services like cancer screening and treatment.
The New York State Department of Health, for example, offers HIV testing and anonymous counseling as well as a variety of health insurance programs for people who may not be able to afford care, such as pregnant mothers, children and the elderly. Some states even offer services you might not expect - for example, the Texas Department of State Health Services offers hemophilia assistance and epilepsy services. (Getting your own policy isn't easy or cheap but in some cases, it's well worth the effort, read Buying Private Health Insurance.)
Some Conditions May Apply
Some states' public health services are only available to low-income individuals and families, either at no charge or on a sliding fee scale, but others are available to everyone for a reasonable flat fee. Services and fees vary by state.
Drugstore clinics provide an array of basic health services such as cholesterol screening, smoking cessation and TB testing, and treat common ailments like ear infections, strep throat and skin rashes.
Prices are meant to be affordable (Wal-Mart's (NYSE:WMT) clinic states that the average visit costs a patient $65 or less) and many of these clinics are open seven days a week to both the insured and uninsured with no appointment required for many services. Also, unlike many doctors' offices, a list of all services offered, with pricing, is readily available up front, often through the drugstore's website.
These clinics may be staffed by nurse practitioners and/or physician's assistants, so if you need an experienced doctor, store clinics may not be your best bet, but for basic services, they can work out well.
Prescription Discounts
Prescription discount programs can save you money on medication. Quite a few pharmacies now offer such programs. Rite Aid's prescription discount program offers over 500 generic medications at a cost of $8.99 for a 30-day supply or $15.99 for a 90-day supply. Wal-Mart's popular program offers a 30-day supply for $4 or a 90-day supply for $10, of over 1,000 common over-the-counter drugs and several hundred generic prescription drugs at common dosages.
Cash-strapped patients who have expensive prescriptions not covered by these programs should discuss their options with their doctors.
Price research on doctor's office services can also help reduce medical bills. Though doctors don't commonly advertise their fees, they should have a list of prices from which they can estimate the total cost of your visit in advance based on the services you're likely to need. Fees for the same services can vary considerably by provider and by location. If you live in the middle of a major metropolitan area, you may find that prices are lower in the outlying suburbs. It's also worth asking if the doctor offers a discount if you pay in full and in cash at the time you receive treatment. (Learn more in our Health Insurance Tutorial.)
While you should never sacrifice obtaining quality healthcare just to save a buck, and these options often don't provide coverage that's as comprehensive as that provided by insurance, these reduced-cost choices may serve you better than going without treatment altogether and can help you get by until your situation improves.

A captivating romance from the New York Times best-selling author of Remembrance.
Deveraux transports us from modern-day Virginia to the high mountain deserts of 1873 Colorado, with a vibrant new tale about a feisty lady and the man she was meant to love.
Petite Kady Long, a celebrated chef about to be married to a gorgeous man, felt she was the luckiest woman alive. But when she tried on an antique satin wedding dress, she was overcome with dizziness.
When she opened her eyes, Kady was in the harsh, sunlit landscape of 1873 Legend, Colorado. There, she meets Cole Jordan, a tall, rangy, and very appealing man. But while Kady is anxious to return to her time, Cole has other ideas...i deas that could give him and the inhabitants of Legend what they so desperately need - a future.

I love being swept away by a new romance and thankfully Audible's ever growing Library means I get to indulge myself over and over again
This is the first time I have been compelled to write a review because I loved this audio book so much. It was funny, romantic and sad and it left me completely drained. I listened to it virtually non-stop because I had to know the ending. This is the first, but not the last, Jude Deveraux book iv'e listened to and I'm looking forward to listening to many more. I have eclectic taste in books, from Christine Feehan, Christina Dodd, Brenda Joyce, Megan Hart, Nora Roberts,Kerrelyn Sparks and Johanna Lindsey.
In my opinion, this book is well worth the credit.
"It was okay."
I have this in hardcover -- I bought it and read it when it first came out. I loved the story just as much as then, but wasn't thrilled with the narrator. I envisioned 30 year old Katie with a younger, perkier, more innocent sounding voice. While C.J. Critt does a great job, her voice just sounds far too old and too refined, like some glamorous movie star from the 40s or something. It just didn't fit the character. Therefore, I didn't like the audio as much.
"Not worth the read or the listen."
Not likely
Most of them.
The story is juvenile, not true to the periods (clash of language and slang). The dialog is just plain stupid. The story drags on and on and really didn't make me want to rush to my car to listen every commute. The performance is weak. The narrator doesn't have a good command of male vs. female voices and Cole sounded like a light footed, limp wristed wimp.
This is the second Jude Deveraux book I have purchased on Audio. Did not enjoy this one compared to Days of Gold. Quality of the download was poor, first time I have ever gotten background noice on the audio. I have a libray of over 20 books and do not have this issue with any other book. Was distracted by the narrator of the book and I felt it took a long time to develop the story.
"I loved this book!"
I have listened to it 3 times already! loved the story and loved the characters!
"Great "historical romance""
Fun and entertaining time travel love story. Good reader and light reading! Perfect reading
for the
beach or traveling, chick lit!
I loved being catapulted into the lives of well developed characters. A deft touch of time traveling and captivating storyline. A gifted writer has presented us with another magical book. Thanks, Jude!
"Love the book, hate the reader"
I read every Jude Deveraux book, but the way the narrator/reader whatever they're called read the book it was obnoxious and took away from the story. I've read this book before and have pictured the main character as a mid 20's a little shy about her size but outspoken in the kitchen character with a sweet voice. The narrator sounds like she's a smoker in her mid 40's.
I love Coles adorable charm.
Have a different reader whose voice fits better to the character.
None, the book is perfect.
I won't be buying any audiobooks with the same reader.
reviews for fun
"I do not recommend this book"
This book bordered on the rediculous. Time travel on steroids. I found it very boring.

Data Center
A key component of Complete Genomics' sequencing center is its data center, purpose-built to manage and analyze the staggering amount of genetic data that will be generated by sequencing thousands of human genomes. Because the data generated by a single human genome would fill 1,000 laptop computers, each with 100 GB of disk storage, data management for Complete Genomics' genome center will be a massive undertaking. The company plans to have 10,000 processors with five petabytes (5 million gigabytes) of disk storage in 2009 and will further increase its capacity to 60,000 processors with 30 petabytes of disk storage in 2010. Complete Genomics expects to sequence 200 genomes per day by the end of 2010, making it the world's highest-throughput human genome sequencing center. To put this in context, fewer than 20 complete human genomes have been sequenced in the world to date.
Complete Genomics also is developing sophisticated analysis tools that will help its customers interpret their data. Such tools will allow them to browse data, assemble genomes, annotate and compare genomes, and run association studies.
Growth Potential
"Complete Genomics is a game-changing company with incredible growth potential. Not only has it developed a sequencing technology that will enable it to sell complete human genomes for $5,000, it has also built a scalable services model to accommodate pent-up industry and research demand. And this is just the beginning. Complete Genomics' technology costs will decrease further as the volume of genomes it sequences goes up, providing a durable competitive advantage," said Dr. Alex Barkas, managing director of Prospect Venture Partners as well

That's a good way to look at it, Christopher, but I still find it a pretty unexciting title. I'd imagine that given the phenominal success of

, the studio is very happy that words "Dark Knight" are in the new title. I agree that
Shadow of the Bat

Disappointed that we won't get to see the Riddler in the movie, though. But then, I dressed up as the Riddler last Halloween, so I'm biased.

IOWA CITY — With Iowa running back, there is the obvious and there is the mystery. It was obvious early last season that the Hawkeyes depended on Mark Weisman.
"We're the first to admit he's a comfort zone for us," second-year running backs coach Chris White said. "We feel comfortable there, and all of the sudden, the game is on the line, there's Old Faithful."
The mystery is this season. How is it going to work with Weisman, a 235-pound senior who has 1,790 yards and 16 TDs the last two seasons, with junior Jordan Canzeri, who opened eyes with a late-season surge in 2013, with senior Damon Bullock and sophomore LeShun Daniels?
"We were just talking two days ago how to handle it, how many carries Mark should get early in the season?" White said. "We will not get into a deal where we'll say we'll cut him off at 25. We don't want him to go 40 carries a game."
Iowa is OK on the running back-as-commodity front. Pretty much. Weisman is proven, but has had chunks of seasons take away due to injuries (torn groin, sprained ankle in '12; sprained foot, elbow in '13). Canzeri averaged 6.5 yards a carry, but he had only 74 carries. Bullock has 1,000 career rushing yards. Daniels comes in an intriguing 6-0, 230-pound chassis.
Everyone in on this conversation used the word "rotation." Let's try to stick with that concept for a minute.
The way Iowa used Weisman last season affected him physically. Head coach Kirk Ferentz and White have admitted it wasn't fair to play Weisman when he wasn't able to be physical.
White cited last season's victories over Iowa State and Minnesota. Weisman carried 59 times in those two games for 292 yards. The "security blanket" factor is punctuated by time of possession. Against the Cyclones, Iowa held the ball nearly 17 minutes longer than ISU. Against Minnesota, it was more than 12.
"We rested him and I think he performed well in the last three games, but we wore him out in the Minnesota, Iowa State games," White said. "That was probably our fault, or my fault.
"They couldn't tackle him and that's what he does. You get him into the fourth quarter, their defense is tired and we're just running it down their throat. Our line is coming off the ball and we're running over them. You don't want to take him out."
Weisman is built for what Iowa wants to do and be in the running game. "Just having the ability to run a strong guy up in there, there's some real value in that, too," Ferentz said.
Ferentz joked about having two plays, the inside and outside zone. They have more, of course, but Iowa grinds out all the nuances of both plays in practice.
"No," said offensive tackle Brandon Scherff when asked if he ever got sick and tired of practicing zone plays. "That's what you come here to do, run that zone play. It's a physical play and that's what we like to do at Iowa. We want to be physical against [the defense]. We want to try to move someone against their will and open holes for Mark and Damon and all those guys."
The zone plays are a physical statement, but there's much more to it. Think offensive coordinator Greg Davis blindly calls zone plays to appease his boss? Last season, quarterback Jake Rudock sometimes went to the line of scrimmage with three options for play calls. What the defense does matters. The quarterback's pre-snap read digs into the secondary.
"When we run what we would call an outside zone play, we're looking to attack certain fronts, certain defensive spacing, coverages, all these things that tie together," offensive line coach Brian Ferentz said. "We don't haphazardly run plays and personnel things and things like that. I know sometimes it's a myth or statement ... What we do when we determine how we're going to run plays and attack defenses, there is a lot of thought that goes into that and a lot of it is just structural. How you attack a defense, how you're going to execute your assignments, how you're going to work together, how are you going to create an advantage over the defensive front, those are the questions you have to answer before you decide to run a play."
Weisman is made for the zone grind, but Canzeri (5-9, 192) has earned the coaching staff's trust. That can be traced back to one play against Wisconsin last season. After three quarters of pretty much nothing against the Badgers, Canzeri, after going the three previous games without a carry, broke a 43-yard run.
"It didn't hurt his confidence and it certainly didn't hurt ours," Kirk Ferentz said. "In the Nebraska game, he did some good things there, too. I think he's worked hard and earned our respect."
White said, "He's stronger than you think. He's weightroom strong. Some of those 190-, 195-pound backs with strong legs and upper-body strength, they're more durable than sometimes with Mark, who's taking a pounding. Jordan has the elusiveness where he doesn't take the pounding that Mark does. He knows how to avoid some tackles. We're excited about the change of pace that Jordan can add."
In summary, the mystery remains, but White did put some parameters on what could happen. They know they have Weisman and want him to be a finisher.They've allowed Canzeri into the circle of trust. Bullock remains the third-down back (who also wants to be considered for first and second down). They needed to see Daniels kick into gear this spring.
It's not an easy answer in August. This will be a weekly topic with weekly variables.
"It's our job to 1) incorporate the other backs earlier, get into the fourth and then have a fresh Mark Weisman wearing their butts out," White said. "That's what we hope to do.
"We feel that Jordan can come in right now [snaps fingers] and he's a first- and second-down back. He can take a lot of the carries away from Mark. We have to find out about LeShun. LeShun has got to make a move, and he did in the spring. Same thing with Damon. He wants first- and second-down reps. He is our third-down back. He's got to prove that in this preseason. He did that in the spring. He's made some adjustments to his running style, and that's pleased me."
The running backs have processed the mystery this way: "We're a selfless group and we just really care about winning, getting better as a player and as a team," Weisman said. "The only way to do that is the competition out there and just getting better from it. That's not the Iowa way, to toot your own horn. Give credit to the offensive line when it's due, and it's always due for them, and just try to be the best teammate and running back that you can."
But make no mistake, it is a competition. The four running backs in contention for carries want to be the ones who solve this mystery.
"When we're out on the field, we all compete," Canzeri said. "We're all pushing each other as hard as we possibly can. The competition is there and the persona of saying 'I want the reps' is there, but we're all humble and we're all good with whomever starts."

Stolt-Nielsen S.A. (SNSA) (Oslo Børs: SNI) said that its wholly owned subsidiary Stolt-Nielsen Indian Ocean and Middle East Service Ltd. ("Stolt") has entered into two 50/50 joint ventures with Gulf Navigation PJSC. The first joint venture, Gulf Stolt Tankers FZCO, will own six new 44,000 dwt coated chemical tankers. The ships will be traded in the Stolt Tankers Joint Service (STJS). Technical ship management will be provided by a second joint venture, Gulf Stolt Ship Management JLT, owned by Gulf Navigation and Stolt.
Stolt-Nielsen will take delivery of four of the tankers - ordered in 2006 from SLS Shipbuilding in South Korea - during 2008 and 2009. Gulf Navigation will take delivery of two additional sister ships in 2009, having taken over options previously held by Stolt-Nielsen. One of the four Stolt-Nielsen ships will be sold to Gulf Navigation, who will bareboat charter their three ships to the joint venture to create the 50/50 joint venture comprising the six ships.
Hans P. Feringa, President of Stolt Tankers & Terminals, said, "The Arabian Gulf is the world's fastest growing chemicals-production centre. We are pleased to be expanding Stolt's strategic presence in this key growth market, as well as our relationship with our partner, Gulf Navigation, a leader in shipping and marine services in the Gulf region."
Abdullah Al-Shuraim, the Chairman of Gulf Navigation, said, "Meeting the long-term tonnage requirements of the rapidly growing producers in the Arabian Gulf is a key element of Gulf Navigation's growth strategy. This new structure enhances the scope of our partnership with Stolt and our participation in the STJS."

As the song says "They say lights are brighter on Broadway." Well, several lights have gone from bright, to dimmer, to off, as six businesses on Broadway have closed their doors between 30th and 38th streets. In the last two years, that eight-block area of Quincy has lost Deb Shops, J.C. Penney, Radio Shack, Long John Silver's, TGI Fridays, and now Steak 'n Shake.
With the announcement of the pending closure of the J.C. Penney store, there has been plenty of speculation about who might take over that space in the Quincy Mall. All kinds of names have been talked about, including Target.
County Market's new Harvest Market convenience store is now open for business at 24th and Locust Streets in Quincy.
Two weeks ago it was announced that someone who purchased a lottery ticket at the County Market store at 24th and Spring in Quincy had yet to claim it, and time was running out. Well, the hour glass is about to see the last of the sand to go through it. If that ticket is not claimed and presented to the Illinois Lottery officials by today, the ticket will be just paper with numbers on it. It goes from being worth $275,000 to being worth nothing.
Someone in the Quincy area has possession of a Quick Pick Illinois Lottery ticket worth $275,000 and they probably don't even know it. The ticket was purchased at the County Market at 24th and Spring store in Quincy.
The Illinois Veterans Home Quincy and WGEM-TV announced that the 2014 Fourth of July fireworks celebration will once again be held on the Illinois Veterans Home grounds in 2014. This is the third time in the past four years that the event has taken place there.
The Annual Wild Game Cook Off is coming up on May 3 at the Ridge View Winery in Mt. Sterling, Illinois. They will be cooking things like Squirrel in a crock pot, Beaver Burgers, Elk Roast, Turtle Stew, Deer Sausage, and God knows what else. It got me to thinking about the pioneer days when people actually ate those foods on a daily basis. They did it for survival.
The Sister City Commission announced at their monthly meeting that they will host the Germanfest on Saturday, May 31 in South Park. According to Mecki Kosin, the festival will come back in its original form, with food, drink and music.

Condo / 2 bedrooms / sleeps 6
|Key Info
My name is Nawin and this is my vacation condo available for mid to long stays.
Hua Hin is my favorite town for a holiday getaway. So I would like to welcome you here, to where I love most!
The apartment is on the 2nd floor and features 148 sq.m (1600 sq. ft.) two bedrooms with large open living plans, fully fitted kitchens and magnificent terraced sun decks overlooking the pool, thus making it a great choice for families..... an excellent space for children to play and adults to relax. Also we have a cycling machine for your exercise!
The Living Room
The spacious living room has large patio doors that open to the balcony, which benefits from light cooling breezes and offers views to the swimming pool. Open-air plan in design, with large windows, the room has a light and airy feeling. Cooled by the air conditioning or the light breezes, the living room is furnished with a large L-shape sofa, beanbag, a coffee table and a Flat Screen TV and a DVD and CD music centre. We also provide guests with plenty of movies to watch and books to read for relaxation. In addition, the windows are fitted with wire screen for night time relaxation without the mosquitoes.
The Bedrooms
The master bedroom features one king-size bed with comfortable linens, duvet and pillows. The bedroom has a lounge corner with cushion for relaxation next to the window in view of the pool. We also supply guests with hair blower and towels so you won't have to waste your baggage space.
(Note that there are blinds in this room unlike in the photo as they were taken down for washing when we were taking the photos)
The second bedroom features two single beds ideal for children, however if a double bed is desired we can mend two beds together to make one. This second bedroom is also good sized with access to another bathroom.
Baby cots are also provided if you have babies!
The Dining and Kitchen Area
We have a big round wooden table that can sit 6 people comfortably. The kitchen next to it has all that is need for a basic home cook meal or something nice during a relaxing day e.g. a cup of coffee or tea.
-Coffee Maker
-Full array of cutleries
-Frying pan and pots
Our condo unit is also fitted with a Siemens washing machine for your cloths, so everything is ideal for long term residents.
BABY COTS and HIGH CHAIRS
If you are a young family with babies we are happy to provide up to two baby cots and two high chairs for meal time.
Our apartment is 5 minutes walk from the beach (approx 300 meters), the pathway to walk there is within the private compound which goes through the Sheraton Hotel. The beach will be the perfect place to chill out in the complex.
This place is also perfect for family with small kids. Because within the Blue Lagoon complex, there is the kids pool and play area. And there is also another kids club at the Sheraton hotel a few steps away.
Furthermore, there is a large kids complex and playground at the mall nearby the condo called "The Venezia" which is a new shopping complex with a supermarket call "Villa".
The condo is in the same compound as Sheraton Resort but they are separate entities, therefore the services and facilities are separated between "Blue Lagoon" and "Sheraton Resort". However, Blue Lagoon residents can use the facilities for separate charge of THB 200/person/day or THB 400/family/day. They also have a weekly rate of THB 1,000/person/week. However the restaurants in the Sheraton Resort are still open for everyone (there is one restaurant by the beach called "Lunar" and one by the resort pool called "Sallas"). Fortunately the Blue Lagoon has its own lagoon styled 1000 meter pool for you to enjoy freely!!
There is a local fresh food market nearby, and a nice Thai restaurant less than 5 minutes walk away. Also the Makro supermarket for major shopping not too far away, about 5 minutes drive.
Apart from the above, there is the aforementioned Sheraton Resort's restaurants which you will receive a 15% discount card from us.
Another option would be going into Hua Hin centre (10 minutes by car) for shops and restaurants for more variety and market atmosphere.
Central Hula Hin is about 11km from our condo and Cha-am is about 13km. If you don't plan to hire a car, there are convenient public transportation available:
1. The public minibus which operates till 5.30 pm
2. Private van or taxi available most of the time (they are based in front of our condo)
Also if you like massage, there are services easy to find around the area, good if you don't want to pay resort prices for your massages.

Low Back Pain- A Short Study
Low back pain is something majority of people these are being diagnosed owing to...
Posted by
Low back pain is something majority of people these are being diagnosed owing to hurried and stressful life that demands performance 24/7. Low back pain can happen to anyone and everywhere below the region of ribs but above the legs.
It is a common thing to hurt your back while you twist, reach or lift. Be informed to know that during the course of our life, almost everyone has low back pain at one point or another with or without any reasons.
Causes Of Low Back Pain
There could be many causes of low back pain such as
Injury, strain and overuse of muscles or exhaustive work
Increasing age or aging
Herniated disc
Continued illness
Compression fractures
A childhood spine issue
It is also a fact that often doctors don't have much idea as to what causes low back pain sometimes.
Symptoms Of Low Back Pain
The symptoms of a low back pain will simply depend on the cause of the low back pain one is experiencing. The pain could be sharp or dull and can cover only a specific area or more and one may also get muscle spasms.
Leg symptoms such as numbness, pain, tingling or a pain extending below the knee can also arise as a result of low back pain. If the pain is grave then a serious issue called Cauda Equina Syndrome can also occur especially if the nerves at the spinal cord's end is squeezed and a quick emergency medical advice must be sought upon.
Diagnosis Of Low Back Pain
A doctor while diagnosing the low back pain enquire about your past health history, symptoms and activities following which a physical exam may follow depending on what a cause of the pain may be known and a serious one may be ruled out.
Various medical examinations such as CT scans, MRIs and X-rays have been known not to help to know the cause.
If your back pain is troubling you for more than 6 weeks, it may be advised to take up one of these above tests.
Treatment Of Low Back Pain
It has been known that most of the low back pain improves with basic first aid which includes doing light activities such as walking or taking some known and trusted prescribed medications such as Cymbalta, a selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor antidepressant (SSNRI) which has been proved to ease low back pain.
Walking can still be termed as the best and simplest exercise for lower back as it helps in blood circulation and keeps muscles to stay strong.
One may also try other things as well such as spinal manipulation, acupuncture and massage to keep the menace of low back pain away.

Where: 418-434 Fulton Street
When: 1870s
Why: Abraham & Straus was founded as Joseph Wechsler & Company in 1865. In 1883, the owners purchased the recently constructed, mansarded French Second Empire style cast iron "Wheeler Building" on Fulton Street, converting it into their fashionable emporium. In 1884, a handsome Romanesque Revival style warehouse of golden brick and stone was added on Livingston Street.

This one's my favorite so far. Looks like it belongsin Soho. Must get amazing light.
Unfortunately, the windows don't open into the selling floors, probably offices or stockrooms. Before A&S was gobbled up and became Macy's, it was one of the finest department stores in the city. The main floor elevator court is an Art Deco dream. It's now been turned into a selling space, but the architecture is untouched. Many years ago during the Christmas holidays, A&S would suspend a huge, lighted and decorated Christmas tree from the ceiling of that elevator court. It was something truly beautiful to behold, and the colored lights reflected and sparkled in the mirrored walls above the elevator doors. The store used to be a destination at Christmas time for families because of how beautiful their holiday windows were and how gorgeous the interior looked all decked out. There used to be 8 floors of retail space in the old A&S, in addition to an annex at the corner of Livingston & Hoyt Streets (the annex closed decades ago). Now the store has barely six floors of selling space filled with largely mediocre merchandise. What a shame. At least the exterior is mostly intact. Let's hope it stays that way.
I can't believe this hasn't been landmarked already. I thought the elevator court was landmarked years ago, which is the only reason it's survived thus far…
The building is great but I dont know what era of A&S you are talking about b/c at least since the 80's, that A&S (and probably all) was a crappy store, with crappy merchandise and crappy sales people – and Federated kept the tradition with the current Macy's
David, the era I'm talking about for A&S was the 1960s…maybe you weren't born yet….
I was…..for 30 days
That explains it then!
The funny thing about the preservation discussin for this building is that those cast iron columns were frowned upon in the late 1800's as the "prefab construction" of their day. They were created in two-column and an arch at a time and (usually in Brooklyn) sent to the site. Lots of downtown Manhattan buildings have the same columns. The book Gotham has a great discussion on it.
Can anyone tell me if there are any pictures around of the elevator bank and suspended christmas tree that you are talking about.
Is the store still open? Has it changed?
I have been long since gone from there and need to find some information for a book.
Please write me at my email address if anyone can help.
thank you NS
I have a photo of the tree from the late 50s early 60s – it was a post card issued by A&S.
NS – what is your email address – I can provide a photo for your book if you need.
516-662-1927. I work right near the store and my wife's uncles were VPs there. I can provide any information as needed.

Glyburide is a sulfonylurea based medication.
My husband has an allergy to sulfa based medications , is it safe for him to take glyburide?

Yes, there is potential for him to have an allergic reaction with Glyburide if your husband is allergic to sulfa based medicines. Sometimes however, patients may have reactions to one particular sulfa drug and be okay with others. If it is necessary for him to have glyburide than he should be started on it with caution and be monitored initially. If he doesn't have a reaction then it's fine for him to take it.
Discuss this with his doctor and see what they say.

This post currently has one response.
You are experiencing a very common issue in the world of facilities management. The core issue is senior management's lack of understanding of the scope of facilities. Too often, since every one has worked in a facility, everyone believes the job of FM can be done by anyone. The way to challenge this misunderstanding is to just look at what a FM should manage and coordinate – as the question of WHO – who is looking out for the employees and company in the following areas.
Environmental Management
Emergency Management and Response
Coordination with local authorities, e.g. Fire, EMS, Disaster Recovery,….
Facility Energy Conservation
Asset Management (theft, taxes, preventative/predictive maintenance,…)
Contract Management (outsourcing, Vendor performance management,…)
And the list goes o.
Remember, FM touches and often manages two of a company's top cost categories – Site and Building Costs and Employee Productivity.
– Site and Building Costs by assuring effective utilization of space and assets
– Employee Productivity by assuring effective work environments.
Thus, a clear FM focus can be very beneficial to a company's bottom line!

Prince Zed, Horde Prime's nephew would be a nice addition. He, Dare and Skeleteen could lead to another generation of heroes are villains.

All mine are grouped together, like the United Nations — in boxes, which are in bigger boxes but still together.
* My condolences . . . I could not resist. Skeletor made me do it.
Condolences to his family and friends, his extraordinary paintings inspired me to keep doing my own art. His Master's of the Universe images were awesome to the point, I wanted my figures to look...
