This was quite yummy and so easy to make, too. I'll definitely be making this again!flag if inappropriate
This was very good but a little decadent. Next time, I think I will reduce the amount of butter. I served it over couscous, and it was an excellent combination.flag if inappropriate

This recipe is awesome and unbelievably easy. Want to prep and prepare in less than 10 minutes? Revise to this... saute precooked shrimp in ginger-herb butter. I served with snow peas and ginger fried rice. Can't get easier than that!flag if inappropriate
I love cilantro, ginger and chives so I enjoyed it. My family requested it with pasta which I was not too excited about but turned out that it was very good. I served with pasta, sauteed asparagus and fresh tomatoes. Very refreshing.flag if inappropriate
My husband is not a shrimp lover by any means, but I thought this sounded so good that I made it for him anyway and he loved it. I have to say that he was very surpised himself. The recipe was so easy to prepare. I wouldn't change a thing and can't wait to make it again.flag if inappropriate
So easy and so good. This was one the whole family liked. I didn't make any changes in the recipe.flag if inappropriate
I served this shrimp over pasta, and give it four forks for its wonderful flavor, ease of preparation, and the fact that EVERYONE in my family of seven loved this dish --- a rare find indeed!flag if inappropriate
This turned out to be great. My guests raved about it, and ate all of it! I would make this again in a heartbeat, only i would skip the other things on the plate. It would also be great over pasta!flag if inappropriate
Not fantastic, but better than mediocre. A good, solid meal with relatively easy preparation.flag if inappropriate

The Critter Club is a newly published series for the brand new First Chapter book reader. The first in the series, Amy and the Missing Puppy, by Callie Barkley, introduces four friends (Amy, Ellie, Liz and Marion) at their weekly sleepover party just before spring break. While her three friends have cool plans over the vacation week, Amy is left to hang out in her mother's animal clinic reading Nancy Drew books. When a neighbor's puppy goes missing, Amy gets inspiration from the classic girl sleuth she's reading and investigates on her own. Luckily, her three friends' plans are altered so they can assist Amy with her case. Barkley uses simple yet descriptive language to engage the reader and make the story interesting, but not too complicated. With adorable illustrations by Marsha Riti and big, simple text, (as well as charming stories about friendship and animals), The Critter Club series is a great starter series for the young reader. Ellie's story is next in All About Ellie.
Introducing a new line of fairy books told from the human side! Disney's Never Girls series transports four girls to Pixie Hollow. In certain circumstances, when Never Land gets too close to our world and at just the right time, "Clumsies" (as the fairies like to call humans) can visit Never Land. In a Blink, by Kiki Thorpe, is the first title in the series. Kate, Lainey and Mia are playing soccer in the backyard, when a blink-talent fairy pops into the garden. Mia's little sister Gabby still believes in fairies, so when Prilla blinks in front of her, Gabby catches hold and all four girls are plopped into Pixie Hollow. The girls meet Tinker Bell and the other Disney fairies as they enlist their help to get back home. Fans of the Disney Fairies series will love this extension of the series, and it's perfect for readers who devoured Daisy Meadows' Rainbow Magic fairy books.
In Goldilocks and Just One Bear, a bear lost in the big city stumbles into the apartment of an absent human family. Confused, hungry, and tired, he samples three types of "porridge" (including a bowl of cat food – "too crunchy"), sits on three "chairs" (one of which is a cactus), and sleeps in three beds (he finds the bubble bath "too frothy"). When the family returns, the mama human and the bear are in for a big surprise – and so is every reader with the great good fortune to read this charming book. Leigh Hodgkinson's sketchy, retro-modern illustrations pack every page with humorous detail and covetable interior design.
Not all Goldilocks stories are guaranteed to have a happy ending. In Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs, Mo Willems sets up a more ominous premise. As the book begins, Mama Dinosaur rubs her hands together in nefarious fashion: "I SURE HOPE NO INNOCENT LITTLE SUCCULENT CHILD HAPPENS BY OUR UNLOCKED HOME WHILE WE ARE… uhhh… SOMEPLACE ELSE!" she hollers, preparatory to tiptoeing out of the house to hide in the nearby bushes with toothy Papa Dinosaur and a dinosaur visiting from Norway. The reader's brain automatically supplies the classic version of the Goldilocks tale, so that the two stories, old and new, play simultaneously like melody and harmony.
Newbery Award-winning author Karen Cushman has returned to children's literature with an exceptionally well-crafted tale. In Will Sparrow's Road, Cushman departs from her characteristically self-sufficient heroines, instead casting a young boy into the role of survivor/protagonist. Will's is a story of survival, of unlikely friendships and self-discovery and what it means to find one's place in the world. Runaway Will Sparrow wasn't always a liar and a thief. There'd been a time when he'd been the village schoolmaster's son, with a mother who smelled of lavender. That was before his mother abandoned him and his drunken father traded him to an innkeeper for ale. Escaping the innkeeper and his threats, Will finds himself on the road, penniless, hungry and alone. But the road, as life, is not a solitary one and Will soon finds himself in the mixed company of scoundrels and tricksters, the marginally honest and the roughly kind.
When chance brings him to the Oddities and Prodigies tent at a local fair, Will finds himself in a most peculiar company. A disgruntled dwarf, a girl with the face of a cat, a pig named Duchess, and other individuals strange to Will's experience round out the motley band. Things are not always as they seem however, and soon Will finds himself discerning villains and friends from the most unlikely of quarters.
Devotees of Cushman's previous historical fiction for children, such as Matilda Bone and The Midwife's Apprentice, will not be disappointed in this spirited new coming of age story set in Elizabethan England. With her keen eye for detail and meticulous historical research, Cushman paints a realistic depiction of that world, never attempting to sugarcoat the hard-won lot of her characters. Recommended for readers who have enjoyed Avi's Crispin series, and similar historical tales.
Books about shy children often fail to hit the mark. They treat shyness as something to be overcome, or as a reaction to stress. Eileen Spinelli's When No One is Watching takes an opposite, celebratory position – a funky little girl tells us how she acts when she is alone "I sing like a bird and I swing to the sky," and when she's not: "I hide like the cat alongside the big chair" in rhyming text that swings along with her. Her family and friends don't appear to be pressuring her to interact, and while she is subdued in the middle of a crowd, she is certainly a happy child. Her "best friend Loretta's shy, too" and she describes the ways that they have fun together.
If this were merely an affirming, positive book about a shy child, it would be a nice find. However, illustrator David A. Johnson's pen and ink and watercolor art makes each two-page spread a dance of mood and expressive gesture. His elegant lines describe movement with economy and grace, and show off every exuberant contortion of our shy little girl's active inner life.
The renowned author of African literature, Chinua Achebe, has died in Boston at the age of 82. He is best-known for his seminal 1958 novel Things Fall Apart, read by millions worldwide, and featured in the curriculum and reading lists of countless high schools and universities. This novel follows the life of Okonkwo, a proud Igbo man living in turn of the 19th century Nigeria, and the cultural changes that he must face and accept as British colonialism takes hold of the area and the only life he knows. Achebe also wrote a number of follow-up novels to this groundbreaking story. Confined to a wheelchair for the past twenty years following a car accident, he lived in the United States for the last two decades of his life, and was a professor of African Studies at Brown University in Providence.
Achebe also was a strong proponent of the rights of the people living in the once-breakaway Nigerian state of Biafra. His book There Was A Country: A Personal History of Biafra was published last year. Explaining the Nigerian civil war that took place in the late 1960s, this mélange of memoir and history reminded the world of an oft-forgotten war. Achebe also wrote an allegorical folktale which was republished last year with Mary GrandPré's illustrations. How the Leopard Got His Claws tells the story of a short-lived coup and the resulting return of the original power players, in terms that are understandable for all ages.
Two new picture books celebrate our interaction with waterfowl. In the engaging, wordless Flora and the Flamingo, written and illustrated by Molly Idle, a young girl tries to emulate a balletic flamingo. Each beautifully illustrated spread shows the ease with which the bird poses, leaps, and dances. Meanwhile, Flora does her best to mimic the flamingo's every move, some efforts more successful than others. The retro style of the illustration works well, and the generous use of white space on each page, some of which have extra flaps and fold-outs, make for an enjoyable read. A final splashdown between the two new friends embodies joy.
Lucky Ducklings, written by Eva Moore and illustrated by Nancy Carpenter, is based on a true event that occurred on Long Island. A mother duck has inadvertently lost her ducklings down a storm drain, and townsfolk must come to their rescue. Thankfully, onlookers to the scene recognize the ducklings' peril (and the mother duck's panic), and take action. Notably similar in some ways to Robert McCloskey's classic Make Way for Ducklings, this title even gives a knowing nod to the earlier title in a scene near the book's close. Carpenter's warm illustrations capture the pastoral nature of the setting against the fluster and alarm of the situation.
While most picture books tell a story, few cover the expanse of time of Building Our House, written and illustrated by Jonathan Bean. Based on Bean's own childhood experiences, the book details, step-by-step, the process his family embarked upon to build their home in the countryside. There are no shortcuts here – this is not a book about moving where boxes are suddenly unpacked and the finished home unveiled in a final two-page spread. Instead, the toil and trouble of moving and living in a temporary shelter is detailed. Similarly, the arduous progression of leveling the earth, creating a foundation, constructing a framework, and finishing the outside of the structure are all included. It is all worth it, of course, and the helping hands described bring a smile to the reader.
This is a joyful, fast-paced book, celebrating immediate and external family and the community at large. The subtle passing and order of the seasons is an added learning benefit for readers. The excitement of the large machinery, warm feelings of being able to pitch in (even as a small boy) and the sense of accomplishment at the finished product, is all palpable. An author's note at the end describes his memories of the eighteen-month process. It also outlines how he received recollection assistance from his family and their photos of the worksite as it went from empty site to the family's new home. Construction-, tool-, and machinery-loving kids will enjoy Building Our House, and demand many rereads as they find additional objects and activities in each illustration.
For over seven decades, generations of young readers have delighted in the stories of Henry, Jessie, Violet and Benny, known collectively as The Boxcar Children. But before four orphans found their way from an abandoned boxcar to a new life with their loving grandfather, they had another life and adventures yet untold. In The Boxcar Children Beginning: The Aldens of Meadow Fair Farm, Newbery Medal-winning author Patricia MacLachlan offers a new beginning to a classic series.
The Alden family of Meadow Fair Farm is not wealthy, but they have always managed. What they lack in economy they balance with the support of strong family ties and good humor. Readers will be charmed by the gentle tone and tranquil setting of the farm life and the new friends encountered as the Alden children enjoy their last season at home before embarking on a more challenging journey. MacLachlan possesses an uncanny gift for mirroring the voice of Gertrude Chandler Warner. Her narration and characterizations strongly reflect the simple, straightforward and unassuming style of the original. Those who have read any of the nineteen volumes of The Boxcar Children will be struck by the similarity of style between the two authors.
Her ability to engage young readers without overwhelming them is particularly evident in this story. The Boxcar Children Beginning prequel serves as a wonderful introduction to the rich and bountiful series, while neatly avoiding the hazard of saddening young readers when it comes to the reason for their leaving the farm. The transition from life on the farm to life in the boxcar is made all the smoother by MacLachlan's inclusion of a continuation teaser, borrowed from the original first volume. This prequel is recommended both for younger readers who have yet to enjoy the beloved series, and for current fans curious about the children's life before the boxcar.
Newbery Medal winner Clare Vanderpool returns with a coming-of-age tale sprinkled with magic and adventure in Navigating Early, set at the end of World War II. Jack Baker's mother has suddenly died, and his military dad uproots him from Kansas to an all-boys boarding school in Maine. While feeling like a fish out of the very water so prevalent on this campus, Jack does befriend Early Auden, an unusual boy who seems to have his run of the school. Early is an orphan whose brother was a superstar at the school but whom everyone (except Early) believes to have died in the war.
As the two get to know one another, it is clear that while Early may be quirky, even obsessive; he definitely has a gift for numbers. He sees colors in numbers and fashions a story about the number Pi. Early shares his story of Pi with Jack, and Jack agrees to accompany Early on his quest for his missing brother and a legendary great black bear along the Appalachian Trail. Early's Pi story is filled with pirates, volcanoes, and extraordinary escapades. Oddly, the boys' journey parallels Pi's story, as they encounter similar characters and excitement along the Trail. The two travel by land and sea all while overcoming obstacles and learning more about other and themselves.
As they complete this mission together and navigate dangerous paths, each realizes the power of his personal connections and that sometimes what you are looking for isn't always what you find. Vanderpool masterfully weaves the story of the boys' quest with the tale of Pi into a quickly moving narrative with beautiful language and mystical overtones. This stunning novel is homage to the power of stories, the importance of personal journeys, and the power of our individual constellations.
Children's literature is a booming business, and with good reason. As a genre, it is among the most densely populated with high quality, richly developed stories – new classics in the making. And yet, amidst this abundance of new literary treasures, have you found yourself pining for the pastoral tales of Beatrix Potter and Kenneth Grahame? Do you fear that children's classics of a bygone era are in danger of becoming bygone themselves? Newbery Honoree Jacqueline Kelly and illustrator Clint Young put such fears to rest in a new masterpiece: Return to the Willows.
Both a sequel and homage to Grahame's time-honored The Wind in the Willows, author Kelly has created a joyful continuance to the collective adventures of the original author's beloved characters, Toad, Mole, Ratty, and others. Demonstrating a keen sense of Grahame's voice and whimsical style, Kelly succeeds in deftly merging Grahame's attractive setting and fanciful characters with her own conversational and lively style of narration. The result is a jubilant new adventure in the style of the original, rendered uniquely accessible to a 21st-century audience.
Because of its playful tone and engaging language, Kelly's Return to the Willows shines as a read-aloud and is best enjoyed as shared reading. Some of the words may be challenging for younger readers, who may wish to follow along looking at the lush pictures as an adult reads aloud. Recommended for fans of pastoral, anthropomorphic tales, in the tradition of Beatrix Potter and Kenneth Grahame. Longing for read-alikes? Kelly is not the only author revisiting the classics. Readers who find they are craving similar titles will also enjoy Emma Thompson's tribute to Beatrix Potter in The Further Tale of Peter Rabbit.

With approximately 700,000 cases in the United States per year, stroke is the third leading cause of death and a leading cause of severe, long-term disability. Every 45 seconds someone has a stroke, and every three minutes someone dies of one. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain becomes blocked by a blood clot (ischemic stroke) or ruptures (hemorrhagic stroke). This interruption in the blood and oxygen supply, to part of the brain, results in cell death and loss of function.
"There is a need for new and more effective approaches to stroke therapy for patients who present more than three hours after onset of symptoms," said Dr. Lawrence Wechsler, professor of neurology and neurological surgery at the University of Pittsburgh Medical School and director of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Stroke Institute. "Alfimeprase could be well suited for this particular setting as it is a clot-dissolver that holds the potential to directly and rapidly dissolve blood clots while keeping its activity localized to the site of delivery. We look forward to conducting this proof-of-concept trial to determine if alfimeprase's unique attributes translate into positive study outcomes for this patient population."
About Alfimeprase
Alfimeprase is a recombinant direct acting fibrinolytic (rDAF) that has the potential to rapidly dissolve blood clots through a unique mechanism of action -- it directly degrades fibrin, a protein that provides the scaffolding for blood clots. In addition, alfimeprase's thrombolytic activity appears to be localized to the site of delivery because it is rapidly inactivated by alpha-2 macroglobulin, a naturally occurring protein in the blood, as it moves away from the site of delivery and into the general blood circulation.
In addition to acute ischemic stroke, alfimeprase is also being
evaluated as a potential treatment for cath

3. 2. Victoria Beckham is being a total diva.
According to Perez Hilton:
"Victoria Beckham has outrageous demands. Let's just say that they are paying at least $15,000 for Victoria Beckham's hair, make-up and stylist. In comparison, the other Spice Girls cost one-fourth of what Victoria is costing."
4. 3. This rhinestone microphone might make a repeat appearance.
Victoria Beckham used it during the Spice Girls reunion tour in 2007. She recently tweeted about unearthing it, leading some to believe it might be part of the Olympic performance.
Look what I found!! X vb http://t.co/qmGvshEt— Victoria Beckham
6. 4. Giles Deacon is dressing Beckham.
Rumors swirled that designer Gilles Deacon (a model from his 2011 show seen here) would be designing the outfits for the Spice Girls' alleged Closing Ceremonies performance. Why? Because Victoria Beckham tweeted about it:
Morning fitting with @gilesgilesgiles, cuddle with @kegrand bunny!! X vb http://t.co/M2dpwbTx— Victoria Beckham (@victoriabeckham)
Morning fitting with @gilesgilesgiles, cuddle with @kegrand bunny!! X vb http://t.co/M2dpwbTx— Victoria Beckham
Grazia Daily reports that Deacon isn't dressing the whole crew, meaning might be dressing only Posh.
8. 5. Zuhair Murad is also designing outfits.
Murad is known for outfitting celebrities from Jennifer Lopez to Miley Cyrus. Above is one of the Lebanese designer's dresses from his 2010 couture show.
Mel B. tweeted that she's excited to wear his clothes:
Can't wait to wear Zuhair Murad clothes this weekend!!— Melanie Brown

The lower half of the first pitch is absolutely stellar, steep, continuous 5.7. Among the best climbing at that grade you'll encounter anywhere, albeit over too soon. The easy but exposed arete finish makes this climb more than a one pitch wonder.
Their respective length differences aside, I wish this climb was adjacent to mental physics, so people could feel how a real four star 5.7 presents itself.
Combine this climb with Renaissance direct and your half-day is prime for smiles.

That first pitch was a lot of fun, the steep and thin climbing is great. The second pitch is enjoyable as well, with a variety of moves from thin to wide. Save the #4 for the last horizontal placement before the R section. The R section is about 30' of very easy arete climbing at probably 5.3. Don't sweat it and just go for it.
I found the easiest way to get to the base of the climb is to climb Renaissance Direct or Hanging Gardern's and walk over to the Phatom's anchors. Double rope rap onto the last boulder. You'll avoid the awkward wide climbing to get on top of the starting boulder.
Gear to 4". Bring 2 #3's for the gear anchor on top of pitch 1.
EDIT: After doing this one again the other day I found that a #4 wasn't necessary for the last part. The crack accepts a few smaller sizes well. So If you are bringing the #4 for just this pitch, I'd suggest leaving it at home.

So, helping fulfil the nation's newly-found sporting enthusiasm, five-star health & fitness company Illumanis – just launched this summer – will get you fit in a week with its brand-new 'Train like an Olympian' programme.
Not all of us have four years to train, so this week-long package offers a great alternative. And, if you're inspired by our athletes and are now after abs like Ennis and the stamina of Mo, this training camp will not only help you achieve these goals, but will also give you an insight into how top-level athletes train and prepare for the biggest events of their lives.
Train like an Olympian, from £1,525 pp
Following a scientific approach to training, this week will get your body conditioned for high-performance training, and you'll come away feeling fitter, stronger, faster and energised, with an easy-to-follow training programme for when you're back home.

And, as it is a holiday – and you're not actually an Olympian (yet) – you do get some time off to enjoy the five-star surroundings, visit a traditional hammam, enjoy Turkish cuisine and relax by the pool or on the hotel's private beach.
- Departing 18 November, the week-long training camp costs from £1,525 pp (no single supplement) and includes flights (Gatwick), transfers, seven nights' full-board at a five-star hotel, all training and fitness sessions, nutritional advice, supplements as per programme and use of the hotel's facilities and spa.

Cutler-to-Marshall looking good; line coming together
The Chicago No. 1 offense scored 14 points in the first quarter of the Bears' 33-28 win over the San Diego Chargers. The unit was on the field for four possessions, two very bad and two very good, 15 plays that produced 14 points.
And some interesting trend lines:
In two preseason games, seven series and 25 plays, Jay Cutler has completed 10 of 13 preseason passes for 94 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions. Cutler threw a costly interception after a San Diego turnover, forcing a pass toward Brandon Marshall despite double coverage – exactly the kind of 2012 play Cutler needs to avoid.…. Josh McCown was serviceable as not only Cutler's relief, but also Matt Blanchard's after Blanchard suffered a fractured knuckle that will force the Bears to bring in a No. 3 quarterback. McCown completed five of eight passes for 28 yards working with the No. 2 and No. 3 units.
Trending: The diversification of the offense is there in theory; Marshall was not the primary receiver on several of the plays on which Cutler threw to him. Until Cutler shows consistent willingness to look for someone other than Marshall under pressure, however, the offense is still just a modified version of the one that didn't work all that well in 2012.
Running backs
Matt Forte had the kind of game running backs in Marc Trestman offenses have come to expect. He carried the ball eight times for 74 yards, 58 of those coming on one burst off his left side. Forte used his interference well throughout, cut back behind solid second-level blocking by his offensive line to exploit pursuit…. Michael Bush got in some physical work with 11 carries and 37 yards, one of them on his signatures: a goal-line burst for a touchdown.
[VIEW FROM THE MOON: What the Bears' win over San Diego means]
Michael Ford boosted his stock with strong kickoff returns, three for 163 yards, while Armando Allen was stuck on the bench with a hamstring injury that seriously undercuts his roster chances.
Trending: Marc Trestman said the Bears wanted to get the ball to Matt Forte more often and that was done. The Bears ran the ball by design 34 times vs. 20 pass plays. Balance has worked for the Bears in the past and Trestman is clearly a believer as well…. Ford has all but clinched the No. 3 running back spot.
Wide receivers
Brandon Marshall got in his first preseason game and caught four passes from Jay Cutler, the fifth being an interception of another Marshall "target" …. The offense was so pass-light that zero passes were thrown to Joe Anderson and Devin Aromashodu, two receivers competing for an important roster spot…. Eric Weems caught one of the two passes thrown to him.
Trending: Hard to draw trend lines from a total of 14 pass plays and none to a first-string receiver other than Marshall.
Tight ends
Martellus Bennett was not involved in the offense at Carolina and his early effort vs. San Diego was a disaster, beaten on an outside rush by LB Jarrett Johnson for a sack of Jay Cutler. The Bears lined Bennett and Steve Maneri as double-tights outside Jordan Mills but were beaten on their blocks.
What Bennett or any other tight end might do in this offense will have to wait another week to be revealed. "We had some plays for him early," Cutler said. "We never got to him. I think we have a good idea of what he can do through practice… . We're calling plays off of defenses, not for a specific player involved."
Trending: Jay Cutler had an excellent connection with Greg Olsen (101 catches over two seasons) before Mike Martz effectively sent Olsen to Carolina. The Bears spent a lot of money on Bennett and not one pass has gone his way out of the 25 run by the No. 1 offense. It wasn't supposed to work that way.
Offensive line
Kyle Long in his first start looked every bit the part of a No. 1 pick, with clear-out blocks, keeping his feet and controlling Chargers at the point of attack. His quickness getting to the second level was excellent and he was aggressive throughout….Jordan Mills was solid in his first start as well, standing up to the likes of ex-Colts sack leader Dwight Freeney. Sacks on two of the first three plays was a second straight inauspicious start but the O-line was not the problem.
[RELATED: Bostic lays out Chargers' wide receiver]
Eben Britton and J'Marcus Webb worked extensively at right and left tackles, respectively, and did not draw attention or flags or sacks, as they did at Carolina…. James Brown was beaten badly by rookie defensive tackle Kwame Geathers for a loss on a Michael Ford run.
Trending: Mills will need a meltdown to lose the starting right-tackle spot. The "loser" on Thursday was Jonathan Scott, who remains sidelined with a knee problem while Britton and Webb push for the swing-tackle job. Scott is expected back next week but his chances may be limited in game three with the starters playing into the third quarter.

From a photo shoot, clearly. Yes, I really am this pale. That's not makeup.
Twinkie's a total jerkface, but he sure is cute.
I was a model for the Art Deco Society of Washington for their vintage fashion show in March. My hair is longer currently, closer to shoulder length.
Recent shot where I'm very unsure of my "new" vintage shirt.
Just taking my velociraptor for a sunday stroll. Most recent photo, hair's long again, though I'm debating donating it soon-it's well past my shoulders.
Self-indulgent self-portrait before the dance. Hair: short.
Test One: What game am I playing? Also, why did I own such a hideous sofa, and why did I think a wallet chain looked good? On another note, I still have that shirt, 10 years later. The more I look at this photo, the more I love it. Bad fashion choices!
Green dress, dancing. Apparently, that's where the bulk of my photos come from as of late. What you can't see: I paired the dress with my Chewbacca boots. Also of note, this pic is 4 or so years old but is about how I look right now.
I have pockets!

We know fires cannot always be prevented from starting, but they can be prevented from spreading, saving precious lives and valuable property. We are committed to containing the spread of a fire when it occurs. Our products are developed with the understanding that contractors struggle with limited budgets, yet must comply with fire safety building codes. Our products meet or exceed these building code requirements while remaining extremely cost-effective by saving builders material costs, labor costs, and time.
- Prevents the spread of smoke and fire
- 100% compression and/or extension
- U.L. tested for up to 6″ of deflection
- Satisfies all Building Codes
- One-step, cost effective protection
An innovative and inexpensive clip design that is easy to install, less expensive than many other systems, meets all building code requirements, and is U.L. classified for use in most head-of-wall joints rated for up to 2 inches of movement.
PosiKlips offer a simple yet totally effective alternative to double track or slotted track systems. By engaging the short flange of the metal stud and then attaching to the inside flange of the ceiling track, PosiKlips provide deflection for both rated and non-rated walls.
Fire Trak achieves what most other deflection track and clip systems cannot – a fire rating for head-of-wall joints subject to 1/2″ or more of deflection without fire caulk or spray, allowing substantially greater movement capabilities.
Seismic Requirements
Fire Trak has been cycled at 30 CPM to meet seismic requirements. Many systems currently in use have not been tested to this requirement.
Smoke Containment
Fire Trak has conducted air leakage tests with U.L. and has received an L-rating of less than 1 CFM per lineal foot.
Sound Control
The Fire Trak System has superior sound control characteristics and has applications with sound walls that are subject to deflection, but not necessarily fire-rated.

FBI, police search for balding bank robber
San Diego The FBI and San Diego police are looking for a balding, bespectacled robber who stole cash from a Wells Fargo Bank Monday.
The robbery was reported at the bank on B Street about noon, FBI Special Agent Darrell Foxworth said Monday.

She gave him cash, which he put in the shopping bag and left. No weapon was seen and no one was injured.
The robber was described as white, 30 to 40 years old, about 5 feet 7 inches tall and 160 pounds, wearing a black T-shirt, tan pants and glasses. He was balding with black and gray hair on the sides and back of his head.

The RBI's directive came on its prior advice to banks to make bank branches and ATMs accessible to people with disabilities and make at least one-third of the new ATMs installed as talking ATMs with Braille keypads.
SBI Chairperson Arundhati Bhattacharya said that the RBI would issue guidelines allowing minors over 10 years to operate bank savings accounts independently and use facilities such as ATMs and cheque books.
The Reserve Bank of India constituted on 9 December 1991, a Committee under the Chairmanship of Shri P.R. Nayank, Deputy Governor to examine the difficulties confronting the small scale industries (SSI) in the country in the matter of securing finance.
RBI allowed banks to provide loans with tenures of up to 10 years to exporters to help them ensure capital flows to fulfill long-term contracts
The government should cut its stakes in state banks to below 50 per cent and establish "fully empowered" bank boards, the committee chaired by former Axis Bank Chief Executive P. J. Nayak propose.

The Obama administration's decision to provide military support to the Syrian opposition is a timely one that will help create "a level playing field" in the war against Bashar Assad's regime, senior Turkish officials said on Friday.
"The White House declaration … makes us very happy," Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Besir Atalay said at a meeting hosted by the Middle East Institute in Washington.
The Syrian Foreign Ministry denounced as "a caravan of lies" the White House's declaration that the Assad regime had used chemical weapons, including the nerve agent sarin, on a small scale against the opposition many times in the past year.
SEE ALSO: White House says weapons en route to Syrian rebels
Ben Rhodes, deputy National Security Advisor for strategic communications, said on Thursday that the Obama administration would respond to the use of chemical weapons by expanding its military support to the Syrian rebels, but he did not detail what weapons would be provided.
The rebels have been outmatched in their fight against Mr. Assad's army, which is backed by Iranian-supported Hezbollah fighters and armed by Russia.
"Arming the rebels is a good idea because it will create a level playing field for the opposition," said Volkan Bozkir, chairman of the Turkish parliament's foreign affairs committee.
"If we are expecting a positive outcome in Geneva, I think it is very important to send the Syrian opposition and the Syrian regime representatives to Geneva even-handed," he added.
The U.S. and Russia have supported negotiations in Geneva between the Syrian rebels and representatives of the Assad regime. The talks were expected to take place this month, but have been postponed and are now expected in July.
The Assad regime has said that it will participate in the talks, but the rebels have so far refused to attend.
Mr. Atalay said the U.S. military support was important also because of the prevailing point of view that the talks in Geneva may never materialize.
The White House decision to arm the rebels follows a significant military setback for the opposition.
Earlier this month, Syrian troops and Lebanese Hezbollah fighters seized the strategic town of Qusair, situated close to the border with Lebanon and on the road that connects Damascus to Aleppo. The loss of Qusair cut off a key supply route for the rebels.
The U.S. arms shipments are likely to be delivered to the rebels through Turkey or Jordan, or both.
Turkey favors arming the rebels "as long as it produces a democratic outcome in Syria, but that doesn't mean that Turkey is giving an open cart to this kind of military operations," said Mr. Bozkir.
The Assad regime has received military support from Russia and the Iran-backed Hezbollah militants.
Turkey helped make the case that the Assad regime has used chemical weapons during the course of the two-year-old civil war in which more than 90,000 people have been killed.

text: Pushing and pulling which prolabs offer is done by varying the time in developer. Most prolabs will use a dip & dunk machine which will enable the operator to vary time in developer. If you have to push or pull the film will have to be done seperately hence the extra charge. Your average 1 hour photo store however will be using a roller transport processor. In these processors the only way to alter development is to alter the temperature setting in the developer, or to turn off the drive while the film is in the developer to extend the time. Neither of these is ideal, which is why these stores don't usually offer push / pull services.

Aeronautical Engineering Consulting Services
DARcorporation has been offering aeronautical engineering software and consulting services since 1991. Our projects include single and multi-engine propeller and jet powered aircraft, Business Jets, Very Light Jets (VLJ), Kit, LSA and Experimental Category aircraft, VTOL combat force insertion vehicles, VTOL aircraft, UAV's for civil and military applications and hybrid air/ground vehicles.
Experience in the design, detailed analysis and building of prototypes gives DARcorporation a unique advantage over other companies, since we can go from initial design all the way through full size prototype manufacturing. The unique tools we developed for design and analysis make DARcorporation the best choice for any new or existing aeronautical project. DARcorporation engineers can advise on what the best materials are for your design and what the best configuration is. We will work with you to design and optimize your aircraft for performance, manufacturability and cost. Please see our Consulting Services Brochure.
Aircraft Design & Analysis
We can design to LSA, U.S. Experimental Category, U.S. FAR 23, FAR 25, U.S. MIL SPEC requirements. Our projects include single and multi-engine propeller and jet powered aircraft; Business Jets, Very Light Jets (VLJ); Kit, LSA and Experimental Category aircraft; VTOL combat force insertion vehicles; VTOL aircraft; UAV's for civil and military applications and hybrid air/ground vehicles.
We begin every project with a careful review of objectives and existing data and then offer an assessment that includes project cost projection and time line. Our engineers can use your conceptual sketches and specifications to produce a complete design. Or, if you need a review of an existing design, we will analyze your design and provide you a documented projection of performance and cost of your aircraft vehicle and perform a detailed comparative analysis of your competitor's product, including weaknesses and strengths.
Our years of experience, coupled with a practice of doing "trial and error" of airplane designs on our computers, ensures that you will not be surprised by major mistakes on the production floor or in flight testing. Our disciplined approach to designing, analyzing, building and testing airplanes will ensure a successful product. Please see our Design & Analysis Brochure.
Aerodynamic Design & Analysis
DARcorporation engineers perform detailed aerodynamic analysis on any structure using our experience and several Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) packages. The CFD packages predict fluid flow around objects to analyze aerodynamic characteristics and assist in the optimization of designs. The CFD packages are used to simulate the air flow around aircraft and how the fluid interacts with the aircraft surface for any type of aircraft configuration. Coupled with our Advanced Aircraft Analysis software, the CFD results aid in aerodynamic and stability & control analysis for conventional and unconventional types of aircraft. DARcorporation also utilizes the Quasi-Vortex-Lattice Method, VORSTAB, to analyze both attached and vortex-separated flows to calculate longitudinal and lateral-directional aerodynamic characteristics for various aircraft configurations. Using these CFD packages, we analyze and optimize airfoils to provide the optimal lift, drag, moments and pressure distribution for aircraft lifting surfaces such as wings, horizontal tails, vertical tails, canards and V-tails. The analytical methods used on wings and other lifting surfaces can be extended to blade analysis for rotors, including propellers, helicopters and wind turbine rotors. Based on Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory, we further developed and customized our software for initial aerodynamic design of wind turbine blades that can handle any type of configuration (vertical or horizontal axis) and blade shape. Using CFD to simulate rotation, we can quantify the full power curve of the wind turbine. The pressure distribution over the blades is extracted from CFD and torque (and thus energy) curves are constructed. The pressure distributions obtained from the CFD analyses are also used in the structural design and analysis of the blades. Based on the aerodynamic design, a wind tunnel model can be designed, constructed and tested. CFD simulation techniques can also apply to engine inlet design and engine duct flow behavior prediction. Using our own BEM software, we can design propellers/fans to maximize thrust. Over the years, DARcorporation has developed a unique expertise in aerodynamic design of airplanes, wind turbines, fans, inlets and rotors.
Structural Design & Analysis
Finite Element Analysis (FEA), coupled with analytical methods when necessary, is used to carry out multiple types of structural analyses including strength, stiffness, elastic stability, dynamic modes and responses (vibration suppression), fatigue, flutter, crash/impact, etc. Structural analysis software (Femap/Nastran, AFGROW, ZAERO, LS-DYNA, etc.) is used to model and analyze the structure, which can be made of metals (steel, aluminum, etc.), composites (glass, carbon, etc.) or any combination of metals and composites as well as bonded and fastened joints. Pressure distributions, experimental or analytical, are mapped to the structural model to account for the aerodynamic loads. Inertial and thermal loads are also included in the FEA modeling and most load cases are based on LSA, U.S. Experimental Category, FAR 23, FAR 25 and U.S. MIL SPEC requirements. Results such as stresses, deformations, buckling factors, natural frequencies, flutter speeds, impact forces etc. are compared against possible failure modes to ensure the structural integrity. The structural analysis yields selection of materials, material thicknesses, composite layup schedule and produces an optimized structural configuration. Coupled with fatigue analysis, the structural service life is ensured. Detailed 3D CAD models and manufacturing drawings of the structural components can then be generated and used for parts production, assembly and quality control. Please see our Structural Design & Analysis Brochure.
Structural Review
Upon review of many existing airplane designs, DARcorporation engineers have discovered serious problems with longitudinal and lateral stability of the airplane. Other airplanes had serious stall and spin recovery issues. All of these problems were due to insufficient analysis in the initial design stage. We have also observed structural design, analysis and manufacturing methods that did not meet the rigorous standards demanded by fight vehicles. The outcome was airplanes with serious weight and balance issues and structural defects. All of these problems could have been avoided if adequate engineering had been performed prior to fabrication and if the prototypes were built according to the appropriate flight vehicle standards.
Prototyping & Manufacturing
DARcorporation can design, analyze and build the structure, whether it is made out of composites, metal or a combination of both. We will select materials and provide layup schedules for composites. We will analyze strength, stiffness, elastic stability, flutter and overall system dynamics. DARcorporation engineers have worked with many unconventional designs including experimental airplanes, flying cars and UAVs. Our designs are optimized for best performance based on results from CFD, structural analysis and wind tunnel testing. In addition to designing your vehicle, we will keep us in close involvement in every step of its fabrication and assembly, thereby assuring that "what we designed is what you fly". We can perform static load, dynamic normal modes, flutter and flight tests to ensure that your airplane does what we say it will do. Please see our Prototyping & Testing Brochure.
Wind Tunnel Testing
As part of our aeronautical design and analysis consulting services, DARcorporation performs wind tunnel and water tunnel testing, analysis and management. We have extensive experience with many types and sizes of wind & water tunnel testing programs and have access to the experimental facilities at The University of Kansas, Wichita State University and The University of Washington.
Our team of highly skilled aeronautical engineers can test and analyze models in subsonic and transonic flow regimes. We can conduct flow visualization tests on models and provide qualitative assessments. We will also analyze stability & control and drag data derived from wind tunnel tests. We can test models ranging from 6 inches to 6 feet, using in-house test stands fully integrated with cutting-edge data acquisition systems to collect data in all six degrees of freedom. DARcorporation will plan and manage all aspects of modeling, testing and data analysis. We will provide the perfect liaison with wind tunnel model manufacturing companies and perform model accuracy inspection. Please see our Wind Tunnel Testing Brochure.

Speke Hall
Seen at Speke this month:
- Drifts of snowdrops in the woods
- A rather grand kestrel
- Some brave daffodils starting to appear above ground
- Lots of robins
Habitats - The Clough
This is an ancient woodland site, situated in a semicircle between the Hall and the River Mersey.
It was mentioned in the Domesday Survey of 1086, but has been clear-felled in the past and is now mostly sycamore with some native hardwood trees.
Trees from the Clough are said to have been used in the building of the Hall.
Habitats - Meadows
The original farmland that surrounded the gardens and hall has been converted to wildflower and wild grass meadows, with historic field boundaries reinstated.
They contain a good variety of native grasses and herbs. This creates an excellent habitat for invertebrates, butterflies and moths, mammals and birds.
Habitats - Stocktons Wood
Part of the original Speke Hall estate, the woodland has survived nearly 600 years intact. Originally heathland, with a scattering of hardwood trees, it now contains oak, birch and sycamore trees as well as rhododendron and bracken.
The wood has a richly diverse fauna and two very rare species of beetle are found here.
