@. c. TROTTER SELF TAPPING SCREW May 116, 19330 Filed Nov. 28, 1951 Patented May 16, 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE GEORGE O. TBOTTEB,"OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ABSIGNOB TO BHAKEPBOOI' LOOK WASHER oomamr, OI CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION 01' DELAWARE SELF-TRYING SCREW Application filed Kovember B8, 1881. Serial No. 577,748.
My invention relates generallyto self tapping screws, and more particularly to screws equi ped with standard threads 'which are a apted to be tapped into hard materials, such as metals, Bakelite, etc.
The invention disclosed in the present application is related to the invention set forth in my coending applicatiom'Serial No. 551,904, file -July 20, 1931, but resents certain structural features not disc osed in said co-pending application.
One of the primary objects of my invention is to )rovide a self-tap ing screw having threa s of conventiona design, which is equipped with piloting means for expediting the insertion of the screw within an aperture of a work piece.
More specifically, my invention contemplates-the rovision of a screw which is longitudina ly recessed and'providedat its entering extremity with a reduced section or pilot, said pilot serving to guide the screw as it cuts its way within the work piece.
Still another object of my invention is to provide a screw, as above set forth, in which a section of the screw body includm a portion of the pilot is resilient, an hence adapted to yield when the screw is tightened within the work piece so as to facilitate the cutting action of the screw.
A further and more specific object of my invention is to rovide a screw having a pilot at its entering end, as above set forth, which is formed with a recess extending longitudinally of the screw body in a direction substantially normal to the thread helix, whereby, when the screw is applied to a work iece, a section of the pilot and the screw ody proper will yield without eifecting any misalinement of the screw threads during the cutting operation.
The foregoing and numerous other objects and advantages will be more apparent from the following detailed descriptlon when considered in connection with the accompanying drawing, whereinigure 1 is a side elevational View of a self-tapping screw representing one embodiment of my invention, said screw being provlded with a longitudlnal recess which 15 lslull stantially perpendicular to the thread Figure 2 is a bottom view of the screw shown in Fi re 1;
Fi re 3 1s a view taken from the right of Figure 1;
F gure 4 is a modified self-tapping screw equ pped with a lon 'tudinal recess which 1s substantially para lel to the screw axis;
Figure 5 is a bottom view of the screw shown in Fi re 4;
Figure 6 is still another modified screw construction in which the entering end of the screw body is provided with a transverse slot;
Figure 7 is a bottom view of the screw structure shown in Figure 6; and.
Figures 8 to 10 inclusive disclose still another modified screw construction.
Referring now to the drawing more in detail, wherein like numerals have been employed to designate similar arts throu hout the various figures, it wi I be seen t at one embodiment ofmy invention as shown in Figures 1 to 3 inclusive, inclu es a screw designated generally by the numeral 10. This screw 10 includes a threaded body 12 having a head 14 at one end thereof and a pilot 16 extending from the opposite end thereof. The screw body 12 is c lmdrical throughout its entire extent, and t e threads thereof extend a uniform distance outwardly over substantially the entire length of the screw body. The threaded body 12 is slightly chamfered or beveled at 18, but the screw threads do not vary'from their standard form except of course as they are aifected by the presence of the cut-01f or chamfered portion 18.
A recess or slot 20 extends lon itudinally and partially across the screw b0 y,12, and it will be noted that the plane of this slot is substantially perpendicular to the thread helix. The presence of the slot 20 divides the screw body 12 into a screw section 22 and a companion section 24. It will be seen from Figure 2 that the section 22 is smaller in cross section than the section 24. The pilot 16 is slightly less in diameter than the bottom diameter of the screw threads, and
.normal cylindrical position.
thus facilitates the entrance of the screw Within the a )erture of a work piece. As a rotary and orward force is applied to the screw head 14, the screw section 22 tends to yield inwardly, and a serrated cutting edge 26 of the section 24 cuts away the material of the work piece. Chips removed from the stock are received by the slot 20, and it will be apparent that the screw section 22 yields about an axis which is substantially normal to the plane of the thread hel x. By having the section 22 yieldable 111 this manner, no misalinement of the threads 1n either of the sections 22 and 24 is experienced, there=- by positively preventing any reaming effect. I or a more detailed discussion and explanation of this particular disposition of t e slot 20, reference is again made to my above mentioned co-pending application.
It will be apparent fromthe above description that the yielding of the screw section 22 occurs only durin the in1t1al application of the screw to the aperture of a work piece. In other words, after the threads have been cut in the work piece the screw section 22 and its companion pilot section automatically swing outwardly to thelr The normal tendenc of the screw section 22 to swing outwar ly as the threads are out within the work piece, sets up sufiicient frictional resistance to counteract any tendency for the screw to loosen. It should also be noted that the threads formed by my improved screw are actually -cut in the work piece, as distinguished from being forced or molded 1n the work piece. For this reason it 18 not necessary to provide a long or extended taper to the screw in order to force it into the aperture of the work p1ece. The threads of the screw are uniform in depth, with the possible exception of a fragmentary portion thereof cut away by the presence of the chamfer 18.
In Figures 4 and 5 I have disclosed a modified screw construction designated generally by the numeral 100. This screw is provided with a longitudinal recess or slot 20a, which is substantially parallel to the axis of the screw, and hence is inclined w th respect to the plane of the, thread helix. Said screw also 1ncludes a head 14a, a screw body 12a made up of a pair of screw sections 22a and 24a, which are separated by the slot 20a,and a pilot 16a extending from the screw body 1201, said pilot being similar to the pilot 16 of the screw 10. It will be apparent that the screw sections 220i and 24a are substantially e ual in cross section by reason of the fact t at the slot 20a extends medially of the screw body. The threads within the screw section 22a, when they are sprung inwardly as a result of the initial engagement of said section with the work piece, will not maintain absolute alinement with the companion threads in the section 24a, as described in connection with F1 ures 1 to 3 inclusive. However the serrate cutting edge 26a of the screw section 24a will cut threads within the work piece with suflicient accuracy for certain types of work. That is to say, when the degree of accuracy capable of being accomplished by using the screw 10 is not required, a screw such as the screw 10a, may be employed. It should also be noted that the screw section 22a does not have as much resiliency as the screw section 22 because the screw section 22 is smaller in cross sectional area than the screw section 24, and therefore will more readily yield to pressure experienced during the initial application of the screw to the work.
Referring to Figures 6 and 7, it will be seen that l have disclosed a still further screw modification designated generally by the numeral 10?). This screw 1ncludes the usual threaded body 12?) and a pilot 16?) provided at the entering end thereof. A slot 20?) completely traverses the entering extremity of the screw, but only extends into the screw body a short distance. In fact, the slot 20?) only traverses a few of the threads in the screw body. For certain types of work a screw of the ty e shown in Figures 6 and 7 may be employed for cutting threads.
In Figures 8 to 10 inclusive I have shown still another screw modification designated generally by the numeral 100, which comprises a screw body 120 having a pair of oppositely disposed longitudinally extending slots 200, which are disposed in stag ered relation transversely of said screw ody, Figure 10. It will be seen that each of these slots 200 divides the screw body into a pair of screw sections22c and 240, the sections 20 being the advancing sections; and the sections 240, the cutting sections. It will be seen that one wall of each of the slots 200 is radial, while the other wall is laterally displaced with respect to a radial plane. Thus each of the screw sections 220 at its entering point is less in cross sectional area than the companion section 240. This relationship renders the screw sections 220 yieldable in response to the force acting thereon when the screw is applied to the unthreaded aperture of a workpiece. It will also be seen that the enterin extremity of the screw 100 conforms with t 1e shape of conventional die pointed screws inasmuch as it includes a pilot member 160, which merges with a chamf-ered or beveled portion 180.
From the foregoing it will be a parent that my invention contemplates tlie provision of a self-tapping screw of simple and practical design. The threads, being of conventional design, further serve to simplify the screw structure, and the presence of the pilot in combination with the bifurperformed. Again,
cated screw sections serves to materially expedite the entrance or insertion of the screw within the aperture of a work piece. By having the screw body cylindrical over practically its entire axial extent, with the possible exception of the small chamfered or beveled portion 18, maximum strength is insured, and uniformity in the threads is maintained over substantially the entire length of the screw body. The pilot serves to direct the following screw threads in their cutting action upon the work piece. By having the slot or recess within the screw substantially perpendicular to the plane of the thread helix, no misalinement of the threads in the companion screw sections is experienced, and hence the possibility of reaming is eliminated. However, in instances where extreme accuracy in thread dimension is not required, recesses of the type disclosed in Figures 4 to 7 inclusive may be employed.
Attention is directed to the fact that my improved self-tapping screw is rovided at its entering extremity with a s ape which conforms generally with the shape of die. pointed screws, and the chamfered or beveled portion which merges into the cylindrical pilot cuts away a certain portion of the screw threads, so that the portion of the threads included within the chamfer will be formed with a fiat surface which corresponds to the flat surface provided in conventional tapered taps and the like. By employingthis construction, the initial cutting of the work piece may be more easily I wish to urge that the action of my improved self-ta ping screw should be clearly distinguishe from conventional types of self-tap ing devices of this general class, in which t ore is no yielding of a section of the screw, and in which the screw threads are forced rather than out in the material. It should be apparent that self-tapping screws constructed in accordance with are particularly adaptable for use in brittle materials,,suc'h as Bakelite, slate, plaster of Paris, etc., wherein the threads must be cut and not merel forced into the material. Materialssuc as Bakelite, slate, and plaster of Paris tend to crack or crumble when force is applied thereto, but are readily adapted to have threads cut therein, as, for example, by employing my improved thread cutting screw. Attention is again directed to the fact that by providing the longitudinal slot within. the screw body and pilot a passage for cuttings is resented whic relieves against any ten ency of crowding, thereby avoiding any undue pressure upon the material in which the threads are beingcut.
Obviously screws having structural characteristics dlfiering from those disclosed in the teachings of my invention,
the present application, may be em loyed without departing from the spirit an scope of my present invention, said invention being limited only by the scopeaof the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A tapping screw fastener including a hardened threaded body portion, said body including a section having a cutting ed e and a yieldable section for increasing the cutting eiiectiveness of the edge of said other section, the entering end of the thread decreasing in external diameter.
2. A. tapping screw fastener including a hardened t readed body portion, said body including a section having a cutting edge and a yieldable section for increasing the cutting efi'ectiveness of the ed e on said other section, the entering end 0 the thread decreasing in external diameter, and a recessed pilot section extending beyond. the entering end of said thread.
3. A tapping screw fastener including, a hardened threaded body portion, said body including a section having a cutting edge and a yieldable section for increasing t e e on said cutting eiiectiveness of the ed the thread other section, the entering end 0 decreasing in ti a1 portion of the thread on said body having a constant root diameter.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto subscribed my name.

Good 3.6 /5 from 195 reviews
I was attending an even at the Convention center. This hotel was great...just one mile away
I stayed one night while traveling to Florida with my toddler son. The hotel was very clean, the room was very nice, and the bed was amazing! We would definitely stay here again on our next trip, maybe even on the way home!
Won't be back. Workers staying there, gathering in the parking lot and on the walkway to our room. I called the front desk. Was told area is monitored by cameras. After 10p we were awakened by people outside arguing back and forth. Ex: come here, I'm gonna f---k you up, etc. they were jumping on the walkway, shaking the floor. The place is clean and the staff was polite, but, I didn't feel safe there.
Was there for a tournament, and the room met our needs well. Only negative, was a lack of iron/ironing board
Outside of hotel looked new, Inside room not so much! There was hair all in the bath tub and a funky smell in the room! Will not return!
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Rajaratnam arrest triggers insider-trading crackdown
NEW YORK – US regulators and prosecutors are reportedly preparing for at least 10 more arrests as part of an insider-trading swoop on the US securities industry. More charges are expected against an alleged web of market abuse linked to hedge fund manager and billionaire Raj Rajaratnam, who was arrested by the FBI on October 16. Lawyers, fund managers and securities industry executives are understood to be among the next round of targets amid the two-year market abuse investigation. Sri Lankan-born...

Rice is such a simple pleasure. Whether you have a go-to Mexican rice recipe for taco night, heap brown rice in your stir-fry, or enjoy spicy red beans and rice, there are endless options. Maybe you grew up eating instant rice from a box (shudder) but these days, there are more types of this versatile grain available, and lots of great ways to use it. What you see on supermarket shelves is just a fraction of what's out there - at farmers markets and specialty stores you can find unique heirloom varieties in striking colors with fancy pedigrees. But for most meals, you can find what you need at the market. Basamati rice, traditionally eaten with Indian food, has a long thin grain and an intensely nutty aroma. Jasmine rice, often served with Thai dishes, is very fragrant, with a flavor that's almost floral. So get creative: A pilaf is nice, but what about wild rice studded with toasted almonds? Or a rich, creamy mushroom risotto made with short-grain Arborio rice? Long-grain varieties cook up light and fluffy, perfect for serving alongside a dinnertime stir-fry. And for dessert? Rice pudding, of course.See Popular Rice Recipes

As much as I would like to type up a witty New Year's greeting, I feel the best thing to say right now is: Thank you. Thank you for all the support each and every one of you have provided over the past year, despite the ups and downs. dotTech wouldn't be here without all you loyal dotTechies.
Being just over three years old now, I predict 2012 will be make or break for dotTech. 2012 will either see dotTech flourish into a tech bahamut (and in the process allowing me to make dotTech my day job, which would be awesome) or it will flicker away into the digital abyss, remembered as the website that could.
Happy New Year everybody!

The new approach to undergraduate digital signal processing education at Purdue is based on a simple idea: emphasize applications. Students are assumed to have a significant exposure to sampling and discrete-time signals, systems, and transforms at the junior level. In the senior course, the traditional digital signal processing topics of digital filter design, the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), radix-2 fast Fourier transforms (FFTs), and quantization are covered in the first five weeks of the semester. Coverage of these topics is augmented by treatment in the laboratory component of the course using diverse software tools and by Matlab-based homework assignments. The remainder of the course is devoted to treating the topics of speech processing and image processing in substantial depth and involves a design project. The course has been very successful in terms of increasing enrolment and outstanding student evaluations

"God is good, all the time. All the time, God is good."
These are words you will hear every Sunday at Groce. You can think of them as a pep talk before the sermon starts. Our purpose is to build the family of God through praising God, bringing others to Christ, teaching the faith, strengthening the fellowship, and sending forth in service. Just a few simple requests we ask of members and friends. To be part of the family of God is such a great feeling. We offer so many opportunities for you to participate. To begin with, we have two worship services on Sunday, 8:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. These are times to come together as a congregation and give thanks and praise to God. Through prayer, lessons and music we allow the Holy Spirit to flow through us. Both adults and children may join our music ministry, led by our Music Director and includes four choirs, vocalists and instrumentalists.

Grumley's Gifts and Petals Network Pty Ltd and their Members reserve
the right to make fair and reasonable substitutions according to the
practical availability of items and containers worldwide. This
document outlines Grumleys Gifts and Petals Network's Policy for
Order Substitutions as a guideline for Members.
When a florist Member receives a flower order from Petals Network or Grumley's Gifts, every effort must be made to create an arrangement of the shape, size and colour and using any flower varieties specified, according to the order description. Specific flower types may be indicated on the order, either by actual description or in the content of an item from the Petals Network Selection Guide.
In the case where a specific flower type or colour is unavailable within the given time frame of delivery, substitutions may be made within the arrangement to achieve the same overall shape, style and colour effect and to ensure that the order is delivered on time.
Except where the customer has indicated that there be no substitution, Petals members will always give priority in decreasing order of importance to:
Flowers of a similar shape, size and value but different
type and colour may be used if other flowers in the arrangement substitute for
that colour and the overall effect of the arrangement is maintained.
In arrangements of a single flower variety (eg rose
bouquet), the flower variety will take precedence over colour.
A second choice is highly recommended for all orders to allow for any difficulty in supplying the order to exact specification and to avoid unnecessary delays in delivery. This is especially important for orders of Roses, Tropical and Natives.
Orders must always be done to the full retail value of the order.
The images shown on the website are a representation of the item that will be sent. Although we display a list of contents of each basket/gift we also reserve the right to substitute products that may be unavailable or out of stock, without notice to the customer, but we guarantee the replacement item will be to equal or greater value than the original item.
If the item ordered in a for a baby and no colour preference has been made in the order a neutral selection will be sent. There will be no complaints/replacements entered into if the colour was not given on the original order.
Quality complaints must be received within 2 weeks of delivery. A quality complaint is anything to do with an order that was delivered including but not limited to poor quality, missing items, expired items, wrong items, and value of items and so on. A photo is highly recommended for quick resolution to quality complaints.
Non delivery complaints must be received within 2 months of the delivery date.
Complaints received after this time frame will be considered on an individual basis, however after this time there is no guarantee of compensation.

We're talking here about one of the MOST (justifiably so) hated companies in the entire world, that's destroyed the Gulf Coast of America for denturies to come, and you're still buying their stock! Just because they spend millions on their #$%$ advertising, you believe that #$%$? Sure, the beaches and surface have been cleaned up to make it look good estheticall and superficially to humans. But, the fish/shellfish will be eating oil and deterents for the next 100 years. And guess what? Those pretty shrimp you're eating (down there or here frozen) are full of oil/etc). Please don't believe the commercials and please don't buy any frozen shrimp that comes from the Gulf. Live longer.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
C2bfit, are you one of those eco-nazis? Most of the big names, people like Al Gore or the higher-ups in Green Peace, are busy jet setting around the world and burning up BP's fuel in their SUV's; making a lot of money for themselves.
C2bfit, do you also advocate the reduction in the world's population? Whom would you choose to eliminate? I'm sure that you aren't on the list. I'm so sick you environmentalists that have taken it up as a religious cause.
C2bit, have you forgotten about the Exxon Valdez, numerous refinery explosions, all vehicle emissions? Do you drive a car at all or do you use natural gas? If so, what company do you buy your fuel products from?
Or are your rules for the rest of us and not for yourself. Just curious as to where you are coming from.
do you drive on americas highways? i cant believe you do!!!! so many people have died building these highways, and so many people have been taken advantage of with poor working conditions and low pay. not to even mention what these millions of miles of cemet and asphalt have done to animals and the environment. what about all the processes involved in making the concrete and asphalt that pollute the air and the equipment used to transport it and lay it down, MY GOD where does it end? industrialisation is the devil!!!!!!
BP is the DEVIL... Corrupt as always and Incompetent to say the least.
What's an invester?
bbb22209 you are beyond pathetic, just like BP...Money... more important than people's live. Sickbasterd

Brock McCourt got lucky when it came to finding a job after being locked up on felony drug, weapon and burglary convictions.
The 31-year-old from Wasilla, who became addicted to methamphetamine after his father died in 2008, happened to meet a manager from the Travelodge Hotel on the day he was released from Lemon Creek Correctional Center to a Juneau halfway house. He was hired as a housekeeper.
"That got me started," McCourt said of his first job after prison, adding he is now sober, works in construction and is able to provide for himself and his family.
Who needs granite stones approved by the World Curling Federation when you can use rocks from Lena Beach? Who needs an indoor ice curling sheet when you can make a rink on a frozen lake? Who needs a perfect circular "house" for a target when you have a beer can?
This is curling, Juneau style.
A group of friends, who would normally be out skiing and snowboarding if not for a recent stretch of snowless weather, have built a miniature curling rink on Auke Lake. It's proved to be quite the attraction.
City prosecutors have charged a downtown novelty shop owner for failing to file and remit city sales taxes in a timely manner.
Prosecutors said the owner of Mystik Treasures on Franklin Street, 37-year-old Sarah Graves, failed to file and remit city sales tax returns for seven consecutive quarters ending in August 2013.
Graves is facing 14 misdemeanor criminal charges, half for failing to file and the other half for failing to remit, for each missed quarter. She is scheduled to be arraigned in Juneau District Court in April.
A Washington man accused of supplying heroin to a drug ring in Ketchikan pleaded guilty Wednesday in Juneau federal court.
Wayne Gary Sherman, 43, changed his plea before U.S. District Court Judge Timothy Burgess and admitted to conspiring to distribute heroin.
A 23-year-old man was arrested Monday for making obscene phone calls to female employees at a Juneau elementary school, a public library and the Juneau Empire.
City prosecutors charged William T. Hitchens with multiple counts of misdemeanor harassment after a five-month police investigation that linked the three cases with phone records from communication providers.
A restaurant is the last place you'd think to get a haircut.
But that's exactly where Juneau firefighters will be getting a new 'do later this month as they shave their heads to show solidarity with kids with cancer.
Capital City Fire/Rescue firefighters will be participating in one of St. Baldrick's Foundation's signature head-shaving events on March 15 at the downtown Juneau eatery Salt to raise money for childhood cancer research.
Drug mule pleads guilty to possessing heroin
A Juneau man accused of attempting to traffic heroin into the capital city through the Juneau International Airport has pleaded guilty to a felony.
The Auke Bay Fire Station received a new handheld thermal imaging camera last week, in large part thanks to a Juneau woman who helped organize a fundraiser, firefighters said.
Capital City Fire/Rescue spokesman Tom Matthews said Tee Harbor resident Judy Neary organized a drive to raise 40 percent of the $4,964 piece of equipment, which measures body heat and allows firefighters to locate victims in low-to-no visibility conditions. The Auke Bay Volunteer Fire Association raised the rest of the money.
When Judge Timothy Burgess gaveled U.S. District Court into session Monday afternoon, it was before a packed courtroom. But the crowd seated in the wooden pews weren't spectators listening in on a trial, or a jury pool waiting to be selected for service.
In the old Pelican Seafoods, Inc. crab plant — a huge dilapidated aluminum building next to the largely defunct fish processing plant on the west end of 1.7-mile long town — Steve Daniels walked through the egg room, formerly used to process salmon eggs, and the salt room, a storage space used to preserve fish caught by commercial fleets fishing in Cross Sound.
A machine to cut the heads off halibut, assembly slime lines, heavy industrial scales and high blast freezers all sit unused in the 40,000-square-foot building that has been shuttered for the past four years.

Boomin' Shuttle & Limousine
REVIEWS(2)Top ▲
Updated: 1/3/2014
This was, by far, the best NYE for us; Thank you Boomin' Shuttle & Limo! For one, we received the absolute BEST rates for our NYE shindig! This was the only company who did not mandate us to "charter" the limo for the whole time. Besides the affordable rate, the service was phenomenal. The limo was clean, fully stocked with water, spacious and comfortable (we rented the 14 passenger SUV). in spite of the snowy weather, we arrived safe and sound! Even when we had a slight issue at the venue (NOT because of the limo), the driver waited for us to troubleshoot our problems before she left (just in case we could not get in). Overall, I was awed with the company's willingness to work with us (and our 13 other passengers). The driver was helpful, courteous, clear about her expectations and beyond delightful. This is my #1 recommendation for limo services in the 847 and surrounding area!
Great Company!Posted: 4/2/2008
Boomin Shuttle made our experience fantastic! Everything was easy to plan, great rates, and he was on time for everything. The limo was clean and smoke free and kept us entertained!! My friends and I had a blast! Thanks Boomin!

The Treehouse
Culver Street West (at /in front of Halifax), Colchester, England,
From October to December 2012, no Saturday stall in Colchester but they have stalls in town centre. Also available for take away orders with the possibility of delivery in town centre. Offers event catering. Exclusively selling vegan food for takeaway, such as wraps, salads, sausage rolls, samosa, and vegan cakes. Previously on Long Wyre Street.
Reviews (3)First Review by liz554
Amazing food - Edit
The best "sausage roll" I have ever tasted, amazing treats too x x yummtastic x x
Yummy varied stall and great staff - Edit
I went to the Treehouse stall today and boyght a slice of their puff pastry pizza with roasted veg-it was delicious! There were a good variety of other things on offer too(falafel wraps, sausage rolls, lots of vegan cupcakes (!)-and even ice coffee!) ALl the prices seemed very reasonable. Plus the staff on the stall were really friendly and chatty, and seemed to be making an effort to engage with all their customers, which is always nice to see. It's great to finally have somewhere selling vegan takeaway food in Colchester. I'll definitely be returning to support this vegan business :)
Pros: Good variety, Yummy food!, Good Prices
Cons: Only open one day per week!
About time! - Edit
Its so good to finally see something veggie in Colchester.
I had a hummus pitta, which came with loads of salad, and really nice home-made hummus. I also tried one of the vegan cupcakes, which was amazing!
I really hope that the veggies of Colchester support Treehouse so that it is here for a long time to come.

If dining well means knowing that the food you eat is fresh from local farms, woods, or waters, then dining better still means experiencing nature's bounty firsthand—picking the ripe crops, discovering the wild ones, even diving to the ocean floor in pursuit of dinner. No wonder food travel is such a hot ticket and food lovers are flocking to a wide range of hotel- and resort-sponsored, uniquely personal culinary experiences.

text: Older Mothers Cause Spike in Birth Defect RateTracie Egan Morrissey2/06/13 12:20pmFiled to: PregnancyStudiesMotherhoodtweet462EditInvite manuallyPromoteDismissUndismissHideShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink The overall rate of congenital birth defects has increased by 50 percent since 1984, according to a new study that suggests the cause is women having babies later in life through assisted reproductive technology.The study, published in the journal BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, reviewed data of 5.4 million births from 14 different European countries between 1984 and 2007. Researchers found that along with the overall rate of birth defects increasing, the risk was 27 percent higher in twins and other multiples than with single births. Professor Helen Dolk, co-author of the study, says this is meaningful as it indicates the role that in vitro fertilization has played in the issue. IVF has enabled older women, past their their prime child bearing years, to give birth. There was no mention in the report of whether or not advances in technology to keep special-needs children alive or enable mothers to carry them to term has had any kind of affect on the stats.
