This invention relates to toy tanks having turrets and cannons and more particularly such tanks which include articulated track members for movably supporting same in a realistic fashion. Known toys with tracks such as toy tanks, tractors or the like having track type support members generally include reversed rubber cog belts which convey the idea but are not accurate representations of actual track mechanisms either in terms of function or performance in operation. Similarly, such track type tanks rarely include a pivotable turret with an automatic feeding and dispensing system for projectiles.
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a toy tank with a pivotable turret which includes an articulated multi-element track system that is able to follow the contours of the surface terrain.
Moreover it is a further object of the invention to provide a toy tank with a turret that includes an automatic projectile containing and feeding system which operates to load the breech of the cannon when same is cocked.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a realistic toy cannon which functions in a realistic manner thereby stimulating the user's imagination.
The aforesaid realism is achieved by a toy tank which includes an articulated multi-element track system and a projectile containing, feeding and dispensing system. The tank has a chassis with a generally hollow body portion supporting for pivotal movement an upper turret portion. The body portion has a top flat turret platform and depending spaced parallel walls which carry the suspension means for the track system. Through the mid-portions of the walls are a series of pivotable pins which support for parallel swinging movement against the outside of the walls trailing arms on the lower ends of each are axles for rotatable rollers. Mounted above the pivot pins along the upper portions of the walls are idlers carried for rotatable movement about their axes. Two tracks carry the toy tank by forming elongated chain loops about the idlers and rollers. To tension the tracks the roller pivot pins are biased by inner arms which extend parallel to the inside of the walls; these arms are pivotable about the axis of their pins and are urged by resilient members to cause the rollers to engage their respective tracks. The rearmost idlers on each wall are adapted to remove any slack in the track chain loops caused by variations in the contours against which they run by biasing the upper portions of each track.
The turret carries a cannon and an automatic containing and feeding system for the projectiles to be dispensed through the cannon. The cannon bore mates with a plunger having a companion crossection. The plunger is fully cocked slightly beyond the breech of the bore and it is the movement of the plunger that is used to move the projectiles through the feeding and containing system to the breech of the cannon. Specifically, as the plunger is pulled to its cocked position, a cable connected between the plunger and a shuttling pawl draws the pawl and projectiles carried thereby toward the breech. Whereby the projectiles are moved from the containing portion of the system along a feeding channel to a ramp from where they roll into the breech. Release of the plunger will eject the breech loaded projectile through the cannon bore.

FIG. 1 shows a tank 10 which includes a hollow body 11 atop which is carried a pivotal turret 12. The tank 10 includes chassis 13 which has a pair of upright walls 13a and 13b. Upon walls 13a and 13b is carried a suspension system 14 and more particularly extending through the upper portions of walls 13a and 13b are a series of pins 15 of cylindrical configuration which are normal to walls 13a and 13b. Connected to the outer end of each pin 15 is an outer arm 16 and connected to the inner end of each pin 15 is an inner arm 17. Outer arms 16 extend in trailing relation relative to the direction of travel of the tank 10 and carry at their extreme lower end, opposite the end at which pin 15 is connected, a roller axle 19 about which rides a disc shaped roller 20 in substantially parallel relation to the walls either 13a or 13b. Inner arms 17 extend parallel to and juxtaposed with the insides of walls 13a or 13b and act as a moment arm to be resiliently biased thereby placing each pin 15 in torsion to bias outer arms 16 downwardly relative to the body 11. As will be explained later the biasing is caused by resilient members 18 hooked between arms 17 and walls 13a or 13b. Consequently, rollers 20 carried on roller axle bearings 19 are biased downward to act as the prime elements of the suspension system 14 in carrying resiliently the weight of the tank 10. Each roller 20 has a circumferential groove 20a which guides a track system 21.
Each track system 21 is composed of a series of hingeably connected elongated track links 22, see FIGS. 1 or 2. The track links 22 are of interlocking configuration in that one side of each has a "C" shape which encloses an extending tab of an adjacent link within the mouth of the "C". Thus the adjacent links 22 interlock and cooperate by means of transversely disposed link hinge pins 23. A series of links 22 are hinge connected end to end to form a closed loop chain which forms a track for one side of the tank 10. Each link 22 is elongated such that its width to length ratio is approximately 21/2 to 1; the width being the distance between the adjacent parallel hinge pins 23. The closed loop track system 21 forms a flexible chain like member of adequate surface to support the tank 10.
Extending inwardly from each track link 22 is a normally disposed cylindrical locating pin 24 for locating each track link 22 transversely relative to rollers 20. That is to say that, each track locating pin 24 is positioned to align in the circumferential groove 20a as it passes a roller 20. The track locating pins 24 are seen in FIG. 1 wherein an extra supply of hingeably connected track links 22 are stored on a track fender 25a horizontally extending above the track system 21 and normal to wall 13a, or similarly, on a fender 25b which extends normally from the upper side of wall 13b.
In order to maintain a taut condition in the track systems 21 against the tensioned rollers 20, there are four spool shaped idlers 27 carried by the upper portion of each wall 13a and 13b in parallel relation. The front three idlers 27 are carried on outwardly extending axles 27a that are cantilever and normal to either the upper exterior side of wall 13a or 13b. The idlers 27 rotate freely about their respective axles 27a. Each idler 27 carries a circumferential groove 27b which cooperates with the track locating pins 24 in the manner described in connection with rollers 20 and each idler 27 is positioned in spaced relation relative to its adjacent idler so as to support the upper inside of its respective track system 21 from sagging and interferring with any roller arm 16 or any roller 20.
At the rear upper inside corner of each track system 21 another spool like idler 28 is carried for horizontal longitudinal movement relative to tank 10. Each rear idler 28 is supported for free rotary movement on a slidable rear axel pin 29 which rests in a longitudinal grooves disposed in the rear upper portions of either wall 13a or 13b. Axle pin 29 is tensioned rearwardly by resilient member 30 to keep constant pressure on the inside surface of track system 21 thereby relieving any tendency to sag or have slack in said system.
The techniques for biasing the rollers 20 and the rear idler 28 are best disclosed in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4. For simplicity and low cost the resilient members 18 used for the rollers 20 are in the nature of flexible resilient loops such as rubber bands. It will be appreciated that any form of spring member can be used or adapted for use to bias the various components of the tank 10. In the preferred embodiment as shown in FIG. 2, the inner arms 17 are equipped with a knob 17a located at the end opposite the connection between arm 17 and pin 15. Carried on the inner surfaces of either wall 13a or 13b are a series of adjustable supports 31 for resilient members 18. Each support 31 is arranged for restrained pivotable movement on either wall 13a or 13b. That is to say that, the supports form an adjustable positionable locating means for one end of each resilient member 18. The other end of the member 18 is hooked about the knob 17a whereby tension adjustment of resilient member 18 can be easily made by rotating the respective support 31, see FIG. 2. The operation of the tensioned rollers 20 are shown in FIG. 2 wherein the various resilient members 18 are extended in accordance with the load placed upon each roller 20 which is caused by the articulated conformation of the track system 21 with the terrain. Shown in FIG. 4 is a slightly modified roller tensioning system for the front roller 20; it is necessary because of the limited space. More particularly, the inner arm 17 is "C" shaped such that the mouth of the "C" or curve clears the pin 15 of the front roller 20. The pin 15 extends through and into the chassis 13 to the area between walls 13a and 13b. A floor 13c located between the bottoms of walls 13a and 13b supports a pair of longitudinal inside support walls 32 and 33 for walls 13b and 13a respectively, see FIGS. 1, 3 and 4. The purpose of walls 32 and 33 is primarily to locate the insidemost ends of pins 15 in order to overcome any cantilever loads which might be imposed upon them. Wall 32 is shown; a similar wall 33 which cooperates with the pins 15 that extend through the wall 13a is not shown, but is identical.
The tensioning means for one rear idler 28 is shown in FIG. 3 there is a similar system for both rear idlers 28. More particularly, between inner wall 32 and the inside of wall 13b there is a slidable link or track tensioner 34 which at its rearmost end supports in bearing type fashion a sliding axle pin 29 for the rear idler 28. A horizontal longitudinal slot 35 for the inner end of the sliding pin 29 is provided in the inner wall 32. Slot 35 is similar in configuration to an equivalent slot in wall 13b (not shown) thus the sliding pin 29 is permitted to move and carry the track tensioner fore and aft with it when necessary. The track tensioner 34 is resiliently biased rearwardly in order to maintain constant tension in the track system 21 by a coil tension spring 30. Spring 30 connects between bottom of the track tensioner 34 and the rear floor 13c of the chassis 13. The track tensioner 34 is an elongated plate like link with a front tongue portion which is positioned for sliding beneath the pin 15 for the first roller 20 immediately in front of the rear idler. The tongue of the track tensioner 34 is provided to guide the tensioner in its movement fore and aft without allowing rotation. The rear idler 28 is constantly biased rearward and acts to remove the slack in the track system 21; while not shown the tensioning system for the track which rides against wall 13a is identical.
In FIG. 1 the turret 12 is shown pivoted relative to the body 11. The turret 12 is basically a hollow structure consisting of a pair of sides 12a, a front and a rear 12b and a floor 12c. Through the front wall 12a of the turret 12 is an aiming system 36 which consists of a gun barrel or cannon 37 and a plunger 38 of crossection compatable to the cannon bore rides therein and extends rearwardly through the turret 12 and out the rear 12b. The plunger 38 includes a plunger stop 38a which stops the plunger 38 in its forwardly most position against the rear wall 12b. The stop 38a consists of transverse peg 39 and a pair of washers which are resilient such that the stopping of plunger 38 is cushioned as it moves to its forwardmost position. Plunger 38 is connected between the inside of the turret 12 near the front 12b and the medial portion of the plunger by means of a resilient member 40 or rubber band. The interconnection of plunger 38 and member 40 is adjustable so that the plunger force is adjustable. That is to say that, an adjustable retainer 41, being an elongated pin, cooperates with holes 38b positioned vertically along and through the mid portion of the plunger 38. Whereby the location of retainer 41 can be shifted from one hole 38b to the next to adjust the tension as desired for varing the force for the plunger 38 in cannon 37, see FIG. 6.
A pair of "U" shaped supports 42 rest upon the floor 12c of the turret 12 and carry horizontally disposed plunger support rods 43 which longitudinally extend within the turret 12 from the inside of the turret front 12b to the inside of the turret back 12b. The rods 43 and "U" shaped supports 42 act to guide the plunger when it is withdrawn from the bore of the cannon 37 and is at its rearwardmost position. The plunger 38 forms an opening inbetween it and the rear of the cannon 37 that opening is called the breech 44. The breech 44 is located beneath a slot 45 that extends longitudinally and through the closure or top 12d of the turret 12. Projectiles 46 which are brought into alignment with slot 45 are fed directly into the breech 44 if the plunger 38 is in its rearwardmost position and the breech 44 is open.
There is also a projectile feeding and containing system 47 adapted to be carried atop the turret closure 12d and in alignment with slot 45. The feeding and containing system 47 is best shown in FIG. 1; system 47 includes a magazine or shell container portion 48 and a shell transport slot or channel 49. The channel 49 and the magazine 48 are in the same plane but are arranged normal to one another such that the frontmost shell in the magazine is aligned longitudinally with the rear end of channel 49. A shuttle mechanism 50 is provided to move the projectiles 46 from the magazine through the channel 49 to a ramp 51. Ramp 51 is inclined downwardly to deliver projectiles 46 into slot 45 and thus to breech 44 of the cannon 37. The ramp 51 is inclined toward the slot 45 such that when the projectile 46 is feed by the shuttle mechanism 50 through the channel 49 and it reaches the front thereof; it hits ramp 51 and rolls down into the slot 45.
The shuttle mechanism 50 includes a sliding pawl 52 which is adapted to ride within the center of channel 49. The pawl 52 is arranged to move freely up and down relative to the channel 49. Pawl 52 includes a pair of vertically spaced openings for controlling and containing projectiles 46 during movement (in a forward direction only) through the channel 49, see FIGS. 7, 8 and 9. The foregoing is accomplished by means of angled teeth 52a that extend downwardly into the channel 49 and carry projectiles 46. The front surface 52b of each tooth 52 is vertical and acts to push a projectile 46 while the rear surface 52c of each tooth 52 is inclined and acts to cam pawl 52 upwardly over the projectiles 46 when the pawl 52 is moved in a rearwardly direction. Pawl 52 can only move projectiles 46 in a forward direction. Pawl 52 is carried in an upright vertical position by a pair of wire bails 53 which are mounted on a pair of vertically disposed pawl guides 54. Guides 54 are attached to a horizontal pawl plate 55 in a parallel spaced front to back relation for guiding the pawl 52 within the channel 49 and for permitting free up and down and controlled fore and aft movement of the pawl 52. Bails 53 are pivotally carried on guides 54 to extend between them and over pawl 52. Longitudinal grooves 56 are provided on the outsides of the walls of channel 49 for guiding the pawl plate 55. More particularly, there are cooperating groove lugs 57 which engage the grooves 56 to assure that the pawl plate 55 rides in alignment with the channel 49. Bails 53 connect to guides 54 by inwardly extending parts 53a which fit within holes in the pawl guides 54 such that the bails 53 are free to rotate about their ends 53a. In their most vertical position they permit the pawl 52 to move upwardly enough to clear the diameter of projectile 46 whereby the pawl can skip rearwardly across the projectiles 46 and can be aligned for dropping down and catching additional projectiles for movement of same forwardly in the channel 49. Thus, in a shuttle fashion, the pawl 52 moves rearwardly to catch two projectiles (one already in the channel 49 and one at the forwardmost position in the magazine 48) before moving same through the channel 49 to the ramp 51 for loading into the breech 44. The projectiles 46 are contained in side to side relation in the magazine and are biased toward channel 49. There is shown a pusher 48a and its associated drive handle 48b which extend through the side wall of the magazine 48 at the lower hole 60 therein shown. A retaining rod 48c shown in FIG. 9 extends through upper hole 61 across the top of magazine 48 above the projectiles 46 to retain them, see FIGS. 5 and 9.
The movement of the shuttle is controlled by a cable 58 which is connected between the plunger and the shuttle plate 55 whereby the cable 58 is caused to pull the shuttle forward as the plunger 38 is drawn rearward for cocking. Thus, as the plunger 38 is cocked the shuttle moves forwardly to carry projectiles 46, loaded in the magazine 48, through the channel 49 to the ramp 51. The cable 48 is aligned between the plunger 38 and the plate 55 by means of a cable pulley 59 mounted to the front of the feeding and containing system 47, see FIG. 1. Pulley 59 is carried for rotary movement about a vertical axis whereby the cable 58 extends forwardly from the plunger 38 around pulley 59 and then rearwardly to the leading edge of the pawl plate 55 thus rearward motion of the plunger 38 is translated into forward and equivalent motion of the shuttle mechanism 50.
While what has been shown and described is the preferred embodiment of the tank 10 those skilled in the art will no doubt appreciate that variations and modifications to the basic concept can be made without deviating from the invention in its broader aspects. That is to say that, the resilient members could be springs and the components could be manufactured of various shapes or materials which would perform the intended functions in similar or identical fashion but which would appear different in design. What is intended to be protected is included in the claims which follow.

Response of the European forests to extreme climatic events predicted for the 21st century: sensitivity to climate models and their variability
- Authors
- Publication Date
- Keywords
- Disciplines
Significant climatic changes are currently observed and, according to projections, will be strengthened over the 21st century throughout the world with the enhanced greenhouse effect. Climate will be generally warmer with notably changes in the seasonality and in the precipitation regime. The CARAIB dynamic vegetation model is used to evaluate and analyse the potential impacts of climate change on forests ecosystems in Europe. Changes in the hydrological budget as well as in the intensity and the frequency of wildfires and their effects on forest productivity and distribution are especially assessed. CARAIB is driven by the ARPEGE-Climat model and some other regional climate models from the European Union (EU) project ENSEMBLES forced with IPCC A1B emission scenario. Climate projections indicate changes in variability and frequency of extreme events. Since climate variability governs the response of plant species (e.g. net primary productivity, NPP) to climate change, we analyse the climate variability (seasonal and interannual) given by climate models comparing it with the observed climate variability (CRU TS 3.0 historical climate dataset) over the period 1961-1990. The variability modelled by the ARPEGE-Climat model is notably slightly more pronounced than the observed one, at least for some areas. Since discrepancies between modelled and observed current climate variability may affect NPP variability calculated for the future as well as the intensity and the frequency of severe drought period and wildfires, comparing the forest ecosystem evolutions obtained with a range of climate models allows improving the assessment of climate change impacts on forest in the future.

Last night's episode of Project Runway was my favorite of the season. This is for one reason and one reason only--Tim Gunn. Look at him in his apron while visiting Carol Hannah and family for a home-cooked southern meal. Isn't he cute? Don't you just want your own personal Tim Gunn?
Anyway, last we saw them, Carol Hannah, Irina and Althea were sent their separate ways with $9000 and a few months to create a twelve piece collection for Bryant Park. This episode focused mainly on Tim's home visits to check each designer's progress and to help guide them on their way.
He started with Carol Hannah who moved to Huntington. On her way there from South Carolina she stopped at Duke University where she was inspired by the architecture and cool lighting. I'm not sure how she decided to go for a collection full of whimsy from architecture, but that's what she did. Tim mostly like the collection, except for a matronly capelet.
After this, Carol Hannah invited Tim to eat a good southern meal with her family, but he'd have to help (see above picture). While at the table Carol revealed that she had been an awkward kid and had taught herself to design. Her grandmother was a seamstress, and Carol Hannah would spend hours watching her work. She learned to make doll clothes and gained confidence by sewing clothes for herself. Tim left her with the parting thoughts that he liked her collection but she should be careful not to over think and add too much that would take away the elegance of the collection.
Next up, Tim headed to Irina's New York City apartment to check on her collection. Irina, inspired by her childhood in Coney Island, decided to make her collection a a tribute to the city. She incorporated print t-shirts with scenes from Coney Island to mix with her elegant, high end collection. The effect seemed like it could turn out quite cool. She also created some stunning knits, which I would like to own.
When meeting with her friend and family at Irina's favorite restaurant, Tim got a little insight into Irina's struggle to become a designer. Irina's mother has always supported her dream. Irina's father has not been so supportive. She hopes winning project runway will show him she can make it and earn approval. This brings out a whole new side to Irina and her determination to win.
Tim then moved on to Dayton, OH to see Althea. She stayed close to home to create her collection. Althea took her inspiration from strong women in Sci-fi movies, which I'm not sure showed. She also had some great knits (uh-oh, Irina will think you copied...), but Tim warned her not to wander in to costume territory with her designs. "Edit. Edit. Edit." he said.
During dinner with her family, we learned that Althea had wanted to be an artist as a child. She loved to draw people and enjoyed drawing their clothes. This started her into designing. In high school she would just whip up a shirt for her sister if she had nothing to wear.
Irina did have one little hiccup. The images for her Coney Island shirts were trademarked so she had to recreate her own version. It looks like they came out nice though.
After all this, they met up in New York to prepare for fashion week. Carol Hannah was delayed because he had a stomach flu, but she pushed through (with a few tears). The designers cast their models (blah, blah, blah boring part) and and got a visit from Michael and Nina for a pep talk. Once the pep talk was through, Heidi came in with Tim to crush all hopes and dreams by telling the designer they had one last surprise.
This is never a surprise. There is always one last look to be made right before fashion week. It happens every season. Why does everyone always look surprised by this. Why don't the designer create a design for one more piece in anticipation of this. Why do they complain? Why do they looked shocked? (Well, the producers probably told them to do that).
Of course, Tim would never really crush dreams. The last three designers kicked off were brought back for help. Althea chose Logan (sorry Carol Hannah), Irina chose Gordana (which is a crazy advantage since Gordana is great at finishing things) and Carol Hannah got Christopher (but seemed very pleased). We'll have to wait until next week to see how these final outfits turn out and if any fights broke out between the pairings. I do believe that Irina & Gordana are the best pairing. I hope having two self-taught designers in a pair won't hurt Carol Hannah's final look. I find it odd that Althea chose Logan even though she was so mad about him copying her zipper collar. Of course, this may have been a good move because if you have a person helping you make a garment, it is helpful to have someone who can emulate your style.
I'm not sure who will triumph. I'm leaning toward Irina, but Carol Hannah might have something. I feel a little disappointed with Althea's collection, but I haven't had a close enough look at it to be sure.
Fun fact: the real Mood has a dog named Swatch! How awesome is that?
Who do you think will win? Who are you rooting for? Don't you love Tim Gunn? (The correct answer to that last on is YES!)

I totally geeked out when they mentioned Swatch the dog. Cutest thing ever. I don't know, I think I'm rooting for Carol Hannah at this point. Tim Gunn has never been so informal and goofy, and I love it!

I do want my very own Tim Gunn! He's adorable.
I really like both Althea and Carol Hannah, but will be surprised if Irina doesn't win. I really think she's the best designer and seamstress. - November 17, 2009 at 3:13 PM

Ahhh...The most popular repair method preferred by many Xbox 360 owners worldwide, the X-clamp fix.
So, let's get to the meat and potatoes of this article and show you exactly what you're going to need and do to get the job done.
X Clamp Step 1:
You're going to want to completely take your console apart, now this may seem a bit complicated or intimidating at first, but it's not as half as difficult as you might think.
There's allot to explain with taking apart your Xbox 360, so I'll just go over the basic how to's of what you have to do. But, first things first, be extremely careful when taking your console apart, make sure to separate each part and you can either label or number your parts in sequence, so when you're putting things back together, it won't seem like to much to remember and also find a few household tools, you'll need a pair of basic pliers, both Philips screwdriver and flat head screw driver and a set of spring washers mini screw kit,(cost about $2.00 bucks at any hardware store), that's about it, you can browse around different videos on YouTube or other video sharing sites and find all kinds of hooligans taking apart their consoles to give you a good idea of how to do it.
X Clamp Step 2: Taking the original x clamp and heat sink of the main circuit board.
When you finally get to the point where you can lift the main circuit board away from the console's shell, what you're going to want to do is gently flip it over, grabbing your regular flat head screwdriver, easily prying each end of the x clamp off until all 4 ends are loose. Then flip the circuit board over and pull the heat sink off, next, untwist the screws in the heat sink.
X Clamp Step 3:
Take the washers and place them on your screws then put them in the heat sink holes with the tip on the bottom of the circuit board so you can screw them in, you can either place some sort of masking tape to temporarily hold them in place while you flip the board back over to put the heat sink back into position, then gently screwing each screw 2 turns a piece, do not tighten each screw individually, rotate each screw until all 4 are securely fashioned.
X Clamp Step 4: There is no step 4, that's all there is to it.
Now, obviously, this article isn't the best when it comes to giving you graphical images to picture while doing it, it's probably lacking a few details here and there as well.
That's why it's recommended you learn the steps from a pro, with an entire series of videos, pictures and plans to make everything as easy as possible for you, from taking a simple screw out to finally hitting the power button, so the best advice you can take is to scrape up $30 bucks and get the guide that's helping people everywhere play their Xbox 360's again, without worrying about hardware failures or other common Xbox problems happening, because not only will it show you how to properly use the X clamp technique, but will also show you every single repair method you can think of, when it comes to fixing a broken Xbox 360.

Hot Plate
Talking Turkey: A wrapped-in-plastic turkey sandwich that dares to cost $5 had better be fabulous. Luckily for us all, the one at the Empire Baking Company [1616 Post Oak Boulevard, (713)871-9779] deserves every penny of its price tag. Peppers are the dominant motif: Green slivers of jalapeño speckle the exemplary cheese bread; black pepper enlivens the thin-sliced turkey; and a red-pepper mayo adds even more zip. Somehow all that heat manages to be subtle and complicated, leaving you able to appreciate the creaminess of the Monterey Jack, the freshness of the little Roma tomatoes, the almost excessive greenness of the leaf lettuce. And how do they slice Bermuda onions so thin?

Ford recently unveiled some new details about its 2015 F-150, including performance numbers for two of the engine options for the updated truck.
Although there will be four different engine options on the new F-150, the biggest news came on the all-new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6. The new motor, which will be offered along with the 3.5-liter V6 (for which power numbers have yet to be released), is claimed to produce 325 hp and 375 lb.-ft. of torque. Ford says the maximum tow rating for its 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 is 8,500 pounds. Ford also notes that all towing numbers for the 2015 F-150 are certified using SAE J2807 standards.
Ford also released information on the naturally-aspirated 3.5-liter V6, which will produce 283 horsepower and 255 lb.-ft. of torque with a tow rating of 7,600 pounds. As our sister site AutoGuide reports, that puts all three half-tons from Detroit at the same 7,600 maximum tow rating for their naturally aspirated V6 engines.
The Ford-150 will feature a massive shift in its overall construction in 2015, as Ford announced earlier this year that the truck will feature an aluminum body in an effort to shed weight and improve fuel economy. For example, Ford says its 2015 F-150 Lariat weighs 732 pounds less than a 2014 F-150 Lariat, with the 15 weighing in with a 4,942-pound curb weight. Ford says that roughly 500 pounds of lost weight came from the body of the F-150, while 130 pounds were dropped from the powertrain and another 70 from the frame.
With all of the weight savings, Ford decided to drop its larger 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 for 2015, instead leaving that for its Super Duty line. Although a 5.0-liter V8 will still be available on the 2015 truck, as well as a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, Ford has not yet released performance information on those engines.

DS28 - Brushless DC Motor (slotless)New
Instead of pole shoes, DS28 slotless motors have a flat winding on the inside of their ring-shaped stator. Since there is no iron core, the motor's inductance is very low, there is no cogging torque and no torque ripple. In addition, iron losses are greatly reduced and the motor's efficiency rating is higher.
DS28 motors are available in two lengths and in two versions: with Hall sensors and A-shaft or without Hall sensors and B-shaft.
Please use the Configurator to order the standard B-shaft version of the DS28 motor with an NME1 encoder attached to it.
Please note: The low inductance of these slotless motors, combined with the PWM frequency of the controller, can lead to high current ripple generating additional heat. Therefore, additional motor throttles need to be used between the controller and motor.

Kansas City - Brett Favre tried to hit Vernand Morency on a dump pass to the right with about 40 seconds left in the first half. The pass was behind Morency so he thought it was a lateral. In an effort to keep possession of the ball, Morency kicked the ball out of bounds.
The ruling on the field was a lateral, and an illegal touch on Morency for kicking the ball.
Replays showed it was a forward pass. Morency was called for delay of game for kicking the ball, like Atari Bigby was against Denver last week.
Now the Packers have it at the 33 on 3rd-and-7.
Favre just threw his second interception when Koren Robinson fell breaking on the ball. That play is exactly why coach Mike McCarthy has been so conservative in those situations in previous weeks.
The Chiefs, who can't move the ball for anything, have a first down at the Packers' 30.

I've probably watched over 100 espisodes of Jeopardy over the years (thinking makes my brain hurt). Maybe the show makes me feel inferior? I'm lucky to get 10 answers right (or in this case questions).
I liked Alex better when he had his iconic mustache. But since mustache's have been out of style for years now...he shaved it off a few years ago!
He really doesn't offer much as a host, and his extremely dry almost non-existant sense of humour doesn't work for me.
And he seems to uptight to be a fun guy to be around.
So, he's an okay guy (I liked his guest appearance on The Simpsons), but not a favorite.

As more than 200 Nigerian schoolgirls remain missing after being abducted by Islamist militants, a solidarity rally is being organised in Medway.
The girls were abducted from a boarding school last month by the Boko Haram group. The kidnapping has triggered a huge international campaign, with world leaders and celebrities calling for the children to be released.
The Gillingham-based charity Health Action Charity Organisation (HACO), which supports African communities in Medway, in partnership with Nigerians living in the Towns, are holding a rally on Saturday, May 24.
They will be converging in Gillingham High Street at 10am to march to Chatham.
Tina Murphy, director of HACO, said: "The horror of the girls' plight has now made world headlines through #BringBackOurGirls, and become a rallying call for the right of women to education.
"Chibok is a local government area of Borno State in northern part of Nigeria. The 10 states with the highest number of girls and boys not in secondary school are found in the north, and these ten states have the highest percentage of female aged between 15 to 24 years who cannot read or write. This has created a wider social base of uneducated, and unemployed persons hostile towards education."
Yesterday the Boko Haram released a video apparently showing the kidnapped Chibok girls. The video shows Abubakar Shekau, the fugitive Boko Haram leader, and more than 100 girls wearing hijab.
Mr Shekau said he would release the girls, who he claims have converted to Islam, if Boko Haram prisoners held nationwide are released.
Teams of British, American and French experts have all flown to Nigeria to assist the government in trying to rescue the girls.

Prom Dress Drooling with P.E.
First, I'm starting with this.
7 comments:
Prom is still a few years away for me but I will never, EVER pass up on a chance to talk with fashion with someone! All these dresses are absolutely beautiful but honestly, I don't think I could pull them off very well. The Oscar de la Renta is GORGEOUS but it probably wouldn't look well on me. Lovely picks though!
ReplyDeleteWe don't do the prom thing over here, but on our last year of high school we had a graduation dinner and then went out, and I wore a blue chine inspired mini dress that I totally loved!
Great picks, I agree with you, I love the first dress the most!All lovely dresses. To be honest, we barely even remember what we wore to prom... years later, haha, it doesn't matter. As long as it makes you feel happy and you can dance in it, you're good to go! Have fun. :)
ReplyDeleteRepliesI think that's what I'm going for: no stress either way. I have an idea for the type of dress I want, but if I can't find it, it's no big deal, I'll pick something else and just plan on enjoying my night. I think I just have a part of me that adores fashion, and I rarely really talk about it, so I thought this post would be fun!

Why Paying After a Ransomware Attack Is Futile
A new report finds that paying ransom after a ransomware attack not only further fuels this crime wave, but does not guarantee that lost the data will be returned. "Standard preventive measures, such as anti-virus software, spam filters and regularly updating systems should be taken, but there is no surefire way of preventing ransomware," the report says. Instead, businesses should focus on... Read More »

Private Riley was a friend of Private Kappus, and was in the same squad as him, along with Private Bisenti, Private Manuel Mendoza, Private First Class Wallace Jenkins, Private First Class Chips Dubbo, and Corporal Lovik. His squad leader was then-Staff Sergeant Avery Johnson, and their squad designation was Fire Team Charlie.
Private Riley was a member of Fire Team Charlie on its mission to find a Covenant weapons cache after a Sangheili prisoner, 'Qualomee, revealed the cache's location. However, this was, in reality, a Forerunner building which housed the Flood. After his friend Kappus was ordered to open a door, thereby releasing the Flood, Riley obtained the dubious honor of becoming the first recorded Human to be successfully attacked by an Infection Form (note that some members of the UNSC Spirit of Fire had been infected but the Spirit of Fire had not yet returned to UNSC-controlled space at this time).
When he was attacked by the creature, Private Kappus attempted to pull it off of him. Even though the Infection Form was soon removed by Kappus, another soon found him and turned him into a Human Combat Form.[1]
- On very rare occasions, one can see an Assault Rifle underneath Riley while Kappus is trying to pull the Infection Form off him, which is strange, since Riley seems to be holding an Assault Rifle.
- Riley dislikes flip music, like most of his other squadmates.
