The Folkerts SK-3 a.k.a. "Jupiter, Pride of Lemont was the third in a series of air racers developed by Clayton Folkerts.[1]
Design and development[edit]
The SK-3 was built for mechanic, Rudy A. Kling from Lemont, Illinois as his personal racing aircraft. Kling assisted in the construction of the aircraft. The Folkerts SK-2 was the basis for the aircraft, with a slight upscaling in size with a larger Menasco C6-S engine.
The SK-3 was a midwinged conventional aircraft with retractable landing gear. The fuselage was long and slender. The thin wings used spruce wood spars, plywood covering and split flaps. The fuselage was welded steel tubing with aircraft fabric covering, built in two parts that were bolted together. The manual retractable landing gear used a single lever, rather than earlier crank systems. There were two 11 U.S. gallons (42 L; 9.2 imp gal) forward fuel tanks, a 27 U.S. gallons (100 L; 22 imp gal) main, and an auxiliary of 12 U.S. gallons (45 L; 10.0 imp gal) mounted behind the cockpit. The Menasco C6-S was modified by Kling to produce 400 hp (298 kW) at 3300 rpm, versus the standard 250 hp (186 kW) output.[2]
Operational history[edit]
Rudy Kling was the exclusive pilot of the SK-3. Kling had only 150 hours experience in a J-5-powered Travel Air before flying the racer. In the 1937 Greve Race, Kling came in at first place at 232.27 mph (374 km/h), just beating Wittman's Chief Oshkosh.[3]
At the 1937 Thompson Trophy race in the National Air Races, he again won at 256.910 mph (413 km/h). On December 3, 1937, during the 1938 Miami Air Races, the SK-3 crashed in the wash of a larger aircraft with Kling dying on his 29th birthday.[4]
- Unlike other SK racers which were progressively improved, the SK-4 built at Kansas City municipal airport was a copy of the SK-3 aircraft with a goal of attaining a 330 mph (531 km/h) maximum speed from a new metal propeller. Roger Don Rae flew in the 1938 National Air Races, but dropped out due to wing flutter. In the 1939 National Air Races, pilot Del Bush crashed. Folkerts did not build any more racers after the SK-4.[5]

At the same time that the ice was doing its work in the north, the streams flowing out from it made deposits of sand and gravel farther south. These are indicated by color number 11 on the map.*
Along the borders of the Coastal plain, from Raritan bay to the mouth of the Delaware and up the Delaware as far as Trenton, there is a low-lying belt of flat country, often somewhat terraciform, having an elevation of 30 to 50 feet. The substructure of this terrace is usually some one of the preceding formations, but it is generally covered by a thin body of loam, sand and gravel of lesser age than any of the preceding formations, except possibly the drift of the last glacial epoch. Occasionally this young formation has a considerable thickness, extending from the surface down to and even below sea level.
The disposition of this formation seems to indicate that when it was deposited, the Coastal plain (of New Jersey) was depressed something like 35 to 45 or 50 feet below its present level, the amount varying slightly in different localities. At the same time the drainage of the Coastal plain was sluggish, and deposits contemporaneous with those along the shore were made by the streams in their valleys. Starting with the debouchures of the streams, the alluvial deposits extended up the valleys, sometimes well toward their sources, and to elevations much above 50 feet. The disposition of this formation is shown on the map, where it is represented by color number 12. It will be seen that it makes a wide, though very irregular border from Keyport to Ocean City, and from Trenton to the mouth of Maurice river. Besides this, it not only covers the whole of Cape May county, but within this county it makes up nearly all the mass of the land which is above the sea. The strict contemporaneity of this formation with the drift of the last glacial epoch is not established, but it is probably at least partly contemporaneous with it, though its later portions may be slightly younger. The approximate contemporaneity of the two is inferred from their topographic relations, especially in the lower part of the Delaware valley, down which glacial drainage coursed, making deposits which are topographically continuous with those of this formation.
* For description of this extra-morainic drift of last glacial age, see Annual Beport of the State Geologist of N. J. for 1892, pages 102-122.
Since it has its best development in Cape May county, the name of that county is an appropriate one for the formation. The name is here used to cover those deposits of late glacial and early post-glacial time, which were made beyond the region directly affected by the ice or its drainage. It includes much of the loam which has heretofore been referred to under the name of the "low level Jamesburg."*
At many points at various high levels in different parts of the State there is a loam, the origin and explanation of which have occasioned much study, but for which no satisfactory explanation has been found. It is not confined to the Coastal plain, though it is there most widespread. It occurs at various elevations up to 200 feet and more, and from this altitude ranges down to the low-lying formations which has just been described. Outside the Coastal plain it lies on the Triassic shale at various points. In its clayey phases, it is used for brick clay. Thus the brick clay south of Pennington, 50 feet or more above the upper limit of the Pensauken formation represents it. Farther south, and at slightly lower levels, it overlies the Pensauken formation, covering it as a mantle three or four feet in thickness. In the vicinity of Trenton Junction, the clay loam mantle has been extensively used for brick, and it might be so used at numerous other points. Loam in such similar positions and relations as to lead to belief in its community of origin, is found up to the elevation of 181 feet in the vicinity of Marlton, 160 feet at Fountain Green, and 200 feet or more in the vicinity of Cream Ridge.
Its physical character varies from point to point, but in the southern part of the State it often contains a goodly amount of marl, even when the immediately underlying formation does not, seeming to make it necessary to suppose that the marl formations were well exposed when it was deposited. Furthermore its position is such as to show that it is younger than the body of the Pensauken formation, representing either its last phase or something subsequent to it.
In the vicinity of Philadelphia, the brick clay overlying the Pen * Annual Report of the State Geologist of N. J. for 1894.
sauken gravel and running to still higher levels, seems to connect itself with the clay loam on the low river terraces which are correlated with the youngest (Cape May) of the preceding formations. If the connection of the high-level loam with that on the low terraces is correct, the former, like the latter, must be much younger than the Pensauken.
Farther north, between Raritan and Pluckamin, there is at some points a surface clay which is highly calcareous. It is a deposit from standing water and seems to have been connected with the glacial waters of the last ice epoch. Clays which may be supposed to have a contemporaneous origin overlie the last glacial gravels and sands at the Plainfield brick yards. These and other facts which will not be here detailed have raised the strong suspicion that there was a deep, but very brief submergence of the State to a much more considerable extent than has been commonly recognized at, or soon after, the close of the last glacial epoch.
The high-level loam here referred to is found at many points in the Coastal plain. In general it is so discontinuous, so thin when it is present, and often so indecisive in character, that it cannot always, and perhaps not generally, be distinguished with certainty from the weathered products of the formations which underlie it; but occasionally it is so distinct as to leave no doubt of its separateness. This is true, for example, where the loam is marly, while the underlying beds are altogether free from marl; it is also true where it overlies the red shale, and where its character is such that it cannot be supposed to have originated from the decay of that formation. This high-level loam is what was designated the "high level Jamesburg loam" in some of the earlier reports.
The formation is too meagre, too equivocal at most points, and the borders of even its best developed areas too ill-defined, to render its mapping practicable or profitable.
The youngest formations of the State which cover areas represented on the map, are the marshes, beaches and dunes about the coast. The tide marsh belt has a considerable width from Point Pleasant to Cape May, and thence to Salem. The formation of the marshes, which is still in progress, consists of the fine sediment washed and blown from the land, but chiefly of the remains of the vegetation (peat) growing in the undrained areas. The peat has accumulated until its depth is in many places considerable. The marshes are being gradually filled up both by the sediment and the vegetation, and unless the land be slowly sinking, they will ultimately be converted into dry land.
Outside the tide marsh belt is the so-called beach, or series of beaches. The northern extremity of these beaches is Sandy Hook. This beach is essentially continuous to Long Branch, but is wanting from that point to Mount Pleasant. From Mount Pleasant it is nearly continuous to Cape May, and has a much lesser development, not shown on the map, on the bay side of the Cape. The beach and dune sand are represented together on the map by the black lines (13). The substructure for the beaches was made by waves and shore currents in very recent time; that is, they were originally beach ridges in the proper sense of the term. So soon as the waves had piled up the sand above the surface of the water, the wind commenced its work upon it, and fashioned it in its own way. The continued activity of the waves and currents has furnished new supplies of sand for the wind to work upon, thus giving rise to the well-known dune hills and ridges, rising many feet above the level of the beaches proper, along the larger part of the coast.
Over other parts of the State there is much wind-blown sand, but it is rarely aggregated in such considerable quantities as to constitute dunes which can be shown on a map of the scale of that here used. Dune sand is very prevalent in the vicinity of Old Bridge, especially southeast of the railroad, and along the east side of the Delaware river, especially below Trenton, where it has been blown up out of the valley since the deposition of the last glacial and Cape May formations. Wind-blown sand is also to be found to the depth of a few to several feet in scores, probably hundreds of places in the pine forests. In general, however, the areas of wind-blown sand are too small for representation on the accompanying map.

I dropped in on the "Coffee and Cars" event, run by Salon Privé, at Blenheim Palace last week. Although neither car nor coffee, this beast was my favourite of the show. I bet it would wake you up pretty damn quick in the morning too.
Note that this isn't the Dodge Tomahawk that Chrysler built as a concept. This is what happened when an Englishman, Allen Millyard, saw the Dodge V10 concept bike and thought "that seems like a good idea, I'll build one". Amazingly, it's actually road legal.
Here's a video by Mr Millyard which shows it off very nicely.
I also managed to take some pictures of four-wheeled machinery. Those should appear here sometime in the not too distant future…

In his first year in the NFL, wideout Marlon Brown has gone from an undrafted rookie fighting for a job to a critical member of the Ravens offense.
Brown has put together a terrific first season with 36 receptions (third on the team) for 412 yards (second on the squad). He ranks ninth among all NFL rookies in both.
He stands out much more in another category, however. Brown leads the Ravens, and NFL rookies, with six touchdown catches this season.
Brown is one away from tying Torrey Smith's Ravens rookie record for touchdowns - seven in 2011. The 22-year-old Brown also currently has the third-most points by a Ravens rookie with 38.
He's not likely to catch kicker Justin Tucker, who set the mark with 132 points last season. But one more touchdown will pass Smith's 42 in 2011 for second on the list.
Even though this post is focused on rookie records, Brown said Sunday that he no longer feels like it's his first year in the league.
"Not really," he said. "When I'm on the field on Sundays, I'm not a rookie to the other team. I'm just a guy they have to guard this week."
Brown's quarterback and coach sent some praise his way over the last few days. Joe Flacco told reporters he's looking for Brown in crucial situations now, just 13 weeks into the receiver's career.
"It's just what you have to do. Marlon is a great player," Flacco said. "I'm not thinking back there, 'Who is in this position? Can I trust this guy?' If I was thinking that - if that was going through my head - I'd have all the confidence in the world, and he'd be a guy that I'd pick out. He is a great football player. He has got a lot of things going for him, and he's getting better and better each week."
It doesn't hurt that Brown is 6-foot-5.
"It always helps when you get a good guy who can run and catch. It's just a little bit extra that he's big," Flacco told reporters. "It's funny about him that I didn't realize how tall he is. It wasn't until the first couple of weeks of the season when I was standing next to him that I realized how big he is. Torrey is shorter than Jacoby (Jones) and shorter than Marlon, and for some reason, I view him as being taller. I don't know why that is.
"Maybe he gives that appearance of being a little bit longer. Marlon is a big person, and I sometimes even take it for granted. I think that's just an added bonus when you get a good receiver. It's an added bonus that he is as big as he is."
Coach John Harbaugh is excited about what the Ravens have found in Brown.
"He's a big, strong guy with body control and catch radius," Harbaugh told the media. "Joe can put the ball around him, and he can make an adjustment and go make the catch, and that's really valuable in the red zone. So,that's probably where it shows up the most, but he's done it on some inside-type routes in the slot really well, and I also think he can be a pretty good route-runner outside. That's a little tougher, that's something that takes a little more time to develop. But he's working hard on that stuff also."

Snider leads Pirates past BrewersMay 17, 2013 - 4:05 AM Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) - Travis Snider had a two-run homer among his three hits and the Pittsburgh Pirates downed the Milwaukee Brewers, 7-1, to take the last three of a four-game set from PNC Park.
Snider drove in three and the first of a four-run sixth inning to break the contest open. Andrew McCutchen, Garrett Jones, Neil Walker and Clint Barmes each contributed an RBI to help the Pirates to their sixth win in seven games.
"It was good to see us continue to score, get the game to a comfortable place, its was a good finish for us," said Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle.
Pittsburgh received a second straight strong outing from Francisco Liriano (2-0), who fired 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball. He struck out seven and allowed six hits and three walks.
The struggling Brewers were held to just six hits to take their 12th loss in 14 games. Milwaukee was held to only one run in six of those defeats.
"When you're not scoring runs, it's hard to get motivated," said Brewers manager Ron Roenicke. "We need to grind out some runs."
Hiram Burgos (1-2) was charged with three runs on eight hits over five innings of work to absorb the loss.
Liriano's toughest inning came in the first, but McCutchen helped cushion the blow when he made a spectacular catch against the wall in center to rob an extra base hit and record the second out.
Jean Segura had reached with a single and after stealing second, Liriano served up an RBI single to Lucroy. However, the Pittsburgh lefty didn't allow another run the rest of his start.
The Pirates drew even in the fourth when Pedro Alvarez drew a one-out walk, stole second and came around to score on Barmes' double into left.
After the Brewers stranded runners at the corners in the fifth, the Pirates struck in the bottom half to take the lead. Starling Marte led off the frame with a single and Snider crushed a two-run shot past the seats in right center for a 3-1 Pirates lead.
Pittsburgh then broke the game open an inning later off reliever Alfredo Figaro.
Barmes reached to start the inning on Segura's throwing error and a double from Marte put runners at second and third. Snider, McCutchen, Jones and Walker then each knocked in a run in succession with singles to open up a 7-1 lead.
The Brewers had just one baserunner the rest of the way.
Game Notes
Segura stole his 14th base of the season and added two hits ... It was Snider's first home run of the year ... Pittsburgh had 13 hits and were 5- for-12 with runners in scoring position.

2016 Plano Lions Christmas Parade
President's Notes
Where There's A Need, There's A Lion Ready To Serve!!!
The program for the December 2014 meeting of the Plano Early Lions Club (PELC) was an overview of the Computers For The Blind (CFTB) project located in Richardson, Texas. Lion David Jeppson, Executive Director for CFTB, was our program speaker. He also spoke of the on-going needs for technical service and other volunteers. PELC Lion Franklin Chu was so impressed by the presentation and the need for technical service volunteers that for the next three months, Lion Chu provided the Computers For The Blind Office with 44 volunteer hours of professional and technical service.
Lion Franklin Chu (far right) and other Technical service volunteers.
Lion David explained to our membership that the mission of Computers for the Blind (CFTB) is to open the world of information technology to persons who are blind or visually impaired by providing computer equipment, software and training. Old computers are brought in for donations and the information from the hard drives are deleted and wiped out. Each team volunteer cleans the computer, installs re-imaged hard drive with new Windows 7 and NVDA (Non Visual Desktop Access) software. NVDA allows blind/vision impaired users to access Windows. It also allows users to "read the screen" via synthetic speech. Each team volunteer prepares a checklist for documentation purposes. Finally, Gil Brand, the operations manager, inspects the computers' readiness.

If the computers are okay, they are packed, labeled and sent to USPS for free shipping to the needed destinations. CFTB is always in need of volunteers, especially those equipped with technical, business, and organizational skills, like Lion Franklin. For more information, you can reach Mr. Brand at 214.282.2581.
We are so very proud of PELC Lion Franklin Chu for answering the Computers For The Blind's call-to-service! PELC Lion Franklin is indeed a Profile Lion-in-Service!!

I just happen to notice that the spam cleaner log linking to a user doesn't update the changed usernames. So spammer rachel341 renamed to _rachel341 will show as rachel341. I assume this is perhaps because it is a 'log' and the original name was that, and it doesn't pull the current username for that user. But reporting anyway, in case it should do that.

Interests show,that you aint hittin no mo
Your shit's gettin old,forget tha past
Dont let tha past pave a way to tha world
occupied by MCs that I slay
Affect tha first when I select a verse
To hit you with tha worse intention
Blast in three dimension,sharp like a ginzu
Then you will understand that I split niggas to fragments of a man
Differental from pots to pans,opposition at a glance

At least 6 months old befor water
Breast milk and/or formula provides all the hydration a baby needs until they're 6 months old. Even on hot days do not give a baby under 6 months any water and do not water down formula. You could give them and extra bottle or nurse more frequently if you're worried about dehydration. Because babies live on a liquid diet at this age the water can fill their tummies which will ruin their appetite and deprive them of the nutrients they would get from milk. It also messes with their sodium levels which can cause serious damage to their system.
Even after 6 months old water should be given sparingly. My doctor said no more then 2-4oz in a 24 hour period. Basically just sips while learning to use a cup or to wash down any solid foods if necessary.

Every woman is beautiful! Gone are days when only a certain kind was considered sexy. The plus size model Ashley Graham is featured in Sports Illustrated 2016 and it's official! She looks her best in the cover below!
She sounded much excited to tell the world that she's featured in the most anticipated magazine that's going to hit the stand next week. On Instagram she said, 'It's official - I'm a @si_swimsuit model!!'
'Thank you to everyone who stood up for curves- our voices were heard and together we can help me win Rookie of the Year.' The model added.
The 28 years old model made history in 2015 when she became the first plus-size model to appear in an ad featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.
She's always been a strong advocate of positive body image. According to her, feeling good in what you wear is all matters. The size shouldn't bother anyone.
'Who cares about the number that's inside your jeans? If clothes are making you feel bad about your body, go ahead and buy a bigger size.' She said.
Talking about what she feels when she's termed as a plus size model, Ashley Graham E! Online in an interview that,
'I understand that a lot of women still love this word and the culture of inclusion it's come to represent. I totally respect that, but for someone like me, I don't feel the connection to the word 'plus-sized.'

Ruffled Petal Cake
I made this cake a few weeks ago for a beautiful wedding at a vineyard in Connecticut. The couple were in love with a cake by Cinderellas Cakes they saw on a blog. My cake is very similar, but I made the ruffles a little thinner to look somewhat like flower petals. Kind of combining the ruffle cake with the flower petal cakes that are popular right now. Very happy with the result!

COURTHOUSE Ś A Berks woman convicted of stalking a married Lower Pottsgrove man with whom she was ōinfatuatedö will undergo a mental health evaluation to determine her competency to stand trial on new charges she allegedly continued to stalk the same man and also harassed the editor of The Mercury.
Sharlene Andreyko, 53, of the 200 block of Lenape Road, Bechtelsville, will be evaluated by Dr. Rocio Nell at Montgomery County Emergency Services, located on the grounds of the Norristown State Hospital, according to an order signed by Montgomery County Judge Steven T. OÆNeill.
OÆNeill said Nell ōshall address the issue of whether or not the defendant is competent to participate in the legal proceedingsö presently pending against her, if Andreyko ōis criminally responsibleö for her actions at the time of the offenses and ōif said defendant is capable of criminal intent.ö
Defense lawyer Adam Todd Katzman requested the evaluation on behalf of Andreyko, who remains in the county jail while awaiting trial on charges of stalking, harassment, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and making false statements in connection with alleged incidents that occurred in June.
Montgomery County Emergency Services, while on the grounds of the state hospital, is not affiliated with the hospital. The agency serves as the countyÆs emergency mental health crisis center.
Andreyko will be transported by sheriffÆs deputies from the county jail to the Norristown facility for the evaluation, which is tentatively scheduled for Nov. 19.
If Andreyko is deemed to be incompetent, then she would undergo mental health treatment until such time she is deemed competent to proceed to trial. If Andreyko is deemed competent, a trial date would be set and she would continue to be held in the county jail pending that trial.
Andreyko is being held on a detainer without bail because the new charges represent an alleged violation of her previous probation and parole.
Assistant District Attorney John Walko is prosecuting the case.
With the latest charges, authorities alleged Andreyko harassed the Lower Pottsgrove couple and their relatives through additional letters and attempted to purchase a gun from a shop at ZernÆs the same day Mercury editor Nancy March received a threatening letter from Andreyko.
In the correspondence sent to The Mercury, Andreyko, who previously proclaimed she was called upon by the ōHoly Spiritö when she harassed and stalked the Lower Pottsgrove couple, allegedly wrote she was angry with the newspaper for publicizing her previous arrest and conviction.
In May 2010, Andreyko was sentenced in Montgomery County Court to five months already served to 23 months in the county jail for stalking the Lower Pottsgrove couple between December 2008 and March 2009. At the time of AndreykoÆs sentencing, Judge OÆNeill, based on information he received from doctors who indicated Andreyko would benefit from additional inpatient treatment, involuntarily committed her to the Montgomery County Emergency Services facility.
ItÆs unclear when Andreyko was released from custody.
But on June 22, 2012, a relative of the married couple Andreyko was convicted of stalking in 2009 received a new letter from Andreyko. The letter allegedly penned by Andreyko indicated the male victim is her ōidol,ö and she requested that he write her before her birthday in July. Andreyko also directed her attention to the manÆs wife, writing, ōIf I canÆt have what I want by my birthday, maybe IÆll get it by Christmas,ö according to the arrest affidavit.
The victims told police they were ōliving in fear again,ö according to the arrest affidavit filed by Lower Pottsgrove Detective Joseph Campbell, who alleged Andreyko was ōinfatuatedö with the married man.
ōThey are concerned more, now than ever, since this has already been dealt with in the court system and Andreyko still has no fear of the justice system,ö Campbell alleged.
A few days later, the female victim received another letter signed by Andreyko where Andreyko wrote, ōno weapon against me shall prosper,ö according to court papers.
Additionally, also on June 27, Mercury editor Nancy March received a ōdisturbing phone callö at The Mercury office from Andreyko. According to court records, March told police Andreyko was ōscreaming at her on the phone, calling her a bitch and (saying) she was going to lose her job for putting (AndreykoÆs) name in the newspaper.ö Andreyko also made a reference to a prophet.
Two days after Andreyko called the newspaper, March received a card from Andreyko at The Mercury office which read, ōYou are about to become Celsius,ö and ōThe Mercury is going to be shut down for libel,ö according to the arrest affidavit. Andreyko also threatened ōGet your article off the Internet about the Prophet because IÆm about to profit from your stupidity! ... Remove my address immediately, this is a threat!ö
The same day March received the card from Andreyko, Douglass (Mont.) police were called to ZernÆs where Andreyko allegedly attempted to purchase a firearm, specifically a Taurus PT22, a small, .25-caliber handgun. Police were alerted when the gun shop owner did a background check on Andreyko and learned she was wanted out of Lower Pottsgrove for harassment and stalking incidents.
Police alleged Andreyko lied on the questionnaire she filled out to purchase a firearm when asked about her criminal history, as well as whether she was ever committed to a mental institution.

Two word review- stay here!! If you are planning a trip, long or short to the Vineyard, I highly recommend this hotel if you want an amazing experience. My fiance and I wanted to spend a few days away for my birthday weekend in August. We searched online and hoped to be in a nice location so we could get a feel for the Vineyard, but being New Yorkers we are used to having everything at our fingertips and within walking distance. We wanted to be near restaurants, shopping and the beach with little effort. Vineyard Square provided us with that option- it was so convenient, we could walk to everything. The room was lovely and immaculate, decorated in a cool green and filled with eco-friendly touches, it had exactly that beachy feel I was looking for without being too isolated.
A few other things that were wonderful- they have live music on the outside front porch on some nights and it was just so awesome to have that right next to the hotel. Also, if you need beautifying (like I did), the hotel has an amazing salon where you can get your hair done or a mani/pedi. It was so nice to have that right there so you can pamper yourself and I got so many compliments when i got home and back to work. I am thinking of going back in the off-season even. Ask for Salissa for hair, she is the best. Free breakfast was also a nice touch, with an outdoor back patio that had lots of comfy places to relax. Plus they have bikes for the guests... I never got my courage up to test one out and go riding- but it is totally a reason for me to go back and conquer the bikes! Oh and for all you fitness fans they have a small gym, I never expected that so I didn't bring my workout clothes.. but you can definitely get the time in.
Above all, the staff was so friendly and catered to our every need, whether it be recommendations for breakfast or supplies for the beach. Joanne and Evelyn are fantastic and if you have any questions, Wes who is also at the desk is one of those jack-of all trades where no task seems too large or small. I asked if he helps with weddings, because I know he would deliver top notch service for us!
Finally, I will review it separately as well but the restaurant Chesca next door was our favorite place to eat in Edgartown and it was so convenient being right at the hotel- the fun drinks, a lobster salad, and the Snowball dessert are things i can't get out of my head.
In all it was a perfect birthday trip and we can't wait to go back, perhaps we will make it our annual getaway every August!!!
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

A couple of weeks ago I wrote a post suggesting you hold off on buying a Playstation 4 because a new model may be be arriving shortly.
It's time for an update on that story. First of all, the 1 TB SKU still hasn't been announced for North America, but you should be getting it next week if you're in Europe. Unfortunately we still don't know when, or if, Sony will announce a 1 TB model for North America.
What makes things even more confusing is that in Japan a new PS4 revision, the CUH-1200, is now available. Eurogamer has an in-depth post about it but the key take-aways are lower power consumption and quieter operation.
Eurogamer says, however, that the new 1 TB SKU hitting stores in Europe does not have these new CUH-1200 improvements; at least not yet. So when will Europe and North America see the quieter, less power-hungry PS4? Sadly we just don't know.
Fan noise is one of my few (minor) complaints about the PS4 though. It doesn't happen all the time but some games cause the internal fan to kick into high gear and it becomes loud enough to be very noticeable. If you've held off this long on getting a PS4 it might be worth sitting tight until this holiday season. It goes without saying that there'll be some tempting sales then, and if we're lucky, this new hardware revision will be on the shelves here by then, too.
Now I have a question for existing PS4 owners. Until very recently I had my PS4 standing upright. Due to some re-arranging of the entertainment center it is now laying down and it seems to me like the fan kicks on less often than it did when it was standing upright. Has anyone else experienced this? It's only been a few days since I changed things so maybe it's just a coincidence or my imagination but I'd love to hear from other PS4 owners who've experimented with orientation of the system.

Metabolic Engineering for Synthesis of Omega-3 Long Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Transgenic Plants and Algae
Conference Recording Dec 10, 2013
About the Speaker
Professor Johnathan A. Napier's research on the biosynthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids has delivered some of the key advances in the last 15 years, including the functional characterisation of the omega-3 long chain PUFA biosynthetic pathway and its heterologous reconstitution in transgenic plants. Johnathan obtained his BSc from the University of Nottingham, followed by a PhD in plant biochemistry from King's College, London. He carried out post-doctoral research in the Department of Plant Sciences, University of Cambridge, then taking up a position at Long Ashton Research Station in Bristol. His research group relocated to Rothamsted Research in 2003 where he is currently Institute Assistant Director and Programme Leader. Johnathan is also an Affiliated Lecturer at the University of Cambridge and Visiting Professor at the University of Nottingham.AbstractWe have been evaluating the possibility of producing omega-3 LC-PUFAs in different transgenic hosts, to provide a sustainable source of these important nutrients. Attempts to metabolically engineer plants with the primary biosynthetic pathway for LC-PUFAs has been carried out in both model plants and crop species, allowing insights into factors constraining the accumulation of these fatty acids. Specifically, a generic bottleneck resides within the primary LC-PUFA biosynthetic pathway as a result of the "substrate dichotomy" between the lipid-dependent desaturases and the acyl-CoA-dependent elongases which catalyze the primary reactions. This bottleneck can be overcome through the use of acyl-CoA dependent desaturase, though not without impact on phospholipid composition. The use of lipidomic analyses have allowed us to identify further interventions in this pathway, ultimately leading to the production of a transgenic oilseed crop which contains up to 30% omega-3 LC-PUFAs in seed oil.
Analogous experiments have been carried out in transgenic microalgae, with the goal of enhancing and optimising the endogenous accumulation of EPA and DHA. Recent results from both systems will be presented.

Incidence, causes, severity and treatment of throat discomfort: a four-region online questionnaire survey
Acute sore throat is commonly associated with viral infections. Consumers typically rely on over-the-counter treatments and other remedies to treat symptoms; however, limited information is available regarding consumer perceptions of sore throat or treatment needs. The aim of this study was to investigate perceptions of throat discomfort and how these influence attitudes and consumer behaviour with regard to treatment.
Online consumer surveys were completed by participants invited by email between 2003 and 2004 in four markets: the UK, France, Poland, and Malaysia. The questionnaire consisted of 24 questions that covered key issues surrounding throat discomfort including incidence in the past 12 months, causes, severity, effects on functionality and quality of life, actions taken to relieve throat discomfort, the efficacy of these approaches and the reasons behind using specific products.
In total, 6465 men and women aged ≥18 years were surveyed, identifying 3514 participants who had suffered throat discomfort/irritation in the past 12 months (response rate of 54%). These participants completed the full survey. The breakdown of throat discomfort sufferers was: UK, 912; France, 899; Poland, 871; Malaysia, 832. A high proportion of respondents experienced one or more instances of throat discomfort in the previous 12 months, with an overall incidence of 54%. Infections including the common cold/influenza and other bacteria/viruses were commonly perceived causes of throat discomfort (72% and 46%, respectively). Physical and environmental factors were also perceived to be causative, including airborne pollution (28%), smoking (23%), and air conditioning (31%). Symptoms perceived to be caused by an infection were associated with a higher degree of suffering (mean degree of suffering for bacteria/virus and common cold/influenza; 3.4 and 3.0, respectively). Medicinal products were used for all perceived causes, but more commonly for sore throats thought to be caused by infections. Cold drinks were used more often for symptoms thought to be due to physical and environmental causes.
Not all throat discomfort is the same, as demonstrated by the range of perceived causes and the emotional and physical symptoms experienced. Patient expectations regarding treatment of throat discomfort differs and treatments should be tailored by pharmacists to suit the cause.
Acute sore throat, which typically describes self-limiting pharyngitis, tonsillitis, and laryngitis, is one of the most common complaints that results in patients presenting to their general practitioner (GP) or pharmacist; however, most people with sore throat will not seek medical help
It has been estimated that 50–95% of sore throats in adults and 70% in children are caused by infection with respiratory viruses
As the majority of sore throats are not of bacterial origin, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and other international health authorities, recommend that antibiotics should not be used for primary treatment
The aim of the current study was to investigate the incidence, causes, and degree of suffering associated with throat discomfort across four markets, and to better understand how these influence the attitudes and behaviour of consumers with regard to OTC therapies and other management approaches.
To gain an overview of consumer needs across a disparate global population, online consumer surveys were completed by participants between 2003 and 2004 in four markets: the UK, France, Poland, and Malaysia. These countries were chosen as it was felt that they were broadly representative of different markets; the UK being an established general sales list (GSL) market where products can be purchased without the supervision of a pharmacist; France an established pharmacy-based market where products are purchased in a pharmacy only; Poland an emerging and pharmacy-based market; and Malaysia an emerging Asian market. The research was conducted in accordance with the Market Research Society Code of Conduct and the Data Protection Act of 1998.
Participant recruitment
Fieldwork was conducted using the National Family Opinion (NFO) WorldGroup's On-Line Access Panel in the UK (June 2003), Ciao's On-Line Access Panels in France (August/September 2003) and Poland (November 2003), and the Taylor Nelson Sofres (TNS) On-Line Panel in Malaysia (July/August 2004). NFO/TNS have a global network of online managed access panels spanning North America, Europe and Asia Pacific.
Invitations to complete the questionnaire were emailed to a sample of online panellists in the relevant countries who agreed to participate in the market research. Respondents were provided with a link to the survey. The survey was open for a limited time period and then closed a few days later when the required sample profile had been achieved. Questionnaire filters and data checks were automatically applied during the course of the self-completion interview. Panellists were incentivised at the usual NFO agency rate at the time of £20.
Population sampling
Respondent samples were planned to be representative of total populations of each country assessed with regard to key demographic variables. Market research agencies in different countries use different demographic variables, for instance, social class as a variable is only relevant in the UK.
Men and women aged ≥18 years who had suffered from throat irritation or throat discomfort in the past 12 months were surveyed. A tally of non-sufferers was kept to identify incidence of suffering during the past 12 months. The sample population included a range of key variables such as sex and age as well as social class and household size for the UK, income for France and Malaysia, and locality for Poland and Malaysia. A total base of 800 respondents per country was recommended as a minimum number to give a robust sample size and allow analysis of attitudes and behaviours among different sub-groups.
Questionnaire development
The questionnaire was developed by NFO in English, and was then translated into the individual languages (see Additional file

Data analysis
Data were analyzed in the first instance on a per country basis and are presented as a mean value. To determine the frequency of suffering, respondents were first asked to select from a list the five most frequent causes of past cases of throat irritation or discomfort. Respondents were then asked to state how frequently they suffered from symptoms as a result of each of the causes stated during the previous 12 months. These data were used to calculate the mean frequency of suffering for each cause of throat discomfort. The severity of suffering was determined by asking respondents to rate, on a scale of 1–5, the degree of suffering associated with the cause of their throat discomfort. A mean of the degree of suffering attributed to each of the individual causes was then calculated. Respondents were also asked to select from a list, the course of action they took, as well as a descriptor of how their throat felt, during each of the stated causes of throat discomfort. Mean values were calculated for the proportion of respondents who selected each of the given choices.
To aid in the overall analysis, data were also pooled and the mean value from each of the four countries was used to calculate an overall mean for the entire study population.
Demographic data
A total of 3514 participants were included in the analysis: 912 from the UK, 899 from France, 871 from Poland, and 832 from Malaysia (response rate of 54%). The total number of respondents surveyed from each country was 1940 from the UK, 1954 from France, 968 from Poland, and 1603 from Malaysia. Overall, the baseline demographics of participants were comparable across each of the countries included with regard to age and sex (Table
Frequency of suffering
Across the four markets assessed, a high proportion of respondents had experienced one or more instances of throat discomfort in the previous 12 months, with an overall incidence of 3514/6465 (54%) participants. This included 47% (428/912) of respondents from the UK, 46% (413/899) from France, and 52% (433/832) from Malaysia. In Poland, 90% of respondents (784/871) suffered from throat discomfort in the 12 months prior to the survey.
Range of perceived causes and severity of suffering
Respondents across all countries considered the common cold/influenza to be responsible for their throat discomfort in 72% of cases within the past 12 months (Table
Interestingly, among Malaysian respondents, dust and outdoor conditions, airborne pollution, and hot and dry indoor conditions were considered as causative more commonly than those from any other country assessed (Table
A pooled analysis demonstrated that snoring, passive smoking, smoking, specific allergy, air conditioning, and dust/other outdoor conditions were considered to be responsible for the highest degree of annual suffering across all four countries (Table
Across the four countries included, infection with bacteria/viruses was classified as causing the highest degree of suffering (mean score 3.4), followed by common cold/influenza infection (mean score 3.0), specific allergy (mean score 2.8), and hay fever (mean score 2.7). Other causes of sore throat that led to a high degree of suffering were passive smoking (mean score 2.7), sudden change in temperature (mean score 2.7), and air conditioning and talking/shouting (mean score 2.6). The least degree of suffering was caused by throat irritation associated with snoring (mean score 2.3).
Range of physical and emotional symptoms experienced during periods of throat discomfort
The overall descriptors used by respondents to indicate how their throat felt during periods of discomfort were similar across the countries assessed and differed depending on the perceived cause of the throat discomfort (Table
Figure 1

General attitude to illness
Overall, responses regarding general attitudes towards illness from across the four countries and between sexes were similar, with the majority of participants stating that they 'tend to see how symptoms develop and if they don't disappear quickly, I take the appropriate medication' (Figure
Figure 2
General attitudes to throat discomfort and medication
General attitudes to throat discomfort and medication. Data shown are from a pooled analysis of mean responses from across the four markets assessed.
Interestingly, there was a difference between countries in the proportion of respondents who selected 'as soon as symptoms appear, I take the most appropriate medication as quickly as possible'. This was chosen by 17% and 26% of respondents in the UK and France, respectively, compared with 44% in Poland and 30% in Malaysia (data not shown).
Action taken by cause
Data were once again similar across the four markets (Table
Respondents with throat discomfort perceived to be caused by factors other than infection differed with regard to treatment depending on the exact cause of their symptoms (Table
The medicated product most widely used in the UK was Strepsils® (amylmetacresol/2,4-dichlorobenzyl alcohol), with Lockets® (menthol/eucalyptol) and Halls Soothers® (hexylresorcinol/benzalkonium chloride solution) the most commonly bought throat sweets. The two most widely bought medicated products in France were Solutricine® (biclotymol) and Lysopaine® (cetylpyridinium/lysozyme hydrochloride); and in Poland were Neo Angin® (2,4-Dichlorobenzyl alcohol/menthol/pentyl-m-cresol) and Cholinex® (choline salicylate). In Malaysia, respondents tended to select Strepsils® and Fisherman's Friend® (menthol) for sore throat or throat discomfort, with Halls® (menthol) and Ricola® (burnet/elder blossom/speedwell/peppermint/sage/marshmallow/thyme/lady's mantle/horehound/plantain/cowslip/yarrow/mallow) selected more for breath freshening, loss of voice or simply as a sweet (data not shown).
Overall, the results of this consumer study demonstrate that over half of the respondents experienced throat discomfort or irritation in the past 12 months. The common cold/influenza was perceived to be the most common cause of throat discomfort across the countries surveyed although environmental and physical factors were also major perceived causes. Infections with bacteria/viruses and the common cold/influenza were classified as causing the highest degree of suffering across the countries. The descriptors used by respondents to indicate how their throat felt were similar across the countries and were dependent on the perceived cause of throat discomfort. The emotional impact and general attitude towards illness were similar across all countries as was the action taken in relation to the cause.
These data demonstrate that, in the mind of the consumer, throat irritation and discomfort may have a variety of perceived causes that can be broadly divided into three categories: the first category being caused by infections (e.g. caused by cold/influenza, bacterial/viral infection), the second being caused by environmental factors (e.g. allergy/hay fever, passive smoking, pollution, temperature, etc.), and the third a result of self-induced/physical factors (e.g. smoking, drinking, shouting, etc.).
Although infection was the most commonly reported cause of throat discomfort on an individual basis, when environmental factors were pooled these led to a higher overall frequency of illness. For example, respondents in Malaysia (a tropical country) reported that a high frequency of symptoms were caused by pollution, dust and outdoor conditions, and sudden changes in temperature, which could be linked with more time spent outdoors in a drier environment. This finding indicates that there is a degree of seasonality with regard to the perceived cause of throat discomfort: infection and allergy, such as hay fever, may be regarded as seasonal causes, whereas environmental causes may be regarded as non-seasonal.
The high incidence of throat discomfort in Poland was likely to be a result of seasonality, as the survey was conducted during November when the weather would have been colder and as such, sore throat may have been at the forefront of respondents' minds, rather than indicating a higher incidence of throat discomfort per se. In Poland there can also be a large contrast between overheated public places, offices and shops, and the cold outdoors. Throat discomfort due to air conditioning is more frequently mentioned in France, where usage is higher due to seasonal high temperatures. Pollution is also frequently mentioned in Malaysia and France, which may be linked to pollution levels in Kuala Lumpur and Paris.
When asked about their treatment approach to illness and medication, most respondents stated that they 'tend to see how symptoms develop and if they don't disappear quickly, I take the appropriate medication'; although in all countries there were some respondents that would take appropriate medication as soon as symptoms appeared. This does indicate that there are differences in treatment approaches between consumers when it comes to their health. It has been previously reported that most people with sore throat do not seek medical help
The approach of respondents to treatment reflected the severity and perceived cause of their throat discomfort and irritation. Almost half of respondents waited a short time before seeking treatment, but around one-third had a treat early mentality, seeking treatment immediately upon experiencing symptoms. Throat discomfort that was rated as being most severe (i.e. that caused by infection or allergy) was typically treated using medicated products. More severe symptoms caused by environmental factors were treated using hot/cold drinks or confectionery. The use of products with a sensorial effect, i.e. warming or cooling, indicates specific needs from consumers. Those sore throats that were considered least severe were treated with a wider range of approaches.
Based on the descriptors and severity scores provided by respondents, throat discomfort and irritation caused by environmental factors was considered only slightly less severe than that caused by infection. Also, environmental and physical causes of throat discomfort affected respondents throughout the year and the ongoing and cumulative impact of such suffering may be significant. Furthermore, all types of throat irritation were reported to have an impact on the ability of respondents to function normally, except in 16% of cases. Responses were similar across all the countries assessed and in some cases the effect was so severe that respondents claimed to feel down/depressed or unsociable, demonstrating an emotional impact.
Based on these data, three distinct forms of treatment were sought depending on the perceived cause, the severity of symptoms, and the need of the consumer. Some wanted medicinal products, presumably for stronger relief of sore throat symptoms. Others wanted products with a more sensorial feel, be that cooling or warming drinks or soothing lozenges, while others sought early treatment, perhaps to prevent the condition getting worse. There were also a proportion of respondents who did not seek treatment. This is likely to be reflective of the individual and personal nature of throat discomfort, and how illness is perceived by the respondent.
As described above, however, environmental factors led to symptoms that were considered to be almost comparable in severity to symptoms caused by infection. The low uptake of medicated products among sufferers of some physical or environmental symptoms is, therefore, surprising as these respondents must suffer significant discomfort and reductions in quality of life. If patients seek help from pharmacists and other healthcare professionals, they should recommend the most suitable and effective medicated products to deliver the relief the patient is seeking at that time – treatment should be tailored to manage the patient's throat discomfort based not only on its cause, but also on the patient's expectations of treatment. Previous studies have shown that patients who consult their GP with a sore throat are looking for pain relief rather than an antibiotic prescription
Limitations of this study include the different demographic data available across the countries, which makes direct comparisons across the countries difficult. Although, the demographic data are different, they are still representative of each country. Also, the lower internet penetration in Malaysia at the time of the online survey may have led to a bias towards younger age groups, professionals/full-time employees, and city locations.
In conclusion, these data provide key insights into the feelings and behaviours of consumers suffering with throat irritation. First, not all throat discomfort is the same as demonstrated by the range of perceived causes and the emotional and physical symptoms experienced by respondents. Second, the needs of patients regarding the treatment of throat discomfort differ; therefore, treatment should be tailored by pharmacists not only to suit the cause of the throat discomfort and the severity of symptoms, but also the individual needs of the patient. Pharmacists should advise the most appropriate treatments based on the active ingredients and a range of different treatment options should be provided depending on whether the patient requires rapid, 'hard-hitting' relief, sensorial relief, or prevention/protection against symptoms.

South Africa won by 131 runs against Ireland | South Africa beat Ireland by 131 Runs
South Africa won by 131 runs against Ireland: In ICC cricket world cup 2011 34th match South Africa beat Ireland by 131 runs.South Africa played first and make 273 runs target and then Ireland played but can't face South Africa bowlers specially R Peterson who's take 3 wickets.
South Africa won by 131 runs against Ireland South Africa have become the first country in Group B to qualify for the quarterfinals in the World Cup 2011 after they outclassed Ireland by 131 runs in day-night match here at the Eden Garden on Tuesday.
Chasing a difficult target of 273, Ireland could not bat at ease as they were losing wickets at regular intervals and the whole team was out for 141 in 33.2 overs.Gary Wilson was the top scorer with 31 with four boundaries and a six as no other Irish batsman could reach even 20.For South Africa, Robin Peterson and Morne Morkel captured three wickets each for 32 and 33, respectively while Jacques Kallis claimed two for 20.Earlier, South Africa managed to score 272 runs for the loss of seven wickets despite tight bowling from the minnows.
Sent into bat by Ireland captain William Porterfield, South Africa were facing difficulty in scoring fast against the minnows as they lost their top order batsmen for 117 runs in about 27 overs.However, Jean-Paul Duminy and Collin Ingram rescued the team and took the score to 204 before Ingram was bowled by Trent Johnston for 46.
Then, Duminy found another good partner in Johan Botha (21) to add further 65 runs for the seventh wicket. But he was unfortunate to miss his third ODI century by just one run as he was superbly caught by Kevin O'Brien off John Mooney. He hit six fours and a six in his 103-ball innings.
Among others, Morne van Wyk was the only significant contributor with a fluent 46 from 41 balls with seven fours and a six.South Africa made one change from the side which beat India by three wickets in Nagpur on Saturday, bringing in Colin Ingram in place of their most prolific batsman AB de Villiers, who suffered a thigh strain during their win against India.
Ireland brought in fit again pace-man Trent Johnston in place of all-rounder Andre Botha, who was down with a stomach bug. This is the only change Ireland made from the team which lost to the West Indies by 44 runs.South Africa produced a dominant bowling performance to beat the Irish by 131 runs in their World Cup 2011 Group B clash at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Tuesday.

Clot retraction
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (March 2017) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Clot retraction is the "shrinking" of a blood clot over a number of days. In so doing, the edges of the blood vessel wall at the point of injury are slowly brought together again to repair the damage.
Clot retraction is dependent on the release of multiple coagulation factors from platelets trapped in the fibrin mesh of the clot. Thus, failure to retract can be a sign of thrombocytopenia or a rare condition called thrombasthenia. Blood clot prevention can be of use before this condition develops.
