Union Types
Many languages have trouble expressing data with weird shapes. They give you a small set of built-in types, and you have to represent everything with them. So you often find yourself using
null or booleans or strings to encode details in a way that is quite error prone.
Elm's union types let you represent complex data much more naturally. We will go through a couple concrete examples to build some intuition about how and when to use union types.
Note: Union types are sometimes called tagged unions. Some communities call them ADTs.
Filtering a Todo List
Problem: We are creating a todo list full of tasks. We want to have three views: show all tasks, show only active tasks, and show only completed tasks. How do we represent which of these three states we are in?
Whenever you have weird shaped data in Elm, you want to reach for a union type. In this case, we would create a type
Visibility that has three possible values:
> type Visibility = All | Active | Completed
> All
All : Visibility
> Active
Active : Visibility
> Completed
Completed : Visibility
Now that we have these three cases defined, we want to create a function
keep that will properly filter our tasks. It should work like this:
type alias Task = { task : String, complete : Bool }
buy : Task
buy =
{ task = "Buy milk", complete = True }
drink : Task
drink =
{ task = "Drink milk", complete = False }
tasks : List Task
tasks =
[ buy, drink ]
-- keep : Visibility -> List Task -> List Task
-- keep All tasks == [buy,drink]
-- keep Active tasks == [drink]
-- keep Complete tasks == [buy]
So the
keep function needs to look at its first argument, and depending on what it is, filter the list in various ways. We use a
case expression to do this. It is like an
if on steroids:
keep : Visibility -> List Task -> List Task
keep visibility tasks =
case visibility of
All ->
Active ->
List.filter (\task -> not task.complete) tasks
Completed ->
List.filter (\task -> task.complete) tasks
case is saying, look at the structure of
visibility. If it is
All, just give back all the tasks. If it is
Active, keep only the tasks that are not complete. If it is
Completed, keep only the tasks that are complete.
The cool thing about
case expressions is that all the branches are checked by the compiler. This has some nice benefits:
- If you mistype
Compleetby accident, you get a hint about the typo.
- If you forget to handle a case, the compiler will figure it out and tell you.
So say you want to add
Recent as a fourth possible
Visibility value. The compiler will find all the
case expressions in your code that work with
Visibility values and remind you to handle the new possibility! This means you can change and extend
Visibility without the risk of silently creating bugs in existing code.
Exercise: Imagine how you would solve this same problem in JavaScript. Three strings? A boolean that can be
null? What would the definition of
keeplook like? What sort of tests would you want to write to make sure adding new code later was safe.
Anonymous Users
Problem: We have a chat room where people can post whatever they want. Some users are logged in and some are anonymous. How should we represent a user?
Again, whenever there is weird shaped data, you want to reach for a union type. For this case, we want one where users are either anonymous or named:
> type User = Anonymous | Named String
> Anonymous
Anonymous : User
> Named
<function> : String -> User
> Named "AzureDiamond"
Named "AzureDiamond" : User
> Named "abraham-lincoln"
Named "abraham-lincoln" : User
So creating the type
User also created constructors named
Anonymous and
Named. If you want to create a
User you must use one of these two constructors. This guarantees that all the possible
User values are things like:
Named "AzureDiamond"
Named "abraham-lincoln"
Named "catface420"
Named "Tom"
Now that we have a representation of a user, lets say we want to get a photo of them to show next to their posts. Again, we need to use a
case expression to work with our
User type:
userPhoto : User -> String
userPhoto user =
case user of
Anonymous ->
Named name ->
"users/" ++ name ++ ".png"
There are two possible cases when we have a
User. If they are
Anonymous we show a dummy picture. If they are
Named we construct the URL of their photo. This
case is slightly fancier than the one we saw before. Notice that the second branch has a lower case variable
name. This means that when we see a value like
Named "AzureDiamond", the
name variable will be bound to
"AzureDiamond" so we can do other things with it. This is called pattern matching.
Now imagine we have a bunch of users in a chat room and we want to show their pictures.
activeUsers : List User
activeUsers =
[ Anonymous, Named "catface420", Named "AzureDiamond", Anonymous ]
photos : List String
photos =
List.map userPhoto activeUsers
-- [ "anon.png", "users/catface420.png", "users/AzureDiamond.png", "anon.png" ]
The nice thing about creating a type like
User is that no one in your whole codebase can ever "forget" that some users may be anonymous. Anyone who can get a hold of a
User needs to use a
case to get any information out of it, and the compiler guarantees every
case and handles all possible scenarios!
Exercise: Think about how you would solve this problem in some other language. A string where empty string means they are anonymous? A string that can be null? How much testing would you want to do to make sure that everyone handles these special cases correctly?
Widget Dashboard
Problem: You are creating a dashboard with three different kinds of widgets. One shows recent log data, one shows time plots, and one shows scatter plots. How do you represent a widget?
Alright, we are getting a bit fancier now. In Elm, you want to start by solving each case individually. (As you get more experience, you will see that Elm wants you to build programs out of small, reusable parts. It is weird.) So I would create representations for each of our three scenarios, along with
view functions to actually turn them into HTML or SVG or whatever:
type alias LogsInfo =
{ logs : List String
type alias TimeInfo =
{ events : List (Time, Float)
, yAxis : String
type alias ScatterInfo =
{ points : List (Float, Float)
, xAxis : String
, yAxis : String
-- viewLogs : LogsInfo -> Html msg
-- viewTime : TimeInfo -> Html msg
-- viewScatter : ScatterInfo -> Html msg
At this point, you have created all the helper functions needed to work with these three cases totally independent from each other. Someone can come along later and say, "I need a nice way to show scatter plots" and use just that part of the code.
So the question is really: how do I put these three standalone things together for my particular scenario?
Again, union types are there to put together a bunch of different types!
> type Widget = Logs LogsInfo | TimePlot TimeInfo | ScatterPlot ScatterInfo
> Logs
<function> : LogsInfo -> Widget
> TimePlot
<function> : TimeInfo -> Widget
> ScatterPlot
<function> : ScatterInfo -> Widget
So we created a
Widget type that can only be created with these constructor functions. You can think of these constructors as tagging the data so we can tell it apart at runtime. Now we can write something to render a widget like this:
view : Widget -> Html msg
view widget =
case widget of
Logs info ->
viewLogs info
TimePlot info ->
viewTime info
ScatterPlot info ->
viewScatter info
One nice thing about this approach is that there is no mystery about what kind of widgets are supported. There are exactly three. If someone wants to add a fourth, they modify the
Widget type. This means you can never be surprised by the data you get, even if someone on a different team is messing with your code.
- Solve each subproblem first.
- Use union types to put together all the solutions.
- Creating a union type generates a bunch of constructors.
- These constuctors tag data so that we can differentiate it at runtime.
caseexpression lets us tear data apart based on these tags.
The same strategies can be used if you are making a game and have a bunch of different bad guys. Goombas should update one way, but Koopa Troopas do something totally different. Solve each problem independently, and then use a union type to put them all together.
Linked Lists
Problem: You are stuck on a bus speeding down the highway. If the bus slows down, it will blow up. The only way to save yourself and everyone on the bus is to reimplement linked lists in Elm. HURRY, WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF GAS!
Yeah, yeah, the problem is contrived this time, but it is important to see some of the more advanced things you can do with union types!
A linked list is a sequence of values. If you are looking at a linked list, it is either empty or it is a value and more list. That list is either empty or is a value and more list. etc. This intuitive definition works pretty directly in Elm. Let's see it for lists of integers:
> type IntList = Empty | Node Int IntList
> Empty
Empty : IntList
> Node
<function> : Int -> IntList -> IntList
> Node 42 Empty
Node 42 Empty : IntList
> Node 64 (Node 128 Empty)
Node 64 (Node 128 Empty) : IntList
Now we did two new things here:
- The
Nodeconstructor takes two arguments instead of one. This is fine. In fact, you can have them take as many arguments as you want.
- Our union type is recursive. An
IntListmay hold another
IntList. Again, this is fine if you are using union types.
The nice thing about our
IntList type is that now we can only build valid linked lists. Every linked list needs to start with
Empty and the only way to add a new value is with
It is equally nice to work with. Let's say we want to compute the sum of all of the numbers in a list. Just like with any other union type, we need to use a
case and handle all possible scenarios:
sum : IntList -> Int
sum numbers =
case numbers of
Empty ->
Node n remainingNumbers ->
n + sum remainingNumbers
If we get an
Empty value, the sum is 0. If we have a
Node we add the first element to the sum of all the remaining ones. So an expression like
(sum (Node 1 (Node 2 (Node 3 Empty)))) is evaluated like this:
sum (Node 1 (Node 2 (Node 3 Empty)))
1 + sum (Node 2 (Node 3 Empty))
1 + (2 + sum (Node 3 Empty))
1 + (2 + (3 + sum Empty))
1 + (2 + (3 + 0))
1 + (2 + 3)
1 + 5
On each line, we see one evaluation step. When we call
sum it transforms the list based on whether it is looking at a
Node or an
Empty value.
Note: This is the first recursive function we have written together! Notice that
sumcalls itself to get the sum. It can be tricky to get into the mindset of writing recursive functions, so I wanted to share one weird trick. Pretend you are already done.
I always start with a
caseand all of the branches listed but not filled in. From there, I solve each branch one at a time, pretending that nothing else exists. So with
sumI'd look at
Empty ->and say, an empty list has to sum to zero. Then I'd look at the
Node n remainingNumbers ->branch and think, well, I know I have a number, a list, and a
sumfunction that definitely already exists and totally works. I can just use that and add a number to it!
Generic Data Structures
Problem: The last section showed linked lists that only worked for integers. That is pretty lame. How can we make linked lists that hold any kind of value?
Everything is going to be pretty much the same, except we are going to introduce a type variable in our definition of lists:
> type List a = Empty | Node a (List a)
> Empty
Empty : List a
> Node
<function> : a -> List a -> List a
> Node "hi" Empty
Node "hi" Empty : List String
> Node 1.618 (Node 6.283 Empty)
Node 1.618 (Node 6.283 Empty) : List Float
The fancy part comes in the
Node constructor. Instead of pinning the data to
Int and
IntList, we say that it can hold
a and
List a. Basically, you can add a value as long as it is the same type of value as everything else in the list.
Everything else is the same. You pattern match on lists with
case and you write recursive functions. The only difference is that our lists can hold anything now!
Exercise: This is exactly how the
Listtype in Elm works, so take a look at the
Listlibrary and see if you can implement some of those functions yourself.
Additional Examples
We have seen a couple scenarios, but the best way to get more comfortable is to use union types more! So here are two examples that are kind of fun.
Binary Trees
Binary trees are almost exactly the same as linked lists:
> type Tree a = Empty | Node a (Tree a) (Tree a)
> Node
<function> : a -> Tree a -> Tree a -> Tree a
> Node "hi" Empty Empty
Node "hi" Empty Empty : Tree String
A tree is either empty or it is a node with a value and two children. Check out this example for more info on this. If you can do all of the exercises at the end of that link, consider yourself a capable user of union types!
We can even model a programming language as data if we want to go really crazy! In this case, it is one that only deals with Boolean algebra:
type Boolean
| Not Boolean
| And Boolean Boolean
| Or Boolean Boolean
true = Or T F
false = And T (Not T)
Once we have modeled the possible values we can define functions like
eval which evaluates any
Boolean to
True or
False. See this example for more about representing boolean expressions.

A very grown-up looking Dakota Fanning attended the Met Gala as a guest of Rodarte.
The actress looked beautiful in the sheer-paneled geometric gown, and by simply modifying the look to have a slightly higher v-neckline, she actually looks far more ladylike and graceful in the gown than the runway model.
She's following the sideswept hair trend of the night, which, along with her black nails, is her nod to punk.
I think this is subtle and beautiful, and a total win. Do you like the look, or do you wish she'd taken a bigger risk?

Google is highlighting the current flare up of the Iranian Revolution (GR88) protesters.
Video embedded below.
http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/ordinary-citizens-extraordinary-videos.html (and and)
"The images are grainy, often jerky and hard to follow (like most footage shot using hand-held cameras and cellphones), but the message is unmistakable: in the months since the disputed Iranian presidential election in June, the people of Iran have become fluent in the new language of citizen video reporting. What might have seemed an isolated moment immediately following the election, when we watched videos of Iranians marching, battling and even dying on the streets of Tehran, appears to have become an essential part of their struggle.
At YouTube, we have been watching week after week as new videos have appeared on the site within hours of every single protest or similar event reported from Iran in the past six months. Thousands of uploads have brought the fear and tension of these protests to YouTube, inviting millions of views around the world. It is as if the revolts that are taking place could not do so outside the eye of the camera.
Unlike traditional news footage from foreign correspondents (currently prohibited in Iran), these videos are the voice of the people — unfiltered, unedited and with a single, sometimes disturbing point of view. No professional film could capture the one-to-one feeling of watching an ordinary citizen's images of unrest in his or her own country."

Google is supposed to be against violence and tons of videos were deleted due to violence less than this.
I am from Egypt and not supporting Iran, however I see this video as a complete US government dominance over Google !

Kate Hudson under fire for comments on C-Sections
Kate Hudson is facing criticism following an interview she gave for Cosmopolitan. Cosmo does one of those 'things you don't know about me' sections.
Some of the questions included "the last photo I took on my phone," "my me-time rituals," and 'what I do to destress'.
Her response to "the laziest thing I've ever done" rubbed many people the wrong way.

— jordan johnson (@jtrouttt) September 9, 2017
"I've been a fan for a long time, but I was incredibly disappointed to read your comment regarding your C-section. How very inappropriate and insensitive,"
"Maybe if us c section moms weren't made to feel like crap , we could all just laugh this off as a bad joke," added another. "Buuut here we are, with the 'natural birth' community shaming us, and comments like this hurt those of us who had no choice."
Many people also defended Hudson by noting that she was referring to her personal decision to have a C-section.
Others pointed out what she meant was it was her choice in that moment not necessity.

After wondering around and surveying all the options we decided to kick off proceedings at Bao London, which is a wandering market stall serving up Taiwanese cuisine, including Gua Bao, the traditional pork filled milk bun. This should be familiar to anyone who has read a review of Flesh & Buns by now.
It was filled with pork belly, coriander, asian pickle and peanut powder, and (though I did not have the peanut on mine, can't stand the things) it was divine. Such a satisfying couple of mouthfuls to start the day off.
After digging headfirst into the pork buns, we felt like we needed a palette cleanser before moving onto something a bit more substantial. This came in the form of Stan's Snow Cones. Essentially, ice shards are shaved off of a massive block of ice and topped up with fruit syrup. I had Rhubarb and Jasmine, which was lovely and refreshing, but I felt like I have made a tactical error not ordering Eddie's selection of Plum and Almond that was so packed full of flavour. Oh, there is something I forgot to mention about Stan. He is just a 13 year old kid from Lewes who saw snow cones being made on the streets of New York, asked the vendors where they got their kit, and lugged it back to England with him. I wish I was that enterprising at his age.
Next up was the big pink El Taco Truck all the way from Stockholm. You locals, this is a truck you need to catch up with. Pretty basic, they had on sale at Street Feast three tacos: Smoked Port Chuleta, Refried Beans and Soft Shell Crab. For me and my memories of California, the only taco in my book is stuffed with fresh seafood.
Say hello to my Soft Shell Crab Taco, which up until my dessert (more on that in a bit) was the best thing I ate at Street Feast. Now, being an honorary and former Angeleno, I have in my mind have the bar for a good seafood taco set pretty high. So much so that I initially thought I did not like this taco, because it was not up to the scratch of what I thought a taco should taste like. The shell was not right, and the pickle was a bit too European, rather than Mexican in flavour. But then I bit into the lightly tempura soft shell crab. I got such a divine and fishy seafood bite I was suddenly transported back onto the Santa Monica waterfront. It was a bloody good taco, and as I said, one of my favourite things that I ate that afternoon once I got over my initial mind set of what a good, Mexican seafood taco should taste like.
Let's spend a moment to talk about something that had been recommend to me, but Eddie had to sample instead on account of the masses of cheese I could not eat. From a German food truck came this regional speciality of Kaesespaetzle noodle casserole. Essentially homemade pasta with homemade cheese (three types) to make a rich and creamy mac and cheese. It was topped with spring onions and crispy fried onion pieces, and I can tell from his face and how fast it disappeared, that it was fantastic.
No London street food fest would be complete without Big Apple Hot Dogs which has been on my radar and a favourite of mine since Rose profiled their original pitch by Old Street Station back in 2011 and I had one for dinner after an interview for a freelancing gig around the corner. Well, they've come a long way since that small stall and they can be found on quite a few menus throughout London.
As we were getting pretty full at this point we opted to split one of their straight pork hot dogs before adding our own choice of toppings. My half of the thick, juicy, meaty and luscious dog was finished off with German mustard and perfectly picked cucumbers, a favourite condiment of mine since I pickled my own this Summer for the first time.
After a beer break, dessert was calling. As you can tell from the above photo I stole from Eddie's Instagram, when I know there is going to be ice cream involved I'm a woman on a mission. Let me introduce you to what I thought was the very best street vendor that day, Ginger's Comfort Emporium Ice Cream Truck. Now, she's Manchester based, so I'm absolutely begging all of my readers based up there to hunt her truck down, because I promise you that she will serve you up some of the best ice cream you've ever tasted. For the rest of us, she has a recipe book out called Melt that is already on my Amazon Wish List.
So, obviously Street Feast Europe was a one off event, and while if you are local to them I urge you to go around and find all of the trucks I've mentioned, you're wanting to know how you can find out about other events like this in the future, right? Street Feast Europe was a collaboration between Street Feast and Tweat Up, so you can pop over to their sites and sign up to their newsletters to find out when their next London street food events are going to be, and you can also follow Street Feast and Tweat Up on Twitter. I will be seeing you at an event in future!

This is my second annual roundup for the 31 Horror Films in 31 Days challenge. I had such a great time doing it last year, that I just had to do it again. The rules are pretty simple — beginning October 1st watch 31 previously unseen horror movies by midnight of Halloween, tweeting each one with a descriptive blurb and the hashtag #31HorrorFilms31Days.
The real "challenge" comes into play cobbling together a list of 31 horror movies I've never seen before and stand a decent chance of being good. I cheated only a little with The Birds; I had seen it before but this was the first time on a big screen, so I decided to include it. If you think you know Hitchcock but have never seen any of his films on a theater size movie screen then I'm telling you you're missing out. You have no idea. It's like seeing the movie for the first time (and definitely how Hitchcock envisioned the size of the canvas he was working with). This makes all the difference.
There seemed to be a lot more duds this year peddling plain sloppy examples of lazy and unimaginative movie making and storytelling. But coming out of that mixed bag of uninspired mediocrity were some of the scariest (and funniest) horror movies I've seen in a long, long, time, so I'm still calling this year a huge win.
Topping my list this year for outright scariest, achieving a surprising amount within its very modest indie budget is the Australian flick Lake Mungo (2008). Its simple but incredibly convincing faux documentary style relies on no special effects, no jump scares or loud music, and it still SCARED THE LIVING BEJEBUS out of me. It accomplishes so much with so little — this is as stripped down and bare bones as movie making gets, but it all felt so authentic and engaging, pulling you right into the heart of this family and the tragedy they're experiencing. So not only is it a believable portrait of grief, it really digs at the psychological costs of grieving and how we might process an actual haunting. This is a movie that impressed me with its ambitious ending too. It's a twisty narrative that when it finally departs from its straight-forward premise where you think you know exactly what's going on, the movie is going to jangle your nerves, terrify you, break your brain (and then your heart). Watch it!
Another winner from Down Under is the post-apocalyptic zombie flick Wyrmwood (2014). I've been burning out on zombies of late (and I place the blame firmly at the feet of The Walking Dead for my zombie fatigue — so glad I stopped watching). But this loud, action-packed, gory and edgy zombie fest from Australia is smart and innovative with some Mad Max thematic overtones to act as the cherry on top. The zombie genre is SO well-trod it's really a challenge to pull off anything new, but Wyrmwood succeeds splendidly. Trust me, put this one on your watch list. And tell your friends! I want a sequel.
Another HUGE SURPRISE was the Lovecraftian romantic horror mash-up (yes, you read that right) — Spring (2014). This one was so unexpectedly great, I almost gave it five stars. Not only is it a convincing love story set in a beautiful Italian landscape, it is a terrifying contemplation on body horror and metamorphosis. It's subtle yet consuming, with great dialogue and fantastic chemistry between the two leads. And don't just take my word for it: horror maestro and creative genius Guillermo del Toro tweeted that it's "one of the best horror films of this decade."
The FUNNIEST horror comedy that I watched this year had to be What We Do In The Shadows (though I finally got around to seeing Dale and Tucker vs Evil and that almost tied with it). Both of them I will watch again because they're that good. What We Do In The Shadows is a mockumentary out of New Zealand from the creator of Flight of the Conchords. If you weren't a fan of that show, don't let that stop you from checking out this HILARIOUS look at the life of a den of modern vampires sharing a house together trying to navigate their challenging condition and their annoyances with one another. It's fresh, cheeky and a whole bucketful of bloody fun.
And lastly, while not strictly a horror movie per se, I finally got around to seeing Green Room with Patrick Stewart and the gone much too soon Anthon Yelchin. This is a gripping, edge of your seat, white-knuckle thriller that grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go until the final credits roll. It is INTENSE, extremely well-acted, and not easily forgotten. The violence is graphic, but not gratuitous, and the suspense and tension unrelenting. If you haven't seen it yet, add Green Room to your queue. You won't regret it.
Lastly, please share what scared YOU this October. I'm already working on my list for next year!

Beyonce: 'Double Exposure' Premieres Tonight!
Remember this picture? You should! It's Beyonce's first album cover, Dangerously in Love, as captured by celeb photog duo Markus Klinko and Indrani – a former couple.
During the photo shoot, the jeweled top apparently came with a skirt but Beyonce didn't like it.
Markus shared, "[Beyonce] said, 'I just don't like the skirt.' So I said, 'Why don't you wear jeans?' She said, 'We don't have any.' So I suggested, 'Why don't you wear my jeans?' She said, 'Cool.' I took my pants off, she put them on…
Indrani added, "So she really (literally) got into Markus' pants!"
Markus & Indrani have a reality show called Double Exposure, which airs TONIGHT (June 15) @ 10PM ET/PT on Bravo! The show follows their world of high fashion and celebrity photography with shoots from Lady Gaga to Lindsay Lohan.

Ladybug is posing on a roof and looking awesome, or would be, if her picture weren't completely black and white, without a single drop of color. Markers and crayons are our weapons in this challenge without villains to be beaten. Instead, the opponent is the lack of color, defeated by a few brushes in this online coloring game. Use imagination and lots of paint while having fun with her to fix it. She will be much admired and will appreciate any help to save his photograph, which so far isn't looking as great as it could be.

Redeemer Presbyterian Church is located on the west side of Spartanburg. We are situated near half a dozen small towns that are gradually transitioning from rural communities into suburbs of Spartanburg.
In 1761, a group of Pennsylvania Irish settlers came to the area, joined a few years later by other settlers arriving directly from Ireland. Together, they settled the Tyger River highlands. The western edge of Spartanburg County was developed into farms and homesteads by these settlers.
Christian worship was very important to them, so they banded together for meetings. In 1772, a brick building, later known as the Nazareth Presbyterian Church, the oldest Presbyterian Church in Spartanburg County, was erected.
Following the Civil War, the textile industry became the foundation of Spartanburg County's economy, but after World War II consolidation of mills undermined the local economy. By the 1970s, international companies began to locate in the Upstate, revitalizing the economy. In 1992, the BMW Manufacturing Corporation built a plant in Spartanburg County that employs more than 4,500 workers; today more than 100 international companies are located in Spartanburg.
The textile industry is still present in the Upstate of South Carolina. Milliken, one of Spartanburg County's top employers, is one of the largest privately held textile and chemical Manufacturers in the world, and employs 9,300 workers in the U.S. Milliken is ranked by Fortune Magazine as one of the "100 Best Companies to Work For."
Moore — Redeemer's Hometown
Moore is known for its Niven's Apple Farm, one of the largest producers and sellers of apples in Spartanburg County.
Moore was originally home to Walnut Grove Plantation, one of the first colonial English settlements in South Carolina. It was built by Charles and Mary Moore in 1765 and was a stronghold of patriotism during the Revolutionary War.
At one time, Moore was home to the studio of the Marshall Tucker band. The studio is no longer used, but it still stands on Main Street beside the post office and Presbyterian Church.
In nearby Duncan, the Byrnes High School football team, the Rebels, has achieved national recognition. The community is proud of their team!
Our Neighbors
has a population of about 500.
has a population of 2,870 in an area of 3.51square miles.
has a population of 3,000 in an area of 4.15 square miles. The community was named for Arthur Lyman, who supervised a local textile mill.
has a population of 1,000.
has a population of 2,030 in an area of 2.04 square miles. It is located about 1 mile north- east of Lyman.
has a population of only 300, but over 5,000 people live in the area designated as the Moore postal area.

On January 17, 2013, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) publically released the long-awaited HIPAA Omnibus Final Rule (Final Rule). The Final Rule (1) implements many provisions of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2009 (HITECH Act), expanding the privacy and security standards directly governing covered entities and business associates; (2) modifies the interim final rule for Breach Notification for Unsecured Protected Health Information (Breach Notification Rule); (3) modifies the HIPAA Privacy Rule to strengthen the privacy protections for genetic information by implementing section 105 of Title I of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA); and (4) makes certain other modifications to the HIPAA Privacy, Security and Enforcement Rules to improve their workability. Notably, the Final Rule does not address the anticipated accounting of disclosures requirements, which was the subject of a separate proposed rule published on May 1, 2011.
The effective date of the Final Rule is March 26, 2013, and covered entities and business associates must comply with the applicable provisions by September 23, 2013.
Below we have highlighted some of the significant changes that the Final Rule makes to the current landscape of HIPAA regulations.
Breach Notification Rule
- The Final Rule revises the definition of "breach" such that there is an automatic presumption that an impermissible use or disclosure of protected health information (PHI) constitutes a breach. As a result, breach notification is necessary in all situations except those in which the covered entity or business associate, as applicable, demonstrates that there is a low probability that PHI has been compromised or one of the other exceptions to the definition of "breach" applies.
- HHS removes the harm standard. Instead of assessing the risk of harm to the individual, covered entities and business associates must assess the probability that PHI has been compromised based on a risk assessment.
- The Final Rule modifies the risk assessment procedure to focus on objective factors. Therefore, if a covered entity or business associate performs a risk assessment to determine whether there is a low probability that PHI has been compromised, then the risk assessment must consider, at a minimum, the following factors: 1) the nature and extent of the PHI involved, including the likelihood of re-identification of the information; 2) the unauthorized person(s) who used or received the PHI; 3) whether the PHI was acquired or viewed; and 4) the extent to which the compromise of the PHI has been mitigated. Other factors may also be considered where necessary. HHS plans to provide entities with additional guidance related to risk assessments and frequently occurring breach scenarios.
- HHS notes that a covered entity or business associate has the discretion to provide the required breach notifications following an impermissible use or disclosure of PHI without performing a risk assessment. Because there is a presumption that a breach has occurred following every impermissible use or disclosure of PHI, entities may decide to notify without evaluating the probability of the compromise.
- The Final Rule removes the exception to the breach definition related to limited data sets. Therefore, following an impermissible use or disclosure of any limited data set, even those that do not include dates of birth and zip codes, covered entities or business associates must notify affected individuals or perform a risk assessment and determine that breach notification is not required.
Modifications of HIPAA Privacy, Security and Enforcement Rules
- The definition of "PHI" explicitly excludes information related to a person deceased for more than 50 years.
- The Final Rule confirms the enhanced enforcement penalties as well as the willful neglect standard, which carry additional penalties, and acceptable affirmative defenses.
Business Associates
- The definition of a "business associate" has been expanded to generally include all those entities that create, receive, maintain, or transmit PHI on behalf of a covered entity. The business associate definition now includes subcontractors, Patient Safety Organizations, Health Information Organizations, e-prescribing Gateways, and vendors of Personal Health Records that provide services on behalf of a covered entity.
- The Final Rule sets forth permissible uses and disclosures of PHI by business associates. Effectively, business associates are directly liable for impermissible uses and disclosures of PHI. HHS may impose penalties on the covered entity, business associate, or both if the Secretary establishes a violation of an applicable provision of HIPAA.
- Business associates are directly responsible for compliance with the Security Rules' implementation specifications. Business associates must ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all electronic PHI through reasonable and appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. Business associates are now also required to conduct a risk analysis of potential security risks and vulnerabilities.
Business Associate Agreements
- The Final Rule makes business associate agreements (BAAs) applicable to arrangements involving a business associate and a subcontractor of that business associate in the same manner as BAAs apply to arrangements between covered entities and business associates. To the extent a subcontractor creates, receives, maintains, or transmits PHI, then a business associate must have a BAA with the subcontractor.
- HHS notes the continued need for BAAs by covered entities even though business associates are now held directly accountable for many provisions of HIPAA. HHS believes BAAs are necessary to clarify and limit permissible uses and disclosures of PHI, ensure business associates are contractually responsible for activities they are not directly liable for under HIPAA, and clarify respective responsibilities related to patient rights, such as access to PHI.
- Each agreement in the BAA chain must be as or more stringent than the one above it regarding the uses and disclosures of PHI.
- The Final Rule provides an important transition period for existing BAAs. The transition period allows existing BAAs, which are not renewed or modified between March 26 and September 23, 2013, to remain compliant until the earlier of 1) the date the BAA is renewed or modified on or after September 23, 2013; or 2) September 22, 2014.
Notice of Privacy Practices
- The Final Rule will require covered entities to modify their Notice of Privacy Practices (NPP).
- An NPP must include a description of types of uses and disclosures that require an authorization. The NPP must include a statement that other uses and disclosures not described in the NPP will be made with the individual's written authorization and that such authorization(s) may be revoked.
- If the covered entity engages in fundraising activities, the NPP must explain that the individual may be contacted to raise funds, but retains the right to opt-out of such communications.
- An NPP must include a statement related to an individual's right to request a restriction as well as a statement that covered entities are not required to agree to such a request.
- An NPP must provide a statement that the covered entity is required to notify affected individuals of breaches of unsecured PHI.
- For health plans that engage in underwriting activities, the NPP must include a statement that the covered entity is prohibited from using or disclosing PHI that is genetic information for such purposes.
Patient Rights
- Covered entities must agree to an individual's request to restrict PHI if the information pertains solely to a health care item or service for which the individual, or person other than the health plan on behalf of the individual, has paid in full out of pocket.
- Covered entities must provide an individual with access to PHI in the electronic form and format requested by the individual if the PHI is maintained electronically in one or more designated record sets. Covered entities may charge for the labor for copying PHI requested by the individual.
- Covered entities continue to have 30 days to respond to requests for access to PHI; no shorter time period is required despite potential instantaneous availability of electronic PHI.
- The Final Rule requires authorization for all treatment and health care operations communication where the covered entity receives financial remuneration from a third party whose product or service is being marketed. The Final Rule removed the notice of remuneration and opt-out language requirement that had been included in the proposed rule.
- Exceptions to the authorization requirement include refill reminders and other communications about currently prescribed drugs or biologics. However, HHS interprets the permissible costs under this exception to include only those which cover the costs of labor, supplies, and postage to make the communications. Thus, if a covered entity receives an amount in excess of the allowable costs, authorization is again required.
- Other exceptions to the authorization requirement include the promotion of health in general, provided that the communications do not promote the products and services of a particular provider, and the promotion of government and government-sponsored programs.
- The Final Rule prohibits the sale of PHI by covered entities and business associates; however, the Final Rule described disclosures excluded from the definition of "sale of protected health information," provided remuneration is reasonable and cost-based.
- The Final Rule permits compound authorizations for research purposes. Specifically, it allows the authorization for disclosure of PHI for a research study to be combined with any other written permission for the same or another study.
- Where a covered health care provider has conditioned the provision of research-related treatment on the provision of one of the authorizations, any compound authorization must clearly differentiate between the conditioned and unconditioned components and provide the individual with an opportunity to opt-in to the research activities described in the unconditioned authorization.
- To harmonize HIPAA's authorization requirements with the Common Rule of informed consent, the Final Rule modifies HHS' previous interpretation that HIPAA research authorizations must be study specific. With respect to authorizations for future research, an authorization for future research purposes is permissible so long as it describes such purposes in a manner that allows the individual to reasonably expect the future use(s) or disclosure(s) of PHI for research.
Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA)
- The Final Rule prohibits most health plans from using or disclosing genetic information for underwriting purposes.
- Long-term care plans are exempt from these underlying prohibitions.
In its press release, HHS stated that the Final Rule "greatly enhances a patient's privacy protections, provides individuals new rights to their health information, and strengthens the government's ability to enforce the law." However, it also recognized the significant costs that may result from the overhaul of these regulatory specifications. Compliance costs include the necessary revisions and distributions of revised NPPs; assessing potential breaches; drafting and implementing BAAs for subcontractor arrangements; and implementing revised policies and procedures. For more information regarding the Final Rule, HIPAA compliance, or implementation of applicable provisions of the HITECH Act, please contact any member of Drinker Biddle's Health Care Practice Group.
In the coming weeks, we will be publishing a series of client alerts addressing in more depth specific provisions of the Final Rule.

He holds a Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award (2012 – 2017). After his undergraduate studies in Applied Physics at Delft University of Technology (the Netherlands), Jeroen started his PhD in Leo Kouwenhoven's Quantum Transport group at the Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Delft. There he focused on building an electron spin qubit and demonstrated how to electrically isolate and read out single electron spins in semiconductor quantum dots. After his PhD, Jeroen wanted to learn about optical techniques for controlling semiconductor spins. He therefore moved to Switzerland to work with Atac Imamoglu in the Institute for Quantum Electronics at ETH Zurich. After initial efforts with semiconductor nanowires, he turned his attention to coupled self-assembled quantum dots ("artificial molecules") when he became a senior scientist. Jeroen moved to UCL in 2012 to start his own experimental group, which is focused on quantum photonics with electronic and nuclear spins in semiconductor nanostructures. He has published over thirty papers with almost 4000 citations and has an h-index of 18. Career History 2012 – present: Senior Lecturer, Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering and London Centre for Nanotechnology, UCL 2007 – 2012: Senior Scientist, Institute for Quantum Electronics, ETH Zurich 2005 – 2007: Postdoctoral Scientist, Institute for Quantum Electronics, ETH Zurich Education Ph.D. in Quantum Nanoscience, Kavli Institute of Nanoscience Delft (2004) M.Sc. in Applied Physics, Delft University of Technology (1999) Awards and honours Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award (2012 – 2017) ResearchResearch: Jeroen's current research centres around solid-state quantum photonics. His group uses laser light to manipulate the quantum state of electronic and nuclear spins in semiconductor nanostructures. The goal is to controllably couple multiple spins confined in real or artificial atoms, and build a small quantum network that can store and process quantum information. This could lead to a new class of devices, which exploit the underlying quantum mechanical nature of matter to perform tasks that are beyond the capabilities of current classical technology. The experimental techniques that his group specializes in are confocal microscopy at low temperatures (down to 4 K) and high magnetic fields (up to 10 T), as well as high-resolution resonant spectroscopy and time-resolved resonance fluorescence from single quantum emitters. A variety of systems and devices are studied, including self-assembled single and coupled quantum dots ("artificial atoms and molecules"), semiconductor nanowires, and naturally occurring spins in bulk semiconductors. Recent results include the demonstration that two coupled electron spins can be used to form a highly coherent singlet-triplet spin qubit, which is robust against both electric and magnetic noise coming from the semiconductor environment.

Prince Edward Island is a delight of rolling green hills, pasture, and farms, ringed by sandy beaches, red cliffs, cozy coves and bays. The capital Charlottetown charms with small-town ambience, maritime heritage and Victorian style.Find Cruises Sailing to This Port
The magic of Prince Edward Island was so inspirational for the famous author L.M. Montgomery that she chose it as the setting for her much-loved novel, Anne of Green Gables. Today you can let the pages spring to life as you explore the Green Gables house, Haunted Wood and Balsam Hollow that set the stage for this world-renowned classic tale in what locals refer to as "Anne's land."
Beaches abound on this tiny atoll. As a matter-of-fact, they say that no matter where you are on the island you're never more than 15 minutes away. Some are hopping. Some are virtually deserted. Some are warm enough to swim in. And one even has "singing sands." Take an ocean kayak adventure, go fishing and explore the island's spectacular sea (you may even spot a seal or two). And if you're looking for another great way to get your adrenaline up, two-wheel it! There's no better way to take in all this spectacular scenery than on a bike and there are plenty of paths to pick from. The Confederation Trail covers most of the island - about 200 miles - if your legs are up for it!
Have you ever tried Malpeque oysters or Island Blue Mussels? Here's your chance! As you can imagine, the seafood is mouthwatering and lobster is a local favorite. So break out the butter and a bib. And in case you didn't know, Prince Edward Island is famous for its potatoes, so make sure to sample some and see what all the buzz is about.
If you're looking to bring home a few mementoes from your trip, Charlottetown's your town. The Confederation Court Mall is the city's shopping mecca where you can find serious retail therapy in over 90 shops. Searching for authentic handmade specialties? You'll be glad to know crafting is taken very seriously on Prince Edward Island, so make sure to put some pottery, woolen sweaters, wooden crafts and soap on your must-have list.

US Patent Allowed for Spring Action That Separates Protectus Innovative Safety Syringe From All Others
MINNEAPOLIS, July 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Protectus Medical Devices, Inc. (OTCQB: PTMD), developer and marketer of innovative safety medical devices, announced today it has received Notice of Allowance from the US Patent and Trademark Office on its patent application describing a spring-activated, automatic, self-sheathing Safety Syringe, a major step toward it becoming the gold standard in safety syringe devices.
Dr. John Salstrom, CEO, said the unique spring-activation feature distinguishes the Protectus Safety Syringe and its entire line of safety needle devices from all others and, like no other, has the very real potential to significantly reduce accidental needlestick injuries automatically without any action by users.
Jack Dillard, COO and inventor of the Protectus/SquareOne Medical Safety Syringe and its family of safety needle devices, said, "The key elements of this patent provide coverage for the spring responsible for the automatic deployment of the Protectus safety technology that keeps users, patients and other healthcare workers safe during and after use without having to perform any conscience action."
Protectus also announced today the filing of its patent application for a Safety IV Catheter/Cannula Introducer. This device, along with the Protectus Safety Dental Syringe (patent application previously announced), both employ the same spring-activated safety features as the Protectus Safety Syringe, as does the soon-to-be announced Protectus Safety Phlebotomy device. All three devices will benefit significantly from the additional coverage provided by claims allowed in the new patent referenced by the above-mentioned Notice of Allowa

By Nick Mulvenney
MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Canadian teenager Eugenie Bouchard kept her poise in the biggest match of her life to oust Ana Ivanovic in a three-set thriller and set up an Australian Open semi-final against China's Li Na on Tuesday.
Li dispatched Italy's Flavia Pennetta 6-2 6-2 in just over an hour in the first quarter-final of the day on Rod Laver Arena to reach the last four for the fourth time in five years at Melbourne Park.
Novak Djokovic will be out to reach a 15th consecutive grand slam semi-final when he takes on Stan Wawrinka in the quarter-finals later on Tuesday after Tomas Berdych and David Ferrer battle it out in the first men's match on center court.
Fourth seed Li became a strong favorite to reach her third final in four years after Ivanovic stunned world number one Serena Williams on Sunday to blow open the top half of the draw.
Ivanovic, hindered by a hip niggle, was unable to take advantage of the path she had cleared to the final, however, and instead Bouchard will take on 31-year-old Li after prevailing 5-7 7-5 6-2 in the second quarter-final.
"It's not exactly a surprise," said the confident 19-year-old, the first Canadian to reach the last four in Melbourne.
"I always expect myself to do well. I'm just happy to have gone through this step. I'm not done. I have a match on Thursday. I'm just looking forward to that."
Serbian Ivanovic had looked on course for a first grand slam semi-final since her 2008 French Open triumph after clinching the first set in 47 minutes.
But Bouchard charged straight back into the contest, breaking to lead 3-1 in the second set and holding her nerve to break again to level the match when Ivanovic double-faulted.
"I tried to show I was calm. I did feel confident," Bouchard said.
"Having lost the first set, I just tried to focus on what I had to do during the point to try to win, really just try to keep pressing her and moving forward.
"I felt like my game kind of got a bit better as the match went on. I feel like in the first set I was close, but I was kind of missing shots just by a little bit ...
"I felt like my game was there and I just needed to relax a little bit and play."
'GENIE's ARMY'
Ivanovic tried to wrest back the momentum but as much as she ramped up her formidable forehand, there was no putting this particular Genie back in the bottle.
Cheered on by "Genie's Army" - the band of young Australians who reward her with a cuddly toy after every victory - Bouchard was a match for everything the 14th seed threw at her and sealed victory after two hours and 24 minutes.
"I was emotionally a little bit flat," admitted Ivanovic. "I was lacking a little bit aggressiveness that I had in my previous matches.
"I think she has very bright future in front of her. She's very aggressive player. It's sometimes very hard to read her game. There is no really patterns like with other players you have. She's a great mover."
Bouchard lost her composure only when she was asked in her on-court interview who she would most like to date, giggling as she declared a liking for pop star Justin Bieber.
Li's victory was, by contrast, a 67-minute stroll on another cool morning by the banks of the Yarra River as she blasted her 28th-seeded opponent off the court with a strong first serve and barrage of powerful ground strokes.
After her victory, Li entertained the crowd on Rod laver Arena with another of the interviews that have made her a firm favorite at Melbourne Park - this time about how she would never smash a racket as she considers them friends.
It was left to her fellow thirtysomething Pannetta to assess the world number four and former French Open champion's form.
"I think she's just improved her game a lot," said the Italian, who was 2-2 in career meetings with Li going into Tuesday's match.
"She's really consistent. But she's one of the best players. Today she was much better than me in the court.
"In the last year, she has improved her game a lot. She's more consistent with the forehand. And her serve, it's working really good also. She's a really good player."

And, on 7/7/05, London joins the ranks of Western cities attacked by Al Qaida, or one of its affiliates. No expression of sadness will change that this form of coordinated terrorism has become an unfortunate fact of life in our society.
Begin cold analysis: If Al Qaida's goal is terror, that is, scaring the pants out of Westerners so that they'll cede to their demands, then the types of attacks they've accomplished so far work, but only for a short time. Soon afterwards, daily life returns to normal in New York, Madrid, and, eventually ... London. Then, the powers that be lower the "terror threat levels" (or equivalent) and begin preparing for the previous attack. A successful terrorist/terrorist organization wants ordinary people to be in fear at all times. And, the only way to do that is by sustained attacks, similar to what Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the Popular Front, etc. do in Israel. They don't have to be large scale, but they do have to hit the daily lives of the general population (bus bombings, shooting attacks on roads). I think that the terrorists understand that too. And, so, the amount of planning and coordination that went into 9/11, 3/11 and 7/7 may betray a weakness in Al Qaida. There probably aren't enough terrorists to sustain attacks. If there were, I don't see why they wouldn't, What that means for us is that we may still have a small window of opportunity to keep the terrorists from gaining in the West. But, every day, that window is getting smaller. A glimmer of hope in the madness?

Hartwell pens own headlines
Two-sport athlete also sidelines as a writer with pro experience
Williams College's Darren Hartwell can cover just about anyone in sports, but defenders have a difficult time covering him.
A native of North Reading, Mass., Hartwell has spent his career at Williams juggling two sports – football and baseball – and working for the college's sports information department as a writer in the offseason.
Hartwell had written game reports about his baseball team for his local newspaper during high school. At the beginning of his sophomore year at Williams, he attended a meeting with the school's Sports Information Director, Dick Quinn, who was looking for students to help cover the Ephs' 30 varsity sports for the athletics website.
Since he could only cover a sport during the winter because of commitments with football and baseball, Hartwell asked Quinn if men's hockey was open.
"I told him to get into his season and see if he was still interested," Quinn said. "In his second game, he tied the school record with three touchdown catches in a win over Trinity. I walked up to him and said, 'You're hired.' "
Quinn was impressed with Hartwell's first hockey story and his understanding of the nuances of the game.
"After I read his first story, I asked him if he'd played hockey before and he had not, but he really had a grasp for the game," Quinn said. "It was a very good article. He continued to do well."
Hartwell's part-time job writing about the Ephs' men's hockey teams not only brought in a little extra cash, but also led to some experiences of a lifetime for the cub reporter.
A life-long Boston Red Sox fan, Hartwell jumped at an opportunity to work with Gordon Edes of ESPNBoston, covering the team at Fenway Park after being recommended by Quinn for the position.
"Dick asked me if I wanted to work at Red Sox games, but he wouldn't tell me what it was doing," Hartwell said.
"It was definitely nerve-wracking the first time I went into a professional sports locker room on my first day with the Red Sox," Hartwell said. "I'd grown up watching these guys. But it was also interesting, as an athlete, to be on the other side of the fence. That was a cool experience for me."
One of Hartwell's most memorable moments was interviewing New York Yankees pitcher C.C. Sabathia before a crowd of reporters in the visiting team clubhouse for a game preview that ended up on the front of ESPN.com's Major League Baseball page.
"[The job] was a great experience," Hartwell said. "It became a lot more than I thought it would – I thought it would just be getting quotes and transcribing them. They let me write articles and I really enjoyed that."
In the winter of his junior year, Hartwell interned again for ESPNBoston, this time covering the NHL's Boston Bruins and getting credit for an independent study.
Last summer, he was a fellow at X-Mester – a program that indoctrinates high school students to college life – and taught a sports journalism class. He followed that by working for the New England Patriots during preseason camp, writing articles for Patriots Football Weekly and blog posts for Patriots.com.
"My favorite was working with the Patriots because I had never been to one of their games or practices," Hartwell said. "To see professional football up close, it's pretty amazing to see how good those guys are."
Hartwell, a History major, enjoys sports writing, but is still undecided on whether he will pursue it as a career.
"I'm still not 100 percent on what I want to do, but I have had a lot of fun doing it so I'm definitely the exploring options," Hartwell said. "I would really like to work in sports …whether it is in the press box, or with an organization or writing for someone."
While he has written about several famous professional athletes, Hartwell has also made a name for himself as one of the top wide receivers in Division III's New England Small College Athletic Conference.
Hartwell has earned All-NESCAC honors in each of the last two seasons, combining for 85 receptions for 1,368 yards and 16 touchdown catches in 16 games as Williams plays only eight games a year.
"In the last three years, Darren has been one of the most dynamic players not only on our team, but in our conference," Williams coach Aaron Kelton said. "He's a long, lean kid who has speed and agility, and has come into his own over the last couple of years with his ability to get open and catch balls and touchdowns and run by people."
This year, Hartwell was voted a tri-captain by his teammates and coaches.
"He leads by example," Kelton said. "He's tremendous around campus, and he leads on the field not only by his play, but helps lift the guys vocally, too. Everything he gets his hands on really seems to turn to gold for him."
Williams opened the season on Sept. 22 with a 41-7 victory against Colby and Hartwell didn't miss a beat, catching eight passes for 92 yards and two TDs. He also tied the school's career touchdown receptions record at 18.
"We don't play for records here, but it was a tremendous honor to be able to share that on Saturday with him," Kelton said.
Hartwell, who could break the mark against Trinity (Conn.), is not concerned with the statistics -- he just wants an Ephs' victory.
"Last year, we finished 5-3, but we were 8-0 the year before that," Hartwell said. "I'm looking to getting back to that 8-0 record, and finishing my career strong. I'd really like to go out on top."

VILNIUS (Reuters) - Lithuanian president Dalia Grybauskaite won a second term in run-off elections on Sunday as her anti-Russian political message struck a chord among voters.
Grybauskaite, a 58-year-old former European Budget Commissioner and former minister of finance, attracted 57.9 percent of the votes in the nation of 3 million, the electoral commission said. Zigmantas Balcytis, a social democrat supported by prime minister Algirdas Butkevicius, received 40.1 percent.
The president holds considerable power in Lithuania, appointing government ministers, as well as judges, the head of the central bank and the Lithuanian member of the European Commission - though needing the approval of parliament or the prime minister for most appointments.

Do you have a metal roof that is corroding? Then remove that rust with an angle grinder! Have an old door that is in desperate need of a new coat of paint? Strip off the old paint easily - with an angle grinder! Need to cut through concrete? Use an angle grinder!
The angle grinder is a useful, versatile hand held power tool. This buyers guide gives some advice on how to use an angle grinder and features you should look out for if you want to buy a new angle grinder.
What Should You Use an Angle Grinder For?
By fitting different attachments or wheels, an angle grinder can be used to cut, sand, polish and sharpen various materials.
Cutting - Various cutting discs can be used with angle grinders making them useful for cutting through stone, metal or concrete. Diamond tipped edges are the strongest of discs. Ideal users would be General Contractors, Auto-body repair and Plumbers.
Sanding - With a sanding pad attached, an angle grinder can become a very effective sanding machine on wood materials (handy for stripping old paint). The best results are achieved by using the proper grit abrasive. As a rule, you will want to start with more coarse grinding or sanding grits for removing large defects or rough spots, then work through finer grits until you achieve the smoothness and quality you want. However, for items that require a delicate touch, you should use an angle grinder with a variable speed control. Although a grinder is not considered a "woodworking" tool, that's not to say it cannot perform woodworking tasks.
Polishing - With the right disc fitted, angle grinders can be used to buff up metal. You can fit your angle grinder with wire brushes for rust and corrosion removal. Auto-Body Repair shops and Metal Fabrication Shops uses grinders daily.
Sharpening - Many people use their angle grinder to sharpen old tools and lawnmower blades. However, this can be tricky so we recommend you leave sharpening to the experts.
Grinding - The most common task for this tool is grinding metal weld seams to a smooth flat seamless finish. Anyone who uses a welder will commonly have a small angle grinder in their tool arsenal with a wide array of different grinding wheels. You can also grind down concrete and stone, so this tool fits nicely in a Stone Masons tool bag as well.
Key Features to Look For when Purchasing an Angle Grinder
No Load Speed - The speed the disc rotates at before cutting starts. Most manufacturers list their speed ratings based off of no-load pressure. Some of the benefits of using slow speed grinders (as compared to those with faster speeds) is that they are generally quieter to operate than regular grinders. Also, you don't produce as much heat (that can be destructive to tools) with the slow speed grinders. One drawback of using slow speed grinders is that many people believe they don't provide enough heat compared with the higher speed grinders. If you are concerned about this, you should consider getting a variable control grinder so you can adjust the level of heat you're getting. Different materials require different speeds for optimal results. As a general rule, use low settings of around 2000 RMP for burnishing metals and high speeds in the region of 5000 to 7000 for cutting hard materials.
Brakes - Stops grinding wheel under 2 seconds.
Safety Clutch - Improves safety and handling while protecting from tool kick back.
Soft Start - This is a feature of most larger machines, it makes the machine easier to handle on start up. This also prevents the tool from wrenching or twisting on start up. Note, that you must wait for the motor to obtain full speed before applying the disc to the work.
Voltage - 240volt, 110volt or 18volt re-chargeable, a cordless tool offers more flexibility. The higher the Cordless Voltage, the more powerfull the grinder.
Wattage - Larger discs require more power.
Spindle Lock - Makes disc and accessory changes quicker and easier.
Disc Size - The most common disc sizes available are 4-1/2 inch (115mm), 5 inch (125mm) 6 inch (150mm), 7 inch (180mm), 9 inch (230mm). Larger Sizes are better for larger surfaces and bigger depth of cuts. Small angle grinders range from 4-1/2 to 6-in, while large angle grinders are 7 to 9-in
Adjustable Guard - This will protect you from sparks and debris and can be moved to suit the current job.
Adjustable Side Handle - This makes the machine useable either right or left handed. The more positions available, the more versatile the machine is.
Anti-Vibration Handle - This will make the machine more comfortable to use over extended periods and to help reduce fatigue and enhance control and maneuverability.
Wheel Types and Uses
