CE Marked Doorsets – Business as usual for Door Assemblies in 2014
January 7, 2014 by Editor · Comments Off on CE Marked Doorsets – Business as usual for Door Assemblies in 2014
Door assemblies are still legal after 1 July 2013. And they will stay legal for the foreseeable future. Door assemblies are NOT doorsets – so CE marking doesn't apply to them.
You can't tell the difference between doorsets and door assemblies just by looking at them. It's how they're supplied that matters. If it all comes from one source – usually a doorset manufacturer – then it's a doorset. If various trades supply individual parts or components for assembly on site, then it's a door assembly. Traditionally, the majority of timber doors in the UK have been supplied as door assemblies, with their hardware coming from an architectural ironmonger who has prepared and/or priced a schedule of ironmongery. Steel and aluminium doors have traditionally been supplied as doorsets, though sometimes the ironmonger gets to supply cylinders which are under MK, and perhaps operating furniture such as levers or pull handles, to match the rest of the project. In future, any doorset which falls under the scope of a harmonised standard will be supplied complete by the manufacturer, and will be CE marked by them. Door assemblies do not fall under the scope of any doorset standard – they can't, they're door assemblies. It will remain legal to supply door assemblies in the UK.

Easy Routines To Keep You Healthy, White TeethPublished:July 1st, 2010
There are some easy routines that can ensure you keep healthy, white teeth without too much effort.
First, you should brush your teeth three times each day, once in the morning, once after lunch and before you go to sleep. This does not mean that it is not helpful to also brush after every meal or whenever you eat something.
Brushing should take a minimum of three minutes and if you use an electric toothbrush it is easier to track the time you spend on brushing.
If you use toothpaste that has whitener in it, your teeth will preserve their white colour more easily. A good toothpaste also has fluoride and baking soda as ingredients that can help your teeth stay white and healthy.
Flossing also helps your teeth and gums and protects them from diseases. Mouthwash is also recommended as part of your brushing and flossing routine. Flossing and using mouthwash help by removing any food particles that are still in the mouth after brushing.
Try to stay away from snacks, especially if they contain sugar. Sugar is not what causes tooth decay, but the time sugar stays in the mouth is what can cause problems. This is also true for other foods. Carrots and apples, on the other hand are snacks that can help you keep strong and healthy teeth. Smoking is also harmful for your white teeth and the same is true for coffee or black tea.
Proper care of your white teeth will prevent discoloration and weakening of the enamel of your teeth. By brushing and flossing regularly, bacteria will not build up in the mouth.

Red Ball
The Red Ball is for beginners. The red ball is larger than a yellow ball and doesn't bounce as high (25% compression), making it a breeze for even the youngest players to hit it comfortably, giving the children a greater chance of success. Group coaching on court will provide the children with a basic introduction to tennis-designed to build self confidence and gross motor skills in a fun environment.
Orange Ball
After mastering the Red Ball, children move on to the Orange Ball where the ball bounces a little higher (50 per cent compression). This will help build on gross motor skills and self confidence. Group coaching if focused on technique and developing stroke.
Green Ball
For children of 9+ the group coaching sessions uses a green ball (75% compression) which allows young players to focus on perfecting their court technique and strokes.
The club also runs regular classes during school term.

Which is the worst corporate lobby group? You decide who has done most to disrupt climate talks in Copenhagen!
Six campaign groups have launched The Angry Mermaid Award to find the company who has done most to disrupt the climate talks in Copenhagen.
They hope the poll will help find which company or lobby group is doing the most to sabotage effective action on climate change. They want people to recognise those who promote and profit from climate change and what they call the 'perverse role of corporate lobbyists'.
Activists say that while "people, organisations and social movements around the world are calling for strong action to prevent climate change and ensure climate justice, big business has been lobbying to block effective action to tackle the problem."
The nominations for the award include:
The American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCCE) for being embroiled in a fake lobbying scandal against the US Climate Bill and for trying to hide the extent of its lobbying activities.
The European Chemical Industry Council (CEFIC) that successfully lobbying for free allowances under the EU Emissions Trading Scheme and for pushing to weaken EU and international climate policies.
Royal Dutch Shell for actively investing in the energy-intensive tar sands, at the same time as pushing unproven Carbon, Capture and Storage (CCS) technology as a solution to climate change, whilst undermining initiatives to reduce CO2 emissions.
Others nominees include the American Petroleum Institute (API),International Air Transport Association (IATA), International Emissions Trading Association (IETA), Monsanto and the Round Table on Responsible Soy (RTRS) and Sasol.
The online poll is organised by Attac Denmark, Corporate Europe Observatory, Focus on the Global South, Friends of the Earth International Oilchange, International and Spinwatch.
You can read more and cast you vote online at www.angrymermaid.org
Voting closes on Sunday 13 December 2009 and the winner of the Angry Mermaid Award will be announced in Copenhagen on Tuesday 15 December 2009.

A few weeks back, we happened to run into Surveen Chawla at the Bengaluru International Airport. For those who don't know her, she played the role of Kaajjal in the eponymous serial on Sony Entertainment Television. Recently, she also participated in Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena with S. Sreesanth on Colors.
We were just roaming around at the airport when we saw a Muslim family clicking pictures with her. I couldn't recognize her immediately. I pointed out to my wife that she looked very pretty and my wife recognized her but didn't remember her name. Then I took a more careful look and realised she was Surveen Chawla!
Here's the photo we clicked with her. She was very nice to us and obliging when we asked for a snap.
I've heard that she is going to star in a couple of Kannada movies opposite Shivrajkumar. I guess that's the reason she was in Bangalore. We wish her all the best for her career and hope she has many happy days ahead!

The struggle between long-term conservation versus short-term economics has been picking up in intensity, and this time it appears that one of Armenia's most famous waterfalls is about to be sacrificed according to this article.
I'm sure we can expect more battles like this around the world as energy demands continue to accelerate while the planet's natural resources continue to dwindle.

An old man was sitting on the balcony of his house at night under the full moon; the sea on one side and greater Beirut on the other. The composer Salvador Arnita was retiring as chair of the American University of Beirut's music department. A Palestinian artist and musician who lived far from his beloved city, Jerusalem, and struggled greatly to put Palestinian classical music onto the international scene, the "Brahms of Palestine" (in the words of the Bethlehem Academy of Music) whispered quietly and dejectedly: "I still have so many compositions that I have not been able to realize: no orchestra, no financial support, and no state!"
Born in 1914 in Jerusalem, Arnita started playing the church organ at the age of eleven. He was strongly encouraged by the legendary Augustine Lama, who taught him for a brief period of time. At age sixteen, he was sent to Alexandria, Egypt, where he worked as church organist at St. Catherine's Cathedral and became conductor of its choir in 1931. In 1932, Arnita was granted a scholarship to study music at the Academy of Santa Cecilia in Rome, where he studied composition with Professor Alfredo Casella and organ with Professor Fernando Germani, the Vatican organist. The three years he spent in Rome were the supreme learning period of his life; here, Salvador Arnita the composer was born. In 1935, he took up studies for one year with Sir Landen Roland at Guild Hall College in London, teaching as well.
In 1936, Arnita returned to Jerusalem and was appointed music director of the YMCA, a post he held until 1948. Beginning in 1938, he was also engaged as a teacher: at Birzeit College near Ramallah until 1941, and at the Jerusalem Conservatory until 1947. From 1941 until 1947, he served as director of the Jerusalem Radio Orchestra. Arnita composed his early works during this period, mostly orchestral pieces that included a few choral works and chamber music. He was among the pioneers in classical music composition in Palestine, working creatively in a society that barely knew or cherished this style of music. His preferred style was romanticism; its philosophy and sound were closest to his heart.
When tragedy struck in 1948, Arnita fled to Lebanon, moving to the diaspora, as did many of his people. Similar to Vienna during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, Beirut became the Mecca not only for musicians but also for culturists, artists, and thinkers of the Arab world, especially Palestine. In 1949, Arnita settled in Beirut and joined the music department at the American University of Beirut (AUB), where he stayed until he retired in 1980. During these 30 years, he taught several young pianists and composed most of his works, also rewriting many of his earlier compositions. Salvador Arnita died in 1984 in Amman, Jordan.
Arnita toured many countries and performed in more than 100 concerts, either as a solo musician or as an orchestra conductor. He conducted the Berlin Symphony Orchestra, the Pittsburgh Orchestra, the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the orchestra at Tanglewood, among others. Arnita performed as piano or organ soloist with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Sir Henry Wood; the Rome Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Maestro Molinari; and the Boston Symphony under Charles Munch. His playing of the carillon (an instrument made of chimes) at Jerusalem's Bell Tower on Sundays rang out over the city as a special treat. He frequently performed at Harvard University and MIT as well as in a number of European cities. Among the prizes and honors that Arnita obtained is one granted by King Leopold of Belgium.
Arnita's works have been performed throughout the world, including in Australia, the United States, Germany, Poland, Austria, and France. Among his compositions are three symphonies, four concertos (one each for piano, organ, flute, and viola), two suites for orchestra, two piano sonatas, ten preludes, four preludes and fugues for organ, two string quartets, four sonatas for organ, and a "refugee cantata" for baritone solo, choir, and orchestra, which was based on Mahmoud Darwish's famous poem "Sajjil Ana Arabi" ("Identity Card"). It earned great admiration not only because of its famous libretto and description of the plight of Palestinian refugees, but also because of its superbly dramatic music: In a passionate aria the choir and orchestra must struggle breathlessly to keep up with the themes of the solo baritone. Arnita's compositional mastery is well exposed also in "The Winter Night Was Dark and Still: A Christmas Carol," a chorale for organ, strings, choir, and two solo voices.
Arnita and his wife Yusra jointly composed an album for children titled Shadi and Shadiyah. It is important to note that Yusra was a remarkable woman. Daughter of the well-known 'oud player and chronicler Wasif Jawhariyyeh, she was highly educated. She taught musicology at the AUB and wrote songs; her keen interest in Palestinian heritage and culture led her to write a number of books. Yusra was honored several times by Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat and other Arab leaders.
Last May, during a conference I was attending in Beirut, I dropped by the AUB music department. When I began to speak to the chair of the department about my interest in the works of Maestro Arnita, a spark of excitement lit his eyes, and he said, "I knew him, I knew him, he was my great friend." On a personal note, I would like to add: God bless your memory, Salvador! You are our great friend, and we will work to make many people, not only Palestinians, understand your vision for refined music compositions in our tradition.

Jet Blue is running one of their crazy specials – flights on Leap Day 2/29 for $29!
Flights must be booked today. I saw availability to many places from NYC – including a possibility of flying to San Francisco early in the day, and taking a red-eye home that night. I also saw a lot of one way possibilities – meaning you could book a cheap flight one way over the weekend, then come home for 29 bucks.
Unfortunately, when I started excitedly looking for flights, it dawned on me: I can't go, I have an office job.
But, I love vicarious thrills, so I thought I'd share this with you – These flights are going really fast so hurry up and book if you find something that works for you.
Here is the Jet Blue link for the sale.
Here's the blog post by Miles to Memories for more detail.

Events Calendar
Do you fancy a weekend cruise up the coast in company with other PMSC Members and a night in the beautiful river Deben?
Whether you are a Deben veteran or a first timer 'over the bar', it is a short but very satisfying cruise, with beautiful scenery, excellent scope for birdwatching, and the option of a meal on Saturday night at the picturesque Ramsholt Arms pub.
Not got a boat? Time then to chat up friends who have and get them to invite you aboard!
On previous PMSC cruises Members and guests have enjoyed excellent meals at this very special riverside location – an opportunity not to be missed!
As always all skippers are of course responsible for their own navigation and safety of their vessel and crew but the following information may be useful:-
The proposed itinerary (weather permitting) is:- Saturday 18th August (HW Harwich 1737 BST) – depart the Orwell and 'push the tide' up the coast in time to cross the Deben bar before HW and carry the flood up to Ramsholt, with time to relax before going ashore by dinghy for a group dinner at the Ramsholt Arms.
Prior arrangements will be made with the Harbourmaster for moorings to be available including overnight.
Sunday 19th August (HW Harwich 1832 BST) – depart Ramsholt in time to cross the Deben bar by HW-2 and carry the flood down the coast and into the Orwell, arriving Pin Mill around HW.
Those keen to avoid pushing the tide to the mouth of the river may opt to depart Ramsholt before LW and await the flood at Felixstowe Ferry where there are usually plenty of vacant moorings for a short stay to await the tide.
The bar across the entrance to the River Deben bar changes every year – latest pilotage information can be found at http://www.eastcoastpilot.com/downloads.html

When you've got a 6 pack of boys, everyday is a PARTY! How, you ask, do I manage to stay so sane? That, my friends, is only an illusion......
It's potty time
Now that the holiday craze is over, I've been really concentrating on potty training with Brennen. He's SO smart so it's been pretty easy so far. I find that it's far easier if I stay home most of the day while doing this. He's been using the toilet everyday and either running naked or wearing his undies. (He prefers naked) His undies are a bit big on him as he is tiny and still wearing 18-24 mos clothes. The smallest undies I've found are for size 2T-3T. So he's a bit saggy. Yesterday, for the first time, he actually told me several times that he had to go to the bathroom! Of course he likes to do this every 5-10 minutes but he goes a little bit every time! I'm so proud of him. I am sad though, because my baby is getting too big, too fast and Jared is still against having one more. So, mixed feelings here....BUT, he's got to grow up sometime. Hopefully his interest will continue and we can save a few bucks with not having to buy diapers or pull ups anymore.

Go Brennen!
I sure hope Sadie is easy to potty train. I am SO ready to be done with diapers.

Whoo-hoo! While it is hard to let go of the "baby", a potty trained boy is sooo much nicer! Now you just have to make sure he learns how to aim! Mine are 7 and 9 and still can't seem to consistently hit the bowl. :(

LAS VEGAS — NaughtyTweet.com introduced its pinboard-like "Naughty Tweet Media Wall" interface today.
"With the Adult Industry tweeting some 50,000 pictures and videos a month, it was clear we needed to develop some new interfaces to showcase this amazing content," Naughty Tweet Network CEO Pete Housley said.
He added, "NaughtyTweet.com is a reimagining of the entire social media concept focusing on the media rather than the message; we call it a 'Social Media Wall.' The consumers of adult material are by nature, visual, developing this interface was just as natural and we expect this site to become one of our most trafficked and loved."
The company said the Naughty Tweet Network of sites follow and aggregate more than 4,500 adult industry performers daily, who send out more than 35,000 tweets and in excess of 1,500 photos and videos.
Its new offering is designed to service the combined porn star following of more than 25 million fans.
NaughtyTweet.com operates on a proprietary software application that leverages the application programming interfaces of major names in media sharing applications including Twitter, Instagram, TwitPic, Tumblr, and more. The website gives users access to live photo and video stream in multiple categories.
By leveraging tools like Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, and Google +, users are able to comment as well as share media with their own social circles
"What we didn't expect is how addictive this product would be; even for me… During testing I found myself refreshing the page frequently to see what surprise was next," said webmaster Joe Cabe.
He added, "What seemed like a simple idea is actually rather complex in practice as we aggregate data, photos and videos from more than 15 different sources. It's also the first time we've been able to integrate our products with the 'Big 3' in social media meaning the traffic and exposure will be our most extensive to date."
The developers said said the interface has been designed using the "Mason Wall" style, popularized by products like Pinterest. However, the company noted that it is not a Pinterest clone, and in fact its feature set and code base are unique, so there is no interface to post media directly.
The website is available to users at no cost.
Some advertising and sponsorship opportunities are also available.

7 bedroom detached house for saleThe Lizard

Property Description
Key features
Full description
Large and elegant detached Victorian family home in need of modernisation and a series of works. Stunning panoramic and sea views situated in England's most southerly village. Adaptable three storey accommodation includes a possible seven bedrooms, two bathrooms (WC), two en-suites, three reception rooms and a near 40' sun room. A newly fitted kitchen/breakfast room with walk-in larder plus utility room will please most cooks whilst generous gardens will keep those with green fingers busy. On a quiet no through lane and just a short walk to the village centre, coves and beaches.
The Location - The Lizard Peninsula is known for its geology and rare plants, within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Lizard village itself is mainland Britain's most southerly village and walkers from all over the world come to enjoy the rugged cliffs where seals are regularly spotted enjoying the sun. A few hundred yards from Rocklands are lots of shops, post office, cafes, fish and chip shop and public houses. The Lizard Lighthouse was built at Lizard Point in 1752 and the RNLI operates The Lizard lifeboat station that has just a £11 million upgrade and on Tuesday evenings they carry out practice launches that are a real spectacle to see. There is a very good school nearby educating those from 2 - 11 years. For older children, schools at Mullion (5 miles) and Helston (11 miles) are a short bus journey and to finish their education, Exeter University has a campus at Tremough (19 miles) near Penryn. The county capital and hospital are at Truro which is just 27 miles away (there is a main line train straight to London from Truro).
The Property - A substantial and elegant detached Victorian house that once restored will be a special landmark home. Standing in its own gardens with stunning sea views. With a possible seven bedrooms plus two bathrooms, 2 en-suite shower rooms and two separate WC, this house will make a lovely stylish family home or even a 'work from home' business opportunity (guest house). To the front of the property is a forty foot long sun room that faces South and leads to a comfortable living room and a library.

Thankfully and unusually throughout the property there is a host of original features that have survived the years of modernisation and decoration, these include tiled fireplaces, tessellated floors, stripped floorboards throughout and stained glass windows. An oil fired boiler supplies hot water and heating via radiators in most rooms, while outside there is generous size garden to the rear and a smaller garden to the front that again has those sea views.

Joanne Conroy, MD, named CEO and president of Dartmouth-Hitchcock
Conroy, current CEO of Lahey Hospital in Massachusetts, replaces James Weinstein, who steps down June 30.
Joanne Mather Conroy, MD, currently CEO of Lahey Hospital and Medical Center, has been selected as CEO and president of Dartmouth-Hitchcock and Dartmouth-Hitchcock Health in New Hampshire, replacing James N. Weinstein, MD, who steps down as CEO and president on June 30.
Conroy will assume her role on August 7.
Weinstein called Conroy "a fantastic choice" for Dartmouth-Hitchcock who will carry forward the themes of population health and value-based care in new payment models.
The Board of Trustees chose Conroy from among dozens of highly qualified applicants from across the nation, according to Trustee William Conaty, co-chair of the Search Committee.
"From this extraordinary group, Dr. Conroy quickly rose to the top," he said.
The appointment was made by a unanimous vote of the board at a special meeting on June 14, according to Board of Trustees Chair Anne-Lee Verville.
Verville said the board appreciated Conroy's experience at Lahey working to develop and drive an effective clinical integration strategy, expand research and educational programs and strengthen a culture of philanthropy.
[Also: After trying for years, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Lahey Health make merger plans official]
"In Dr. Conroy, the trustees believe we have found an exceptional person to lead the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Health system," Verville said. "The search committee and the board were particularly impressed by Dr. Conroy's collaborative approach, communication skills, and demonstrated ability to think and work strategically to achieve key goals."
Conroy is a 1977 graduate of Dartmouth College.
"Coming back to New Hampshire is like a homecoming for me," Conroy said by statement. "It will be wonderful to be back in a place I love, but more wonderful still to have the privilege of serving an organization I've long admired as a leader in patient-centered care and the evolution of care delivery."
[Also: Dartmouth-Hitchcock to lay off 84 employees, cites heavy losses, low Medicaid reimbursement]
Lahey Hospital and Medical Center is a 343-bed hospital serving more than 1.2 million patients annually. It is the flagship center for the Lahey Health System, as well as teaching and partner research location for Tufts University School of Medicine.
Conroy previously held leadership positions at the Medical University of South Carolina College of Medicine, Atlantic Health System, and the Association of American Medical Colleges.
After graduating with a BA in Chemistry from Dartmouth, Conroy received her medical degree from the Medical University of South Carolina.
Between July 1 and August 6, Edward Merrens, MD, chief clinical officer, and Stephen J. LeBlanc, chief administrative officer, will hold the titles of co-interim CEO and president, reporting to the Board of Trustees.
[Also: Dartmouth-Hitchcock names Daniel Jantzen new CFO as Robin Kilfeather-Mackey steps down]
"Dartmouth-Hitchcock combines the best of medical skill, technology, teaching, and research for the benefit of patients and families, and at the same time, never stops in its quest for improvement," Conroy said. "I look forward to being part of that passionate quest in partnership with the patients of the region."

Santa's Fruitcake
>> Dec 17, 2011
A Christmas fruitcake
It's not complicated, not too sweet or oily but flavourful and colourful. Don't worry if you don't have rum, I used brandy here.

- Pre-heat oven to 150C

- Add in eggs one at a time, till well mixed
- Add in (B), mixed well
- Add in (C ), mixed well
- Pour into pan and bake at 150C for 3 hours or until cake skewer comes out clean. If you see the top browning too quickly, you may cover the top of the pan with a layer of baking paper
- Remove from oven and let it rest for 1 day
- Sprinkle with 6-7 tbsp of brandy all over the cake
- Wrap with foil and tie well ...to keep late night fridge raiders away! Hehehe :-D
- 2 weeks before Christmas, open up and sprinkle another 4-5 tbsp of brandy, wrap and tie well again
- Serve lightly dusted with confectionery sugar
