OPD Valves
to Carry a Handgun
This information is a combination of Web Site research, Testing different POL (propane out let) fittings with flow measuring equipment, and interviews with various people in the propane service and sales in my area.
If this is not the Information you are looking for check out these sites, They are Commercial sites that also offer very good explanations of Propane , and Propane Products. i highly recommend these two sites.
The OPD valve has been blamed for many problems relating to propane appliance malfunctions. I have mistakenly done this on numerous occasions.
Keep in mind if a cylinder is mounted in a tilted position as seen on recreational vehicles the only way of safely filling these systems is using an 80% valve. Do not assume an attendant at a fill station will understand this. The attendant could overfill your system thinking it will shut off when filled! monitor what is being done! It could be your vacation going up in smoke! or worse
Pressure Relief Valve. Prevents the contents of the cylinder from exceeding 250psig. And is unchanged from the old style valves.

I alluded to the cylinder outlet fitting and the main shut off valve being the cause of most problem with propane devices. This chapter will explain the differences in P.O.L. fittings and what we should expect of them.
In the above chapter there was discussion on a function called "Excess Flow".
We didnt go to far into it as this is more commonly a function of the POL fitting(s).
What is excess flow,
Any marked increase in the normal flow of a liquid or gas can be termed Excess, and is usually the result of a malfunction or failure of a delivery component. An example of a malfunction could be a free flow regulator.
An example of a component failure could be a broken hose or fitting.
When something like that happens an excess (much more) flow of vapor would be discharged into the surrounding air, thereby setting up a very unsafe condition.
PLO fitting have been available for a long time that would sense this increase flow, and immediately shut down the discharge of Gas Vapor.
Some of the early fitting set up this way would have to be manually reset after being activated, after the malfunction was corrected. The ones we see today are automatically reset by the use of a very small orifice in the valve witch is an integral part of the fitting.
A valve like this is also used in the Hydraulic industry and is called a "Velocity Fuse".
We will find Excess Flow fitting on most new Grills and Stoves that are used in recreation. They will be sized to meet this application. One for a small propane barbecue grill might be rated for 70,000btu, and that would mean enough vapor to accomplish this could leak and the device most likely wouldnt know the difference, But if the appliance (Grill) is using most of this establish flow, and a leak occurred causing flow in excess of what would be consumed at 70,000btu there would be an imbalance in the sensor and the valve would close. The excess flow valve would stay closed until the appliance valve(s) are closed and enough time has elapsed for the vapor passing through the small orifice in the excess valve bring the pressure up to match the pressure on the cylinder side of the excess flow valve, or the malfunction corrected.
So if we have a setup like this,
1. Cylinder, 2. Excess flow P.O.L. fitting, 3. Regulator, 4. Delivery hose, 5. Appliance. We may never have a problem unless the pressure regulators free flows. This is a rare event, that could be caused by a fire or icing of the regulator, or its vent, but may not sense a failed delivery hose. The excess flow valve would have to be very closely matched to sense a leak downstream of a regulator, as a regulator is in its design a flow control devise on its own.
This is the setup that will cause us the most problem when we dont understand what is happening.
1. Cylinder, 2. Excess flow POL fitting, 3. Delivery Hose (this was #4 in other setup), 4. Regulator 5. Appliance.
With this arrangement, the hose and regulator are in a different orientation and the length of the hose and the speed of opening the cylinder valve would dictate how problematic this could be.
I use this arrangement on 2 different appliances, 1st is a Weber IQ portable Gas grill where I have a 20 lbs cylinder adapted, instead of using disposable cylinders (1lbs size), The 2nd is a Mr. Heater portable "Buddy" heater that I use in my fish house and I also have this adapted to a 20 lbs cylinder in favor of the 1 lbs throw away. Both of these adapters were purchased as per the manufacture recommendations.
This problem has such a simple solution that its almost nauseating, but if one isnt aware of what is happening it could be terribly frustrating.
When the cylinder valve is opened, gas vapor is delivered through the excess flow valve, but because the delivery hose is empty, and depending on its length, an imbalance occurs each time this arrangement is assembled. Now if we were to just leave this device alone for a minuet, (unless there was a leak and this could just be a burner valve opened ever so slightly), the automatic reset function of the excess flow valve would reopen the valve. But what happens is when we dont understand the mechanics of this we turn on our tank, and then open the burner valve and try and light the burner. By doing this we prevent the auto reset from functioning.
This can be remedied by simply waiting a short time after turning on the cylinder with the burner valve(s) in the off position until the delivery hose is charged by the orifice to match the cylinder side. And if your hearing is good one can easily hear the click of the excess flow valve upon closing and again upon opening.
Or, one could very slowly, open the cylinder valve. This is something that you will have to experiment with on your system and isnt the best way to overcome this problem. The reason being, when you connect everything together, then make sure the burner valve(s) are off, and then open the cylinder valve we then know that it will take up to 1 minuet to reset the excess flow valve, and if this then doesnt happen we most likely have a leak.
But,(dont we love ifs and buts)(and if they were mints and nuts we could have a party). (In loving remembrance of Joseph Roots, RIP Joe)
BUT, if we elect to open our cylinder valve very slowly, thereby filling the delivery hose and as long as the leak wasnt in excess of our excess flow valve, we could then light our burner with a relatively large gas vapor leak.
Remember, the excess flow valve isnt all that smart. It can only see an imbalance of pressure on each side of it to activate. It doesnt know why that is happening. That is our job.
In Conclusion,
The excess flow valve (velocity fuse) is a good thing to have in your system, but we need to understand how it works. We will see more problems with the excess flow POL fittings when temps are high and tanks(cylinders are full, and valves are turned on too fast. We may get away with faster valve turning in cold seasons where it will cause trouble in the hot seasons.
I have purchases 2 of these OEM conversion kits for the 2 above described appliance and I truly did not understand what they did, nor could I find any information on the internet to explain what they are and how they work in the way we do things in our day to day life.
I hope this will be of benefit to anyone who reads it, and if you are like me, you also may feel a tad foolish because its such an easy problem to over come.
Also keep in mind that every time we change the cylinder we must check for leaks. This is usually done with a soapy water solution like bubble soap. There are products available with a ethylene glycol base for cold weather use, or the high price electronic units the gas company might use. Just don't use a bic!
I will again remind everyone again that I am not an engineer, and this information was determined by un-scientific methods. Proceed with utmost caution at your own risk.

1 killed in head-on crash in Winston-Salem
1 killed in head-on crash in Winston-Salem
A woman was killed in a head-on crash in Winston-Salem Thursday morning.
Amy Nicole Dickerson, 37, of Winston-Salem, died at the scene of the crash around 7:40 a.m. in the 3000 block of Old Salisbury Road near Ridgemeadow Drive. No other injuries were reported.
Dickerson was driving a Volkswagen car north on Old Salisbury Road when a southbound Ford van crossed the center line and hit the Volkswagen head on, Winston-Salem police said. Both vehicles then caught on fire.
Police have released no other information, saying their investigation continues.
This was the city's 18th traffic death in 2015. There were 11 traffic-related deaths in Winston-Salem by this time last year.

Following the previous traditions, from Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini to Galaxy S4 Mini, Samsung has been releasing a mini version of its Flagship device since then. Now, it is time for us to see Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini and as we have also seen in the past that whenever after the release of leaked photos of any flagship device, it is not long enough for it to be available in the market. And it looks like the same case has happened with Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini, because SamMobile has gotten the leaked images of Galaxy S5 Mini, obviously the source is not official, so you only have to believe that it is true.
We have already seen two other variants of Samsung Galaxy S5, namely Galaxy S5 Active and Galaxy K Zoom and they did the same thing with Galaxy S4 as mentioned above, so it is quite obvious that they will do the same thing with Galaxy S5. The leaked pictures suggest that the Galaxy S5 Mini looks same like its senior device, rounded corners are with perforated back and both the Heart Beat Sensors and Finger Print sensors are present.
As far as the Specs are concern, 1.4GHz Quad Core Exynos 3 Processor with Mali 400 GPU and 1.5GB of RAM, 720p 4.5-inch display, 16GB built-in storage with 8MP rear and 2.1MP front camera, running Android 4.4.2 Kit-Kat out of the box, with most of the features from Galaxy S5 including Private Mode, Ultra Power Saving mode and Kids Mode.

"Bulls Eye"
Rodeo Bull
This handsome rodeo bull is giving you the eye. He has a peaceful yet no-nonsense look to him.
I loved creating this bull painting as I yet again let my wild side free rein with color and mark making. Plus I thoroughly enjoy making cow art.
The original cow painting was a mixed media done on suede board. This image was created for the Rolfe Rodeo to be featured as the design on their fund raising t-shirt sales.
Vibrantly colored this dynamic rodeo bull print will surely make a statement wherever it is hung.

Common Types of Heating Repairs
As a homeowner, it probably comes as no surprise that one of the things that you will have to address is the need for heating repairs in North Alabama. In fact, more than likely you will need this type of service more than once or twice during your time as a homeowner. The best way to be prepared for this is to at least have an idea of what type of repairs you may end up needing.
This will enable you to be a wise homeowner and a savvy consumer. While you won't know as much as the professional you work with, you at least won't be completely in the dark. Of course the industry expert that you work with should also provide you with information you need about the repairs.
What You Have to Know
Some of the most common repairs North Alabama heating contractors take care of every day include:
- Dirty Filters – This is an important one to start with because it is a reminder that this is something that you could actually avoid. Your filters should be changed each month and if they are not this could end up causing a blockage in your system.
- Your heating will actually stop working just because it cannot get enough air flow. Don't end up with costly heating repairs in North Alabama due to an inexpensive item like a filter. Even if you do not want to be bothered changing the filter, call a contractor to take care of this for you so at least it is done.
- Lack of Maintenance – Neglecting to get regular service for your system can also lead to big problem – problems that could be avoided. Get routine heating maintenance work done and address the need for minor repairs as the problem arises. All of this will reduce the likelihood of needing major emergency heating repairs.
- Thermostat Malfunction – The thermostat acts as the brain of your heating and cooling system. So if something is wrong with the thermostat, the rest of the system can't function properly. You may notice the air blowing is not as warm as it should be, frequent cycling or not working at all.
Of course, the specifics vary depending on what type of heating unit you have, such as a furnace, heat pump, or boiler. Be sure to hire a professional for any repairs you may need.
The Name to Trust for Heating Repairs MPE Services
The good news is that you have already found the right team to trust in to get the job done. Here at MPE Services North Alabama, we take this line of work seriously and it shows in the results we get. We offer reliable heating services throughout the area, including prompt heating repairs.
It is as important to us as it is to you to have your heat running properly, if not more so. Get in touch with us today and let's rectify your heating repair needs, promptly and professionally.

The Quality of Our Groundwater
Well study shows arsenic increase in drinking water
An analysis of well water tests by the nonprofit watchdog group Raritan Headwaters has detected a disturbing increase in concentrations of arsenic, a known carcinogen.
Raritan Headwaters (RHA) recently analyzed data from over 30 years of well testing within its 470-square-mile watershed in Hunterdon, Somerset and Morris counties. Among the study's findings was that the percentage of wells with high levels of arsenic rose significantly from 2003 to 2015, the period for which arsenic testing records were available.
"Residents need to know that if they get their drinking water from a well, they should test it to protect their family's health," said Cindy Ehrenclou, executive director of Raritan Headwaters. "Arsenic can be filtered from drinking water, but first you have to know it's there."
Arsenic is a metal that occurs naturally in certain layers of bedrock, especially those found in New Jersey's Piedmont region. It was once used in pesticides, and traces often linger in soils on current and former farm fields. It also is found in wood preservatives.
Under New Jersey standards, a concentration of arsenic exceeding 0.005 milligrams per liter of water (mg/L), or 5 parts per billion, is considered unacceptable. Exposure to arsenic is known to cause liver, kidney, colon and bone cancers, as well as gastrointestinal ailments, diabetes and cardiovascular impacts.
The annual well failure rate for arsenic also showed an increasing trend watershed wide. Over 16 percent of wells tested for arsenic failed to meet the state's drinking water standard.
14,000 Records Analyzed
The increasing concentrations of arsenic were discovered during an analysis of private well tests conducted from the early 1980s through 2015. Dr. Kristi MacDonald, RHA's Director of Science, studied the results of over 14,000 individual tests conducted in 17 municipalities, looking for trends and changes that take place slowly over time.
All of the towns that show increasing arsenic concentrations in well water are located in Hunterdon County. However, well owners throughout the watershed should be aware of the potential hazard in their towns.
"A lot of people in our watershed are not aware that arsenic could be in their drinking water," said Bill Kibler, RHA's policy director. "People tend to assume that because their well water is deep underground, it's safe from contamination. That's not always the case."
Further investigation will be needed to determine why arsenic concentrations are rising, but MacDonald and Kibler believe land disturbance and development may be a factor.
"When we get to the root cause, we could find it's something that humans are doing," MacDonald said.
"Collectively, we as residents of New Jersey need to know why this is happening," added Kibler. "The fact that arsenic is being released from the geology into the water column is not a natural occurrence."
80 Percent of Residents Use Wells
Four out of five residents of the North and South Branch Raritan watershed region – about 320,000 people – obtain their drinking water from the ground through wells.
Well water tests have been offered since the 1970s by the South Branch Watershed Association and Upper Raritan Watershed Association, which merged in 2011 to form Raritan Headwaters. The tests are entirely voluntary and participant information is confidential.
According to MacDonald, there are many groundwater contaminants that can pose public health risks, including coliform bacteria, nitrate, lead, arsenic, radon and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Residents who have their well water tested choose which contaminants to test for.
MacDonald noted that most opt to test only for coliform bacteria and nitrate, with far fewer testing for the full range of potential contaminants.
Unfortunately, she said, 80 percent of watershed residents with private wells have never tested their water. And of those who have, most only tested their well water once – not realizing the need to re-test in subsequent years.
"No law requires that homeowners test their wells except when selling their property to someone else, a requirement to protect the buyer only," noted Dr. Daniel Van Abs, associate research professor for Water, Society and Environment at the Rutgers School of Environmental and Biological Sciences.
'Out of Sight, Out of Mind'
The analysis was peer reviewed by Dr. Richard Lathrop, professor of environmental monitoring and restoration ecology at Rutgers University's School of Environmental and Biological Sciences.
"Groundwater is often out of sight, out of mind. But in many places in New Jersey, especially in rural and even in some suburban areas, groundwater is the principal source of drinking water," said Dr. Lathrop. "Comprehensive analyses of well test data, such as the one undertaken by Dr. MacDonald, are vital to uncover spatial patterns and temporal trends of possible contamination that wouldn't be detected looking at only one well at one date in time."
Dr. Lathrop agreed with Raritan Headwaters that further investigation is needed.
"The results pointing to increasing concentrations of arsenic in groundwater are concerning and should be followed up to determine if the trend is real or some artifact of a change in collection or chemical laboratory procedures," he said. "If real, further work is warranted to investigate potential causal factors and ascertain what the public health implications might be."
Van Abs concurred. "Most of the findings match more recent information from the N.J. Department of Environmental Protection, but for many towns there is a disturbing increase in arsenic, a natural poison," he said. "We need to know whether this increase reflects changes in ground water conditions, and if so, why. The report provides important information that should help New Jersey focus efforts to better understand and protect aquifer quality."
Other Study Results
MacDonald's analysis also looked for trends in other contaminants. Here are the results:
- Concentration of nitrate also increased in the watershed during the period for which records are available, 1984–2015. The percentage of wells that failed for coliform – that is, those that showed presence of coliform bacteria in a water sample – increased slightly in the watershed between 1984 and 2015.
- Concentration of lead did not exhibit any particular trend except in one township in the watershed region, which showed an increase. Radon did not exhibit a trend at the watershed level between 2011 and 2015, the years for which records were available.
How to Get Your Water Tested
Raritan Headwaters provides discounted well testing to residents of its watershed region.
To obtain a sample collecting kit and instructions, call 908-234-1852, ext. 401, or send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Samples are collected at Raritan Headwater's main office at 2121 Larger Cross Road, Bedminster, on Thursdays; and at RHA's satellite office at 124 Main Street, lower level, Flemington, on Mondays and Wednesdays.
The cost for well testing depends on the number of contaminants being tested for. The basic test for coliform bacteria and nitrates is $70, and the test for arsenic is $35. To see the full list of tests and associated costs, go to https://www.raritanheadwaters.org/individual-well-testing/.

Today was the LAST day of work thank goodness! The girl power show went really well. Cecilia was absent unfortunately but the show must go on! I forgot Johanna's tie-dye in the washing machine and felt so bad! Luckily she got to wear Cecilia's shirt and mum dropped hers off during lunch. Those things are huge when you're 9 years old. I remember 9 was the age when I started feeling old. Looking at those kids now they seem so tiny! I can't believe I was so obsessed with boys and clothes at such a young age. I look at some of them wearing halter tops and TINY shorts and wonder what their parents are thinking. And I couldn't help but wonder (SATC reference!!)... are kids growing up too quickly these days?
For example: a little boy named Dylan won the "So you think you can dance" contest yesterday. As a reward his father let him get a new haircut so he can gel it into a Mohawk and highlights. I personally think that's stupid and wouldn't let my kid do that at all. I realize that I'm old fashioned, but I don't think that encouraging my child to be rebellious is anyway to reward them for something good. What happened to simple things? Rod and I of course got into a bit of a debate about it. He was arguing that his parents never let him do anything when he was younger and that's the reason he's so rebellious now. I however disagree. My parents always encouraged me to be who I am while at the same time steering me into the right direction and always providing an example, my moral compass if you wish. I worry every day that my children won't be normal. I wonder if other single 18 year olds do the same?
Speaking of wonderful children however, I babysat for my favorites tonight! Alex and Casey are the sweetest little boys. They were so well behaved and Casey barely cried at all. I love kids who are well behaved and nice to their siblings. I worry sometimes I'm going to be a totally anal mom and really strict, which will probably be the case. It's all for the best though, right?
I also took this really cool test that found my "personal DNA". The description was right on the nail.

My quest to live green and leave a small ecological footprint on this planet has taken a leap forward. I have ordered solar panels for my house that will supply close to 100 percent of my electricity, including charging my electric car.
I went with a company called Solar City who are giving me a great deal on the system. Plus Sony Entertainment where I work has given me a big cash incentive to install the system. In the end I'll break even after just two years, and after they the system will pay me!
It's a 4.8 kW solar system, mounted on the back side of my roof (facing Southwest). The design for the system has already been approved by the city inspectors and the installation will come very soon. This entire process has be easy and smooth. I highly recommend solar to anyone and everyone, especially people in sunny states like Florida and California. The sun is the most powerful energy provider on Earth and we have the technology to tap into it.

It is no secret that Japan's population is declining. According to the Ministry of Labor and Welfare, the birthrate in Japan was 1.37 in 2008, and at this pace, the working population in the year 2050 is estimated to be approximately 44.7 million people, or 21.7 million less than year 2004.
Therefore, many opinion leaders call for fiscal stimulus packages to encourage families to have more children. Yet, even if the birthrate were to double today, this will have no impact to increase the working population of Japan for the next several decades.
Even if Japan were to be successful in increasing the population, we would then face the reality that the ever increasing number of human beings will only increase the strains on the global eco-system. There are no other living organisms on this planet that uses up so much of the precious resources that Mother Nature provides.
Therefore, if we paused, took a deep breath, and looked at the situation, we would realize that Japan's role in this world is to provide the very difficult, yet very meaningful, case study of how a large-scale economic society can sustain itself without having to rely on population growth.
An overseas observer of Japan made the following interesting remarks. "Japan does not need to worry about a dwindling population. Japan was able to achieve its economic miracle, with only half the population. Japan just needs to utilize the other half."
The "other half," of course, means "women."
I found out later in Eiichi Shibusawa's archives that he said the same thing during his time, about one hundred years ago.
"Of course, women are part of society and the foundation of a nation. We should get rid of social baggage of discrimination towards women, give women the same opportunities to attain skill, knowledge and virtue, and also strive to work with one another. Then, we can increase the 25 million working hands in our nation by utilizing the other 25 million."

How To Write A Personal Profile For A CV
Employers expect that at the top of your CV, underneath your key information (name, address etc.), you have a personal profile, sometimes called a personal statement or career summary.
You need to ensure you market your skills effectively in order to encourage the employer to interview you/recruit you and ensuring you have a punchy, concise and well worded personal profile is a surefire way you can get yourself noticed. Here are some tips for writing your personal profile:
1. Your profile is only a summary and shouldn't be any longer than 200 words. Aim to write between 100 and 150 words for optimum effect
2. Tailor your statement according to the job you are applying for – read the person specification and job description and tailor your profile to meet them as appropriate
3. Decide whether you are going to write your CV in the first/ third person, i.e.
Third person: Margaret completed her studies at Durham University in 2012 and was awarded a 2.1 honours degree in Biology…etc
First person: Having completed my studies at Durham University in 2012 and obtaining a 2.1 honours degree in biology, I am looking to…etc
The latter is preferable; after all a CV is a document about You, so it is better to keep it more personal.
4. Don't repeat words such as 'I' too frequently. I am keen to….and I would like to….I am dedicated….
5. Incorporate three core things: Who you are, what you can bring to the role and what you career aims are
6. Keep to the key points, don't ramble and limit unnecessary words. This link is to an American website, but it gives you some idea as to which words and phrases you can omit: www.plainlanguage.gov
7. Don't use a combination of first and third person statements in your profile
8. You can expand more on your skills and experience in your cover letter
9. Humor doesn't work, so don't try and be funny (unless the job calls for it!)
10. Practice reading your profile yourself – does it read well? Ask for a supportive friend or family member to give you feedback

The Wonderful Announciation (CD with carols from Romania with Angela Gheorghiu)
Posted by Dan Romascanu under holidays, music
No Comments
An extra joy in this holiday season is provided by the launching by the label MediaPro Music of a CD with Romanian carols 'Oh, what wonderful news' sung Angela Gheorghiu . It is a musical event of the first importance not only for the Romanian diva but also for the genre of the Christmas songs well represented in music stores and gifts stores from around the world. The event has not gone unnoticed by musical critics, and a very favorable chronic appeared in the prestigious journal of the music lovers 'Gramophone' under the signature of Jon Tolanski -http://www.gramophone.co.uk/classical-music-news/angela-gheorghiu-releases-album-of-romanian-christmas-carols. It's the kind of chronic that can mean the start of a nice international career for the CD. In Romania the already has already achieved Gold Record status just one month after launching, and a festive Christmas Concert Hall Radio and repeated broadcasts at Radio Romania can only enhance its popularity . I had the chance to buy the disc in a bookstore during my visit to Bucharest by the end of November and I added it to that section of my music collection that stands closest to my heart.
The recordings were made in September 2013 in the Radio Hall in Bucharest and at the ISV Studios. Angela Gheorghiu is accompanied by the National Radio Orchestra conducted by Tiberiu Soare, by the Madrigal choir (which this year celebrated 50 years of activity) and by the Accoustic Choir. The musical arrangements of popular songs or belonging to Romanian composers from different periods belong to Dan Dediu, Cristian Constantin, and Lolea Arvinte .

(audio source Gabriela Dragoi)
Buna Dimineata la Mos Ajun (Good Morning on Santa's Eve) and Mos Craciun (Santa) by Dimitrie G. Kiriac open introducing us in the mood for celebration . Trei Crai de la Rasarit (Three Magi from the East) is the first of the six traditional songs, retelling the story of the Annunciation in the beautiful language of the Romanian village. Leganelul lui Iisus (Jesus' Small Craddle) (or Florile Dalbe – White Flowers – by Valentin Teodorian ) and the traditional Inchinarea pastorilor (Sheppphers Worship) develop the same theme. Steaua sus rasare (The Star Rises Above) and O, ce veste minunata (What A Wonderful News) belong to the eternal seasonal repertoire in the Romanian tradition. Another version of Florile Dalbe (White Flowers) composed by Tiberiu Popovici begins with a rhapsodic theme combined with beautiful bell sounds and offers perhaps the most beautiful orchestration of the disc. Nasterea Domnului (Nativity of the Lord) by Paul Constantinescu is the longest and most complex song on the disc , yet fits well with the overall atmosphere. La Vileem colo jos (Down there in Bethlehem ( again a traditional song, but enriched with a sophisticated and interesting orchestration) and the short Colinda (Carol) by Emil Montia conclude the disk in a exuberant atmosphere of celebration.
About Angela Gheorghiu's exceptional vocal qualities I do not need to write. What I notice is the respect and the vibrant emotion with which the artist approaches the traditional repertoire. At no moment we can feel the diva, what we hear is a singer in a great shape who works in perfect harmony with the orchestra and chorus, adding vibrancy and deep feelings to each of the songs. With this CD precious jewels of the Romanian tradition have a chance to enter and take a place of honor alongside other succesesl of the genre, to heat not only the households of the Romanians but enriching also the celebrations of music lovers worldwide.
Good Luck and Happy Holidays!


text: I thought her work was fantastic and after speaking to the artist I found that she uses stitch and found materials to create structures inspired by nature. Very inspiring work and lovely delicate structures. Apologies for the bad quality photographs it was quite late at night and I only had my phone but I think the way the light affects the structures is good and I love the shapes the shadows create.

Talking Comics with Tim | Jeff Parker & Erika Moen
Jeff Parker and Erika Moen had me at "dick and fart". OK, not really. But recently when writer Parker and artist Moen (both members of Periscope Studio) launched the webcomic Bucko (the plot of which can be summed up in two sentences "A chance case of alcohol-fueled diarrhea at his job interview leaves him [Rich "Bucko" Richardson] desperately running for the bathroom where he discovers a brutally murdered body. Now it's up to Bucko to solve this case!" [OK there's more than that, but I love short intros with long sentences…]), I immediately wanted to pester the two creators for an interview. They obliged. And Parker even dropped an f-bomb for free. Read the interview, enjoy the webcomic (which updates Tuesdays and Fridays), tell all your friends. That is all.
Tim O'Shea: How the heck did you two decide that the world needed to combine two genres like "dick and fart jokes" and "murder mystery"?
Jeff Parker: That genre heading was created by Erika. It's not technically accurate, but it gets you in the realm of what BUCKO is. And well, someone may fart at some point I guess.
Erika Moen: Yeah, like Parker says, it's not a literal description of what happens in the comic (well, aside from the "murder" part), but it more captures the feel of the work. I figured it was more effective than something like "a QUIRKY murder mystery!" or "a RIDICULOUS HIPSTER murder mystery" Although, really, "dick'n'fart joke" may not be that inaccurate, as we do have the promise of threesomes ("dick"), there is the case of diarrhea ("fart") and the protagonists certainly think they're solving a "mystery" So, y'know what? I take it back, my tag line is totally accurate.
O'Shea: I'm so glad to see the use of thought balloons in the story, it seems like internal monologues went out of style a few years back. Did either of you hesitate in using them in the story?
Parker: They only went out in superhero comics Tim, which as you know are NOT CHILDISH and are INCREDIBLY SERIOUS. Never mind how everyone is dressed and that they can breathe lasers, we do not have thought balloons! Of course the way everyone still uses them is just to have the narrative in italics in a caption box, and for some reason that's respectable while puffy thought balloons aren't.
Moen: Man, I just do what Parker tells me to do. I will admit that I enjoy drawing thought balloon bubbles.
O'Shea: The webcomic is not black and white–and yet it's not in color either. What was the thinking on the blue tone on the pages?
Moen: One of my many limitations as an artist is that I'm not a great colorist, so if I can get around that hurdle then I absolutely will. When Parker and I started talking about doing Bucko, I was still wrapping up my six-year long strip, DAR!, which was "colored" using three specific tones of grey. I already had a handle on using three tones and blue is pretty so that's what we decided to use. There's also been some really lovely comics out there that are blue toned, so that definitely played a role in influencing that color choice. Comics like Return to Sender by Vera Brosgol, Emitown by Emi Lenox, K.G.B. by Becky Cloonan, etc. ….
O'Shea: OK, name another story that uses "alcohol-fueled diarrhea" as a plot catalyst. Did you consider other reasons to have Rich "Bucko" Richardson stumble upon the dead body?
Parker: Look, you just want me to admit that this plot point occurred to me after a similar mad dash, so I will. I take my inspiration from the world around us. And its bathrooms.
Moen: Well, Parker could have had another, perhaps "more legit", reason for Bucko to discover the body. But let's be honest here, that woulda been hella lame.
O'Shea: Did you two consider working with ACT-I-VATE or some other webcomic site to host Bucko, or did you always plan on hosting it on it's own unique site?
Parker: Fuck no.
Moen: …I…. I believe what Parker is trying to say is that right from the get-go we had envisioned Bucko being its own comic on its own site. It just never even occurred to either of us to seek out somebody else to take care of that for us. We're like Rosie the Riveter, We Can Do It!
O'Shea: How important will social media be in trying to build Bucko's audience, considering that you crosspost the comic at Tumblr, Facebook and Twitter?
Parker: We're thinking of using billboards too. Do those cost money?
Moen: Hm, I dunno, honestly. I guess it's sorta important? I figure, I've already got people following me on Twitter, Tumblr and Facebook, might as well let them know when I've got new things for them to look at. But the majority of our hits, according to our site tracker, are coming from people directly typing in "buckocomic.com" or Googling it. Closely followed by Twitter and Facebook referrals.
O'Shea: Am I right in thinking you two have a blast working together, it seems that way just in the way you are clearly going above and beyond (like these recent reference shots that Erika did for a panel)?
Parker: Of course, Erika is like the Fergie of Periscope, who wouldn't want to work with her? We kind of do put our episodes on like a little play in front of the rest of the studio, thereby getting an idea of what will work. Periscope Studio is live theatre.
Moen: Oh. My. God. For the last time, I am not the Fergie of the goddamn studio, damnit Parker!
O'Shea: Has potential jealousy threatened to derail your collaboration, what jealousy am I talking about?–The fact that Erika got her first boob signing recently–and you Jeff, have not (unless I am mistaken).
Parker: I've signed body parts before, YAWN. Actually it's tricky because skin oils can repel many inks. You've got to have the right kind of marker.
Moen: Translation: YES.
O'Shea: Any parting thoughts?
Moen: Well, not so much a question but a statement: it's been so much fun to draw this comic. I only get to read it one page of script at a time, a couple times a week, so I'm right there with the rest of our audience when it comes to being surprised by each new installment. And I freaking love it.

The initial voracious reading period of maternity leave wore off and now I am back into my regular commute. I try to use my evening commute for journaling or podcast listening, so I end up with my nose in a book far less often than previously. That being said, I've challenged myself (via Goodreads) to read 24 books this year. So far this year, I've read:
We Were Liars by E. Lockheart: I think I read this one in an afternoon, even with babies and toddlers and piles of laundry. It will keep you guessing, even if you probably don't have enough information to really put it all together. I've already said too much.
Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown: This book hit every YES bone in my body. I find my greatest stress and unhappiness comes from being spread across too many projects, priorities, interests and responsibilities. I know this is a work in progress for me and I am sure I will re-read this book a million times. The biggest take aways for me right now where to really rank my priorities and consult that order when I need to make a decision and to really streamline down to a single task at a time. Like I said, work in progress, but I *love* the feeling that comes from identifying what is essential and keeping my energy and focus there.
Garden Spells and First Frost by Sarah Addison Allen: some magical fiction that I had on my list for a long time. Garden Spells was recommended by Meg and Sas during Heart & Hearth. I enjoyed it so much that I went right for the sequel. I have a feeling I'll add some more Sarah Addison Allen to my list. This is the kind of magic I've always been searching for in my life. The kind of magic of sentient trees and magical train platforms that lead to Hogwarts and secret histories and recipes. These were such easy-to-read and feel-good stories with just the right amount of magic and fun. Big fan.
The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins: Recommended on a list for people who loved Gone Girl. The recommendation holds up, but it is good in its own right. It's a book I wish I could have written and the one that will make any story that grows out of someone staring from the train to the houses beyond a cliche. This book makes that tale epic. And exciting. It will also keep you twisting and turning. Read it.
I'm currently reading The Probable Future, The Gift of Change: Spiritual Guidance for Living Your Best Life and The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. What's on your bedside table? What should I add to my list?

We didn't get nearly as far as I would have liked this weekend. I've learned something about myself in the process of this project: I am very good at setting unrealistic goals for myself and other people.
It had been my hope that, by the end of this weekend, we would have a functioning main bathroom. That meant painting the ceiling, the trim, and the wall, twice each. It also meant buying our vanity and sink, painting the vanity, fixing up the plumping and installing it and the toilet. Oh, how I wanted that 'Voila' moment, when I could step back to survey our handiwork and pretend the whole project had been so easy.
In the main room, it had been the Husband's hope that he would have the ceiling and trim finished and at least the first coat of our colours on the walls. At 3 in the afternoon, he stood back and surveyed the ceiling paint. It didn't take long to realize that the damp weather was going to slow us down.
None of our plans found fruition. By the end of Saturday, the ceiling of the bathroom had been painted, but needed a third coat, at least around the edges of the tub ceiling where the durock shimmered through the white just slightly. The bathroom walls needed a second coat. There was no vanity — not even in our possession — and our toilet remained in its box. In the living room/kitchen, the humidity hung heavy and our walls remained white.
Did I mention that we don't work much on the house on Sundays? Especially Sundays that we spend with the youth group of our church?
Our drop clothes remain on the floor, carefully protecting out beautiful bamboo floors, so I was surprised when the Husband, after finishing another coat on all the ceilings and trim last night, announced, "You know, we could be done upstairs in two weeks."
Really? Two weeks? The place still feels so under construction. It's hard to imagine it being finished, let alone so soon. Is this yet another of our unrealistic deadlines?
Perhaps, but consider this: if we finished painting this weekend, I can take off for the weekend with the youth group to the annual convention and leave the Husband behind to install the toilet and get the vanity in place. I will come home to a finished bathroom and a painted living room/kitchen. Then, the following week, we can pick up and get going at assembling our cabinets. By the end of the next week, we can hang them, move our living room furniture up and bring in the people to measure for our countertops.

Therapy docs lacking: expert
Marilyn Mines
Untimely certifications, missed or incorrectly billed Change of Therapy documentation, and lack of documentation supporting a signed physician order for skilled therapy are among the top reasons facilities are battling Medicare claims denials, an expert said in late April.
With Change of Therapy documentation, "if we have a Medicare meeting, and have the MDS and therapy people talk, we can avoid some of these problems," said Marcum Senior Manager of Advisory Services Marilyn Mines, RN, BC, RAC-CT, during LeadingAge Illinois's annual meeting.
Lack of Advance Beneficiary Notices also can cause problems. n

Test Facilities
The anechoic chamber we use is situated on the campus of Loughborough University and is used for all our acoustics and vibration measurements.
The chamber is built as a double-shell system. It is acoustically isolated from the rest of the building and from the adjacent reverberation chamber by an air gap, while being supported on vibration isolation mounts. The inner wall consists of concrete, at least 230mm thick and the outer wall is brickwork. The inner room is mounted on VIBREX OMEGA springs and has a wire mesh floor for bringing in larger test objects.
The walls, ceiling and floor of the Anechoic Chamber are lined with glass-fibre wedges (G+H ASONAD) that provide sound absorption at frequencies above 100 Hz and thus prevent sound reflection from the room boundaries, so that free-field conditions hold.
The Reverberation Chamber is the inner shell of a double-shell building structure that is made of concrete.

Harry Styles went to Cindy Crawford's house to make pizzas with her kids.
The One Direction hunk stopped by the supermodel and her husband Rande Gerber's abode in Malibu, California, to make ham and pineapple pizzas with her son Presley, 14, and 11-year-old daughter Kaia, but his secret stay was revealed when Presley posted a picture of their cooking session on Instagram.
In a message accompanying the image, he wrote: "Thanks for stopping by the house again and helping the boys and I make our pizzas @harrystyles (sic)"
Harry was quick to respond to the teenager and promised to take Cindy's kids surfing next time he was in the area.
He wrote: "Anytime brother.. See you for surfing soon. (sic)"
Presley replied: "Looking forward to it @harrystyles (sic)"
It's not the first time the 19-year-old star has visited Cindy's house to see her children after popping over last month to see Presley after he had his tonsils out.
He wrote on Instagram: "I was chilling at my house after I got my tonsils taken out and my sister had a friend over to hang. This guy knows how I feel."
Last year, Harry and his One Direction bandmates – Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik and Liam Payne – visited Johnny Depp's home recording studio to perform for the actor's 13-year-old daughter Lily-Rose.

Welcome to the Vintage Sailplane Association (VSA) Archives homepage. This site has been created by me, Raul Blacksten, the VSA Archivist. As such, it contains the VSA Archives as well as my interest in the history of soaring. It also reflects a few of my other interests.
This page was developed for Netscape. It is always under construction and everything may not work, but most does. There was on 2 February 1998 and some on 2 November 1998.
The VSA is also dedicated to the preservation of the history of soaring. This is why the VSA Archives exists.

AnonD-9500, 06 Oct 2012only few questions left unanswered: what exactly is the internal storage space available fo... moreHey just wait, xperia miro comes with ICS(4.0.4) out of the box.and 750mb is for apps and games that is sufficient for a smarthphone,2.7gb is for ur media files,512mb ram is descent 4 multitasking,and 800mah processor is enough to handle ics.for ur kind information for installing/upgrading new os,there is dedicated rom in every smartphone,so if u make any upgradation in future,ur internal memory won't occupied,it'll intact.
only few questions left unanswered:
what exactly is the internal storage space available for apps? 2.7gb or 750mb?
cause 750 is quite less contemplating an ICS update.
and is the ram of 512mb and 800mhz processor smooth enough to tackle the update when done?!
also,how decent is the battery backup..?
i'm willing to buy my first smartphone. hope the price reduces a tad bit. seems perfect with the specs :)

Atlanta legend T.I. saw fit to put pen to paper once more, releasing a letter to the United States today, on the day of the Inauguration of the 45th President of The United States. His name slips my mind for some reason. It's clear that current events sparked a lot of thought in regards to why the world is the way it is right now. Read an excerpt from Tip's letter below.
"We can no longer afford to be entertained beyond the point of accountability. We can't keep selling each other out and be willing to do anything to be seen, to be famous or to be rich.
Our obsession with material things and lack of self-worth is evident in our need for an abundance of momentary luxuries and must-have amenities that have no true value for real, man. And I mean, we do it just to impress people that could care less if your children or your children's children have anything left to show for your life after you gone. You see somewhere along the way, we've allowed the pursuit of fame and things to blind us to the issues that prevent us from moving upward. So, we cannot continue to get caught up in having material abundance and yet be fundamentally and spiritually broke.
Every one of us must do something to contribute to transforming our community for the better. We have been underserved, underprivileged and unfortunate for far too long. There are no more excuses. It's not enough to have limited progress and allow our expectations and sense of purpose to evaporate. So, if that means we must sacrifice some nights at the club and give up buying the latest designer handbags and sneakers…well then damn, so be it. I can only hope that one day soon we'll understand our true economic buying power by investing in our own communities and putting our money into businesses that keep our dollars in our community.
It is imperative for US to parent our children and educate them outside of the school systems, as our education system was not designed to lift US out of oppression. If we know that the pipelines to prisons are multiplying, well we must ask ourselves what can we do to end it? We must keep ourselves busy with finding ways to generate wealth for generations to come and work to pass down things to our children for them to pass down to their children. You see man, who wants to fight who on Instagram should not be as important as fighting for equality…and who's f**king who should never be as important as creating a strategy to help break the cycle [of]

Apple Files Patent for Un-skip-able Ads on iPhones, iPods
From :
"Filing a patent application, of course, doesn't necessarily mean that the company plans to use the technology. But the application shows, at the least, that Apple has invested in research to develop what it calls an 'enforcement routine' that makes people watch ads they may not want to watch.
"Its distinctive feature is a design that doesn't simply invite a user to pay attention to an ad — it also compels attention. The technology can freeze the device until the user clicks a button or answers a test question to demonstrate that he or she has dutifully noticed the commercial message. Because this technology would be embedded in the innermost core of the device, the ads could appear on the screen at any time, no matter what one is doing."
An "enforcement routine" to force ads down the throats of iPod users?! That will go over well! It reminds me of that ridiculous attempt by Japan's government to make it back in 2005.

It was pretty small, but the quality of the merchandise was really good. There was a variety of clothing, jewelry, buttons, accessories, crocheted items, and more!
My super awesome SIL was selling French macarons.
Don't those look perfect?!?!?!
And isn't she adorable?!

Welcome to Day 1 of the Benjamin Dopp Kit Sew Along! Today we will discuss the supplies and materials need to make your bag.
If you want to make things easy on yourself, hop on over to our Kit Shop and pick up your Benjamin Dopp Kit Supply Kit, which comes with the fabric and notions to make your bag, as well as the PDF pattern. Our kits are customizable, so you can choose from our eight colors of waxed canvas and four colors of lining. If you aren't sure what colors go well together, take a look at The Red Rabbit Mercantile Guide to Pairing Fabrics for some great ideas. Don't forget, subscribers to our email list get 15% off their Benjamin Supply Kit! Enter your email below to get your coupon code:
And now for the supplies:
For the outer body you will need 1/4 yard of heavy weight fabric. We recommend canvas that is at least 10 oz weight. Waxed canvas is particularly great for this project because it is water-resistant.
For the lining, you will need 1/4 yard of mid-weight fabric such as twill. You might consider using a dark color lining that would hide stains and dirt better, as toiletry kits are sometimes home to leaking bottles of lotions and potions.
For my sample bag I'm using Nantucket Red Waxed Canvas and Light Stone Eco Twill.
A Note on Waxed Canvas:
If this is your first time working with waxed canvas, check out our guide to working with waxed canvas for some great pointers.
As you can see in the photo below, I have a pretty deep crease on one piece of my waxed canvas.
Waxed canvas gets marks on it as you work with it. Over time, these marks become less noticeable and the fabric achieves a suede-like appearance. I personally like the look of all of the marks that occur as I work with my waxed canvas, but if you do want to get rid of a crease like this, you can "heal" the canvas with a little pressing. See our post on Healing Waxed Canvas for more. Whenever you press waxed canvas, make sure to use a press cloth to protect your iron and your work surface from melted oil and wax.
You will need a 12" non-separating zipper. We supply a high-quality nylon handbag zipper in our kits because we have found that the nylon zippers have the smoothest action. You can also use a metal zipper if you prefer.
You will also need four metal bag feet, a 4" x 9" piece of plastic embroidery mesh, and two 1/4" metal spots. The metal spots are just for decoration, so you can omit them if you like. I have to say they do look pretty great.
You will also want thread to match your outer fabric as well as your lining fabric. See our thread matching guide for help finding thread to coordinate with your fabric. We generally recommend using denim needles when sewing with waxed canvas, but I have found that universal needles also work for this project.
Sewing Supplies:
You will need the following tools:
A clear plastic ruler and seam gauge
A seam-ripper
Clips (Such as Wonder Clips)- These are optional but very helpful as they work better than pins for securing waxed canvas
Marking tools (air-soluble marker, pencil, chalk, etc. I like to use a knitting needle to mark waxed canvas)- Consider that you won't be able to wash your finished bag, so make sure your marking tools come off easily !
Zipper Foot
We will give you a couple of days to gather your supplies before we start sewing! Please let us know in the comments section if you have any questions about the fabrics or supplies needed for this bag!

The federal government missed a real opportunity to get intelligence from Christmas Day accused bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab because authorities indicted him while he was still talking, a Republican lawmaker said Sunday.
Abdulmutallab was in FBI custody for about 30 hours before he claimed a lawyer and clammed up.
"When you indict him, you immediately read him his Miranda rights, you give him a lawyer and he stops talking," Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., said Sunday. "You can pursue a court action against this person later on if you want to, but right now the key thing is intelligence."
Kyl joined 21 Republicans in sending a letter to President Obama on Friday night urging him to try the alleged underwear bomber in front of a military tribunal instead of a civilian court.
But Democrats say intelligence officials got what they needed from Abdulmutallab, who failed in his attempt to detonate an explosive during a Northwest flight from Amsterdam to Detroit.
"They obtained actionable intelligence and they made a decision after that -- the local prosecutors -- that the individual should be tried in civil court," Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., told "Fox News Sunday."
Reed added that the Bush administration successfully indicted many terrorists, including shoe-bomber Richard Reid, whose attempted attack mirrors Abdulmutallab's in several ways.
"We have charged and, in many cases, convicted hundreds of individuals since 9/11 in our civil courts as criminals. And I think one -- and it's an effective way to seek justice," Reed said, adding that, using the civilian court system "takes away the aura that the Al Qaeda elements try to project, that these are soldiers."
But Kyl said if the president says the U.S. is at war with Al Qaeda, it should act like it.
"When the president says, 'we are at war,' what he needs to do is back that up with a sense of urgency and instruct the people that work for him that they've got to treat this like a war, including gathering all the intelligence you can gather, and that means questioning people such as the Christmas bomber over Detroit," he said.
"I don't think the president's action matched his rhetoric when we send this individual to a civilian court. That person should be tried as an enemy combatant, he's a terrorist," said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said on CNN. "And if we are at war, then we certainly should not be trying that individual in a court other than a military trial. To have a person be able to get lawyered up when we need that information very badly, I think betrays or contradicts the president's view that we are at war."
Abdulmutallab got his terror training in Yemen, say intelligence officials, and that has become the new focus for counterterrorism officials. The United States and Britain recently announced they're sending money toward a counterterror police force that has begun training there.
Yemen is desperately poor despite being neighbors to oil-rich Arab nations. The Yemeni government is unstable, facing potential civil war. Sen. Joe Lieberman said three cases relating to terror attacks in the United States -- the Arkansas recruiting office attack, the Fort Hood shooter and the Detroit bomber -- are all tied together because of Yemen.
"They all three of those have a connection to Al Qaeda on the Arabian Peninsula, which is headquartered in Yemen," Lieberman said, pointing to "human errors" at the National Counterterrorism Center, the CIA and the Department of Homeland Security in the handling of Abdulmutallab.
Lieberman said he believes some of the humans who made those errors have to be disciplined so that they never happen again.
