Man Attempts to Open Fire on Crowd at Movie Theater, Armed Off-Duty Sheriff's Deputy Drops Him With One Bullet
With one shot, an off-duty sheriff's deputy took down a gunman who attempted to opened fire at a crowded movie theater lobby during a late night showing of "The Hobbit" in San Antonio, WOAI reports.
Police say a gunman, identified as Jesus Manuel Garcia, chased patrons from the nearby China Garden Restaurant into the lobby of the Santikos Mayan 14 movie theater at around 9 p.m. on Sunday. Garcia, an employee of the restaurant, reportedly walked in the establishment looking for a woman.
When the woman, also reportedly a restaurant employee, wasn't there, Garcia pulled out a gun and attempted to open fire in the restaurant but his weapon jammed.
"It started at the restaurant and then went into the parking lot and then into the movie theater," Deputy Lou Antu told 1200 WOAI news.
The commotion sent horrified restaurant patrons into the movie theater lobby, but the gunman followed. He again attempted to open fire, and this time his gun didn't jam. Garcia reportedly shot one man in the chest before Antu says an off-duty sheriff's deputy working security the theater shot him once, dropping him to the floor.
Bexar County sheriff's Sgt. Lisa Castellano reportedly chased the gunman toward the back of the theater. The 13-year department veteran cornered him after he ran into a men's restroom and shot him before taking his gun.
Due to the off-duty deputy's bravery, the gunman was not able to make it into the theater where he could have potentially taken many lives.
The gunman and the man he shot remain hospitalized, according to WOAI.
Police say a recent breakup set off the man's shooting spree on Sunday, MySanAntonio.com reports.
Jesus Manuel Garcia, 19, an employee at a China Garden restaurant next to the Santikos Mayan Palace 14 theater, apparently became upset Sunday night after his girlfriend broke up with him.If Garcia survives his attempt at mass murder, officials say he will likely face a charge of attempted capital murder as he allegedly shot at the San Antonia police car on Southwest Military Drive as he ran from the restaurant and into the theater.
He lashed out by sending her a message saying he planned to go to the restaurant and "shoot somebody," said Bexar County sheriff's Sgt. Raymond Pollard.
Pollard said the woman called to warn restaurant employees, but by the time she saw his message, Garcia was already outside the China Garden firing a Glock 23 at the front door about 9:25 p.m.

The Propagation Velocity of Electromagnetic Waves
Now we've derived the wave equation from Maxwell's equations, and we have worked out the plane-wave solutions. But there's more to Maxwell's equations than just the wave equation. Still, let's take some plane-waves and see what we get.
First and foremost, what's the propagation velocity of our plane-wave solutions? Well, it's for the generic wave equation
while our electromagnetic wave equation is
so we find the propagation velocity of waves in both electric and magnetic fields is
Conveniently, I already gave values for both and :
Multiplying, we find:
which means that
And this is a number which should look very familiar: it's the speed of light. In an 1864 paper, Maxwell himself noted:
The agreement of the results seems to show that light and magnetism are affections of the same substance, and that light is an electromagnetic disturbance propagated through the field according to electromagnetic laws.
Indeed, this supposition has been borne out in experiment after experiment over the last century and a half: light is an electromagnetic wave.

You have done a remarkable work so far to expound the principles of electrostatics. I have to re-read all the posts and absorb.
Here you have found the speed of light. That is based on two other constants. I have to read the older posts to see if those constants were calculated from from principles. Otherwise, there is some circularity here.
I am still not sure whether you proved in all these posts Maxwell's equations from vector calculus alone (generalized Stokes' theorem). If that is the case, it proves the power of vector calculus.
No matter the questions that linger in mind, what you done relating calculus and electrostatics is truly wonderful. Congratulations! I hope you continue this effort.

Thinking of getting into reloading with Lee hand press
I think I'm finally going to get into reloading because I realized that I do restrict a lot of my shooting due to ammo costs. I love shooting 357mag and 44mag, but price gets pretty crazy just buying the ammo. Whats always stopped me from reloading is that I really don't have any space. I live in a small apartment with my girlfriend and I'm not kidding when I say we don't even have space to set up stool as a reloading setup. So I know a lot of you might advise against it, but I think I'm going to go ahead with a Lee's hand press. I know its really slow, so I most likely won't reload 9mm since I go through them too fast and I buy factory reloads for not that much more than it might cost to reload.
So I have a few questions..
1. First off I will primarily be reloading 357mag. What kind of savings will I be looking at here for just plinking ammo? I know reloading match ammo doesn't yield too much savings and I'll probably do it every now and then, but I'm really looking to save on range plinking ammo. Also throw 44mag and 45ACP in here. If I start reloading, I'll definitely get more guns in these calibers.
2. So I'll get the Lee hand press (I believe these come with funnel and the other small stuff), the appropriate carbide dies, brass tumbler, and something to weigh it all.. anything else really necessary aside from manuals, etc?
3. On the topic of manuals.... with all the sources on the net.. what are some reliable ones? I've already did some research on reloading and have heard differing views on the necessity of manuals. Essentially, everything in the manuals can be found on the net and just printed out.
4. Since I've already brought up my small space (one of the downsides of living near work in CA), I have limited storage space. I probably will never buy primers and powder in bulk which I know also diminishes on the money I save.. but I'd still be interested in any storage advice. From what I've gathered, just keep them separate, possibly in low static, and even in their original packaging. I'm hearing differing views on the potential for fires on these items... essentially many do think its overstated and we probably have things under out kitchen sink thats more volatile.
I'm open to any tips in equipment or reloading in general. I'm actually quite excited as this is letting me still be in the shooting hobby without being on the range. Lately my schedule hasn't allowed me to be free during range hours.. so this'll give me something extra to do on free nights. Maybe I can even talk my lady into doing some of the stages like removing the spent primer on her free time
Sorry I know this is a lot and much of it can be Googled (which I'm already doing and will continue doing.. just want extra sources) but I'd definitely appreciate it if anyone in here can share some helpful tidbits on any single points.
I support peace through superior firepower.
"Para ser libre, un hombre debe tener tres cosas, la tierra, una educacion y un fusil. Siempre un fusil ! (To be free, a man must have three things; land, an education and a rifle. Always a rifle)" -Emiliano Zapata.
I can't really give you any advice on the calibers you plan to load but I did also start on the hand press. It works fine and I still use it when I want to do some simple tasks like depriming in front of the TV. You'll do fine speed wise with it. The couple of things i'd get if I were you would be a scale, hand primer, and a powder thrower. Honestly, hand weighing each load will get old quick.
If I were to do it all over again i'd just start with a turret press, however I presume the reason for starting with the hand press is space related, so buy with confidence.
How much you save in reloading depends on many factors. Mainly buying in bulk is the best way to save.
The small Lee Hand Press will work "ok" for now with pistol calibers, but you will definitely want to get a mounted press. It is just difficult to maneuver since there is really no leverage.
I personally REALLY like the Lee Classic Turret press for budget reloading. For under $200, you can have a complete press setup for 1 caliber.
Really comes down to your budget. You still need to get a tumbler, calipers etc etc.
From what I gathered.. I've seen some people just use Simple Green and hot water to clean brass. Any of you have experience with that? Also I saw on a reloading on a budget that Lee dies come with scoops that will measure out the general powder as long as you use the powders listed. I imagine for pistol cartridges this is enough seeing that I don't see the bullet dropping down all that much at such close distances. As a whole, most of this isn't about initial cost of equipment, I have to take space into account. Adding something like a tumbler means it'll just be another "appliance" sitting there next to my Vita-Mix blender, haha.
I started handloading with a Lee Loader in about 1960. I see they still make the Lee Loader, a set of hand tools that is used with a rubber mallet. Primitive, but similar to the Wilson dies that benchrest shooters use with an arbor press. My first loads were the .44 Magnum for a Ruger Deerstalker semiauto carbine and Super Blackhawk revolver.
I use a Lee Hand Press today so I can sit at the kitchen table and deprime only or size and deprime brass while watching TV (I don't allow electronics in the loading room). It is also handy for taking afield to reload ammo if I run out. The press is slower than a bench mounted model, but faster than the Lee Loader or Wilson dies and an arbor press. You can also use carbide dies in the Lee hand Press to avoid having to lube handgun cases.
If you use nickel plated brass for the .357 Magnum, cases will wipe clean after firing using a patched moistened with non ammonia powder solvent such as BoreTech Eliminator. In fact, even brass cases can be wiped clean before the carbon hardens. I wipe all carbon off the necks of rifle ammo and then use a quick twist with a towel to dry at the range bench. You do not need to clean straight walled cases to get started. Lee sells a primer pocket cleaner for a few bucks, which is about the only area of concern. The other alternative is to polish the deposits off the brass with a wad of fine steel wool.
Just about any small tool box will work for storage, but keep primers and powder separate. When I started out I couldn't afford more than a couple of trays of primers, a pound of powder and single box of bullets (100 bullets then cost about $2.00). After mastering the Lee Powder Dipper measuring system, purchasing a powder scale is the next step upward.
Any of the manuals will teach you the basics, and RCBS has free videos as does some other web sites.

I saw someone make a small box with a mounted press.. seems like a decent setup, but I wonder if this is actually less stable than just using the hand press.
At the very least, if I do decide to start with the hand press.. it sounds like it wouldn't be too big of a waste if I decide to move on to something bigger in the future. People seem to love using the hand press for other purposes to keep their mounted presses free for the most important steps.

Lee hand press
I started with a Lee hand press and still use it for about 80% of my reloading. I usually measure powder by volume (Lee dippers) but you should have a scale to check the weights before and occasionally during your loading session.
I load 9mm, .38, .357, .44 spl, .44 mag, .45 ACP and .45 Colt on the press with carbide dies (LEE and RCBS).
I mostly load the .38 and .44 spl since these shoot rather well with cast bullets at modest velocities. If I'm off a little on the powder charge it doesn't seem to matter but MAKE SURE YOU DON'T DOUBLE CHARGE A CASE! Have a system/routine and double check.
I weigh each charge for the magnum loads and anything near plus P pressure. I use jacketed bullets for these and it's not hard to get good results but the cost goes up due to the bullets.
As far as overall cost, buy primers by the 1000 at 3-4 cents each. Powder is close to the same for mild loads. Price of the projectile is the main cost after your initial set up (press, dies etc).
It's worth it if:
A) you shoot a lot
B) you get enjoyment spending time reloading and finding different loads
I'd recommend you get some .38 and .44 spl brass and give it a try.
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks for all the input.. for those who use the Lee Hand Press.. do you prefer to use the Ram Prime attachment or a separate hand primer tool? Seems like the hand primer tool will be better as you don't have to touch the primers with your hands as much (if at all) and thats one less attachment to screw on/off.
I used to load mainly with the Lee Hand Press when my kids were born and we lived in a small apt. Everything I needed was in a plastic storage box.
I find most useful are:
1. powder measure - allows you to set the powder charge weight and charge empties fast. The Lee scoopers are useless. I use RCBS.
2. hand priming tool - seats the primers fast and safe. folds up into a small box for easy storage. have both large and small primer adapters. I use RCBS one.
3. loading blocks - makes powder charging, bullet seating faster and more stable.
4. balance beam scale - cheap, reliable and never need batteries. Just need to make sure you take it apart and store it properly after use.
5. tumbler is best but brass brush and '00' steel wool cleans the cases just fine since you don't need lube on the straight wall pistol cases.

Don't count your hits and congratulate yourself, count your misses and know why.
BTW, I still use my Lee Hand Press for developing loads at the range and the same storage box. Instead of loading 10 or 15 rounds of 1 load at home, I load 5 rounds at the range and shoot for group. If it does well, I load another 5 to confirm or move on to the next load.
I loaded 10Ks of 357/38spl for competition. PM me if you need any more info. Enjoy

I think you would be better off with a mounted press.

For now, since you are only shooting revolver rounds, there is no need to tumble. A damp rag will be enough to wipe off the soot and you won't need to remove any dirt/mud since the cases won't be hitting the ground. Folks have been reloading cartridges for decades before tumblers/sonic cleaners/steel pins came out.
One of the tricks to avoid sooty cases is to ensure proper pressure and case expansion.
As others said, a hand press will work and if you don't shoot more than 50-100 in session, then you should be OK. It will take a couple of hours to load that many and you'll be pretty worn out at the end of the session. With a single stage press mounted on a Black & Decker Workmate bench and held on with some C-clamps, you will take almost as long, but the effort will be much less and the space requirements will be almost as small in that everything can be broken down, folded up and put away in a box.
I recommend a Lee Breechlock Challenger kit (not the Anniversary kit) because you can prime off press or on press (one primer at a time). You will always be able to use the single stage press in the future for rifle rounds, sizing cast bullets or single step fixes while you use a turret/progressive.
The main rounds I shoot are .38/357. Here's my cost savings. Mind you, this is with bullets that I cast myself ("boolits"). But it'll give you an idea. All cost figures assume 8 reuses of the brass, and purchasing both lead and brass up-front. We assume here that lead is $1.00/lb, and that 1,000 brass cases costs about $50/1000 (.38 Spl) or $75/1000 (.357 Magnum).
.38 Special, 105gr LSWC, 3.9gr Bullseye: $3.25/box of 50.
Factory ammo: $15/box of 50.
Cost savings/box: $11.75.
.357 Magnum, 158gr LRNFP, 13.0gr 2400: $4.50/box of 50
Factory ammo: $23-$25/box of 50.
Cost savings/box: $18-$20
My cost savings for .45 Colt ranges from $30 to $72 per box of 50, depending on whether I load it mild or wild. My "wild" load is equivalent to an $80.03 box of Buffalo Bore. I make that same box for $8.00.
BTW, +1 for the Lee Breech-Lock Challenger press suggestion. Those things are great. A Classic Turret Press would be another excellent choice.

Thanks for the very informative posts. I might consider getting a clamped press on to a box like this:
Wanna find something sturdy though and not sure how the wood on this particular box is. This would be perfect.
Woah, that's sold from Brownells? Have a link?

Any one of the powders mentioned (Bullseye, Unique, 2400) will work fine for all your needs, as will many others.
For the cartridges you are talking about, the Lee hand press is plenty adequate for low volume reloading. I'm good for 50 rounds at time with this setup, before it gets to be an uncomfortably boring drag. That's depriming, sizing/flaring and seating.
There is no separate shell holder needed, the tool fits all cartridge cases.
It uses the CCI APS priming strips to feed primers into position. CCI Primers can be purchased packaged in the APS strips, the strips reused, or new strips purchased separately. Any brand of primer can be loaded in the strips, either by hand, I press them into the strip with a thumb, or a strip loader can be purchased that loads them in bulk. When I load a 1000 rounds, I use the strip loading tool.
Most precision shooters use a hand tool for better "feel' in seating primers.
I started with a handpress and still use it when I don't feel like going out to my turret press. Its a good little press, just skip loading anything like .308 on it. But I agree with hand priming as mentioned before

I ran into Buddha on my way to the Thursday night race in Seattle. He caught my attention because Buddha is a Briard (same breed that I have) which popular in the south of France, but is sort of rare for the states. Buddha rides in the trailer to and from the office most every day with his owner, and while Briards look like a big pile of fur, they weight almost 100lbs. I didn't catch the owner's name, but he was riding a sweet Davidson with S&S couplers.
Quote from the owner, "His name is Buddha – he's all about happiness". Looked pretty happy to me!

Senate Candidate Angle Accuses Senator Reid Of Copyright Infringement For Displaying Angle's Website
from the that's-not-how-this-works dept
So, what does she do? She sends a cease-and-desist to Reid for publishing her own website claiming that it infringed on her copyright. No, seriously. You can read the cease & desist here and laugh along with it. Her lawyers claim that Reid only did this to capture email addresses under false pretenses, but it seems pretty clear that Reid's campaign just wanted to highlight some of Angle's more incendiary comments from the primary campaign, which she's now trying to back away from.
And, of course, because of all of this, Angle and her lawyers handed the Reid campaign a perfect peg to highlight exactly those statements.

While most cyclists prefer to stay indoors when it rains, there are a hardy few who venture out when the weather is miserable. There are, of course, sometimes when riding in the rain is unavoidable—you just kind of get caught in it. But as anyone who has ridden in the rain can attest to, it imparts its own kind of pleasure. It's cold, it's wet, and it's miserable, but it also comes with a feeling of toughness and the kind of pride that can only come with facing down the elements.
It's even more enjoyable if you're properly prepared. Here are our Top 5 Essentials For Riding In The Rain.
1. Rain Jacket: There are many options when it comes to choosing a rain jacket, and the right one will depend on the conditions. A lightweight, packable rain jacket will easily fit into a jersey pocket, but generally these jackets are only water-resistant and don't breathe particularly well. On the flip side, a good water-proof rain jacket like the Shower's Pass Double Century EX or the Performance Borough rain jacket will keep you dry in even the worst downpours and breathe well to prevent moisture from building up inside, but they are bulky and will not easily fit into a jersey pocket or hydration pack.
2. Fenders: Fenders are essential for riding in the rain, especially if you'll be riding with a group. There are few things more irritation than being behind a rider who has a rooster tail of road spray shooting up into your face from his rear wheel. Don't be that guy. There are several options to choose from when it comes to fenders, from traditional eyelet mounted options, clip on options, or the venerable "beaver tail".
3. Lights: Even if it's daylight out, you should ride with lights—for the same reason cars turn their lights on in the rain. The sky is darker, rain can obscure your outline, and drivers are already distracted. Using lights will make you more visible, and help you stay safe.
4. Cycling Cap: A cycling cap, worn underneath your helmet, will help keep the rain from running into your eyes while you ride, and help shield your face from the rain. Plus, few things make you feel tougher and like you are seconds away from winning Paris-Roubaix than pedaling along in the rain and seeing the drips fall off the brim of your cap.
5. Chain Lubricant: When you get home, the first thing you should do—before you even hop in the shower—is wipe your chain dry and apply a fresh coat of lubricant. This will prevent your chain from corroding and forming rust from staying wet. You should also apply a small amount of lubricant to your derailleur springs and brake pivot points.

New Mexico State University's Entrepreneurship Institute is now accepting applications from inventors, technologists, researchers and small business owners for its Entrepreneur Ventures Program next spring.
The deadline to submit an application is Jan. 14, 2013. Those selected will receive specialized support and resources to help start and grow businesses and commerce.
"The Entrepreneurship Institute is interested in helping New Mexicans build businesses, large or small, in any sector," said Sara Sanders, entrepreneurship director at the Arrowhead Center. "Our state is diversified and so are our companies. From agriculture, to the arts, to home-based businesses, to tech-based startups, our program strives to help entrepreneurs succeed. We are here to help translate ideas into products and businesses, especially at the early stage."
Sanders said that services for the Entrepreneur Ventures Program are customized to fit the client's needs. The program's services include feasibility, market and industry assessments. Applicants accepted into the program are chosen based on a variety of factors, including the degree to which their proposal promises to contribute to economic development in New Mexico.
"The institute engages its most significant asset, highly engaged Student Innovation Teams, which link entrepreneurs, faculty researchers and research partners statewide," Sanders said.

The Spinner Centrifuge Plans: Review
Saturday morning had 2 unexpected surprises for me. The first was the postman pounding on my door because I had a special delivery envelope. These make me nervous when I'm not expecting anything. The second was opening the envelope and finding a set of plans explaining how to build and operate a centrifuge designed by Bud.
I'm going to forgo chronological order for a minute and say the plans are "FANTASTIC and you need a set" before you get bored reading and leave with a wrong impression. Bud owns and operates a homebuilt centrifuge that cleans oil in a single pass. It is scalable to both volume and how well you want the oil cleaned. It can clean it to 5 microns or 10 or 1 micron or to .01 microns if this is what you want. It's cheap simple and easy to build and I'll have one before the end of August.
When I first opened the envelope and pulled out the folder containing the 12 page plans I wasn't ready to read through them but I did quickly scan through them. The first six pages are text and it didn't seem very technical. I was a little disappointed so I flipped to the back six pages full of the meat and potatoes drawings. I glanced at them and wasn't all that impressed either. I tossed it on the kitchen table and would get back to it later.
Later that afternoon I sat and read the plans word for word and looked at the drawings. I understood the basic concept but thought Bud only had it about half right. I still wasn't impressed. The drawings were overly simplified and some of the stuff didn't make sense, as in, why is this done this way? Why is this piece shaped like that or overlapping this piece? I could picture how easy it would be to build but it needed a lot of cleaning up to "look" professional. Thinking to myself "I'd change this, this, and this if I built one." I tossed the plans back on the table.
Last night I read the plans again for the second time cover to cover. The first thing that popped in my head was the writing isn't very technical, but truthfully it isn't supposed to be. It is supposed to be informative and communicate an idea. It does and because it is written in very plain English it is actually quite easy to understand. I was being overly critical earlier because I thought it "should" be hard. It isn't hard and this is part of the genius.
I flipped back to the drawings again: Three overview drawings and three detail drawings of components. I sat looking at each drawing and visualized building and operating the centrifuge.
Why are these pieces over lapping?
Check the text and drawings and overview. "Ohhh, no seal needed doing it this way."
Why are these pieces over-lapping?
Check the plans again… "Ohhhhh, so the oil is retained at high load."
Why is this piece this tall???
Check the plans again… "Ohhhh, because it keeps cross contamination from happening on shut-down.
I scrutinized Bud's plans front to rear, top to bottom, and can only say Bud has a working home built centrifuge that cleans his oil with no mess, fancy wording, or expensive materials. And it obviously works quite well.
Bud personally cleans 5 gallons at a time with his centrifuge, but his little do-jigger will also continuously clean 55 gallon drums, 275 gallon totes, or an endless stream of oil in a "SINGLE" pass. The only limiting factor is how big your storage is.
Once you get the basic concept of his key pieces it can all be scaled up or down to suit your own personal tastes. It is adaptable and cheap. It will work with a ½ h.p. motor or a ten h.p. motor. You could even get cute and power it with an svo diesel engine if you wanted.
I'm still a little disappointed…
I should have thought of this myself.
It is definitely right up there with sliced bread and all the other great ideas because… it is so simple you feel silly. Also like all the other great ideas it is a trick that isn't much of a trick at all… once you know the secret that is.
Bud quotes $50.00 for material plus the motor and machine time and incidental plumbing. Basically you can toss this thing together out of scrap for free or maybe $300 with all brand new shiney materials and a coat of paint.
You don't have to own your own lathe to take advantage of this. Any machine shop should be able to fabricate the pieces in short order.
Congratulations Bud, I hope a lot of people take advantage of your plans. I know I will and best of all they aren't carved in stone… easily scaleable is a plus for everyone involved. Thanks.This message has been edited. Last edited by: im6under,

Well Budd so far has limited sending his plans to a select few for review I guess. Look forward to when he releases them for the rest of us. I'm assuming though his intent is to make them available for sale and not public domain.
Either way I look forward to their release. Been stalling to builing my new filter setup cause I just felt something like this was around the corner.
Budd if you want a hands on review of building one Im game.
Thanks for your time and efforts Budd and 6Under.
If you believe you can't YOUR RIGHT;
But equally so.... if you believe you can, YOUR RIGHT as well.
how to get a set of plans?
bud says:
"Well guys here it is.
Had the drawing for the complimentary plans and they were mailed out Wednesday afternoon and the winner should get them in a few days.
If anyone want to order a set of plans for the centrifuge, they are ready to mail.
Prices listed are all US funds only, and includes S/H. USA $27.50, Canada $28.50, Austrailia and New Zealand $31.50, United Kingdom $31.00. The difference prices are for the veried mailing costs.
The plans include instructions and operations, drawing and photograph. My phone number is also there in case you have question or would just like to BS. If you call just to BS, I'll feed you a line that could choak a dog, as I'm very good in the BS department.
If you would like to hear the feed back from the guy that got complimentary plans before you order any for yourself, that would OK as I don't want anyone to buy anything that they don't want or feel they can't use.
We are not set up for paypal or credit cards so we will have to work with the Postal Department. Money orders are best and prefered, but checks will work.
Send orders to

Thank you so much for the GLOWING POSITIVE review on the centrifuge plans. I'm sorry that I didn't make them more technical but that's not the way I am. Im just a simple guy and I write the way I talk, ( my wife says, mouth open and running all the time ). Mostly I'm thrilled that you plan to have your centrifuge in operation by the end of August, and I hope you have as much fun as I have had building and operating my own machine.
Thank you for reposting the ordering info on this thread.
Good luck and enjoy.
That's what we enjoy, here in the West
A couple of questions from the other-side
correct me if I'm wrong on anything here...
The largest chunk of crud it could handle is potentially 3/32". This said I suppose you could change a specification to handle larger debris but then you'd have to clean it more often also. Straining to 200 microns has never been a problem for me so I planned on this size pre-screening regardless of machine capability.
something else "NO" disassembly required for cleaning. Some centrifuges are like pulling engines to change spark plugs... not this one. It's easily cleaned immediately after shut-down.
In bud's present configuration he cleans 5 gallons in about 2 1/2 hours with 1300G's of force.
It's difficult to not just tell you what he did to make this gizmo, it really is that simple but I am honor bound to not ruin sales for him.
The most important thing about Bud's gizmo is the concept. The exact specifications are infinately variable. Meaning, once you see what he did, you can build one just like it or tear off in a different direction different parts and get the same thing done.
like a sucker tank??? you don't have to use a 30 gallon water tank. it could be a 5, 50, or hundred gallon water, propane, or air tank. however you do it... it is a sucker.
Bud's invention is like that, build right off the plans... or make it bigger, smaller, three legs or four??? 5 gallons in 2 hours or ten gallons every 30 minutes 1300g's or 2500g's ??? when you're all done you'll have a centrifuge that works.
To me its the simplicity that is the elegance. Your paying for an education that can take you alot farther than just the line drawings.
I don't think anyone will feel cheated by these plans... but alot will say... ohhhh is that all??? well I coulda done that.
yeah but you didn't... and now you know how to... and cheaply also...
Though your argument is very clever, I don't think it will lead to the results you desire. gandhi
A simple question for Bud or im6under,
How big is 5 gallon centrifuge? Is it something you can use in a backyard in a normal suburb or is it something for those who have more land or a barn?
i'm don't understand how the centrifuge works with a continueous flow. i understand the dynamics of spinning and have seen centrifuges for labs with test tubes.
i found this web page, but still don't understand.
idp centrifuge
this seems to be small and functional. i've ordered literature.
can anyone point me to how the particles/water are taken out of the centrifuge and how the clean oil exits?
Could this be used on WMO?
Actually, the Spin-Clean and Spinner II at the IDP link you provided require continuous oil in order to function at all. Unlike most lab and other common centrifuges which use electric motors to spin their turning elements, the Spin-Clean and Spinner II are turned by the hydraulic pressure oil the engines oil pump. As long as oil is being pushed in the line, the rotor spins.
My very uneducated guess at how they work has been deleted because I discovered it was jest that - uneducated.
Thanks for the good words about the centrifuge, but I didn't invent it as they have been around for a long time. Actually the only thing that I did was apply the centrifuge to clean WVO and make it a continuous cleaning process. Is yours about ready to go into operation?
About the size, Mine is about 30" high, and has a stand attached for a 5 gallon bucket above that for the dirty oil supply and requires 3X3' of floor space. It weighs about 70 or 80 lbs. and most of that is the electric motor.
The basic way that it works. The oil is fed in at an even rate, spins around inside the rotor where the contaminants are forced to the outside and the good stuff comes out over the top. It is all explained in the plans.
I assume you are refering to oil like used engine lube oil.
So far the only testing that I have done on engine oil is for WVO contamination in the lube oil, and on my Datsun pickup there doesn't seem to be any. I plan to do some engine lube oil soon just to see what the quality of the centrifuged oil. I think I will send samples to an oil testing lab in Colorado for the final results. They are in the business of testing oil and I have had them do some for me before and have been quite satisfied. But I don't think there is any reason why it should not do a good job on used engine oil. If you want a really good job of cleaning, all the is necessary is to slow down the infeed rate. I have run some WVO through the second time and you wouldn't believe how clean it comes out.
That's all I know, here in the West.
The cruddy oil and its crud is heavy. when you spin it the heavy crud stays at the bottom and the cleaner stuff begins to climb the outer wall due to "G"forces. You know like that carnival ride where they strap a bunch of you to basically a verticle skate board. Then they spin the whole contraption and you all roll upward a few feet (max the thing allows). Then they drop the floor just the scare the crap out of ya. Welll.... that's how it works. The lighter oil climbs the walls and spills over the edge of the inner spinning bowl. (or something along those lines) This spilled out portion collects in the non spilling bowl. This non spinning bowl has an open valve that allows the good oil to drain out into whatever you want it to go into.
If you believe you can't YOUR RIGHT;
But equally so.... if you believe you can, YOUR RIGHT as well.
Thanks for the explanation Jeepin, I now get it.
I know a similar process is used to seperate oil from water. Any ideas how that is done?
You may have addressed these questions in one of the other threads, but if you did, I missed it.
Does your centrifuge separate the water out also? Have you tested the oil to make sure it's completely dewatered?
I'm very interested.
Also, for the parts that do have to be machined, have you given any thought to just manufacturing them and sending them along with your plans? I like to do things myself, but I don't have any metalworking tools.

Attempting to resurrect a rusted out 85 Ford Tempo
you didn't invent the centrifuge... but the sealess continous process is a bit unique.
Is mine ready to go??? no I won't have access to a big enough lathe until aug 14th and am waiting on a motor to arrive currently... should have it finished by the 18th though.
Though your argument is very clever, I don't think it will lead to the results you desire. gandhi
the plans state it will remove emulsified water but you should check for water after cleaning and if any is found your feed rate of oil is too high.
trying to explain this in simplified terms.
for a given size centrifuge, the longer the oil is spinning the cleaner it will be. example: with a feedrate of 10 gallons per hour, little cleaning will take place. with a feed rate of .5 gallons per hour alot of cleaning will take place.
to increase the feed rate and maintain the same cleanliness of the oil the machine would need to be scaled up accordingly to the amount per hour of oil you wanted to process.
as noted in the plans the described size centrifuge will clean 5 gallons of screened wvo in about two hours, to a very high degree of cleanliness.
In theory, if your oil were already dry, and you only needed the oil cleaned to five microns you could increase the infeed setting getting more oil filtered per hour.
to get the emusified water out and more oil per hour you'd have to scale the system up in size accordingly. This would not be hard to do. Granted there are reasonable limits, as the larger the rotor, the bigger the lathe has to be and the harder it would be to balance and now you need a bigger motor, ect...
basically this is a very good cheap answer to centrifuging at home, for the enthusiast that wants to handle a 100 gallons a week, if you want to do thousands of gallons a week in a commercial operation then there are other alternatives.
I ramble alot...
Though your argument is very clever, I don't think it will lead to the results you desire. gandhi
I'm kindoff new to WVO, and I am just wondering if the centrifuge will remove suspended microdroplets? From what i've read these seam to be a big problem and can cause damage to the IP.
Thanks, It sounds like a good thing.
I know now that the right guy won the draw on the centrifuge plan as you understand where the rabbit did it in the cabbage patch. You are very correct on the feed rate with this particular size machine, however you could use the same size rotor and feed a lot more oil and get it just as clean. Using the style shown in fig. 6, it would be possible to increase the "G"s by increasing the spindle speed. But with all things there is a limit. If the speed was increased, the spindle size should be increased also as something that is turning that fast, you sure don't want it come unglued, unscrewed or apart at the seams.
As you said, if the rotor size is increased, you there is greater problem in balancing the rotor. With my machine, running it 24/7 it could produce 40 to 50 gallons every 24 hrs.
Thats my suggestion, from here in the West
Buuud, do your plans also show how to build and incorporate the continuous feed?
Hi Buuuuud,
could you please check your email and PM ?

Yet Another Teen Making Stupid Jokes On Social Media Now Faces Years In Jail
from the not-this-again dept
The latest one involves Justin Carter, a teenager in Texas who made a joke on Facebook where he and some other kids were hassling each other over the video game League of Legends. One of the kids said something to Justin along the lines of, "Oh you're insane, you're crazy, you're messed up in the head." In response, Justin said:
'Oh yeah, I'm real messed up in the head, I'm going to go shoot up a school full of kids and eat their still, beating hearts,' and the next two lines were lol and jk.In context, there is nothing surprising or odd at all about this conversation. It's how teenaged boys communicate. They get on each other and mock each other and the response was actually pretty reasonable. One kid called him insane, and he responded by effectively mocking the claim that he was insane. And then immediately followed it up with lol and jk to cement the fact that he was kidding -- which should have been obvious to everyone anyway, even without the caveats.
But... apparently it was not obvious to the police, or to some very confused woman in Canada who called the police.
Justin Carter was arrested the next month and has been jailed since March 27. He's charged with making a terroristic threat and is facing eight years in prison, according to his dad.It turns out that Justin's mother actually posted a comment on our last story about Cam D'Ambrosio, which I didn't see until just now, explaining much of his story as well, and linking to a Change.org petition trying to get her son released from prison.
Once again, this situation is insane. We've reached a point where media hype and moral panics are leading law enforcement to seriously overreact to anything they think is a threat. We have no problem at all with law enforcement checking in on situations like this, but they should quickly realize what it is and move on. To arrest someone for such a joking comment on Facebook, and then to keep him in jail and legitimately claim that it was some sort of "terroristic threat," is shameful and suggests that law enforcement is more interested in building up their "stats" than actually making sure that justice is served and the public is safe.

The sustainability of the Minnesota music scene
Produced by Allegra Oxborough
Year after year, the Twin Cities earns national attention for its talented songwriters. Not only is Minnesota home to a vibrant live music scene, but an academic one as well—with 37 accredited music schools in our state. But the way we consume music is rapidly changing. Streaming services like Spotify and Rdio provide access to millions of songs without having to buy a hard copy, or even download tracks.
So how does technology and a changing music business affect the sustainability of our local music scene? KFAI producer Allegra Oxborough decided to find out. She asked musicians how they are adapting, and finding new revenue models to survive.
Dora Zaidenweber at Transfer of Memory
Produced by Tom Garneau
Earlier this year, KFAI, the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas and Bethel University partnered to present a special community engagement forum around Transfer of Memory photo exhibit of Holocaust survivors by David Sherman.
On January 22, a special reception was held at Bethel, featuring survivor Dora Zaidenweber. Ms. Zaidenweber recounted stories from her family history and discussed translating her father's memoir, "Sky Tinged Red," from Yiddish to English.
The event was part of What's in the Mix—a series of community engagement forums made possible by the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. It was recorded and produced for broadcast by Tom Garneau, and airs Wed, February 12, at 7:30pm, on MinneCulture.
Transfer of Memory is a traveling exhibit. It will be on display at the Otter Tail Historical Society in Fergus Falls, Minnesota, from February 18 through March 28.
Celebrating the Rondo neighborhood
Produced by Allison Herrera
Production assistance by Stuart Rosen
St. Paul's oldest African-American neighborhood is named after French Canadian fur trader Joseph Rondeau. After the civil war and during the reconstruction period in the south, many African Americans sought a better life and moved north. Some arrived in St. Paul, Minnesota, where jobs in the railroad and lumber industries were plentiful. Starting a new life on Rondo Avenue, residents became entrepreneurs, opening businesses and catering to the local community. Bonds were formed and friendships developed. A tight-knit neighborhood of people committed to education and opportunity evolved. Families looked out for one another.
Then in the 1960s, construction of Interstate 94 divided Rondo—shattering the community and displacing thousands of African Americans into a racially segregated city and discriminatory housing market. It radically changed the landscape, and erased a now-legendary neighborhood. Rondo still exists and its persistence and growth are celebrated through events like Rondo Days and the Jazz Festival. This audio documentary was produced by Allison Herrera with production assistance by Stuart Rosen.
Peggy's Dreams: Living life with Down syndrome
Produced by Marisa Helms
Peggy Mehen wants to make some changes in her life. She wants a new job. She wants to live independently. And her biggest dream is to be a supermodel. The fact that Peggy is a 40 year-old woman with Down syndrome has little impact on what she believes she can achieve. As a child growing up in the 1970s and '80s, Peggy belongs to a first generation of children with Down syndrome to be mainstreamed into schools—paving the way for today's generation of parents and people with Down syndrome who continue to push boundaries and demand greater inclusion and better social and medical supports in the community.
Peggy's Dreams: Living life with Down syndrome, was produced by Marisa Helms (marisahelms.com). Producer's Note: The 1952 educational film heard in my story, In Our Care: Woodward State Hospital and School, is part of a 13-week series of documentaries about Iowa's state institutions.

The Oldsmobile Cutlass lived on the automobile charts from 1985 to 1991, briefly teetering on the verge of extinction in 1987 when the manufacturer produced it as a limited edition. This marks one of the earlier vehicles to sport automatic transmission and a remarkable 92 hp for its time.
The Oldsmobile Cutlass comes in two body shapes, the sedan and the coupe, and earns recognition for its engine performance. The diesel edition however, does not receive very good responses in the market. This vehicle suffers from low engine performance, among other shortcomings. The 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass edition uses a 3.3-liter engine, which automobile enthusiasts find to accelerate poorly. Many view this as unacceptable even for the earlier years.
In the late 1990s, the vehicle released with a few optional features including a rear window defogger, leather interior upholstery, and an AM/FM radio. Other optional convenience features include power features such as power windows and a power driver's seat.
The 1991 Oldsmobile Cutlass marks the final vehicle to come off the manufacturing line under this name. This edition comes in eight trims, namely the Cutlass Calais Coupe and the Sedan, the Cutlass Calais S Coupe and Sedan, the Cutlass Calais SL Coupe and Sedan, and the Cutlass Calais International Coupe and Sedan. It sports different engines with the Cutlass Calais Coupe and Sedan, running on a 2.5-liter I4, 105-hp engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission. This engine offers an EPA fuel economy rating of 22/34 mpg city/highway.
The Cutlass Calais S Coupe and Sedan come with a 2.5-liter I4, 105-hp engine that also runs on a five-speed manual transmission. The Cutlass Calais SL Coupe and Sedan contain a 2.4-liter I4, 160-hp engine and a three-speed automatic transmission. The EPA rates this engine at 22/34 mpg city/highway. The Cutlass Calais International Coupe and Sedan employs a 2.3-liter I4, 180-hp, running on a five-speed automatic transmission.
The Oldsmobile Cutlass stands well in its class with a body length of 179.3 inches, a 66.9 inch width, and a 52.4 inch height, supported on a 103.4 inch wheelbase. It provides 37.9 inches of headroom, 42.9 inches of legroom, 53.8 inches of shoulder room, and 48.9 inches of hip room, which certainly holds its ground among the roomier vehicles of the sedan and coupe body types.
The older models of the Oldsmobile Cutlass did not impress much and often went un-reviewed. This either means that the vehicle does not impress its owners, or that the issues arising with the vehicles are not significant enough to gain written mention.
Speculation aside, the Oldsmobile Cutlass came to its production end in 1991, with little pomp or color.
1999 Oldsmobile Cutlass
Midsize, Sedan
The 1999 Oldsmobile Cutlass shows little change from the 1997 version with the exception of a Gold Package edition and two new colors.
1998 Oldsmobile Cutlass
The Oldsmobile Cutlass and many similarly named models have been fairly unremarkable for years.
