How do you find a good car to buy in Nigeria?
You're ready to purchase a second hand car and or you're wondering how to get a new car, there are few questions you need to answer correctly that will help you in buying the type of new or fairly used cars that you want.
1. What do you really want in a car?
This is an important question you should ask yourself before you venture into buying any car because the answer is as good as the car itself. Do you want a car that consumes less fuel, has affordable spare parts, easy to maintain and still has ample space? Then you should go for Toyota space wagons or Nissan Primera. These cars cost less and are easier to maintain. Do you want a car that can withstand Nigeria pot holes, cost less, consumes less fuel but the spare parts may be costly, then you can try Honda product. But it is good you answer these questions yourself because I may have a different taste for car from you. What I want in a car may be different from what you want.
2. Why do you want to buy the car?
Do you need it to be a family car for social occasions and 'school runs', going church or you want a simple car for your work or perhaps you want a car for taxi transport business in Nigeria. You have to decide why you want to buy the car. Know what you want to use the car for and consider the city or locality where the car will be use. Toyota Camry can be use for special taxi services in a city like Enugu, Port-Harcourt, Uyo, etc while Opel Vectra can be use for taxi services in a city like Jos, FCT, Kano, Yola, etc
3. How much do you wish to spend in buying the car? I mean what is your budget for the car like?
You don't have to buy a car that you can't afford to maintain neither would you want to buy a cheap car whose spare parts are expensive in Nigeria. Again, you don't have to consider price as a yard stick over actual value of the car. Don't buy a car because it's cheap. The car may have some hidden faults which you may not easily find out and will cost you dearly in fixing it up later. So, go for grade 1 cars and know the average market price before fixing your budget. N700, 000-N950, 000 can buy you a quality second hand car in Abuja, Lagos, Kano and Cotonou.
4. Will I be able to maintain the type of car I want to buy? You have to buy a car that you can maintain
Having answer these questions, lets process to where to buy new, fairly used cars in Nigeria and their prices.

A Superior Court judge refused on Friday to block a lawyer suing San Diego Gas & Electric Co. from sharing details of the case with reporters in advance of the trial.
Judge Jeffrey Barton rejected the utility's argument that attorney Daniel Gilleon could taint the jury pool by publicizing testimony taken in depositions earlier this year. Depositions in the case have been featured by the U-T Watchdog team and 10News.
"The court has reviewed the reporter's articles and the court cannot conclude that at this time a jury could not exercise its own judgment or was severely prejudiced by the pretrial publicity," Barton ruled.
Barton said he would grant extra leeway to attorneys during the jury-selection process to make sure the integrity of the trial is upheld.
SDG&E issued a statement saying it would not try the case in the media. "We look forward to sharing our story with the jury when the case begins in January," the statement said.
The case involves a former SDG&E lineman suing his former employer.
Bilal Abdullah, who is black, claims SDG&E tolerated a racially charged workplace. He said racist drawings were posted inside a common work area; a noose was tied to the back of his work truck; and colleagues used the N-word while on the job.
The company says Abdullah was fired after committing safety violations, and notes its award-winning record on diversity issues.
Earlier this year Gilleon released portions of taped depositions of SDG&E employees, including a diversity executive who testified that a noose is not necessarily a racial symbol.
"It's not just a noose, but also a knot," the executive said.
The ACLU of San Diego and Imperial Counties joined Gilleon is arguing against SDG&E's motion for a protective order, saying that releasing the testimony was constitutionally protected free speech.
The trial is scheduled to begin in early January.

Your doctor doesn't like what's going on with your blood pressure. You've been taking medication for it, but he wants to put you on a new drug, and you're fine with that. Then he leans in close and says in his most reassuring, man-to-man voice, "I should tell you that a small number of my patients have experienced some minor sexual dysfunction on this drug. It's nothing to be ashamed of, and the good news is that this side effect is totally reversible. If you have any 'issues' in the bedroom, don't hesitate to call, and we'll switch you to another type of drug called an ACE inhibitor." OK, you say, you'll keep that in mind.
Three months later, your spouse is on edge. She wants to know if there's anything she can "do" (wink, wink) to reignite the spark in your marriage. She's been checking out websites advertising romantic getaways. No, no, you reassure her, it's not you! It's that new drug the doctor put me on, and I hate it. When you finally make the call, your doctor switches you over to a widely prescribed ACE inhibitor called Ramipril.
"Now, Ramipril is just a great drug," he tells you, "but a very few patients who react badly to it find they develop a persistent cough…" Your throat starts to itch even before you fetch the new prescription. Later in the week, you're telling your buddy at the office that you "must have swallowed wrong" — for the second day in a row. When you type the words ACE inhibitor cough into Google, the text string auto-completes, because so many other people have run the same search, desperately sucking on herbal lozenges between breathless sips of water.
In other words, you're doomed. Cough, cough!
What's going on here? Just medicine-as-usual in a world where valuable drugs have annoying side effects and conscientious health professionals do their best to protect their patients from unpleasant (and potentially litigious) surprises? Sure. But a provocative new report by Winfried Häuser, Ernil Hansen, and Paul Enck in the journal of the German Medical Association suggests that the side effects of some drugs, and the discomfort of certain medical procedures, may be inadvertently intensified by doctors and nurses trying to keep patients fully informed of the consequences of their medical care. The culprit behind this phenomenon is the nocebo effect.
You can think of the nocebo effect as the evil twin of the placebo effect — the body's healing response to the act of taking a pill or receiving medical care, even if the pill itself is inert. The most familiar example of the placebo effect is what happens in trials of experimental drugs. One group of volunteers is randomly assigned to take the drug in question; another group is assigned to take placebo — a fake drug designed to look just like the real one. Neither the volunteers nor the staff know which group is which. If the drug group improves significantly more than the placebo group, the drug is judged to be effective. This kind of test — the double-blind, placebo-controlled trial — has been the gold standard of drug development in medicine for half a century.
In real life, gauging the effectiveness of a new medication is not quite that easy. In 2009, I wrote a widely-circulated article in Wired magazine about a mysterious increase in placebo effects in trials in recent years that is making it harder for Big Pharma to bring new drugs to market. I explored some of the reasons that might be happening in the article.
A placebo, you might say, is an ersatz drug that makes you feel better, while a nocebo is a fake drug that makes you feel worse. Of course, in both cases, it's not the pill that's doing the work; it's your own body, responding to the social context in which you take the pill. If a skilled doctor with kindly bedside manner tells you that drug X will reduce the inflammation of a minor injury, it often will — even if the drug itself is nothing but a capsule full of lactose, milk sugar. One of the astonishing things we've discovered about the placebo effect in recent years is how wide a range of ailments can be ameliorated by it, at least temporarily — from chronic pain, to high blood pressure, to inflammation, to depression and anxiety, to sexual dysfunction, to the nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it turns out that the nocebo effect is equally capable of making you feel more miserable, in a similarly broad range of ways.
One of the most interesting findings in the new report from Germany is about the underappreciated — and under-studied — role of nocebo effects in clinical trials.
If you tell a group of trial volunteers that they're testing a new drug that may relieve the pain of migraines, a significant number of volunteers will experience pain relief after taking the drug — even if they've been randomly assigned to the placebo group and are receiving nothing but sugar pills. The placebo effect in action.
But here's where it gets interesting. If you tell the volunteers that the side effects of this new medicine may include dry mouth, tingling in the hands and feet, and slight dizziness, some volunteers will experience precisely these side effects — in both groups. In fact, some volunteers who are taking nothing but sugar pills will be made so uncomfortable by these symptoms that they will choose to drop out of the trial early.
The relevance of the nocebo effect is not limited to clinical trials. A particularly nasty demonstration of its power can be provided by patients who are being treated for Parkinson's disease with small doses of electrical current delivered to certain structures in the brain. This technique, known as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), has been shown to be effective in controlling tremor and other motor issues in patients who are resistant to drugs. But if you tell a DBS patient that the current has been switched off — even though it remains on — their coordination and other motor functions will abruptly decline until you tell them that the juice has been switched on again. Classic nocebo.
The German researchers cite many other examples. In one study, 50 patients with chronic back pain were randomly divided into two groups before a leg flexion test. One group was informed that the test could lead to a slight increase in pain, while the other group was instructed that the test would have no effect. Guess which group reported more pain and was able to perform significantly fewer leg flexions?
Another example from the report: Patients undergoing chemotherapy for cancer treatment who expect these drugs to trigger intense nausea and vomiting suffer far more after receiving the drugs than patients who don't. That's not to say that this nausea is imaginary, purely psychological, or "all in their heads." Like placebo effects, nocebo effects are physiological, not just mental. Researchers like Franklin Miller at the National Institutes of Health and Tor Wager at the University of Colorado are learning that nocebo effects are mediated by neurotransmitters like dopamine, endogenous opioids, and cholecystokinin. Telling a volunteer that the scented Vaseline you're slathering on their arm is a pain-intensifying gel triggers a cascade of chemicals in the body that magnify sensations of discomfort.
How evil can the evil twin of the placebo effect get? Even setting aside anecdotal accounts of evil eyes and "voodoo death" (first reported by a doctor named William Cannon in 1942), nocebo effects can kill, or at least accelerate the progress of disease. In traditional Chinese astrology, some potentially fatal maladies like cancer are associated with certain birth years. A 1993 study of Chinese-Americans who came down with these diseases found that they were more likely to die faster if they were born in an "ill-fated" year associated with the disease — but only if they believed in traditional Chinese astrology. (In these tragic cases, a dose of skepticism could have at least staved off the inevitable for a little while.)
In recent years, the phrase "informed consent" has become a mantra in public health, which is good news for many reasons. But what if the lengthy litanies of side effects we've become accustomed to skimming over — on printouts at the pharmacy, in ads for the latest antidepressants — are self-fulfilling prophecies? What if our well-intentioned desire to prepare patients for the worst increases the probability that the worst will happen?
Even the specific words employed by a doctor can influence the course of a patient's treatment. Some particularly dreadful word choices cited by the German researchers include doctors telling patients:
You must strictly avoid lifting heavy objects — you don't want to end up paralyzed.
You are a high-risk patient.
We're putting you to sleep now. It will soon be all over.
Though the German report focuses on clinical practice and bedside manner, it's hard not to think about the broader implications of nocebo effects in daily life. If you're ever been told twice in one afternoon that you "look a little worn out," you know that it's a miracle if you don't feel utterly exhausted – if not physically ill — by the end of the day. Knowing about nocebo has made me much more careful when making observations about a friend's physical condition.
The German report also points out that nocebo effects deserve much more study. One promising avenue for research might be examining the role of negative messaging in large-scale social phenomena like the apparent increase in food allergies in recent years, or the surge in popularity of gluten-free diets. Having friends with celiac disease and autism, I'm fully aware that some people are truly gluten intolerant, and that banishing the dreaded protein from the menu can avert serious medical problems. But the new report makes me wonder if the flood of anti-gluten "awareness" messages on social networks isn't lengthening the lines for pricey GF pasta, crackers, and doughnuts at my neighborhood Whole Foods Market.
The conflict between the need for informed consent in medicine and our bodies' propensity to take social factors into consideration when calculating our own health status is not an easy problem. In recent years, the pendulum has swung so far in the direction of more-bad-news-is-better that it seems almost like heresy to suggest that some of this paternalistic advice may actually be making us sicker.
The new generation of placebo and nocebo research is teaching us that how we feel is highly dependent on the feedback we get from the people around us, particularly from trusted health professionals. The next time I get a headache, you'll forgive me if I don't re-read the label on the aspirin bottle warning me about the possibility of hives, facial swelling, asthma, shock, Reye's Syndrome, nausea, vomiting, severe stomach bleeding, allergic reactions, and distressingly vague "changes in behavior."
I'll just take two and hope for the best.

CPSR Chapters are valuable as local geographic groups within CPSR. Chapters should do what they are comfortable with, within the bounds of CPSR's MISSION, Program, and By-Laws, and know that Chapters have value simply by having a presence and contact on our website, and being in-situ consituencies of experts, who other members, the public, and the press can turn to for support and expertise, and who can be called upon to act on issues, organize or attend conferences, and work on projects as they arise. CPSR Chapters can simply meet for coffee, breakfast, lunch, dinner or dessert to give members some face-to-face contact that easily works into their busy lives. CPSR Chapters can go beyond this to actively educate other members, the public, and the press by serving themselves as speakers and experts; or presenting forums for outside speakers.

Now customers can avoid getting locked into a single cloud computing vendor
The product's interoperability feature means that an organization doesn't have to be locked into a single cloud computing vendor, Vordel said.
Deployed on an organization's local network, the Vordel Gateway Cloud Edition acts as the pivot point between applications and cloud-based services, providing an on-ramp from local applications to the cloud.
Lacking proprietary hardware, the product lets users benefit from the elasticity of the cloud to scale; capacity is added automatically as traffic grows, the company said.
"Low capital and operating costs make cloud computing very attractive," said Mark O'Neill, Vordel's chief technology officer. "However, security and interoperability are key concerns. At Vordel we saw that a way to leverage cloud computing services in a controlled, secure manner was required. The array of cloud connectors in the Vordel Gateway Cloud Edition offers organizations a pragmatic way to link to cloud platforms without coding and with governance in place."

Actually, calling it an action figure does it a bit of a disservice. The term "action figure" conjures all sorts of images, mostly of very small men. This custom Strider from the Half-Life universe is not very small at all.
Not only does it look awesome, but its builder, nomadamusic, says it was almost entirely made from scratch, and even includes a few points of articulation.
Who needs large toy companies when individual artists can make their own Striders? Not nomadamusic, that's for damn sure.

Dr. Hannah Hunt, Author and Theologian, Addresses Women Students
When Dr. Hannah Hunt studied theology as an undergraduate, she didn't know where it would lead. "I was newly pregnant as a student," she reminisced with the group of St. Vladimir's women students who gathered for tea in the home of Chancellor/CEO The Very Rev. Dr. Chad and Matushka Thekla Hatfield on Saturday afternoon, December 7, 2013. "My son was born during Easter break, and I started coursework for my masters degree while nursing a baby. Several years later while working on my doctorate I gave birth to our second son."
Hannah, a professor of Eastern Christian Studies, earned her PhD in Theology from the University of Leeds in West Yorkshire, England, with the thesis topic of "Spiritual Tears and Penthos (compunction) in the Early Christian Fathers." Since then, she has worn a number of hats as an author, mother, tutor, instructor, and adminstrator, as she has continued to focus on the spirituality of the early Eastern Christian Church.
As an author and professor, Dr. Hunt offered encouragement and suggestions to the women, who were listening with interest. "My husband unexpectedly left me with two children to care for, and I had to take any work that was offered me," she noted. "I never thought any job was beneath me, and I taught classes that weren't even in my subject. One year, I held eight different jobs with five different employers. I worked around the kids' schedules using all my skills, all my disciplines."
In other words, "it doesn't have to be binary," she summarized. "It's not that you are either on a tenure track or you aren't going anywhere. I like my life very much; it's interesting and diverse. Be flexible and learn new skills when that is required!"
Hannah is passionate about research and writing, and she emphasized the importance of networking and meeting publishers at conferences and events. "I'm never short of ideas for books to write; it's just a matter of how I can fit it in." Dr. Hunt's books, such as Clothed in the Body: Asceticism, the Body and the Spiritual in the Late Antique Era published by Ashgate, address a variety of topics related to Eastern Orthodox spirituality.
A lively discussion followed Dr. Hunt's presentation. "What's the balance between working and studying and having a family?" "How long did it take you to earn a PhD?" "How should I be looking ahead to the years after I have earned a Masters Degree?" "What can I do with a theology degree?"
Hannah encouraged each woman to decide on her priorities in light of her unique gifts and personality. "A humanities degrees gives you highly flexible skill set. You've learned to keep notes, records, do research, and teach. Whatever you decide to do, if you do it passionately and thoroughly, then it's good!"

Answers; these questions are easily searchable via Google, Bing, or any search engine. Type a question in on Yahoo's homepage search bar and find a solution. Google's interactive searchbar even does math and conversions for you. The skill itself of "Research" has become diluted in it's meaning.
Today I'm exposing a range of web 2.0 research tools you've probably never heard of. This world of online data is important for small business, website owners, college students, interviewees, and analysts.

SUGAR LAND (AP) – Roger Clemens will pitch to his oldest son Friday when he makes his second start for the independent Sugar Land Skeeters.
In a statement issued by the team on Wednesday, the seven-time Cy Young Award winner said having Koby Clemens as his catcher in an Atlantic League game against Long Island is "cool stuff."
"Having Koby, my oldest son, back there to catch a game will be great," he said in the team statement.
The 50-year-old Clemens threw 3 1-3 scoreless innings for Sugar Land on Aug. 25 in his first professional outing since 2007.
Koby Clemens has spent eight seasons in the minor leagues since he was drafted by Houston in 2005. He played alongside his father as a third baseman at Single-A Lexington in 2006 when Roger Clemens was preparing to join the Astros.
The 25-year-old catcher spent the 2012 season with Single-A Dunedin and Double-A New Hampshire in the Toronto Blue Jays' organization. He batted .299 with three homers and seven RBIs in 23 Single-A games and .218 with five homers and 17 RBIs in 41 Double-A games.
In the Skeeters' statement, the younger Clemens thanked the Toronto organization "for allowing me this opportunity to catch my pops in what should be a fun-filled event in Sugar Land."
Sugar Land is a Houston suburb. The scheduling of the father-son pairing was first reported by KRIV-TV of Houston.

Shakespeare's Swords hold training sessions, open to all, three days a week in the Levi Fox Hall (probably the finest fencing training venue in Britain) at King Edward VI School in Stratford upon Avon town centre.
The club has, without doubt, one of the best coaching teams available to fencing in the UK and has an impressive record, over a number of years, of members' achievements, both nationally and internationally to show for it.
At Shakespeare's Swords our aims are to offer the fencers challenge and a sense of achievement, to promote overall fitness and well being, to support school PE and Games and other activities, to support the academic process – Mens sana in corpore sano and to pass out safe, disciplined, competent fencers to University and local clubs.
Shakespeare's Swords is a regional centre of excellence for sabre fencing with a national reputation. We have world class coaches covering all weapons which means members can continue to the highest level of fencing. There are also opportunities for other activities including coaching, refereeing and armoury.
Welcome to the website of Shakespeare's Swords, the fencing club of King Edward VI School in Stratford upon Avon. The club was named in 1995 and registered with the British Fencing Association in 2001 and is open to all. Commencing with sabre, we teach the members épée and foil in the club as they want to learn. Starting with an introductory course which lasts for half a term, fencers then "pass out" into the main school club. Training continues on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays during term time. This is supplemented by training days held on INSET days, half term and school holidays. The club hosts school teams, matches and age-grouped events.

Corn and soybeans prices plunged in the wake of USDA's Acreage report, released Monday, June 30, that showed USDA expects soybean acreage—both planted and harvested—to shatter all records.
"We saw heavy selling right out of the gate," says Jonah Ford, senior analyst with Ceres Hedge in Schererville, Ind. "The November soybean contract could slide under $11 pretty easily." Ford was the commentator on a MGEX post-report press call.
"We may have seen a top in beans," says Ford. "This could be the beginning of a pretty steep downturn going into harvest."
That said, if widespread adverse weather develops, prices could move higher. But for now, Ford says, the only bullish case that can be made for soybeans and corn following this report is that prices in the livestock sectors are high, which should help support feed prices.

Soybean planted area for 2014 is estimated at a record-high 84.8 million acres, up 11% from last year. USDA's forecast is well above the average trade estimate of 82.154 million acres and above the range of estimates of 80.5 million to 84 million acres.
"Given where the market is standing and the weather conditions, this was the natural slide, everything went toward beans," says Chad Hart, agricultural economist with Iowa State University. "It's going to crush prices for awhile."
USDA also provided its first estimate of harvested acres at 84.1 million, up 11% from 2013. If realized, harvested acres would be a record high by more than 7.4 million acres, notes USDA.
"Even with drowned-out acres, we're talking well over 80 million acres harvested," says Hart.
Ending stocks of soybeans in 2015 could build rapidly. With a presumed average yield of 40 acres per bushel and 7 million to 8 million more harvested acres, producers could harvest 280 million bushels more than they ever have before, says Hart.
"That's a heck of a lot of additional bushels even with greater demand we have ever had," Hart adds.
USDA forecast planted acres in Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Dakota and Wisconsin all at record-highs.
Corn Crop Also Huge
Expected corn plantings of 91.6 million acres were down 4% from last year and the lowest planted acreage in the United States since 2010. This year's corn plantings, however, would still be the fifth largest on record since 1944.
"We have a big crop with a lot of carryover," says Ford. "But corn is already beat up."
Corn prices have been factoring in a huge 2014-15 corn crop for the past few months.
"I'm not in the $2 camp for corn," Ford adds.
Estimated corn plantings were slightly lower than the pre-report average trade estimate of 91.735 million acres.

This Is Your Brain and Body on Power
Clip: Season 46 | 4m 22s
Some people hunger for power, others are corrupted by it, and some are defined by it. But what does power do to our brains and bodies? Individuals with less power are more reliant on other people to meet their needs— so their brain pathways activate to help them understand the people they're relying on. In contrast, those that feel powerful have a more adaptive way of handling stress.

State not caught dozing on mattress issue
It would be easy to mock the notion of a state-created "mattress stewardship program," something the state Assembly is on the way to passing into law. The name seems to verge on self-parody, especially with so many serious issues up for debate in the state capital.
Though it may not rise to the level of new gun laws or deficit reduction, the mattress recycling bill is important for a variety of reasons.
Used mattresses take up a lot of space in landfills. Some places won't accept them at all. Many people have no idea what to do with a mattress they don't want anymore, so it ends up being discarded somewhere. All too often, "somewhere" seems to be under bridges, in wooded areas, waterways, etc.
Less than a year ago, a facility opened in the city of Bridgeport that breaks down old mattresses into component parts of foam, metal springs, cotton and wood and recycles the pieces. This bill would allow mattress recycling to happen on a much wider scale. With 350,000 mattresses discarded each year in the state, this would be significant change.
It won't come without cost. There stands to be $8 to $12 added to the price of each mattress at the time of purchase, with an incentive to be offered upon recycling, as well. At least some of the money from fees would go to recycling facilities such as Bridgeport's, which cost $500,000. With about a half-dozen employees working there now, that number could go up to 20 or 30 if the bill passes and the program comes to fruition.
Recycling household waste is a regular part of weekly routines these days. Setting aside bottles, cans, newspapers and cardboard to go out with the trash is something that took getting used to when it was introduced, but is now ingrained. But the potential for recycling of more complicated products has never been tapped.
It goes well beyond mattresses. The state wants to help residents get rid of old paint cans, which likely number in the millions across Connecticut as people finish home projects and have nothing to do with the leftover paint. Electronics waste is a major source of pollution, here and in poorer countries, and the state could do a much better job encouraging responsible recycling of these oft-discarded products.
These efforts by the state deserve support.

S233, Discontinued
Fast Firings Low-Fire Ceramics Porcelain and Stoneware
Paragon S-23-3
If you have difficulty loading deep kilns, we recommend the 22 ¼" deep S-23-3. If you need extra firing capacity in a short kiln, consider the 12-sided TnF-27-3.
During busy seasons when orders are backlogged, you will be grateful you own a dependable Paragon kiln such as the S-23-3. Studio owners call these kilns "real work horses."
Paragon studio kilns have withstood years of abuse in school environments. High school ceramics teachers fire these kilns unmercifully, without remorse. Yet the kilns keep going. People swear by them.
This kiln features a top row of 2" high blank wall bricks. Since the brick is without element grooves, it is less susceptible to damage during loading than a grooved brick.
The 10-sided S-23-3 comes in deluxe 3" thick sidewalls, lid and bottom. This is 20% thicker than the standard 2 ½" thick bricks. Since the S-23-3 is designed to fire porcelain and stoneware, it will easily handle low-fire ware.
The massive lid is easy to lift with Paragon's patented "LiteLid," which does away with cumbersome pulleys and cords and reduces lid weight to only several pounds of pressure. Most people can lift the lid with one hand. Unlike pulleys and weights, the LiteLid is self-contained on the kiln. No need to drill holes in the ceiling for pulleys. The LiteLid sharply reduces wear between the lid and top rim of firebrick. The truss and floating lid allow expansion of the lid. Ask competitors if their lid spring includes a truss and floating lid.
The 24" wide stand for 10 & 12-sided kilns supports the brick bottom with framing that is 4 ½" wide across the top of each side. The stand accommodates the Orton Vent Master. The stand is rock-steady, with 16-gauge frame and heavy 12-gauge legs.
A heavy galvanized steel base covers the reversible brick bottom completely. It folds up under the stainless case on all sides to strengthen the firing chamber. This is one more assurance that your Paragon kiln is built to last.
If you move your S-23-3 kiln out of the way when not in use, order an optional deluxe kiln stand with steel casters.
Something to consider if you already own a 12-sided kiln: Why purchase a 10-sided kiln such as the S-23-3 when you produce enough ware to fill a 12-sided kiln? It is because some ware fires more efficiently in a 10-sided kiln. Example: 10- and 12-sided kilns both fire four 10" wide bowls per shelf. When you own both sizes of kilns, you can choose the most efficient kiln for each size of ware. The 10-sided kiln is a good choice for those whose production depends on short firing cycles. Since 10-sided kilns are smaller than 12-sided, they can heat and cool faster. The 10-sided shelves are lighter than the 12-sided, and easier to lift.
Other Features
The Furniture Kit
The furniture kit consists of carefully selected fireclay shelves and posts for this particular model. When estimating the price of the kiln, include the cost of furniture. The furniture allows you to stack multiple layers of ware. Without it, you could fire only the ware that would fit on the kiln bottom.
Furniture Kit for Janus-23, S-23-3, SnF-23-3 & TnF-23-3
6 C-23H 1/2 Shelves, 20" round x ¾" thick
1 1/2" wide Square Posts, 8 of each -
1", 2", 3", 4", 5", 6" lengths

text: Tom Hopkins is credited with leading many of the strategic initiatives that have changed the way that The Sherwin-Williams Co. recruits, develops and promotes its employees, ultimately improving the caliber of talent and employee retention rates at the company. "If ever there was a person ideally suited to lead the human resource practice of an organization, large or small, Tom is that person," the nomination said. "He was born with great intellect, but his deep sense of fairness and compassion, his unwavering moral principles, his initiative and strong work ethic are products of his life experience." For instance, Mr. Hopkins tackled the issue of turnover at the company's more than 4,000 specialty paint stores and industrial coatings branches in part by designing and launching a management training program, recruiting on more than 400 college campuses. The 29-year Sherwin-Williams veteran also has worked to identify employees from within the organization who exhibit leadership potential and to develop a formal succession planning process. Sherwin-Williams' Emerging Leaders Initiative works in collaboration with Case Western Reserve University's Weatherhead School of Management to offer three-week intensive leadership courses. "Tom has, arguably, led Sherwin-Williams through the most turbulent manpower environment in the company's history," the nomination said. "During his tenure, we have become a significantly more global enterprise with a significantly more diverse work force. We have navigated an increasingly complex regulatory environment. We have embraced new technology and contained rapidly escalating labor and benefit costs. We have been a pioneer in work force safety and expanded our commitment to give back to the communities in which we live and work."

Mammals are the highest class of vertebrates and the female has mammary glands which secrete milk for the nourishment of young after birth. Mammals are warm-blooded and the majority of their body is covered with hair. Mammals give birth to live young (except the platypus and echidna, who lay eggs). They also have three middle ear bones.
Most mammals live solely on land, but there are several groups that have specifically evolved to exist solely in aquatic environments (dolphins and whales) one of which is the largest of all animals. Only one group has mastered the art of true flight (bats) although several have developed the ability to glide through tree tops.

Dr Judith Godden is a professional historian who is writing a commissioned history of Crown Street Women's Hospital. Her book Lucy Osburn, a lady displaced. Florence Nightingale's envoy to Australia (Sydney University Press) was short-listed for Australia's 2008 National Biography Award. She will have two books published this year: Australia's Controversial Matron: Gwen Burbidge and Nursing Reform (The College of Nursing, Sydney) and, with Carol Helmstadter, Nursing before Nightingale 1815-1890.
Her illustrated talk will be on her work in progress writing the first comprehensive history of Crown Street Women's Hospital in Surry Hills.

A familiar but satisfying political drama about the press secretary (Ryan Gosling) of a liberal presidential candidate (George Clooney, who also directed). What starts in idealism ends in betrayal, making the drama a metaphor for politics itself. Watch for Paul Giamatti and Philip Seymour Hoffman in a wonderful duel of supporting actors.
Starring: Ryan Gosling, George Clooney, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Paul Giamatti
Rating: Three and a half stars out of five
"Beware the Ides of March," the soothsayer tells Julius Caesar in the William Shakespeare play, and sure enough, that's the day when Caesar is stabbed in the back by his entourage. Shakespeare was concerned with the fall of kings, but it turns out that these things still happen today. Sometimes, you'll be "shocked" to learn, they even happen in the democratic, anti-authoritarian world of Western politics.
The difference is there's nothing very regal about them. The Ides of March, George Clooney's cynical drama about an American presidential election, is an entertainingly bleak story of backstabbing, betrayal, lies, corruption and sexual misconduct in the camp of a brightly idealistic politician who is running to be the next leader of the free world. Clooney -- who directed, stars and co-wrote the film -- is undoubtedly being ironic by saddling the tale with such a noble title, but the notion of perfidy is well placed.
"My religion is the constitution of the United States of America," are the first words of the story, intoned by Stephen Myers (Ryan Gosling in a performance of flinty intelligence), the idealistic but tough-minded press secretary of Gov. Mike Morris (Clooney.) The scene is the Ohio primary, to be held on March 15, and if Gov. Morris can carry this state, he has a good chance at winning the Democratic convention and thus moving on to the White House. This sense of removal from the main drama is part of what locates The Ides of March on the disreputable fringes of the American experience.
Myers is only testing the microphone for that night's debate, when Gov. Morris will say the same words and in the same way. It's a contrived rehearsal but also a brave step, and Clooney -- with his easy charm and handsome authority -- is nicely cast as a liberal politician who's not afraid to admit he's agnostic and intellectually capable of defending his position. Morris is an attractive candidate, but The Ides of March doesn't go much beyond his facade. This is a film about what happens backstage, and it isn't pretty.
The aide is depicted as a political whiz kid whose belief in his candidate runs neck and neck with his ability to push the opposition, or formulate policies -- requiring 18-year-olds to serve in the military -- that won't hurt politically (under 18-year-olds can't vote.) His mentor is Paul Zara (Philip Seymour Hoffman), Gov. Morris' campaign manager, a rumpled genius famous for his ability to talk anyone into anything.
As in classic America political dramas -- Gore Vidal's The Best Man, say, in which presidential candidate Henry Fonda must sacrifice his career for the good of the country -- it's politics rather than idealism that is important. Zara must make a deal with a sly power-broker, Senator Thompson (played with understated avarice by Jeffrey Wright), while Myers wrestles with the opponent, represented by his campaign manager, Tom Duffy (Paul Giamatti), who explains that Democrats aren't good campaigners because "they're afraid to get in the mud with the f--ing elephants."
The tug of war between Giamatti and Hoffman goes beyond the rough-and-tumble of Realpolitik. Watching the two premiere character actors of Hollywood gruff it out is one of the most satisfying pleasures of the fall movie season.
The crack in the edifice arrives when Myers -- a combination of intensity, intelligence, sex appeal and Ryan Gosling -- takes up with an intern named Molly (Evan Rachel Wood.) Her place in the story begins to unravel the carefully placed newspaper stories and behind-the-scenes bargains.
Politics is a game played on the surface and The Ides of March tells the story of the cost, sometimes to a man's soul, of maintaining that calm.
The movie is based on the Beau Willimon play Farragut North, but it never feels stagy or blocked in. Clooney has a professional ease as both an actor and a director, and his projects (which include Good Night, and Good Luck and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind) share a cautious liberalism and an appreciation for performance.
We've heard this story before -- the dirty underbelly of politics has become more exposed than its shiny surface -- but we never tire of it. Caesar died for his ambition. Today's politicians live for it.
