Hi everybody! I came up with a fantasy booking idea which I thought was pretty interesting and I had to document it. I've actually been trying to move out of the realm of fantasy booking and focus on other blog topics in the world of WWE/TNA. However, with Extreme Rules shaping up, I couldn't sit on this any longer. I'm expecting complaints about the use of certain guys and there
Hi everybody! I was reading the blogs and came across TheGreatOne's WM 30 booking challenge. I figured I'd throw my two cents out there because I'm always up for some good ol' fashioned fantasy booking. I tried to follow the rules as best I can, but there are a couple of wildcards I had to get in there. I know it's highly unlikely any of this will happen, but it
Hi Everybody! In the two previous parts of this series, I changed the outcomes of selected matches at the Royal Rumble and the Elimination Chamber in hopes of getting at a Wrestlemania card people will think is better than the actual one. Part one didn't really do a lot and it seems part two has fallen on deaf ears. Oh well, try, try again. In the third and final part, I'll use the actual

Part two could
Hi Everybody! It feels like CM Punk cutting that promo on The Rock was such a long time ago. WWE had a chance to do something really big in 2013 leading up to an incredible card at Wrestlemania 29. Instead, they played it safe and we end up with a very "in-the-box†card. In this three part series I will attempt to give three versions of 2013 which would have led us to three different Wrestlemania

MOST PRODUCERS THINK their involvement in crane operator training refers to large gantry cranes or mobile pickers used for plant repairs. But in the next few months, they may need to change their safety programs. Producers who use truck-mounted articulating cranes to deliver and position precast elements at jobsites should review OSHA's new rules for Cranes and Derricks in Construction—29 CFR 1926, Subpart CC. The new rules went into effect in November 2010.
This update was the first major comprehensive review of the crane standard in more than two decades. OSHA reports that 89 deaths associated with crane mishaps occurred annually at construction sites in the years leading up to the new rule. The new standards would save about 21 lives and reduce crane accidents by about 190 per year, OSHA says.
A major focus of the new rules was on truck-mounted cranes, which were not prevalent when the crane ruling was first written. OSHA has adopted the same approach to the operation of the articulating boom cranes as with large cranes. The new rules mandate operator certification. In fact, all crane operators must be certified by November 2014. Producers who use articulating truck-mounted cranes must prepare for this deadline.
If your drivers/operators are required to place the element on a specific place at a jobsite, they must be certified. OSHA says that crane operators who deliver common construction commodities such as drywall, bagged products, or supplies to stockyards or staging areas could be exempt. Most safety experts advise that all employees who operate articulating cranes become certified.
The OSHA rules also outline that operators must be certified for the specific type of articulating crane they use. The certification procedures are for articulating boom cranes, articulating boom loaders, articulating boom cranes with winch, and articulating boom cranes and boom loaders. Operators seeking certification must pass a written and practical test for each crane type.
The National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCC-CO) has taken the lead in this matter. NCCCO has a unique relationship with OSHA. Operators who have passed NCCCO certification programs are recognized by OSHA as verified operators.
Most producers find it advantageous to offer their operators review courses before taking the exams. Overton Safety Training Inc. is an accredited provider of the NCCCO Preparation Classes for articulating cranes and at least 23 other specific hoisting operations and equipment types. Drawing on this experience, Overton recently published a training course for members of the National Concrete Burial Vault Association.
Visit the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators at www.nccco.org. For more on preparatory training courses, visit Overton Safety Training at www.overtonsafety.com.
New in 2013, the World of Concrete Educational Program will offer an eight-hour workshop on how to teach safety to articulating crane operators. Participants will be qualified and authorized as in-house instructors to teach rules and regulations for the safe use of articulating cranes, as they prepare their operators to pass the NCCCO Articulating Boom Crane Operator National Certification exams.
Students will also receive a complete Trainer's Kit ($695 value) containing a Trainers Manual, 10 120-page workbooks, a PowerPoint presentation, record forms, and practice quizzes. Students can sign up to take the NCCCO National Certification written exam and the NCCCO practical exam. Participants successfully completing both exams will receive NCCCO Operator Certification cards to meet the federal crane requirements. Visit www.worldofconcrete.com.

DEF Supplies
One year after the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 2010 heavy duty truck emission standards mandating near-zero levels of NOx (nitrogen oxide) and PM (particulate matter) went into effect, auto parts retail shelves, private fleet terminals and truck...
One year after the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 2010 heavy duty truck emission standards mandating near-zero levels of NOx (nitrogen oxide) and PM (particulate matter) went into effect, auto parts retail shelves, private fleet terminals and truck stop fueling plazas are stocked with expanding inventories of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). Industry analysis finds that there will be more than enough DEF to operate 2010 and 2011 selective catalytic reduction (SCR)-equipped trucks.
Industry reports show nearly 300 DEF bulk storage installations in place at truck stops and fleet terminals. More than 150 new bulk tank installations (tank storage volumes between 1,000 to 4,000 gallons) were projected to have come online across North America by mid-2011.
To meet DEF demand that is projected to reach 350 million gallons by 2015, high-volume truck stops are quickly moving from 1,000- to 2,000-gallon bulk tanks to larger 10,000-gallon underground tanks.
Pilot and Flying J truck stops will increase the number of fuel lanes dispensing DEF from 68 to 1,000 by this October. TravelCenters of America and Petro Stopping Centers are rolling out new "1+1" single-dispensers that simultaneously fuel trucks with diesel and DEF, authorizing both transactions and payment, and eliminating the need for drivers to move trucks for both fills.
Starting this year, the new generation of clean diesel technology for off-road engines and equipment, known as Tier 4, will make its way onto the construction and industrial jobsites and farmlands around the country.
Tier 4 compliance dates are based on the size of engine (hp and /kW-hr) and other factors. Tier 4 regulations allow for an interim step to give equipment manufacturers flexibility in delivering substantial PM reduction followed by substantial NOx reduction.
Beginning in 2014, final Tier 4 standards will require near-zero emissions or 99 percent NOx reduction and 96 percent PM reduction. In concert with Tier 4 off-road mainstream applications will be introduction of clean diesel technologies and emissions standards for marine and railroad applications.
While the EPA mandate for Tier 4 off-road emissions compliance applies only to new engines and equipment, states focused on immediate air quality improvements, like California, are developing programs to accelerate adoption of low emitting new equipment and retrofits - most of which will demand ready supplies DEF.
Tier 4 impacts the work horses of mobile power units. Different than on-highway, this machinery is jobsite bound and used primarily in land grading, construction, road building, demolition, mining, farming and other industrial applications. Productivity is not measured in miles per gallon but in reliability and hours per gallon.
Fueling and fluid refilling are primarily handled onsite by mobile refuelers and fluid distributors, called "wet hosers," or at home terminals. The supply chain for DEF is significantly different than on-highway applications.
However, like on-highway, fuel cost and supply are key factors and rising fuel costs require cost containment.
For the first time, most off-road equipment will incorporate emissions control technologies - either exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) or SCR. Applications that are best suited for SCR include airport ground support equipment, quarry trucks, mobile and aerial cranes and military vehicles where lightly loaded engines idle for long periods or have intermittent duty cycles and construction (up to 750 horsepower).
These applications require reliable power over short periods of time but do not generate enough heat to passively regenerate or clean diesel particulate filters (DPF), leaving them more susceptible to clogging up.
Also ideal for SCR technology are high-powered tractors for agriculture, forage harvesters and combines above 100 horsepower. Some equipment manufacturers report fuel consumption with SCR-equipped engines are running 19 percent below equipment industry averages without SCR.

My mil does the same thing in regards to who the babes look like. She won't ever say dd or ds has one of my traits. The kids are tall, so she says to dh, "well your dad was tall", i'm like "hello, i'm 6'0, maybe they get it from ME!" Grr. Their hair color comes from some distant relative on dh's side, their eye color, everything. She just can't stand that the kids look so much like me. My son looks exactly like my younger brother, but apparantly he doesn't, he looks just like dh's great grandpas, uncles brothers , cousin or something. Its crazy.
