Isn't this the homeless guy that she got a hotel with who she said was not in much better shape than she is? If you're in a situation like this with one child that you are barely hanging onto, why put your son at greater risk. At this point, I'm wondering how much worse the abusive husband could be than what is going on now. Getting a hotel with and getting pregnant by a homeless ex-con addict within days of knowing him. I know we all make mistakes, but this is huge and very risky to her baby who is getting dragged along for the ride.
OP, since you're continuing the pregnancy, you really need to get your feet on the ground. Swallow your pride and go back home to your mother. Forget that she disrespects you. Do what you have to do for your son. Stop dragging him from state to state from one unreliable friend to another.

WEIRTON - A 32-year-old Weirton resident is being held in the Northern Regional Jail on two counts of domestic abuse, hostage taking, child abuse and resisting arrest, authorities report.
Andrew Alexander Drosdow, 3716 Marlamont Way, was arrested Sunday after city police responded to calls of a domestic disturbance.
Upon arriving at the scene, Hancock County Prosecutor Jim Davis said officers "observed a female who was obviously injured, bleeding."
Article Photos
Inside the residence they encountered Drosdow, who Davis said appeared to have been drinking and was dangling an infant over his head in an attempt to avoid arrest, thereby putting the child at risk.
"He (allegedly) picked a 4-month-old baby up and held the baby over his head," Davis said. "They were able to get hold of him and get the baby safely away."
Drosdow allegedly spit blood and mucous onto the responding officers, he said.
Additionally, Davis said a second woman at the scene appeared to have been struck in the face.
Drosdow is being held in Northern Regional Jail on $216,500 bond.

Location: Argentina, Uruguay
The term pampero itself was introduced by Spanish colonizadores of the Rio de la Plata area. The Spanish colonists were battered by a strong, dry, cold and blustery wind coming from the interior of the continent, the Pampas (prairies) of Argentina. However, the pampero effects are turning milder and less vigorous towards the north.
Synoptically the pampero is caused by a low situated above Patagonia or the Falkland Islands. Coming from the S Pacific the cold front of this depression has to pass the southern Andes losing much of its moisture on the western flanks of the mountain range. The relatively dry and cold air mass clashes into the northerly warm and humid air situated across the Argentine plains north of Patagonia. The situation is very similar to the Great Plains of North America. The cold, dry upper level air and the warm and moist air near the ground eventually trigger a line of supercell thunderstorms, some 50 to 200 km (50 to 150 mi) ahead and parallel of the cold front - the squall line known as Pampero. And yes, even tornadoes are known to occur. The Pampero is usually followed by the warm Zondawind
The Pampero phenomenon did even find its way into the world literature. In 1868 Jules Verne described the Pampero in his novel 'In Search of the Castaways' much better and more fascinating than we meteorologists can do:

Members of the State Senate reconvened this morning to work out details on a new state budget, while the Assembly will likely not be back until Thursday when they're expected to address controversial items including tax cuts and a hike in the state's minimum wage. NY1's Zack Fink filed the following report.
It's been several days since state leaders announced a deal on the $135 billion state budget. But if a deal were in place, the bills would have been printed: Not all of them have.
"The entire budget consists of 10 bills, one of which we passed last week. I believe there are another three we are passing today. So there are still six more bills including most of the controversial items which have yet to come," said State Senator Michael Gianaris.
The most controversial items include tax cuts and a hike in the state's minimum wage. But some signals seemed to get crossed over what has been agreed upon and what hasn't.
"In some ways it reminds of those years. I served in the legislature. I think the biggest challenge is that many important decisions are being made, some of them not directly related to the process but being rolled into the budget. I think we should put a greater emphasis on transparency so the public knows what's going on," said State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli.
The senate came up for a Sunday voting session, but the Assembly did not. A spokesman for Speaker Sheldon Silver issued a statement saying negotiations are ongoing.
"Again, they made their schedule known later in the week. They wanted to come back in Thursday. We thought it was important to get it done as quickly as possible," said State Senator and Independent Democratic Conference Leader Jeffrey Klein.
Lawmakers had wanted to break in time for the Easter and Passover holidays. Passover begins Monday night. Silver is an Orthodox Jew, as are a handful of New York City Assembly members.
"If it affects members then they should respect their religion and do whatever they have to do. I am a Catholic. Today's Palm Sunday and I am here working," said State Senator and Republican Conference Leader Tom Libous.
State senators are expected to reconvene Monday morning at 11 a.m. before heading back to their districts Monday night, possibly returning midweek to finish up the budget.
The Assembly will not even be back in Albany until Thursday.
Both houses technically have until April 1 to pass the budget.

UF stands out at Florida Relays
Published: Friday, April 5, 2013 at 11:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, April 6, 2013 at 12:19 a.m.
The second day of the Pepsi Florida Relays was as thrilling as the first, as the collegiate and professional ranks joined the high school contingent at Percy Beard Track. Friday saw two Pepsi Florida Relays records fall, as well as a Percy Beard Track Record.
Five Gators won event titles Friday, including freshman Marija Vucenovic (Sremska Mitrovica, Serbia) who came out Friday and won the second meet of her career in as many tries. Vucenovic threw a collegiate-leading 55.43m/181-10 to claim the women's javelin title, besting the runner-up by 17 feet.
Vucenovic was joined in the winner's circle by Mark Parrish (Tampa, Fla.) and Sean Obinwa (Tampa, Fla.), who also became collegiate leaders with their events Friday. Both Gators ran collegiate-leading times in the 3,000-meter steeplechase and 800 meters, respectively. Parrish finished in a personal-best 8:42.38 to win the steeple title in a new NCAA-leading time. Obinwa turned in the fastest 800 meters in the nation in 2013, finishing in a new PR of 1:47.66.
"I'm very, very pleased with all of their performances," Florida head coach Mike Holloway said. "I thought Mark did a wonderful job coming out and running a five-second personal best, leading the whole way. Mark is on a mission. He's still stung from missing the national meet last year by .01. Marija, I mean, that's why we recruited her. She's the best javelin thrower in the NCAA, and she's proven that so far. We're really pleased with her improvement so far."
Also claiming victories for the Orange and Blue were sophomores Dedric Dukes (Miami, Fla.) and Taylor Burke (Medina, Ohio). Dukes ran a wind-aided 20.38 to take home the men's 200 meters title Friday, while Burke participated in a jump off to win the women's high jump with her mark of 1.76m/5-9.25.
"It's the Florida Relays, there's a lot of athletes, a lot of parents, a lot of fans. I'm just really pleased that the meet ran very well and very smoothly over the first two days," Holloway commented. "The weather has been a little bit quirky, but overall the performances have been absolutely phenomenal. I'm really pleased with the way the meet has been run and the performances of all the athletes. My athletes have had a really great weekend also so far."

Rev. Robinson turned to Psalms 128:1-6, "The Commander, Duck". God has always required us to lead our families in Godly ways. A real commander has to have a faithful walk and be the center of his faith. Most of all, he must fear the Lord and trust not in material needs but have proper circles. Most important is the need to hear the Lord when He speaks.
A real commander has a fruitful work. When you do, God will bless your finances, your future, and your family. You have to make God your center and act as He instructs. Your family life is like a vine that when nourished will grow and put forth fruit.
A real commander has a family that worships. To begin, the dad is saved! He has to get serious and have his relationship right with God. He must be spiritual and lead his children in prayer and to church always. Men- You need to lead them to the Lord! Don't wait on someone else to do it but you do it.

Insurance For Cats
PetFirst's cat insurance can help offset veterinary bills and allow you to use your heart and not your wallet when making decisions about your cat's care. Our cats are more than just pets to us; they are members of the family and deserve to be treated as such. Our cat insurance plans allow you to put your cat first and protect you from being caught off guard by an unforeseen illness or accident.
Veterinary medicine has grown due to technological advances and increased availability of treatments, which allows us to provide better vet care for our cats for illnesses or injuries that previously weren't treatable. However, this has caused veterinary costs to rise significantly, making pet insurance for your cat such a smart decision.
Did You Know:
- The average vet bill for a cat is more than $500
- The average cat visits the vet more than two times per year*
- 76% of veterinarians would like to see more cat owners with pet insurance*
- You could more than pay for an entire year of cat insurance with reimbursement from one incident
If this is your first cat insurance policy, our pet insurance buyer's guide will give you insight into the common considerations you should make to find the right policy for you. If you have any questions or feedback, please contact us today and check out our healthy cat tips and The Petfirst blog for information on how to take better care of your cat.

I just bought these gearless tuners. Easy to install, instructions were very good. I installed all 6 tuners in less than 60 minutes. String changing is fast and very easy. These tuners are rated 40:1 but I think the ratio is much less than that. I would like to see the threads on the machine shaft much finer which would make the tuning ratio much higher. I tune with a strobe tuner and for me the finer the tuning increments the better. Although the stated ratio is 40:1 I can easily pass the note and have to back up to compensate all within less than one turn. I would like to have to turn 3 to 4 revolutions per semitone to get the accuracy I am looking for. Overall a great product but I want much finer threads.
I LOVE these tuners. I wish there were another discount for orders of more than 3 sets. At 10+ sets or something. Anyway, so you know, you can fit a 0.70 string in these (as pictured here).
The Steinberger gearless tuners are very fine (the finest in gear) tuners for us who want to tune up our guitars precise, a bit of a downside to me was the fact that it was impossible to get Stewmac sending me 7 of them for my 7 string.. it's like going into a bar and only be allowed to order 6 beer.
Recieved the Black Steinberger Gearless Tuners within 7 days of ordering but just got the time today to refit my "76" Firebird. The instructions are not totally clear and/or complete but I am mechanically inclined so no biggy after a little tweak here and there. Difficulty for DIY 6 of 10. It's the RESULTS that are A-Freakin'-Mazing....this headstock heavy guitar and those danged stock banjo tuners made this guitar less than an enjoyment to play much less restring for the past 30+ years. Today I have a Brand New Guitar!!!! Stupid easy to tune, no more strap over the upper rear bout to hold the guitar in place and I believe the sustain has improved because of the increased down angle as the strings leave the nut. By all means if you own a Firebird put these tuners on it like yesterday BTW Steinberger ya'll need to put a hex key in the package.
Very nice locking tuners. Not so heavy as they appear. Will increase the downward angle at which the string passes over the nut, which translates to increased downward string pressure, etc. This is because the string passes into the tuner at the surface level of the guitar headstock rather than high on the end of a post. This design aspect can be of interest to those who seek to avoid the use of string trees in their project guitar. However, since the guitar's string is drawn centrally down into the tuner, rather than offset around the side of a post, those with existing tuner holes and strings trees may find that their strings don't align as preferred. Similarly, obstruction of a passing string can occur on some 3x3 tuner arrangements, where string clearance was assured exclusively using a wrap around tuner.
As for the fit and finish, the black Steinbergers seem to have a nicer machined surface finish than the chrome, which leave something to be desired for chrome tuners costing as much as these do. Installation requires disassembly and re-assembly of each tuner, and the use of instructions to do this. If you can read you'll be fine. The photos are helpful. The instructions, however, don't account for why four of the six tuners have two thin plastic washers each, and two of the six tuners have one thick plastic washer each? A single plastic washer is what the installation instructions account for. No matter, though, since they all work fine.
The Steinbergers use no screws to secure them, and so spare your headstock of any additional screw holes. Although a small hole is created for the stabilizing pin, this hole is covered up by the tuner or by whatever tuner you might prefer to use if for any reason you opt to change these out.
In short, the Steinbergers are a fine choice for applications where no string trees are desired, and where string trees and tuner holes line up as you expect and prefer. I rate the chrome version four out of five stars on account that the machine finish on this is not to the quality or degree one might expect of a tuner costing so much. I will say that the black machine finish appears appreciatively higher in degree quality than the chrome, and for this I would rate that tuner five out of five stars. I have no experience to comment on the gold finish.
I was recently having tuning issues with my USA Fender Telecaster and discovered that two of the factory tuners had gone bad. I wanted a change and went with the Steinberger Gearless Tuners. They were easy to install per the included Stewmac Instructions. Installed a new set of strings and the tuning fun started. I done a quick tune and run through the intonation and she's never played better and she stays in tune. This are very tuners and give your guitar a unique look. Thanks Stewmac for offering another great product.
I used these tuners in a headless conversion. The plastic washers that come with them appear to be something like glass filled nylon. When approaching pitch, and especially on the wound strings, the tuners were hard to turn and have a lot of stick-slip friction. For applications where you can really grab each knob, it may not be as much of an issue, but for my application where the tuners are in a shallow cavity through the body of the guitar, smoother operation is preferred. To solve this, I made a set of Teflon washers to stack on top of the nylon washers, and that made a huge difference in the smoothness of tuning. I am not sure why anyone would use these tuners in a solidbody electric guitar, as there are so many good options for locking tuners that have a high accuracy. On the E and B strings, I usually have to do the tuning operation twice, due to string stretch. For banjos and 'unique' creations, though, these tuners are really cool and effective. For instance, I really enjoy the feel of a headless guitar, with the tuners located behind the bridge. It makes for a very well balanced instrument. The pictured TOM-style guitar has been chambered, and weighs a svelte 5.8 lbs. You can hardly feel that weight over your shoulder, and the neck does not 'dive' at all.
Rachetées à un utilisateur (Gibson Firebird) et montées sur une Samick FA2 Greg Bennett, plus de sustain, accord qui tient parfaitement.
I recently found a Gibson Firebird reissue. Love it but it didn't stay in tune. One o' my friends suggested Steinberger Tuners. Got em in Black. Well they were easy to install but The accuracy of these puppy's is awesome. And you can change your strings in like 5 minutes. Love these suckers. Best move I made for my beloved firebird.
Great tuners! For over 20 years I have played Irish tenor banjo tuned like a violin GDAE and always had problems tuning due to the very fine tolerances and gearing ratio of standard banjo tuners. I am also a guitarist and I teach Irish fiddle professionally here in Melbourne Australia. No problem tuning these but tenor banjo with standard pegs always was difficult before I discovered Steinbergers. My dream came true when I purchased an old Vega tenor that had been fitted with Steinberger tuners. I searched around and was told Stewart McDonald sold the tuners I was looking for. These are the next generation of banjo tuners. Buy them now and get them fitted. You will love them.

"When Children Are Present"
The city of Henderson Public Works Department will begin replacing existing school speed limit signs in March of 2011. Existing signs specify the exact times that school zone speed limits are in effect; the new signage will not have specific times but will instead read "When Children Are Present." Work to change out approximately 500 school zone signs will begin at Taylor Elementary School, Brown Middle School and Basic High School in the east of Henderson and then continue to the west. The project is anticipated to be completed by December of 2011.
After the initial project cost of $20,000, the city estimates an annual savings of up to $10,000 in sign maintenance costs, incurred when changes in school bell times necessitated replacing hundreds of signs each year. Additionally, the city will have more flexibility in the placement of school crossing guards and traffic enforcement.
Research data indicates motorists drive slower through school zones marked by, "When Children Are Present" signs, resulting in increased pedestrian safety in school zones.

I got the idea from Pinterest. The original blog post for this idea is here: Baby Stats Subway Art.
This is one of those projects that I REALLY wanted to do, and even had it on my own priority list of projects. When a particular challenge came up, I knew it was time to get these baby stats wall art projects done for my kids.
The toughest part of this project was getting the power-point print to fit on the piece of wood I purchased. Fortunately for you I have attached the power point file, links to the types of font I used, and some tips throughout the step-by-step process I took to create these cool stats-art for your own children.
If you've got a handle on power point, and your computer savy enough to download new fonts, hopefully this piece of art work will be a cake-walk for you and all you have to do is type in your child's birth stats and enter the info.
If you don't know power point well, I've tried to make the instructable as clear and simple as possible, BUT, you may run into a snag or two where I assumed that the person reading this knows how to use power point, "enough to get by."
Either way, I hope you can use this instructable to get your own baby's birth statistics done.
This would also look VERY cool as a laser-cut acrylic edge lit sign :)
Welcome -
If you are not a "Pro" member, the site will not let you download a file.
If you would like to become a "Pro" member, and you specifically came to this site for this file, email me and I will see what I can do.
Thanks for visiting.
I wanted to make it as easy as possible for someone else to re-create.

Camps open up in three days (in the case of Anaheim and Los Angeles – they are already open) and hockey poolies are very interested in the kids that will be in camp with a legitimate shot at a roster spot. This week (as well as last), we'll analyze the odds of a rookie cracking the lineup and what kind of impact we can expect to see in the campaign ahead.
Anaheim Ducks
If Teemu Selanne does not return (and he is already going to miss much of training camp), there is a spot open on the wing on a scoring line. Drew Miller, Ryan Carter and Bobby Ryan – all rookies – will compete for it. Indications are that Ryan will be given a year of seasoning in the AHL, so barring an eye-opening performance in camp by him, the job will go to Miller or Carter. While Miller (brother of Buffalo's Ryan Miller) has a little more upside, Carter should not be counted out. Carter was never drafted and the Ducks always seem to nurture diamonds in the rough like that (Andy McDonald, Dustin Penner).
Calgary Flames
One of Brent Krahn and Curtis McElhinney will do battle for the right to back up Miikka Kiprusoff. Krahn has the inside track, but his injury history could prove costly – McElhinney is coming off a great AHL campaign, which was made possible by another one of Krahn's injuries.
Dustin Boyd also has a real shot at a depth role down the middle. Coach Mike Keenan could go either way with this, so pay attention to training camp – Boyd has fairly high upside.
Chicago Blackhawks
There will be no rookies of any consequence here. Oh, wait a minute – Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane.
Toews is a lock for the second-line center position and he is probably for the first-line job. The 'Hawks believe Kane will also make the team and if so, they won't be putting him on the third or fourth line – that's for certain. Toews should be a 60-point player this year and could flirt with 70. Kane likely won't be far behind.
Another rookie, Jack Skille, turned pro at the end of last season and impressed mightily during his brief AHL stint. He has an outside shot at cracking the lineup, but will likely be brought along much more slowly than the other two.
Colorado Avalanche
T.J. Hensick is ready for the NHL. The only problem is – the Avs are full up front. That being said, his offensive skills are better than most of the regulars that are currently on the team – and not just fourth liners either, I'm talking about players such as Marek Svatos and Andrew Brunette. His creativity and shiftiness with the puck are elite. Will the Avs wait one more year for him? Likely, but his performance in camp could change their minds.
Columbus Blue Jackets
Under new GM Scott Howson and coach Ken Hitchcock, the Jackets have developed a philosophy that will see the team wait longer for their prospects develop before bringing them into the NHL.
That being said, both Derrick Brassard and Jakub Voracek have their full attention in development camp, lighting the lamp with regularity. Another three weeks of this stuff and you may see both youngsters sneak onto the squad.
The one player who did have a real shot at making the team, blue-chip defenseman Kris Russell, has been less than stellar so far. The team needs a power-play quarterback, but they won't just hand the job over to Russell – he needs to earn it. Keep a close watch on all three of these youngsters.
Dallas Stars
Nicklas Grossman could make this team, as could 25-year-old Vadim Khomitski. While Grossman has been the one who was projected to be a possible power-play quarterback, it has been Khomitski who has impressed offensively since coming to North America. His seven points in nine games for Iowa (AHL) are almost as many as Grossman posted in 67 games. Whichever youngster makes the squad (my money is on Khomitski) will play on the second power-play unit.
Detroit Red Wings
Igor Grigorenko will finally make his long-awaited appearance in North America this week in camp. The Wings (and Detroit media) are very cautious with their expectations of this former blue-chipper, but I'm quite confident that you will see him in a Red Wings uniform come October. Coach Mike Babcock brought Jiri Hudler along very slowly last season, so there is the danger that Grigorenko will get the same treatment. However, he is older than Hudler was and the fact that he can go back to Russia if he does not make the team should ensure that he has the opportunity to earn a second-line role.
Edmonton Oilers
Robert Nilsson does not qualify as a rookie, but he is assured of a spot on the team. Andrew Cogliano and Rob Schremp are both rookies who will battle for the third-line center position. Both pivots are high-end offensive talents and whoever wins should sport a 40-point season right off the bat. Down the road, both players have the potential for 80 or more points and should be selected in your keeper league drafts this month (if they are not owned already).
Los Angeles Kings
With all their new acquisitions this summer, the only rookie that will crack the lineup this year is Jack Johnson. The hard-hitting rearguard will eventually develop into a 60-point player, but after seeing his cup of coffee at the end of last season it looks like he will be a few years away from those levels.
Minnesota Wild
James Sheppard is a big and strong centerman whom the Wild have secretly penciled in for their first line. I say 'secretly' because the team clearly does not want to put any pressure on him, but they are keeping their fingers crossed in hopes that he earns the spot in training camp. He will audition between Marian Gaborik and Pavol Demitra – you can see the potential there. Sheppard is impressing more and more with every month that passes.
Right wing Petr Kalus also impressed during a nine-game stint in Boston last season and has picked up where he left off in Minnesota's development camp. The 20-year-old sniper could sneak onto the third line with some strong play.
Nashville Predators
Pekka Rinne is the only rookie with a real hope of making the team this year – and that hope is not as strong as you would think. His two-year contract is one-way…next season. This season, however, his contract is a two-way deal. Meanwhile, Dan Ellis signed a one-way deal for $500,000. That would give Ellis a slight edge, despite his poor season in the minors last year.
Phoenix Coyotes
Coyote fans are champing at the bit to see this kid play – Peter Mueller. Big, strong and skilled, Mueller is not only expected to make the team, but he is expected to anchor the first line and produce 55 points at the very least in his rookie year. A Calder Trophy favorite, Mueller should be high on everyone's list.
Alexei Kaigorodov was a victim of the numbers game in Ottawa a year ago, but that won't be the case this time around. The 'Yotes traded Mike Comrie to get him, so expect him to make the team and put up 30 or 40 points as a rookie. He has the skill to do more in the NHL, but let's see how he does in this first full season before we decide if he fits the second- or third-line center mold. Martin Hanzal is another pivot who has size and skill, but would be best served with one year of AHL service under his belt. Long term though he could be a good one.
Daniel Carcillo proved he belonged at the end of last year. A potential Sean Avery-clone, Carcillo will have a real shot at leading the NHL in penalty minutes. He'll also contribute 30 points, which makes him a viable option in many fantasy formats.
San Jose Sharks
Similar to Calgary, the Sharks will let a pair of rookies do battle for the right to become the backup goaltender. Thomas Greiss is coming off an impressive 43-game stint in the AHL in which he posted solid numbers…but he's just 21. Dimitri Patzold is 24, but his AHL numbers are far inferior. Give the edge to Greiss on this one, but training camp will definitely decide.
There is a depth spot on the wing available and while Devin Setoguchi is likely next on the depth chart, the Sharks will likely give the job to Mike Iggulden. The big, undrafted power forward has shored up his defensive game while improving his offensive numbers at the same time in Worcester last season. He is ready to make the jump and is better suited for a depth role. Setoguchi could use a lot of ice time – something he would not get in San Jose this year.
St. Louis Blues
In Eric Johnson, the Blues feel that they have the best up-and-coming defenseman since Chris Pronger. If so, then that means Johnson will be six or seven years of developing before he pops offensively. Indications are, however, that his offensive game is further along than Pronger's was at that age. Besides – the Blues lack a power-play quarterback, so Johnson will have every opportunity to shine.
Vancouver Canucks
While Jannik Hansen, Jozef Balej and Alexander Edler could all make the squad this year, none of them will be used in an important role and none of them will tally even 25 points this season. Well…perhaps I'm being too harsh – Balej has offensive talent and if he can steal a role on the first or second line, he could surprise. Don't count on it though.

Analysis of Children's Gait
Both clinical gait analysis and finite element modeling are used to study forces on the knee joint.
Our group is very interested in the effects of pediatric obesity on the development of knee disorders in kids and osteoarthritis later in life. We have used magnetic resonance images to generate three-dimensional finite element models and to characterize localized injuries in the proximal tibia. To define the boundary conditions, we have collaborated with the Ithaca College Movement Analysis Lab to perform gait analysis of children of varying ages and sizes.

Thomas J. Dorgan
Thomas Aloysius Dorgan (April 29, 1877 – May 2, 1929), also known as Tad Dorgan, was an American cartoonist who signed his drawings as Tad. He is known for his cartoon panel Indoor Sports and the many words and expressions he added to the language.[1]
Early life[edit]
Dorgan was born in San Francisco on April 29, 1877.[2] He was one of at least 10 children – six sons and four daughters – of Thomas J. and Anna Dorgan.[3] His brother John L. "Ike" Dorgan (born April 1879) was publicity manager for the Madison Square Garden, and his brother Richard W. "Dick" Dorgan (born September 1892) was an illustrator and cartoonist.
Polytechnic High School teachers Rosey Murdoch and Maria Van Vieck recognized and encouraged Tad's talent as an artist. When he was 13 years old, he lost the last three fingers of his right hand in an accident with a factory machine. He took up drawing for therapy. A year later at the age of 14 he joined the art staff of the San Francisco Bulletin.
Strips and panels[edit]
He created his first comic strip, Johnny Wise, for the San Francisco Chronicle in 1902. By 1905 he was working in New York City at the New York Journal as a sports writer and cartoonist.[1] Jack Dempsey described him as "the greatest authority on boxing."
In addition to his work as a sports journalist, Dorgan did a humor feature, "Daffydills". His dog cartoons, including Judge Rummy, evolved into the strip Silk Hat Harry's Divorce Suit. This was accompanied by a one-panel gag series called Indoor Sports which became his main feature, along with an occasional Outdoor Sports.
Dorgan is generally credited with either creating or popularizing such words and expressions as "dumbbell" (a stupid person); "for crying out loud" (an exclamation of astonishment); "cat's meow" and "cat's pajamas" (as superlatives); "applesauce" (nonsense); "cheaters'" (eyeglasses); "skimmer" (a hat); "hard-boiled" (a tough person); "drugstore cowboy" (loafers or ladies' men); "nickel-nurser" (a miser); "as busy as a one-armed paperhanger" (overworked); and "Yes, we have no bananas," which was turned into a popular song.
In the New York Times obituary, he was bracketed with George Ade and Ring Lardner as a popularizer of "a new slang vernacular." His obituary also credited him as the originator of "Twenty-three, Skidoo," "solid ivory," "Dumb Dora," "finale hopper," "Benny" for hat, and "dogs'" for shoes.[1] W. J. Funk, of the Funk and Wagnall's dictionary company, placed Dorgan at the top of the list of the ten "most fecund makers of American slang."[4]
Dorgan was erroneously credited with coining the usage of the phrase "hot dog" in reference to sausage (see "Hot dog: Etymology").[5][6] Although he is credited for the phrase "hot dog" it is widely disputed. Historians have been unable to find the particular cartoon that coined this phrase, despite (or perhaps because of) Dorgan's enormous body of work.[7]
Life in Great Neck[edit]
Tad Dorgan and his wife, Izole M., lived in a Great Neck, New York house valued at $75,000. They had no children, but they raised two Chinese children to adulthood. Dorgan retired from attending sporting events in the early 1920s because of poor health, and a heart ailment kept him at home for the last eight years of his life, but he continued to produce comics until his death. He died in Great Neck of heart disease, hastened by pneumonia.[1] Izole Dorgan, a writer before she married, was the vice-president of the National Doll and Toy Collectors Club. After Tad's death, she started a successful business manufacturing doll furniture.[8]
Dorgan's first book collection was Daffydills, published by Cupples & Leon in 1911. This was followed by several Indoor Sports collections.
Tad Dorgan was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2007 in the category of "Observer"; that is, print and media journalists, publishers, writers, historians, photographers, and artists.[9]

What could happen. Cruise contracts generally allow operators quite a bit of latitude in responding to unexpected low water (and also for high water that prevents boats from passing under the lowest river bridges.) Clearly, if water conditions cause your trip to be canceled, nobody can make you "whole," in the tort law standard I like to apply. Instead, tour companies have taken a variety of positions:
-- Credit refund. Instead of cash, some operators give you only a voucher toward a future trip. For many of you, that's enough, but if you were on a "once in a lifetime" event, it really doesn't work.
-- Substitute boat. Some operators have switched from a large new riverboat to a smaller, older one that could navigate shallower water. Although the operator can keep to the same itinerary, older ship facilities and services may not be up to the standards of a canceled boat.
-- Minor itinerary tweak. A few cruises that couldn't get to the center of Budapest ended a few miles up-river, and cruisers were bused to their Budapest hotel. That isn't quite making you whole, but most of you would probably accept that sort of solution.
-- Major itinerary change. Last year, I reported on a Berlin-Prague river trip on the Elbe that the operator switched at the last minute to the Oder. To many, that big a change would be unacceptable.
-- Switch to a bus. Occasionally, operators have substituted bus tours plus hotel accommodations for river cruises. That big a change would certainly be a deal-breaker for most of you.
With substantial changes, operators have often offered partial refunds or credits rather than refunds. Some have been relatively fair; others insulting.
Your rights. Tour and cruise contracts specify that if force majeure events prevent the operator from providing the promised travel, the operator has the right to substitute an "equivalent" option. Typically, those contracts do not give you the automatic right to cancel for full refunds, and, unfortunately, the operator gets to decide what is "equivalent." Cruise lines vary in their responses. With hurricanes last year, for example, some lines offered refunds, while others switched ports, offering travelers only trivial compensation.
Dealing with it. Clearly, your best option is to protect yourself from the beginning. Find an operator that offers full cash or (if acceptable) credit refunds for any change. Or buy "any reason" trip cancellation insurance. Once you've paid for the cruise, keep checking on relevant conditions -- water levels, hurricane warnings, whatever -- and your operator's plans until just before you depart.
Unfortunately, operators sometimes spring a change on you at the last minute -- maybe even after you arrive at your departure point. Then, you face a big decision -- accept or fight -- and you have to decide on the spot among three alternatives:
-- Accept the change, even if you don't fully like it, planning to ask for some compensation after the fact.
-- Accept the change, but only after negotiating an immediate written guarantee of compensation you consider adequate.
-- Refuse to accept the change, do something else, and plan to demand a full refund later -- in small claims court, if necessary.
My recommendation: Don't ever accept an unsatisfactory substitute arrangement without some prior agreement on compensation, just hoping the operator will volunteer a generous adjustment. Get something tangible -- and in writing -- before you proceed.

11 Questions With U.S. WNT Goalkeeper Hope Solo
U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo is an intimidating presence in the net. The athletic Solo has all the attributes you would want in a goalkeeper; size, strength, quickness and a willingness to put her body on the line to make a save. It's well known that during her youth career, Solo played as much on the field as in the nets, scoring 109 goals as a forward in high school. Fortunately for the USA, she focused on one position in college at the University of Washington. With 16 shutouts in 32 caps, Solo is already third in both categories and has the best shutouts to caps ratio of any U.S. 'keeper. In advance of the USA's first Peace Queen Cup match in South Korea, the Seattle, Wash., resident took time out from her search for a good coffee shop in Seoul (it turns out there are plenty) to answer 11 questions for ussoccer.com.
ussoccer.com: Are you looking forward to the quality of opposition at the Peace Queen Cup?
Hope Solo: "Without a doubt. These are the games that I look forward to most because this is where a goalkeeper can really rise to the occasion and help her team. Denmark and Australia are already in the 2007 Women's World Cup. Holland finished behind England and France in their qualifying group, but those are two good teams. It should be a great tournament."
ussoccer.com: You are from Eastern Washington and currently live in Seattle. What are the main factors that make the Northwest so wonderful?
HS: "I wish people could understand how crisp and fresh the air is. I look around when I am training and I see three different mountain ranges. We are close to the Sound and Lake Washington. It is just so green and no one in Seattle takes the sun for granted. On a beautiful day, you see sailboats everywhere. Seattle also has some of the best seafood and coffee I've ever had."
ussoccer.com: If you got free tickets to a Seahawks, Mariners or Sonics game, which would you choose?
HS: "The Seahawks. I don't want to say I'm a hop-on-the-bandwagon fan, but I just enjoy watching football the most. Basketball is a close second and baseball is a distant third. I also love to support the former University of Washington athletes. I know a few of the Seahawks, and they are great guys."
ussoccer.com: You played for clubs in both Sweden and France. Which language did you learn more of?
HS: "That is a tough one, but probably French by default because I had to or no one would speak to me. I actually made more of an effort with Swedish. I bought the books and the CDs, but my teammates in Sweden didn't want me to speak Swedish. They just wanted to speak English."
ussoccer.com: Would you consider going back overseas at some point to play?
HS: "At this point in my life, I would have to say no, but I would never close the door. I never thought I would find myself playing for two years overseas anyway. Hopefully, we can get another league started in the United States so I can play at home."
ussoccer.com: The distance of your kicking game is among the best in the world. Is that something you've practiced on or did it just come naturally?
HS: "For the most part, it came naturally, but I have sharpened it up and tried to maintain it. I did have to learn how to drop kick, because coming into Olympic Residency in 2000, I'd always punted out of my hands. It took a while to get proficient at that, but once I got the technique down, the distance was always there. All those years I played on the field and scoring goals certainly paid off."
ussoccer.com: Fairly or unfairly, the goalkeeper is always under the microscope. How do you deal with that kind of pressure or do you embrace it?
HS: "I would say I embrace it, and that's probably why I like tough, intense games more than games where I don't see the ball much. If you put me under pressure, I tend to rise to the occasion. As a goalkeeper, it is true that you are always under the microscope, but most fans don't really know the intricacies of goalkeeping and can't see in games if you are organizing your defense well, which limits chances, or reading the game, which can make your saves much easier. People will look at a stat sheet and see that a goalkeeper only made three saves, but that often doesn't reflect the goalkeeper's performance."
ussoccer.com: What's your favorite part of training?
HS: "Like every true goalkeeper, it's when I get to play on the field with the field players. If I'm in goal, then I like four-v-four on big goals. You get a little of everything, shot-stopping, crosses, breakaways and organizing your defense."
ussoccer.com: What does a 'keeper hate more, a muddy goal area, a hard goal area or a sandy goal area?
HS: "I absolutely love the mud. I will roll around and get dirty and have the time of my life. Sand is the worst. Usually when there is sand in a goal it means it's hard anyway, and the sand just causes weird burns all over your body, plus you lose your footing instantly when you push off to dive. I can handle the hard ground. It's pretty arid in Eastern Washington so we had some hard fields."
ussoccer.com: You have a unique style of fashion. We're pretty sure you didn't develop it in Eastern Washington. How do you think you got your sense of style?
HS: "I don't have one particular style. Sometimes it's more alternative, but other times it's more hip-hop, hence the sideways hats, and sometimes I even have the high-heels and dresses, so I am all over the board with clothes. But I think I've always liked things that are just a little bit different. Different patterns, different colors and different cuts, even though I am pretty shy and don't usually like to stand out, which is odd, because I don't usually blend in either."
ussoccer.com: Who is your favorite goalkeeper?
HS: "Right now, I really like Jens Lehmann of Germany and Arsenal. It was a pretty controversial goalkeeping situation for him at the 2006 World Cup, which you think would be hard mentally replacing a legend like Oliver Kahn in the most important games of your career in your home country, and I think he did very well with that. And then there is Gigi Buffon of Italy. I love his aura, arrogance and confidence. Plus he's Italian and what other goalkeeper can wear pink and get away with it? I think I am going to talk to Nike about getting a pink 'keeper jersey."

The original wall electric fireplace
By Priscilla
from Electric Fireplaces Direct HQ
Comments about Dimplex 40-Inch Sahara Gun Metal Wall Mounted Electric Fireplace - RWF-DG:
One of the most popular wall mounted electric fireplaces. The three colors of sand add a unique twist to the standard fire. Use flame effect by alone or warm a room with the 1500 watt heater. Great for kitchens, hallways, baths, lobbies etc. Installs with a simple hanging bracket. Take it out of the box, mount, plug in and you are ready to enjoy.Bottom line: Super name brand choice (Dimplex) - Sand effect provides a dramatic effect

Not what I expected
By Holly Everpoint
from Deep South USA
About Me Midrange Shopper
Photo of flame color is not accurate! I had to order amber/orange bulbs to achieve a yellowish flame color. Should have probably ordered red bulbs to get a good orange color. Everyone says it looks fake. Puts out very little heat, but the ambience is nice at night. Also, makes a dull rattling sound when left on for hours. I would not recommend this model!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Answer:The thermal conductivity of concrete walls varies significantly depending upon the density or pounds/cubic foot (pcf) of the concrete as well as air content, saturation, crystallinity of the aggregates, ambient conditions, and how the R-value is calculated. Typical R-values or thermal resistance for concrete are provided in the Concrete Construction Handbook, third edition, by Joseph J. Waddell and Joseph A. Dobrowolski, published by McGraw-Hill, 1993:
As you can see, the R-value for a typical normal-weight 6-inch-thick concrete wall is about 0.5 in this reference. A wall of greater thickness would be more optimal in terms of insulating value if it were of lightweight or low density. Low-density concretes are most effective for insulation and also soundproofing as they contain more air voids than normal-weight concrete.
The Portland Cement Association (PCA) provides R-values for concrete walls in the July 2001 publication of Concrete Technology Today and lists the R-values for concrete, including values for 8- and 12-inch walls as follows:
The R-value listed by PCA for a normal-weight (144 pcf) 6-inch concrete wall is 1.23 and includes inside and outside air-film resistances, which contribute to overall thermal resistance. Call PCA at 847-966-6200 ext. 564 to obtain copies of this reference.

Classy Seafood Spot Downtown – If you're looking to impress some business associates or simply treaty yourself to an excellent meal in a classy atmosphere, look no further than DC Coast in the heart of the Golden Triangle.
DC Coast primarily attracts the business crowd during the day; its tables are packed with suited lawyer types engrossed in work conversations.
This place can get a little expensive, so if you're looking to try DC Coast on a budget, make a lunch time reservation. The food is still excellent and the prices are much more reasonable.
The lunch menu is packed with a variety of fish prepared with interesting sauces and sides. Carnivores will be satisfied as well, thanks to delectable options such as the steak frites, which features the restaurants to-die-for truffle fries; the famous DC Coast burger, which comes with hand made pickles; and the hazelnut crusted chicken, with mushrooms and asparagus on the side.
As to be expected, the restaurant breaks out the really good stuff for the dinner crowd, where you'll drop at least $30 a plate. With selections such as Chinese style smoked lobster and golden tileflish in a foie gras sauce though, the price tag is worth it.
Awesome! – Fantastic pan-seared Tuna and "tower crab," steaks are good too. Great wine list!
