CACC Trojans bash Huntingdon
Published 1:47pm Thursday, February 21, 2013By Ed Bailey
The CACC Trojans softball team swept the Huntingdon Hawks in a doubleheader this past Tuesday, winning by scores of 15-3 and 8-0.
The first victory was powered by the long ball, as the Lady Trojans went yard five times.
1B Andrea Barnett, 2B Robin Dunaway and catcher Shannon Summers each smacked two-run shots over the fence. OF Carley Toretta hit a three-run blast out of the yard.
Pitcher Lindsey Broome, who got the victory in game one, helped her own cause with a 3-run homer and a double.
CACC softball coach Greg Shivers was impressed with his team's early play.
"It's good for us to play well," Shivers said. "We showed some rust here and there so we definitely have to get better."
Broome didn't record a strikeout during game one but Shivers said her control and the defense behind her were top-notch.
"She did an excellent job of working the corners," Shivers said.
Game two was dominated by hurler Alyssa Kornegay. In five innings of work Kornegay fanned nine batters.
While the Trojans didn't net any round-trippers in the nightcap, Summers and infielder Jessica Matthews fueled the Trojans offense.
"We stress playing well in all three phases; defense, pitching and hitting," Shivers said. "We have different ways of scoring. Obviously we swung the bats really well."
Next for CACC is a trip to Panama City where they'll face Gulf Coast Community College, Northwest Florida State and defending national champs Chattanooga State.
"It'll be good to play competition that'll push us," Shivers said.

"The Mark of the Vampyr" I
Ambrosio in HellDarkness, darker than the darkest night, deeper than the depths of the ocean was nothing and everything. Darkness was, and reigned. Darkness was Ambrosios every conscious notion. Eternity had come and gone, or so it seemed, and still He languished. His tormentors had left him only after six days and seven nights, He knew the passage of time only from the Demons that did attend him. In the day the demons touch burned like fire. In the night, their rotten limbs froze him to the core. For those long days and nights they had tortured him to his limits and beyond, pulling, stretching, twisting, and morphing his malleable Soul so that his appearance might match that of his wickedness. Only on the seventh day did they finally leave him. When they were gone, he was utterly alone.To one who has spent their life cloistered away from most of their fellow men, going days at a time without spea
Dear Boss - Chapter 110th September 1888 - Whitechapel, London. Antonio Fernandez Carriedo was shoved against a wall. Hard."Look at the pathetic little man, boys," sneered a voice somewhere above him.If only they knew who I really am."Ha! He's not even fighting back!" The owner of this voice did not have the distinctive British accent.If only they knew what I can do."Is that how they raise people outside the city?" He had a crude American accent instead.If only they knew what I have done."Hey! Look up, Spic*! I want to see the look on your face while I beat you senseless!" The voice said, firmly gripping Antonio's collar.If only they knew what I am.Antonio looked up. His green eyes met the blue ones of the American. He wasn't surprised when he saw the American waver slightly.Anyone could tell that his eyes weren't normal. Green eyes with flecks of gold don't usually occur in regular people. Regular mortals.What was he? For the longest time, he himself d
Abortion PoemHi mommy.You don't know me yet but let me tell you something about me: I'm just an embryo.I have no conscience and no thought process. I'm just living off YOUR body for now.I am basically a growing vegetable. I don't have a name. I don't know my name because I don't even know what a name is.I'm barely a human being at this point. I don't even look like one. As a matter of fact I'm not even the size of a quarter.I have the the potential to live.But I have no concept of that so it's really your choice seeing as I'm in YOUR body.Oh wait, you aborted me.Cool I don't have a thought process or feelings anyways.You made your CHOICE. I have no regrets as I was never aware and again I can't feel. Which means I don't even exist to write this parody of a failed guilt trip.Each abortion made is another woman's choice. A right executed and one less ass to wipe.BRING ON THE HATE!

Bonded for EternityBonded for Eternity: A spin off of Edgar Allen Poe's "The Fall of the House of Usher" from Lady Madleine's viewI had the strangest dream; or at least, that was what I believed it was. I had been hit once again by my fits, and once I lost consciousness strange thoughts danced through my mind. Sometimes the dreams that would come from my seizers would be so macabre that I knew they could only be dreams, but this time I was not so fortunate.In my dream I heard my brother's voice, and my violent visions were mellowed down by his tender cooing over my semi-lifeless body.I could feel his touch, although I could not respond as I wished to, but I felt immense peace of mind. He had not given me even the smallest of affections for months, insisting that we had brought a curse upon our family with our incestuous love affair. He had pushed my emotions aside and settled for pining for me from a distance, even as it brought us both to madness.

British and American researchers are currently doing marvelous jobs in the field of bioprinting research. Nevertheless, this technique is not one that is solely being used by Western companies and organizations. We just received the news from a Russian company called 3D Bioprinting Solutions that they will present the first bioprinter from Russia next month, during the Open Innovations 2014 forum in Moscow, which will be held on October 14 until 16 2014. This bioprinter - the company does … [Read more...]
U.S. Army Wants to Use Bioprinting to Recover Wounds
When it comes to news about wars, stories are often focussed on the mortality rate. Obviously, this is a very important part of wars and something which needs to be reported of. However, the world sometimes forgets about the wounded soldiers. The number of U.S. soldiers with serious injuries has increased, according to Michael Romanko, an official at the Armed Forces Institute of Regenerative Medicine (AFIRM) by the Department of Defence. The U.S. army therefore wants to try its luck with … [Read more...]

New Hybrid 3D Printer Makes It Possible To Print Implantable Cartilage
The developments of bio-printing are possibly the most fascinating of all 3D printing developments. In the last few years, medical science has used 3D printers to create 3D-photografting technology and we are close to printing actual human organs. 3D printing also found its use in creating custom prostatics that improve the quality of life for a price that can actually be paid. Now there is something new. The scientists at the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine (WFIRM) have … [Read more...]
One step closer to printing human organs
If you have heard of term bioprinting than you know that scientists are already capable of creating small samples of human tissue in the lab. The big problem at this point is that before they can make human sized organs, the scientists need to find a way to keep large quantities of the cells alive so they have enough to print entire organs. To convince living cells to grow into things like liver tissue or heart tissue, cells need to get nutrients or else they die. The tissues in our bodies … [Read more...]
Great infographic on bioprinting
Bioprinting is in its early days but the future looks very exciting. Using modified printer cartridges and extracted cells as the basis, bioprinting will make it possible to print full organs and other human parts on demand. Such a possibility will eventually wipe out the need for donor organs, which is a problem today considering the vast amount of patients in need of new organs. This infographic created by PrinterInks (in collaboration with Organovo) shows where bio-printing is headed in … [Read more...]

This is exactly the rug I needed. It is very thin, but looks very sturdy and is reversible. It doesn't pile at all and seems very easy to keep in good shape. The design and style of this rug is fairly simple and is not sophisticated, but it is exactly what I wanted - a good quality thin-woven wool-made reversible rug.Price on Overstock was also the lowest one. I wish they got more similar rugs with more designs and colors...I've been using this rug for more than 2 weeks and I'm more and more convinced I made a very good purchase.
Love the rug. Just as depicted in description. The rug is a bit flat, but is just fine for me. I put it in my laundry room and it's perfect. It's stylish, nicely made and flat enough to fit under the door. It's raises the bar in my laundry room 100%. Very satisfied and I actually like it better than the much more expensive one I have in my guest bedroom (which is designed with the same colors). I'll probably buy another since the price was so great. Wish I'd have shopped Overstock for that one, first. My designer ordered it and I was dumb enough not to check Overstock. Shame on me but not again!
Love this product. The quality is great and it fits perfect in my kitchen. Hope it will stand up to the wear and tear.
Although the rug looks nothing like the picture - I like it better because of that. This is a small rug and the pattern is more geometric diamonds with grey and mustard. There is no red at all and the title is misleading. This is the perfect rug for our small guest bedroom at our vacation home. It didn't cost a lot and looks great.

Remember when David Caruso left "NYPD Blue" in a massive firestorm of controversy to become a huge movie star? David Caruso "?
No, not the singer ... he's an actor. He was on "NYPD Blue" before Jimmy Smits. No, seriously, there was a guy named David Caruso, and he was the star of the show. Remember?
Well, anyway, David Caruso returns to TV today in the made for cable nail-biter "Deadlocked" (8 p.m. EDT/PDT, TNT). Caruso plays the prosecutor in this courtroom thriller with a twist. Charles S. Dutton ("Roc," "Alien 3") -- one of the most convincing angry men in show business -- is the "twist." He plays an angry man, convinced his very guilty-looking son (whom Caruso is prosecuting) is not guilty, and he decides to hold the jury hostage until somebody (Caruso) proves he is right. It's a cool plot, and both Caruso and Dutton deliver the tension enough to make the drama really work.
In other tube highlights:
"The Crocodile Hunter" has been on for years now, and if you've never seen it, you've probably heard the rumors. It's a nature documentary show hosted by a very friendly and quite possibly insane Australian man named Steve Irwin. Irwin simply has absolutely no fear of any of the things we are all supposed to be at least a little bit afraid off -- like being eaten alive by wild animals, being bitten by poisonous snakes, etc. What's worse is that his wife, Terri, comes along with him on most expeditions, and, well, let's just say the episode where he gets repeatedly bitten by a tree snake that jumps into their boat, causing Terri to fall overboard with a giant, hungry crocodile in the water, was some pretty jaw-dropping television. Anyway, this is your chance to see for yourself, because it's "Croc Week" on Animal Planet. A full week of the best episodes of "The Crocodile Hunter," starts today at 8 p.m. EDT/PDT. And by the way, you won't be disappointed. The rumors are true.
Maybe it's because they're usually so proper and easily embarrassed, but when British people do irreverent and outrageous comedy, they really go nuts. This week Comedy Central premieres a new comedy series from the nation that brought us "Monty Python" and "Absolutely Fabulous." And if you are a fan of those shows, "The League of Gentlemen" (10:30 p.m. EDT/PDT, Monday), while certainly new and different, might just be your (spiked) cup of tea. A headline in the local paper of the bizarro-fictional town of Royston Vasey reads, "New Road Planned - Strangers Expected." And the strangers do show up pretty quickly - some 60 odd characters (and we do mean "odd") including men, women and transvestites, all played by the show's versatile and talented three-man troupe (Steve Pemberton, Mark Gatiss and Reece Shearsmith). It's weird, it's British, and it's highly recommended.
A&E premieres a few new episodes of its popular, often interesting, sometimes not "Biography" series. Today at 8 p.m. EDT/PDT should be a good one as it profiles Sun Records founder Sam Phillips. Much of the most important American music of the second half of this century came from Phillips' Memphis-based label. And this hour gives Phillips' own accounts of those revolutionary early recording sessions with Elvis Prestley, Roy Orbison, B.B. King and Johnny Cash. Also premiering this week on "Biography": Ex-"Happy Days" heartthrob Henry Winkler (8 p.m. EDT/PDT, Monday) and current Royal heartthrob Prince William (8 p.m. EDT/PDT, Wednesday).
"Making the Band" (9:30 p.m. EDT/PDT, Friday, ABC) has its own take on the "Survivor" concept (round up a bunch of real people, dangle a prize for those who can last the season and callously kick one or more of them to the curb each week). Rather than surviving on a desert island, however, the cast of "Making the Band" must survive the even more cutthroat world of show business. The tension is high and the tears flow this week as the seven finalists for the roster of the boyband to be known as O-Town must be cut down to the final five. A little quick math says that two of them, the last two, must go. Man, this reality-based stuff can be tough sometimes. Even if you have no plans to buy an O-Town record when it comes out, this show can suck you in if you're not careful.

Ex-Claret Knowles back in the Football League
One transfer that went through on deadline day at the end of March that was missed by Clarets Mad was that of Dominic Knowles who has signed for League Two club Burton Albion.
Dom has had an interesting year since being released by Eddie Howe at the end of the 2011/12 season. He did make the first team bench for Howe but didn't make it onto the pitch.
After trials with Stevenage and York, and he was very close to signing for York, t the end of the summer he signed for Gainsborough Trinity who are in the Blue Square North.
He had a successful few months there and had scored ten goals for them, that was until he was axed by the club when they found out he'd been to a trial with Burton. At the time Knowles said: "I did have my reasons for not telling them about the trial, but I do not want to go into them.
"I enjoyed my time at Gainsborough. I appreciated the opportunity to play some football. I was on a non-contract basis and if they felt stronger they could have offered me a contract earlier. The lads at the club have been great and it's a shame that it has to end this way."
He remained in the same league, signing non-contract forms with Harrogate Town in January and went on to have two and a half excellent months there, scoring ten goals in fourteen games.
That brought with it renewed interest from Burton and on that transfer deadline he joined the League Two club.
Harrogate manager Simon Weaver, while reluctant to see Knowles go, said: "Dom has done really well for us during his time here. Burton have been looking at him for a while and there was always a possibility that this may happen.
"He has a burning desire to play at a high level and that is the reason why he wouldn't contemplate signing a contract at Conference North level. He is an ambitious lad and was great on and off the pitch.
"We will keep in touch with him and hope he achieves the success he deserves."

Here are the facts:
—The United States has released 425 terrorists from Guantánamo, at least 50 of whom have returned to the battlefield to fight American troops.
—Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both say they're fiscally responsible. But each has called for $1 trillion in tax increases over the next ten years—and dressed them up as tax cuts!
—Mainstream Media has been given marching orders from the Society of Professional Journalists: never refer to "Islamic terrorists" or "Muslim terrorists." And they are obeying! Whenever our brave agents disrupt a terror plot, the media dismisses the culprits as a gang of idiots—lulling us into a false sense of security.
—If the liberals win the 2008 election, they will cripple talk radio—forcing stations to give equal time to left-wing programs and insisting that liberals play a key role in station management.
—Up to a quarter of all state pension funds in the United States are invested in companies that are helping Iran, Syria, North Korea, or the Sudan—for a total of nearly $200 billion.
—The Do-Nothing Congress is still doing nothing—and the worst offenders are the presidential candidates Clinton, Obama, and McCain, who never show up for their day jobs as senators...except to pick up their $165,000 paychecks!
Is it any wonder that Americans feel fleeced at every turn? As more and more critical problems develop that need national attention, the White House and Congress appear to be AWOL.
Who's calling the shots instead?
Big business, big government, big labor, and big lobbyists. And their self-serving agendas are doing nothing to help the ever-increasing number of American people who are losing their homes, paying credit card interest rates higher than 25 percent, and finding their jobs increasingly outsourced to foreign countries.
In this hard-hitting call to arms, Dick Morris and Eileen McGann reveal the hundreds of ways American taxpayers are routinely fleeced—by our own government; by foreign countries like Dubai that are gobbling up American interests and spending millions to influence government decisions and American public opinion; by Washington lobbying firms that are pushing the agendas of corrupt foreign dictators on Capitol Hill; and by hedge-fund billionaires collecting huge tax breaks courtesy of the IRS.
With their characteristic blend of sharp analysis and insider insight, Morris and McGann call offenders of all kinds on the carpet—and offer practical agendas we all can follow to help turn the tide.

Paul Laurence Dunbar
I know what the caged bird feels, alas!
When the sun is bright on the upland slopes;
When the wind stirs soft through the springing grass,
And the river flows like a stream of glass;
When the first bird sings and the first bud opes,
And the faint perfume from its chalice steals--
I know what the caged bird feels!
I know why the caged bird beats his wing
Till its blood is red on the cruel bars;
For he must fly back to his perch and cling
When he fain would be on the bough a-swing;
And a pain still throbs in the old, old scars
And they pulse again with a keener sting--
I know why he beats his wing!
I know why the caged bird sings, ah me,
When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,--
When he beats his bars and he would be free;
It is not a carol of joy or glee,
But a prayer that he sends from his heart's deep core,
But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings--
I know why the caged bird sings!

Maya, the Singing Caged Bird Left Quietly
(Poem dedicated to Paul Laurence Dunbar & Maya Angelou)
The singing caged bird left quietly this morning.
Everyone is searching for her, everyone is crying.
It is always a shock when a special person is gone,
Death always comes like a loose bullet from a gun.
Death has an eerie way of shocking and torturing us.
The only person left who knew the beautiful song
Of the bird has departed. She is now in the arms of Jesus.
She is now part of the chorus.
She is using her tongue
To recite some unforgettable verses to other great poets,
Who have welcomed her to a joyful oasis of wonders.
Let's celebrate the life of this phenomenal woman,
Let's sing and pray for our beloved Maya. Amen!

Reading this poem is like reading Maya's own in a revised format. Nice words and touching message. Maybe Maya took her inspiration from Dunbar. (Report) Reply
Tunji Ibrahim (9/26/2012 12:12:00 PM)
'Sympathy'... Intense in point of view of life. Invariably, it is out of devastating experience that the poet gains insight. Without any shadow of doubt, here is a source that gives vitality to Maya's own creative control as manifest in 'I know Why The Caged Bird Sings'. Mr Paul has cause to smile in the grave every now and then. (Report) Reply

Brother Paul, this is a great poem. Maya, definitely, borrowed from you. Her famous poem I know why the caged bird sings is awfully similar to Dunbar's poem Sympathy. Dunbar gave that poem the wrong title. (Report) Reply
Mrs. Glass (11/5/2009 11:01:00 AM)
I feel the poet is describing the inability to acheive true freedom while living during segregation. After reading this, I am enlightened as to how the poet struggles during this time. The theme is conveyed in a metaphor that is also used by Maya Angelou. Modern day Americans, of all races, cultures, and ethnic backgrounds, can relate to feeling imprisioned as the narrator does in this poem. (Report) Reply
Peter K Mullins (8/21/2007 10:58:00 AM)

Investigators probe an early morning shooting that has left a Shreveport man injured and a suspect on the run.
Just before 2 a.m., this morning, Shreveport Police officers were called to the Raceway gas station in the 3700 block of Hearne Avenue after receiving a call that a man had been shot while apparently sitting inside a vehicle on the parking lot there. On the arrival of officers, they located 26 year old Marcus Henderson suffering from at least one gunshot wound to the lower body. Henderson was subsequently transported to a local hospital with injuries that were considered to be non life threatening.
Investigators with the Shreveport Police Department's Violent Crimes Unit responded to the scene, initiating their inquiry. At this stage of the investigation, authorities believe that Henderson was shot while sitting inside his vehicle, possibly at the hands of a male subject that witnesses advised was seen approaching Henderson's car prior to the shooting. The same suspect was seen fleeing on foot immediately following the shooting. Detectives are hopeful that surveillance footage from the business will help to identify the suspect. As the investigation continues, authorities urge anyone with information about this crime to call Caddo-Shreveport Crimestoppers at 318 673-7373 or Shreveport Police at (318) 673-6955.

56 Tasting Notes
Usually I have this in the morning and I love it. It's not overly sweet and I haven't really understood why so many people describe it that way.
But this morning I could barely finish my little cup. Perhaps the maple chunks are heavy and now that I'm getting more than half way through the canister I'm steeping more into my tea. D'oh, gravity!
Received this from Mel. I was really excited about this being Chocolate and Puerh. Then I read the description on the tea bag pouch that read, "velvety and vanilla." So I got a bit worried. What happened to chocolate? Then I read the ingredients on the back of the tea bag pouch with more ingredients like nutmeg and cinnamon. Now it's a chai? Darn.
I thought this was ok. Not being a fan of chai I could still drink it. The flavors seemed to mellow as I drank it even. But I thought the chocolate was the most distant flavor of the bunch. Not at all what I expected. But ok.
Steeped three parts rooibos key lime with one part utopian jewel oolong. I liked this blend. Really smooth and all the tropical flavors compliment each other. I like the key lime on its own but the oolong seems to lack something so I'll probably use it up faster this way.
Decent cup of tea. Everything I've tried from this company seems like it was created in a lab to get the best possible balance of flavors that the broadest range of people will appreciate. Not necessarily a bad thing, but none of the ones I've tried really stand out as something I'd want to have all the time.

Hurricane Season anchor for Sea of Cortez
We're planning on spending hurricane season in the Northern end of the Sea of Cortez, and I was hoping to get some first hand info on bottom types and anchor recommendations, specifically for Puerto Don Juan (Bahia de los Angeles) and Puerto Gonzaga. A boat we're considering buying (28.5' Pearson Triton) currently has a 25# CQR with 60' of 5/16" chain. Given that we'll be buying at least one, if not two more anchors, we'd like to take to opportunity to match the new anchors to the areas where they'll be tested the most (the anchorages listed above). Thanks

For instance, Connecticut estimates it will cost the state $41.6 million more to implement NCLB than the federal government is providing. Local communities will bear additional costs, too.
The White House and the DOE dispute that. They point to two studies done by the Government Accountability Office in New Jersey and Massachusetts that found those states had enough federal resources to implement the law. They also note that since NCLB was passed, federal education spending has increased more than 30 percent.
"It is unfortunate that some appear to think that reform is more trouble than it's worth," says DOE spokeswoman Samara Yudof. "No Child Left Behind is working: Evidence from both the Nation's Report Card and the states' own data prove it."
Although test scores are going up, they were before NCLB was passed, as well. That's because of state education reforms and testing protocols put into place over the past 25 years. Indeed, there's been no research to determine which reforms get credit for the increasing scores. But many teachers and local legislators credit the earlier state improvements, and they're concerned that NCLB mandates are actually undermining their students' long-term success.
They argue that the high-stakes nature of NCLB's test encourages "teaching to the test" and actually undermines learning and critical-thinking skills. At the same time, they contend, NCLB mandates drain resources from key enrichment programs.
"The consequences especially for minority students are more and more tragic, and you see it in the data," says Sylvia Bruni, assistant superintendent of the Laredo, Texas, Independent School District. "We have enormous dropout rates, in my community as many 30 percent of all students.... Statewide there's a marked decline in the number of students who are prepared for higher education."
Ms. Bruni says that one of the biggest indications of NCLB's failure comes from the business community, which has found that students are "graduating as poor communicators, really weak critical thinkers, weak problem solvers."

How does a wedding reception after-party work? Do you have any planning pointers?
The best thing about a wedding reception after-party is that there really are no rules -- the planning and execution is entirely up to you. The one etiquette must is inviting all of your wedding guests. A majority of them (like your parents' friends) probably won't attend, but they'll appreciate the offer. In terms of planning, you can host an open bar affair in another room at your reception site, reserve a space or a few tables at your favorite bar or lounge in advance, or make it more of a spontaneous, let's-keep-this-party-going affair. Start and end times are entirely your call too!

I used this product to lay my new hard wood floors and it was easy to work with and worked well.
Best Uses
Used it under clicklock Morningstar bamboo. I did not experience any of the tearing and folded up problems some mentioned. It was installed above grade over OSB and in addition to taping the strips together with the attached tape, I stapled it about every 18" around the perimeter which allowed me to carefully walk on it with no problems of tearing. Easy to cut with scissors or sharp utility knife. Inner end of the rolls were hung over the staircase and almost all the wrinkles were out the next day.
Best Uses
Workman installed beneath new hardwood floor.
Best Uses
We used this product as an underlay for original hardwood flooring install. This product helped protect the subfloor after a dishwasher leak. We used this product again when hardwood flooring needed to be replaced due to dishwasher leak damage. We like that's it is made out of recycled materials and reduces floor noise. Good value for 100 sq ft.
Best Uses
Great product. Hardly any sound at all and eco friendly too!
Best Uses
Even though the laminate flooring had underlayment already attached we added this for the vapor barrier and for extra cushioning. Made from recycled materials so it made me feel good too! Worked out very well.

I am looking to glue down a click bamboo floor and would like to install an underlayment. I have talked to 5 different people at the local store and they have all given me different answers on what to do. Can someone tell me the correct way to use a sound barrior underlayment and how to install when we need to glue the bamboo floor down?1 answer
Please call our Tech and Installation Dept. @ (800) 366-4204 for a detailed answer to your question. Thank you for your inquiry.Q:
The installation instructions for Ecosilent HD state that for floating floor over concrete the adhesive strip of the underlayment for the first row is to be laid next to the wall. Does that mean the adhesive strip is to lay flat on the floor next to the wall or that it lays vertically against the wall with the actual pad section of the underlayment running along the wall?1 answer
It sounds like you may be confusing the adhesive strip side with the moisture barrier film (flap) side, the flap will face the room (away from wall).Q:
do you have to glue down when over concrete first then glue bamboo to it again ?1 answer
Yes you will need to "double-stick" for this application, please refer to the specification sheet for: ECO SILENT SOUND HD found on the product page by clicking on: "Click here for detailed information." along with the flooring installation instructions.Q:
I am putting down 12mm laminate flooring in a basement (concrete). I was going to first put down the 6 mil Dream Home Poly sheeting, then I was going to put down the Eco Silent Sound HD underlayment. Is this a reasonable approach?1 answer
Yes this will work.Q:
How much noise reduction does this have to the room below?1 answer
This product has a Delta IIS of 22.Q:
For installation of 12mm laminate flooring over concrete slab, I would need 6mm plastic sheeting in addition to the Eco-Silent underlayment under the laminate? Also what type of tape would be needed for the 6mm plastic sheeting and underlayment?1 answer
Yes that is correct. Over lap the seams on the 6 mil poly sheeting 6"-8" and use duct tape to hold the seams together. Thank you for your inquiry.Q:
I am going to be installing a floating bamboo floor using your Eco Silent HD Underlayment. What kind of tape do I use to tape the seams of the underlayment? Do I use tape or something else?2 answers
This has a self adhesive strip w/ overlap flap on the side, use a waterproof tape (duct) to seal the butt joints.CUSTOMER CARE
You need tape. For floating and nail down installations, roll out underlaymentQ:
Can this product be used with floating Vinyl Planks (such as the Tranquility Clear Lake Chestnut)? I would like to buy it because it is made from recycled content, but if it won't work for vinyl floors, I will get something else. Thanks!1 answer
ECO SILENT SOUND HD is not recommended, use our Tranquility LVT Underlayment for added comfort SKU: 10029179Q:
The 6MM cork rolls, I am using it as a sound barrier... what is the stc rating?1 answer
How many square feet come in a box? 150 square feetQ:
We have 1/2" x 5" MorningStar strand carbonized bamboo and eco silent sound underlayment that we will be installing as a floating system on a concrete slab which is currently carpeted. We plan on covering the concrete with 6 mil poly sheeting, then the eco silent underlayment.1 answer
Be certain that your underlayment and poly sheeting has no folds and your subfloor is flat and level. Subfloors must be flat and level with no more variation than 3/16" in 10' or 1/8" in a 6' radius.

Working with write barriers and journaling filesystems
Your journaling filesystem is carefully tracking write operations – but what happens when the data gets to the disk? A write barrier request can help protect your data.
Journaling filesystems offer some important benefits for the user, but they also pose some subtle problems. One problem is that the filesystem must keep a record that reflects the state of write operations to the storage device, but the storage device may actually change the order of those write requests in an effort to optimize performance. If the system fails at a point where the journal is out of step with the true sequence of write operations, your data may not be as safe as you think.

Nike LeBron 8 "Carbon Fiber" Sample on eBay by staff 0 Comments
April 12, 2011 BY Aaron Hope / 0
The Nike LeBron 8 V/2 Low first surfaced in the vibrant 'Sprite' colorway but this latest edition takes the chopped-off silhouette in an entirely different direction. Check out these new shots of the 'Triple Black' LeBron V2 Low, a blacked-out model that offers an alternative to the preponderance of white summer shoes, all while offering a contemporary tonal approach. These joints would be deceptively perfect for summertime streetball, too, their heavily ventilated uppers and low-cut profile considerably cooler than pretty much anything this side of the Hyperfuse series. Click through to get a better look and if you happen to fit one of the few available sizes, grab a pair early from MarqueeSole.

ID plumbing setup, please, I'm baffled
What is this contraption under a vanity sink? The black tube to the right leads up to nothing behind the vanity drawers. Another vanity, installed at the same time by the same plumber, has the same thing.
Can I safely cap that black tube off at the white pipe?
The gray tubing is supply line for hot and cold.
House was built in 1890s with mods in a town that has lax to no codes or inspections ... don't think "they'd never put ___ there", because they just might have.
The local hardware store identified it ... it's an "Air Admittance Valve", a code-acceptable way to vent a sink when there's no way to run a stack pipe. The valve part is out of sight, up by the sink, above the level of the trao, as it should be.
However, it's usually running vertically, not out of the side like that.
http://www.diyadvice.com/diy/plumbing/kitchen/install-air-admittance-valve/ shows a properly installed one.
The only thing that clerk in the hardware store confirmed was he/she confirmed why they are working as a stock clerk in a hardware store instead of working in the plumbing industry...
THAT IS NOT AN AAV--(Air Admittance valve).
From the top down you have what appears to be an 1-1/4" DWV grade tubular tailpiece into a trap adapter.
The trap adapter is an 1-1/4" compression x 1-1/2" female slip.
Although you cannot see it, inside the bottom of the trap adapter and the top of the Tee there is an 1-1/2" x close nipple.
The tee is an 1-1/2" slip x 1-1/2" slip x 1" FIP Sanitary tee.
From the side inlet of that tee you have a 1" polythelene MIP x barb adapter to which the 1" SD polyethelene pipe is attached.
We don't know what there intended purpose for that poly line might be, but if it runs up to an AAV behind the drawer that is also a couple code violations.
First off, the minimum size line permitted for a vent is 1-1/4".
Second-"Code Prohibits using Poly pipe inside a structure."
Third, an AAV may not be installed in a concealled location.
God only knows what the hose clamp on the bottom of the tee is used for. It appears as if they may be relying on the screw part of that clamp to serve as a pipe hanger by resting it on that small projection in the hole through the floor.
If the trap is below the floor then the it exceeds the code maximum of 24" vertical from the drain opening to the water level in the trap.
The gray water line is polybutelene pipe with plastic fittings and knowing the failure rate of that junk, Which is evidenced by the number of class action lawsuites against it, that line is nothing but a ticking time bomb.
Hey ... not my choice of plumber, and this town isn't big enough to support more than a few of them. Medium-range plans (next year or two) are to replace that vanity, so we'll replace that stuff with real copper
I have a copy of the building permit where it was signed off as OK. :) OK?
The trap is there, just above the top of the picture, and the valve is up and to the right, out of the picture. That drain is resting on packed dirt under the house, with a pipe hanger to the stud next to it.
Apparently the plumber responsible for this is well-known enough locally that when he saw the "idiosyncratic" way the trap was arranged (in a picture I have not posted here), the guy in the hardware store said, "I'd tell you who he is so you can avoid him, but he's dead."
Cheap, but dead.

Sunderland boss Roy Keane admits he'll be overseeing a mini-clearout when he returns from the club's tour of Ireland.
Graham Kavanagh, Clive Clarke and Tobias Hysen were all left out of the three-match pre-season tour of Ireland. Hysen is interesting former club IFK Gothenburg, while South Shields-born Hull City manager Phil Brown has confirmed he wants to sign midfielder Kavanagh, says The Journal.
"I think there'll be one or two going out before the start of the season," he said. "One or two have fallen behind, one or two have expressed to me that they're not happy but that's the way it is. I won't be ringing up any clubs trying to offload any of my players but I'm well aware we have quality players other clubs are going to be interested in. One or two have already rung me over the last few days."
