We spend up to 90% of our time indoors – in our homes, our offices or at school. However, studies show that indoor air can be more polluted and therefore worse for our health than air outdoors, as indoor air and dust can contain a number of worrying harmful chemical pollutants.
Children, particularly babies and toddlers playing on floors, are specifically vulnerable to ingesting these pollutants through breathing in or eating dust.
Chemicals of concern include flame retardants, plasticisers and non-stick and water-proofing chemicals. Many are toxic and some are persistent (do not break down) and bioaccumulative (increase in concentration in our bodies and we do not tend to excrete them)' there's more information on these below.
It's worth noting that the chemicals listed are just a selection of what is found in house dust – we are exposed to a complex cocktail of chemicals all the time, whether we like it or not.

Skip to comments.Union Sticks It to Hostess and Leaves Workers Jobless
Posted on 11/16/2012 8:39:19 PM PST by SquarePants
You may be right about that. This Hostess story probably came closer to violence than most people realize. In the last days before the company decided to liquidate, they ended up with a situation where the Teamsters union was authorized by their own leadership to cross the picket line of the bakers union.
I predict that's going to be the ultimate demise of labor unions in this country ... when one is pitted against another as employment opportunities for low-skill labor shrink considerably.
Looks like most of those workers are hispanics. Now the illegals will be unemployed as well. I think soon unemployment will reach 25% across the country and then things will start getting nasty.
My grandfather had to join a union at the last place he worked - after his own business had been squeezed out by a company (from Chicago) who used mob tactics - and he had similar thoughts. He despised the absentee company men (from Chicago) that drove out occasionally to check on the peons, but he reserved the majority of his scorn for the union bosses (from Chicago) that drove out occasionally to check on the peons.
Mr. niteowl77
When I went back to school, I got to help choose my replacement before leaving the small company I worked for. One idiot had the gall to include "Union Organizer" on his resume. We called him just to see if he would come in, but he was a no-show for his appointment.
Let them eat Twinkies.
It's likely a formality required by bankruptcy proceedings.
No judge is going to tell them not to stop working....
And, at the new company, they will be at the bottom of the seniority list.
Looking for contacts at Hostess.
Deal in distressed type merchandise.
No. We don't deal with any tangible products. Just data. "Scan Based Trading" is our biggest product. We have an online app and I work Support.
I talked with a few at Hostess a lot.
Stating that the company doesn't have the resources to weather an extended strike, Hostess CEO Gregory Rayburn announced today that everyone's losing their jobs, and the company's assets will be sold. Big win for the union, I guess, but it's a huge loss for the 18,000 workers. Correction. Ex-workers. The most mystifying thing about is that most likely Twinkies and Ding-Dongs and their related products will survive. The product brands will be sold, and we probably won't have to suffer any type of interruption in our Twinkie supply, thank God.The union bosses will still get their paychecks, and go on to bigger and better unions to destroy more jobs. And of course, this is also a stealthy Obamacare story.
This particular union's bigwigs have now ticked off the Teamsters. Some union on union violence coming? For some reason I couldn't care less if it does...
Soon to be made in China with melamine added as a flavor enhancer!
Or... government twinks.
This blather totally ignores the insane burden fedgov regulations but on state economies.
Ooops, prev comment posted in wrong thread...
It's what unions do best.
I could have bought and sold a virtual Twinkie. Too late now.
Googled it. Hey, and I'd not heard of that before.
Scan based trading means that Hostess owned that Twinkie till somebody bought it at the cash register, by scanning as is the modern mode. And here I was thinking that Wal-Mart had bought it wholesale.
The feds tried that with the Mustang Ranch. They couldn't successfully sell sex and booze. How incompetent does that tell you they are?
Walmart may have - as Hostess doing SBT thru us with WM. Other retailers, though...several others.
I meant "Hostess wasn't doing SBT thru us with WM".
Well no, would that not be two different things? If Wal Mart bought the Twinkies outright that were delivered to its warehouse, that's not scan based trading any more, if Wikipedia's article on it is correct. Scan based trading happened only when the Twinkies remained in Hostess' legal possession until a retail customer rang it up at a register and paid.
oh. that's what i thought.
Which would have given Wal-Mart more freedom to do what it wanted with the Twinkies. Instead of being contracted to do a consignment sale on Hostess' terms, it owned the Twinkies and could mark them down to clearance shelves near end of code, give them away in promos, whatever.
Walmart is such a big buyer that it already can do pretty much whatever it wants with it's vendors. Big buyers with clout have onerous rules, and the infraction of said rules causes chargebacks (fines against the cost of the merchandise). So they not only strike a favorable deal based on volume, but can incrementally lower the price all sorts of ways.
yeah, i'd just want to sell them the stuff outright, and let walmart worry about it from there
scan based trading is only going to work in particular situations. It benefits the vendor only so much as it gives an inside track on sales and inventory levels, and likely might get you in a store that you might otherwise not (since the retailer is not making any investment in inventory) but that is a double edged sword since it isn't sold until...sold. From a manufacturers or distributors perspective that would be rather tenuous IMHO. It's beneficial to a retailer if they essentially are not having to invest in inventory if there isn't a buy-back policy (unsold items returned to vendor). Some retailers want more control, for instance larger chains have their own distribution centers. Some suppliers directly supply stores rather than the DC's though (fresh food for instance). It depends on the product. They are also likely to get a better price buying up front and assuming some of the risk. I can see where there would be some advantages for both sides.
That is a really nice story, Eva.
Takes me back to simpler (and I think better) times, when families did what they could and got by as well as possible and viewed something like a "boughten" shortcake as a wonderful treat and rarity.
(p.s. With apologies to the perfectly fine Twinkies among us, of course!)
Also, the recipe for these things didn't read like the parts list on Junior's chemistry set.
You gotta point there.
On the other hand I live near a university town and everybody there avoids beef, sugar, nuts, gluten, fructose, lactose, fractose and craptose...
And somehow they're still always sick and tired and whinin' about it.
Oh for the good old days lol...
Our suppliers give retailers promotional costs, on occasion, too. Most of the advantages of SBT are on the retailers' side. They don't have to stock perishable items and split the shrink cost with their suppliers. It frees up retailer resources, too. They don't have to keep inventory or manage orders and deliveries.
I have a feeling the retailers Hostess is doing SBT with will be selling thru the product and still paying them per sale.
And Bimbo, who just might take over these sugary snack names, is one of my biggest SBT customers (along with some others mentioned here).
They sound like a logical choice. The product is at their level. I understand Bimbo has its own line of Hispanic themed sweet snacks. They'd probably sell on both sides of the border. Twinquis here we come.

The course aims to provide inter professional learning for those intending to follow a career in Health and Social Care. It would particularly interest those who are not yet committed to one particular career but want a generic course; or who want to use the course as an excellent basis for more specific vocational training, such as social work or occupational therapy. The course would also interest those already working in the sector for where a HND or Degree would enhance their career potential.
As part of your studies you will have the opportunity to apply and participate in the Erasmus exchange scheme, which can lead to you undertaking a full year of studying abroad in your second year. Further information about the scheme can be found by visiting www.cardiffmet.ac.uk/erasmus.
Foundation Year (Year 0):
This programme can incorporate a foundation year (year 0), for those students who aspire to enrol onto the first year of a science based honours degree programme within the Cardiff School of Health Sciences, who have not achieved the standard entry requirements, or who have not studied subjects that provide the necessary background within the scientific disciplines required to enter the first year of the chosen honours degree programme.
Students wishing to undertake the foundation year will apply for the degree programme they intend to progress to, using the relevant UCAS code listed on this course page and apply for entry point 0 on the UCAS website. As such, students following the foundation route will take an extra year to complete their honours degree.
Further information about the foundation year can be found by clicking here.
You will undertake core modules in year one, but be able to choose from eight optional modules in both years two and three (degree students) according to your career needs and aspirations. You are strongly recommended to complete sixty hours minimum per year, voluntary or paid work in the sector, in order to apply learning to practice and to enhance your employability.
Year One (HND & Degree):
Year Two (HND & Degree):
As part of your studies you will have the opportunity to apply and participate in the Erasmus exchange scheme, which can lead to you undertaking a full year of studying abroad in your second year. Further information about the scheme can be found by visiting www.cardiffmet.ac.uk/erasmus

Contact, lectures, seminars and tutorials:
Each subject has two hours of contact time each week. This is divided into a lecture of approximately 40 minutes followed by interactive seminar activities in small groups. For example, following the lecture your group may be given a case study to read and answer questions about; alternatively you may be asked to read a chapter of a book and discuss your ideas in the next seminar.
Our emphasis is on developing the skills you will need in work: problem solving, team working, communication in both written and verbal form. You will be allocated a personal tutor at the start of your course and will meet regularly with them to develop a portfolio of evidence of your skills and knowledge – you will use this later when applying for jobs.
Specifically you will undertake 60 hours of work experience each year and complete 6 reflections on your work experience which you will discuss with your tutor. For a future employer this will demonstrate your ability to integrate theory with practice. In addition to your time in class you will develop the skills to manage and plan your own study time and be an independent learner.
We have developed a range of assessments to develop your professional skills, these include preparing a presentation on the welfare state with a group of fellow students; preparing a planning meeting for a child and family case where you will take a specific role; organising a student conference including speakers and presentations; debating controversial issues such as assisted suicide or child protection; analysing a research paper; as well as examinations (two in the first year) essays and reports.
Our graduates usually find work in the health and social care field in the public, independent and voluntary sector, including the following areas: project management, probation, addictions, mental health, and residential care , dependent upon personal interest and experience. Graduates may also choose to pursue a post graduate qualification, for example in Social Work or Teaching in further/higher education. There are also other graduate opportunities outside health and social care, for example with the police.
For those students undertaking the HND, you can progress to year three of the Degree upon successful completion.

Under U.S.C. 6969 subsection D, a Butt Plug is a tool used by obese women to prevent them from releasing their inherently toxic flatulence (farts) in public. People such as Gail Chord Schuler have claimed that the Butt Plugs have been causing these women to burst due to their farts being trapped in their rectal cavities, but this is absolute nonsense. studies performed by Dr. Allan Lieberman have confirmed that there is no bursting of obese women using the Butt Plugs, with the lone exception of a Texas women whose stomach burst as she attempted to break a world record in doughnut eating.
Thank god Lisa was given her Butt Plug today. It's a shame about her first grade class though, they will be missed.

A term used for the driver who is stopped at a red light in the right hand lane, but is not taking the unprotected right turn. In turn, the driver prevents other people from taking the right turn. Since this person is stopping the "shit" from flowing, he is a buttplug.

This year, OTAs are looking very promising, and there is competition everywhere.
According to Tom Cable, we have had the best OTA attendance he has ever seen, despite Richard Seymour's absence.
One of the more interesting competition is at defensive tackle, mainly because the interior D-line has been a weakness for the Raiders for years.
Here's a look at the players competing to earn a spot on the roster as a defensive tackle.
The Raiders will likely only keep four of these guys. They have been known to only keep three active defensive tackles on the roster in the past, despite running a 4-3 defense.

Greetings, gamers, it's time for another blog from moi. Today is Tuesday, June 8, 2010. The big news for today comes not from gaming, really, but from Hell, I mean, Apple. They've officially announced their iPhone 4.0 and I don't care. I've never supported Apple or its products (I own a Zune HD) and I won't start now. My Droid (and its iterations after it, if Windows Phone 7 does not please me) keeps me plenty entertained and can do what an iPhone can do. I'm not too worried about this and I don't think the world is going to shudder at the thought of another iPhone crashing onto our shores. Apple fans, take it and enjoy...despite just getting a new one 8 months ago.
Last night, I was eagerly trying to find anything that could point towards a Kingdom Hearts 3 announcement at E3 and lo and behold, I found it! I watched the Birth by Sleep secret endings on YouTube and if that isn't a build-up to a 3rd game, I don't know what is anymore. They couldn't have made it anymore clear even if they held up a banner reading, "KH3, ZOMGFTW E3 2010". I may, however, end up as the idiot if they don't announce it. Then you all get an "I told you so" and we can move on. I so desperately want it, though. It will be the sole reason I will own a PS3. For your viewing pleasure, I have added the Japanese w/ English subtitles (because its not out in America, yet) video underneath the blog. Please give those a look and tell me what you think.
Another thing I discovered was that there was an Alan Wake miniseries. Yep, didn't know until today. I'm slow, apparently, because the miniseries PREDATES the game! I feel like an idiot. I got all excited for this only to have it set up a backdrop to a game I've already played. It's like someone showing me the Green Hills Zone background as an in-depth look at Sonic AFTER I've played it. That's a weird analogy, but that's the best I could come up with. Gimme a break. Speaking of Alan Wake, the first DLC, "The Signal" releases in 50 days, so if you haven't finished it...You still have time. I'll include a daily tracker in my future blogs so you don't forget. Another thing about my future blogs is that I'll probably always include a video...probably about what I'm talking about. :P
That's all that really mattered to my today. I should mention that if you haven't played it in a while, you should try and play Kirby's Adventure for the NES. It's probably the most entertaining thing ever. Sometimes. Also, Doom 2 is a cheating whore.

The Westdale Resource
Thirty years of continuous print production is our proud boast.
And in the print industry it's been a particularly demanding time with challenging levels of competition and remarkable - and expensive - technological advances.
Westdale has stayed the course through its flexible programme of multi-million pound investment. So we've not just kept up ... we've kept ahead.
Our new generation of sheet-fed and web offset machines glide effortlessly along 24/7 to ISO 9001 standard delivering high quality commercial colour printing in up to twelve colours across a broad spectrum of short and long runs, low and high pagination brochures and leaflets. Comprehensive reprographic services and a well-equipped bindery mean we have the capability to promise on-time deliveries even on the tightest of turn-around times.
Westdale's environmental programme is equally pro-active and our green credentials are equally advanced with certification for FSC® and PEFC materials. We have also registered to the ISO 14001 Environmental Standard.
But the Westdale resource isn't just about machines and investment. We place heavy emphasis on our trained and trusted workforce supported by effective production practices and rigorous quality controls.
And what exactly motivates us to produce each job as well as we can?
It's because we're planning on a further thirty years of print production.
- ISO 9001 certified

1 answer

1 answer

Q:What kind of maintaining product do you recommend for the synthetic ear pads(surrounds)? I've had mine for about 3yrs and they're starting to dry out, small cracks. -Thanks
1 answer
A:The fully-synthetic/non-leather material we use for the ATH-M50x headphones is made with a vinyl-based or polyurethane-based material that is referred to as "leatherette". To clean leatherette earpads, first you must unplug them from any device. Then, use a small amount of mild-strength fragrance-free detergent and water, and try on a small inconspicuous area first to test results. Please make certain that you do NOT use a detergent that is known to irritate your skin. Also, AVOID using any products containing any amount Bleach, Alcohol, or Ammonia, as they could dry out the material. It is recommended that you do NOT soak the headphones with the cleaning solution; rather, dampen a cloth and try on an inconspicuous area first. Do not "scrub" the headphones; rather, just give a gentle cleaning. After using the recommended cleaning method listed above, please wipe down with a water-dampened cloth. Allow to dry thoroughly before again using your headphones.

Contender Countdown: Voting is over, but who will win Best Picture?
The polls are closed. The votes are being tabulated. Six months after "Gravity" and "12 Years A Slave" premiered within a few days of each other we still don't know for sure which film will win the most coveted film prize in the world, the Academy Award for Best Picture. After 86 editions of Oscar, this race will go down as one of the top 10 closest ever.
Pretty amazing, isn't it?
Back in September, Alfonso Cuarón and Steve McQueen's films were critical darlings, but with the holiday movie season on the way, so were the expected real contenders. Or so we, er, everyone thought.
"Saving Mr. Banks" faltered as it's clear the years of the Academy embracing that type of film are over for now.
"Inside Llewyn Davis" sadly just wasn't liked enough (nothing more painful than that).
"The Wolf of Wall Street" may have arrived a month too late to be a true contender (although Paramount certainly gave it the old college try over the past few weeks).
"Nebraska's" nod was its win and proof of how respected Alexander Payne is in the Academy (even if he couldn't care less about the whole shebang these days).
Let's not even think what would have happened if "Blue Jasmine" made the field. The past month has been a disheartening, confusing and embarrassing mess to everyone but Dylan Farrow. It may have been excrutiatingly worse with a Best Picture nod.
"Dallas Buyers Club" became the surprise party crasher after months of competing studios trying to diminish its impact.
In what may be the most remarkable story of the season, "Her" cracked the field. It might not have made it when the category expanded just four years ago (the glorious benefit of the Academy's attempts to recruit a younger and more diverse membership).
"Captain Phillips" is hands down the survival story of the season.
"Philomena" could have taken the Best Picture race by the throat a decade ago, but now it's just a respected nominee.
And then, of course, there is "American Hustle." The box office hit that just couldn't seem to pass "Gravity" and "12 Years."
Unless "Hustle" makes a miraculous comeback on Sunday, many on Sony's Culver City lot will wonder "What went wrong?" Well, guess what? Maybe nothing did. Maybe "12 Years" and "Gravity" are just two of the more spectacular nominees the Academy have had to consider voting for this century. If "Hustle" does indeed lose, Sony, David O. Russell and his producers may just have to come to grips with the fact that sometimes timing sucks. And in this case, "Hustle" will enjoy a strong fanbase that will sing its praises for years (just wait until it starts airing on pay cable).
Now, you might have wondered why there hasn't been a Contender Countdown over the past a few weeks. It's not just because my responsibilities at HitFix have pulled me away at one time or another. Frankly, not much in the race has changed. After the nominations were announced back in January, the smart bet was to let the guild honors show the path like they have done so many times previously. And yet, every time one film took a step forward, another film would pull up to match it. After snagging the SAG ensemble honor, "American Hustle" was this close to being a contender, but it couldn't even tie for the PGA. That's not a perception of being in second, that's clearly third place. From then it's been "Gravity" vs. "12 Years," just as it was that first weekend in Telluride.
Now, there would be nothing more fitting for both films to repeat their PGA tie on Oscar Sunday. It would be amazing, historic and a truly fitting end to this ride, but it's pretty much impossible. Especially with almost 6,000 members voting and with a preferential ballot. It's just not gonna happen, but boy I wish it would.
One of the more under-appreciated aspects of this year's race is that the studios at the front of the pack most of the time were Warner Bros. and Fox Searchlight. No disrespect to their competitors, but they are arguably the classiest two outfits in the game. I know people at Warner Bros. who love "12 Years." I know people at Searchlight who love "Gravity." And, make no mistake, both sides want to win, but does anyone think that as an artist Steve McQueen doesn't truly respect Alfonso Cuarón's accomplishment? Does anyone think Cuarón doesn't respect McQueen's? There is no animosity. Each film has left its mark.
If only they could leave it together.
Look for complete coverage of the 86th Academy Awards all day Sunday on HitFix and In Contention.

Apparently you don't know the meaning of shot.
It was 2 top 5 WWs ranked by the ring and by boxingscene at the time. Clottey was also a title holder who got stripped cuz he chose to fight Cotto instead of defending his title against Isaac Hlatswayo.
It was a significant fight at WW. Whoever you thought the winner was means was coming off a significant win when Pac fought him.
You can hate and try to be biased all you want but that is the truth. And, is all facts.
Calling somebody shot when they really are not is not facts. Castillo was shot when he fought Alfonso Gomez, that is shot, Roy Jones is shot, Jeff Lacy is shot, Corrales was shot when he fought Clottey, Gatti fighting Gomez=shot. Cotto is not shot, he still has more in him than all those fighters.
He might not be in his prime, he might be passed but is not shot. But, then again just cuz he is passed his prime doens't mean it wasn't a significant with a significant win.

The basic individual is you once the traumas, large and small, have been released from your life. That's something you can achieve through Dianetics and S … [Read more...]

A judge said he will rule next week on Roger Goodell's request to stop Jonathan Vilma's lawyers from deposing the NFL commissioner and obtaining documents related to the New Orleans Saints bounty scandal, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Vilma has filed a defamation of character lawsuit against Goodell in connection to the league's handling of the bounty scandal. Peter Ginsburg, Vilma's lawyer, has subpoenaed Goodell, former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams and former Saints assistant Mike Cerullo.
U.S. Magistrate Daniel Knowles III said late Thursday that he will rule on whether Ginsburg and Vilma's other attorneys can proceed with all of those requests next week.
Earlier Thursday, Ginsberg appeared before Knowles to address the timing of discovery in the lawsuit, arguing that Vilma's team had the right to collect the information in a timely fashion.
Goodell is contending he has the right to resist a requested deposition until after U.S. District Judge Ginger Berrigan rules on his motion to dismiss the defamation action. Vilma and Ginsberg contend that neither the law nor justice tolerates any further delay.
Vilma and Ginsberg also contended that Goodell has neither standing nor basis to stop requests for information from Williams or Cerullo.
Browns linebacker Scott Fujita, meanwhile, is expected to meet Friday with Goodell. Fujita is the last player from the bounty scandal to meet with Goodell after the appeals panel made its decision to lift the suspensions of the four players punished in the bounty scandal.
When the appeal panel vacated the suspension of players in the Saints bounty case on Sept. 7, Berrigan issued an order saying she would take no action on pending matters "at this time." After that order, Ginsberg began sending out subpoenas demanding documents and depositions related to Vilma's defamation claims. Ginsberg has asked to depose Cerullo on Oct. 9, Williams on Oct. 15 and Goodell on Oct. 23.
Knowles suggested the court will resolve the dispute expeditiously.

Even with an onslaught of injuries, the San Francisco 49ers rookie class saw very little of the field in the 2012 regular season.
Regrading said class will certainly prove trying with such limited statistical data.
Only three of the seven total draft picks logged any offensive or defensive snaps. Among those three, just one registered any meaningful action.
The corps of undrafted rookies was as infrequently used as their drafted brethren. A lone member of this group appeared on an official box score for San Francisco.
All told, nine first-year 49ers accumulated 220 total plays. Fourteen more came via returns on special teams.
"Incompletes" will likely dominate the grading because San Francisco already had a relatively complete roster. All 11 starters on defense returned from 2011. An overwhelming majority of the offense came back as well.
General manager Trent Baalke drafted for the depth and for the future. Selecting players for immediate assimilation into NFL life on Sundays wasn't necessarily part of the plan.
Chalk it up as boring, conservative and unimaginative if you'd like. But it really was a prudent approach by a team with so few holes to fill.
(And one that would be devastated by injuries as it turns out).
On that note, let's dole out grades for the 2012 rookies as the 49ers are busy preparing for their first game of the postseason.
Note: All play totals were derived from Pro Football Focus unless otherwise noted.

Dr. Servi tended to my husband when he suffered acute COPD. He was on life support several times before receiving a lung transplant at Tucson UMC. Dr. Servi was exceptional throughout my husband's illness. We never would have gotten the transplant without his wonderful care and perseverance. He was not only attentive, but very caring. I had four additional wonderful years with my husband that I never would have had, had it not been for Dr. Servi.
Exceptionally knowledgeable physician. Helped me immensely with a life-threatening lung abscess resulting from bronchiectasis and reactive airway disease. Performed two bronchoscopies, with resection. Very reasonable man, willing to spend time with me and treat me as an intelligent person, sharing pros and cons of possible treatments. Definitely would recommend him.
My overall experience with this doctor was very poor. I was so desperate to have a pulmonary doctor look at my airways because it felt as though I had something stuck and he was available asap. BIG MISTAKE!! If I had a second chance I would have canceled my broncscopy. Don't make the same mistake I made!!

PACE Vermont Inc., which provides nursing, nutritional, home and transportation services to more than 100 seniors in Rutland and Colchester, announced Friday that it could no longer afford to operate in Vermont.
While the program has proved successful in other states during the last three decades, the program failed financially in Vermont where difficulties attracting new clients hurt the organization's attempts to offset expenses, according to a company statement.
The pending closing will require roughly 130 seniors to find other service providers such as visiting nursing organizations and will leave about 85 PACE Vermont employees without jobs.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON A North Bennington man who had worked as a crossing guard for the Village School of...

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. - Researchers say they may have the final clues needed to solve the mystery of the Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley, which never resurfaced after it became the first sub in history to sink an enemy warship, taking its eight-man crew to a watery grave.
Scientists said last month that the Hunley apparently was less than 20 feet away from the Housatonic when the crew ignited a torpedo that sank the Union blockade ship off South Carolina in 1864. That means it may have been close enough for the crew to be knocked unconscious by the explosion, long enough that they may have died before awakening.

A's send down Tommy Milone
Milone frank when describing his outing against Rangers
Tommy Mione has a 3.67 ERA in Oakland, but a 5.00 ERA on the road. (USA TODAY IMAGES)
Evan Scribner is 0-0 with a 5.30 ERA in 18.2 innings for the A's this year. (USA TODAY IMAGES)
OAKLAND -- Evan Scribner received a phone call in his Sacramento hotel room at 8:30 Saturday morning.
"We need you today," A's manager Bob Melvin told the then-triple A relief pitcher. "Pack your stuff."
Scribner packed, jumped in his car, battled weekend traffic and arrived at the O.co Coliseum in time for stretch as he and left-handed starter Tommy Milone switched places on the 25-man roster.
With the A's having off days next Monday and Thursday, a fifth starter is not needed for awhile. And with Milone's troubles on the mound lately contributing to a taxed A's bullpen, the move made sense for the parent club.
"With (Dan) Otero, who's been our length guy, throwing as many pitches as he did yesterday we're using (Jesse) Chavez a bit differently now," Melvin said. "So you get into an extra-inning game today, you don't want to get caught short.
"When you're sending a guy like Tommy Milone down, it means you have some good pitching. And we do."
Milone took the loss Friday night after giving up six runs in 3 2/3 innings.
[RECAP: Rangers 8, A's 3]
"I haven't really pulled my weight lately," Milone said.
"They didn't really say anything they wanted me to work on specifically, but I kind of have an idea, just based on performances and how I've pitched. I've just got to be more consistent."
Said Melvin: "We still have a lot of confidence in Tommy and he's still a big part of this team. He's just not here right now."
This is Scribner's third tour with the A's this season. The right-hander has 12 appearances with Oakland and a 5.30 ERA without a decision. In Sacramento, Scribner was 1-1 with a 2.48 ERA in 25 appearances with the Triple-A River Cats.
"He's a very versatile bullpen piece," Melvin said.
Scribner was on the A's Opening Day roster and acknowledged the frustration associated with being shuttled back and forth.
"It's always fun to pack up your whole life in an hour," Scribner said with a smile. "But I'm used to it by now."

Little side project. I want to build a vertical stabilizer arm for my Glidecam camcorder stabilizer. The theory is similar to the Steadicam. Picture a 10"x3" parallelogram pinned with bearings at the corners. Long dimension is horizontal. One 3" side is fixed and the other floats and holds the Glidecam. A spring runs diagonally between the top end of the fixed side to the bottom of the floating side. The moving parts of the arm weigh 2 lbs and when level the COG is 7" from the fixed end. The Camcorder and Glidecam weigh 4.2 lb and the COG is 12.75" from the fixed end.
How do I figure out which spring to use to just maintain the arm slightly above level? If the spring rate is to high the stabilization effect will be diminished and if to low it won't recover fast enough. The spring can't be longer than 6" with no tension and will need about 3.5" of extension to allow the arm to move from 30 degrees above to 30 degrees below level. There will also be an adjustment screw to pretension the spring.
Hi Glenn,
I'm sure I could figure out the answer to this problem if it wasn't 2 am! If no one has solved it for you by tomorrow I'll have a go (let me know if I forget).
Best wishes,

It's not the answer to your question, but it might be interesting for you:
Please put a sketch in the dropbox after you make it. I would like to add one to my (never completed) project list.
Kevin Gallimore
I have already found that and used it to rework the Glidecam. The Glidecam is basically the front end of a Steadicam. With a gimbal and counterweights it uses balance spreading to give the camcorder some stability. I addeded an aluminum camera sled and threaded and knurled counterweights to make it less bulky and aid in balance adjustment. Works great for roll and yaw but I want to mount it on the rail of a sailboat so I need to deal with bouncing and vibration. That is what the arm is for. Just can't swing $20K for a mount for a $1K camcorder. :-)
I'll assume that the 6" rest length and 3.5" max extension are due to unmentioned constraints because that's too short for the geometry. The spring will need a "dead" extension -- a link or piece of wire 2.29" long.
The load moment at level is 67.55 lbf*in. With the 10" member horizontal the diagonal spring is at a 16.7 deg angle from horizontal. It will therefore need to exert 23.5 lbf to balance at level. Extension at horizontal is 2.15", so spring constant k is 10.93 lbf/inch. To balance "slightly above" level the spring constant will need to be "slightly greater".
Thanks! That may give me enough to navigate McMaster's spring selection.
I actually have about 9" of room but I wanted the no load length 6" or less to allow for extension and the adjustment mechanism.
Trying to set this up in a spreadsheet. Is the spring force the moment/(Sin(A)*arm length)?
Glenn Ashmore wrote:
There are a couple of other things to consider here, if you haven't already. One is damping. With bearings at the corners, your mount will be very free and in constant motion. One good bump and your camera will be bobbing like one of those silly car rear window statues. You'll need some form of (adjustable) friction.
Another is accelerations. Given the size of your boat, they will be pretty small, I'd guess. So you won't have a problem with your mount bottoming out. But the mount might be too stiff for the small accelerations that you will have. You could calculate the deflections that you will have, given the geometry and Don's spring constant, but I don't know what numbers you'd use for the accelerations.
Hmm - it just occurred to me that the way to think about your mount is as a high frequency filter. Of the spectrum of frequencies that the boat is moving at, you want to camera to only move at low frequencies. The camera/mount frequency is mostly a matter of the spring constant: high spring constant equals high frequency. A lower spring constant means more extension, means a longer horizontal arm. The gotcha, of course, is *how* low the frequency needs to be and how to calculate the spring constant and geometry from that. I'm sure that there's an ME reading this that can help.
Don't you just hate it when the problem becomes *much* more complicated that you thought it was. Sorry about that.
Thanks to same day delivery from McMaster I cobbled together the first prototype last night. I quickly figured out that the spring rate and initial tension are critical. A rate of 10 lb/in is way to fast. It is not sensitive enough to prevent the camera moving. Had to cut back to a 5.29 rate with a 6.41 initial tension. Preloaded the spring to 17 pounds and the arm settled at about 5 degrees up. Rapidly moving the fixed side up and down 7-8" the camera stayed at the same level but when I moved it up and stopped the camera followed a bit to quickly and overshot. It needs to approach the equilibrium point more slowly.
I think I need a rate of about 4.5 to 4.8 and ideally with a higher initial tension but McMaster doesn't have one in that range that will fit in the available space and I don't think you can increase the initial tension and lower the rate at the same time.
Many thanks to Don for the formula. With it working things out on a spread sheet greatly eased the design.
Resonant frequency is determined only by springrate, regardless of initial tension. One possibility might be to use a torsion spring, like a clock spring or the spring from a recoil starter on a small engine. You can wind in a lot of initial tension without needing a lot of space.
Another possibility might be to add a "negator" spring. Those are dished flat strips that wind onto a roller, provide an essentially constant pull rate regardless of extension. It could provide some of the bias tension, enabling use of a soft spring to make up the difference. The springrate of a negator is nearly zero; it's more like a counterweight but without the mass. That and a soft helper spring would provide very low resonance frequency.
AxMan Surplus sometimes has those. I'll look when I next visit. They're about 2 bux if they have 'em.
It sounds like you about have it, though. A little dashpot damper would cure your overshoot. Just a plastic or metal cylinder with a leaky piston -- like a screendoor closer without the spring. You can also make a torsional viscous damper with a disc in a cavity filled with grease. Somebody, perhaps Airpot, used to make little glass cylinder dampers with graphite pistons. Very smooth, no stiction, last forever. Yeah, it *is* Airpot! http://www.airpot.com /
What a viscous damper does is offer resistance that is proportional to velocity. That quells overshoot. The reason your car doesn't continue to bounce after hitting a bump, even though it is a spring mass system with a resonant frequency, is viscous dampers AKA "shock absorbers" though they are exactly the opposite. They transmit abrupt shock but offer very little resistance to slow motion. In the UK they are called "dampers".
