Taylor Wilson has been called "The Boy Who Played With Fusion" by Popular Science magazine. At age 9, Wilson stunned tour guides at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, with his complex understanding of rocket science. At 12, he set out to make a "star in a jar." By 14, Wilson had become the youngest person to achieve nuclear fusion with a working reactor. Built in his parents' garage, the deuterium-hurling device is now housed in the physics department of the University of Nevado, Reno.
At TED2013, Wilson made his second appearance on the TED stage, above. Now 19, he arrived with a bold new idea — a way to make nuclear energy safe and portable, on a scale where it has the potential to address the global energy crisis. In today's talk, Wilson shares his latest innovation — Small Modular Fission Reactors. These reactors are small, meaning that they can be built in factories and shipped around the globe. They run on already-molten material, so meltdowns won't be an issue. They're installed three meters underground, making them hard to tamper with, and yet, in the event of a disaster, the core can be drained to a tank underneath, stopping the reaction. And while traditional nuclear power plants run for 18 months before needing refueling, the small-scale versions could run for up to 30 years, after which they could be sealed for discarding.

how does an image formed by a cylindrical lens look like?by fisico30 Tags: cylindrical, formed, image, lens |
Apr17-12, 07:24 AM
Hello forum,
I have been trying to understand how a cylindrical lens (plano cylindrical) forms images. The images are blurred, smeared, only in one direction. I know that this type of lens focuses parallel rays to a focal line instead of to a focal point.... So the smearing occurs along the direction of the focal line, correct? for instance, if we look at some text through this type of lens, it will look stretched.... I have heard of spherocylindrical lenses: a lens in the shape of a football has two orthogonal meridians with different nonzero powers. A regular cylindrical lens has one of the meridians with zero power.... I have seen a picture of a sphercylindrical lens having one surface spherical and the other cylindrical....how does this lens shape compare to the football shape? do the perform the same way? Spherocylindrical lenses have two orthogonal focal lines... thanks fisico30 |

The best policy is always honesty. Talk to your friend and let him know you're concerned that you won't be able to focus on his wedding as much as he might want you to. Find out how much time and effort he actually expects you to contribute; you might find out that it's completely do-able. But if not, perhaps you can be a groomsman instead of best man. If that still seems too much, just let him know you don't want to let him down by not pulling your weight as part of the wedding party, but you'll be there supporting him as a guest. He should understand; after all, he's dealing with planning stress right now, too.

Definition of macron in English:
Syllabification: ma·cronPronunciation: /ˈmāˌkrän, ˈmak-, ˈmākrən
- A written or printed mark (¯) used to indicate a long vowel in some languages and phonetic transcription systems, or a stressed vowel in verse.More example sentences
- As in the transliteration of Sanskrit, the macron over the letter indicates that the sound of the vowel is lengthened, thus kan is pronounced 'koh-an', with the emphasis on the first syllable.
- However, diphthongs and macrons are seldom used in modern Romanji to differentiate the vowels with multiple sounds (like the long O).
- We are, just barely, in Kaneohe (which might really be Kane'ohe, but none of the maps have the macrons, so I've given up using them anywhere).
mid 19th century: from Greek makron, neuter of makros 'long'.

'Hobbit' Star Martin Freeman: 'I'm Geek Royalty Now'
At the film's New York premiere, the English actor who plays Bilbo Baggins joked with THR about his cult fame.
The fans lined up outside the Ziegfeld Theater in Midtown Manhattan on a chilly Thursday night were not just there to cheer a movie premiere; they also were witnessing a coronation.
Already well-loved by genre devotees for his lead role in the 2005 adaptation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and co-starring as Watson in the BBC series Sherlock, Martin Freeman cemented his status as nerd hero by taking on the iconic role of Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit. At the premiere of the first film in Peter Jackson's trilogy, Freeman was happy to acknowledge his advancement.
"I'm geek royalty now," he said with a laugh. "That's the main responsibility. It's not playing Bilbo, it's my responsibility as a geek prince."
STORY: Peter Jackson Details His Desperate Obsession With Casting Martin Freeman in 'The Hobbit'
Already, his subjects are putting him to work. Fans lined up not just outside the theater but also at the barriers of the cross-town restaurant where Warner Bros. held the film's afterparty. Some hardcore fans of Jackson's films, and J.R.R. Tolkien's original book series, even paid $500 to get into the premiere, with the money benefiting the American Film Institute. Many stalked around, hoping for a photo with their hero or perhaps to have him sign their copy of the book. Finally, 75 years after Tolkien first published The Hobbit, his vast audience had a vision of what a young Bilbo looks like.
Freeman, though, didn't read the books growing up.
"I came to it as an adult for this," the 41-year-old said. "It was nice coming to it that way around, actually. In a way, it decreased the pressure. I think if I had been carrying that around since I was 10, that would have been quite overwhelming by the time I grew up. My being here would be overwhelming. As it was, it was more exciting than scary."
And not just exciting but rather easy, too. Jackson told reporters Wednesday that he was desperate to cast Freeman in the role -- no other actor could play it, he insisted -- and while his star didn't totally agree with the flattering opinion, he said he didn't have much trouble embodying the nervous, unlikely, furry-footed hero.
Film Review: 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey'
"I didn't find it hard," Freeman said with a shrug. "I think the hardest part about anything you do for 18 months is just keeping yourself together for 18 months. But I do think I'm quite good casting for it. I don't think I'm the only one, but as a candidate, I think I was pretty good casting."
So good, in fact, that he's prepared for it to follow him forever.
"I hope by the time my life is over I've given them something else to talk about," he said of the fans, "but I think in all reality I think it's very likely that they'll be calling me Bilbo."

I had a great time in Atlanta. Kyle's loft is really roomy and he goes the extra mile to make sure his guests are comfortable.
The guide was super useful, and leaving the breakfast foods was a nice touch.
The area is really interesting. There's a lot going on in the loft community and the surrounding area. Check out Krog Street and the MLK center.
I'd definitely consider staying again on a return to Atlanta.
This loft. Wow. It's ridiculously beautiful, but the best part was definitely the neighborhood. Multiple people were really surprised that some visitors were staying in such a non-touristy hood. Lots of great places to visit, and a very real feel to it.
I really can't think of any complaints. It was a very amazing trip - and it has made me consider moving to Atlanta! We enjoyed the trip so much we even blogged about it. (website hidden)
Thanks, Kyle, for an awesome place to stay!
Kyle was very friendly and easy to communicate with and his loft was unique and cozy. It was a fun place to call home for a few days...steps away from the Beltline, great restaurants, bars and sites. Clean place, with big white fluffy towels, and we loved the duel sinks in the bathroom. Would definitely stay at Kyle's place again!
My wife and I recently stayed in Kyle's Old Fourth Ward Loft. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The loft is exactly as pictured and Kyle was very easy to get in touch with. The loft is very convenient to everything we wanted to do. I will definitely check back with Kyle first before renting anything else in the Atlanta area!
We spent 3 wonderful days in Atlanta at Kyle's loft in the old Fourth Quarter. Kyle is an excellent host. We were unsure whether we'd get to meet him, but we arrived to his cheerful greeting, and really helpful advice about the neighbourhood.
Firstly, the loft itself is in a truly unique setting. We loved experiencing a few days in a remarkably redesigned old warehouse space. Atlanta was a bit chilly at the time, but you wouldn't know it from inside the apartment. Kyle ensured that all regular home comforts were available, and maintains a clean & comfy home.
Secondly, the neighbourhood is fantastic. This was our first trip to the Atlanta and the South. We didn't want the usual force-fed tourist experience, but did want to be close enough to key features of the city. Kyle's location delivered in spades! The general neighbourhood is going through major urban redesign that's aimed at improving liveability in an old part of town. We used the nearby Belt Line to walk to almost everywhere of interest. Had the weather been better it'd be great for cycling too. Lots of excellent cages and eating places along the way too.
Thirdly, our main focus in Atlanta was the Martin Luther King Center and the Carter Presidential Library & Museum. Both are within easy walking distance of the loft, and are truly worth visiting.
So, if you're interested in a break in an up-and-coming part of Atlanta, which has a lot of really good energy in the neighbourhood, and is close to heaps of great attractions, we'd highly recommend Kyle's loft!
This was my first experience with airbnb. That experience was one if excellence. I am truly encouraged to do it again. It was easy to communicate with Kyle, and the opportunity to go back to a home instead of a hotel made my get away that much better. The area we stayed was up and coming with great resteraunts and bars. The house Kyle provided was very modern, neat and well maintained.
Overall Kyle made our experience very enjoyable. Great guy.
Kyle's place was super clean just like the photos. He goes the extra mile with abundant high quality towels, texts to make sure you get in okay, and even a new bar of soap. The place is spacious and in great condition. Kyle's place is great for folks who don't like cramped hotels, would like to rent bikes to see the city, and would like to be very near the action without being right in the middle of it. The parking was gated at night and very easy to use.
Kyle's place is great! The loft is clean and has everything that one could need. It is located in a really cool part of Atlanta and is adjacent to Atlanta's Beltline which offers a great way to get to shops, eats, etc. on your bike, walking etc. without dealing with cars, or simply to get a good workout. We had a great experience here and definitely recommend it!
This stay was incredible! I can't stress how nice this loft, and surrounding area was!
The old cotton warehouse that houses this loft has been completely re-done into an artsy, hipster, upscale joint. You can really go exploring around the loft area. The roof top patio was a plus! It was nice to go up there for some fresh air and check out the skyline.
There are multiple trails near by to run, walk, and cycle. Serpas is almost attached to the loft building -- Some really fine upscale dinning / drinks. The loft is right down the road from little 5 points (multiple bars, and things to do).
Kyle put a lot of work into this loft. It was super cozy. The bed, couch, kitchen, and bathroom were all 5 stars.
Kyle did a really good of communicating information on the loft, and replying within a few hours of my questions. He checked up on us twice just to make sure everything was ok.
Superb host.
I will be back to his loft for sure!
Kyle's apartment is awesome. Everything was clean, and was furnished really nicely. Parking was never an issue, and the area felt really safe. I'd definitely stay here again if I make it back down to Atlanta. Very close and convenient to everywhere I needed to go.

Cafeteria Plan
Effective January 1, 2008, legislation requires that employees be offered the opportunity to have their medical insurance costs reduced from their paycheck as a pre-tax deduction. The University of Missouri-Extension has worked with ASI to develop a boilerplate Cafeteria Plan document that counties can adopt to cover the county secretary health plan. Data from each county was collected to complete a county specific Cafeteria Plan Document from the boilerplate.
In October 2007, all County Program Directors were provided the "Extension" Cafeteria Plan document to present to their respective County Councils for review and approval. Each Council needed to sign the Cafeteria Plan document, retain the original of that form on file in the county office, and mail a copy to Secretary Benefits Coordinator's office.
If a county currently offered a cafeteria plan, and the Council was satisfied with the current plan, then they did not need to complete the "Extension" 2008 Cafeteria Plan Document. However, the Council was and is still legally required to keep a copy of the Plan Document in the county office files. Councils were requested to send a copy of the plan document they currently use to the Secretary Benefits Coordinator's office.
Additionally each county secretary enrolled in the MCHCP health care plan was required to complete the Enrollment Opt-In or Opt-Out form. The original of the Enrollment Opt-In or Opt-Out form should be retained in the county office files and a copy sent to the County Secretary Benefits Coordinator's office.
This form should also be completed by any additional secretaries/county employees who are hired and choose to enroll in the MCHCP medical insurance.
The Enrollment Plan selection will automatically renew each January 1 and remain in effect through the calendar year. During the initial (or automatic renewal) period, the agreement will be irrevocable and cannot be changed except under special circumstances as outlined in the Summary Plan Description.
To change and existing Enrollment Form, the secretary will need to complete a new form prior to December 31st of each year. The new form will need to be retained in the county office files and a copy sent to the County Secretary Benefits Coordinator's office.

The Hubert Butler Annual Lecture
This years Hubert Butler lecture came courtesy of Misha Glenny, the British journalist and historian who has written at length about Sarajevo and the worst European war of the past half century.
As is customary for the Hubert Butler Lecture at this stage, St. Canice's Cathedral was packed to capacity for Glenny's talk. Introduced by Olivia O'Leary, Glenny acknowledged the influence of Hubert Butler on his own work and stated that he took his first trip to the Balkans with Butler's writings under his arm. Glenny spoke passionately and intelligently about the fallout from a war that he claimed was not about only nationalism but 'a state waging war against part of its citizenry'. He also spoke about the violent incidents of the past decade which he suggests indicates a residual conflict that might yet come to the fore in the Balkans.
The latter part of the talk focused on how the various Balkan states have functioned economically and what the effect of the current financial situation on Europe could have on them. It was an engaging and illuminating talk about the aftermath of a conflict that still lingers strong in the memory.
Concluding, Glenny focused on our current situation and stated 'This is not a Balkan crisis. This is not a European crisis. This is a global crisis'.

I am always amazed when filmmakers turn real-life events into harrowing cinematic thrill rides. I shouldn't get so wrapped up in these films because I know how the story ends before I ever step into the theater. That's the theory, but prior knowledge doesn't seem to matter to truly great filmmakers. They know how put me on the edge of my seat and make me worried about what will happen next, even when I already know what's coming.
The latest film to do this is "Captain Phillips" from director Paul Greengrass. This is the real life story about the captain of the Maersk Alabama. In 2009, Somali pirates attacked Phillips' ship and took him as a hostage he was while transporting relief supplies in the seas around Africa. This is the story of how that pirate attack led to a kidnapping which led to a military action by US Special Forces. All the while, Captain Phillips' life hung in the balance.
I recall thinking during the film that there was no way Phillips could survive this ordeal, even though I knew that the man was speaking to our Chamber of Commerce in just a few days. This movie is so good that I became convinced that the speaker must be an imposter, as the real Captain Phillips must have surely died in the ordeal.
Credit much of this to a couple of superb acting performances. The marquee name is Tom Hanks, who delivers one of the most accomplished performances of his already storied career. His Captain Phillips isn't just a cardboard stereotype, but rather a flesh and blood man who is both desperate and determined to save his crew from the pirates.
The other acting performance of note comes from newcomer Barkhad Adbi, playing the leader of the pirates. Adbi is a physically slight man, but desperation and determination also play out in his desire to kidnap the crew and collect a quick ransom. These two men are at odds with each other and they spend most of the movie doing a complicated dance as they try to achieve their goals. If nothing else, "Captain Phillips" is a great character study of these two men.
The acting is very good, but it's director Paul Greengrass who deserves the lion's share of the credit here. He's starts the movie off with a bare whiff of character backstory before plunging us head-first into the tense kidnapping drama. He ratchets up the tension as the movie progresses, taking his cameras in even tighter until it feels like everything is about to burst.
If I have a quibble, it's that your bladder might also burst, as the film runs 2 ¼ hours and is filled with plenty of the nausea-inducing shaky camera moves which have become Greengrass' cinematic calling card. Those of you with tiny bladders and a tendency for seasickness might want to take precautions, but the rest of the world will simply need to buckle up for a tension-filled high seas drama that will leave you exhausted, but ultimately satisfied by this remarkable film.
Movie reviews by Sean, "The Movie Guy," are published bi-weekly in "The Port Arthur News" and seen weekly on KFDM-TV and KBOI 2-TV. Sean welcomes your comments via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Fortresse de Chinon
Fortresse de Chinon Review
This vast fortress with walls 400 yards long dates from the time of Henry II of England, who died here in 1189, and his warring wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine, both buried at Fontevraud. Two centuries later the castle witnessed an important historic moment: Joan of Arc's recognition of the disguised dauphin, later Charles VII.
Once little more than ruins completely open to the elements, Chinon's majestic rooftop, ramparts, and towers have been carefully restored. A visitor center welcomes guests a few steps from the glass elevator that provides direct access from the center of Chinon's Old Town. Visitors can tour the Logis Royal (Royal Chambers), a section of which has been transformed into an interactive museum dedicated to Joan of Arc. For a fine view of the region, climb the Tour Coudray (Coudray Tower), where in 1307 leading members of the crusading Knights Templar were imprisoned before being taken to Paris, tried, and burned at the stake. The Tour de l'Horloge (Clock Tower), whose bell has sounded the hours since 1399, has a view over the ensemble of buildings, and there are sensational views from the ramparts over Chinon, the Vienne Valley, and, toward the back of the castle, the famous vineyard called Le Clos de l'Echo. A restaurant is open on the terrace from July through September.

What are some important political events in Hamlet?
1 Answer | add yours
- the conquest of Norwegian lands by King Hamlet - In Act I, Scene 1, Horatio alludes to the battle between King Fortinbras of Norway and King Hamlet of Denmark in which King Hamlet slays Fortinbras and lands of Norway were forfeited. Now, Prince Fortinbras has "Sharked up a list of lawless resolutes.../to recover...by strong hand/those foresaid lands." But, because of negotiations between King Claudius and Fortinbras's uncle who is king in Norway, young Fortinbras agrees to cease hostilities in Denmark, but he does seek safe passage through Denmark to Poland.
- the death of King Hamlet - The regicide of Hamlet's father is pivotal to the plot of Shakespeare's play. For, it is what incites Hamlet to vow to avenge his father and to investigate the marriage of his mother to his uncle as well as to attack the corruption in the Danish court with Polonius, Rosencratz and Guildenstern.
- Laertes threatens to overthrow the Danish government before he joins King Claudius in his heinous plot to kill Hamlet. With this added situation, Hamlet is finally impelled to action as he declares that there is "something rotten in the state of Denmark," and he asserts his identity in Act V, scene 1: "This is I, Hamlet the Dane."
In Hamlet there are two events that affect the political state of Denmark:
There is also another potential political situation:

The rooms and hotel are nice. Rooms are difficult to get to.
Valet parking/staff - see below. TV is not very easy to operate.
Our valet parking experience was horrible. 1st the lady who checked us in said there was no way to call down for our car. When we later found out we could call, Valet told us our car would be ready in 10-15 mins. It was 45 mins when we got our car, making us late for our appointments. All of our valet experiences were so bad we finally parked on the street. We were not the only guests with this issue.Fastest elevator ever. Friendly staff.
Location was not great for Mardi Gras. Would have preferred to be closer. Parking was expensive and you could not eat at the restaurants late at night.
Banging on our door ALL night long was horrible! Valet was backed up took over 20 minutes just to get to front door and another 20 minutes when we left!! Overnight valet parking was outrageous but I'm sure prices jumped due to Mardi Gras.
Will NEVER stay here again!Very nicely decorated
The elevator system worked off and on
It was beautiful, very clean. Staff was extremely nice and friendly.
The breakfast buffet was a little expensive but the food was great.
Great price for this high quality hotel. Room was large, beautifully decorated, had a fridge and safe, and wonderful linens. Looking over the atrium balcony was fun as was the glass elevator ride. Top notch security system for elevators and rooms.
Hotel is a little far from French quarter, but within walking distance or easy cab ride. Price and quality of room makes up for closeness to French quarter.
Valet Parking attendants were fabulous.This place is gorgeous. Plenty of great places to eat, very close to the French Quarter ($7.00 cab ride or 15-20 minute walk) Loved every thing about it.
Not a thing....
The hotel was sleek & modern; $10 cab ride to the quarter! Great view of the city from our hotel room (8th floor)! Overall, no complaints!
View was great. Check in staff was almost rude. No place to park and check in unless you use their parking.
No space to park and check in. Parking was high.
Hotel is nice, clean and quite. Beds are comfortable.

Wednesday Workout Update
Posted Feb 06 2013 6:00am
Well, it was bound to happen - the bad run. We set out to do 10 miles on Saturday morning, and we accomplished it, but not without some struggle. We ran in a group of five, and started out too fast for me. No one's fault, really - we were all pretty pepped up and excited and just took off. But I have to run my first mile, sometimes two, really slow in order to get myself situated for the long haul. Otherwise, I don't get my breathing calmed down, and I end up chasing my running groove the entire time. And that's what happened on Saturday - I never settled in, struggled through too many miles, and was not a happy camper right around mile 9. However, I did my intervals exactly as the Gymboss beeped - I ran when I was supposed to, and I walked when I was supposed to - and this was a vast improvement over the long runs in the past where I struggled and ended up walking most of them. So the bummed feelings were there, but the body cooperated, and I finished.
And afterward? One of our runners, who had been out for the entire month of January and therefore only
ran 4 miles, went to Starbucks after she came in and brought back a coffee Traveler for us - oooh, that hit the spot on a cold morning! I was alternating sips of coffee and Gatorade and felt like a new woman after that!
Much later, Jeff and I went out for our weekly frozen yogurt treat. I had Kona coffee yogurt with carob chips and it was delicious! I meant to take a picture of my pretty creation before I started to eat it, but I didn't even make it to the table before I had my first bite!
Ten fingers for 10 miles! I complained about the bags under my eyes when I saw this shot, but Jeff reminded me that I'd been up since 4:30 that morning...oh, and had run 10 miles. Have I mentioned that? ;)
This coming Saturday we're only
running 3.1 miles - yes, a 5K - the first one of our short racing season. I'm really looking forward to this distance!
Here's a funny motivational poster that made me laugh - I identified with it because my brain turns to mush on long runs and have had some very disjointed thoughts similar to these:
I DO like pancakes...
Exercise bike has been going well - Monday I bumped it up to 30 minutes and I'll do the same today. Slowly but surely, I'm making my way toward 45 minutes on it! I've also discovered that if I put on my workout clothes right away instead of lounging around in my pajamas as I drink my coffee, I'm much quicker to get on the bike once the caffeine hits my system.
Changing up my planks to two 45-second ones seems pretty easy - I guess I need to add a third one? Somewhere in my mind, it's decreed that planks must be difficult. Am I alone in this thinking, or does anyone else have these random "musts" associated with certain exercises?

Drilling Operations
The alignment between the headstock and tailstock of the lathe enables you to drill holes that are precisely centered in a cylindrical piece of stock. I tried doing this once with my drill press and vise before I had the lathe; it did not turn out too well.
Before you drill into the end of a workpiece you should first face the end as described in the facing operations section. The next step is to start the drill hole using a center drill - a stiff, stubby drill with a short tip. If you try to drill a hole without first center drilling, the drill will almost certainly wander off center, producing a hole that is oversized and misaligned. We hate that!
Center drills come in various sizes such as #00, #0, #1 - #5, etc. You can purchase sets of #1-#5 for under $5.00 on sale from several suppliers.
Preparing to Drill
Before drilling you need to make sure that the drill chuck is firmly seated in the tailstock. With the chuck arbor loosely inserted in the tailstock bore, crank the tailstock bore out about 1/2". Lock the tailstock to the ways, then thrust the... [continues]

Website to buy roof rack keys
I just placed an order for a key for my Toyota roof rack on Lost A Key. They seem to have every key number for the roof racks, just search for "Toyota roof rack" and then whatever number your key is : example "Toyota roof rack 23" brought me to the one I needed. They are out of Illinois, and shipping to me in PA was $.80 so it should be that bad to anywhere. My grand total with shipping was $11 and some change.
If you need a roof rack key, I would check this out. I'll post how the key works when it gets here. |

The Living Dead in Lurgan - your replies
Article contributed by James Gracey. (August 2004)
Add a new article contribute your article to the site
Alfredo - Feb '08 This is an extremely uplifting story for a man like me, married with depressions :)
Timothy Green - Feb '08 I heard this story years ago on Sunday Miscellany, an interesting programme on RTÉ Radio One. I came to it again today from an article on the front page of h2g2:
Mary - Apr '07 Have only just heard this story - was sceptical - and told to look up the web - am just gob smacked and my worst fear just made even worse - made up my mind for me - I want to be cremated.....
Victoria Magee - Feb '07 Today the inscription on the grave is not as clear as in the picture but it is still readable, I live beside this graveyard and as a child we were told to stay out of it as Margorie would get ya . Another part of the story goes that she out lived her husband and conceived a child after her trip to the graveyard. I don't no if this is fact but it adds to this already interesting story.
Linda Crooks - Jan '07 I love this story my gran told us about her when we were kids. We used to hide behind the curtains and shout "Its me its me its Margorie" and jump out! I've carried on the tradition with my kids and they love the story too. A couple of years ago I brought a friend of mine from England around the graveyard to show her Margorie's grave but I couldn't find it so I sending this article to her now. she'll believe me now!
Joanne Dodds - Nov '06 As a small child growing up in Lurgan town, the story of Margorie Mc Call was one that we all knew well. My friends and I went many times to vist Shankill Graveyard. The graves themselves are very old with lots of cracks and holes. VERY SPOOKY! Margorie's house is still standing in Church Place Lurgan, not far from the Graveyard all these years later in 2006!
Joy - June 06 That is a very cool story!
Kathleen Mc Crory, Canada - Jan '06 Thank you for reviving one of the old stories of Lurgan. I came from Aghagallon, just outside of Lurgan, and remember my father telling me that story, which at the time I thought to be folklore. Esther Buckley - Jan '06 I too remember my grandmother (Ellen "Baby" McKinley) telling us this story when we were growing up (I was born in Union Street). I'm currently researching my family tree and came across this story by chance when looking up Lurgan Cemetery. I was always convinced this was a true story even though others I related it to laughed - I now have the proof and unfortunately for poor Margorie, was very pleased to read it! God rest her soul. Scott McBride - Nov 05 I was researching some articles about Lurgan for a history homework when I came across the article about Marjorie McCall. I couldn't help but read it. I've heard this story from my Great Grandmother who is 95 and still lives in Lurgan.
[perhaps your grandmother might have a few stories we could add to the site? Ed.]
Stephanie Roland - June '05 Hello, I'm from Lurgan myself and I am 21 years old, I have heard a lot of different versions of this story and was pleased to see the proper story here. I have to say that I didnt think it was that long ago but I'm glad it was in the olden days and not modern times!!!!
Kerry - April 05 this is so scary !
CAELON - April 05 I THINK THIS IS A VERY SCAREY THING TO READ BUT ONLY I AM THE AGE THAT I CAN STICK IT WHICH OTHER CHILDREN CANT THANKS FOR THE PASSAGE OF THIS STORY CAELON ALSO I THINK THAT U SHOULD GET A PASSAGE ON ALEXANDERA CUBAGES GRAVE THAT GOT HIS HEAD TOOK OFF BY A TRAIN THAT IS ALSO BURRIED IN SHANKILL GRAVYARD
Brian Cunningham - March 05 Very interesting story ineed! Thank goodness the poor woman wasn't laid to rest in the sea!
Jimmy - December '04 I was told, that after the death of John McCall, Margorie married a man named McGaw,and that she is actually buried further down Shankill cemetery, I checked, there is a McGaw buried, in the section near to the railway lines.
Allison - September '04 This story is quite spooky. I'm from Portadown and my granda used to tell me this story when I was wee. I thought he was just making it up!!
Dawn - August '04 As a child, I recall my mother telling me of such tale. I enjoyed the reading! Interestingly enough, all my family including my mother, is buried in Shankill Graveyard.
Edie - August '04 I thought this story was well written and informative. As a child I lived in Shankill Grave yard and visited this grave often. So seeing this article was nice!
Sonia Wood - August '04 Most interesting and nicely written on a subject that could be either a source of too much seriousness or not enough.
Frazer - August '04 About five years ago in Trinity College in Dublin they were laying some pipes in Front Square. When they were digging they uncovered a mass grave, I think there were about 90 bodies in it. They concluded that they had been there for about 150 years and were bodies stolen from other graves in the city. Apparently it was quite common for medical students at the time to rob graves for the cadavers. I think it was the only way they could get their hands on them. So maybe this is more common than we think. And maybe there's a similar grave up at Queen's.
Owen - August '04 I remember I heard a story like this about Saint Francis Xavier. After he was beatified they exhumed his remains, maybe so they could display them or share them amongst the churches. When they opened the coffin they found scratch marks on the inside of the lid. Because of this there was a campaign to remove his sainthood. A man who's scared of death surely can't have a close relationship with God. I don't know if this story is true. Maybe someone else has heard the same thing, or knows more about it?
Erina McAdam - August '04 This is an original and entertaining article! Quite historically informative as well which is nice. Good stuff!

Found February 03, 2013 on
The Other Paper:
Allen Iverson
If Allen Iverson wasn't the poster boy for everything an NBA player could do wrong off the court — he is now.
Arguably once considered the best pound-for-pound player in the league, A.I. has seen his share of financial, personal and marital troubles over the years but now a judge is calling the former NBA star a terrible father.
Iverson just officially became a single man — after the ATL judge signed off on his divorce from Tawanna Iverson ... the mother of his five children, according to TMZ.com.
The magistrate, reports TMZ, then unloaded on Iverson saying:
[Iverson] does not know how to mange the children; has little interest in learning to mange the children and has actually, at times, been a hindrance to their spiritual and emotional growth and development.
For example, he refused to attend an obvious and serious alcohol problem, which has caused him to do inappropriate things in the presence of the children while impaired.
He has left the children alone without supervision. He has left his young daughters in a hotel room with men who are unknown to the mother.
Kind of sounds like how A.I. handled his teams during his 14 years in the NBA.
Tawanna has been awarded legal and physical custody of the kids. Iverson, the father, has some visitation rights but with strict conditions. Among them:
Iverson must not drink a drop of alcohol for the next 18 months. And — until all of his children reach the age of 18 — he can't consume alcohol within 24 hours of visiting with the kids.
The 37-year-old Iverson — who recently declined an invite with a Mavericks' D-League affiliate — has been ordered to seek professional help and attend AA meeting.
According to sources, the $200 million he earned over the course of his NBA career is gone too.
Such a sad, sad story.

Sean Payton has done some interesting things while he's been banned from the NFL, but nothing compares to the 48-year-old getting braces. Yes, those are braces on his teeth. The guy is running around New Orleans or wherever looking like Ted Stroehmann.
Our research team seems to believe these braces were installed within the last week or so and debuted over the weekend at a couple of social events.
Here is Sean trying to smile yesterday while watching the Saints with golfer @MarkMurphyGolf.
It seems Payton watched the game from Mannings restaurant in New Orleans.

So I'm pregnant with my first baby, and am planning to UC. I have a couple of maybe silly questions that I was hoping some veteran UC mamas could help me with.
First one has to do with cleaning up baby after she's born. As in washing off any vertex, blood, ect...would you want to do that before cutting the cord? Does it matter? I know that you're supposed to keep the cord stump as dry as possible, and just sponge bath your baby until it falls off, but what about her first bath? Do I not worry about the cord stump? Should I not cut the cord until after she's cleaned off? And how did you clean your baby? I'm thinking of taking a bath together with her, and washing both of us off then.
The other question is for cutting the cord. If the cord is white and limp, do you need to tie it off? Or is that unnecessary at that point?
Cutting the cord will fall to me...DH is squeamish about the idea. He has no problem with catching our baby, but the idea of cutting the cord is scary...funny guy. :)
Thanks for reading, and any advice or recommendations you may have for me!

Facials were meant to be relaxing—something the proprietors of Beau Esthetics try to infuse into every service at their spa. It begins the moment a client walks into the clean, white space and continues through each facial treatment and waxing service. Aestheticians use fine Decléor aromatherapy skincare products to even and tone the skin during each facial, taking care to keep their client in a peaceful state all the while. But skincare is really at the center of each service. Skincare therapies come with their own customizations to suit individual skin types and the unique microneedle therapy system (MTS) offers an intense anti-aging treatment that promotes collagen production.
The aestheticians of Vicky's Skincare aim to prevent beauty from expiring with an extensive selection of anti-aging facials. Using an arsenal of advanced skincare equipment, practitioners target hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and dehydration with active ingredients such as collagen and vitamins. In addition to skincare, the team also performs massages and Indiba treatments, a detoxifying process designed to eliminate excess fluids, spur circulation, and stimulate muscles. The service can be performed on the entire body, or targeted to the belly, back, lower body, or foam finger.
Opulent chandeliers hang from the ceiling, reflecting light off the gilded mirrors that decorate Jolie Toi Salon & Spa. Clients can recline on the leopard-print sofa in the waiting area before having their hair tousled, snipped, and braided into Celtic knots by owner-stylist Charbel Mousallem. With 15 years of styling experience in London, Lebanon, and the United States, Charbel's haircuts, conditioning treatments, and professional styling have enhanced the heads of celebrities such as Elton John as well as contestants on America's Next Top Model. Aesthetician Sylwia Gorzkowska rounds out the spa's beautifying services and brings 10 years of experience to the table, having worked with the renowned Elemis and AmorePacific skincare companies. Her cleansing facials and waxing services have spruced up the faces of celebrities such as Tiki Barber and have found their way onto the printed pages of Vogue and Elle.
Seafoam green styling stations aren't the only bright aspects of Cira Creation Salon. Since 1991, owners and sisters Cira Lo Bue and Connie Fiduccia have delighted visitors with their vibrant personalities, which grabbed the attention of Fort Lee Patch contributor Robyn Nadel in 2011. As positivity permeates throughout the entire salon, the duo spruces up hairdos with precision cuts, keratin treatments, and coloring services. Their team also includes stylist Nina, who specializes in hair extensions, and nail technician Monica, who softens rough hands with paraffin wax treatments and all-night romantic comedy marathons.
Chains of papery, white disks surround ceiling lamps at Element Salon and Spa and scatter golden light over the mod, spacious studio. A black-and-white color scheme permeates the space, which houses a row of stand-alone styling stations that resemble the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey, but with more hairspray. In this space, stylists update hairdos with cuts and coloring treatments, and aestheticians and nail techs tuck into quieter corners for waxes, facials, and mani-pedis. In the waiting area, flat-screen televisions roll footage of fashion shows as iPads entertain patrons who await appointments.
For more than 30 years, the staff at Giambieri Coloring Spa has dedicated their work to improving the hair and skin of their clients with cuts, coloring, and variety of facial treatments. Each specialist harnesses their own individual creativity and combines it with training in the latest spa products and techniques to create looks that are designed to fit your specific personality and favorite houseplant. The studio's elegant space, decked out in polished hardwoods and homey accents, proves to be a suitable setting for Giambieri's equally elegant nail services and facials.

Thread: Plastic radiator tank
Plastic radiator tank
Does anybody know where i can get a replacement radiator tank. Most places want to sell the whole radiator but I only want the tank. It's the driver side tank for a cross-flow radiator for a 2001> C/K 2500/3500 HD with the 8.1L gas or both sizes of Duramax diesel engines and the Allison trans. I have a brand-new radiator but somebody somewhere in a warehouse dropped the carton and it landed on the lower vibration cushion and ruptured the bottom around the mount. We didn't find the defect until coolant was added and began pouring on the floor. I checked with somebody who welds plastic and they wouldn't touch it, said the ABS crumbles and wouldn't hold especially under pressure. The tank must have the large fittings for the oil cooler lines (1/2") to work.
