Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable
This article needs additional citations for verification. (August 2013) |
Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, sometimes referred to simply as Brewer's, is a reference work containing definitions and explanations of many famous phrases, allusions and figures, whether historical or mythical.
The "Revised and Updated Edition" from the 1890s is now in the public domain, and web-based versions are available online.
The most recent version is the 19th edition, published in August 2012 by Chambers Harrap Publishers.
Originally published in 1870 by the Reverend E. Cobham Brewer, it was aimed at the growing number of people who did not have a university education, but wanted to understand the origins of phrases and historical or literary allusions. The 'phrase' part of the title refers mainly to the explanation of various idioms and proverbs, while the 'fable' part might more accurately be labelled 'folklore' and ranges from classical mythology to relatively recent literature. On top of this, Brewer added notes on important historical figures and events, and other things which he thought would be of interest, such as Roman numerals.
Although intended as a comprehensive reference work, early editions of Brewer's are highly idiosyncratic, with certain editorial decisions highly suggestive of the author's personal bias. For instance, a list under the entry for John purported to show the bad luck associated with that name, ending "Certainly a disastrous list of Popes" despite several being described merely as "nonentities". Some entries seem so trivial as to be hardly worth including, and others are almost definitely apocryphal.
Despite this inconsistency, however, the book was a huge success, providing information often not included in more traditional dictionaries and encyclopedias. A revised and updated edition was published in 1896, shortly before Brewer died. Since then, it has been continually revised and reprinted, often In Facsimile, with the 15th edition being the first to make truly wide-scale changes to the content.
Brewer's Dictionary of Modern Phrase and Fable[edit]
Brewer's Dictionary of Modern Phrase and Fable (ISBN 978-0304350964), edited by Adrian Room, was first published in 2000. A second edition (ISBN 978-0550105646), edited by Ian Crofton and John Ayto, was published on 30 November 2010.[1] While this title is based on the structure of Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, it contains entries from 1900 onwards and exists alongside its parent volume as a separate work.[2]
Other special editions[edit]
A variety of spin-off editions has been published in the past, some straying quite far from the theme of 'phrase and fable', such as Brewer's Dictionary of Cinema (1997) and William Donaldson's A-Z of 'roguish Britons', Brewer's Rogues, Villains and Eccentrics (2002). Brewer's Dictionary of London Phrase and Fable was published in 2009 and Brewer's Dictionary of Irish Phrase and Fable was reissued at the same time.

Finding a Donor
Unless you are using your own bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cellsCells that can replicate themselves or evolve into different types of blood cells for your transplant, you will need to find a donor. Finding a suitable bone marrow, peripheral blood stem cell or cord blood donor is an important factor in the success of your transplant.
The donor's stem cells must have similar genetic markers as yours. These markers are called human leukocyteA type of immune cell. Most leukocytes are made in the bone marrow and are found in the blood and lymph tissue. Leukocytes help the body fight infections and other diseases. Granulocytes, monocytes, and lymphocytes are leukocytes. Also called WBC and white blood cell. antigens or your HLAHuman Leukocyte Antigen. type.
Since you inherited your HLA type from your parents, a brother or sister with the same biological parents is the most likely candidate to be your donor. Your doctor may also ask other family members to be tested, although the likelihood that they will be a match is small.
To determine whether a family member is a match, a DNADeoxyribonucleic acid. Acid in the cell nucleus that carries genetic information. test is required. A sample of cells from the inner cheek or a sample of blood is sent to a special DNA testing laboratory. If the person is a match, he or she will undergo a physical examination to determine if he or she is healthy enough to be a donor. See Being a Related Donor for more details.
Finding an Unrelated Donor
If your siblings' HLA type does not match yours, the next step is to search for an unrelated donor. The National Marrow Donor Program® (NMDPNational Marrow Donor Program.) coordinates unrelated donor searches through its Be the Match® registry.
The Be the Match® registry has more than 7 million volunteer marrow or peripheral blood stem cell donors and nearly 90,000 cord blood units. A search of the Be the Match® registry will also include a search other registries worldwide, giving you access to more than 12 million donors and 300,000 umbilical cord blood units.
Your doctor or transplant center will initiate the search for an unrelated donor for you. Depending on your HLA type, the preliminary search may identify just a few or many potential matches. Your transplant doctor will select the most likely candidates and request that further testing be done.
If a perfect match cannot be found, your doctor may select a mismatched donor or, if time permits, wait until a donor who is a closer match joins the registry. Mismatched donor transplants are very common, particularly for people with rare HLA types, and often lead to long-term success.
Cord Blood Transplants
A translant using blood stem cells from an umbilical cord is also an option for many patients and is sometimes the preferred option, particularly for children. Cord blood units do not need to match the patient's HLA type as closely as bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells from an adult donor. They can also be made available more quickly for transplant, since they have already been collected and stored for later use.
HaploidenticalExactly matching half of another person's Human Leukocyte Antigens. Transplants
If you are having difficulty finding a matched related or unrelated donor and must proceed to transplant quickly, your doctor may suggest a haploidentical transplant. This is a transplant from a related donor, such as one of your parents or your child, who only half matches your HLA type. The risk of complications is greater with a haploidentical transplant than with a transplant using blood stem cells from a well-matched donor, but is sometimes the patient's only viable option.
Donor Search Costs
Depending on your insurance plan, the donor search and testing may or may not be a covered expense. If it is not covered, the transplant center may ask you to pay for these services prior to proceeding to transplant.
The National Marrow Donor Program has a Search Assistance Fund to help patients with search costs if their insurance plan does not adequately cover this expense. Patients must be planning a transplant at an NMDP affiliated transplant center. The transplant center search coordinator or financial representative will initate the request for these funds. Patients can get more information about this program by contacting an NMDP patient services coordinator at 888-999-6743.
Other Considerations
Although HLA type is the most important consideration when choosing a suitable donor, your doctor will also take other factors into consideration such as the donor's age, gender, and prior exposure to the cytomegalovirusA type of virus. Also called CMV. virus
You can find additional information about finding the best unrelated donor on the National Marrow Donor Program's Be the Match® web site.

Located in Florida, just to the south of Miami, the Keys are a 106-mile chain of islands that start at Key Largo and end at the southernmost point in the Continental United States in Key West. It's about 113 miles of roads and bridges and can take more than four hours if you drive from one end to the other! There are more than 40 bridges throughout the Keys, with the longest one being the 7-Mile Bridge in Marathon.
The Keys are actually an archipelago made up of exposed coral reefs and limestone formations that were once under water. Fluctuations in the water levels caused the reefs to become uncovered and covered by water during the span of thousands of years. Today the Keys consist of more than 800 islands, most uninhabited, with only a few being inhabited year-round.

Pyramid Lake
Add to my Trip PlannerTypes:
One of the most fascinating lakes in Nevada shimmers like a mirage out of the stark surrounding desert landscape, with its defining pyramid-shaped island rising dramatically out of the water. The unusual saltwater lake known as Pyramid Lake is named for its notable rock formation, which sits just off the eastern shore.
Pyramid Lake is a remnant of the ancient Lake Lahontan and is entirely enclosed today on the Paiute Indian Reservation. A geographical coincidence preserved this segment of Lake Lahontan, which today measures roughly 15 miles by 11 miles with a depth of 350 feet. Pyramid Lake is known for its Lahontan cuttroat trout, a species native to the ancient historic Lake Lahontan, which can grow to trophy sizes, and its incredible landscape. The lake is surrounded by enormous white tufa formations, natural wonders made all the more surreal by the low-lying, muted desert vegetation. Fishermen cast from boats and the shore, but water sport enthusiasts are drawn to Pyramid Lake as well.
Fishing and recreational activities play a large role in the economy on the Pyramid Lake Reservation. Guided lake excursions are available from tribal members only, while permits are required for fishing, day use and overnight camping at the lake, which is considered one of the tribe's most valuable assets. Visitors to the lake will also find the Pyramid Lake Visitor Center, which houses a museum depicting the region's natural history and sharing tribal culture.
Fishing on this high-desert lake can be surreal. The dark blue waters of the 27-mile-long lake located on the Pyramid Lake Paiute Indian Reservation are surrounded by giant, white tufa formations and low-lying desert vegetation. Anglers here are drawn to the Lahontan cutthroat trout. Anglers fish from boats and from shore. Fishing from aluminum ladders is a popular technique. Only tribal members are allowed to offer guided excursions on the lake.
Getting There: From Reno and Sparks, take State Route 445 north (Pyramid Hwy.) 31 miles to Sutcliffe on the lake or take I-80 east 30 miles to the Wadsworth exit and follow State Route 447 for 16 miles to the southern tip of Pyramid Lake.

Once the lights dim in the main auditorium at Camelot Cinemas, eyes can't help but fixate on the glimmering digital images that flicker across the towering 60-foot screen. Nestled comfortably in reclining chairs, audience members dig into buckets of popcorn and gape at the latest blockbuster films while a THX-certified sound system croons a crystal-clear soundtrack. Theatergoers enjoy a similar experience in Camelot Cinemas' other auditoriums, where they can laugh through cheerful romantic comedies, find the courage to watch petrifying horror flicks, and fight back sobs during the heartwarming premovie message about turning off your cell phone.
At its two Columbia locations, Plex Indoor Sports aims to provide complete indoor recreation with artificial-turf fields, ice arenas, inflatables, basketball courts, family entertainment center, and full-service cafe. Both facilities offer after-school programs providing access to soccer, football, and lacrosse programs, ensuring that children learn the proper techniques required to work toward goals and play safely. Total-fitness classes are also available throughout the week, highlighting invigorating methods such as yoga, Zumba, and hip-hop aerobics. The Sandhills location hosts a roller-skating rink, and the Irmo location houses an NHL regulation-sized ice rink with public skate times in between hockey games and practice sessions of the local ice-fishing team.
A 30-foot rock-climbing wall towers over the Family Entertainment Center, granting visitors an elevated view of a facility packed with wall-to-wall inflatables and family activities. Visitors can roller skate, set new high scores at the arcade, or attempt to stay atop a mechanical bull. Other attractions include bungee jumping, a rock-n-roll ride, and more.
Founded in 2010, the EHCL's Greenville Road Warriors don't have the rich legacy of their parent squad, the NHL's legendary New York Rangers. But judging from their first two seasons, the team is eager to make up for lost time. The Road Warriors took the league by storm in their debut season, earning the top playoff seed in the Eastern Conference before losing in overtime of Game 7 in the second round of the playoffs. Their quest for Kelly Cup glory continued in the 2011–2012 season, when they yet again made it to the playoffs and fell in the conference quarterfinals. Although championship hardware may have eluded the Road Warriors in their short history, the squad has produced enough top-notch regular-season performances to keep NHL scouts, fans, and trophy-case carpenters on their toes.
The Pavilion cultivates every species of physical activity within its 66,000-square-foot indoor complex and adjacent outdoor fields. The eclectic indoor space hosts soccer, volleyball, and curling face-offs, as well as a year-round ice-skating facility, bounce house, and inline-skating space. Fledgling ice skaters slip and slide during public skating sessions or take part in the U.S. Figure Skating Association's basic skills program to grease their triple axels. As the temperature rises, members make a mad dash outdoors to one of six tennis courts and three soccer fields, or hail a ride on George, The Pavilion's historic miniature passenger train. The complex's Boundless Playground offers a space where children with disabilities can be included in play thanks to accessible slides, swings, and climbing structures.
Designed by 1997 PGA Championship—winner Davis Love III, The Patriot Golf Course spans 7,045 yards of lush, rolling terrain flanked by the docile waters of Lake Greenwood. Rounds begin and end at the faux–brick ruins that surround the first tee and 18th green, which replicate a Revolutionary War fort—a tribute to the fact that the war's first land battle was waged nearby and a solemn reminder to modern golfers never to submit to the tyranny of chronic slices and snap-hooks.

Frederick deputy suspended after assault charge
Wednesday - 12/18/2013, 2:10pm  ET
FREDERICK, Md. (AP) -- The Frederick County Sheriff's Office says a deputy has been suspended following allegations he punched a man in the face in what he says was self-defense.
The agency announced the suspension Wednesday of 44-year-old Deputy First Class Kevin White. He is charged with second-degree assault in an incident early Sunday in downtown Hagerstown.
White is a 13-year-veteran of the Frederick County Sheriff's Office. He lives in Hagerstown.
Twenty-four-year-old Travis Grant told police that White punched him in an alley outside a nightclub where they had been arguing.
White told police that he approached Grant in the alley because Grant was taunting him. He says Grant pushed him, so he "did what he had to do for self-defense."

The Vater Splashtick consists of 19 hand-selected birch dowels that provide warm acoustic tonality while producing a solid crack. The extended rubber grip leaves 4" of the dowels exposed, offering stick-like feel with excellent durability in the rimshot area.

Comments about Vater Splashstick:
I've tried so many versions of sticks like these because I've been told my drums are too loud. While these work to reduce some of the volume of the drums the dowels tend to chip, flake, crack, and break quite easily especially when hitting cymbals. I've been using my pair for several months now and on top of the degradation of the dowels the white coating has begun to slip and wrinkle up a bit and a few times the black caps on the ends have come off. I've tried using wood glue to fix them but in the end they're just getting worn out. I'm looking to buy the heavier version of these to see if they last any better but I'm considering wrapping tape around the whole thing to hopefully increase the longevity a bit more.
Another con with these is you do not get as much bounce / feedback off of the heads which makes fills a bit harder and drum rolls less crisp.
They do help tone down the loudness of drums
They degrade really quickly, especially the dowel parts. I have splintered pieces of these all over the carpet around my drumset.
Could be a little cheaper in price... unless they want to improve the quality, then the current price would be fitting.
Comments about Vater Splashstick:
These sticks are better than hot rods. They are more durable and have a better grip. If you want sticks for quiet play or lower volume music buy these instead of hot rods.
Comments about Vater Splashstick:
These sticks feel sooooooo good. Even though you don't get as much cymbal definition, you get a really warm and acoustic feel. I really like the beefy feel grip as compared to the Pro-Mark Lightning Rods. Sweet playin.... enjoy!
Comments about Vater Splashstick:
These sticks are really nice. They are fun to play with when you are going acoustic or you can use them if you need to be a little quieter (because they are softer). Overall, they are really nice.

Pros – ABC plays a critical role in maintaining the lowest possible healthcare costs by distributing pharmaceuticals and related products in the most efficient manner possible. The people are incredibly dedicated to this mission.
Cons – A new CEO is bringing in the same team that resulted in Bergen being sold to Amerisource back in 2001 at a time when Bergen was much larger. An aggressive international expansion plan will put the core distribution businesses at risk, resulting in lower than anticipated revenues.
Advice to Senior Management – Stick to your knitting.

United States Senator
June 20, 2007
Testimony of Senator Mary L. Landrieu
Before the Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing
On Rising Violent Crime in the Aftermath of Hurricane Katrina
June 20, 2007
Mr. Chairman and members of the Committee, thank you for inviting Senator Vitter and me to testify about the disturbing increase in criminal activity that has overwhelmed the city of New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina. I would also like to welcome and thank our constituents, U.S. Attorney Jim Letten, Judge David Bell, Deputy Police Commissioner Anthony Cannatella, and Bob Stellingworth for coming here today. Each of them works on the front lines of this crisis and I anticipate that their insights into the problem will be invaluable to this Committee's efforts to assist New Orleans on the federal level.
This past January, the violent crime situation in New Orleans seemed to transform itself from being a daily news story typical of a large city to a crisis that shook the very foundation of our community. On the morning of January 4th, a home intruder shot and killed Helen Hill, a local filmmaker, and severely wounded her husband, Paul Gailiunas, a physician who had established a medical clinic to treat the city's poor and uninsured. When the police arrived at their home at about 5:30 AM, they found Paul Gailiunas kneeling by the front door, bleeding profusely from his three gunshot wounds, and clutching his two-year old son in his arms. Helen Hill's body lay nearby, having been brutally shot in the neck. Her death was the sixth murder that occurred within a span of twenty-four hours. The next day, our local newspaper ran with the headline "Killings Bring the City to its Bloodied Knees." It was at this point, that the entire city of New Orleans knew that the level of violence had spun completely out of control.
In 2006, over 160 murders occurred across the City of New Orleans, giving it the ominous distinction of being the city with the most murders per capita in the United States. Depending upon the particular population estimate you read, this homicide rate totals between 63 and 73 murders per 100,000 people. In fact, the 2006 homicide rate in New Orleans is 31 percent higher than the city with the next highest murder rate--Gary, Indiana. Tragically, one-third of the murder victims have been teenagers. The surge in murders has occurred across the City and the neighborhoods hit the hardest have been Mid-City and downtown. Many of these murders have gone unsolved and as of a couple of weeks ago, only one has resulted in a successful prosecution.
This year, the number of murders only seems to be increasing. As of June 18th, 91 murders have occurred across the city and the number could likely increase as more people return home to New Orleans.
Over the past several months, in response to the crime, the Congress appropriated $50 million in the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations bill aimed at combating crime on the Gulf Coast. In assisting the Gulf, the Congress created a formula based upon each community's needs. Among other objectives, these dollars will ensure the full implementation of the New Orleans Anti-Crime Plan, which is supported by Common Good, the Metropolitan Crime Commission, Citizens for One Greater New Orleans, the City Council, as well as the local law enforcement community. Most significantly, the Emergency Supplemental waives the Stafford Act's requirement that localities match 10 percent of the cost of disaster recovery projects before the federal government pays the remaining 90 percent. This match has kept law enforcement and other public infrastructure tied in a morass of red tape for nearly two years. Hopefully, we will now be able to begin the long process of rebuilding three of our police stations, several of our jails and other critically important law enforcement infrastructure at a significantly faster pace.
As Chairman Leahy mentioned, earlier this year, in consultation with our local law enforcement officials and community leaders, I offered a ten-point plan on behalf of the community to stem the increase in crime throughout New Orleans. I wanted to take some time to review some portions of this plan and to offer some suggestions for our work going forward.
First, it is critically important that we provide the necessary infrastructure for law enforcement to do its job. The headquarters of the New Orleans Police Department currently operates out of a group of double-wide trailers. The police also lack a permanent central evidence and property storage facility, a special operations division/traffic division complex; and a juvenile division holding facility. In addition, seven of out eleven jails have not yet been repaired including the Old Parish Prison, the Community Correctional Center, the Templeman Phase I & II Jail, and the Templeman Phase III & IV Jail. Together, these four prisons held over 4,000 inmates. If we expect the police to restore order to the city, we need to ensure that they have the basic infrastructure so that they can perform their jobs properly.
Second, as Chairman Leahy mentioned, we asked the Department of Justice to increase the number of DEA and FBI agents in New Orleans. In response, Attorney General Gonzalez dispatched six additional assistant U.S. Attorneys, nine additional FBI agents, and several additional agents from the Drug Enforcement Agency and the United States Marshals Service. We are grateful for the Department of Justice's response to our request and we look forward to working with DOJ in the future to implement other portions of our plan.
Third, we requested that an emergency COPS grant be issued to parishes that Hurricanes Rita and Katrina impacted. The NOPD has lost over 500 police officers since Hurricane Katrina, which constitutes over 30% of the entire force. In order to combat the surge in murders, we simply need more boots on the ground who understand the city and who appreciate the challenges that each of the city's neighborhoods face. I know that this Congress, and in particular, this Committee, have moved aggressively in re-authorizing the COPS program. In particular, the legislation authorizes significant resources for local agencies to hire officers in general community policing efforts. As the Senate moves forward in the re-authorization process, I would like to work closely with this Committee to ensure that significant COPS funding can be allocated to New Orleans, Jefferson parish, and other parishes that have faced significant law enforcement challenges related to the flooding.
In concert with the COPS grant, we have requested that the federal government help construct a new police academy and provide additional funding for the already established Gulf Coast Regional Policing Institute. This will assist the city of New Orleans and the entire region in creating and training a new generation of law enforcement officials who are rooted in their communities and have a vested interested in making them a safer place to live.
As part of our ten-point plan, we also proposed the creation of a state-of-the art crime surveillance system for the City of New Orleans. By creating a more up-to-date surveillance system, New Orleans's law enforcement community will have greater opportunities to identify, arrest and successfully prosecute violent criminals. The COPS bill authorizes funding for law enforcement technology grants. It is my hope to work with this Committee to ensure that the COPS bill accounts for cities, like New Orleans, that have undergone a natural disaster and that have lost significant amounts of technological resources necessary to fight crime.
We have also asked that the federal government release $13 million in Social Services Block Grant funds to assist the city in its drug rehabilitation efforts. Approximately 70% of the murders in New Orleans are drug related. Similarly, the majority of the crimes involving juvenile offenders are drug-related. Judge Bell will no doubt mention that the City lacks adequate resources to treat juvenile offenders who have committed a non-violent drug-related crime. By investing in drug rehabilitation early on, we can literally save the lives of these young people and prevent them from becoming repeat offenders in our criminal justice system.
We have also called for greater FEMA coordination with local law enforcement agencies, the reactivation of the Gulf State Initiative, which is a drug trafficking intelligence sharing program between the Department of Defense, the Louisiana National Guard and State Police, and have requested a study of the post-hurricane criminal justice system in Louisiana. Any help that this Committee can provide in implementing these critical programs will be invaluable in our recovery efforts.
Finally, it is important to underscore that additional funding is only part of the solution. We need to demand accountability and coordination on all levels of government--from our local police, from our prosecutors, and from the City's Court system as a whole. With accountability, coordination, and additional funding, we can fight the surge of murders on all fronts.
Mr. Chairman, thank you again for holding this important hearing. I realize this hearing today is only a step, but it is an important one. And while New Orleans's challenges are large, the people fighting to save our city--some of whom you'll hear from momentarily--have exactly what it takes to turn our community around. I look forward to working with this Committee, Senator Vitter, our local law enforcement leaders and community activists in helping stem the flow of violence that has spread across New Orleans.

Girandoni Air Rifle as used by Lewis and Clark
This firearm is on exhibit at the NRA National Sporting Arms Museum in Springfield, MO.
This 22-shot repeating air rifle is an original Girardoni military pattern rifle of the type used on the Lewis & Clark Expedition. It is a butt reservoir piece with a bore size of .462 caliber. Similar pieces were supplied by Bartolomeo Girardoni to the Austrian army circa 1780. As originally issued, each Girardoni air rifle had three detachable air reservoirs, each requiring about 1,500 strokes of a pump to completely pressurize the reservoir. Once filled to operating pressure (about 800 psi) the air rifle could fire up to 70 shots before the reservoir required replacing. A metal tube on the side of the barrel held up to 22 lead balls that could be fed one at a time to the firing chamber by a simple sideways push of a plunger. At a distance of 50 feet, this rifle is capable of placing ten shots into a group the size of a quarter.

Simply Circuits
How does a flashlight work?
By using a battery hooked up to an electrical circuit system.
How does an electrical circuit system work?
A battery has negative electric charges and positive electric charges. If you look at a battery, you will see that there is a + sign at one end and a - sign at the other. The opposite charges are drawn to each other, but without an easy path, they will remain separated. That's where a circuit comes in handy.
A Power-full Bridge
A circuit is a bridge for electrical energy. Putting a battery on a circuit--such as the one built into a flashlight--allows electrons to move across the bridge and back to the negatively charged part of the battery. Along the way, the energy moving through the circuit can be used to power the flashlight. The energy is called the electric current.
If there is too much electric current for the circuit to handle, the circuit might catch fire or it might just stop working. You might have heard someone say that a fuse is blown in your family's house or car. The fuse is there to protect the circuit from catching on fire. When the fuse is blown, the current needs to be shut off so the circuit can cool down. Another fuse should be put in its place.
Circuit breakers act the same way. When there's too much power and the system is running too hot, the circuit breaker will automatically stop the power from going through and causing more damage. Circuit breakers are easier because they don't need to be replaced. Their levers flip off by themselves to stop the circuit. When the circuit's wiring has had time to cool down (and you've unplugged a few things), you can flip the circuit breaker back on again.
"Dead" Batteries
If there is not enough electric current, then the circuit won't be able to power whatever it is that's running. When a flashlight battery goes "dead," there may be some power, but not enough to turn on the flashlight. Sometimes this is because of a problem with the circuit itself--the parts of the system might not be tight or there might be build up around the contact points at each end of the battery.
You can make your own simple circuit, with or without store-bought batteries. When life gives you lemons, you can make lemonade or electricity: www.energyquest.ca.gov/projects/lemon.html
Or, you can go the traditional route with D cell batteries: www.energizer.com/learning-center/science-center/Pages/make-flashlight.aspx
Energizer's Science Center has other experiments to try. Make a quiz game, a steady hand game, a compass, a telegraph set and more. Please read their warnings: never experiment with household current from the wall (too high voltage can really hurt you) and always have an adult check on what you are doing.

Daytona Beach International Airport (IATA: DAB, ICAO: KDAB, FAA LID: DAB) is a county-owned airport three miles (5 km) southwest of Daytona Beach,[1] next to the Daytona International Speedway, in Volusia County, Florida. The airport has 3 runways, a six-gate domestic terminal, and an international terminal. Daytona Beach is the headquarters of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.
The Beach[edit]
Before airplanes landed on the beach, automobiles raced. The beach had a smooth, hard, and relatively clean surface for anything with wheels and speed. Pilots soon caught on and used the beach as a runway. Hangars were built later and aircraft service was provided on beach. This former airport is one of only two beach airports that were successful. The other, Old Orchard Beach in Maine, was the starting point for at least five transatlantic flights during the 1920s and 1930s.[2]
The first flight on the beach was in 1906 by Charles K. Hamilton, using Israel Ludlow's glider. The glider was pulled by an automobile and actually took place in Ormond. He went as high as 150 feet (46 m) on his first try, and 250 feet (76 m) on the second, before crashing into a flagpole and surviving with a bruised knee.[2]
Numerous flights followed, including John A. D. McCurdy, the United States's 5th licensed pilot, in 1911, Phillips Page in 1912, and Ruth Law in 1913. Phillips Page has been credited for taking the first aerial photographs in Florida, while flying around the Hotel Clarendon in Daytona Beach. Many other pilots took to the skies above Daytona Beach before it was closed during the winter of 1929–30.[2]
Bethune Point[edit]
All flights were moved to the new location at Bethune Point, right on the Halifax River. Eastern Air Transport was the first commercial service out of Daytona Beach. The airline was certified to fly mail to Tampa and Orlando. However, the first flight crashed just after takeoff, due to a mechanical failure. The pilot was uninjured, and the mail was collected and sent out on a different flight.[2]
Florida State Airways, Inc was an airline that formed in early 1930 in Daytona Beach. The airline provided service for passengers to other Florida cities and to the Bahamas, using Ryan aircraft. In January 1930, Vice President of Operations, Bill Lindley, piloted a flight to Palm Beach. While on the descent, he never pulled out of the dive and went into Lake Worth at full throttle. The combination of Lindley's death and the depression soon caused most aviation activity in Daytona Beach to stop.[2]
Municipal Airport[edit]
In late 1930 a 740-acre (299 ha) piece of land turned into the current airport, a few hundred feet from the main drag of International Speedway Blvd. The first name it was given was Sholtz Field, after the then Governor of Florida, who was from Daytona Beach. The airport began with two gravel runways, one 1,800 feet (550 m) long and one 2,100 feet (640 m). Before long the name became Daytona Beach Municipal Airport.[2]
Eastern Air Lines began passenger service, flying Kingbirds and Condors. After a few years Eastern did not re-bid, after the airmail changes of 1934. In 1935 National Airlines won a bid on the cross-state route from Daytona Beach to St. Petersburg. In 1933, the airport was closed for repairs. National rerouted its flights to Jacksonville but Eastern became upset and called it an act of "buccaneers". National Airlines called itself the "Buccaneer Route".[2]
Pre-War Expansion[edit]
In the late 1930s four 4000 by 150 feet (46 m) runways were built, all paved, allowing DC-2s and DC-3s. The terminal was on the south side of the airport.[2] For a short while in 1940 a zoo-keeper was hired to maintain the airport.
When World War II broke out the US Navy took over and used the airport for training, calling it Naval Air Station Daytona Beach. New buildings were later used by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University after their move from Miami in 1965.,[2][3] while others were used by the aviation department that later became the current aviation authority. Naval outlying fields were built at Spruce Creek, Ormond Beach and Bunnell that were shared with NAS Jacksonville and NAS DeLand.
NAS Daytona Beach conducted advanced training for Naval Aviators and enlisted Naval Aircrewmen of the US Navy and US Marine Corps in aircraft ranging from single seat F6F Hellcat and F4U Corsair fighters to the multi-seat SB2C Helldiver dive bomber. At the end of the war NAS Daytona Beach was decommissioned and it and the auxiliary airfields were returned to local governments for civil use.
Post-War Expansion[edit]
Ownership reverted to the city of Daytona Beach in 1946. The November 1950 chart shows Runways 6, 10, 16 and 21, all 3990 to 4140 feet long, forming an asymmetric asterisk.
The April 1957 OAG shows eight departures a day on Eastern and four on National. A passenger terminal was completed in 1958, along with a control tower. Jet flights began in December 1967: Eastern 727s MIA-MLB-DAB-BAL-JFK and back. (The 1968 AOPA Directory shows DAB's longest runway as 5700 ft, but maybe it wasn't up to date—the 1969 Directory shows 7500 ft.) Runways 6 and 16 were 150' wide, the two diagonal runways were closed, and a 3100' x 75' training runway was built parallel to the main runway, on the south side of the field.
In 1969 Volusia County took over management of the airport from the City of Daytona Beach and renamed it Daytona Beach Regional Airport. In the following decades Embry-Riddle expanded its campus on the northeast side of the field. By the mid-1980s a midfield control tower had been completed and the airport was served by Eastern, Delta and Continental.
During the few years in the 1980s and 1990s that American Airlines had a hub in Raleigh/Durham, American Airlines had 2–3 daily flights to Raleigh Durham International Airport. American ended service to Daytona Beach in 1994 as the Raleigh/Durham hub was dismantled.
In 1992 a larger two-level terminal opened and the previous terminal was converted to an international arrivals facility. These new buildings, along with extension of two runways to 10,500' and 6001', justified a name change to Daytona Beach International Airport. The only scheduled direct flights out of the country from the airport were provided by Vintage Props and Jets using small turbo-props.[2][3] On July 18, 2008 Vintage Props and Jets temporarily ceased operations and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. International charters on wide-bodied jets of numerous airlines appear now and then.
In the past Daytona Beach has seen Delta Air Lines from Cincinnati and New York, American Airlines from Raleigh-Durham, LTU International from Düsseldorf, Continental Airlines from Newark, United Airlines from Chicago and Washington DC, and AirTran Airways from Atlanta, Baltimore, and New York City. These airlines all left.
According to an article in the Daytona Beach News Journal released on September 28, 2010, Stephen J. Cooke, the director of the airport, is in talks with the recently merged Southwest/Airtran to begin service to Daytona. Airtran has served Daytona in the past competing with Delta on the Atlanta route and having routes to Baltimore and LaGuardia as well. Southwest has never served Daytona. A Southwest spokesman has said it is too soon to discuss it but talks are continuing. If Southwest were to serve Daytona it would likely be from numerous cities. This would increase competition and lower prices for an airport that has been a duopoly by Delta and US Airways for years.[4]
Current service[edit]
Daytona Beach has two carriers, Delta Air Lines to Atlanta and New York(LGA) and US Airways to Charlotte. Delta has mainline MD-88s and MD-90s year round and 757s for the Spring Break season. US Airways uses regional jets, CRJ-200s to CRJ-900s depending on season. Both airlines upgrade for the Daytona 500 weekend with Delta bringing in B757s and US Airways bringing B737s and A319s.
Facilities and aircraft[edit]
Daytona Beach International Airport covers 1,800 acres (730 ha) and has three asphalt runways: 7L/25R, 10,500 x 150 ft. (3,200 x 46 m), 7R/25L at 3,195 x 100 ft. (974 x 30 m) and 16/34, 6,001 x 150 ft. (1,829 x 46 m).[1]
In the year ending April 30, 2010 the airport had 290,455 aircraft operations, an average of 796 per day: 97% general aviation, 1% scheduled commercial, 2% air taxi and <1% military. 231 aircraft are based at this airport: 72% single engine, 16% multi-engine, 11% jet aircraft and 1% helicopters.[1]

On July 1, John Bardo became the 13th president of Wichita State University.
He previously served as the chancellor of West Carolina University for 16 years.
KMUW's Carla Eckels talks with President Bardo about his ties to WSU and formulating a strategic plan for the future.
A exhibit that highlights Wichita's ties to the 1936 Olympics opens Monday.
A farewell reception for Wichita State University President and First Lady, Don and Shirley Beggs was held Thursday on campus.
A room in Koch Arena was filled with well-wishers, faculty and staff wearing black and gold, the Wu Shock, cheerleaders, all wanting to express their appreciation for the Beggs.
For 13 and a half years, the couple tirelessly supported WSU.
Bobby Gandu was a student during their tenure and is now WSU's Director of Admissions. He says the Beggs are going out with style, grace and a lot of respect and pride for the institution.
American architect Frank Lloyd Wright designed more than 1,000 structures during his lifetime. Among them is the Corbin Education Center on the Wichita State Campus.
Walking tours of the building will be offered Friday in honor of Wright's birthday.
Alan Aagaard is a WSU professor and will lead the tours. He'll talk about the architect's career and other familiar buildings in Wichita designed by Wright's students.
The 42nd annual Special Olympics Kansas Summer Games will take place this weekend at Wichita State University's Cessna Stadium.
The opening ceremonies will begin Friday evening with the Parade of Athletes followed by the lighting of the cauldron by the 2011 Most Inspirational Athlete, Chevi Peters of the Pittsburg New Hope Bulldogs.
A Law Enforcement Torch Run includes 900 officers from more than 85 agencies carrying the "Flame of Hope" throughout 28 counties in Kansas as they travel to the annual games held in Wichita.
A Wichita State University professor of organ has been awarded one of France's most distinguished titles by the country's Minister of Culture and Communications.
The title, Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters, or Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, was given to WSU's Lynne Davis and recognizes influential artists and writers who have contributed to and encouraged French art and literature around the world.
This Final Friday, the Wichita State University Sculpture Guild will be hosting their annual art exhibition at the Diver's Studio on South Commerce. Playfully titled "Fondle, Please," this show encourages visitors to not only touch the art, but it requires people to physically interact with the works in order to fully experience the show. While the show maintains a lighthearted air, the Sculpture Guild's theme is determined to transform passive viewers into active participants.

Hahn, Christopher
Dr. Christopher Hahn has performed as a solo and collaborative artist throughout North America and Europe. As a guest of the American Embassy in Sarajevo, he presented a concert tour of Bosnia-Herzgovenia with performances in Sarajevo, Banja Luka, and at the Luciano Pavarotti Center in Mostar. The recitals were highly anticipated and elicited enthusiastic responses: "a stellar performance...combining technical proficiency with a mature musicality." [Vercernje Novosti, Sarajevo].
Christopher has been featured in recital at Carnegie Hall—Weill Recital Hall, The Music Gallery in Toronto, the Methow Valley Chamber Music Festival, the National Saxophone Conference at Northwestern University, the International Horn Competition of America, and the Society of Composers, Inc. National and Regional Conferences. He has been invited to present recitals and master classes at Interlochen Arts Academy, Stanford University, Ithaca College, North Carolina School of the Arts, Wilfrid Laurier University, the University of Idaho, Idaho State University, and the University of Wisconsin—Eau Claire. He has performed with the Oklahoma City Philharmonic Orchestra, the Greater Lansing Symphony Orchestra, and the Missoula Symphony Orchestra, and has worked with conductors Gustav Meier, Joel Levine and Noel Edison.
As a collaborative artist, he won the silver medal at the 2008 International Chamber Music Ensemble Competition in Boston, and was a winner of Canada's NUMUS Chamber Music Competition for New Music. He has had the honor of performing for the Archbishop Desmond Tutu with the Metropolitan Opera's Leona Mitchell, and has also performed with such recognized artists as flutist Christina Jennings, trumpet/piano virtuoso Guy Few, pianist Lydia Brown, cellist Amit Peled, and Russian dissident poet, Evgeny Yevtushenko. Recently, he was invited by Grammy-winning composer Libby Larsen to make a commercial recording of her piano duet, Gavel Patter.
Christopher performs frequently with Karen Beres throughout the US and Canada as a member of the award-winning CanAm Piano Duo. Together they perform a varied repertoire of new works and masterpieces of the twentieth century alongside more traditional works for the genre, and are actively involved in promoting and performing contemporary composers. The Duo recently received a grant from the Thomas S. Kenan Institute for the Arts to commission a large-scale work for two pianos and percussion from internationally renowned composer David Maslanka, which will be premiered in the 2009-10 concert season.
A native of Canada, Christopher pursued his early training through the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto, Ontario and received the Associate Diploma in performance with first-class honors, and has since furthered his study of performing and teaching in Canada, the United States, and Europe. Christopher has earned the highest honor given by Trinity College of Music in London, England by obtaining both the Licentiate and Fellowship Diplomas in performance. His mentors include Ralph Votapek, Edward Gates, Sonja Behrens, Jamie Parker, Lucien Hut and Virginia Blaha. Additional performance studies include sessions at the Orford Center for Advanced Musical Studies in Québec (Anton Kuerti), the Adamant Music School (Menahem Pressler), the University of Michigan (Louis Nagel), the Royal Conservatory of Music (Andrew Markow), and private study in Verneuil-sur-Avre, France (Jean-Paul Sevilla). He has coached with Yefim Bronfman, Constance Keene, Angela Cheng, Yong Hi Moon, and Marilyn Horne, and has received extensive chamber music coaching from members of the Penderecki String Quartet and the Gryphon Trio.
An active teacher, adjudicator and clinician, Christopher is a member of the College of Examiners for the Royal Conservatory of Music. He is a nationally certified teacher of music (NCTM) and is President of the Montana State Music Teachers Association. Christopher is frequently engaged at regional, national, and international conferences and has been a featured presenter at the Glenn Gould Professional School, the Royal Conservatory of Music Art of Teaching Conference in Toronto, the University of Oklahoma Seminar for Piano Teachers, the Summer Music Institute in St. Paul, MN, the Oklahoma and Montana Music Teachers Association state conventions, Louisiana State University, and the MTNA National Convention in 2004 (Kansas City) and 2008 (Denver). His students have been featured on the NPR program, From the Top, and as finalists in the 2007 MTNA Chamber Music Competition in Toronto, Canada. He has been published in Piano Pedagogy Forum and American Music Teacher, and is listed in Who's Who Among America's Educators. He recently received an award for Meritorious Teaching & Creative Activity from the University of Montana.

The Timken Co. simplified interchanges to Timken driveline center support truck bearings by converting its parts nomenclature to align with familiar industry part numbers.
This change makes it faster and easier for customers to find the right Timken driveline center support bearings, also called hanger bearings, for major truck applications.
For customer convenience during this transition, the systems and packaging feature both the original and updated part numbers.
Timken driveline center support bearings have robust brackets made of reinforced heavy-gauge cold-rolled steel for strength and durability. A rubber cushion inside each bracket provides support to absorb and isolate vibrations, extending service life in rough environments.
Timken bearing inserts are pre-greased and pre-sealed with an additional grease barrier between the bearing retainer caps and sealed bearing to extend bearing life.

Chalupny Day-to-Day after Collision with Solo in USA vs. Norway
U.S. defender Lori Chalupny is day-to-day after coming out of the USA vs. Norway game in the 15th minute.
Aug. 7, 2008
Chalupny said that she is feeling much better today. She has been resting and watching TV shows on her lap top. She is listed as day-to-day and the decision on whether she will play against Japan on Aug. 9 will likely be made on Saturday.
"I'm feeling good," said Chalupny. "My head was hurting after the game, but no headaches today and I'm just taking it easy. Tomorrow, I'll do some time on the bike and see how I feel, but I'm confident about my chances to play against Japan."
The U.S. defender admits she was blindsided by the hit, but had no loss of memory and watched the rest of the match from the bench.
"I remember going up for the ball and getting punched in the head and landing on my face," said Chalupny. "I would not recommend that to any of the young players out there. I don't blame Hope at all. Things like this happen in soccer games. If she's going to come, she's got to come hard and try to make the play. Unfortunately, the ball just took a good bounce for Norway and a bad one for us. We are really looking forward to the Japan game. I have to believe we will come out with passion and intensity. Our Olympics are on the line."

New York, February 16, 2005—The kidnappers holding Italian journalist Giuliana Sgrena have released a video showing her pleading for her life and calling on U.S. and coalition troops to leave Iraq, The Associated Press (AP) has reported.
On February 4, gunmen seized Sgrena, a reporter for the Rome-based Italian daily Il Manifesto, near Baghdad University, where she had been conducting interviews.
CPJ research indicates that the following journalists have disappeared while doing their work. Although some of them are feared dead, no bodies have been found, and they are therefore not classified as "Killed." If a journalist disappeared after being held in government custody, CPJ classifies him or her as "Imprisoned" as a way to hold the government accountable for the journalist's fate.

Outer Space Crafts, Activities, and More!
Who hasn't gazed up at the stars and wondered about the universe beyond our own planet? Looking at the night sky has the added attraction of staying up late–a sure-fire way to sneak in a little learning with children.
For outer space week of the Smart Summer Challenge*, we saw plenty of out of this world ideas!
Here are some of the outer space crafts and activities my family did:
Outer Space Songs for Preschool
Earth and Moon Orbits Reenactment
Rocket Ship Craft and Books About Astronauts
Some other posts from our participants and hostesses that caught my eye:
Me as a Constellation from Relentlessly Fun, Deceptively Educational
Felt Build a Rocket Game at Pink and Green Mama
Cookies and Phases of the Moon at Teach Mama
Solar System Necklace from Paint Cut Paste
Rocket Shape Collage from Creativity My Passion
Planet Walk to see the relative distance between the planets from Life in the Unknown
Living Montessori Now has a great round-up of Montessori-Inspired Star and Constellation Units. I especially like the constellation pin punching activity from Counting Coconuts.
* Recently I co-hosted the "Smart Summer Challenge" with MaryLea of Pink and Green Mama and Amy of TeachMama.
I'm moving my weekly themed "round-ups" of submissions to new posts to make them easier to find.

One Response to "Outer Space Crafts, Activities, and More!"
Great round-up of outer space activities, Candace! Thanks so much for including my post! I really love that constellation pin punching activity from Counting Coconuts, too. It's always amazing how much kids love to use pin punching for almost anything, but I think constellations are one of the best uses for it!

154 Cub lo-Boy carb leaksMy 154 Cub Lo-Boy carb leaks after rebuilding with an IH kit. I have read Lurker Carl's carb leaking fix. I think the IH gaskets are too hard and won't compress unless I tighten stuff too tight and I don't want to strip the threads. For a sealant for the nozzle and needle cage, I am going to try Permetex 59214, Napa # 765-2648. Does everyone use the Kohler Cage and needle Lurker Carl talks about or just uses the IH one. Any advise? Thanks!!
Use the IH one.
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem. My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that! http://www.cubtug.com

Discussion with Austin Coppock on Defining Traditional Astrology
During this show I interview popular astrology columnist Austin Coppock.
Our primary topic of discussion is the question "what is traditional astrology?"
This involves talking about some areas of continuity and discontinuity in the astrological tradition, in order to try to determine how the subject should properly be defined.
Despite the generic label that is often applied to the pre-20th century traditions of astrology, contemporary practitioners of "traditional astrology" are not just one homogeneous group of people. There was actually quite a bit of diversity in the technical, conceptual and philosophical approaches that astrologers adopted prior to the modern period. In some ways this is reflected in the different types of traditional astrology that are being practiced now.

Some people know how to rock a scarf (you know if you're one of them) and a good scarf is all about the fabric. The organic cotton Puckertwill that makes our Mixologist adds life, dimension and flavor to a very subtle weave. Its inherent puckers aren't extreme but do encourage texture and dimension… just like the bite of lime after a shot of tequila.
