Definitions of modular Construction, mobile homes, trailers, campers, doublewides, panelized construction - what are the differences and how are these structures recognized? This article describes the history and characteristics of these different types of factory-built structures. This set of definitions and identifying characteristics of these homes and construction methods is a supplement to our more detailed paper, Mobile Home Inspections. Readers should also see ARCHITECTURE & BUILDING COMPONENT ID. Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2014 InspectApedia.com, All Rights Reserved. Definitions: What is a Mobile Home, Trailer, Doublewide, Modular Home, Factory-Built Home, Panelized-Construction-Built Home?At ARCHITECTURE & BUILDING COMPONENT ID we included US DOE definitions for the following classes of "manufactured homes": Manufactured homes are those built entirely in a factory. They are then transported to a building site and installed. Manufactured homes include: Modular Homes Panelized Homes Pre-Cut Homes Mobile Homes The following is the opinion of the author and has not had a technical review by other industry experts. Various trailer, mobile home, and modular housing manufacturers may disagree with some of these views. Corrections and content suggestions are welcome. Characteristics of Trailers as Living SpaceTrailer traditionally describes a usually small, wheeled, home with a history and image of flimsy construction such as wooden 1x3 wall framing clad with aluminum siding, virtually no insulation, and low quality leaky windows. "Trailers" up until the 1970's (my estimate) included both campers (photo at left) which really were intended to be towed by a car or truck and moved often from site to site (though some were left parked for decades at campgrounds), and also lightweight factory-made homes which were intended to be towed once to a home site and then kept there. The camper shown in our photo (left) was abandoned but had previously served as a summer camp for many years. The little blue structure used as an addition to the left of the small house in the photo at the top of this page was undoubtedly a small camper. No one building "trailers" calls them that any longer because of the "flimsy" image. The closest thing to a "trailer" in current products on the market are motor homes and campers such as these campers parked along Wappingers Creek in our photo (left). The least-costly campers (such as our pickup truck "slide-on camper") built after 2000 are probably considerably better constructed than the "trailers" of old. In current language (2009), a "trailer" is either a "mobile home" that is more than 20 years old (see below), or it is a camper designed to be moved easily and often from site to site. (Or in different usage, a "utility trailer" is a utility vehicle intended to haul goods or large items and designed to be fastened to the back of a car or truck, and a "tractor trailer" is of course a larger (typically 40 ft long) hauling system for moving goods by highway from city to city.) Trailers may have had their wheels left on, but normally they'd be set on a masonry pier foundation and a skirt installed around to hide the under-trailer area. Characteristics of Mobile Homes as Living SpaceIn the past few decades (to 2006), "trailer" manufacturers have considerably improved the quality of construction of such homes. The national manufacturing and building code standards for these structures have also been improved. Perhaps in part to escape the less than wholesome image of "trailer", manufacturers use the term "mobile home" to describe what is usually larger and better made home than "trailers" of old, though perhaps with similar materials. Mobile homes are built in a factory and are designed to be moved (once and uncommonly, perhaps once again) on its own wheels attached to its own frame to a site where a foundation is prepared and connections to utilities are made. In the U.S., states have regulations about the siting, foundation, steps and entry, wiring, plumbing, tie-downs for wind and storm safety that apply to these homes. Some examples of mobile home regulations for New York State are this website. Individual state regulations will vary - you'll want to see what your state requires. Even within states regulations vary as wind and weather conditions do also. Examples of mobile home improvements include stronger overall wall and roof construction, less leaky roof covering, and windows that are less notoriously leaky. In addition newer mobile homes have, for fire safety, bedroom windows that can be pushed out to a wide opening for emergency exit in case of fire - an important safety improvement. Usually building departments grandfather in older structures, but sometimes they will insist that certain life-safety improvements be made, for example if an older mobile home is being brought to a new site in a new community. If this is the case one or two windows may need to be replaced to provide this important safety improvement. When there is a severe storm or hurricane, mobile home communities are among the worst damaged as a strong wind can completely turn over or demolish mobile homes. For this reason, mobile homes set up in high wind-risk zones have extra requirements for tie-downs to secure the building against upset during a storm. Mobile homes may arrive on wheels but they will be jacked enough to be set on some type of approved building foundation, such as masonry piers or a masonry foundation. In case these terms are not confusing enough, some mobile home makers like to call these "factory built homes". But that use of "factory-built homes" is confusing too since modular homes are also "factory built" but are quite different from trailers or mobile homes. Characteristics of a "Doublewide" Mobile Home or TrailerSome manufacturers provide mobile homes constructed to be joined together, side by side to form a double-width living unit. While a double-wide mobile home is basically constructed by the same materials and methods just described above, the tie-down and connection requirements for these living units may be different in some jurisdictions, since their risk of being blown away in high winds is different. Other installation and support requirements, such as connection of the two units and placement of foundation support will also have to accommodate this variation. Modular home construction and inspection are discussed on a separate series of articles beginning at MODULAR HOME CONSTRUCTION. Characteristics of Panelized ConstructionPanelized construction makes use of wall, floor, ceiling or roof "panels" which have been framed off-site and brought to the site by truck. Panels are lifted into place by crane and fastened together on a foundation, and possibly a framed-in floor which have been prepared before the panels arrive. Some framing panels make use of special materials, such as plywood and foam roof panels for insulated cathedral ceilings

FinlandŌĆÖs Formula for School Success (Transcript)
Pasi: If you look at the 15-year-olds, or 16-year-old Finns who are leaving the basic school, most of them have been in special education throughout their schooling. Which means that special education is actually nothing special. So it's you are a special child or student if you haven't been, if you haven't ever used special services.
Pasi: We are putting a lot of emphasis on the early detection of any difficulties and problems that the students in our schools may have. And this is a very different policy to many other countries where these measures are designed in a way that they are implemented only when the problems have emerged and are too visible. But we donŌĆÖt' think like this in Finland. I think we believe in this early intervention to make sure that those who are likely to be in trouble will be recognized early, and provided help and support as quickly as possible.
Teacher: [speaking Finnish] Two times two times two, how is this value notated?
Student: [speaking Finnish] Two to the power of three.
Olli: We as subject teachers cooperate with the special teacher in cases where we see that an individual student has problems with their studies. It might be problems with concentrating on a theme. It might be reading and listening difficulties, especially in languages and math. What we do is that we contact the special teacher at the very early moment. We call it the first intervention. We talk with the special teacher, and try to arrange a time that she or he could be able to come and join me as a subject teacher to my classroom, and then focus on the problem.
Outi: [speaking Finnish] And now we are going to read through all the words which we know already.
Outi: [speaking Finnish] I have a feeling that the students come here because they want to, they like to come here. They are welcome here, they donŌĆÖt feel that it is a punishment.
Olli: The special teacher is available for a couple of hours. And then she picks the student to a separate classroom and helps him or her there. And we also make an individual learning plan for that individual student. And by taking these measures, we try to guarantee that no one is lagging behind.
Outi: [speaking Finnish] Even in a smaller group she has difficulties concentrating on her work.
Teacher: [speaking Finnish] Has she had these problems before?
Olli: The student welfare team gathers on a weekly basis, and subject teachers inform the group with different cases. They might be bullying, they might be skipping classes, they might be learning difficulties, it might behavioral problems, all kinds of things.
Teacher: [speaking Finnish] No, I donŌĆÖt think so, and thatŌĆÖs why IŌĆÖm very worried, because I can see that she is very talented. For instance, in her English class, sheŌĆÖs working very hard, sheŌĆÖs writing stories.
Olli: And then these individual problems are dealt with case-by-case in this weekly meeting that every school in Finland has.
Teacher: [speaking Finnish] It seems like she has a problem with her looks. She feels that she is too big. I was trying to tell her that she was not too big, I wanted her to understand that.
Merja: Well, a student welfare group deals with any kinds of problems that we see in a school having to do with problems at home or at learning disabilities, multi-cultural problems. The main value of our student welfare group is to interrupt as soon as possible, problems involved.
Pasi: With this policy, we are trying to really make it easy for everybody to say, "Yes, I have some areas where I need help now. Is there anybody who can help?" rather than trying to hide these things. And in many cases, when you do this in the later years they will come and accumulate even more difficult problems. So I think with this, we have been able to positively affect both the- the equity of the system, and also the quality of the system.

First, the PVI Gasaver commercial website is long on advertisement but short on facts that I could readily verify from any third party source. The site does not post or refer you to the actual studies which it claims were performed by a U.S. government agency. One quasi-technical evaluation (but in fact a simple testimonial) mentioned was performed on a 1973 Chevy V-8. I believe the technology has changed a bit since then and it seems to me that one should be careful in interpolating what, if any, impact the Gasaver would have on modern engines from this "test".
Second, in order to comply with fleet mileage requirements, car manufactuers have gone to extreme steps to shave off just a few ounces of weight from their vehicles in their efforts to improve fuel consumption. It seems safe to assume that the manufacturers have employed a chemist or two from time to time to look at improving the gasoline that goes into the engine. If an additive exists that generates the increase in mileage that PVI claims for the Gasaver, doesn't it seem likely that the auto industry would have long since implemented the technology (and made the discoverer of this elixir very wealthy)?
Third, to my knowledge, the EPA is the agency responsible for evaluating fuel-saving additives, not the various agencies referenced by PVI on its website. Granted, some of the material referenced by PVI is 15-20 years old so perhaps agency names and responsibilities have changed over time and I didn't check this out.
Fourth, the following excerpt is copied directly from an article put out by the Federal Trade Commission in 1992 at this website: http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/autos/gasave.htm Note that a device called the "Platinum Gasaver" is included in the list of tested devices although I can't confirm whether this is the same device now being sold by PVI.
Article begins:
Fast Facts After evaluating and testing more than 100 alleged gas-saving devices, the EPA has found only a few that improve mileage and none that do so significantly.
"Gas-Saving" Advertising Claims No government agency endorses gas-saving products for cars. The most that can be claimed in advertising is that the EPA has reached certain conclusions about possible gas savings by testing the product or by evaluating the manufacturer's own test data. If the seller claims that its product has been evaluated by the EPA, ask to see the test results. Or better yet, get a copy from the EPA.
EPA Evaluation Efforts - Devices Tested by EPA Vapor Bleed Devices. Similar to the Air Bleed devices, except that induced air is bubbled through a container of water/anti-freeze mixture, which usually is located in the engine compartment. (The EPA has evaluated: Frantz Vapor Injection System; Turbo Vapor Injection System; SCATPAC Vacuum Vapor Induction System: Econo-Mist Vacuum Vapor Injection System; Mark II Vapor Injection System; Platinum Gasaver, V-70 Vapor Injector; Hydro-Vac: POWERFUeL.)
Article ends.
The article indicates that none of the devices listed in the above paragraph were found to improve gas mileage.
Fifth, the EPA apparently has evaluated the Gasaver on two occasions - once in May 1981 and again in July 1991. The reports are not available anywhere on line that I could find but they can be purchased from Northernlights.com for a nominal amount if anyone is interested. (If anyone wants to know how to get the articles, let me know.) However, common sense suggests that if the results were favorable to the Gasaver, that PVI would have included the reports rather prominently on their website.
Conclusion? I have found, purchased and used a number of products that I would otherwise have never known about except for the internet. However, I think I will pass on the Gasaver until more explicit and verifiable data is provided.

From Business Today:
It is done. The Statler Towers, a landmark overlooking Niagara Square, is now owned by local restaurateur Mark Croce after languishing almost two years in bankruptcy. But the saga is far from over. Croce plans to get the bottom floor open so he can host weddings and banquets in the grand Golden Ballroom and refurbished terrace. Stabilizing the structure will cost a lot of money, however, and Croce expects to get the government to help out. People may grumble and say ' let the private sector do it,' but the private sector passed on the opportunity. Almost every developer in town looked at the Statler and balked. A job that size will take public money, and years from now, if it succeeds, people will be glad it was done.
Doing your taxes seems to get more complicated every year. During the annual Buffalo News Tax Help Line Call-in Night, volunteers from the local chapter of the New York State Society of Certified Public Accountants, people had all sorts of questions. Many were handled by phone, but others were done during an on-line chat, which can be read on this blog.
High school students form across the region showed off their financial literacy skills at the annual MoneySkills competition at the University at Buffalo. Questions ranging from compounding interest rates to how much Goldman Sachs valued Facebook for were handled in a game show environment. Members of the winning team won $250 college scholarships and the overall winner won an iPad.
Charlie Sheen, the unpredictable actor, is everywhere, even in Western New York. The catch phrase he has been using on talk shows to explain what he is doing - "Duh, winning" - is being emblazoned on T-shirts by the New Buffalo Shirt Factory in Clarence. The company thinks they may be for Sheen's upcoming tour called the "Violent Torpedo of Truth" tour. Can't wait.
Who is getting hired, promoted and honored?

Q&A Session with The Pewter Plank
It's that time again! The Patriots are heading down to sunny Florida for a preseason matchup with the Bucs this week, and, as usual, we've gotten together with a blogger covering the Patriots opponent for a little Q&A session. This week we actually have a double-feature Q&A. Today we'll be running our interview with Patrik Nohe from Fansided's The Pewter Plank. Tomorrow, we'll be touching base with Bloguin's own source for Tampa Bay football, Buc Stop.
Let's hear what Patrik had to say about the Buccaneers...
1. Recap the Bucs offseason for us. How would you grade their draft? their free agency?
The Bucs had a solid off-season, though if you listen to ESPN they'll tell you they didn't do enough. Tampa prefers to build through the draft and to resign it's own guys. This year saw them add three potential defensive starters to the front seven. The team added defensive ends Adrian Clayborn and Da'Quan Bowers in the first two rounds before adding Mason Foster to play middle linebacker in round three.
Free agency wasn't splashy, with the Bucs opting to re-sign Davin Joseph, Jeremy Trueblood and Quincy Black, while adding only a punter. A lot of people saw the Bucs cap figure and wondered why they didn't try to go after a big name, but GM Mark Dominik is also aware of the fact that he has the league's youngest team and a lot of the core players will be coming up for contracts soon. If I had to grade it I'd give the draft a B+ and free agency a C. It's not that they didn't handle business in free agency, they were fine, but there are a few issues that went unaddressed and the team did have the money to make another move or two and shore things up.
2. Josh Freeman was one of the top QB's in the 2010 season. How far will his progression go in 2011? Does he have the game to lift the Bucs to a NFC South title?
I can't think of too many players that had a better season in their first full year as a starter, second season as a pro. I mean outside of Dan Marino who started the pro-bowl as a rookie and had arguably the greatest passing season in NFL history in just his second year, there aren't too many young QB's who have had the kind of success Freeman did last season. Josh Freeman was a touchdown throw off the Bucs single season record (25 TD's, 6 INT), he went 10-6 and he lead six comeback victories, but what excites me most about Freeman is his ability to improvise. No play is ever dead due to Freeman's mobility and accuracy. And for all his ability, he's also good with ball security. Not a lot of turnovers from Freeman last season, just six picks and he lost three fumbles. I think he should improve a lot this season, you could literally see him grow throughout the course of last year and he enters this season the unquestioned leader in Tampa with a ton of confidence. I don't know he'll improve on the interception figure, six is low for even the best, but I do expect him to have a better season throwing the ball. Josh Freeman is for real.
3. Is LeGarette Blount a one year wonder or is he the running back of the future in Tampa?
It's tough to say, right now Blount is trying to be an every down back which is a mistake. LeGarrette Blount is a downhill power-runner, in the pros and college he has seven receptions combined and he was a liability last year in pass-pro. Putting him on the field every down is going to compromise the passing attack to some degree and wear down Blount a lot faster. LGB is at his best when you just ask him to carry the ball, he may be one-dimensional but that one dimension is very good. He is the type of bruising back who gets better throughout the course of a game and can just take over with a lead in the 4th. That's his best asset, a tired defense does not enjoy taking on LeGarrette Blount at the end of a game. Unfortunately, if Blount gets worn down from staying on the field on 3rd down, he's not going to be as effective. So I guess in answer to your question, if the Bucs play to Blount's strengths and don't ask him to be something he's not, he will have a great future in Tampa. He certainly has all the tools. Last year the Bucs ranked 28th in rushing when Blount entered the lineup and by season's end they had the 7th ranked rushing attack in the NFL. He ran for 1,007 yards despite getting just seven starts and he averaged over 100 yards a game the last five weeks of the season. Off the field he seems to have come into his own as well. I expect big things from him.
4. What do you think of Raheem Morris as a head coach? Where would you put him in terms of the top coaches in the NFC?
Raheem Morris is one of the best sound-bites in football, the best sound-bite if you're not into feet. I know Patriots fans are partial to the glib stylings of Hoody McTerse, but let me say having a coach that just blurts out whatever he's thinking is great. Maybe not from a competitive standpoint, but it also hasn't seemed to hinder him much either. Morris has this infectious enthusiasm that the young Bucs have really bought into. He's also probably the only coach in football who is younger than one of his captains, Ronde Barber is Raheem Morris' senior by a year. But rather than having a strange effect, that seems to have been a rallying cry for this Bucs team. Everyone is trying to prove themselves, the youngest team in the NFL has the youngest coach and it's them against the world. He's certainly a gifted motivator and his candor is a breath of fresh air when it comes to NFL coaches.
Now, do I put him up with the top coaches in the NFL? NO. He may be one day, but he's not even 35 years old and he's coached for just two seasons. That is not enough of a sample size to make that judgment on. Just like it would have been premature to call Bill Belichick a bad coach for tanking the Browns in the 90's, it's too early to call Raheem Morris a good coach for having a 10 win season in just his second year. He's got a lot of promise, but it's too early to put him up with the best in the business.
5. The starters won't play much in the 2nd preseason game, so give us something you are watching out for in Thursday's game?
Tampa's starters might play more than you think. The Bucs were very aggressive in their first preseason game, opting to call their offensive and defensive plays as if it were a game with real ramifications. Whereas the Patriots are an established dynasty, the Bucs are still green and this extra game experience could really prove beneficial. Also, young players like Adrian Clayborn and Mason Foster are just cutting their teeth, giving them a few extra series would help them a lot as they hurdle towards the start of the NFL season without the benefit of a full offseason to prepare under the auspices of their own coaching staff.
I'll let you in on another secret too. The Bucs are really trying hard to move their backup QB, Josh Johnson. Josh Johnson is an exceptionally capable quarterback whose route to the Bucs starting QB job was blocked by Josh Freeman, but make no mistake about it he will be involved in a QB competition somewhere next year, the guy can really play. The Bucs don't want to get Josh Freeman hurt so don't expect to see him too much, but I do think a lot of the other starters will stick around when Josh Johnson comes in. The Bucs would much rather get a pick back for him than let him walk at the end of the year without compensation. And showcasing the young man with some of the first-teamers is a good way to try and drum up some interest.
6. Prediction Time! Will the Bucs make the playoffs? If so, how far can this team go in 2011?
I'm going to be honest, I think the Bucs go 9-7 this season and find themselves just missing another Wild Card spot. The schedule is a lot more challenging this season and the division has gotten decidedly better. I do think the Bucs will be a much improved team this year, but their record may not indicate it.

Day 1
Fly to Catania and short transfer to our hotel in Catania's city centre (approx. 20 mins). In the afternoon we have time to visit this beautiful city, awarded the UNESCO World Heritage status in 2002 for its impressive lava-built Baroque buildings.
Day 2
Transfer to Etna South, where we clip into our snowshoes and walk along a section of the 'Pista Altomontana' (high trail), a path that circumnavigates 3 sides of Mt Etna at an average altitude of 1,800m. We walk for approx. 14km, surrounded by lush pine forests and black lava flows, which create a striking contrast with the white snow. We then make our way back to Rifugio Sapienza, set at 1900m on Mt Etna's southern slope. (5 hours, + 460m - 460m)
Day 3
Today we enjoy a spectacular walk up to the Valle del Bove (The Ox's Valley), an extensive depression that opened up on the eastern side of the mountain thousands of years ago as a result of a massive landslide. We then continue up to 2,500m, where we are rewarded with inspirational views of Sicily's entire coastline and of the four craters that make up the top of Mt Etna. (5 hours hiking / + 500m - 400m)
Optional: According to the weather and conditions on the volcano, there is a chance to climb by cable car up to 2,500m and then further on foot to approx. 3,000m. You will be escorted by a volcano or alpine guide (6 hours hiking, + 450m - 1,550m). Price: up to EUR60 per person (depending on the group size), payable locally in cash. You are strongly advised to take a waterproof/windproof jacket, a warm top and to wear long trousers and gaiters.
Day 4
Tranfer to Catania airport (approx. 1 hour) and fly to London.

90% of a child's brain is developed by age 5. That is amazing! But, what does that actually mean? It means that the Early Experiences that a child has during this time affects a child's learning for the rest of their lives! It means that you must submerge them in reading; it means that you must submerge them in writing and all sorts of age appropriate learning! This is VITAL for all future learning!
Early education affects the quality of a child's educational foundation by establishing a sturdy foundation for learning. The quality of Early Education significantly influences academic and social development. A vast body of research demonstrates that early education matters. By participating in stimulating, educational materials, it provides a window of opportunity to dramatically shape a child's brain when it is rapidly developing. High quality Education offers one of the highest returns. Studies show that Pre-K Education can improve school readiness and raise performance on academic tests. A strong educational foundation means a child is more likely to obtain a College Degree, or own a home and be employed which increases tax revenue as a result of higher earnings. Doesn't it make sense to influence your child with early education? Of course it does!

US STOCKS-Wall St posts worst day since June on Syria concerns
- Tweet
- Share this
* S&P 500 closes under 100-day moving average
* Crude oil jumps on Middle East supply concerns
* Tiffany's falls after results, Goodyear up on labor contract
* Indexes down: Dow 1 pct, S&P 1.4 pct, Nasdaq 2 pct
NEW YORK, Aug 27 (Reuters) - Wall Street stocks suffered their worst day since June on Tuesday, slumping in a broad decline as geopolitical uncertainty rose over a possible U.S.-led military strike by the West against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's forces.
The S&P 500 closed under its 100-day moving average for the first time since June 24, a sign of weak near-term momentum. The day's fall extended recent declines on uncertainty over when the U.S. Federal Reserve will start to slow its stimulative monetary policies.
Odds grew that a strike would occur against al-Assad's forces for a chemical weapons attack against civilians as a number of nations and groups - including Britain, France, Canada and the Arab League - joined Washington in urging a firm response to Assad. Adding to the tension, Russia has supported Assad Syria's civil war.
"This (stocks) move is as much about the potential spillover effect in the region as it is the potential for a U.S. strike," said Leo Grohowski, chief investment officer at BNY Mellon Wealth Management, adding that because geopolitical risk had been "ratcheted up," portfolios would need to be reallocated away from riskier investments like stocks.
"Doing that in a market that was already acting sloppy is cause for further weakness," he said.
Investor nervousness was reflected in a jump of more than 20 percent in the CBOE volatility index over the last two days. The uncertainty also lifted gold to a 15-week peak.
Western sources who attended a meeting in Istanbul between envoys of an alliance opposed to Assad and the Syrian National Coalition said "action to deter further use of chemical weapons by the Assad regime could come as early as in the next few days."
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said U.S. military forces in the region are "ready to go" should President Barack Obama order action against Syria.
About 80 percent of companies traded on both the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq fell, while all 10 S&P 500 sectors ended down.
Financials and materials were the weakest of the day, with both falling about 2.5 percent. Both groups are closely tied to the pace of economic growth, as are energy shares. However, losses in that group were offset by a 2.8 percent rise in crude oil.
"The potential disruption of Middle East oil supply will not only provide support for commodities, but this is a sector that has underperformed, where valuations are compelling," said Grohowski, who helps oversee $175 billion in client assets in New York.
The Dow Jones industrial average was down 170.33 points, or 1.14 percent, at 14,776.13. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was down 26.30 points, or 1.59 percent, at 1,630.48. The Nasdaq Composite Index was down 79.05 points, or 2.16 percent, at 3,578.52.
Tuesday marked the biggest daily decline for the S&P since June 20. The benchmark index is now down 2.9 percent in August, putting it on track for its worst month since May 2012.
Volume was light, with about 6.18 billion shares changing hands on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq and NYSE MKT, below the daily average of about 6.31 billion shares so far this year.
Goldman Sachs fell 3 percent to $153.23 a day after a source said the company lost tens of millions of dollars after a computer glitch led to a flood of erroneous options trades last week.
Shares of Tiffany & Co dipped 1 percent to $80.82 after it reported second-quarter sales that missed expectations, although the jeweler raised its full-year profit view on strong results in China.
Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co rose 2 percent to $19.01 as the S&P's biggest gainer after the company detailed a new master labor contract.
U.S. regulators have asked Nasdaq OMX Group and NYSE Euronext to come up with a timeline of Thursday's three-hour trading disruption. But the rival exchange operators have been unable to agree on the details, according to several sources familiar with the situation
Shares of Nasdaq OMX fell 2.3 percent to $29.94 while NYSE Euronext fell 1.2 percent to $41.81.

Today was the first time family members of an East Texas man who was murdered last year came face-to-face with any of the suspects.
Sarah Haslam and Andrew Norwine each entered not guilty pleas today in a pre-trial hearing in Upshur County court. Both are charged with capital murder in the death of Ronnie Gammage. Gammage's body was found back in December in Upshur County, just days after he was reported missing. Investigators say the suspects lured Gammage into a car, took him to a construction site, beat him, cut his throat, then poured gasoline on his body and set him on fire.
"The pain is every day, the loss is every day I don't even like to leave my house. I'm thinking he's going to come home or he's going to call me. It effects me and my family, it's taken something away from us that can never be replaced. My family will never be the same," says Ronnie's mother, Frankie Gammage.
The judge in the case is filing an order to determine the trial date for the defendants. The third suspect, Daniel Jones, waived his pre-trial hearing.

- How to Read a Study Record
The Alpha-Tocopherol Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention (ATBC) Study was a large randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2x2 factorial design, primary prevention trial testing the effects of alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene supplements on cancer incidence and mortality conducted in Finland as a collaboration between the Public Health Institute (KTL) of Finland and the U.S. National Cancer Institute. The intervention period ended in 1993, and the research project was continued as a passive follow-up of participants during the post-intervention period to monitor potential intervention effects on cancers, as well as other morbidity and mortality endpoints. The cohort follow-up serves as a basis for cancer epidemiological research of a wide range of cancer risk factors, biomarkers, and genetic predisposition based on data and biologic samples collected during the study. This research is aimed at testing hypotheses relevant to cancer prevention, etiology, and early detection, and the study material provide an invaluable resource for the study of dietary, biochemical and molecular hypotheses. The analyses are made particularly informative in that nearly 20 years of follow-up are available for study.

The ATBC study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, primary prevention trial to determine whether daily supplementation with a-tocopherol, (SqrRoot) -carotene, or both would reduce the incidence of lung or other cancers among male smokers. Between 1985 and 1988, 29,133 men ages 50 to 69 years, who smoked at least five cigarettes per day, were recruited from southwestern Finland. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either a-tocopherol as dl-a-tocopheryl acetate (50 mg/day), (SqrRoot) -carotene as all-trans-(SqrRoot) -carotene (20 mg/day), both supplements, or placebo capsules for 5-8 years (median 6.1 years) through April 30, 1993. Post-intervention follow-up has continued through the Finnish Cancer Registry and other national registries, and epidemiological analyses continue to be conducted.

Comments about Dimplex Winston White Electric Fireplace Mantel Package - DFP26-1109W:
We purchased this product for our main living space. It looks VERY nice, and I believe it would fit-in with most decor. The unit gives off a great deal of heat, and is an excellent supplemental heat source. The mantel is heavy, so I recommend having someone to help set it up.

The Perfect accessory for a cozy room!
By Raeann
from San Diego, CA
I use this fireplace mostly for ambiance, but recently tried out the heat.... It was perfect for my small beach cottage on the ocean. The heat takes the edge off on a chilly foggy day. I would recommend this product to everyone. Well built and BEAUTIFUL. It was simple to assemble (10 minutes max) and then just plug it in, decorate the mantle and wait for all the oohs and ahhhs.

Beautiful Fireplace
By Cooptastic
from Uxbridge, Ontario
I love the look and quality of this fireplace. Price was steep, but you get what you pay for. I'm very happy with the this purchase. The only negative was that we would have expected that the firebox would be attached, with hardware, into the mantel, but it isn't. It sits in the mantel, unsecured, although it's heavy enough not to be a real concern. Overall, a great addition to our recently renovated family room.

A solar hot water collector that makes electricity, too
Startup GMZ Energy thinks solar hot water panels can pull double duty.
The company today announced it raised $14 million in series C funding to commercialize a product that will draw electricity from solar hot water collectors. It will also make small chips able to convert heat from car exhaust pipes and industrial machines into electricity.
GMZ Energy, which was spun out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Boston College in 2008, has created an improved material for converting the energy in heat into electric power. The process works in reverse so an electric current will produce heat.

Massimo Vignelli was born in Milan, Italy. He is a designer who has done work such as package design, furniture design, public signage and showroom design through Vignelli Associates. He has said, "If you can design one thing, you can design everything," and this is reflected in his broad range of work. Vignelli works firmly within the Modernist tradition, and focuses on simplicity through the use of basic geometric forms in all of his work. He has worked with companies such as IBM and American Airlines.
This most important virtue for a designer to possess. Discipline serves the designer from the project concept to its end realization. It is the governing factor in the intricacies of a concept, guiding the designer throughout the whole process. Without it, it it total anarchy, total randomness, pure chaos. Discipline is the attitude that helps us discern right from the wrong and guides us to achieve consistency of language in whatever we do. Discipline is what helps us navigate through the social context in which we operate. Discipline is what makes us responsible toward ourselves, toward our clients, toward the the society in which we live. It is through discipline that we are able to improve ourselves, mentally and physically; to offer the best of ourselves to everything around us, including every project on which we work. —Massimo Vignelli: Vignelli A to Z
unfortunately his 72′ map was replaced by this awful new map:
which is clearly a failure at being legible and a map. most of the curves are unnecessary, do we really need to know that the metro is not a straight line? no one cares. The purpose is to be legible and clear, which it is not.

The Monterey Peninsula and its mountainous hinterland constitute a wonderful destination for the cyclist. A full spectrum of trails is available in this beautiful stretch of Pacific coastline, from challenging up-and-down epics to pleasant and painless pedaling tours suitable for all ages. Renting a bike gives you an unparalleled mode of transport for soaking in the tremendous natural panoramas and the delightful local culture.
An easy but rewarding route is the Monterey Bay Coastal Recreation Trail, which encompasses a particularly celebrated section from Fisherman's Wharf to Lovers Point. Cyclists of all ages and abilities will appreciate this aesthetic trek, which includes marvelous vantages over Monterey Bay and passes near some of Monterey's most cherished attractions--from Cannery Row to the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
For intermediate cyclists, an excellent choice is the Hennekens Ranch Loop, an exploration of the extensive dominion of the stunning, undeveloped Fort Ord Public Lands--a great redoubt of wild scenery on the Monterey Peninsula, and home to one of the newest declared national monuments in the country. This biking route, recommended (like the rest detailed here) by the Monterey County Convention and Visitors Bureau, traverses eight miles of the Fort Ord countryside, involving as it does a nice range of hills and flats as well as a rich mosaic of natural habitats. Wildlife is plentiful along the way, so keep your eyes peeled as you cruise the rolling, winding roadways.
Another fine option is 17-Mile Drive, one of the region's most well-known bicycling routes. A bike lane between Cannery Row and Cypress Point offers secure and easy cycling along this venerable touring trip--not to mention stunning views. More experienced bicyclists can venture farther to Pebble Beach.
More challenging routes are easy to come by along this rugged expanse of jaw-dropping coast--not least an exhilarating adventure down renowned Highway 1 between Monterey and Big Sur. Best early in the day to avoid the thickest traffic, this pedaling jaunt is an acclaimed one given the world-class scenery spilling away on either side of you as you muscle your way along.
Inquire about renting a bicycle today, and take to the trails and roads to experience the Monterey Peninsula and the California Coast Ranges--some of the grandest and loveliest landscapes on the planet.

Many Catholics are in the habit of holding their hands in the "Orans" posture during the Lord's Prayer along with the celebrant. Some do this on their own as a private devotional posture while some congregations make it a general practice for their communities.
Is this practice permissible under the current rubrics, either as a private practice not something adopted by a particular parish as a communal gesture?
No position is prescribed in the Roman Missal for an assembly gesture during the Lord's Prayer.

FREE... 5 easy Tips.
To Stop a Dog Barking
We don't want to stop a dog barking completely... the main objective is to train the dog to bark when it is appropriate and to not worry about barking at "Normal neighbourhood activity". To do this... you need to be consistent and persistent. Plus.... remember, it is no good correcting the dog at very high levels, when doing the anti bark training, this could have bad effects on your dog's personality. ***Short - instant - consistent*** dog barking training messages are required. How do we achieve this?
Right, this is where it gets interesting. Not only do dogs vary in breed, size, age and the environment they live in - they also have their own personalities. Our safe anti bark collars cater to all dog types - from small dogs to Big dogs. Citronella bark collars, electric dog bark collars and Sonic barking dog collars are three types of collars for barking dogs that you can choose from depending on your needs and preferences.
For suggestions you can always call our 7-day helpline 1300-843-364

The first step in loving ME is knowing ME... and while it sounds crazy that it's possible to not know ourselves, most of us really don't.
Yes, most of us have some idea of who we are. We've taken a personality test at work... we've done some soul searching... we know our astrological sun sign... and we've been working long enough to know our strengths and 'weaknesses', but truly knowing ME beyond the image, the fears and the societal pressures takes more than that. It takes a conscious choice to actually say, "You know what, I am going to get off this crazy treadmill called life, where everyone is running around trying to get to the next job, house, etc. and I am going to find out what I really want from my life... and to do that I need to first understand who I really am!" And it takes help from people who can help you peel away of the layers of images, masks and yuck that aren't you.
I have worked with lots of women to help them find their REAL ME ... I've spent years finding my own REAL ME... and what I can tell you is that knowing ME happens on at least three levels, probably more. But let's start with two:
LEVEL ONE: Who are you NOT? The gremlins or the mean girl in your head.
Before we wake up and live on what I call 'self awareness mode' vs. autopilot, we are driven by our fears, defense patterns and belief systems -- all yucked up stuff that has nothing to do with who we really are, in fact they keep us from the REAL ME. They are the voices in your head that tell you that you can't, the defenses that push people and good situations away, and if you don't know what yours are, they will silently run your life. How do you find them? Check out the Dare #1 below to get started identifying and redeploying your Gremlin Crew.
LEVEL TWO: Who are you NOT? The baggage you were handed but that you don't have to keep carrying.
Obligations, shoulds, musts... all those hard, heavy bags that we pick up from society, relatives and the media. They tell us what we should do, who we should be, how we have to act and they are full of heavy emotions like guilt, self doubt, and overwhelm. But you know what? Yes, we've all been handed these bags along the path of our life, AND no one is making us continue to carry them. We choose to carry them and the are H-E-A-V-Y! So heavy, that they keep us from seeing the real me. Women have been carrying these bags for centuries, so it's no wonder we have things like guilt programmed into our DNA... but we can no longer afford to carry these heavy bags around. How do you start kicking them to the curb (or to the recylcing bin?) Read Dare #2 and get started!
DARES: take one, take two-- what do you have to lose?
Dare #1: Have a Face Off With Your Inner Mean Girl
You know that voice in your head that loves to tell you what you did wrong, what you should have done or how you will never be good enough? Some call it the inner critic. I call her your inner mean girl, and as my friend and host of the Women's Master Series Amy Ahlers says, this girl loves to tell Big Fat Lies! My mean girl is named Mean Patty and she has red pigtails and freckles. What does your mean girl look like? What is her name? What are the lies she tells you? Write that all down. Draw a picture. And then have a Mean Girl Face Off. I want you to literally talk to her and tell her that she needs to knock it off! Give her a new job. Ask her to say the opposite of the mean big lie. And tell her to give you a break!
Dare #2: Give up Guilt.
Guilt is a totally useless emotion - as least as far as we use it as women to beat ourselves up. I dare you to give up guilt... and to do it by stopping the obligations, the shoulds and the could haves. Don't take the guilt from other people - if they try to guilt you, name it and call them on it. If you find yourself wallowing in the guilt, notice how it makes you feel and what it is actually helping you accomplish. And then ask yourself in that moment - what do i WANT to do right now? And then do it.
There is nothing more beautiful or powerful than a woman who truly loves herself!

The Mouse TrueBlot® Western Blot Kit contains the critical supporting reagents, buffers, and substrates for Akt immunoprecipitation and Western blotting of samples using TrueBlot second step immunoblotting reagents in conjunction with your own primary IP antibody and primary (Mouse IgG) Western blotting antibody. TrueBlot technology enables unhindered detection of protein bands of interest which would otherwise be obscured by the presence of reduced and denatured heavy and light chain immunoglobulin in the blot (as detected by the conventional immunoblotting HRP anti-mouse IgG reagent). Mouse IgG TrueBlot® ULTRA is the unique horseradish peroxidase conjugated anti-mouse IgG immunoblotting second step reagent which enables detection of Akt immunoblotted target protein bands, without hindrance by interfering immunoglobulin heavy and light chains from your IP antibody. Use it in place of your usual HRP anti-mouse IgG immunoblotting second step reagent. It is easy to generate publication-quality Akt IP Western Blot data with Mouse IgG TrueBlot® ULTRA.
Mouse IgG TrueBlot ULTRA is ideal for use in protocols involving immunoblotting of immunoprecipitated proteins. TrueBlot preferentially detects the non-reduced form of mouse IgG over the reduced, SDS-denatured form of IgG. When the immunoprecipitate is fully reduced immediately prior to SDS-gel electrophoresis, reactivity of Mouse IgG TrueBlot ULTRA with the 55 kDa heavy chains and the 23 kDa light chains of the immunoprecipitating antibody is minimized thereby eliminating interference by the heavy and light chains of the immunoprecipitating antibody in Akt IP Western Blotting applications.
