Managing a peer to peer portfolio effectively requires experience, skill, and time. There are a number of investors intrigued by peer to peer lending, but simply don't want to do the legwork of reviewing borrowers credit and investing tiny chunks of their portfolio into many different loans. This is particularly true for investors looking to put a significant amount of money into their account. The time to get the portfolio fully invested and then the ongoing maintenance in keeping it fully invested can be quite demanding. The good news is both Lending Club and Prosper offer solutions for investors looking for a more passive p2p lending option.
Lending Club PRIME
There are two types of accounts at Lending Club, standard and PRIME. The main difference is with standard the investors personally invests all of their money on the platform, whereas with a Lending Club PRIME account the money is automatically invested. Investors specify a desired loan interest rate to target and tell Lending Club whether to reinvest the payments made on the loan. Investors may choose over time to personally begin managing their reinvestments if they want to take control of the account.
Lending Club PRIME accounts are only available to investors opening an account funded with at least $25,000. There is a one-time fee for the service, which is 0.8% charged when the money is transferred into the account (so a minimum of $2,000).
Prosper Premier
Prosper just announced today that they will be offering a passive account, dubbed Prosper Premier. Investors tell Prosper the loan grade and note term target allocation, maximum amount per loan to manage level of diversification, and whether to automatically reinvest. Premier accounts have a fee of 0.8% charged when the funds are invested, but according to Social Lending Network, for a limited time this fee will be waived. The minimum account will also be $25,000.
These types of accounts can be a great way for investors to get their portfolio fully funded, giving them the option to take the reigns at a later date, if desired. Lenders can also monitor the performance of the loans over time and get a hands-on feel for the specific types of loans that they may choose to avoid in the future.

I like the inserts and they fit well. I did have trouble getting it to fit flat because of the alignment pin on a 1969 Rockwell/Delta table - problem was solved by using a smooth face steel hammer and hammering it flush over the pin, then taking a razor scraper and taking off what mushroomed up around the pim - fits perfect now and is very tight fit - should stay in place just fine compared with the old aluminum one. Nice color too!

I have used my first insert and it fit perfectly in my 14 inch Delta bandsaw. All I had to do was clean all the sawdust out of the hole in the table with a scribe. The insert sets flat with the table. I would give this item an excellent rating if it had a line molded into it for the blade slot. Very Good product.

I bought 3 packs for several different tools. They are a bit to loose for my Delta bandsaw. I would have liked a tight fit so they would not want to turn while I would be using the bandsaw. I use some for a router table I made out of a old cast iron saw top. I drilled the hole a little smaller so these inserts would be nice and tight and not come out when using the router table.

Posted March 19, 2009
Ordered 2 sets when they were on sale. They fit my Grizzly 0555 perfectly. I tried another brand and had to spend a lot of time sawing and filing to make them fit. Ended up trashing them. Thanks Rockler for another fine product.

Mercy HospitalCardiac diagnostic testingFor more information on Cardiac diagnostic testing at Mercy Hospital, please call Related linksA program of: The Heart & Vascular Center offers a complete range of special tests to help diagnose and treat heart problems. Free parking is available close to the entrance. For your convenience, some cardiac tests are performed in Elk River, Fridley, Maple Grove and Buffalo by our physician partners, Metropolitan Heart and Vascular Institute. Mercy Heart and Vascular Center Tests include:Adult and pediatric echocardiogram (Echo) Cardiac 3T MRIMRI (magnetic resonance imaging) uses radiofrequency waves and a strong magnetic field to obtain images of internal organs and tissues. Cardiac MRI gives the physician the ability to clearly see the function and structures of the heart such as the valves and blood vessels. It is also useful in determining the extent of heart damage caused by progressive types of heart disease or a heart attack. Cardiac MRI is being used to diagnose heart diseases earlier, determine treatment and in assessing recovery progress after treatment.
CT cardiac calcium scoreCommonly called a "Heart Scan," a Cardiac Calcium Score is a non-invasive way using x-ray technology with a CT scanner to determine the amount of calcified plaque in the arteries of the heart. Calcium build up is a sign of coronary artery disease (CAD). This can be present and identified even before symptoms are present. The goal of calcium scoring is to screen for coronary artery disease (CAD). Calcium scoring does not image or predict specific narrowing in the arteries of the heart. You do not need a referral for this exam.
CT coronary angiogramThis is a non-invasive way to look at the blood flow and specific arteries of the heart. Using x-ray technology from a CT scanner, high speed multiple slice pictures of the heart are taken with the help of intravenous contrast dye. This makes it possible to see the coronary arteries and the degree of plaque build up or narrowing in the arteries. The images are three dimensional and guide doctors as to whether further procedures such as coronary angioplasty, stent placement or coronary bypass surgery might help the patient.
Dobutamine stress echocardiogramIf you have a physical problem that prevents you from walking on a treadmill, your physician may order a stress echocardiogram using a medication called dobutamine. Dobutamine will cause your heart rate to slowly increase and your heart to pump harder. This is similar to the way your heart responds to exercise. The dobutamine will be given through an intravenous (IV) line. The medication will be started at a slow dose. You will be monitored throughout the test. The effects of the dobutamine wear off quickly after the test is done. The test takes 60 - 90 minutes.
Echocardiogram (Echo)An echocardiogram (echo) is an ultrasound study of your heart muscle, heart valves and pericardium (sac surrounding the heart) and some of the major blood vessels connected to the heart. The test uses sound waves to see how well your heart is working. A wand-like instrument makes the sound waves. As the wand is moved over your chest, pictures of the heart appear on a screen and are recorded. The test takes 30-45 minutes. Echocardiogram with "bubble" studyA bubble study can be used to add information to a regular echocardiogram or to a transesophageal echocardiogram. The most common reason for doing a bubble study is to look at the wall (septum) that divides the heart down the middle. A saline (salt water) solution is injected into your vein and then followed by the ultrasound image as it flows through your heart. Echocardiogram/stress echocardiogram with a contrast agentUse of a contrast agent can improve the quality of the pictures obtained during a regular echo or a Stress Echo. This may help the physician to better interpret or read your echo images. To give the contrast agent, a small intravenous (IV) catheter is put in a vein. A small amount of the contrast agent is slowly injected. One or more doses may be needed. The IV will be removed when the echo is completed.
EKG or ECGAn electrocardiogram is a recording of the electrical activity of your heart. Small, sticky patches are placed on your chest, arms and legs. These patches are connected to a machine that records the electrical activity of your heart, then prints this out on paper for your physician to interpret. The test usually takes less than 15 minutes to complete.
Exercise stress test (treadmill)This test will monitor the electrical activity of your heart as you exercise by walking on a treadmill. Exercise increases your heart rate and makes your heart work harder to pump blood to your muscles. You will walk on a treadmill, which will increase in speed and tilt upward (like a small hill) every three minutes for about 10 minutes. It is important that you wear comfortable clothes and walking shoes. If you are taking medicines, talk with your doctor about which ones you may take before this test. You will be asked to not eat or drink anything for two hours before the test. This test takes about one hour to complete.
Exercise stress test with nuclear myocardial perfusion imagingThis is also known as a Cardiolite stress test. This test allows your doctor to see if your heart muscle is getting the amount of blood that it needs through your coronary arteries. There are two parts to the test, a "stress" portion and a "rest" portion. Images of your heart will be taken with each portion. A small amount of a safe radioactive medicine, needed for the images, will be injected into your arm for both portions of the test. For the "stress" portion, you will walk on a treadmill until you reach a heart rate based upon your age. The radioactive medicine will be injected into your IV as you walk on the treadmill. After a short wait, you will be asked to lie on the exam table while a camera takes images of your heart. For the "rest" portion, you will receive an injection of the radioactive medicine and have images taken. Comparing the "stress" and "rest" images will help your doctor evaluate any areas where blood flow may be decreased to your heart muscle. The complete test may take one to two days to complete. You will know when your appointment is scheduled if it will be one or two days. If you are taking medicines, talk with your doctor about which ones you may take before each portion of the test. Holter monitoringYour doctor may want to observe your heart rhythm during your normal, everyday activities. For this test you will wear a small, portable EKG machine on a belt or shoulder strap for 24 or 48 hours. You will be asked to keep a diary of your activities and any unusual feelings that you have such as a fast heart rate, shortness of breath, chest pressure or chest pain.
MUGA (Multiple Gated Acquisition) scan or radionuclide ventriculographyThis test will help your doctor see how well your heart is pumping. A very low dose of radioactive medicine is injected into your IV. Using a computer and a sensitive radiation detector, the radiation within your heart is measured and displayed on a video monitor. Before and after the test, you may eat and drink as usual and take your medicines. Nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging with adenosine or dobutamineIf you cannot walk on a treadmill or cannot walk long enough, your doctor may order a stress test done with a special medicine. There are two portions to this test:
During each portion, images using the radioactive medicine (Cardiolite) and a camera will be obtained. If you cannot walk on the treadmill or can walk for only a very short time, your doctor may have your test done using a medicine (Adenosine) that will increase the amount of blood supply to your heart. If you cannot walk on the treadmill and also have lung disease, such as asthma or emphysema, your doctor may have your test done with Dobutamine, a medicine that will cause your heart rate to slowly increase and your heart to pump harder. Each of these medicines is given through an intravenous (IV) line. The radioactive imaging medicine will be injected after the infusion of these medicines. After a short wait, you will lie on the exam table while a camera takes pictures of your heart. Comparing the "stress" and "rest" images will help your doctor evaluate any areas where blood flow may be decreased to your heart muscle. The complete test may take one to two days to complete. You will know when your appointment is scheduled if it will be one or two days. If you are taking medicines, talk with your doctor about which ones you may take before each portion of the test. Stress echocardiogramA stress echocardiogram (echo) measures how well your heart responds to exercise. It uses ultrasound with a regular stress test to record images of your heart before and after exercise. The test takes 60 minutes.
Transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE)A transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) obtains images of your heart from a small ultrasound probe (about the size of a normal piece of food) that is placed in your esophagus or swallowing tube. The probe is at the end of a small flexible tube you swallow. The TEE gives excellent pictures of the heart because the heart lies in front of the esophagus. Do not eat or drink anything for six hours before the test. It is important that you ask your doctor for instructions about taking your medicines. You will be given medicine to help numb the back of your throat. This will make swallowing the tube easier. You will also be given sedating medicine through an intravenous (IV) line that will help you relax and decrease your gag reflex. This test requires 1-1/2 to two hours to complete. You will need a responsible adult who can drive you home and stay with you for 12 hours after the test. Resources

Liver Biopsy (cont.) Medical Author:

Alternatives to Liver BiopsyIn some instances, abdominal imaging studies can help make a diagnosis. As an example, blood tests might suggest that a patient is suffering from iron overload related to hereditary hemochromatosis. Specially-tailored MRI scans can help determine whether or not iron overload is truly present without the need for a liver biopsy. Increasingly, non-invasive approaches are being used to assess the severity of chronic hepatitis C. Commercially available blood tests like Hepascore® and FibroSURE® assess blood levels of hyaluronic acid and other chemicals to help estimate the degree of liver inflammation and fibrosis (i.e. scarring) in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Fibroelastography utilizes a specially-designed ultrasound unit to non-invasively assess the degree of liver fibrosis is patients with chronic hepatitis C. It remains to be determined whether fibroelastography will provide as accurate an assessment of liver fibrosis in other disease states (for example, chronic hepatitis B or alcoholic liver disease) as in chronic hepatitis C. Fibroelastography is undergoing testing in the United States and is not widely available at this time. Next Page: Must Read Articles Related to Liver Biopsy

What Notre Dame's T-Shirt Should REALLY Say
My wife and I were discussing Charlie's new motivational t-shirt - "Dive Right In." Well, since we have spent some time on JUST that very chore over the years [coming up with motivational sayings for team seasons], we feel Charlie "missed the boat" (if everyone will pardon a feeble attempt at a pun).
Despite Weis's desire to never again mention last year's debacle - that 3-9 season - we believe the core of this year's football campaign should focus on doing something about proving they are the SAME team, but that record is NOT indicative of how good they really are! [And from what we read in the interviews with the players and everyone else EXCEPT Charlie - it seems to be!] Hence, the food-for-motivation!
A good t-shirt & motivational mantra to chant during warm-ups, during laps, during practice closings would go something like this: 3-9 in 2007 on the front of the shirt; 9-3 in 2008 on the back of the t-shirt with the statement: "Let's turn it around!"
In doing this simple step, Charlie embraces 2007 rather than trying to dismiss it, develops a team goal or objective that is possible to achieve given the schedule, acquires a mantra for the players and coaches to use as a constant reminder and show of support for one another "against the outside world."
People say motivation only works until the ball is kicked. Depends on the coach. The timing of the reminders in a game or competition. The belief in the goal behind the motivation. For instance: Jason Lezak going for the gold in his leg of the relay - the Miracle on Ice in 1980 - Notre Dame's come-from-behind-win against MSU in 2006 - Rockne's boys against Army in 1928.
Motivation - underused, oversold, but mostly MISunderstood.
Food-for-thought as ND begins its Renaissance.

Victoria Glass Fireplace Screen
Victoria Glass Fireplace Screen
I say this screen in the catalogue and online. I needed one for our gas fireplace that throws off a lot of heat and I wanted a shield. This was the perfect solution and it is beautiful. Our fire now looks real behind the glass. The only negative is that the glass does get hot even though it is almost two feet from the fire. It would have helpful to have had handles attached on the wings to be able to move it easily.
January 10, 2014
Just gorgeous!!
Was looking for the perfect piece to put in front of my gas fireplace in my office for the longest time, and this was absolutely perfect! It's beautiful, without being too "busy". I have not yet turned my gas logs on yet, but I imagine it will look stunning glowing behind the glass. The screen seems sturdy and durable, but since I've only had it for a couple weeks, I won't rate that yet. There was very minor assembly to do, which I was able to do myself in about 5 minutes. If you love the look of it from the pictures, you won't be disappointed!

Bevelled glass firescreen
I ordered this firescreen for one of my two gas fireplaces. The first one came in with two cracks in the glass in spite of excellent packaging. I called and Frontgate immediately sent out another replacement firescreen. I packed up the original one and sent it back after I received the new one. The new one was perfect and looks beautiful with the fireplace in my bedroom. I was very impressed with how fast Frontgate replaced the original order that was cracked, they have excellent customer service, as well as fine products. I have never been disappointed with a Frontgate order and will continue to order from them!
August 13, 2012
Great appearance, but not functional
I love the look of the firescreen that I purchased. But I wish I had been told before I bought it that is was not to be used with a really hot fire. This makes it less practical. Also there are not handles to pick up this very heavy screen. Thus it should be purchased for looks and not utility. Not good if you burn a lot of hot fires, probably best with a gas fire.
October 25, 2011
Yes ... BAM! That is the Victoria Glass Fireplace Screen did to my living room.
1. Came on time
2. Packed like a new born baby
3. Easy to assemble
4. Prettier than the picture
5. Sturdy
6. Popped the entire living room!!!
7. Worth every penny

Victorian Fireplace screen
The screen is majestic and beautiful, especially when the fire is lit. we received it in December, at the height of the season....
There is a tiny crack in the glass, in the center panel,at the top by the beveled circle. Try as we might, there was just no time to call and alert you of the situation, as we have 5 living grandparents and getting their gifts out was of utmost importance...
the crack is small, and only we really notice it, but you might want to alert the manufacturer, because I'll bet it happened in the shipping process. It appeared to be foamed and wrapped well. We are very satisfied with all else. Thank you!

Quality Does Not Match Cost
I ordered this fireplace screen because it had so many postive reviews, however, I was not as impressed at the majority of those reviewers. I had previously purchased the Orleans Fireplace screen, and I am extemely happy with that purchase. I wanted another Orleans screen only to find out that it has been discontinued by Frontgate, so I ordered the Victoria screen instead. The beveled glass is beautiful to look at, but the screen is flimsy, and the quality does not match the cost of the screen. Because of this, I ended up returning the screen.
August 16, 2012
One of the My Favorite Things!
I love this product! It is absolutely beautiful and gives the entire fireplace such elegance. It looks especially beautiful when a fire is crackling behind the beveled panes of glass.
The packaging to ensure that the item did not shatter was unbelievable. The box was thickly padded to protect the glass. Assembly was easy and only took a minute. I would highly recommend this item. My only hesitation would be if I had young children in the house. I would be concerned about them knocking it over onto our hard surface floors not to mention any fingerprints that they may leave.

Main Considerations
Function: Will it keep me dry? When new, rainwear touted as "waterproof" is rain-worthy. Over time, however, rainwear fabric requires care to revive its water-shedding ability. (Such maintenance is often overlooked.) What about soft shells? Most are "water-resistant," meaning they can withstand light precipitation but not a drenching rain.
Comfort: Will I swelter inside it? While waterproof/breathable fabric technologies can make rainwear comfortable to wear during vigorous activity, so can other factors: use of vents, individual metabolisms, humidity, temperature, the clothing worn underneath rainwear, and more.
Durability: Can it handle hard use? Face fabrics (nylon or polyester, usually) come in different weights, or denier, a spec not always provided by manufacturers. Though 70-denier (70D) is a common weight, outerwear fabrics can range from 15D (wispy) to 450D (burly). Aim for midweight (70D, often found in 3-layer designs) or higher if you like to climb, scramble or bushwhack off-trail. Sticking to trails? Save ounces by choosing a lightweight design.
Appearance: How do I look? Rainwear designed for the trail aims for low weight, easy packability and pocket positioning that won't interfere with backpack straps or a climbing harness. Rainwear for travel or around-town use is styled with a fuller cut, more pockets and less fussiness over weight.
Price: Why such disparity? High-end rainwear usually features a waterproof/breathable laminate, meticulous seam-taping and exceptional detailing, right down to tiny protective awnings over zipper heads. Lower-cost rainwear is cut looser and often uses waterproof/breathable coatings (generally less breathable than laminates). Still, coated rainwear is quite adequate for moderate activities, and it's light and easy to pack.
Tip: Use your past experiences to help you shop. Are you seeking something more breathable? More durable? Lighter? Something exactly the same? Consider the typical intensity level of your activities and your personal metabolism, too.
Types of Rainwear
Waterproof/Breathable (WP/BR) Rainwear
Recommended users for rainwear using laminates:
- Frequent, year-round or high-elevation backpackers.
- Mountaineers.
- Trail runners.
- Cyclists.
- Paddlers.
- Adventure travelers.
- Backcountry skiers/snowshoers.
Recommended users for rainwear using fabric coatings:
- Summer-season backpackers and day hikers.
- Travelers.
- Birders.
- Anglers.
- Fitness walkers.
Laminate vs. Coatings
A nutshell comparison of waterproof/breathable technologies.
Laminate | Coating | |
Think of it as: | Wallpaper glued to a wall | Paint spread on a wall |
Made from: | Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), polyurethane (PU) or polyester membrane |
Many formulations of polyurethane (PU) |
Popular brands: | Gore-Tex; eVent; Dry.Q | HyVent |
Waterproof performance: | Even | Even |
Breathability: | Better | --- |
Durability: | Better | --- |
Weight: | Varies | Varies |
Price: | --- | Better |
- Keeps active people more comfortable than traditional rainwear.
- One jacket can suit many activities.
- No universally accepted standard for breathability exists, so breathability performance is hard for a consumer to measure; breathability can vary widely from garment to garment, brand to brand.
- Costlier than other rainwear types.
Water-resistant/Breathable Rainwear
Recommended users:
- Backpackers who value breathability and can tolerate dampness.
- Climbers who value stretchiness and can tolerate dampness.
- Day hikers expecting a light drizzle at the most.
- Backcountry skiers/snowshoers.
- Alpine skiers in spring conditions.
- Cyclists.
- Trail runners/fitness walkers.
- Excellent breathability.
- Sometimes lighter than WP/BR shells.
- Usually less expensive than WP/BR shells.
- Some include no hoods; most offer no sealed seams.
- Modest to minimal insulation value.
- If rain becomes steady or hard, fabric can become saturated.
Soft Shell or Hybrid Rainwear
- Enhanced stretch.
- Keeps wearers dry in a downpour.
- No gain in breathability usually associated with soft-shell fabrics.
Waterproof/Nonbreathable Rainwear
- Inexpensive.
- Often stiff; can feel hot or clammy if temperatures rise or your activity level increases.
Rainwear Construction (Layers)
Laminates and coatings are relatively delicate, and abrasion can create tiny leakage channels. Thus WP/BR jackets usey some type of skin-facing inner layer for protection and are described as 2-layer, 3-layer or even 2.5-layer designs. Here is a brief primer:
2-Layer: The Most Affordable
These comparatively basic garments have a membrane or coating applied to the face fabric to form 1 layer. The second layer is often a loose-hanging liner, usually mesh, that is stitched into the interior of the jacket. This suits many people, though some find the liner a bit too loose and bulky-feeling. The liner is needed to protect the laminate or coating from abrasion. Two-layer jackets are a touch heavier and less breathable than other designs, and they are primarily intended for day trips or urban activities.
2.5-Layer: The Lightest Weight
These use a low-weight face fabric (first layer), a polyurethane-based WP/BR laminate or coating (second layer) and a bare-minimum protective inner layer (more like a sheen than an actual layer, which is why it is considered a half-layer). These garments, typically 16 ounces or less, are intended for ultralight wilderness travel and weight- and space-restricted travelers. Two top-selling examples: the Marmot Precip and REI Ultra Light Jacket. Backcountry travelers who favor more breathable soft shells as their principal outerwear often toss a 2.5-layer jacket into their packs just in case a deluge hits. If abrasion-resistance is not one of your key concerns, 2.5-layer garments (particularly those with laminates) deliver high performance for a moderate price.
3-Layer: The Most Durable
Jackets in this category offer rugged yet low-weight WP/BR protection. No coatings are used here, just laminates, with a membrane tightly sandwiched between the face fabric and a body-facing liner. Jackets in the category offer a sleek, athletic fit and face fabrics that can handle less-than-gentle treatment. This makes them well-suited for serious climbers and backpackers. Products in this category aspire to high breathability, high durability and relatively low weight, albeit at a somewhat higher cost.
Rainwear Details
Little things can make a difference in your jacket or parka. Some to watch for:
Seam taping: Seam tape seals puncture holes created when sewing needles stitch together fabric panels. Virtually all top-brand WP/BR garments offer factory-taped seams. A few high-end manufacturers use narrow seam tape, which saves a few grams. Some skiwear items offer "critical" seam taping. This means only seams in high rain exposure areas are taped; side seams, for example, may be omitted in an effort to keep costs down.
Weight: Rainwear designed for rugged use tends to weigh more; fewer conveniences (pockets, zippers, wrist adjustments) result in lower weight. Low weight vs. convenience—it's the eternal outdoor explorer's conundrum. For casual ramblers, it may be wise to aim light and resist the temptation to over-fortify yourself when a lightweight, 2.5-layer Marmot Precip (13 oz., men's medium) or REI Ultra Light (16 oz.) will do.
Fit: Be aware that many technical jackets ("technical" is typically a code word for higher-cost, higher-performing gear) feature a trim athletic cut. They look sharp on a corresponding body type, but may feel snug to some people and could make layering a challenge.
Hoods: Some are extra roomy to accommodate a climbing helmet. Such hoods can appear enormous on a helmet-free noggin, so be aware that it may require some adjusting to keep it from flopping in your face. For a sleeker appearance, look for a detachable or hideaway hood. Hoods with stiffened brims offer a nice rain awning that keep drips out of your face.
Vents: Nothing hastens the evaporation of sweat as well as direct air exposure. A jacket's biggest vent is its front zipper; some are 2-way, meaning you can unzip them from the bottom—a handy venting option. Some chest pockets or hand pockets double as core vents, which is another plus.
Armpit zippers: Minimalists will complain that they add weight (and they're right), but "pit zips" are a splendid air-circulation feature. Jackets that offer such an extra may also provide wrist adjustments that can be tightened or loosened to regulate airflow on your arms.
Articulated tailoring: Articulated sleeves, gusseted underarms and so-called "angel-wing" construction allow sleeves to bend naturally without causing cuffs to ride up your forearm. Also, when you raise your arms overhead, your lower torso remains covered. Very helpful.
Linings: Those aiming to save space and weight should choose a 3- or 2.5-layer design (described above).
Chin guards: Some jackets offer soft material at the top of the front zipper channel so nothing but fleecy goodness touches your chin when the jacket is zipped up. It's a nice extra.
Storm flap: Front zippers sometimes come with a draft flap. It stops wind from slipping through the teeth of the zipper, but adds a hint of weight to the garment.
Pockets: Fewer are found on technical jackets than on urban-minded designs. Designers shrewdly position them to avoid conflict with backpack straps and hipbelts or a climbing harness. Options include music pockets (with headphone ports), inner mesh pockets for storing climbing skins or keeping water bottles from freezing, and zippered security pocket for IDs.
Back length: REI.com includes this spec—the distance between the between the base of a garment's collar and the bottom of its hem. This measurement can help you envision how a rain jacket will fit. Most rainwear is jacket-length, with the hem resting just below the hips. Some are parka-length designs, which cover a wearer's backside.
Drawcords, snow skirts: Drawcords in a jacket's hem allow you to snug the fit to avoid whipping winds. Snow skirts, usually found only in winter parkas, accomplish the same task at waist level.
Noise: Some jacket fabrics create a swishing sound during arm swings. Nylon is usually a little more audible than polyester. Soft shells earn high marks here; they are typically much quieter than nylon or polyester hard shells.
Soft Shells vs. WP/BR Fabrics
Soft shells rate a mention as an outerwear option for highly aerobic activities. Some adventurers even prefer them over traditional outerwear.
Two types of soft shells (not always easy to tell apart) are available:
Traditional soft shells: These offer a water-resistant, tightly woven fabric distinguished by excellent stretch and breathability.
- Pros: A good choice for highly aerobic activity (backpacking, Nordic skiing, snowshoeing, trail running, climbing) where flexibility and breathability are prized; capable of withstanding lighter showers.
- Cons: If a soaking downpour hits, the fabric will likely become saturated at some point and you will feel wet.
Soft shells with a WP/BR membrane: These offer more stretch than a WP/BR garment, but with a reduced level of breathability (though one usually comparable with higher-performing WP/BR hard shells).
- Pros: Good for the same activities mentioned above, particularly climbing in wetter environments (where the extra stretch coupled with better weather protection pays off).
- Cons: When the weather clears, it will not be as breathable as a membrane-free soft shell.
Tip: Most soft shell users carry a no-frills "hard shell" for hard rain, heavy wind or a touch of extra warmth. A hard-shell/soft-shell combo adds up to some extra ounces, but it could offer you a just-right mix of protection.
Guidance for Choosing
What If:
Breathability matters most? Consider...
- 3-layer laminate—costlier, yes, but if you push your intensity threshold, the payoff in comfort is easily worth the price. Top performing laminates include eVent and Gore-Tex Pro Shell.
- Soft shell (without a WP/BR membrane)—these lead the breathability parade, but if a serious cloudburst hits, you'll yearn for a WP/BR jacket.
Waterproofness matter most?
- Any garment—2-layer, 2.5-layer or 3-layer—classified as waterproof will serve your needs. Your activity level will determine your final choice, with 3-layer designs targeted at the most active wearers. Some rain jackets are promoted as providing a waterproof rating of 40 to 45 psi (water pressure per square inch). Wind-driven rain, meanwhile, exerts a force of roughly 2 psi.
Warmth matters most?
- Don't count on rain shells to provide much thermal insulation. Even soft shells are marginal insulators. Look for insulated outerwear instead.
Weight matters most?
- 2.5-layer garments with a WP/BR laminate or coating are the top choice, with some options weighing in around 8 ounces.
Durability matters most?
- In the WP/BR category, 3-layer laminates are best for rugged use (and Gore-Tex's long record of durability shines here).
- All soft shells—their tightly woven face fabrics are abrasion-ready.
Flexibility/maneuverability matters most?
- Soft shells—the ability to stretch is one of their key attributes; any model that claims "4-way stretch" is especially stretchy.
- Some hard-shell garments feature stretch panels to boost flexibility.
Cost matters most?
- Coated/nonbreathable rainwear will keep you dry at an economical cost; just avoid much activity. Soft shells, 2-layer and 2.5-layer WP/BR garments are often moderately priced.
Convenience and comfort matter most?
- 2-layer jackets offer the most relaxed, roomy fits, plus have a relative abundance of pockets.
Versatility matters most?
- If you want a single do-it-all rain jacket, consider a 3-layer WP/BR laminate with a high-denier fabric that can withstand abrasion.

text: Physics Majors Tammy Dencker and Philip Javernick Win Travel Awards Physics majors Tammy Dencker and Philip Javernick have both received travel awards to present their research at the 2011 Annual Seismological Society of America meeting (Memphis, TN) and 2011 Annual American Physical Society March meeting (Dallas, TX), respectively. Tammy's talk is titled "Three dimensional wave gradiometry". Three dimensional wave gradiometery refers to an analysis method in which the direction, speed, and geometrical spreading of waves can be estimated by analyzing the spatial gradients of the wave as they pass by the array. Tammy's research involves constructing a 3-D phased array of microphones to record the passage of sound waves as it traverses the array. The research work carried out is an extension of Dr. Poppeliers' work on two dimensional seismic wave gradiometry to three dimensions. Philip's talk is titled "Synchronization effects in chaotic oscillators with spatially dependent frequency mismatch". His research involves the investigation of spatiotemporal chaos, a phenomena in which the fluctuations in space play a significant role on the chaotic dynamics. Specifically, Philip is investigating the phenomena of synchronization for two coupled chaotic oscillators with a frequency mismatch which is explicitly spatially dependent. Congratulations to Tammy and Philip!

Singing theremin doll is a little creepy
The theremin may well be our favorite musical instrument here at Crave. We know that's certainly the case with Tim Moynihan, anyway. So in honor of him and his robot musicians, today we offer this rather bizarre variation called the "Matryomin," named after the Russian Matryoska dolls by Japanese "master thereminist" Masami Takeuchi. Gizmowatch says the instrument made by Mandarin Electron--which is basically a theremin stuffed inside one of the dolls--yields "both electric and eclectic sounds" and lends the impression that the wooden toy is "singing to the touch of the player.&… Read more

Linux Serial Consoles for Servers and Clusters
Managing large numbers of Linux and UNIX systems takes a lot of organization, automation and careful use of technology. A significant chunk of one's time as a system administrator is spent building infrastructure to make managing those systems easier. Doing so improves flexibility, recoverability and reduces downtime. All of this hopefully results in less stress and longer vacations. This article discusses one of those simple technologies that helps accomplish all of the above, serial consoles.
Serial consoles always have been a standard feature of enterprise UNIX hardware. Modern high-density server and cluster configurations sometimes can squeeze more than 50 servers in a 19" rack, so having monitors and keyboards for each one is unthinkable. Although KVM (keyboard/video/mouse) switches can connect many servers to a small number of monitors and keyboards, they are expensive and even more so with remote access features. Serial consoles allow you to take racks or shelves of servers and have all their consoles available all the time, from anywhere.
The console is a simple I/O device, initialized early in the kernel boot process to convey informational messages as the system comes up. Once the operating system starts running startup scripts, the console can be used to recover an ailing system or to get input from the system administrator interactively, like Red Hat's Kudzu does. One compelling feature of serial consoles is never having to drive in to work because a system is hung up at reboot asking for input for fsck. After the system is up completely, the console usually becomes a login terminal, sometimes a graphical one. The console also can be used as a last resort method of reporting problems inside the kernel. Under these panic conditions it is not possible always to write to log files or network log servers, so messages are reported to the console. For this reason and many more, consoles on servers should be a simple device, and a serial port is the simplest device included on standard system configurations. For those last-minute panic messages, one could add a console device that supports buffering and logging, so you never miss a moment of the excitement.
What we are talking about here is booting up a system without using an attached keyboard, mouse or video monitor. Some motherboards may complain without a directly attached keyboard, but this requirement usually can be changed in the BIOS configuration. In fact, with the recent popularity of USB keyboards, most BIOS versions do not care about missing keyboards. If you are using a system that was designed to be a server, you may be even more fortunate. Several vendors have started adding extra functionality to their BIOS versions to better support serial consoles from power-on. These features sometimes include power-on system test (POST) output and BIOS configuration access over the serial port. Depending on your needs, you can select your hardware accordingly by checking the vendor specifications. Even without BIOS support, you still can use serial consoles quite effectively on almost any PC system.
This is not a perfect solution, though, and your average PC hardware does not provide all of the features available in typical enterprise-class UNIX hardware. PC BIOS versions do not have the concept of a boot monitor (see the "What Is a Boot Monitor?" sidebar), nor can you perform a hardware halt of the OS as you can in enterprise UNIX hardware. For many applications this is okay, but when more functionality is needed add-on hardware options are available, and I discuss them later.
What Is a Boot Monitor?
Classic UNIX hardware (Sun, HP, SGI and so on) usually has a feature called a boot monitor. Think of it as a tiny operating system built into Flash memory on the motherboard of a server or workstation. Sometimes called a boot console or prom console, they function as a PC BIOS and a bootloader in one. They are responsible for understanding all manner of boot devices and getting the kernel image into RAM and running. Most boot monitors can boot from the network for diskless operation or recovery from a failed boot device. One key feature of boot monitors is they stand between the console and the kernel, so it often is possible to suspend or halt the running OS and drop to the boot monitor with a magic keystroke. Then, even better, the OS resumes where it left off. This allows you to diagnose hardware problems or forcibly reboot the system even if the kernel has died. In a PC system, only a skeletal set of hardware support exists in the BIOS, and the rest must be provided by small chunks of code provided in Flash memory on the hardware itself.
Most PC hardware BIOS versions can be configured only with a directly attached keyboard and video monitor. Luckily most come with usable default settings, so this is not normally an issue. If it is, you may need to have the system initially configured with direct attached video and keyboard and then switch to serial console. In my experience, I have rarely needed to do this; it needs to be done only once during initial hardware setup.
Very helpful
Even though it was written 3 years ago, still want to say thank you for this helpful article.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A Virginia Senate committee has rewritten Gov. Bob McDonnell's transportation funding reform bill.
The proposal would restore and increase the gasoline tax, add a 1 percent fuel sales tax and allow localities to add another 1 percent tax to fuel.
Changes to the House-passed legislation came in a Senate Finance Committee meeting Tuesday. The meeting was briefly held up by a Republican senator's demand that the bill's sponsor, Republican House Speaker Bill Howell, appear and explain it.
Republican Sen. Frank Wagner, however, offered his substitute to the Senate panel, which advanced it on a 9-6 vote.
The bill will face a floor vote later this week, then return to the House where it will likely be rejected. That will set up negotiations for a small committee of delegates and senators.

text: The growing unrest in Syria has drawn copious international attention recently. Earlier this week, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay, in a speech to the UN General Assembly, called for the UN Security Council to refer the situation in Syria to the International Criminal Court (ICC). Pillay urged an investigation of Syrian government and military officials for possible crimes against humanity. The UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) claimed earlier in February that the past 11 months of violence in Syria have led to the deaths of hundreds of children. In January, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon demanded [JURIST reports] that al-Assad end violence against Syrian civilians. The UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights reports that more than 5,000 people have died since anti-government protests began last March.

The apartments have views of the Nashua River, courtyard gardens, or the nearby historic homes.
The Anwelt apartments have been designed specifically for residents age 55 and up.

Passion and Humdrum
The Letters of Alfred Lord Tennyson: Volume II, 18511870
Tennyson: The Muses' Tug-of-War
Tennyson was in some ways the most professional poet in English. Even as a small boy he knew what he intended to make of his life, and aside from an awkward step or two when his family tried to divert him into the Church, he never wandered off the path he saw stretching straight before him. He was prodigally endowed with talents, and critics often point out that he had a better natural ear for rhythm and sheer splendor of sound than any other English poet; because he knew his future so early, he quickly learned to practice conservation of his gifts, refusing to squander them elsewhere.
In Keats and Byron we often sense a spillover from their poetry into their correspondence, but Tennyson reserved his talents for poetry rather than the post. Almost as if to balance the lyricism of his poems, his letters are plain and workmanlike, indicating considerable mastery of style but little passion, nearly the equivalent of what Hopkins called the "Parnassian" in his poetry.
The tendency to confine his correspondence to necessary information increased as he grew older. The first volume of his Letters opens with a rhapsodic analysis by the twelve-year-old Alfred of the beauty of "Sampson Agonistes"; by the time of the first letter in the present volume, written thirty years later, his spelling has improved but not his subject matter, for he is writing to his publisher about a tailor's bill and printers' corrections to a poem. The second letter, to his wife, is entirely about a place to live: "The Twickenham house is a very good one with lots of room. The only objection I have to it is its nearness to London: which is rather a horror to me. I will tell thee all about it tomorrow and other things."
There were plenty of reasons for Tennyson's growing impersonality, both in correspondence and in person. He had always been disinclined to speak or write directly about his inner emotions, instead turning them to symbolic use in his poetry. Rather than talk gloomily of his loneliness and perhaps of his sexual frustration as a young man, he objectified them in poems like "Mariana," and he found "The Lady of Shalott" and "The Palace of Art" more acceptable ways of dealing with doubts about the place of poetry in the modern world than personal discussion with the friends who raised the problem.
The brief, almost unbelievable happiness he knew with Arthur Hallam and the Apostles in Cambridge ended after a little more than three years when he had to return to his dying father and the Gothic blackness of life in Somersby Rectory. When Hallam died two years later, Tennyson pulled back the tentacles with which he had begun to feel out a life of affection and trust. For seventeen years of comparative poverty he drifted unannounced in and out of his friends' lives, disappearing for long periods into hydropathic establishments to battle alcohol and the fear of madness. He …

Brief Summary | The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754) compared with glimepiride in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with inadequate control despite treatment with metformin. |
Detailed Description | Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is well recognized as a major public health problem that presents patients with a significant risk of complications including heart disease, retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy. Various classes of orally administered antihyperglycemic agents have been developed for the treatment of diabetes and although individual agents may be highly effective for some patients, it is still difficult to maintain optimal glycemic control in most patients, thereby resulting in high rates of morbidity and mortality in the diabetic population. This is a randomized, double-blind, active comparator-controlled, 3-arm, parallel-group, multicenter study to demonstrate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of canagliflozin compared with a sulfonylurea (glimepiride) in patients with T2DM, 18 to 80 years of age, inclusive, who are not optimally controlled on metformin monotherapy. The primary study hypothesis is that the study drug will be non-inferior to glimepiride as assessed by the change in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline. The patients will receive capsules taken by mouth of canagliflozin (either 100 or 300 mg), or glimepiride with a starting dosage of 1 mg, which will be increased to a maximum dose of 6 or 8 mg once daily for a total duration of 104 weeks. |
