She and the staff were very helpful and so patient with me. I'm a cat person, and I've never owned a dog before, so I had lots of questions. I'm glad we come to Atwood. =)

Call or Text Jessica at 620-947-1951
I am a first generation college grad. I graduated from Azusa Pacific University in 2009 with a BA in Communication Studies. Emphasis in interpersonal and organizational communication. During college I was a resident advisor and had a handful of jobs on campus. My under-grad experience was phenomenal!
I am the oldest of three. My younger brothers Edgar, 21 and Jacob, 7 are my favorite people in the world. My parents are Mexican and came to America as immigrants 26 years ago. They are now U.S. citizens. I'm SO proud of them.
I really enjoy a good book, music, art, scrapbooking. I like to stay as physically active as I can so I jog, bike, or swim and explore the great outdoors as often as possible. However I can also be a bit of a home body. I like to stay in, cook a great meal and watch a movie. Romantic comedies are my favorite. I love meeting new people and getting to know their stories as well as developing new friendships. Staying connected with my friends and family back home is very important to me. They made me who I am today.
Tabor is the kind of place where you can really invest in people. In the short amount of time that I have been here I can see that Tabor is really about the students. I like being apart of a place that serves others in order to lead them.

``The Devil In the White City by Eric Larson. It juxtaposes the lives of architect Daniel Burnham and serial killer H.H. Holmes set in 1893 Chicago. Larson meticulously researched the era. The magic of the World's Fair and the horror of premeditated murder proves again that truth is stranger than any fictional mystery I could write.''

The Champion 100 is my favorite solid-state guitar amp ever. It can create many different tones and flavors and still get that warm sweet tone of a tube amp.
For the price I paid for this item, it is also the best value amp I have ever bought.
jaclop099 owns this item
Got this Champion 100 amp because I couldn't get tube amps to give a sweet tone, or have a decent tone stack irregardless of them being tube. This amp has great models and has a great clean channel. Chorus effect is nice and the distortions are very usable. I'm very happy with it even though its price might make some think it shouldn't sound so good: it in fact does. Fender has done a great job on bringing us this gem of an amp. Effect loop and footswitch are cool features and the amp takes pedals very well. It is a loud 100 watts, and the speaker's rock. Overall, having played the multitude of usual suspect amps the Fender Champion 100 gets 5 stars. I can't wait for the head and 4x12 cabinet to be offered.

Exiles from Paradise: Zelda and Scott Fitzgerald
Dear Scott/Dear Max: the Fitzgerald-Perkins Correspondence
Living Well Is the Best Revenge
The Golden Moment: The Novels of F. Scott Fitzgerald
Crazy Sundays: F. Scott Fitzgerald in Hollywood
F. Scott Fitzgerald in His Own Time, a Miscellany
"Where the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered": the swarms of books about F. Scott Fitzgerald that have been darkening the sky since his death just over thirty years ago are so striking that it has become trite even to remark upon them. More curious than the simple numbers involved is that so many of them seem to be groping for a format, and overlapping or cannibalizing one another for lack of it. Professor Mizener's The Far Side of Paradise (1951, revised 1965) was a straightforward literary biography which focused accurately, and with understanding and appreciation, on Fitzgerald's actual literary accomplishments. But Andrew Turnbull's redoing of the biography (1962), in addition to being worse written, duplicated an enormous amount of the same material and showed much less interest in Fitzgerald's fiction than in his "personality." It made only minimal reference to its predecessor; and, while elaborately documented, could easily, if reduced to its own ingredients, have been cut to the size of a modest reminiscence and portrait.
Most of the books under review stand in a similar ghostly relation to their predecessors. Miss Mayfield's Exiles from Paradise breathes down the neck of Miss Milford's recent biography of Zelda. Mr. Latham's Crazy Sundays, though it goes well beyond Sheilah Graham's Beloved Infidel, treads repeatedly in its predecessor's footprints, eking itself out with paraphrases from Fitzgerald's own fiction.
Meanwhile, the collection of Fitzgerald's correspondence with Maxwell Perkins, assembled by Messrs. Kuehl and Bryer, includes a preponderance of letters already reproduced in Mr. Turnbull's edition of the correspondence (1963). Mr. Stern's book on four of the novels had the bad luck to appear after Mr. Sklar's The Last Laocoon (1967); Stern is frank in admitting the overlap (his book, he says darkly, will "parallel Sklar's by talking about the national rather than the literary development of Fitzgerald's talent"), but he evidently didn't feel that was a reason to cut down his 462 pages.
Books are being made about Fitzgerald in the very wheel ruts of previous books; one finds the same anecdotes, the same statistics, the same quotations being used over and over again to make identical points. (My favorite statistic is the estate left by Fitzgerald's grandfather McQuillan: it amounted to $266,289.49—and those forlorn forty-nine cents, dragged through volume after volume, take on the look of a tattered flag.) It is easy to ridicule the phenomenon, and indeed most of the books don't deserve better. But what they are all trying to get at, though elusive, could be genuine and important.
The most depressing of the current set of Fitzgerald studies is Sara Mayfield's re-biography of the two Fitzgeralds. Miss Mayfield's qualifications are her childhood acquaintance with Zelda and intermittent, not-very-friendly contact with both Fitzgeralds during the Twenties and Thirties. Her writing taps a vein of pure, cloying cliché, deviating frequently into slur and innuendo. She …

Food Pantry Essentials Real Simple's Allie Lewis Clapp Reveals 10 Ingredients to Save You Hours in the Kitchen by Susannah Chen 5/02/12 2 Reactions 169 Shares Print 157 2 10 0 0 You may vow to skip takeout in favor of cooking every weeknight dinner, but let's face it: regardless of how much you like to cook, if you've got a busy schedule, you probably don't want to spend hours in the kitchen every night. The secret? According to Allie Lewis Clapp, food director of Real Simple magazine and editor of the new book Real Simple: Easy, Delicious Home Cooking, the secret sauce lies in having an arsenal of go-to ingredients. "There are a lot of items we go to again and again for Real Simple," she says. "We stock our kitchens with things to make our lives easier." See what Allie's top 10 list includes, when you keep reading. Photos: Lauren Hendrickson, Real Simple, and Katie Sweeney Frozen Shrimp What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Frozen shrimp is ideal because "you can get big bags of it, keep it in the freezer, and take out as much as you need," Allie says. It also defrosts quickly: simply put your shrimp in a plastic bag, place the bag in a bowl of room-temperature water, and they'll be defrosted in 15 minutes. Plus, they're fairly nutrient-dense. Source: Flickr User Gastev 1 / 10 Pesto What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "I love pesto," says Allie, "because it can be used in so many ways. You can stir it into vegetables, whisk it into salad dressings, or spoon pesto over chicken breast." We love it spread atop a fillet of white fish. Photo: Lauren Hendrickson 2 / 10 Apricot Jam What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "Use it in cooking," Allie suggests. "Throw it on a chicken breast before broiling, or with pork chops after they've been cooked." It also makes for a nice glaze atop a fruit galette. Source: Flickr User La Catholique 3 / 10 Roasted Chicken What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A roasted or rotisserie chicken can be used endlessly, whether in soups, as a base for salads, to throw into quesadillas, or over brown rice. "I often just roast a couple of chickens on the weekends; I'll roast two on a Sunday night, eat one that night, and use the other to take me through [leftovers for] the rest of the week," Allie explains. That's (literally) hitting two birds with one stone! Photo: Lauren Hendrickson 4 / 10 Lentils and Canned Beans What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "Lentils, white beans, black beans, kidney beans, and chickpeas are all so easy to toss into salads," says the author. "Or, make a bean salad in and of itself." We love lentil and potato salad. Photo: Camilla Salem 6 / 10 Pizza Dough What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "We have a lot of pizzas and flatbreads in the book," Allie says. Her advice? Keep dough in your freezer all the time, as it goes beyond pizza. "You can make calzones, fried dough balls, pizzettes, breadsticks, focaccia, rolls. I've even heard that you can make sticky buns from pizza dough — although I haven't tried that yet!" Source: Flickr User I'm George 6 / 10 Bagged Baby Spinach What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "Because you're not washing it, bagged baby spinach is so easy to use," Allie points out. "It wilts easily; it's packed with nutrition; you don't have to chop, peel, or cut anything." Stir it into risotto or pasta for a greener plate. Source: Flickr User mahr 7 / 10 Couscous What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "Couscous as a side dish: there's nothing faster to cook," she says. Take it off the burner, let it rest, and in mere minutes the grain is done. Clapp recommends serving it with butter. Source: Flickr User Paul Keller 8 / 10 Quinoa What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "I love quinoa because it cooks in the same amount of time as white rice, but it's so healthy for you," Allie explains. "I cook a big batch of quinoa every week and make my way through it during the week. I'll eat it plain or with butter on the first night, then I bring couscous with some beans for lunch. I'll stir it into a lettuce leaf salad, if I feel it's not going to be quite enough for lunch. Later in the week, I'll chop up leftover roasted vegetables to add to quinoa, and that'll be lunch or dinner." She also recommends serving it warm with dried fruit and nuts for breakfast, in the same style as oatmeal. Photo: Katie Sweeney 9 / 10 Dulce de Leche What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "We have a great recipe that uses dulce de leche in the new book," Allie says. "It's just four things: coconut, cream, dulce de leche, and salt." The multitasking dessert sauce also works wonders atop ice cream and cookies.

The aim of this project is to create a free (open source, OS independent) remake of the classic SSI game Imperialism. While the spirit and many concepts of the original should be preserved, it should not become a pure copy but advance the concept in a sense that modern elements of strategic games are included, e.g. of the Civilization series. The game is written in Java using Swing for the user interface. The philosophy is to keep it as simple as possible, use standard/well tested libraries wherever possible and to demand clean, understandable code.
ZedLog is a robust cross-platform input logging tool (A.K.A., a key logger). It is based on a flexible data logging system which makes it easy to get the required data. It features logging of all keyboard and mouse events, a replay simulation tool, logging to a file, and hiding in the background.

A movie is a particularly immersive experience; most meals are not. I have likened a multi-course tasting menu to an evening of theatre. And I enjoy both at about the same frequency. But my chicken salad today was tasty & brief in a way that was more like listening to a piece of music. I listen to music more than three times a day.

The daily face time when sitting down to dinner is at least as important to me as the nutritional sustenance. Obviously, I am biased towards living with others. If I lived alone, attitude toward meals would be very different. As it is, a week of eating alone leaves me discombobulated. > > From a strictly nutritional perspective, I find the project fascinating. He describes an incredibly short feedback loop, in terms of how his body responds to intake. That's really cool. Understanding, and being able to predictably control, a complex system is satisfying. I couldn't do it, but I'm really glad somebody is, and is sharing his results. > _______________________________________________ > Discuss mailing list > Discuss at kwartzlab.ca > http://kwartzlab.ca/mailman/listinfo/discuss_kwartzlab.ca > > _______________________________________________ > Discuss mailing list > Discuss at kwartzlab.ca > http://kwartzlab.ca/mailman/listinfo/discuss_kwartzlab.ca

Not sure this was that great. Lots of competitive products at box hardware stores, they could be better. PW got detergent out of concrete/rinsed clean. Concrete more white than ever, but didn't seem like the cleaner was lifting dirt out vs. the PW really doing the work.Good mix rate; mixed too much for the amount I sprayed out through the PW, mix less then you think you'll use, then mix more if necessary. I chose b/c of the Briggs & Stratton affliation, product shouldn't tear up their PW, hopefully cheap insurance for PW unit.

I purchased this in an attempt to remove a gasoline stain from my asphalt driveway. I used it w/ my 3000 PSI washer. This product didn't touch the stain. Use this rating w/ discretion as I haven't yet tried it on concrete or brick.

Anthology is crafted for elegance and complexity, combining Bordeaux varieties from some of Napa Valley's finest vineyards. We tasted 20 blends before selecting the final blend for the 1998 Anthology. The 1998 bottling is marked by bright fruit aromas of plum, cherry and cassis and bold flavors of marinated cherry, ripe plum with mocha nuances. This is a silky medium-to-full bodied wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared for additional complexity.
Conn Creek was founded in 1973 and immediately established itself as one of Napa Valley's premier Cabernet houses with the release of its 1974 Eisele Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon. The winery name comes from its location, next to Conn Creek near the Rutherford Crossroad that connects the Silverado Trail with Highway 29. Conn Creek specializes in limited production Bordeaux varietal wines exclusively from Napa Valley's best vineyards. Present production remains at fewer than 6500 case per year.
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard...Read More About Napa Valley
Bordeaux Blends The Fab Five With so much history under its belt, it's no wonder that Bordeaux has figured out the recipe to produce amazing wines.

I think that any fundamental oriented stock investor should care about tracking what top institutions have been buying or selling in the past quarters. Exactly 45 days after the end of each quarter every hedge fund must fill the 13F form where each fund details its long portfolio holdings. I point several reasons to track these holdings:
First of all, top hedge funds have more resources than individual investors to analyze fundamentals. These institutions have a team of analysts that spend the whole day calling companies, doing surveys and reading every fundamental analysis they can find from each company they focus on researching. In other words, hedge funds in general have way much more resources and information than the average individual investor to analyze fundamentals. So, if I focus on the best picks from the best managers, I can end gettin a list of stocks that I assume that have been properly analyzed by a whole team of expert fundamental analysts that have more time and resources than me. There are clear examples on the type of research these funds are able to pursue. For example, in the First Quarter letter to investors top hedge fund manager Daniel Loeb explained his thesis on why he liked Portuguese bonds. In that letter he mentioned that the fund sent to Portugal a whole team of analysts to interview Portugal government representatives and several top consultants. I wonder if any individual investor has the ability to spend months in Portugal analyzing bonds. Third Point letter to investors was released in the web in May. Those bonds went up almost 25% after the release and every individual investor had the opportunity to invest at similar prices that Third Point did. Other example comes from the recent letter to investors from Greenlight Capital. In it, David Einhorn explained that in order to short Chipotle, they have interviewed lots of customers, did in-store research and analyzed every fundamental aspect about the company. Would you consider this stock to be long knowing in advance that Greenlight top fundamental analyst team considers the company to be a strong short ? Is your fundamental analysis capability better than them ?
Also, I like to track hedge funds holdings because their purchases are not made for just one day or week. Great value managers buy stocks and hold them for months or even years. While they report the portfolios with a delay of 45 days, fundamentals about those selected companies may not have changed from the last day that the manager reported its holdings. Considering that the manager made the purchase with the goal of holding for the long term, 45 days could not be too much in the overall fundamental picture.
I focus on tracking these hedge funds:
- Baupost
- Berkshire Hathway (not a hedge fund)
- Fairhole (Mutual fund)
- Fidelity Contra (Mutual fund)
- Blue Ridge
- Eminence
- Greenlight Capital
- Third Point
- Lone Pine
- Maverick
- Appaloosa
- Tiger
- Passport
- Carl Icahn
- Pershing Square
- Leon Cooperman's Omega Advisors
I use several websites to track hedge fund holdings:
GuruFocus hosts numerous value screeners and research tools, and regularly publishes articles about value investing strategies and ideas. GuruFocus also publishes three newsletters: Monthly Ben Graham Net-Net, Buffett-Munger Best Bargains and Microcap Magic Formula Stocks.
Whalewisdom provides a suit of tools to help track the performance of hedge funds by tracking its 13F fillings. By using Whalewisdom you can compare filer holdings from different periods, build your own portfolio of the top stocks held by your favorite hedge funds and backtest the performance and many other tools both free and premium.
Insider Monkey uses a hybrid evaluation system that exploits insider transactions and other market anomalies to reduce the number of insiders who are worthy enough to monkey. Insider Monkey also provides high quality evidence based articles to inform individual investors about the intricacies of investing
Tickerspy helps investors track their investments and stocks of interest. Registered members can also use tickerspy to save articles, create multiple portfolios, and track the ideas of our top-rated members. Tickerspy also lets members share their investing analysis with the community and respond to one another's ideas as well.

The Fundamental Characterisation for Nanotechnology course provides a justification for materials characterisation, and a framework for considering strategic and tactical issues. It also gives an overview of the most common techniques and methodologies available to determine the nature and composition of nanoparticles (both organic and inorganic), thin films and nanostructures.
The course presents generic descriptions of techniques and methodologies, together with representative case studies. In addition to the course material and online tutorials, the course incorporates interactive team projects, whereby iterative 'proposals' are presented to experts, who then provide feedback and guidance for further development. The course includes a residential weekend in Oxford where students have an opportunity to see the latest characterisation methods at the University of Oxford's Begbroke Science Park.
The Fundamental Characterisation for Nanotechnology online course can be taken alone, with or without academic credit, or as part of the Postgraduate Certificate in Nanotechnology.
Please send me an email about future Fundamental Characterisation for Nanotechnology courses.
Follow @OxfordNano on Twitter.
Materials characterisation is the use of external techniques to probe into the internal structure and properties of a material or object. This course will be of interest to you if you are faced with questions such as:
- What are the attributes of a given material?
- Are the attributes of the material those intended, were promised, or were led to expect?
- Is our chosen materials processing route, or device fabrication route, working as intended, or as it did yesterday?
In answering these questions, the course takes a trouble-shooting approach to nanoparticle characterisation, beginning with the material or object:
- Identifying the information that is required;
- Formulating an approach to obtaining that information;
- Making a rational choice of techniques and methodologies;
- Giving due regard to efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
The course also introduces the key methods and approaches used in materials characterisation for nanotechnology and offers guidance as to when and how each technique is best used.
Programme details
The Fundamental Characterisation for Nanotechnology course begins in April and runs for ten weeks. The course is divided into ten units, each of which is designed to take approximately one week to study:
- An introduction to what is meant by materials characterisation;
- The essential elements of the physical basis for x-ray and electron diffraction;
- Imaging, optical and electron-optical microscopies - imaging at the macroscale to the nanoscale;
- Micro- and nano-analytical techniques;
- Scanning probe techniques - physical principles and generic methodologies;
- Spectroscopies - techniques, with emphasis on surface and film analysis;
- Physical chemical techniques;
- Tactical and practical aspects of materials characterisation;
- A review of problems and further reading;
- An overview of strategic issues - synthesis and summary.
There will also be live online tutorials, normally once each week.
Characterisation Weekend
At the end of the taught part of the course, students attend a weekend in Oxford at the University of Oxford's Begbroke Science Park in association with BegbrokeNano, a well-established focus of characterisation expertise, and one of the UK Technology Strategy Board's Micro and Nanotechnology (MNT) Centres.
During the weekend students are given information on the latest techniques for nanoparticle characterisation and some of the latest pieces of equipment from manufacturers are demonstrated. Explanations of the principles behind the techniques and demonstrations of the equipment allow students to gain an understanding of how best to characterise nanomaterials.
Over the two days, the presentations, discussions and demonstrations focus on characterisation and problem-solving in surface and interface science and technology as well as characterisation of nanoparticles and nanostructures. In particular, the following groups of techniques are considered:
- Surface specific electron spectroscopic (XPS) and spectrometric (SIMS) techniques;
- Electron-optical analytical and imaging (EPMA/WDS, SEM/EDS, TEM/EDS, HRTEM) techniques;
- Photon spectroscopic (IR and Raman probes) and thin-film profilometry techniques;
- Scanning probe (AFM in various operational modes) and stylus (Dektak) techniques;
- Light scattering for particle characterisation (particle analysis, dynamic light scattering, centrifugal sedimentation, laser diffraction).
What to expect
Overall the course has been designed so that students can study it in the way that works for them. However you want to study, we are aware that this is easiest to do if you are given some idea of how to get the most out of the course. We advise that:
- Most students should expect to spend between 10 and 15 hours each week on independent study in addition to the timetabled tutorials, including all reading, writing and thinking about the course;
- Each unit should take approximately a week to study. The units will make the most sense if studied in the order in which they are presented but can be studied in any order;
- There are a series of review questions designed to let students know whether they have understood a unit, whilst other activities make them draw their learning together;
- Students should work on the module level activities in parallel with studying the main materials.
A small sample of the Fundamental Characterisation for Nanotechnology course is available through our virtual learning environment.
- The course is taken part-time so students can complete it whilst continuing to work full-time;
- The online weeks of the course can be completed from anywhere in the world;
- An induction course site helps to ease students into the course and familiarise themselves with the online course environment, with the added benefit of enabling them to introduce themselves to other participants;
- Tutors provide online support and replicate electronically the famed Oxford tutorial system;
- The course has a dedicated tutor, course director and administration team accustomed to supporting students undertaking distance learning courses;
- Students have access to staff at the University of Oxford's Begbroke Science Park and Department of Materials, particularly the Course Director, Dr Christiane Norenberg;
- The residential weekend provides an introduction to the practical elements of nanotechnology and equipment demonstrations;
- The weekend gives students the opportunity to meet one another and tutors face-to-face to enhance learning and group work;
- Throughout the course, students can use the University of Oxford's unrivalled electronic library resources to enable them to complete the assignment tasks.
Dr Christiane Norenberg
Role: Director
Her interests and expertise are in the areas of surface science, growth and characterisation of nanostructures on surfaces, and nanotechnology in general. Christiane also teaches nanoscience and materials science at undergraduate and postgraduate level.
Dr Frank Dillon
Role: Tutor
He joined the Nanomaterials Group in the Department of Materials, Oxford University in July 2008.
The focus of his is to develop the great potential of carbon nanotube-inorganic hybrids and show that new scientific horizons will be opened by material combinations and their synergistic functions, rather than optimization of one particular material. Carbon nanotubes have highly tunable surface areas, aspect ratios and hollow cavities which make them ideal templates for size-controlled inorganic nanoparticles, nanotubes and nanowires respectively. These hybrid materials merge the properties of the components in a way that creates new enhanced properties and increases the robustness of the inorganic nanomaterials. These nanocomposites are expected to have excellent applicability toward various technologies such as catalysis and composites along with energy related areas such as photocatalysis, batteries and supercapacitors.
Dr Neil Young
Role: Tutor
Neil studyed physics at Birmingham University and also obtained a PhD in Nanoscale Physics from Birmingham in 2007. Personal research interests include the atomic-level characterisation of functional nanoparticles, with a particular interest in structure-property studies of catalysts. Neil uses advanced instrumentation such as the Oxford-JEOL 2200MCO aberration-corrected microscope in addition to aberration-corrected in-situ and ETEM facilities around the world to investigate the structure and dynamics of catalyst particles.
In his spare time Neil likes to travel, go scuba diving and work in his garden.
Course aims
The principal objectives of the course are to:
- Provide an overview of methods and techniques available for characterising materials relevant to nanoscale technologies;

WASHINGTON - For the first time, the library of music recorded by outspoken and eclectic performer Frank Zappa is available, digitally.
"It warmed my heart to click on iTunes today and see Frank Zappa's music finally available," says Cerphe Colwell, who played Zappa on the original WHFS, and now on Cerphe's Progressive Show.
Zappa's fusion of rock, jazz, classical, satire, and blues made him largely inaccessible on radio, but his fans bought the 56 albums he released.
After decades, Zappa's family recently reached an acceptable licensing deal to make his music available online.
His lyrics were biting.
"Even songs about the music industry, which brought him here to D.C. in September of 1985, for a battle on Capitol Hill defending freedom of speech," says Cerphe.
"It was all about putting warning labels on records -- the PMRC hearings," recalls Cerphe, who testified with Zappa, Dee Snider and John Denver before the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee.
The Parents Music Resource Center, fronted by Tipper Gore, wife of then-Sen. Al Gore, and Susan Baker, wife of Treasury Secretary James Baker, advocated parental warning labels on records.
In his opening statement, Zappa compared the PMRC plan to treating dandruff with decapitation.
Zappa's best-selling song was Valley Girl, featuring his then 14-year-old daughter, Moon Unit Zappa.
Zappa refused to play the song live, not wanting to be considered a novelty act.
"Most of Frank's music never made it to radio, and it's wonderful his son Dweezil is touring with 'Zappa Plays Zappa,'" says Cerphe.
Zappa died of cancer in 1993, at the age of 52.

Points to Dwell On |
When solder doesn't want to flow, try increasing the dwell time. Some of the components our customers ask us to solder can absorb a lot of heat. And I mean a lot of heat. One particular part that we solder has 16 solder joints, is made completely of metal (not sure what, but it seems like a tinned copper), and nearly every pin sits on an enormous ground plane. Not to mention the holes are by no means oversized to make this any easier.

This gifted performer has been talked about for some time as the rising star of French football and his sublime skills started to rise to the surface in Newcastle's unexpectedly impressive season in the English Premier League.
His magical goals and creative brilliance were combined with a work ethic that made him a potent weapon for Alan Pardew's side in recent months, with the Newcastle manager quick to pour praise on his midfield magician.
"Some of the things Hatem can do with the ball are up there with the very best in the game and he fully deserves the international recognition coming his way," says Pardew of this one-time Lyon and Marseille star. "He is a wonderful talent and all of us at Newcastle appreciate we are fortunate to have him on our team."
