Program/Project Management
A sticky situation found a slick solution when engineers in Oregon decided to move a 3,400-ton, one-piece bridge by sliding it along tracks covered in Teflon and liquid dish soap.
The 87-year-old Sellwood Bridge had to be moved to a new location to serve as a temporary detour while its replacement was being built. The new bridge is scheduled to open in the summer of 2015.
But moving an 1,100-foot-long continuous four-span steel structure with no hinges or expansion joints had engineers at the Oregon Department of Transportation scratching their heads.
The Sellwood Bridge, an 1,100-foot-long continuous steel bridge, required some careful planning and a little help from a common household product to move it down the river.
So they turned to Teflon (and a lot of heavy equipment).
A 'Highly Unusual' Undertaking
The entire 3,400-ton bridge was moved sideways as one entire piece to its new location on Jan. 19, 2013, making it one of the largest bridge parts ever moved. The move was done in a horizontal slide, versus a vertical pick-and-move.
Although the move only took 14 hours, the bridge was closed for a week to install road connections and complete an in-depth inspection.
"While translation of shorter bridges is quite common, it is highly unusual to translate a multi-span bridge of this length in one piece," Ed Wortman, Multnomah County engineer, explained on the project's website.
"Considering the rarity of four-span bridges, the Sellwood move could be the first time such an operation has been performed for a structure of this type. Similar comparisons have been difficult to find," said Wortman.
The 14-hour bridge move can be watched in this 38-second time lapse video.
The east end of the bridge was moved north about 33 feet, and the west end was moved north about 66 feet, so the entire bridge had to travel along a curved path.
At its new location, the bridge is being supported on five temporary piers, or "bents," that were installed at the same spacings as the existing concrete piers and support the structure at its 10 main bearing points. Steel "translation beams" were used to support the truss at all 10 bearing points during the move.
A Teflon-Tough Move
The truss was lifted off the concrete piers, then slid along the translation beams to the temporary steel bents with the help of hydraulic lifts.
First, U-shaped track beams were placed on top of the translations beams. Teflon pads were glued to the track beams and doused with liquid dish soap to make a slippery surface, Equipment World reported. Ski-shaped, 14-foot-long steel skid beams slid on the Teflon pads in the track beams.
Forty vertically oriented hydraulic jacks, each with 150-ton capacity, lifted the truss off the concrete piers and lowered it back on to the temporary steel piers. To slide the skid beams and truss along the track beams, 10 horizontally oriented 75-ton capacity hydraulic jacks were used to push on the south side of the skid beams.
The north and south skid beams were tied together to make sure they moved simultaneously. Thanks to the slick Teflon surface, only a small amount of pushing power was necessary. Since the angle of the move required the west end of the truss to be moved twice as far as the east end, the pushing jacks were controlled so that they pushed twice as fast on the west end.
Skid beams were coated in Teflon, enabling hydraulic jacks to easily push the entire Sellwood Bridge to its new location.
Since any excessive twisting or bending could have damaged the truss, an engineering team analyzed the bridge's tolerance limits before the move and periodically checked any movement during the move.
After the move, a team of experienced bridge inspectors inspected the bridge to make sure no damage occurred before reopening the bridge to the public.
Two contractors worked together to pull off the move: Slayden/Sundt Joint Venture, the construction manager and general contractor for the entire bridge replacement project; and Omega Morgan, a subcontractor involved in transporting and handling heavy equipment and structures.

Very Nice!
Laura from New York
I am very pleased with this bread pan. The bread turns out so nicely. I just wish it was a little bit bigger to fit a larger size loaf, but overall it's a great pan.
Easy cooking with stainless.
jfwnfo from Niagara Falls, ON
It is sold as made from stainless steel but there are no markings on the pan itself to indicate this nor a company logo from Fox Run. There was a paper liner in the pan that gave this information. It works fine and is easy to clean.

Plea bargaining with budgetary constraints
AbstractIn this paper, we construct a simple model that illustrates a perverse effect associated with plea bargaining in which an increase in sanctions can lead to reduced deterrence. This finding is derived from the interaction of binding budgetary constraints and plea bargaining. In an environment with these institutional features, higher sanctions are not always optimal when resources are limited, even if such sanctions are costless. Such potential phenomena may be useful in explaining the fact that many states have introduced limitations on plea bargaining. Prosecutors being concerned with their conviction rates is necessary for such a result to be present.

Boeing: Still the Largest Jet Maker in the World?
Despite a myriad of problems plaguing the 787 Dreamliner, end-of-year uncertainty over whether the jet manufacturer would locate a major new assembly line for the redesigned 777X in the Puget Sound area, and concerns regarding the growing might of Airbus (EADSY.PK), Boeing (NYSE:BA) still was able to maintain its crown as the world's largest planemaker in 2013.
Overcoming fierce opposition from local leaders of Boeing's largest machinist union, the eight-year labor contract extension proposed by the jet manufacturer was accepted by a narrow margin in Friday's vote, meaning the 777X program will be located in Washington state. That means that Boeing will likely be able to continue the long stretch of labor peace at its manufacturing headquarters in the Seattle region into the coming decades. Without strikes, which likely follow any Boeing decision to locate the assembly line outside the Seattle area, there will be one less reason for missed production deadlines for the 777X — a redesigned version of the company's best-selling jet. Had the contract extension been voted down, as was an earlier version, Boeing would have been forced to vet locations in other states, build new plants, and train a new workforce by 2017, the date production is slated to begin.
The 777X — which boasts the largest engines ever put on a plane and key costs-saving technologies that could change trends in modern aircraft design — is considered a pivotal to Boeing's future profitability and a crucial component in the company's fight against Airbus for dominance in the long-range, twin engine market. On November 17, Boeing officially launched the 777X program at the 2013 Dubai Airshow, with a record number of customer orders and commitments made for the jet manufacturer's latest twin-aisle aircraft. According to a company press release, it was the "largest product launch in commercial jetliner history by dollar value." Orders and commitments included Lufthansa's (DLAKY.PK) 34 planes, Abu Dhabi-based Etihad Airways' 25 plans, Qatar Airways' 50 planes, and Emirates' 150 planes. The combined value of those agreements was more than $95 billion at list prices.

Your willingness to believe that this bill "was the possibility that it would lead to a universal gun registry making it possible for our government to confiscate our guns," simply demonstrates how out of touch with reality the pro-gun nuts are. First off do you really think the government, even with all of the military and drones could possibly confiscate all guns, at once? When that impossible delusional scenario started you don't think the people would band together is large enough groups to effectively fend off the government and start a second Civil War? It's still just so much fear-mongering to further an indefensible agenda by the pro-gun nuts.
I've said it before but it doesn't seem to sink into the thick skulls of the deranged, Every right brings with it responsibility. Every great right brings evengreater responsibility.
All the No Responsibility Allowed works to do is make sure its membership can avoid those responsibilities. And every other great right enumerated in the Bill of Rights has rational, reasonable restrictions placed on them, responsibilities added to the rights because society changed and chose to abuse those rights in ways that the Founding Fathers could not fathom and when they wrote the Constitution and its Bill of Rights.
"the good folks at the NRA"
Can't wait to see what new good deed they'll do.
Typical socialist, believes in collective guilt, but not individual responsibility. One person, and one person only, bears the responsibility for the shooting at Sandy Hook.
Yup. That person is the NRA since the SCOTUS says that corporations are people. And what does socialism have to do with guns?
Paul Szep, Hitler would agree with you.
NRA had nothing to do with Newtown massacre. I wish people would read, listin and use critical thinking.
I am a member of NRA yet I can sympathize with families. Our son died from a gun too.
"No one in the NRA, has any compassion for the victims of this terrible tragedy." Or any other gun related mass murder."
I am and know literally hundreds of members of the NRA. They are an absolute rainbow of occupations, race and culture. My G.P. (doctor) is a long distance bench rest shooter and would be the first to take issue with your remark. I do as well. I realize you are rebutting "skipcarlsen's" remark but you are really over the top in your assertion. I am personally offended by remarks as such and just categorize them in the ranting/hater category. FWIW the bill in question was hurriedly written and was a political compromise rather than a well thought out and functional solution to the problem. I favor background checks but after reading the legislation could see many areas that attempted to appease the gun rights group that were badly written and were weak in definition of database issues. "MikeFive" also pointed out some areas of the bill that would actually weaken the regulations involving gun dealers. I don't always agree with the NRA's position on issues, including this one. I do however have great respect (and experience) with their training and safety programs that are second to none.
I generally try not to get personal in my remarks and but this to me is just one step above vulgar base insults.
LaPierre only cares about the money he gets and he will continue to act insane as long as he is paid well to do it.
"A majority of we American abhor the actions of 45 craven trolls who failed the country and it's people and we have no such fears as you weak willed cowardly gunlovers profess."
I am neither weak willed or cowardly, but I am an avid target shooter and gun owner. When you do the math you might remember that when the vote was so close it should tell you that you may not have such an absolute overwhelming majority. I supported this bill but still find your remarks repugnant. I live in California and we have almost the strictest gun laws in the country. All this name calling and insults have one bottom line effect: they harden people into their positions and make compromise neigh on impossible.
This is exactly what they did. As the old saying goes, "One picture is worth a thousand words.
I know this cartoon appeals to the prurient interests of many on this board, but I for one think it is just completely lacking in taste and find it demeaning to the children of Newtown. Why not just show him with his pants down around his ankles pooping? Too graphic? I guess the disappointing results of the vote on the gun control bill was just too much for Szep to bear.
If we continue down this path we can just turn this "dialog" in a rabid junior high cut-low session and not even make a pretense at civility.
We're not allowed to call Pett a clueless moron. It wouyld be dedundant anyway.

Samsung certainly took their own sweet time to release the GPS fix for the Captivate over at AT&T, and it has taken a good seven months for the Android 2.2 Froyo update to arrive on this smartphone – only to have it pulled back with the source link to said update disappearing a short while after it was appeared. Was this due to AT&T not being prepared to make an official announcement on the update, or is it a mistake that the webmaster made, revealing AT&T's hand earlier than expected? Whatever the case is, we do know that there now is an official Froyo update for the Samsung Captivate over at AT&T, and hope that this will be followed by an official announcement.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — Sylvester Stallone says that despite his "Rambo" image and new shoot-em-up film "Bullet to the Head," he's in favor of new national gun control legislation.
Stallone supported the 1994 "Brady bill" that included a now-expired ban on assault weapons, and hopes that ban can be reinstated.
RELATED: Celeb protesters
"I know people get (upset) and go, 'They're going to take away the assault weapon.' Who ... needs an assault weapon? Like really, unless you're carrying out an assault. ... You can't hunt with it. ... Who's going to attack your house, a (expletive) army?"
The 66-year-old actor, writer and director said he also hopes for an additional focus on mental health to prevent future mass shootings.
RELATED: Aging action stars: still hot or not?
"It's unbelievably horrible, what's happened. I think the biggest problem, seriously, is not so much guns. It's that every one of these people that have done these things in the past 30 years are friggin' crazy. Really crazy! And that's where we've dropped the ball: mental health," he said. "That to me is our biggest problem in the future, is insanity coupled with isolation."
Stallone is now in production on his next project, pairing up with the former "Raging Bull" Robert De Niro for "Grudge Match," about two aging boxers.
RELATED: Life in photos: Sylvester Stallone
"People think it's going to be some geezer brawl. Really? OK, they're in for a surprise. I'm telling you. I've been working on the fight, the choreography. He's taking it deadly serious. Because no one wants to be shown up," Stallone said of De Niro. "It's going to be like a 'Rocky' fight. This will be 'Rocky 7,' with me fighting — with Rocky fighting the 'Raging Bull.'"

Britain's Olympic champions have been recognised with golden postboxes and special stamps. In America, new champions have been given a healthy $25,000 cash bonus.
But none of that can hold a candle to the prizes lavished upon Trinidad and Tobago's champion Keshorn Walcott.
The 19-year-old was a shock winner of the javelin, taking advantage of the world's best all having off-days as he came through to claim victory with a relatively unremarkable throw of 84.58m.
But while his throw was rather modest by Olympic standards (it was the shortest winning effort since 1988), the prizes it brought him are anything but: on his return to his home country Walcott was given £100,000 in cash, a luxury home, 20,000 acres of land and - best of all - a free lighthouse!
As if that weren't enough, Walcott - who is the first athlete from outside Europe to win the javelin in 20 years - will also have a yet-to-be-determined national landmark named in his honour, while Caribbean Airlines will name a plane after him.
The scale of the prizes reflect the rarity of the achievement for a Trinidadian: Walcott is only the second gold medallist ever from Trinidad and Tobago, with the first being sprinter Hasley Crawford, who won the 100m back in 1976.
Story: Olympic star haunted by city attack
It wasn't only Walcott who benefited from his throw, however: everyone in the country got a day off work to mark his achievement, thanks to Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Biessessar declaring a national holiday.
No wonder so many turned out to welcome him home: thousands of people
turned up at the airport to welcome him home, all decked out in the
national colours of red and black.

Gabriel Iglesias
Comedian Gabriel Iglesias feels the love in Miami Beach.
Every show, the cakes just pile up. And that is not necessarily a good thing for Gabriel Iglesias, the big-boned comedian who coined the term "fluffy" as a substitute for, well, morbidly obese. He packed the Fillmore Theater Thursday night as one of the headliners of the South Beach Comedy Festival and admitted to the room that he's going to have to start taking his health a bit more seriously.
"I found out I have Type 2 diabetes," he told during his show. Not so funny, but hopefully it will stop his legions of adoring fans from sending him cakes at every venue. It got so packed with sweets at the back of the Fillmore that one of the workers, who obviously hadn't heard of him, asked if he was the Cake Boss.
Igelsias was certainly feeling the love in Miami. He filled an hour with new material - stories about his visit to perform for the Prince of Saudi Arabia, jokes about being a step dad and a recent pregnancy scare. But after his allotted time, he asked the audience if he should continue, at which point he dug into his archives. "I'm a comedian and i already have greatest hits," he joked after hearing audience members yelling out his classic jokes (The Fat and the Furious, The Cop and the Donuts).
The good news for Miami, though, is that Iglesias will be filming his next one hour show in the Magic City.
The name of the new special? "Live by the cake, Die by the Cake."

Lovely open rustic lodge
My mother and I concluded a "tour" of family visits with a 6 night stay at Barney Point. The setting is stunning with views across the lake and down the lake from this treed ledge above the lake. Every night we built an outdoor fire and watched the sun set. There great view to the lake from the front of the house and captivating partial views from most of the bedrooms. The big open space is great for visiting, hanging out and entertaining. We had multiples dinner guests and visitors over the course of our time there and everyone loved it. The owner Tim was very communicative in advance of the trip. We ended up arriving later than planned, and he brought in a lot of wood for the fireplace insert. What's more he turned on the lights and the space heaters and laid in a fire so that we felt immediately welcomed when we arrived. This particular night was chilly and he set out extra blankets and so on. We were very comfortable and did not get cold, and it was easy to learn to use the fireplace insert, which warms the main area of the house quickly. If you have a cold sensitive person in your group, the downstairs bedroom stays quite comfortable with the space heater and the fireplace. There is a huge screened porch with another big table suitable for a big group, again with amazing views. The kitchen is well equipped and we had everything we needed. I would suggest a few more non-glass plates and a salad spinner....but thats a suggestion not a complaint :-) This is a setting best for people who appreciate simplicity, beauty, and a sense of history. It is convenient to the causeway trail, which I feel is a must do for walkers or bikers. There are grocery stores a short drive away though I prefer to shop at City Market in Burlington which is an awesome market. The drive-in movie theater is also a must-do. We definitely will look to return to Barney Point. We have stayed at many homes on the lake in Colchester, Shelbourne and Charlotte over the past three years when our daughter has been in school at UVM and this was certainly our favorite.

- Studio: New Line Cinema
- Release Date: Apr 30, 2010
- Starring: Jackie Earle Haley, Kyle Gallner, Rooney Mara
- Summary: Nancy, Kris, Quentin, Jesse and Dean all live on Elm Street. At night, they're all having the same dream--of the same man, wearing a tattered red and green striped sweater, a beaten fedora half-concealing a disfigured face and a gardener's glove with knives for fingers. And they're all hearing the same frightening voice...one by one, he terrorizes them within the curved walls of their dreams, where the rules are his, and the only way out is to wake up.

Score distribution:
Positive: 2 out of 25
Mixed: 13 out of 25
Negative: 10 out of 25
The ninth film in the franchise is competent enough but it won't freeze the heart or fire the imagination.
Freddy simply isn't as scary as he used to be, even though Jackie Earle Haley, taking over from Robert Englund in the role, plays Krueger essentially straight, keeping the one-liners to a minimum.
It's the Bay touch you feel in the way actors register as body count, characters go undeveloped, and sensation trumps feeling. A nightmare, indeed.
While the 1984 film has aged, its now-familiar jolts still pack more punch than this pic's recycled ones, which sometimes register so tepidly as to cause snickers.
Good ol' Fred loses any sense of playful shock he once possessed and turns into a generic figure meticulously manufactured to simultaneously gross and freak us out. It doesn't work.
Score distribution:
Positive: 34 out of 88
Mixed: 18 out of 88
Negative: 36 out of 88
Nov 9, 2010Oscar Worthy. The way Samuel Bayer pulls off the tension and brilliant interaction between the characters is astounding. Freddy Kruger belongs in the high elite club of film characters such as Atticus Finch, The Godfather, And General Patton. An absolutely incredible film, that has to be seen by everyone, young and old.… Expand
Jan 4, 2013Personally, I think this movie gets far too much negativity than it deserves. Is it better than the original? No. But how can it be. The original has now been put on such a high pedestal that everyone has forgotten all of its flaws. This movie is cursed with having to fill extremely large shoes that I doubt anyone could fill. Jackie Earle Haley is no where near as good as Robert Englund, but doesn't do a bad job either, Englund did have 7 movies to get it right after all. Overall: I think this is a great film and I really hope they continue with the series, I just hope that they listen to the fans a bit more for the next film.… Expand
May 30, 2013It's funny; of the main aspects that determined my experience with this remake, I can't if some are pros or cons... which leaves me with mixed feelings once the credits roll.
First and foremost: the new Freddy... good or bad? Which one trumps the other: my positive reaction to Haley's capable, if novel handling of the horror icon, or my belief that Freddy minus Robert Englund is an almost fatal downgrade no matter how unavoidable?
Do I feel like this was a necessary addition to the list of post-classic horror flicks being remade for the new generation, or do I feel like the series suffered enough forced modernization with "vs Jason"?
Do I feel like the "scares" betrayed lazy script-writing, or do I concede that it's all been done and simply appreciate the nigh-impeccable execution?
All told, no matter what the verdict, it will be middle of the scale. It's no shining piece of cinema, nor is it a fly-covered Rob-Zombian turd... I just couldn't tell you which side of "perfectly average" this movie falls on. If you expect it to stand alongside the original, maybe you'd best not bother with the remake lest you be disappointed by the deviations from the source material. On the other hand, if you can see past the limitations inherent in remaking a pillar of late-century horror for these aesthetically jaded, cinematically desensitized times, you might just find some value.
Seriously though... bravo Haley, but there's just no getting around the decidedly Englund-less quality of this movie.… Expand
Jun 19, 2011This is a decent movie, that is fun to watch, but is not scary at all. It is well acted, and Jackie-Earl Haley as Freddy is malevolent, but that is it. There is never anything that pops out at you (minus the end, which I liked), nothing that scares you, and everything remains flat. It is very predictable, due to obviously being based on another film. It can be quite gory at times, which we want from a horror movie, but that is not good here. Overall, it is not a direct remake, but it is close enough to loose our attentions, and make us want it to end (in a bad way).… Expand
Jan 11, 2014Sadly it was felt that this film franchise needed a reboot and thus the 2010 NOES was born. Jackie Earle Haley's Freddy is nowhere as scary as Robert Englund's and the cast proves to be pretty yet bland.… Expand
Dec 13, 2011The remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street isn't a bad film because of complete lack of competence. On the contrary, on a technical level, the stunts and effects are handled extremely well. What makes it a particularly sub-par film is the fact that it's so empty below the surface. Whereas the original was a thinking man's horror film, this version substitutes original ideas and genuinely scary imagery for cheap thrills and an abundance of gore. As a remake, it has little new to offer - every scene that "pays tribute" to the original is a pale shadow in comparison, and the few original ideas are lazy and completely lacking in the ability to scare. Though Jackie Earle Haley makes a decent enough Freddie Krueger, somehow the character loses all power and sense of threat with the filmmakers' decision to flesh out his backstory - he was scary in the original because he was an enigma! The vast majority of the cast are laughable in their performances (though at least Rooney Mara looks like she's trying) and the script is abysmal. Even after all this, the main crime this remake commits is not that it isn't fit to lick the boots of Wes Craven's chilling classic, it's that it simply isn't scary. It's unsubtle, dumb, and about as terrifying as a trip to your local post office. Thank goodness Wes Craven had nothing to do with this insulting version of his seminal horror creation, but at least he can still dream of the good old days, when original ideas still counted for something in filmmaking.… Expand
