To determine experimentally the magnetization or open circuit characteristic of agenerator and determine the critical field resistance and critical speed
Prepare a List of the apparatus required based on the name plate ratings and Circuitdiagram in the following format.
4.Rheostat250 ohm/5A
1. Connect the circuit as shown in the fig2. Set the potential divider to zero output keeping motor field rheostat in minimumresistance position3. Switch on the supply and start the motor with the help of the starter. Adjust the speedof the motor generator set to the rated speed of the generator by controlling the motor field resistance the set speed is to be maintained constant throughout the experiment Notedown the voltmeter reading at zero field current (lf). Increase the field current lf uniformly in steps, by changing the potential divider tapping, simultaneously note downthe field current (lf) and the terminal voltage (E) across the generator armature terminals.4. Continue the experiment till saturation of the field is reached.5. Continue the experiment for decreasing values of If in steps by decreasing the tappingof potential divider.
Critical Field Resistance:
It is that value of the field resistance at which the D.C. shuntgenerator will fail to excite.
Critical Speed:
It is that speed for which the given shunt field resistance becomes thecritical field resistance. Critical field resistance is obtained by plotting the OCC as infig.2 and determining the slope of the tangent to the linear position of the curve from theorigin. While drawing the tangent, the initial position of the O.C.C is neglected.
Due to residual magnetism in the poles some EMF is generated even when If = 0. Hence the curvestarts a little way up. The slight curvature at the lower end is due to magnetic inertia. It is seen that in thefirst part of the curve is practically straight. Hence the flux and the consequently the generated EMF isdirectly proportional to the exciting current. However at the higher flux densities where it is small iron pathreluctance becomes appreciable and straight.Field windings are connected parallel to the armature and it is called dc shunt generator. Due toresidual magnetism some initial emf and hence some current will be generated. This current while passinginto the field coils will strengthen the magnetism of poles. This will increase pole flux which will further increase the generated emf. Increased emf and flux proceeds till equilibrium reached. This reinforcementof emf and flux proceeds till equilibrium reached at some point.
GRAPH between If and Eg* :
1. Perform the experiment at constant speed.
2. Readings are to be taken for uniformly increasing and then uniformly decreasing fieldcurrent.
3. Check must be made for residual magnetism otherwise; the field terminals may berequired to be reversed.
Thus an OCC and LOAD characteristics of a separately excited generator was performed and therespective graphs were drawn

Ladies and gentlemen we have a winner.
According to the Los Angeles Times, former CEO of Microsoft in Steve Ballmer has submitted an offer of $2 billion for the Los Angeles Clippers.
Ballmer's $2B bid beats the Geffen/Ellison group by $400M, the Ressler/Karsh group by $800M.
— darren rovell (@darrenrovell) May 29, 2014
Ballmer's $2 billion offer topples the previous high for a NBA team sale made earlier this month when Herb Kohl sold the Milwaukee Bucks for $550 million. The $2 billion bid is also the second highest sale price for a sports team behind last years purchase of the Los Angeles Dodgers which clocked in at $2.1 billion.
This isn't the first time Ballmer has attempted to purchase a NBA franchise. Last season, Ballmer paired up with Chris Hansen to bid on the Sacramento Kings in hopes to move the franchise to Seattle.
Ballmer's push to move the Kings to Seattle has a few fans worried that he could attempt to do the same with the Clippers, but in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Ballmer reiterated that he wouldn't push for a move to Seattle.
"If I get interested in the Clippers, it would be for Los Angeles. I don't work anymore, so I have more geographic flexibility than I did a year, year-and-a half ago. Moving them anywhere else would be value destructive."
Ramona Shelburne of ESPN Los Angeles also recently tweeted that Ballmer informed Shelly Sterling that he would move the team if awarded the club.
The sale can't be finalized until Donald Sterling signs off the sale, along with the approval of the league's other 29 owners. It's hard to know where Sterling currently stands on the matter as he flip flops on his decision to either sell the team expeditiously or fight the NBA through the court system.
As more information on the impending sale is revealed, we will update you all as soon as possible.

Fall Front Porch
For comparison, here is my Summer porch decor from July.
My black porch rockers sort of go with the Halloween theme.
I got this clay pumpkin years ago and he always lands on the front porch. His hat comes off so you can put a candle in him.
I covered some bright summer green outdoor pillows with burlap and painted numbers on them.
BTW, I will not give a tutorial on making the pillow covers, because I cheated and it involves iron on Stitch Witchery fusible bonding tape and straight pins. Yeah, I had a little fight with the sewing machine and it won, so out came the Stitch Witchery.
My front door is flanked by my oval planters.
Each planter has a grass plant and two types of potato vines.
The potato vines will die off at the first hint of a frost, so I have planted a backup plan. Ornamental Cabbage. Or is it Ornamental Kale?
Cabbage I think. Doesn't it look pretty peaking out from underneath the grass.
I have a green one and
a purple one in each pot.
And to the right of the front door, my pumpkin in sitting in an urn that used to have summer flowers in it.
I switched out my doormat insert to my Halloween one. I have a few different centers that can go in here. The black rubber part stays and just the coir center is changeable.
I love my rusty orange mums that I found this year. I would tell you the name of them, but I lost the tag for them. And I always keep the tags!!!
This is where my gourds from this post ended up.

Your porch is so very pretty Pam! Love the pillows. I have cheated too and used stitch witch, that is all the sewing I can do:) Thanks for joining me this week, always a pleasure to stop by. DebbieReplyDelete
A little late stopping by from debbiedoos! I really like the pumpkin in the urn! Everything looks crisp for fall!ReplyDelete
Love your porch pictures. The pillows are a favorite!ReplyDelete
It looks wonderful Pam. I love your urn with the pumpkin in it. ♥OReplyDelete
Hi Pam, I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get here, but I'm lovin' your front porch! The black rockers really set off your porch. And however you made those pillows you did a great job, the burlap and numbers are wonderful! Thank you so much for linking up for VIF!ReplyDelete
Just became your newest follower... Have to run and get my daughter from practice but I will be back to read more!! Please come visit me too!ReplyDelete
Your plants look so beautiful still. Gorgeous fall porch, Pam.ReplyDelete
Pam, your porch looks lovely. I admire how full your potato vines are. Mine needs trimming, it's getting scraggly. The pumpkin is adorable!ReplyDelete

What are the dimensions of the burlap pillows?
@anonymous - They are called lumbar pillows and they measure 13" high by 20" wide.ReplyDelete
Can I ask where you found those rockers? I am in LOVE with them! :) Super cute porch!ReplyDelete

- If a turbine's brake fails, the turbine can spin freely until it disintegrates or catches fire.
- Often turbine fires cannot be extinguished because of the height, and are left to burn themselves out. In the process, they generate toxic fumes and can scatter flaming debris over a wide area, starting secondary fires below.
- In California, one such fire burned 68 acres, another 220 acres, and in Palm Springs several ―spot fires‖ had been generated in surrounding areas. In Hawaii, 95 acres were burned. Australia lost 80,000 acres of forests located mostly in a national park. Spain lost nearly 200 acres from one fire. A comment on a German fire mentioned that ―burning debris‖ from a turbine had traveled several hundred meters from the site. In Holland, three burning blades from a mere 270-foot tower cast a 50-foot flaming shard 220 feet from the site.
- On October 3rd of this year Texas State Representative Susan King spoke out about the fire on her Taylor County ranch that was sparked by a wind turbine. "I'm watching a turbine on my land on fire, throwing fire balls on my property. I think it needs to be very clearly delineated: if you have property and machinery that is the source of a fire that damages someone land or uses someone's resources who is responsible for the cost," said King.
- Ice Throw – During winter ice may form on turbine blades and subsequently be thrown off during operation. This is a potential safety hazard, and has led to localized shut-downs
- Original Duxbury report from DNV/GEC in 2009 (Page 36) removed school locations from consideration because of 1) potential safety concerns related to operating equipment near areas highly frequented by the public (particularly children)" and 2) "Elevated risk the turbine may pose an "attractive nuisance"
Are these risks not relevant for golfers or recreational users of the North Hill Marsh?

Inspections, Compliance, Enforcement, and Criminal Investigations
Fong Hsiang Enterprise Co. Pte. Ltd. 14-Nov-01
Public Health Service
Food and Drug Administration
Washington, DC 20204
Mr. Albert Lee
Managing Director
Fong Hsiang Enterprise Co. Pte. Ltd.
No. 1 Fishery Port Road
Jurong Ind. Estate
Singapore 619726
Dear Mr. Lee:
We inspected your firm, located at No.1 Fishery Port Road, Jurong Ind. Estate, Singapore, on April 18, 2001, and found that you have serious deviations from the Seafood HACCP Regulations (21 CFR Part 123). These deviations, some of which were previously brought to your attention, cause your Frozen Wahoo and Tuna to be in violation of section 402(a)(4) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. You can find this Act and the seafood HACCP regulations through links in FDA?s home page at www.fda.gov.
Thank you for your prompt response of May 15, 2001 to our investigation findings. Your letter states that you are now sending samples of the tuna you receive to a laboratory to be tested for histamine content. You also state that you have included and implemented controls for the hazard of metal inclusion in your HACCP plan for Frozen Swordfish and that the sanitation deficiencies listed in the FDA 483 have been corrected.
In addition to the deficiencies noted during our inspection, we have made the following determinations during our review of the USFDA inspection report submitted by our investigation team:
The deviations were as follows:
1. You must have a HACCP plan that lists the critical limits that must be met, to comply with 21 CFR 123.6(c)(3). Your firm?s HACCP plans for Frozen Yellowfin Loin and Frozen Wahoo Loin do not list a critical limit for sensory evaluation at your receiving critical control point to control the food safety hazard of histamine. USFDA recommends that lots be rejected if more than 2.5% of the lot exhibits characteristics of decomposition. Your sampling plan for sensory evaluation must be representative of the lot. USFDA recommends 118 fish. Chapter 7 of the Fish & Fishery Products Hazards and Controls Guide provides an example of how this information can be included in your HACCP plan.
2. You must have a HACCP plan that lists monitoring procedures for each critical control point to comply with 21 CFR 123.6(c)(4). Your firm?s HACCP plans for Frozen Yellowfin Loin and Frozen Wahoo Loin do not list the monitoring procedures and frequencies for sampling fish for histamine testing. The plan states that you will evaluate the appearance of the fish by a "visual review" and sensory testing to determine histamine content. Visual examinations and sensory testing cannot provide consistently accurate determinations of histamine content.
Your response states that you are sending samples from each shipment of fish to a lab for histamine testing. Your corrected plan should list this as part of your monitoring procedures and include a representative sampling frequency. The new Fish and Fishery Products Hazards and Controls Guide recommend that a sampling frequency of 18 fish per lot be analyzed.
Your monitoring frequency for internal temperature lists "every fish hold". We are unsure if this means every fish in the ship hold or every hold of fish. We would appreciate your explaining this phrase.
Note: In addition to the above deviations, your corrective action of testing for histamine content in the product that does not pass your sensory evaluations would no longer be appropriate since your lots will be tested for histamine content as part of your regular monitoring procedures at your Receiving critical control point.
Please respond in writing within six weeks from your receipt of this letter. Your response should outline the specific things you are doing to correct these deviations. Please include in your response copies of your corrected HACCP plans (in English) and five days of completed monitoring records results, histamine testing results, harvest vessel records, corrective actions, or other useful information (translated to English where necessary) that would assist us in evaluating your corrections. If you cannot complete all corrections before you respond, we expect that you will explain the reason for your delay and state when you will correct any remaining deviations. Failure to provide us evidence of corrections to the deviations may result in your products being placed on "Detention Without Physical Examination."
This letter may not list all the deviations at your facility. You are responsible for ensuring that your processing plant operates in compliance with the Act, the Seafood HACCP regulations, and the Good Manufacturing Practice regulations (21 CFR Part 110). You also have a responsibility to use procedures to prevent further violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and all applicable regulations.
Please send your reply to:Food and Drug Administration

As the St. Louis Rams backfield turns would make for a great daytime soap opera, but sadly for them, the unfortunate reality is their inability to find a consistent running back to compliment the passing game is a big reason why the Rams are
Look no further than their loss Monday night to the Seattle Seahawks. By having Zac Stacy control the game on the ground with his 134 yards rushing, St. Louis was in position at the end of the game to get what would have been a huge upset over their division rivals.
But once Stacy went down with an ankle injury, they were unable to punch it in when they got down to the goaline at the end of the game. With Stacy now likely out for at least a game, it's likely the team will go to Benny Cunningham if he's healthy, which it looks like he'll be this week:
Jeff Fisher said there's "a pretty good chance" RB Benny Cunningham will return to practice this week.
— Jim Thomas (@jthom1) October 29, 2013
Daryl Richardson has been ineffective and Cunningham should get a chance to play more going forward.

Sen. Hillary Clinton paid a (virtual) visit Monday to Keith Olbermann's "Countdown," where she offered explanations for why she used an image of Osama bin Laden in her new campaign ad and why she accepted the support of Richard Mellon Scaife, the Pittsburgh-based media mogul who was once considered a key figure in the "vast right-wing conspiracy" against the Clintons during Bill's tenure in office.

Use your phony guns as clubs!A creative fighting tactic useful by unarmed people in any situation: Make what's around you a weapon. Even outside the dangerous environments, there's a lot of stuff to try. Anything can be used as a club if it's sturdy enough, and most stuff will develop a sharp edge if properly coaxed. For comedy value, go as wacky as you like. Compare MacGyvering. Depending on the setting, there's a lot of options:

No offense to Oprah, but if I hear one more freakin' millionaire tell me how to live life to the fullest and be great, I'm gonna, well, do nothing--just be mad! Look, give me a about $20 million, Oprah, and I'll show people how to have a fulfilled life, too!! I have a better idea. How 'bout she sponsors a two-day seminar with a bunch of homeless bums, poor single moms who don't know the kid's (kids') daddy(ies), a bunch of 20-year-old high school dropouts with arrests records, and Democrats and show people what NOT to do if you want to live a fulfilled life! Oh, she can accept EBT cards for ticket sales.

Slan Hunterby A E Van Vogt
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The sequel to A. E. van Vogts Slan, one of the most famous SF novels of the twentieth century!
This startling SF adventure novel is a collaboration between the classic SF Grand Master, A. E. van Vogt, and contemporary master Kevin J. Anderson. At the time of his death in 2000, van Vogt left a partial draft and an outline for the sequel to his most famous novel, Slan. Van Vogts jam-packed, one-damn-thingafter-another storytelling technique makes his active plots compulsively readable. Now the story has been completed by Anderson, and is sure to be one of the most popular SF novels of the year.
Slans are a race of superior mutants in the far future, smarter and stronger than Homo sapiens and able to read minds. Yet they are a persecuted minority, survivors of terrible genocidal wars, who live in hiding from the mass of humanity. Slan Hunter tells of this towering conflict in the far future, when a new war among the races of mankind bursts out, and humanity—all types of humanity—struggles to survive. The heroic Jommy Cross of Slan is once again called upon to save the human race.
About the Author
A. E. van Vogt was a SFWA Grand Master. He lived in Los Angeles, California, and died in 2000.
Kevin J. Anderson has written dozens of national bestsellers and has been a finalist for the Nebula Award, the Bram Stoker Award, and the SFX Readers Choice Award. He lives in Monument, Colorado.

The magical island adventure continues next week in The Vampire Diaries episode 4.14, "Down The Rabbit Hole!" I am pretty excited to see how things turn out, hopefully the episode brings a lot of revelations and a lot of action. Can't wait! To see what awaits you, check out the official synopsis, the extended promo and a few photos for the upcoming episode below.
Official episode description for "Down The Rabbit Hole:"
"CHARLIE BEWLEY FROM "TWILGHT" GUEST STARS AS ONE OF THE FIVE HUNTERS — On the island, Damon has an ugly run-in with a Hunter named Vaughn, and realizes he is one of The Five. Stefan confesses his true feelings about the possibility of becoming human again to Elena. When a stunning new piece of information about the cure is suddenly revealed, it changes the stakes for everyone. Jeremy helps Bonnie recognize what is real and what is an illusion, and Shane is comforted by a woman from his past, Caitlin. Back in Mystic Falls, Caroline and Tyler find that their attempt to translate the code on the Hunter's Sword is futile without help from Klaus, who has his own reasons for solving the puzzle."

The "B" for Brad stands for busy.
Okay - I was thinking of defining the contest in a couple of days - give everyone time to select your answers - then it is an April contest.
How about a running contest for the Spring or Summer (Mt Washington Spring or Summer hehe). Something like "pick the warmest day during this time frame" or "total sunshine minutes in (month)".
If it's an April contest then my answer is 30
And mine will be 25!
Karl is dissappointed
Rich repeats himself again
Brad is busy
Karen is confused
And Billysinc and Bob are off guessing when they have no idea what the topic is. I think they are more confused than Karen. See other post for the new and improved contest - never ever done like this before.

Golden Globe-winning actor Michael C. Hall (Dexter, Six Feet Under) performs Truman Capote's masterstroke about a young writer's charmed fascination with his unorthodox neighbor, the "American geisha" Holly Golightly. Holly - a World War II-era society girl in her late teens - survives via socialization, attending parties and restaurants with men from the wealthy upper class who also provide her with money and expensive gifts. Over the course of the novella, the seemingly shallow Holly slowly opens up to the curious protagonist.
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.
"Frankenstein Assemblage From Anaemic All-Star Cast"
Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores with exuberant humour the irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the '30s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence, and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of one man's struggle for justice. But the weight of history will only tolerate so much. To Kill a Mockingbird is a coming-of-age story, an anti-racist novel, a historical drama of the Great Depression and a sublime example of the Southern writing tradition.
"Wonderful edition"
A Signature Performance: Kenneth Branagh plays this like a campfire ghost story, told by a haunted, slightly insane Marlow.
"Heart of Darkness - Read by Kenneth Branagh"
One of the most revered works in English literature, Great Expectations traces the coming of age of a young orphan, Pip, from a boy of shallow aspirations into a man of maturity. From the chilling opening confrontation with an escaped convict to the grand but eerily disheveled estate of bitter old Miss Havisham, all is not what it seems in Dickens' dark tale of false illusions and thwarted desire.
"Difficult to stop listening to it"
In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose.
"Superb production"
Set in the context of Victorian social and medical debate, this novel is about rebellion, posing fundamental questions about the nature of social authority and obedience. This revised edition draws on recent theoretical work on gender and class.
"Romance and Finance"
Late one moonlit night, Walter Hartright encounters a solitary and terrified woman dressed all in white. He saves her from capture by her pursuers, and determines to solve the mystery of her distress and terror. This gripping tale of murder, intrigue, madness and mistaken identity has never been out of print since its publication.
Austen's heroine Elizabeth Bennet deals with the issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Austen at her wittiest.
"Classic story."
Set during the time of the Napoleonic Wars, this classic gives a satirical picture of a worldly society. The novel revolves around the exploits of the impoverished but beautiful and devious Becky Sharp.
"A glorious romp of a novel!"
A portrait of the residents of an English country town in the mid-19th century, Cranford relates the adventures of Miss Matty and Miss Deborah, two middle-aged spinster sisters striving to live with dignity in reduced circumstances.
"Best Cranford Reading!"
Barchester Towers, Trollope's most popular novel, is the second of the six Chronicles of Barsetshire. Trollope continues the story, begun in The Warden, of Mr Harding and his daughter Eleanor.
"West is best"
Narrator Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.
"Powerful and moving"
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times"; "It is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known"; so the novel begins and ends with some of Dicken's best-known words, and between the two is every Briton's view of the worst excesses of the French Revolution.
"The best of books, the best of readers"
Streetwise George and his big, childlike friend Lennie are drifters, searching for work in the fields and valleys of California. They have nothing except the clothes on their back, and a hope that one day they'll find a place of their own and live the American dream. But dreams come at a price. Gentle giant Lennie doesn't know his own strength, and when they find work at a ranch he gets into trouble with the boss's daughter-in-law. Trouble so bad that even his protector George may not be able to save him....
"LOTR - Beautifully read"
Shocking and controversial when it was first published, Steinbeck's Pulitzer prize-winning epic remains his undisputed masterpiece. Set against the background of Dust Bowl Oklahoma and Californian migrant life, it tells of the Joad family, who, like thousands of others, are forced to travel west in search of the promised land.
"A audiobook masterpiece"
At the heart of Joseph Heller's best-selling novel, first published in 1961, is a satirical indictment of military madness and stupidity, and the desire of the ordinary man to survive it.
Frodo and the Companions of the Ring have been beset by danger during their quest to prevent the Ruling Ring from falling into the hands of the Dark Lord by destroying it in the Cracks of Doom. Now they continue their journey alone down the great River Anduin, alone, that is, save for the mysterious creeping figure that follows wherever they go.
"One 'Book' To Rule Them All!"
The work tells the story of Jane's early life, her experience at Lowood School and as a governess. Her refusal to accept Rochester's love on any but her own strictly moral terms is a passionate cry for independence.
"A beautiful reading by Juliet Stevenson"
The Companions of the Ring have become involved in separate adventures as the quest continues. Aragon, revealed as the hidden heir of the ancient Kings of the West, joined with the Riders of Rohan against the forces of Isengard, and took part in the desperate victory of the Hornburg. Merry and Pippin, captured by orcs, escaped into Fangorn Forest and there encountered the Ents. And all the time the armies of the Dark Lord are massing.
Patrick Bateman is 26 and works on Wall Street. He is handsome, sophisticated, charming, and intelligent. He is also a psychopath. And he is taking us to a head-on collision with America's greatest dream - and its worst nightmare...
"A most uncomfortable and gripping listen!"
Jackson, Mississippi, 1962. Aibileen is a black maid raising her 17th white child. Minny, Aibileen's best friend, is the sassiest woman in Mississippi: a wonderful cook with a gossip's tongue. Graduate Skeeter returns from college with ambitions, but her mother will not be happy until she's married. Although world's apart, Skeeter, Aibileen and Minny's lives converge over a clandestine project that will change the town of Jackson forever.
"Relished every minute"
At once a Gothic thriller, a passionate romance, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of science, Frankenstein tells the story of committed science student Victor Frankenstein. Obsessed with discovering "the cause of generation and life" and "bestowing animation upon lifeless matter", Frankenstein assembles a human being from stolen body parts. However, upon bringing it to life, he recoils in horror at the creature's hideousness.
"An essential and exciting classic, expertly read."
It was a dark and stormy night when Mary Crane glimpsed the unlit neon sign announcing the vacancy at the Bates Motel. Exhausted, lost, and at the end of her rope, she was eager for a hot shower and a bed for the night. Her room was musty, but clean, and the manager seemed nice, if a little odd.
Cormac McCarthy, best-selling author of National Book Award winner All the Pretty Horses, delivers his first new novel in seven years. Written in muscular prose, No Country for Old Men is a powerful tale of the West that moves at a blistering pace.
"film success maybe, listen carefully!"
In this 1962 classic, a novelistic exploration of modern crime and punishment, Alex is the 15-year-old leader of his gang of "droogs" thriving in the ultraviolent future as prophetically imagined by Burgess. Speaking a bizarre Russian-derived slang, Alex and his friends freely pillage and slash their way across a nightmarish urban landscape until Alex is captured by the judicial arm of the state. He then becomes their prized guinea pig in a scientific program to completely "redeem" him for society.
"Real Horrorshow."
This is the disturbing tale of the dual personality of Dr. Jekyll, a physician. A generous and philanthropic man, he is preoccupied with the problems of good and evil and with the possibility of separating them into distinct personalities. He develops a drug that transforms him into the demonic Mr. Hyde, in whose person he exhausts all the latent evil in his nature.
"Martin Jarvis triumphs again!"
Lucy has stumbled upon a marvellous land of fauns and centaurs, nymphs and talking animals. But soon she discovers that it is ruled by the cruel White Witch, and can only be freed by Aslan, the great Lion, and four children.
"A little dull"
When Mr. Earnshaw brings a black-haired foundling child into his home on the Yorkshire moors, he little imagines the dramatic events which will follow. The passionate relationship between Cathy Earnshaw and the foundling, Heathcliff, is a story of love, hate, pity, and retribution, the effects of which reverberate throughout the succeeding generations.
"A near perfect Reading."
Penguin presents Roald Dahl's Matilda, read by multi-award-winning actress Kate Winslet. Matilda Wormwood is an extraordinary genius with really stupid parents. Miss Trunchbull is her terrifying headmistress who thinks all her pupils are rotten little stinkers. But Matilda will show these horrible grown-ups that even though she's only small, she's got some very powerful tricks up her sleeve....
Danny is only five years old, but in the words of old Mr Hallorann he is a 'shiner', aglow with psychic voltage. When his father becomes caretaker of the Overlook Hotel, Danny's visions grow out of control. As winter closes in and blizzards cut them off, the hotel seems to develop a life of its own. It is meant to be empty. So who is the lady in Room 217, and who are the masked guests going up and down in the elevator? And why do the hedges shaped like animals seem so alive?
"A classic horror novel"
Edward Frederic Benson (1867 - 1940) was an English novelist, biographer, memoirist, archaeologist and short story writer, best known as the true master of the gothic occult story. Gavon's Eve is a terrifying story of mysterious occult devil worship and witchcraft which pervades a remote rural district in Great Britain.
William Le Queux (1864 - 1927) was an Anglo-French journalist and writer, diplomat, traveller, flying buff and wireless pioneer who broadcast music from his own station long before radio was generally available. He was phenomenally successful as a novelist and short story writer, and many of his tales are based on his own exploits, albeit vastly exaggerated.
"The Monkey's Paw" is a supernatural short story by author W. W. Jacobs first published in England in 1902. Three wishes are granted to the owner of the monkey's paw, but the wishes come with an enormous price for interfering with fate.
In the 1800's an author that was simply known as A.L.O.E (A Lady of England) was well-loved and a best-selling author. This is story of shipwreck, adventure, and redemption. Everything hinges on the trustworthiness of young Reginald. A short story for all ages that should leave you smiling and longing for someone like Reginald that you could claim as a friend. Narrated by Glenn Hascall.
A researcher goes on an expedition to find "The Tablets of the Gods" which have plagued his dreams since his boyhood. He finds them, and the horrible truth of humanity's true purpose in the universe. This story, The Man Who Found Out is an example to me of pure cosmic horror in that the horror comes totally from knowledge which is (in-story) so terrible that it forever blights the minds of anyone who discovers it.
Rape of the Fair Country follows its hero Iestyn Mortimer from boyhood to manhood, through the turbulent times of the Industrial Revolution and the Chartist Revolt against the ironmasters and a government that supported them. It is a story of love, of loss, of battle and of honour, set in the plundered valleys of South Wales.
The story of Peter Pan, retold by Daniel O'Connor from the fairy play by Sir J. M. Barrie. O'Connor took the story from the original play, with the approval of Barrie, and shortened it into a book. This shorter story was published before Barrie wrote the longer novel Peter and Wendy, using the same plot and characters.
Legends tell of an unknown, hidden country where King Solomon's treasure is secreted. Many have searched for Solomon's diamonds and have never returned from their mysterious journey. Sir Henry Curtis' brother was lost on just such an adventure. Now, with a secret map, a regal guide, and the aid of Allan Quatermain, the renowned safari hunter, a group of three Englishmen journey to a secret land of witch doctors, warriors, and ancient mysteries.
Alice sees the other side of the Looking Glass, and enters another world of whimsical enchantment. She encounters argumentative chessmen, Jabberwocky monsters, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, and some very insolent flowers. Carroll continues the development of his Wonderland in this second, and many feel richer, adventure of Alice.
This short poem should be required listening between father and son. Here are profound bits of wisdom and common sense that can help any young boy strive to be more of a man. Reimagined here as something akin to cowboy poetry, the poem is performed by Glenn Hascall.
Nayland Smith and Dr. Petrie's underground war against the nefarious genius of Dr. Fu-Manchu continues in this, the second in the Fu-Manchu series by Sax Rohmer. Join in the adventure of kidnappings, poisonous cats, a haunted house, rat torture, mummy attacks and more!
Bradbury's Mars is a place of hope, dreams, and metaphor - of crystal pillars and fossil seas - where a fine dust settles on the great, empty cities of a silently destroyed civilization. It is here the invaders have come to despoil and commercialize, to grow and to learn - first a trickle, then a torrent, rushing from a world with no future toward a promise of tomorrow. The Earthman conquers Mars...and then is conquered by it, lulled by dangerous lies of comfort and familiarity, and enchanted by the lingering glamour of an ancient, mysterious native race.
Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family."
The Inimitable Jeeves, sees the welcomed return of the loveable fop Bertie Wooster and his ever faithful valet Jeeves. This second book in the Jeeves series follows our favorite English toff as he gets himself into more tricky situations, usually trying to assist his old school friend Bingo Little in his ongoing quest for love.
"Gentlemen, I am here to represent the interest of Henry Bank & Trust. We would like to resolve the situation quickly and quietly, so that all the investors can move forward with a minimum of anxiety. Holmes sat across from her, studying her with a nonplussed air. "I must admit; he said, that I do not know how to assist you. Inspector Lestrade was here earlier, and it appears that you are missing nothing and they have no thieves in custody. When the bank emptied today, everything was in place, except for the criminals."
Taken together, the works of H.P. Lovecraft create a terrific world of Elder Gods, ancient aliens, and cosmic horror. This new, original collection of Lovecraft's earliest stories lay the foundation for that world, and prefigure many of his later, infamous tales. In "The Nameless City", an intrepid explorer encounters a shunned, crumbling city in the desert, older than the earliest known of humankind, but perhaps not as abandoned as was thought.
A carnival rolls in sometime after the midnight hour on a chill Midwestern October eve, ushering in Halloween a week before its time. A calliope's shrill siren song beckons to all with a seductive promise of dreams and youth regained. In this season of dying, Cooger & Dark's Pandemonium Shadow Show has come to Green Town, Illinois, to destroy every life touched by its strange and sinister mystery.
An enhanced audiobook, with complete music score and extensive sound effects to add to your listening experience. The fireman had seen a skeleton, wearing a dress coat, whose head was aflame. I was deeply worried for the missing young woman. If she had been taken by the opera ghost, be he flesh or spirit, how would she fare if she rejected his 'love'? All worries were momentarily forced out of my head when a sudden squawk rang out across the opera house. I cannot believe this! Me; a suspect.
Denny was looking for amusement after a broken heart. He wasn't sure he was going to be able to find it in the bright lights and multiple diversions. While known for his humor O. Henry allows his wit to take a back seat to this short story romance that is magically set on the famed Coney Island.
Nathaniel Hawthorne's retelling of the exploits of Hercules. In search of three golden apples, Hercules encounters the Old Man of the Sea, a six-legged man creature and the mighty giant, Atlas. For all ages, not too hard for younger listeners, and not too simple for older ones. From A Wonder Book for Boys and Girls.
A Signature Performance: Leelee Sobieski's Emma is sultry but vulnerable, offering a sympathetic rendering of the heroine and her plight, allowing the listener to draw his own conclusions about Madame Bovary in this cautionary tale of love, passion, and desperation.
"Madame Bovary"
F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic American novel of the Roaring Twenties is beloved by generations of readers and stands as his crowning work. This new audio edition, authorized by the Fitzgerald estate, is narrated by Oscar-nominated actor Jake Gyllenhaal (Brokeback Mountain). Gyllenhaal's performance is a faithful delivery in the voice of Nick Carraway, the Midwesterner turned New York bond salesman, who rents a small house next door to the mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby. There, he has a firsthand view of Gatsby's lavish West Egg parties - and of his undying love....
"Wonderful Adaptation"
A Signature Performance: Four-time Emmy Award winner David Hyde Pierce delivers an air of lovable self-importance in his rendition of the classic social satire that remains as fresh today as the day it was published.
"Lively and unusual"
A Signature Performance: Elijah Wood becomes the first narrator to bring a youthful voice and energy to the story, perhaps making it the closest interpretation to Twain's original intent.
"A great adventure story"
This true modern masterpiece is built around the two fateful words that make up the title and herald the end - "Alas, Babylon." When a nuclear holocaust ravages the United States, a thousand years of civilization are stripped away overnight, and tens of millions of people are killed instantly. But for one small town in Florida, miraculously spared, the struggle is just beginning, as men and women of all backgrounds join together to confront the darkness....
"Brilliant and believable"
Goethe's masterpiece and perhaps the greatest work in German literature, Faust has made the legendary German alchemist one of the central myths of the Western world. Here indeed is a monumental Faust, an audacious man boldly wagering with the devil, Mephistopheles, that no magic, sensuality, experience or knowledge can lead him to a moment he would wish to last forever.
Once upon a time, a teenaged Kate Winslet (The Reader, Titanic, Revolutionary Road) received a gift that would leave a lasting impression: a copy of Emile Zola's classic Thérèse Raquin. Six Academy Award nominations and one Best Actress award later, she steps behind the microphone to perform this haunting classic of passion and disaster.
"gripping and vivid"
On Anarchism provides the reasoning behind Noam Chomsky's fearless lifelong questioning of the legitimacy of entrenched power. In these essays, Chomsky redeems one of the most maligned ideologies, anarchism, and places it at the foundation of his political thinking. Chomsky's anarchism is distinctly optimistic and egalitarian. Moreover, it is a living, evolving tradition that is situated in a historical lineage; Chomsky's anarchism emphasizes the power of collective, rather than individualist, action.
John Howard is determined to brighten up his old age by taking a fishing trip to France, but during his stay the Nazis invade. Howard must try to escape back to England with the two small children of some friends who are forced to stay behind in order to help the Allied war effort. As the conflict grows closer, the roads become impassable and Howard also comes across five more children who need his help. He ends up leading this motley group of youngsters through the French countryside, constantly beset by danger yet heroically protecting his charges.
"Good story"
An Oprah's Book Club Selection regarded as one of Faulkner's greatest and most accessible novels, Light in August is a timeless and riveting story of determination, tragedy, and hope. In Faulkner's iconic Yoknapatawpha County, race, sex, and religion collide around three memorable characters searching desperately for human connection and their own identities.
King Arthur was a legendary British leader of the late fifth and early sixth century who, according to the medieval histories and romances, led the defense of the Romano-Celtic British against the Saxon invaders in the early sixth century. This book gives an account of the life of this great legend of all times.
A Sicilian Romance by Ann Radcliffe is considered the pioneer of the gothic novel.
On the northern shore of Sicily, the magnificent remains of a castle, which formerly belonged to the noble house of Mazzini, can still be seen. It stands in the center of a small bay, and upon a gentle acclivity, which, on one side, slopes toward the sea, and on the other rises into an eminence crowned by dark woods....
Set amid the corrupt glamour and multiplying intrigues of Alexandria, Egypt, in the 1930s and 1940s, the novels of Durrell's Alexandria Quartet (of which this is the first) follow the shifting alliances - sexual, cultural and political - of a group of quite varied characters. In Justine, an English schoolmaster and struggling writer falls in love with a beautiful and mysterious Jewish woman who is married to a wealthy Egyptian.
A Brief Guide to the Greek Myths leads the listener through the vibrant stories of ancient Greece, from the origins of the gods through to the homecomings of the Trojan heroes. All the familiar narratives are here, along with some less familiar characters and motifs. In addition to the tales, the audiobook explains key issues arising from the narratives and discusses the myths and their wider relevance.
"Doesn't work as an audio book"
Having inspired a classic film and Broadway play, The Caine Mutiny is Herman Wouk's boldly dramatic, brilliantly entertaining novel of life-and mutiny-on a Navy warship in the Pacific theater. It was immediately embraced upon its original publication as one of the first serious works of American fiction to grapple with the moral complexities and the human consequences of the Second World War. In the intervening half century, this gripping story has become a perennial favorite, selling millions throughout the world, and claiming the Pulitzer Prize for fiction.
"a great story about life in the WWII US Navy"

::Tony picked it up slowly and turned it over in his hand. He had not seen it in a long time. The note was simple::
Dear Tony, I can't keep this anymore. It never belonged to me.
::Tony felt his stomach clench and the tears sting his eyes. He was over this. He had been over this. He clenched the ring in his fist, and headed down to the lab. When the door was closed the tears flowed freely, just between him and the machines:: Why the hell would he send this to me?! I told him to keep it! ::He grabbed a large wrench and threw it at the glass covering the suit. It put a large crack in it. He made it too strong for it to actually shatter:: I don't understand.

Forestville, MD
While many residents might go into the city for more upscale or fine dining, it would be a huge mistake to ignore the delicious offerings available right in Forestville. History and demographics mean that there is a large Southern influence at many local hotspots. Some say that the Golden Skillet serves some of the best fried chicken around. Throughout Maryland, you will find a dedicated population of crab leg connoisseurs and Forestville is no exception. Local crab foodies flock to the many seafood and crab restaurants in the area, a popular one being Mid Atlantic Seafood, which even offers an "All You Can Eat" option.
For a community of its size, religious life in Forestville is astounding. Without exception the churches are as involved in the larger community as they are in the lives of their members. One of the larger congregations in the area is the Forestville Redeemer Baptist Church that is housed in a modern and large building near the center of town. There is also the Mt. Calvary Catholic church, which runs a religious school for grades K-12. Another option is the Freedom Church, a nondenomenational Christian chuch, where alternative forms of devotion are encouraged, such as dance and drama.

It will be a slow motion collapse because so many academics and politicians are inexorably linked to the warming fraud. The disasters they falsely predicted will pale in comparison to the damage to the careers of these charlatans. In addition, a chunk of the public belongs to the Warming religion and won´t give up their faith without a fight. Their self esteem and personal identity is tightly linked to the cause.

Can you imagine being one of the top Meteorology Depts. in the country and having to co-exist with Michael Mann and his cheerleader Dr. Ally at Penn State? Another big mistake of Pres. Spanier I must say that our local liberal paper printed a big editorial by a skeptic and forced Ally and Mann to respond. All of them must be rushing in to defend human-caused global warming because the American Physical Society has started a true debate with a new Panel evenly represented by both sides.

Facing Today with the Book of Hebrews
- Wednesday, March 31, 2010
The author quotes Deut 32:43 from the Greek translation of the Old Testament (the Septuagint) in 5:6a. The Septuagint reads "sons of God" here, but Hebrews reads "angels." What is the difference between the "sons of God" and the "Son of God"? (Think about Week 4's study). What does this tell us about the role of the Son in the heavenly and earthly realm?
How does the Son's unique superiority affect our lives?
Continue to reflect and pray through these questions throughout your week.
The Anointed Son
Pray that God would reveal His anointed Son to you.
Read Heb 1:1-4. Reflect on 1:7-12 and answer the following questions:
The author quotes Psa 104:4 in 1:7—Read Psa 104. What does this passage tell us about angels?
The author quotes Psa 45:6-7 in 1:8—Read Psa 45. In the Old Testament, this passage was about God, but the author states that it is about the Son. The author makes God and the Son one in the same. What does this tell us about the relationship of the Son and the Father? Who is anointed in Psa 45? Who does the anointing in Psa 45?
The author quotes Psa 102:25-27 in 1:10—Read psa 102. What are the primary themes of Psa 102?
How is the Lord characterized? What does Psa 102 tell us about the roles of angels, the Son, and the Father?
Why does the author of Hebrews choose passages that emphasize the power and eternality of the Father and the Son? (Think about the type of community being addressed).
What is the message of this passage? How does the Son's anointed status affect the created order of the heavens and the earth?
Continue to reflect and pray through these questions throughout your week.
Inheritors of Salvation
Pray that God would reveal the way you can inherit salvation.
Read Heb 1:1-14. Reflect on 1:13-14 and answer the following questions:
The author quotes Psa 110:1 in 1:13—Read Psa 110. What does this passage indicate about the relationship between God the Father and the Son? Who is the psalm about (according to the psalm itself)? What themes emerge in Psa 110 that have already surfaced in Heb 1?
Reread Psa 110:4. What shift occurs between verse 4 and 5 in the psalm? How is this shift reflected in Hebrews? (Think specifically about the Son's kingship, unique relationship with God, his anointing, and his priesthood).
Who are the ministering spirits referred to in 1:14?
What are the ministering spirits sent out to do? For whose sake are the ministering spirits sent out? (Ponder what you have learned about the ministering spirits in the psalms that we have examined).
What is the difference between the ministering spirits and the Son?
How does one inherit salvation?
Continue to reflect and pray through these questions throughout your week.
What We Know Now
Pray that God would engrave the message of heb 1:1-14 on your heart.
Reread Heb 1:1-14. Reflect upon what you have learned so far.
Create a chart that shows the relationship between God the Father, the Son and the ministering spirits.
Answer the following questions:
What does 1:1-4 tell us about the Son's identity in relation to God?
Reread 1:4. Based upon 1:5-14, how is the Son superior to the angels? How is the name He has inherited more excellent than theirs?
What makes the Son unique?
How does the Son's role as co-creator, preeminent, and divinely appointed speaker on God's behalf influence our lives?
What does the author of Hebrews want us to learn?
Has the Son changed the course of history and brought perspective to suffering? In what ways has he made a seemingly distant God immanent (close to us)?
Continue to reflect and pray through these questions throughout your week.

I've got an HP 3005n which needs a new formatter board - it's sticks on startup with a memory error, but the main memory is part of the board. It's only 18 months old, but far enough out of warranty for HP to tell me to go away (which is fair enough) and want to charge me lots to fix it (They don't supply the parts to end users :( )
So can anyone help me get hold of a formatter board for this printer to I can put it back in use - it'll be a shame to have to scrap it for the sake of a circuit board - the rest of the printer is absolutely fine. Part number is Q7848-60002
I have googled, which brought up a handful of sellers selling second hand parts, but none of the UK ones I rang actually had it in stock.
