Way baby born, fed may affect future health, study finds
TORONTO -- A new study suggests the way babies are born and fed in early life affects the bacteria they carry around in their gut.
And that in turn may influence their future health, including such things as whether they will develop asthma, allergies or other medical conditions.
The study, conducted by researchers at the University of Alberta, is published in this week's issue of the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
Senior author Anita Kozyrskyj said it is important medical teams and parents understand the choices made about mode of delivery and method of feeding have an impact.
She and colleagues studied the gut microbiomes of 24 infants; that's the term for the diverse collection of bacteria people carry in their intestinal tracts.
They found distinct differences in the numbers and types of bacteria present when they compared babies born by caesarean section to those born by vaginal birth, as well as babies breastfed and fed with formula.
"There are a lot of things we don't know about the impact of health-care interventions such as caesarean section delivery on the developing infant," said Kozyrskyj. "To date, most of the evidence informing physicians and I guess families too is focused on the mother," said Kozyrskyj, who is a research chair and associate professor in the department of pediatrics at the University of Alberta.
It's long been known people carry an enormous number of bacteria in and on their bodies, most of which are benign or even helpful. For instance, friendly bacteria in the gut help protect against invaders that are ingested with contaminated food and could cause illness.
It's said bacteria in the gut outnumber the cells in the respiratory tract by a ratio of 10 to one.
In recent years, though, it has become increasingly clear the wrong balance of bacteria can have negative health implications.
Kozyrskyj and colleagues used a DNA sequencing technique to identify the bacteria in 24 babies' guts by studying a stool sample from each. The samples were taken when the babies were four months old.
They found a greater variety of bacteria in the children born vaginally as compared to those that were born by planned C-section -- though babies born by emergency C-section had an even higher variety of bacteria than those born vaginally. Infants who were exclusively breastfed had a less varied collection of gut bacteria than those who were bottle fed. But in this case, more isn't necessarily better, Kozyrskyj said. Some of the bacteria found in the stools of bottle-fed babies were the types that could cause illness, such as Clostridium difficile, which can cause diarrhea.

Another new leak from the upcoming album Amazin' from Trina. This track leaked unfinished a little while ago, but now we have the fully mastered version here tonight. Should be interesting to see how Trina's core fan base feels about this one.

After visiting a dentist in the area, I saw Kitchen Kura and decided to give it a try. The interior feels very homey and what you'd imagine a small town restaurant in Japan would be like. The lunch menu is very simple with maybe 15 items, all with photos to make your choices easy. For $6.70 you get to pick two main entree items and also get a heaping pile of rice and a fresh garden salad. Talk about value. The food ... view moreWas this review helpful?Yes No|Flag Abuse

This review is from: G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-6400CL5D-4GBNT
Pros: GSkill Quality. Performs as good or better than higher priced brands. This isn't "budget" RAM, even if the price is lower.
Well packaged.
GSkill Lifetime Warranty & Dedication to Customer Service.
Cons: My PC didn't ship with it pre-installed.
GSkill doesn't manufacture SSD's.
They're no longer $30 per set as in 2011.
These aren't really cons, but all would be great to have.
Other Thoughts: GSkill, as I stated above, has outstanding, high quality RAM, and has been my "go to" source for RAM since 2011 (an 8GB set for $30 was the kickoff), this makes my 4th set purchased. Not one bad stick have I had, no problems, and if there were, I have no doubt that GSkill will make things right.
My personal opinion, GSkill is an underappreciated brand, many times overshadowed by bigger names. However, no doubt, the GSkill name is now growing and more customers knows of the company than when I first discovered the brand in 2011. The price may be lower than others, but the quality is every bit as good as any other RAM manufacturer. They skimp on nothing, even the packaging. In fact, I've seen other brands packaged sloppier & with the potential for damage in transit.
GSkill is the only brand I recommend today, I once had a prior favorite, but the folks there let me down. I don't believe the ones at GSkill will do the same. Anytime I see a negative review, the GSkill staff seems to be rushing to be the first to post an answer, and those are the things I like to see. A company who cares about customer service.
That's a trait that few companies has today. I'm happy to have GSkill as an upgrade partner for my RAM needs.
And as always, one of my eggs are for the folks at Newegg, whom continues to have the best selection for every need, regardless of budget. The Newegg Family works as hard as any distributor to keep their customers happy. Sometimes, we may not like the shipping, but hey, there's options to get it to us fast when in dire need. Few companies offers Free Ship anymore, and most that does, has a catch.
Newegg is my #1 trusted source for PC components.
This review is from: Crucial M550 CT256M550SSD3 mSATA 256GB Mini-SATA (mSATA) MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Pros: Full Retail Package, screws included (many doesn't include screws).
Fast SSD, boots Windows 8 in seconds, Fast at everything I do. Easy to install, provided access to port is quick. No cables needed, not causing any clutter.
Using the benchmarking tool of a major brand SSD, this mSATA SSD actually edged out a new Pro brand of that drive installed the day before, in all but random writes. It was close in the other categories, but still the M550 was the winner. That's amazing in itself.
Cons: Will likely run warmer in PC's when installed under GPU. This isn't the fault of Newegg or Crucial, but it needs to be known, if this is going to be the case. How much that will affect longevity of the SSD will be determined.
However, it's well known that "Heat is the bane of electronics". Something to keep in mind. Speccy reports this drive's temps at 39C as I'm typing this post, my other 2.5" SSD is running at 29C. Yes, that's a difference.
In tight areas, it's best to place the screws in the holes before carefully placing in computer, then thread each a few turns to ensure that both are secured. Not really a con, but it's more noticed here. It's often hard to get screws in these tight spots after installing the drive.
Other Thoughts: This was a compromise purchase, wanted a PCIe SSD, but only had one PCIe slot & my GPU was using that. There was what appeared to be a x4 slot on MB, but actually that was in size only, it was a x1. So I was left with the alternative choice.
Being there was a mSATA port on my Dell XPS 8700 & I had a bit of extra cash to spend, decided to try it. By the time the 3 year warranty is up, something better & faster will be out anyway. Never fails.
Some would say that this is better for a notebook, but keep in mind that temps in these are higher than a PC in many instances. It will be more important than ever to regularly clean the notebook good after install.
I spoke of the 10C difference in temps in "Cons", will purchase an additional fan to address the issue. Both the GPU & this SSD will likely benefit from an extra fan.
Overall, I'm satisfied with this purchase, it's faster than a very popular 2.5" SSD of it's same range in GB's.
This review is from: ASUS 24X DVD Burner - Bulk 24X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 12X DVD+R DL 24X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 32X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM Black SATA Model DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS
Pros: Easy to install, no documentation or drivers, however this was an OEM product.
Burns at many different DVD/CD speeds & is very quiet is doing so.
Has lasted nearly 2 years.
Cons: What's that?
Other Thoughts: Bought this to upgrade a Dell Dimension 2400 to SATA drives, this hooked right up to the Rosewill RC-212 SATA card & I was able (on XP Pro SP3) to burn DVD's.
Later on moved it to another PC, which has since died, it's awaiting it's next home.
If one can still get this today at a reasonable price, do do, it's withstood the test of time by far.

- Last week Andy had business in Orlando, so I joined him afterward and we spent the weekend at Disney World and Universal Orlando as a honeymoon of sorts. We had done Disney years earlier — our first trip together as a couple, in fact — but Universal was new to us. I was very excited for the Harry Potter stuff, and it did not disappoint. Hogwarts! Gringotts! (My favorite ride, fyi.) Platform 9 ¾. Ollivander's. Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. Honeydukes. Knockturn Alley. And so much more. The details were amazing. I teared up once or twice, due both to my emotions as a fan, and to my emotions as a writer, imagining what it must be like to have a world that you created come to life so beautifully.
- In other news, I'm mad at Google Docs. (And myself.) Generally I don't trust cloud-based services for important things, only for backup or temporary transfer/storage. But in this case, I wasn't traveling with my laptop, and I had a short document to finish up and send to my agent, so I decided to work on my iPad mini. Using the Google Docs app was actually quite pleasant. Even Track Changes functioned nicely! But I was in offline-mode for most of the time, and when I reconnected to the internet, half my work disappeared. (Like, the document synced backward to an older version.) I'm sure this is a rarity, but once you've been burned, you don't play with fire again. No more working in the cloud for me.
- I blazed through Season 2 of Longmire. I wasn't even sure I would watch it, since I was lukewarm on Season 1, but it just kept getting better. Maybe because the characters have all been established, so now we can really mess things up for them. (Hah.) The relationship between Walt and Branch is probably the most compelling for me, because it's so complicated and nuanced. It's like a coin spinning on its edge, and you're just wondering which face it's going to stop and fall on: healthy and respectful, or ugly and destructive. Unfortunately I have to wait to find out, because Netflix doesn't have Season 3 yet. Plus, the fate of future seasons of Longmire still hangs in the balance. (I suppose I could read the books.)I also appreciate the stalker subplot, because it highlights the problem of how crimes like that are policed (or rather, not policed), and it shows how even a mentally and physically tough woman like Vic can be made to feel small and scared.
Week in review
Week in review
I'm a big fan of bullet points lately, so this might become a more regular thing. (Or not. Who knows.)
- Every fall, Andy and I play in a flag football league with our friends. Usually we aren't very good and it's just about having fun. This year we were the #1 team on Wednesday nights! (But we lost in the playoffs. Womp womp.)
- Now that the dust has settled from our month-long, multi-city wedding tour, I finally had time to go through the disaster zone that was our guest room. I had stashed anything and everything in there, including presents, decorations, and weeks' worth of mail. It kills me to have clutter — but I'm trying to learn to let that go sometimes, especially when other things should take priority (such as getting married, or writing a book). Anyway, I now have a nice neat catalog of who gave us what. Thank you notes (and hand cramps) can now commence.
- After seeing dozens of people from all spheres of my life talking about it, I finally started listening to the Serial podcast. Very well-made and compelling. I keep flip-flopping on whodunit — and more importantly, I keep contemplating big human themes like how truthful memory is, how much we can know the people we love, and whether there is the capacity for darkness inside each of us.
- If you follow me on Twitter, then you probably already know that I've been catching up on Gilmore Girls on Netflix. Back during its original run, I stopped watching sometime after Jess showed up, but before Rory went to college. True, that means I caught the good years, but still, I'm glad to finally know the whole story. The best part was, without question, the relationship between the Gilmore Girls — Lorelai and Rory, as well as Lorelai and Emily. There was so much mother-daughter goodness (and sadness) to savor. It also made me reflect upon my own mother-daughter relationship, and the one(s) I someday hope to have.
Strike while the iron's hot
I think it's kind of funny that I can spend months (even years) drafting, fleshing out, and revising a single novel-length story idea — yet for quick little blog posts, if I don't get it down right away, odds are, I'm never coming back to it.
*selects all Drafts, moves to Trash*
Soooo, what should we talk about?
Just for fun, here are a few of the things that I had intended to discuss but have now lost the urgency to compose roughly 500 words about:
- The adorably melodramatic Korean drama Boys Over Flowers. With a tie-in to S.E. Sinkhorn's post about enjoying problematic media.
- The crap finale of How I Met Your Mother.
- A happy update about the crap finale of HIMYM: They re-edited the ending, and the better version is available on DVD/Blu-Ray. (Also it was leaked online for a while, and I loved it.)
- The awesomeness of BBC's Sherlock. Tentative post title: "Bromance with brains."
- Dawson's Creek, with its John Green-esque dialogue, and how I connect with Dawson's character (naive, optimistic, single-mindedly passionate about his art) but also with Joey (nerdy, inexperience, brunette, tomboy, crushing on the best friend she grew up with).
- How I've always processed life by writing about it. For kicks, I had planned to include one of the letters I wrote as a kid to my parents when I was very upset about something. The little hearts over the i's really meant business.
You don't have to be flashy to shine
Several weeks ago, Andy and I had the pleasure of seeing Sara Bareilles in concert. I confess, I'm not always one for live performances, because I dislike sharing the experience with a crowded mass of drunken boors and flash-happy tweens. Fortunately, Sara's fans were a calm, courteous lot, and so I was able to enjoy her tremendous vocal talent, along with her clever, heartfelt lyrics.
To be honest, she didn't "work the crowd" the same way I've seen Ed Sheeran or the Spice Girls do. But Sara engaged us by being a storyteller. She shared the inspiration behind her songs. She revealed personal triumphs, struggles, and future aspirations. She took us back to her roots with a special a capella performance. She even gave us a sneak peek of her work-in-progress.
(Did you know that she's doing a musical adaptation of Waitress? OK, I know nothing about the movie besides what Sara told us, but her song "She Was Mine" was soooo good.)
Moved by her artistry, I shed a few tears during the concert, and at the end of the night, I walked away with a feeling of warmth and genuineness. From Sara, and from her music. I was reminded that you don't have to be flashy to shine. Find your passion and share it with the world. Focus on what you're good at. Connect with others, heart to heart. That is so much more than enough.
Just for fun, here's a brief clip of Sara singing one of my favorites, "Gravity":
Ice cream in Nashville
Dark night, bright parlor, long line. I step in and take my place behind all the couples and families. I am the only one here alone.
Flavors are handwritten on a chalkboard behind the counter. I scan the list, pick two I want to try, and then settle in for the wait. My hands are too full to check email, Twitter, or Facebook, like everyone else is doing. So I default to people-watching and eavesdropping. Common pastimes for a writer.
The girls behind me are trying water yoga tomorrow. One of them can't swim. Another one is named Avery, and she has the best hair. Wavy and blonde, with a braid framing one side. All of them are stylish and thin, somehow managing to look both hipster and preppy at the same time.
There are a lot of maxi dresses in here.
It's been a long day, but I'm avoiding my hotel room. I'd thought it would be wonderful to have a clean, quiet space to myself. Somewhere new but predictable. Somewhere without responsibilities.
Instead it feels lonely.
After checking in, I escaped to dinner. I chose a place that I had been to once before, years ago, with people I loved. But even the memories of them aren't enough to keep me company tonight. I text one and call the other. It helps.
Finally it's my turn, and I ask for wildberry lavender and "Buckeye State." I like complementing fruity flavors with chocolate. When the cashier hands me the receipt, I accidentally sign in the wrong place. I feel like an idiot, but she just laughs. It's a good reminder to find the humor in things.

The 84th Annual Academy Award nominations were announced Tuesday morning with some surprising nominees – but not all of this year's favorite big screen performances and films were honored with a nomination.
Martin Scorsese's "Hugo" surprising led the nominations with 11, edging out silent film "The Artist" for most nods, which earned an equally impressive 10 nominations.
Demian Bichir, who might be best known for his role on Showtime's "Weeds" where he played the father Mary-Louise Parker's baby, is up against Hollywood heavyweights like Brad Pitt and George Clooney in the Best Actor race for his work in "A Better Life."
Another surprise was the love the Academy gave "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close" — Tom Hanks and Sandra Bullock's post 9/11 drama, which has polarized audiences and critics. The movie scored a Best Picture nomination and a Best Supporting Actor nod for Max von Sydow.
"Bridesmaids" star Melissa McCarthy was a nice surprise nomination in the Best Supporting Actress category for her hilarious performance in the breakout comedy. Co-star Kristen Wiig and writer Annie Mumolo also earned a nomination for Best Original Screenplay for raucous box office hit.
And then there are the stars whose phones did not ring with good news this morning.
Despite his powerful performance – and nod of approval from George Clooney at the Golden Globes – Michael Fassbender was shut out for his role in "Shame."
Ryan Gosling who went into award season with major buzz for three films – "Drive," "The Ides of March," and "Crazy Stupid Love" was also snubbed.
Other acting snubs included Leonardo DiCaprio for "J. Edgar," Albert Brooks for "Drive," Tilda Swinton in "We Need To Talk About Kevin," Charlize Theron for "Young Adult," and young star Shailene Woodley, who many thought would earn a nomination for her work as George Clooney's daughter in "The Descendants."
The snubs continued with Steven Spielberg who failed to earn a Best Director nomination, even though "War Horse" was honored with a nod for Best Picture. The Hollywood veteran did earn a nod for producing "War Horse."
A surprise snub came in the Best Animated Feature category for "The Adventures of Tintin," which took home the Golden Globe in the same category, but failed to get any Oscar love.
And there won't be any musical catfights on Oscar night between Elton John and Madonna (or Elton's partner David Furnish), who were shut out of the Best Song category.
For a complete list of this year's nominees, CLICK HERE!
Find out who will take home Oscar gold on February 26, with host Billy Crystal, live on ABC at 7 PM ET/4 PM PT.

Steifey, St. Joseph, Mich., assignors to Whirlpool Corporation, Benton Harbor, Mich.
Filed May 8, 1970, Ser. No. 35,609 Int. Cl. F26b 19/00 US. CI. 3448 6 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A control circuit for a fabric drying appliance includes a relay which is operated in response to contact closure of a heat sensitive switch to deenergize the heater and the drive motor upon detection of a temperature greater than a predetermined temperature adjacent the heater or other machine area. The relay includes contacts which close to establish a holding circuit therefor to prevent energization of the heater and drive motor upon cooling below the predetermined temperature adjacent the heater. A switch is positioned for operation by the access door of the appliance and is serially connected in the holding circuit of the relay in order to promote visual inspection upon the occurrence of an overheated condition by insuring that the access door must be opened and reclosed in order to break the holding circuit and reset the control circuit for normal operation.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION (1) Field of the invention This invention relates to a control circuit for deactivating an appliance, and more particularly to a control circuit for stopping operation of an appliance in response to an adverse condition and requiring positive manual operation by an operator to reactivate operation of the appliance.
(2) Description of the prior art Clothes drying machines and combination washingdrying machines have employed a limit and/or a safety thermostat adjacent the heater assembly or in the fan. scroll. Such a thermostat generally includes normally closed contacts in series with a heater which are operated to open the heater circuit when an excessive temperature is detected. A serious drawback resides in the fact that, upon cooling, reclosure of the thermostat contacts effects energization of the heater and the attendant further possibility of damage to the fabrics being dried.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The control circuit according to the present invention includes apparatus which is operable to deenergize an appliance in response to the occurrence of an adverse operational condition of the appliance. More particularly, a control circuit for a fabric drying appliance includes a thermostat which is positioned adjacent the heater of the appliance or in the fan scroll and which is operable in response to the detection of temperature above a predetermined value to establish an operating circuit for a relay. The relay includes contacts which are serially interposed in the operating circuit of the drive motor of the appliance, which contacts open to effect deenergization of the drive motor. The relay includes a second set of relay contacts which operate to provide a holding circuit for the relay to prevent subsequent energization of the drive motor upon cooling of the area adjacent the heater or fan scroll.
A centrifugal switch which is connected in series with the heater opens as a result of motor deenergization to insure that the heater does not become energized as the temperature adjacent the heater falls to a level at which the thermostat becomes reset.
A switch is serially connected in the holding circuit of the relay for resetting the control circuit for normal operation. Advantageously this switch is operated by the access door of the appliance. The control circuit according to the invention therefore makes it necessary for the operator of the fabric drying appliance to open and close the access door in order to re-energize the appliance following detection of a temperature above the predetermined level. This advantageously aifords the operator the opportunity to inspect, and promotes the inspection of, the contents of the drying appliance for damage and/or obstructions.
The control circuit according to the present invention will stop all machine operations and render the machine completely inoperative rather than merely deenergizing the heating means in the event of detection of excess temperatures, thereby assuring that the fabrics being dried within the machine will receive no further damage.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Other objects, features and advantages of the invention, its orginization, construction and operation will be best understood by reference to the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment thereof taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a rear elevational view of a laundry drying appliance illustrated with the back panel thereof removed;
FIG. 2 is a schematic circuit diagram of a control circuit for use with the appliance illustrated in FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is a graphic illustration relating switch closings of a control circuit with cycles of the timer of the control circuit of FIG. 2.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In FIG. 1 of the drawing a clothes drying appliance 10 is illustrated as generally comprising a cabinet 11 having a control console 12 carried thereon and housing a selectively settable timer 13.
The appliance further comprises a heat treating zone in the form of a rotatably mounted drum 20 to which access is provided from the front of the machine through an access door 19.
At the back of the cabinet 11 there is provided a heater duct 21 having a heater 22 mounted therein. The heater duct 21 communicates with the interior of the drum 20 by way of an air inlet 23 to provide a flow of heated air to the interior of the drum.
Also provided at the back of the cabinet 11 is an exhaust duct 24 leading from an exhaust opening 25 to provide a flow of exhaust air from the interior of the drum 20 through a lint screen 26 to an exhaust opening 48 at the rear of the appliance. Air is exhausted from the drum 20 with the aid of a fan (not shown) at reference 27 which is driven by a drive motor 28. The drum 20 is adapted to be rotated by means of a belt 33 which is also driven by the drive motor 28.
A limit thermostat 29 is provided on the heater duct 21 in order to sense the temperature adjacent the heater 22. Also, a control thermostat 34 is provided adjacent the outlet of the fan so as to be responsive to the temperature of the air being exhausted from the appliance 10. FIG. 2 illustrates a control circuit for the appliance 10. Inasmuch as the appliance in this particular embodiment is an electrically heated machine, a threewire electrical supply is employed as indicated by the input terminals L1, L2 and N.
The heater 22 is connected between the terminal L1 and the terminal L2 by way of appropriate control circuitry while the drive motor 28 and the timer 13 are connected between the terminal L1 and the terminal N.
More specifically, the drive motor 28' is connected between the terminals L1 and N in series with a door operated switch 37 having a movable contact 38 and the stationary contact 3 9, a movable contact 15 and a stationary contact 17 of the timer 1'3 and a movable contact 44 and a stationary contact 47 of relay 43. The timer 13 includes a timer motor 14 which is likewise connected between the terminals L1 and N in that it is connected in shunt relation to the drive motor 28.
The heater 22 is connected between the terminals L1 and L2 in series with the door switch 37, a movable contact 16 and a stationary contact 18 of the timer 13, a movable contact 30 and a stationary contact 31 of the limit thermostat 29;, a movable contact 35 and a stationary contact 36 of the exhaust control thermostat 34, and a movable contact 41 and a stationary contact 42 of a centrifugal switch 40. The centrifugal switch 40 is associated with the drive motor 28 and is closed when the drive motor 28 is turning at speeds above a predetermined speed.
The safety or limit thermostat 29 is provided with an additional normally open contact 32. The contact 32 is connected to one side of the relay coil 43, the other side of which is connected to the terminal N. Relay coil 43 controls the position of a movable contact 45 to engage and disengage a stationary contact 46, and controls movement of the movable contact 44 for engagement and disengagement with the stationary contact 47.
In particular, the normally open relay contacts 45, 46 are operable to connect the relay coil 43 to the terminal L1 by way of door switch 37 to provide a holding circuit for the relay coil 43, while the normally closed relay contacts 44, 47 are operable to interrupt the powering circuits for the drive motor 28 and the timer motor 14.
In operation, when the machine operator sets the timer 13 to the beginning of the normal or air only drying cycle (FIG. 3) the timer contacts 15, 17 are closed, and the timer contacts 16, 18 are also closed if the normal cycle has been selected. lWith the door 19 closed, the contacts 38, 39 of the door switch 37 are closed and the drive motor 28 and the timer motor 14 are energized over the previously traced circuits extending between the terminals L1 and N. As soon as the drive motor 28 attains normal speed, the centrifugal switch 40 operates to close its contacts 41, 42 and the heater 22 is energized by way of the door switch 37, the timer contacts 16, 18, the thermostat 29 the thermostat 34 and the centrifugal wsitch 40.
The exhaust thermostat 34 holds the temperature within the drum to a predetermined maximum level by deenergizing the heater 22 when excessive temperatures are detected at the outlet of the fan.
After the time selected by the operator for the particular cycle has elapsed, the timer contact '16 disengages from the timer contact 18- to open the circuit to the heater 22, thereby deenergizing the heater. The timer contacts 15, 17, however, remain closed for an additional interval, for example five minutes, to tumble fabrics in the drum 20 in a cool air stream to lower their temperature so as to preclude the formation of deep-set wrinkles.
In the event that the temperature in the heater duct 21 reaches the point in. excess of a predetermined temperature, the limit thermostat 29 operates to disengage its movable contact 30 from the stationary contact 31 and engage the movable contact 30 with the stationary contact 32. This transfer can be caused by a number of conditions, such as a blocked lint screen or a blocked air inlet, or, in an extreme circumstance, a fire within the drum 20. The transfer operation of the limit switch 29 energizes the relay coil 43 over a path including the movable contact 130, and stationary contact 32 of limit thermostat 29.
Energization of the relay winding 43 causes the normally open relay contacts 45, 46 to close providing a holding circuit for the relay winding 43'. In addition, the normally closed relay contacts 44., 47 open to deenergize the drive motor 28 and the timer motor 14. Denergization of the drive motor 28 causes the centrifugal switch contacts 41, 42 to open, thereby assuring continued deenergization of the heater 22 even if the limit thermostat 29 retransfers to the condition wherein the contacts 30' and 31 thereof are closed.
Attention is invited to the fact that the holding circuit for the relay winding 43 is provided independently of any timer operated contacts; therefore, it will be noted that the door switch 37 must be opened in order to deenergize the relay winding 43. Thus, in order for the operator to restart the machine, it is necessary for her to first open and then close the access door 19, which will in turn open and close the contacts 38, 39 of the door switch 37.
Inasmuch as it is necessary for the operator to open and close the access door 19 in order to restart the machine, the operator will be immediately apprized of any serious condition causing the limit thermostat 29 to operate, such as a drum fire or a blocked air passageway. This provides the attendant advantage that the fabrics being dried in the machine will not suifer continued damage.
While the operation of the control circuit according to the invention has been described in combination with an electrically heated drying appliance, it is to be understood that the control circuit has equal utility in conjunction with gas heated drying appliances.
Many changes and modifications of the invention may become apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, and it is to be understood that we wish to include within the patent warranted hereon all such changes and modifications as may be reasonably and properly included within the scope of the appended claims.

Dallas Cowboys Rumors: Team Can't Overpay for Jared Allen
After the dust settled for DeMarcus Ware and Julius Peppers, the Dallas Cowboys now reportedly have a visit scheduled with Jared Allen, the "other" premiere pass rusher in the 2014 NFL free agency class. Dallas cut Ware and couldn't land Peppers because both players required too much money, of which the Cowboys don't have much these days due to their rough salary cap situation. Still, they're considered a "wild card" in the Allen sweepstakes, but overpaying for a 31-year-old pass rusher wouldn't be a smart move by Dallas.
Landing Allen to a reasonable contract would be huge for the Cowboys, but it's unlikely because the five-time Pro Bowler has made it clear he's out for a solid payday from a contender. Put simply, Dallas can't offer him the payday and is a far cry from a contender, so why would Allen consider playing there?
Let's clear something up right off the bat: Allen is not from Dallas; he was born there, but raised in California. If you were born in New York, but raised in Miami, you're probably not a Jets fan. Thus, assuming Allen wants to play in Dallas because it's "home" is ignorant.
With that out of the way, let's look at how Allen would fit in with the Cowboys, assuming a "fair deal" could be met and assuming he considers the Cowboys "contenders," which are both unlikely. Allen is on the wrong side of 30, but he's recorded at least 11 sacks in the past seven seasons, dating back to his final season with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2007.
In fact, he's tallied at least 11 sacks in eight of his 10 pro seasons, including 22 in 2011 — half a sack shy of the "official" NFL single-season record. That's nothing at which to scoff and he would almost certainly be a perfect fit for the Cowboys' defensive line, which has been left in shambles via free agency, although it was pretty bad in 2013 with all the players intact.
In Rod Marinelli's 4-3 defense, Allen could be a playmaker as he has been in that scheme for the past decade and a positive influence on all the Cowboys' young pass rushers who will see a lot more playing time this year by process of elimination. Put simply, signing Allen would be huge for Dallas, but only if he came at a bargain price, which is unlikely.

NORTH BAY – The Young Professionals (YP) from the North Bay Chamber of Commerce tried their hand at learning the fine art of knitting recently.
"We always get together once a month, usually at a Chamber member restaurant, but we've decided to try and do more integrating with activities," said YP Chair Mandy Strang.
The after work event featured catered food catered and knitting instruction by Rae Brenne with all of the YPs present saying they benefited from an evening of learning the real benefits were given to Operation Warmth.
All of the knitted projects that resulted from the evening are being donated to this local charity run from the Redeemer Lutheran Church on Ferguson Street.
For Jake Lacourse of the Clarion Resort the evening rekindled lessons learned at his grandmother's knee.
"My grandmother taught me to knit when I was little, around three or four I think," he said. "If I wanted mitts or a scarf I was expected to knit it myself. I'd start a project when I was with her, and she expected me to keep at it when I went home," Lacourse said. "I was expected to come back and show her what I had done."
"It's an evening where people can learn or expand on knitting skills and donate to a worthy cause as well," said Brenne, who donated the yarn for the knitted creations, which trended to cowls and scarves.
There are around 60 members in the Chamber's YP group, which was recently ranked one of the top two programs in Canada by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce at the AGM in Quebec.
The Chamber created the young professional membership in order to connect with young business people in the community.
"Two percent of small and medium enterprise business owners are under the age of 30," said Strang a graphic designer in the family business X-height Graphics. "This group is a way to become involved in the community and in the Chamber of Commerce. It's a source of communication and connection."
Joanna Sanchez, an engineer with Union Gas has been a YP member for just over a year. "It's a great way to meet people, to share business ideas, concepts and problem solving and get involved in the community. I would recommend it to any younger professionals in the area."
The YP program offers business professionals under 30 years of age a special membership rate in the Chamber of Commerce, yet they still receive all the benefits and regular member services.
The North Bay Chamber of Commerce recognizes that it can't be the voice of business unless it speaks on behalf of all businesses including those run by young professionals, says chamber executive assistant Sue Adams. "These members are an important part of the business community in the North Bay area."

OLED seems to be the perfect technology for all types of displays, but it also has some problems:
Lifetime - While red and green OLED films have longer lifetimes (46,000 to 230,000 hours), blue organics currently have much shorter lifetimes (up to around 14,000 hours[source: OLED-Info.com]).
Manufacturing - Manufacturing processes are expensive right now.
Water - Water can easily damage OLEDs.

"I really think the trend should be upwards in the long term"
Pipeline going through and world economy is weak.
This is a serious question. If you don't a a REASON you think it's going higher, then it's just a guess.
You're quite right (and I can't believe somebody down-voted you!) but that's why I shake my head when I read about people trading options on USO - sorta futures on futures. I guess there's a way to get MORE uncertainty, but I'm not exactly sure how!
The price of oil is about the world economy long term, not "some leader's" gastrointestinal track.
I recommend a look a a three month chart ... or six months ... or a year.
You're going to need at least another buck up to know if this trend is broken. Rottsa ruck.
Agree. It's called "catching a falling knife".
It depends on your risk tolerance. If you're wrong, you lose twice as fast. I trade SCO on the short side, but I can tolerate the risk. Not every investor/trader can.
NOT if the world economy stays soft unless supply is severely limited. That's what you don't get.
Don't then. Are you PO'd at me or at yourself for being long and losing all that money, rob? Read my back posts because I have been calling short SINCE SEPTEMBER, and SCO, which I trade is up 40%. That's not "taking advice from strangers" - that's a TRACK RECORD of being RIGHT on oil and what controls the price. You seem really angry, rob. I guess I would be too if I lost all that money! LOL!!!
Supply and the economy will determine the price. Read my post history.
Longer term when the world economy turns.
Y'all should have been reading my posts. Not too late. Click on the highlighted "ecgberht", go back in the list to August and read going forward.
That is why Colonel Klink ... I mean Klain (an attorney) was hired by the gov't and why there was no hurry to get him on board to "organize" all those government offices workin' on Ebola. He's there for one reason and one reason only; to deal with any lawsuits against the FG.
Bears win again. And look at VOLUME. More than 3 times normal. SCO (which I trade) double.
To all you oil bulls, papa bear is still winning today. You should have been following my posts. Sorry.
Hope you took some profits yesterday! LOL!!!
Have you been reading my posts? I am long SCO and have said so.
Sorry, every. The FED is keeping rates low because they know the economy is weak. But that lets Obama crow about "how great the stock market is doing" (which only makes the rich richer). If they let rates rise which is what reality needs, the market would drop. Instead, the spring coils even tighter.
Read my posts in this space, every. This is about the economy.
Didn't have to be. See my post from 9/23, repeated on 9/30. I am long SCO, so this is double-good for my wallet.
Off the ledge?
Sold about 20% of my SCO this AM at very near the high. Never look a gift profit in the mouth. The rest rides the trend.

About this design:
One box I inherited from my friend Nancy was marked "Blue Pietersite". Inside, I found this fabulous stone already glued to brown felt, plus a box of mixed beads, silver-blue fw pearls, and what looked to me like other projects. I tried to imagine what she'd had in mind for the items she grouped together. This is what I came up with.
Components:Pietersite focal with natural opalescent shimmer (the colors seem to move like waves when you shift the stone to catch light differently), glass beads, freshwater pearls, gunmetal chain and clasp
Read the comments (or add your own)
Gorgeous, darling!
Stunning as usual….the focal is gorgeous!
Gorgeous Laud! That focal looks stunning! Is that St. Petersburg stitch?
Oh my, how lovely!
No, it's a plain spiral weave. I took some pictures showing it neatly laid out with the beads perfectly organized (all the transparent squares along the outside edges), but of course, the pictures didn't come out so I got frustrated and just took ones with the beads jumbled….
LOVE that St. Petersburg stitch–I'll have to learn it.
just spectacular!
Laud, that focal is gorgeous, as always your work is stunning
Wow I don't even know what to say. The focal is just beautiful. I know that it holds a special meaning for you and working on it was probably emotional. Your necklace is so lovely. I'm sure she would approve.
I'm a sucker for blues and pearls. This is gorgeous!
Wow..this is fabulous!
This is really Beautiful!!!!
Thank you all! This is the first piece I made with the stitched-on beadwork. After years of embroidery, the stitching wasn't hard, but I learned that the backing fabric and side parts of the design have to be wide to support the weight of stone focals. Oh, and I learned that it helps to check each bead to make sure it's perfectly formed (didn't do that and so got some uneven places…). I think I'm ready to attempt one of those embroidered cuffs. Wish me luck!
Beautiful workmanship to compliment a gorgeous focal! A wonderful way to keep Nancy close.
Fabulous work! I think you did your friend proud! THat is the bluest chunk of blue Pietersite I have ever seen! What a fantastic gift from your friend.
I started wondering if I'd gotten the name wrong, but I googled it and found other very blue stones. There are lots of colors, ranging from yellows to reds to brown/blacks to blues. Oh, and I learned a new word: chatoyancy, which means "an optical reflectance effect seen in certain gemstones" (Wiki). Pietersite is a type of tiger eye found only in Namibia and China.
Thanks for the lesson! I had heard chatoyancy in regards to cat's eye quartz and Seraphinite. It must be when minerals line up a certain way inside the stones. Again, this is absolutely beautiful! Wear it in remembrance and you will feel her with you. xoxo
Spectacular! The color and design are great!
Laud, this piece is truly beautiful. The focal bead is fantastic. If you use ultra suede as your backing your cab will be much better supported. Hope you do more of this design. It has a definite Wow factor!
Nanci, thanks for the tip. I have some ultrasuede and also fabric stabilizers that would be good stiffeners. This focal was already on the felt. I could have added more backings–but I didn't think of that!
Absolutely amazing Laud! Just spectacular.
This is really beautiful!! Excelent design!

Scott's move: Under consideration: A change in state law to speed foreclosures by removing the courts from the process
Progress to date: The housing market is still a mess; at the end of September, 23.5% of Florida mortgages were delinquent or in foreclosure, down only a point from the beginning of the year.
From a muni meltdown to a recovery in bank stocks to a Yahoo turnaround, we were told a bunch of things would happen this year that didn't even come close.
