A method of encapsulating radioactive waste including withdrawing radioactive liquid having a retardant therein from a source. The retardant may including borates, or other additives, which retard the setting of cements by preventing hydration at cement particles in the mix. The liquid is mixed with ordinary Portland cement and subjected to long term shear far in excess of that needed to form ordinary grout. The use of shear to overcome set retardation, and similarly, the deliberate regulation of acceleration of set in hydraulic cement pastes by the utilization of retardants plus shear produces a thixotropic paste with extreme moldability which will not bleed, and finally sets more rapidly than can be expected with normal mixing to form a very strong product.
1. A method of encapsulating radioactive waste comprising the steps of:
drawing a predetermined amount of radioactive liquid waste having a cement setting retardant therein from a source, said retardant constituting a component which variably retards set and strength development in a cement mix;
mixing said liquid waste in a high shear mixer to provide a homogeneously mixed, predetermined volume of liquid;
introducing a corresponding volume of cement into the predetermined volume of liquid to provide a cement paste;
subjecting the cement paste to high shear mixing in said mixer for a time sufficient to remove the retardant from the cement hydrating surface and until the retarding reactions have been overcome to thusly produce a thixotropic rapid setting cement.
2. The method according to claim 1 wherein the retardant constitutes borates in the liquid.
3. The method according to claim 2 including the step of charging the mixer with liquid and cement in the ratio between 0.40 and 0.55.
4. The method according to claim 3 including the step of increasing the number of shears applied to the mixture as the ratio of liquid to cement increases from 0.40 to 0.55 in mixture.
5. The method according to claim 2 including the step of mixing the cement paste for at least one-half hour to assure achieving thixotrophy and homogeneity in the mix.
6. The method according to claim 3 including the step of mixing the cement paste in a Colloidal mixer for 15�3 minutes to produce a thixopaste.
7. The method according to claim 3 including the step of mixing the cement paste in a colloidal batch mixer for about ten to thirty minutes to provide a bleedfree thixopaste.
8. The method according to claim 2 including the step of adding a bulk additive to the cement paste to decrease the number of shears to effect an increase in the attrition on cement particle surfaces and thereby accelerate the stiffening of the cement paste.
9. The method according to claim 8 including the step of adding a bulk additive in the form of ion exchange beads of the type used in nuclear reactor secondary systems.
10. The method according to claim 2 including the step of adding non-dissolvable, solid radioactive waste material to the cement mix.
The invention described herein relates to the disposal of radioactive waste and more particularly to a method of making hydraulic cement thixopastes which encapsulate the radioactive material.
The heat exchange coolant circulated through the primary and secondary loops of a nuclear reactor during the course of its operation, accumulates and carries radioactive matter which must be removed from the coolant system. This matter which constitutes harmful waste products consists of both dissolved and solid particulate material, such as that resulting from ion exchange scrubbing of waste waters, leaking fuel rods, corrosion of metallic parts, sludges from filters and evaporators, and the like, together with other dissolved impurities, all of which have been irradiated and take on radioactive characteristics.
In the past, removal of these radioactive byproducts (radwaste) from the coolant system has been effected by mechanical filters of different types, chemical precipitating agents, evaporators and demineralizers, and other means capable of capturing and retaining particles often microscopic in size. The capturing agents or mediums together with the radioactive materials which often contain boron were mixed with other more concentrated liquids or solids, such as glass, or disposed of by encapsulating the resultant product in cement or cement lined steel tanks suitably designed for long-term disposal. It has been considered that an ideal method of encapsulating these materials together with other radioactive wastes from laboratories, field operations, and the like, was to mix them with cement and store the cement-waste product in oil drums of 55 gallon capacity. However, attempts to encapsulate the borated waste coolant from light water reactors in hydraulic cements have presented problems associated with variable retardation of set in in the cement mixture, segregation of material within the encapsulation container and the formation or release of free liquid in the form of bleed water.
The borates present in the waste coolant retard the setting of cements by forming calcium borates on the hydrating surface of the cement particles, thereby blocking calcium silicate hydration and the double salt formation reaction between sulphate and aluminates. As a result of the unwanted precipitation reaction, there is a delay in the setting time and a retardation in the rate of strength development, together with the segregation of liquid from the paste as sedimentation takes place under the influence of gravity. Evidence of the delay in setting time can be seen in the heat evolution rate curves of FIG. 1 wherein the hydration pattern of cement paste made with water is compared with the pattern from the same paste made with saturated borax solution.
Briefly stated, the above disadvantages of the prior art are overcome by this invention by providing a method of making hydraulic cement thixopastes which overcome the set retardant effects of borates upon hydraulic cements, so that non-recyclable reactor coolant wastes can be encapsulated in a hard, non-bleeding block of cement. The method includes the shearing of cement at a very high rate to eliminate the adverse effects of borates and thus effect complete bonding of the cementious material. This is accomplished by the application of extensive long term shear to a paste consisting of hydraulic cement plus a retarding agent with or without the presence of bulk additives. The end product is a thixotropic paste with extreme moldability which does not bleed and finally sets more rapidly than cements of normal mix, to form a very strong product. The method includes the deliberate regulation of acceleration of set in hydraulic cement pastes by utilizing retarding agents, such as calcium borate, in combination with extended shear mixing of the cement to thus develop the necessary properties in the cement/liquid mix.
While the foregoing discussion identifies problems presently existing in the prior art together with a general description of how they may be overcome, it is believed the following disclosure of the preferred embodiment of the invention will be better understood by reference to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 illustrates heat evolution rate curves which shows the hydration patterns of cement paste made with water and paste made with other liquid bases;
FIG. 2 shows curves illustrating the effect of shear on heat of hydration versus time for an ordinary Portland cement in (a) water and (b) saturated borax solution;
FIG. 3 shows curves illustrating the effects of mixing time, water/cement ratio and mixer speed on stiffening of cement pastes using a Colcrete mixer;
FIG. 4 shows curves illustrating the effect of mixing time, water/cement ratio and mixer speed on stiffening of cement pastes containing 18.5% borax in the absence of beads;
FIG. 5 shows curves illustrating the correlation of shear as defined by load volume/disc speed ratio with time to set of cement paste with a water/cement ratio of 0.5 and containing 18.5% borax solution;
FIG. 6 shows curves illustrating the effects of mixing time and water/cement ratio on stiffening of cement pastes with and without borax and beads, using a Colcrete mixer; and
FIG. 7 shows a curve illustrating the change of flow rate of a mix with time of mixing.
Referring to FIG. 1, the heat evolution rate curves show heat of hydration versus time for ordinary Portland cement paste made with water (curve A) and with a saturated borax solution (curve B) and for the condition where borates are precipitated out of the mix before hydration with excess calcium hydroxide (curve C) or calcium chloride (curve D), all at 20� C. and with a water/cement ratio of 0.5. The adverse effects that borates have on the internally generated heat of reaction in the mix and consequent setting time is clearly evident from the curves in this figure. Retardants are used in the construction industry to retard setting of cements and these are classified by the Cement Association as Class III and Class IV retardants. They may be used in the invention described herein, although the invention is more specifically directed toward the action which borates have on the setting of cement when used for encapsulation purposes. The waste from reactor systems intended to be solidified normally contain boric acid but the curves in FIG. 1 are based on liquid wastes containing sodium borate (borax) which is a base rather than an acid solution. The addition of sodium hydroxide to borated wastes upstream of the waste evapoator neutralizes the boric acid and thus minimizes evaporator material problems. The waste solutions to be encapsulated therefore ultimately have basic rather than acidic characteristics. Waste solutions having high levels of boric acid can be encapsulated according to the teachings of this invention, but it is preferable to neutralize the solution to obtain consistent and uniform encapsulations of waste products. For demonstration purposes a cement mixture has been defined as being one which falls within the following range to form a thixopaste:
Water/Cement: 0.45�0.05 w/w
Borate: 0-21000 ppm as Boron
Bulk Additive/Liquid: 0-1.65 v/v
A cement mixture containing a water/cement ratio of 0.55 will form a thixopaste provided that the period of shearing, or the number of shears is increased beyond that for cements in the water/cement range around 0.45 as more fully described hereafter. In the above ranges, 2500 ppm boron corresponds to 2.2% borax while 21000 ppm boron is the equivalent of 18.5% borax.
The preferred cement to be used for encapsulation is ordinary Portland cement because worldwide its properties and composition are within a small well defined range. Calcium sulfate hemihydrate could be used in lieu of Portland cement and although the retardation by borax is less with the plaster than with cement, this material did not give the colloidal suspending media found with Portland cement. Also, Rapid Hardening Portland cement may seem attractive but colloidal mixing has the ability to induce the properties of Rapid Hardening Portland cement into an ordinary Portland cement.
To achieve mixing of the cement mixture, different types of mixing equipment may be used but the preferred types are any one of the various "colloidal" mixers or mills which are commercially available in the industry. The colloid producing method is the one usually regarded as most suitable for producing cement grouts used in building construction, with or without sand, and is the type utilized in this invention. The application of shear to ordinary cement/water pastes separates the colloidal hydrates formed on the surface of the cement to produce a stable sol. Similarly, precipitates formed on the cement surface in a wet paste can be removed by the application of shear to the paste, hence new areas of surface are made available for hydration and the subsequent reactions of the cement/water system. Shear mixing has been successfully applied to cements commercially used for grouting. The normal mixing times for commercial grouts range between 15 and 60 seconds. This action keeps the cement particles in suspension, and, intuitively, must improve water retention.
During the course of performing work in seeking resolution of the problem created by borates in cement mixes, it was unexpectedly found that by utilizing a high shear mixer and subjecting cement paste containing borax to a high degree of shear that the retarding action of the borates could be substantially offset. FIG. 2 clearly illustrates the effects of high shear on a cement mixture containing borax. These curves illustrate the effects of paddle and high shear mixing of ordinary Portland cement with a liquid/cement ratio of 0.5 at 20� C. Curves A and B show the results of paddle mixing of separate water/cement and saturated borax solution/cement mixes, and curves C and D show the results of high shear mixing of separate water/cement and saturated borax solution/cement mixes. As expected Curves A and B in FIG. 2 correspond in slope with curves A and B in FIG. 1 since customary mixing procedures are used in mixing the cement pastes. It also was found that paddle mixing, as distinguished from high shear mixing, of the saturated borax solution, did not offset bleeding or retardation of set unless very low solutions to cement ratios were used. When such low solution were used, the mix did not easily flow. This is necessary for good mixing.
As illustrated in curve D of FIG. 2, subjecting cement pastes containing borax to a high degree of shear helps offset the retarding action of the borates. It was found that calcium borate was formed from the borax and calcium ions were released from the cement but the shearing action appears to prevent the calcium borate from being retained on the hydrating surface. The colloidal sol created by this high shearing action and its subsequent gelling, creates, a paste with a high cohesion between cement particles. This together with a high water retentivity is ideal for the purpose of encapsulation without bleeding. Eventually, with prolonged action, reaction heat is generated with consequent stiffening in the mix, and too much resistance to flow can cause the mixer to cease operating.
Although different kinds of mixers which impart shear to a cement mix are available, one mixer particularly suited for imparting a high degree of shear to cement pastes is the Colcrete colloidal mixer manufactured by Colcrete Ltd., of Strood Kent, England. It is a high shear mixer and is particularly effective in thoroughly mixing the cement with a high shearing action to remove the borate coating from the calcium silicate hydrate particles. The essential part of the mixer is a unit containing an eight-inch diameter disc which rotates at about 2000 rpm. The disc is rotated in a housing by an appropriate power unit and the cement/waste mix is formed into a colloidal mixture or grout by passage at high speed through a narrow gap of 1/8 inch between the disc and housing walls. The disc carries projecting vanes on its periphery which pump or recirculate the waste/cement mixture through the gap at high speed to cause thorough mixing through the shearing action. Thus the mixture is subjected to shear, mixing and pumping by one unit. Further, the mixer has a small internal volume. In the event of mechanical failure or premature set-up of the cement, the radiation levels of waste products in the mix would be relatively low because of the small cement mass in the unit. Also, the low volume makes it possible to clean the mixer without generating large quantities of radioactive waste water.
To provide a reference and to show the improvement in this invention over the prior art, FIG. 3 illustrates curves which shows the effects of the following mixing times, water/cement ratios and mixers speeds on stiffening of cement paste using a Colcrete mixer.
______________________________________Mix Water/Cement Ratio Mixer Speed______________________________________1 0.4 21002 0.4 19803 0.45 21004 0.45 19805 0.4 14806 0.5 21007 0.5 19808 0.45 1480______________________________________
None of the mixes contain borax and all set within six hours. Mixes with a water/cement ratio below 0.5 stiffens rapidly in the mixer and for a water/cement ratio of 0.45, 15 minutes mixing is a safe limit relative to stiffening for a mixer speed of 2100 rpm. For a mix with a water/cement ratio of 0.40, the safe limit is 10 minutes at a mixer speed of 2100 rpm and at these parameters, the mix does not flow very readily. Of all mixes, only the mix with a water/cement ratio of 0.5 mixed for 10 minutes at a speed of 1980 rpm had bleed water remaining after 24 hours. With faster mixers there is no bleeding of the mixes with water/cement ratios less than 0.45 after 10 minutes mixing.
FIG. 4 shows the effect of mixing time, water cement ratio and mixer speed on stiffening of cement pastes containing 18.5% borax in the absence of beads or other filler.
______________________________________Mix Water/Cement Ratio Mixer Speed______________________________________1 0.4 21002 0.4 19803 0.45 21004 0.45 19805 0.50 21006 0.50 19807 0.50 14808 0.55 1980______________________________________
The persistence of bleed water in the foregoing mixes and how soon these mixes containing high concentrations of borax will set are important factors in determining quality of mix. The borax concentration of 18.5% to water used in the mixes was made by first adding water and borax in the desired ratio to the mixer and mixing the solution for two minutes. Subsequently, cement was added and time of mixing commenced. The curves show a cement paste can be produced from a mixture of water and 18.5% borax with twice its weight of cement, which will stiffen in 36 hours and not display bleed water. The mixer must have a speed more than 2000 rpm and the mixing must continue for 30 minutes. Lesser times or speed will not stop the persistence of bleed water.
With an 18.5% solution to cement ratio of 0.45 some bleeding occurs but this bleed solution is drawn back into the mix before setting takes place. If mixed for 10 minutes, such a mix will stiffen within 30 hours. Mixing for 30 minutes results in stiffening in less than 24 hours. It has been found that reducing the borax concentration from 18.5% to 2% speeds up the setting process. Ten minutes of mixing time with a solution to cement ratio of 0.45 causes set to take place under six hours, but the mixer can still operate for 20 minutes without flow ceasing. A comparison of the results of these mixes can be made with those mixes not containing borax as illustrated in FIG. 3.
If the solution to cement ratio is reduced to 0.4, the flow in the mixer begins to slow down after about 18 minutes and the speed of the mixer is an important factor in promoting stiffening.
As indicated above, the important concept in this invention is based on knowledge that borates normally will prevent bonding between cement particles but it was found that when cement was sheared at a particular rate, it elimated the adverse effects of borates and thus permitted bonding. In this way, radioactive borates can be incorporated in a cement mixture and still get the cement mixture to set.
The amount of shear imparted to the cement/waste mix per unit of time depends on the load volume (L) and flow rate through the gap in the Colcrete colloidal mixer. Since the flow rate depends upon the rate of rotation of the disc (R) and the flow characteristics of the mix, the total shear received by the mix (S) is:
S=Kf- (R/L)�Time.
The amount of shear affects the setting time of the mix by exposing more surface to the liquid phase. If the development of final set is considered, i.e. 750 g/mm2 penetration, as an indicator for a constant amount of reaction, f- (R/L)�T is constant.
The mixer which rotated at a constant speed of 1480 rpm was loaded with 67 Kg cement 33 Kg water and 6.2 Kg borax. After 10 minutes, 4.5 liters of paste were removed for testing and after another 10 minutes another 4.5 liters were removed for testing. This was repeated with a second mixer which rotated at a constant speed of 1980 rpm and a third mixer at 2100 rpm.
The samples were tested for penetration resistance after various period of time and plots were drawn of resistance versus time. From these plots the age of each sample when penetration resistance reached 750 g/mm2 was found.
FIG. 5 shows the correlation of shear is defined by load volume--disc speed ratio with time to set of current paste with a water/cement ratio of 0.5 and containing 18.5% borax solutions. Curve A represents disc rotation of 2100 rpm, Curve B represents disc rotation of 1980 rpm and Curve C 1480 rpm.
An important source of waste material in reactor systems is ion exchange resin beads conventionally used for stripping radioactive particles from liquid circulated in the secondary side of the system. The resin beads usually are cross linked polystyrene beads in the size range 0.35 mm to 1.2 mm. The beads become contaminated during the course of capturing and releasing radioactive particles and when the resin useful life ends, it is drained free of liquid and disposed of as radioactive waste.
In considering the encapsulation of these resin beads in cement, the bead concentrations must be considered on a volume basis because of the bead low density, but dosage of cement is usually considered on a weight basis. In the water cement mixes in the CGS system, weight and volume are interchangeable for water but the borax concentration in solutions will affect the density. Two ratios are therefore important:
R1 --The ratio of solution volume to cement weight.
R2 --The ratio of bead volume to solution volume.
If the slight volume change which occurs when borax dissolves in water is not considered, and assuming a cement density of 3140 Kg/m3, a volume for the mix can be based on the volume of beads (VB) which is equal to:
Since the volume is fixed by the mixer or drum, the bead content is maximized by a high value of R1 R2.
However increasing R1 will increase the tendency to bleed and retard set and strength development, and increasing R2 will decrease strength, increase permeability and increase total radioactivity. A compromise is therefore reached by choosing the values of R1 =0.45 and R2 =1.
The borax content depends on the concentration in the particular liquid used and upon R1. High values of R1 permit more liquid per drum but this is offset by the increased retardation as the borax/cement ratio rises.
FIG. 6 includes curves showing the effects of mixing time and water-cement ratios on stiffening of cement pastes with and without borax and beads, using a Colcrete high shear mixer. The data on which the curves are based include
______________________________________ Bead/Liquid Mixer SpeedMix W/C Ratio Borax % Ratio rpm______________________________________1 0.45 -- 1:1 21002 0.45 -- -- 21003 0.45 2 1:15 21004 0.45 2 1:1 21005 0.45 2 -- 2100______________________________________
These curves show the effect of mixing time and mix stiffening compared with that of a similar mix without beads. Since rapid stiffening in the mix will cause flow in the mixer to cease, control over mixing time is very important. The curves show that ten minutes mixing time is the maximum safe time for solutions of 2.0% borax before the reduction of flow in the mixer presents a problem.
The stiffening which occurs with prolonged shearing action on cement paste can reduce the flow of paste past the disc in the Colcrete mixer. When this occurs, the paste cavitates and flow will stop. The presence of beads in the mix increases the shearing action and the curve of FIG. 7 indicates the change of flow rate of a mix with time of mixing. It is based on the following mix:
______________________________________ Solution/Cement Water Beads Borax Cement______________________________________83.25 Kg 37.5 liters 33.0 Kg 825 g 0.45Bead Volume Vol. of Mix______________________________________41.25 105.26 liters______________________________________
The above quantity of mix filled a mixer about half full which was rotated at 2100 rpm. The curve of FIG. 12 shows that the flow rate decrease with time is not linear and that extrapolation to zero flow rate can be made. In this example flow ceased at about 22 minutes.
The setting behavior of the cement can be monitored with ultrasonic pulse velocity measurements of known design to ascertain that set has taken place in the mix. The results suggest that a pulse velocity above 1.70 Km per second will indicate that the mass is set. This pulse velocity is higher with beads in the mix.
Temperature peaks occur a short time after setting takes place and if monitored, temperature changes will indicate setting. On average, the time to set was 0.45� the time to temperature peak and this factor ranges from 0.28 to 0.63. The effect of temperature rise in a large mass will accelerate the setting of the material.
The retarding effect of borax on cement hydration can be countered by high shear mixing. It is possible to obtain a paste containing 18.5% borax to water with a water to cement ratio of 0.5 that will set within 36 hours without persistent bleed water. The stiffened mass continues to harden. The set is controlled by varying the concentration of borates in the cement mix which constitutes a retardant, or the number of shears applied to the cement mix. The presence of bulking additives, such as ion exchange beads, decreases the apparent effective number of shears required to be externally applied, since their presence in the mix increases the attrition on the cement particle surfaces. Similarly, by increasing the concentration of retardant present in the mix, it becomes necessary to increase the number of shears applied in order to produce the thixopaste.
As disclosed above, colloidal or high shear mixers are required to produce thixopaste when mixing in large scale equipment. For example, when using a batch type Colcrete colloidal cement mixer, mixing times of 15�three minutes are required to produce the thixopaste from mixtures contained within the range defined above. By changing the efficiency of shearing and suitable premixing of the components of the paste, the procedure may be converted to an in-line continuous flow process.
It will be apparent that many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teachings. It therefore is to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced other than as specifically described.

This is a great shot, you have nailed the pan and got pin sharp on the driver! But is the white balance a bit of? The car doesnt feel as white as it should be. It might just have been cloudy (sadly, we can't do anything about that!)

Terrific motion capture. I agree that the pic is a bit dark in places and the black area in front of the car is veryr distracting. Guess it was a post or tree or something. The capture itself is almost perfect and far better than I have achieved. It was just in need of a bit of post pic editing. I have done a mod for you and removed the post or whatever it was and cloned in a bit of extra space in front of the car. I have also clarified and adjusted the curves in ps to brighten the image and get nore detail on the driver.
If you find this helpful then please mark as good critique.

About Glocester
Glocester is a somewhat small town located in the state of Rhode Island.
With a population of 9,738 people and two constituent neighborhoods,
Glocester is the 30th largest community in Rhode Island.
Unlike some towns where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Glocester is neither predominantly one nor the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Glocester is a town of professionals, sales and office workers and service providers. There are especially a lot of people living in Glocester who work in sales jobs (12.30%), office and administrative support (12.02%) and teaching (10.32%).
Because of many things, Glocester is a great place for families with children to consider. First of all, many other families with children live here, making Glocester a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families, as well as find family-oriented services and community. The town's good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic values. With regard to real estate, Glocester has a high rate of owner-occupied single family homes, which tends to reflect stability in the local community. Finally, Glocester's overall crime rate ranks among the lowest in the country, making it one of the safest places to raise a family.
In Glocester, however, the average commute to work is quite long. On average, people spend 32.03 minutes each day getting to work, which is significantly higher than the national average.
The education level of Glocester citizens is substantially higher than the typical US community, as 31.16% of adults in Glocester have at least a bachelor's degree.
The per capita income in Glocester in 2010 was $32,802, which is middle income relative to Rhode Island, and wealthy relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $131,208 for a family of four. However, Glocester contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
The people who call Glocester home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Glocester residents report their race to be White, followed by Asian. Important ancestries of people in Glocester include Irish, Italian, English, French, French Canadian and Polish.
The most common language spoken in Glocester is English. Some people also speak French.

Malpractice Ch01~*Mercenary's Warpath: Master and Apprentice*~MalpracticeChapter 1~*~ By now you've seen where a legal mercenary like Sakura works: Whenever and wherever she's needed, and oftentimes for more reason than she initially thought or realized. However, this probably begs the question by now of where a mercenary like her lives. While many of her kind probably don't have any one stable place to call 'home' and are simply on constant travel to one mission or another, well... we know by now that Sakura's not like her fellow mercs simply by the fact that she's not in it just for the money, don't we? She does in fact have a perfectly nice place to call home in the small town of Rainbow Falls, her initial destination prior to the events in Knothole Village. Just what is her home like though? Damien's about to find out, and he might just be a bit surprised by his mentor's living conditions.~*~*~*~*~ "Damien, wake up. We're almost there." Sakura nudged her apprentice sof

Draft on the move from New York Aaron Wilson
The NFL draft is on the move.
Instead of being held in New York, the draft will be in Chicago or Los Angeles next year, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell announced.
"We're focusing solely on Los Angeles and Chicago now," Goodell said.
The reason it won't be in New York, where it's been held since 1965, is because Goodell said Radio City Music Hall had no available dates in April or May.
"We had 12 cities that were interested," Goodell said. "We felt the best thing to do was to focus on the three cities, because they had such a tremendous interest. There are very attractive aspects to each of those cities. Because we don't have the appropriate dates in May our focus is completely on Los Angeles and Chicago. They both have tremendous bids."
The NFL is also considering expanding the draft from three days to four days.
Goodell acknowledged that might be tough to maintain viewer interest.
"We're talking about different concepts, primarily how to strengthen the last day and whether we should maybe push that back to the clubs a little bit more and allow the clubs to have a little bit more freedom as more of a club day," Goodell said. "Maybe they would announce the picks from there. We're looking at everything under the sun, because there's a great interest in it and we want to do something that's more responsive to our fans."

The Mount Royal Resident
The staff is courteous and they respond to maintenance issues quickly. The renovated apts are not really worth Read More the price of rent. I wish they had an outdoor area for tenants to use.

EDUCATION MATTERS: Taking care of housekeeping
By Marsha Sutton
Please forgive the smattering of odds and ends that make up the bulk of Education Matters this week. Having collected a number of follow-ups, postscripts, updates and brief items of interest in my to-do basket, I thought it best to sum it all up in one column, clean out the file and make a fresh start of it, in preparation for the next round of data accumulation.
Topping the list is an update, requested by many readers, of the investigation into the case of the Torrey Pines High School student who was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and gross vehicular manslaughter in connection with the death of fellow student Alex Capozza.
As reported, the investigation into the party the night before the crash is ongoing.
"It's still an open case [although] we don't have a lot of witnesses coming forward," said Shelley Bishop last month. Bishop is an investigator with the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control's Target Responsibility for Alcohol Connected Emergencies (TRACE) unit.
Bishop returned my call Jan. 27 to provide me with an update, although it's not much. When asked how she would go about verifying the rumors that one identified individual provided the alcohol, she replied, "If you go to them [the accused] directly, it's a guaranteed 'no.' If I confront someone, I don't want to show my hand."
The teens in a position to know what happened are still not speaking to authorities on the record. And without witnesses willing to be named, Bishop said her hands are tied. She said she still plans to speak with the driver of the car, now serving time in the youth correctional facility at Camp Barrett in east San Diego County. And she has not dropped the case.
Why and why not Race to the Top
In my story that ran a few weeks ago on the federal Race to the Top (RTTT) money that the Department of Education is awarding to states that meet specific conditions for qualification, the discussion centered around the apparent lack of enthusiasm of San Diego County school districts to apply for a piece of the pie.
As noted in the story, only 14 of the county's 42 school districts signed the Memorandum of Understanding put forth by the California Department of Education.
Locally, the Solana Beach School District and the San Dieguito Union High School District did not sign the MOU, while the Del Mar Union and the Rancho Santa Fe school districts did.
DMUSD Superintendent Sharon McClain explained why her district signed the MOU. She acknowledged that there were good reasons not to sign and originally advised against it. But when she learned that the district could disengage as more information became available, she decided to counsel her board to go ahead and sign.
"If the parameters of the program still aren't clear by April when the funding is supposed to be disbursed, then I'll advise the board to back out at that time," McClain said.

Nice room, clean. Large breakfast area so people had room to start their day.
I know fresh fruit is expensive, but if you are going to have it - please keep it fresh. The fruit was rather "tired".

The breakfast, nice that it is offered, but needs improving! No one expects great at these hotels but the scrambled eggs and sausage were gross! They need to look into other ways to offer or brands that are of more quality. Good coffee and yogurt.

Kicker elects to stay in Tennessee. Terry McCormick
Long-time Tennessee Titans kicker Rob Bironas has agreed to terms on a new two-year contract, per multiple reports.
Bironas, 35, has been one of the most accurate kickers in the NFL since the Titans first signed him eight years ago. However, he did have a bit of a slip last year, hitting 25 of 31 field goals, but made all 19 of his tries inside the 40-yard line.

Ayotte holds her ground : Rookie tosses Rice at Obama
Credit U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte with holding her ground on the deplorable and ill-considered Obama administration plan to name Susan Rice our Secretary of State. Coming from the state whose native son, Daniel Webster, once served with distinction in that post, Ayotte may have a particular appreciation for the importance of the post.
Ayotte, along with fellow Republicans John McCain and Lindsey Graham, took the lead in challenging the now-scuttled Rice plan, hatched by President Obama as a payoff for one of his Chicago political cronies.
McCain and Graham are longtime Senate and political pros, who have built up the tough skins and political street credibility needed when mounting such a challenge. Ayotte, by contrast, is a rookie in the ways of Washington.
Those who don't know her would not have been surprised had she wilted and wavered under the political and liberal media fire that was directed her way for opposing a newly reelected President.
But Sen. Ayotte is guided by facts and common sense. Ambassador Rice was clearly dissembling on the subject of what she knew and when she knew it on the Benghazi attack that left an American ambassador dead. To ignore that fact and put Rice in such an important post would have been exactly the wrong thing to do.
Ayotte is a rookie, but she has the markings of being a Rookie of the Year for Republicans, which is no doubt why her political foes here are already trying to gin up bad reviews for her every move.

This was a very enjoyable read. The subject matter and the ethical questions raised (viewing the 70's from our 21st century perspective) were handled well. It was refreshing to have an adolescent male protagonist who is not afraid to cry and express his feelings. A very interesting story - I didn't know what was coming next. I expect good things from Kenneth Oppel and I was not disappointed. Highly recommended for preteens and teens.
goood book
Great book!
could not put it down.
Read it in a day!
Omg I loved this book so much the begging was slow but thats about it!
I highly recommend this book! I think it's very funny yet interesting to have a chimpanzee as your little brother and who is a part of your family! But this surely is one of my favorites.
Masterpiece of a book. I loved it so much! Really inspiring and entirely changes the way you view animal life.
This book was fantastic! I had doubts at first, but after reading it I fell in love with it.
Learning about chimps through the eyes of a family. Yes, chimps can acquire sign language - interesting from a scientific viewpoint, but not really in the best interests of these animals who are controlled by humans. There have been documentaries about cute baby chimps who are used for TV ads. I feel angry and saddened at their plight. Also, they face a terrible future when they mature and aren't so cute anymore - often euthanized.
i have been waiting for this book for like forever and now that i have read it its just AMAZING!! i give a 4 stars for the this book you'll enjoy it!!! :D

Ben moves to a new house in the country because his dad has an interesting experiment to work on. In this experiment Ben needs to treat Zan (the new born monkey) like a brother, and teach him to do sign language. But new house means new schools, and new bullies and romances.

Half Brother by Kenneth Oppel
When Ben Tomlin's mother brings home his "new baby brother," an eight-day-old chimpanzee, Ben is far from thrilled. His father, a renowned behavioural scientist, has uprooted the family and moved them halfway across the country, to Victoria, B.C., so he can pursue a high-profile experiment -- to determine whether chimpanzees can learn human sign language.

text: One of the many colorful and common little flies in Florida is Allograpta obliqua, known as a hover fly, flower fly, or syrphid fly. No matter what they are called, these flies are important predators. The adult syrphid fly can commonly be found in the garden. Adults look like bees, but they have only one pair of wings. You can usually find them hovering in one spot. These flies are expert fliers and can hover or fly backward, abilities possessed by few other insects. Adults often visit flowers for nectar. Adults may also be seen around aphid colonies where, prior to laying her eggs, the female syrphid fly feeds on honeydew secreted by the aphids. Adult syrphid flies are considered to be important in the cross-pollination of some plants. The larvae are important predators, feeding primarily on aphids. Syrphid fly eggs are layed singly on the surface of a leaf or twig that bears aphids. When larval populations are high, syrphid flies may kill 70 to 100% of an aphid population. Larvae are greenish-brown and look like small shapeless bits of slime. In addition, unlike caterpillars, syrphid fly larvae have no legs, which is a great clue for identifying these helpful insects. Try turning over an aphid-infested leaf in your yard to see if you can identify these important garden predators!
