Snap-on Receives Five Top Innovation Awards From Professional Tool & Equipment News
Snap-on was recently awarded five Professional Tool & Equipment News (PTEN) 2013 Innovation Awards during the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) in Las Vegas, Nevada. These prestigious awards are bestowed upon companies whose products respond to the automotive repair industry's market challenges with creativity and innovation.
A panel of active and independent automotive technicians, shop owners and tool distributors carefully examined all nominees and voted Snap-on best in the following categories:
- Lab Scopes: Snap-on ® BK8000 Wireless Digital Inspection Scope
- Lighting: Rechargeable Lithium Ion Work Light
- Tool Storage: Diagnostic Mobile WorkStations
- Tire, Wheel Service: John Bean ® AC400 Touchless Wheel Clamp
- Shop Equipment: Integrity Test Drive by John Bean.
"We thank PTEN for recognizing Snap-on with five top Innovation Awards," said Tom Ward, President – Repair Systems & Information Group. "We strive to provide inventive, problem-solving tools and equipment that address the needs of our customers, so it is particularly gratifying to receive special recognition of our efforts."
Lab Scopes: Wireless Digital Inspection Scope (BK8000)With a large video screen and extensive memory, the BK8000 brings increased visibility to under dash, inside door panels, under hood, behind the engine block, within transmission housings, inside the engine and other difficult to access work areas. The dual imager further improves the ability to diagnose problems by allowing for straight ahead or 90-degree angle viewing. The 4.3-inch diameter screen is 40 percent larger than competitive units for better viewing. Digital video and images are captured with an internal memory and SD card storage. Three mega-pixel rear-view cameras allow technicians to document pre-service vehicle condition. Lighting: Rechargeable Lithium Ion Work Light (CTLED7850) Versatility defines the Rechargeable Lithium Ion Work Light, making it useful in multiple settings and applications. This innovative 18V light features a unique Dual Beam Reflector System that easily changes from a "spot style" beam reflector that concentrates the brightest portion of light near the center of the beam pattern, to a second "flood style" beam reflector for applications that may require illumination over a larger area. The lithium ion light has a cast aluminum head for durability and pivots 120-degrees for ease of use. A high capacity LED delivers a category leading 300 lumens of brightness.

Either Vaccinate or Find a New Doctor!
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 02-14-2013 - 3:43pm
I have a friend who's pediatirician will no longer treat her family because of their vaccination choices. His office implemented a new policy that requires all patients to be fully vaccinated, and she refuses to vaccinate her children with the MMR vaccine. Now she has to do another search for a pediatrician she can trust, who will also respect her wishes.
Do you think that it's fair for doctors to stop seeing patients for this reason?
|Fri, 02-22-2013 - 5:00pm
|Thu, 02-21-2013 - 11:53am
|Wed, 02-20-2013 - 8:32pm
I'm with the doctor. I'm also betting this a medical liablity issue for private practice physicians. I'm sure they'd rather require all patients to have vaccinations than face a lawsuit.
|Wed, 02-20-2013 - 10:45am
Yes it's fair. The doctor should have a right to determine with whom he or she does business just like the consumer has a choice in doctors, insurance plans, etc. Of course it's a hassle to find a new doctor, but it's a hassle for the doctor to find new patients, too. If either party doesn't agree to the business transaction contract, neither should be forced into it.
On a more relational note, I agree with the poster who asked how your friend could feel comfortable with a doctor who so obviously disagrees with your friend's desire to not vaccinate anyway. It would reasonably be a bad situation if your friend continued seeing a doctor when there is so obvious disagreement on health practices between them.
|Tue, 02-19-2013 - 5:24pm
A doctor in private practice has the right to turn away patients if they feel they are not on the same page. It is their right just like its our right to choose what doctor we go to. The first pediatrician I went to after my middle one was born told me when I told her we were on the fence about vaccinations that we either vaccinated and followed her care as she saw fit because of her medical training, or find a new pediatrician. We sought out a new pediatrician and have been relatively happy so far with them. My question would be, if the doctor isn't willing to budge or talk with the patient about why they feel that way, do you want that doctor treating your family all the time, are they going to listen to you as a parent about the care of you or your child or are they going to go with what they have determined is the right care regardless. I personally would prefer a doctor that is a partner with me and a source or knowledge, but not one that isn't going to listen to my thoughts and concerns in relation to care for my child.
And yes, it also is party to do with lawsuits and liabilities, and they are getting increasing pressure from the American Pediatric Association to have this policy to let go of parents that aren't willing to vaccinate or vaccinate on schedule.
|Fri, 02-15-2013 - 12:39pm
While it sucks for your friend, I can understand the doctor's pov. They have to protect themselves from lawsuits in case anything happens as a result of that child not being vaccinated. Does anyone know if you can be a exception to a rule like this if your child has shown to have reactions to vaccines in the past? Does it vary by doctor or are their no exceptions?

More than 18 million television viewers watched Carrie Underwood perform the role of Maria last week in NBC's The Sound of Music Live!
But Julie Andrews wasn't among them.
Andrews, who starred in the 1965 Oscar-winning film adaptation of the Rodgers & Hammerstein classic, explained, "Alas, I did not [see it]. I had a speaking engagement and I couldn't. But my kids did record it. I'll get around to it."
She attended the U.S. premiere Monday night of Saving Mr. Banks, which depicts the battle between P.L. Travers, author of the Mary Poppins novels, and Walt Disney, who worked for decades to persuade the writer that the Poppins tales would make a fine film.
Saving Mr. Banks picks up the story in 1961, when the London-based Travers finally agreed to a two-week visit to Los Angeles to meet with Disney and his creative team. Before signing over the film rights, Travers wanted to see Disney's treatment of her source material, and quickly proved a brutal critic and difficult collaborator — shredding key decisions about the film adaptation, including casting.
In "Banks," Travers (played by Emma Thompson) goes on a tirade about the hiring of Dick Van Dyke. On the arrivals line, Van Dyke revealed an additional Travers tidbit that isn't in the movie.
"Well, she wasn't thrilled with Julie, either," he said of Andrews' casting. "She wanted a dumpy little Mary Poppins. She didn't want a pretty girl. So, she didn't like either one of us."

Mothball Boutique
138 S. Broad St., Griffith
Contact: 218-3089; firstname.lastname@example.com
Hours: 12 to 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday
Updated: September 20, 2013 6:07AM
When Mary Serrano and Ashley George began working together at a local hair salon a few years ago, they admired each other's style of wearing vintage clothing. That mutual respect led the women, along with Mary's husband Mike, to open Mothball Boutique in downtown Griffith.
Featuring previously owned items — vinyl records, home decorating selections, jewelry, men's and women's clothing and accessories — the storefront area greets visitors with a large metal moth designed by artist friends of the new business owners.
"We are not a thrift store, a resale store or a second-hand store," said George, 22. "We have hand-picked items and are considered a boutique."
None of the three owners have quit their day jobs just yet. Mary Serrano, 25, and George continue their at the hair salon and Mike Serrano, 27, works in video technology in Chicago.
"It's always been a dream of mine since I was a teenager to have a record store," Mike said as he organized vinyl record albums in deep bins. "Everything just came together when we decided to start this business."
The store's inventory isn't large, and, since clothing items are vintage, they are not available in all sizes. The owners hope to offer customers unique finds at reasonable prices.
"We're sort of a personal shopper," Mary Serrano said. "We've done the work. Our customers don't have to go to the other stores and dig to find the treasures. We have them here."
An open house was held last month to introduce the new business to the community.
"There's a lot going on in this downtown area, which is up and coming, and hundreds of people came through," George said. "We offered live music and visitors were very receptive to our new business. There is no other store like ours in this area."
Upon entering the store, customers are greeted by a long glass display case that houses vintage jewelry and hair accessories. A seating area is available for those wanting to relax, discuss music and the arts, or wait for friends using the dressing room.
Future plans for the trio of new entrepreneurs include adding clothing from local designers, hosting live music, and offering art shows. For now, establishing themselves in the community is the number one focus.
"We're not for everyone — we are an eclectic, niche market," George said. "We have created a place for the counter culture community, giving northwest Indiana residents the opportunity to express themselves through our high end clothing and items."

The CW Pushes Cult to Friday Nightsby Matt Richenthal at . Comments
Let the talk of Matt Davis somehow returning to The Vampire Diaries begin.
Following back to back episodes that each failed to garner one million viewers, Cult has been pushed to Friday nights by The CW. It's final episodes will be burned off then at 9 p.m., starting on March 8.
In the show's previous time slot, the network will air encore episodes of various programs, beginning on March 5 with Beauty and the Beast.
Cult premiered to just 860,000 viewers and a 0.3 demographic rating on February 19. Its second installment failed to improve on those numbers in any noticeable fashion.
Matt Richenthal is the Editor in Chief of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Twitter and on Google+.Tags: TV Listings, Cult
This show has such an interesting plot and set of characters. It's real unfortunate if this new timeslot doesn't save it. Cult could've been something great but airing it on tuesdays was a big mistake and it does have big competition. With Cult I think the problem is that there is already so much crime shows that don't have the same idea yet share same sort of dark themes. And of course the biggest competition is The Following and Kevin Bacon. I think the same thing is happening with Cult as with Ringer. Ringer came out the wrong time, starting same year with Revenge and Revenge totally killed Ringer. Hopefully CW will at least give us enough episodes to get all the answers IF Cult doesn't make it otherwise.
Airing it after TVD, whilst moving BATB would have been a better move. Would have given this show a chance and a decision as to whether or not the fans would follow BATB IF it were to be renewed for a second season and given a new time slot. It's quite sad that fans have way better ideas than the people who make the decisions... at least at CW.
Well that sucks! Personally I really like this show.
I am a Matt Davis fan but have read several time he is very opinionated and a recent article Matt himself said he was not happy with where Julie took Alaric's character on the TVD for a long time and he wanted to get off the show for a long long time. So personally I do not think he will appear on TVD again BUT if he does,there is not much his character can do, unless the whole raising Silas happens and all the dead come back to like BUT I do not see that happening either.
OK, we all know that this means that this show is as good as canceled, the only thing missing is the official announcement from the network. Let's focus on how to bring back Matt Davis to TVD. Bonnie could resurrect him or something? That would be the best use of her witchy-powers within 4 seasons of this show. And Alaric could tell us interesting stories about the life on the other side... Can we file a petition or something?
Airing it after TVD, whilst moving BATB would have been a better move. Would have given this show a chance and a decision as to whether or not the fans would follow BATB IF it were to be renewed for a second season and given a new time slot.
Cult is only a hit within the show...This show was pretty much a goner since the premiere of The Following...similar concept..plus The Following as frigging Kevin Bacon!!
I like the show its just I can't watch it when it's on because I have other shows like ncis, ncis la, and pretty little liars.
not surprised, i wanted to like it but i just can't get into this show :(

I've been "muddling" through my days. I know I said I would be back Sparking, but I haven't been doing that. I know I am in a funk....normal/natural under the circumstances, but I don't like where I am at. I was so used to being "in control" and now my emotions have taken over (not all of the time). Been reading articles/books on grieving, looking for some guidance. This is helping. Tried to get back into my scheduled lifestyle....found that my/our schedule is not the way to go....Got to find a new schedule for me... will be working on that. Actually started today we will see where this leads me. Over all I am doing OK. (I think) eating so-so, water intake so-so exercise lacking but doing some most days. I am a survivor of many things throughout my life that I know there will be a light at the end of this tunnel.
Thank you for all of your ongoing support, especially those who "pop" in every week to add a little sunshine to my day. ((HUGS)) B
As some of you know, on Jan. 7 my beloved DH was diagnosed with stage 4 lung/liver cancer. Our God had/has a plan and He received Chet back into His heavenly fold on Jan. 18. I feel Chet's presence everyday. He will always be my Special Angel.
This has been a difficult journey, but I know if I continue to take one day at a time with the grace of God, I will have the strength and courage to continue.
On my Spark page I have a part of the Serenity prayer. I would like to share the whole prayer with you as I feel comfort in reading it in its entirety.
God, grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can and the Wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardship as a pathway to peach. Taking as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it. Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever in the next. Amen
A Spark friend sent me the "Foot prints in the Sand" poem. Looking back on these past days, I can only say He has carried me more than me walking alone.
I want to thank all who have continued their support. I can feel the love in each written word. I am trying to get some daily structure in my life, so I will be Sparking again. Working on staying healthy and finding a positive attitude along the way. (HUGS) Barb
For those of you following my niece's battle with ovarian cancer: her scans and blood work continue to look good. Your prayers and good thoughts are truly helping with this...
Laurie had her third chemo treatment this past week and like too many before her, she shaved her head wearing this as a badge of courage and hope. She has good days and better days, but through it all she is staying strong in her convictions and believes; courageous and so inspiring.
The fund raiser brought out hundreds of supporters. There were two venues going on that day. $6100 was raised at one and still don't know the total from the second one.
Needless to say it was an emotional day. We were all so moved by the great support system in place for Laurie. One event I have to mention: people signed up to raise money to shave their heads. Laurie's DH, Bob, who I might add is one of those men, along with some of his friends, always took great pride in their hair. Someone put up $300 for Bob to shave his head and of course he did....proudly showing his loving support. Another handful of his friends did the same...supporting both Laurie and Bob.
One of the gals at the event signed up to raise $1000 to shave her beautiful blond hair. I'm not sure if she thought that raising that kind of money was possible....but we did it. Tears flowed all around, but Dawn let Laurie shave her locks off.....just awesome!
As for DH and me.... we are doing well. Now that this event is done we can concentrate on staying healthy (so we can continue visiting with Laurie) and oh yes, Christmas is just around the corner so we better finish up our decos and shopping and wrapping and get some cookies baked and well you get the picture.....so much to do, but what gets done gets done....to top it off our son from Portland will be in town at the end of the month. He is standing up for his oldest friend's wedding on Jan. 3rd.
We hope to see him for a day or two.
I want to thank all of you for your on going support with comments and goodies. Truly keeps me going knowing just how much my extended family cares. I love you all.
Well, I need to shovel some more snow from last night so thanks for stopping by. Have a healthy day. Hug the ones you love. ((HUGS)) from me.
I posted this on a AAU team thread and realized my many friends on other teams would like an update too...so
For those who don't know the story, here is a short recap. During a routine gall bladder surgery, Laurie was diagnosed with a rare ovarian type cancer. Since than she has had surgery to remove abdominal cancer cells along with a small section of her small intestine.
She needed to wait approximately 28 days (to let her small intestine heal a bit) before starting chemo. This Thursday she will be starting her chemo regiment. The stats for this type of cancer is a 50% for 5 years. We know she can beat these odds.....God willing. Please keep Laurie in your prayers for a successful recovery.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful Sunday and hug the ones you love.
Now that it's getting colder outside I'm remembering how difficult it was for me that first winter on SP. Trying to get in 8+ glasses of water (it's easy when it's hot outside), having to change my breakfasts (cold cereal with fruit) and my lunches (sandwich, salad, fruit). I made these changes: drank 16 oz of water with each meal and snack; made oatmeal or English muffin & egg plus fruit for breakfast; and lunches were comforting soups (with lots of veggies) plus fruit.
It's time to get back to those old "new" habits for me to stay on track this winter. Because I have adapted to moderation for everything and portion control the holidays no longer "scare" me. I hope to embrace my healthy eating habits and make sure I spend more time with family and friends not just eating with them. There is always someone to share a dessert with :) Now that DH is on board with getting healthier and doing a great job I might add.....his almost too tight winter jacket is loose on him this year. I think he will be in on sharing those desserts.
For those of you following my niece Laurie's cancer story: she had a good week. Learning how to eat 5-6 mini healthy meals. She had her staples (42) out yesterday without too much pain. They discussed her options for her chemo treatments which will start in a few more weeks as they want her small intestine to heal a bit more. She is staying strong and positive.
Thanks for stopping by with your comments. Hope you all have a great week and remember to hug the ones you love. ((HUGS))

For Whom the Bell Tolls

CommentAdd a Comment
great story about the Spanish civil war. great hemingway style-crisply written. amazing how he gives you a great view of what these people were about and what drove them and what they feared. all done in a fast moving pace.
The first half of this book takes either incredible stamina or a deep appreciation of the smaller things in life and of the local culture and circumstances of the story, not because the story is not an interesting one but simply because of the microscopic scale of the plot. I would say that I had a mix of these two, so I was able to enjoy the beginning of the book as well as the end, which I loved. It's definitely interesting to test yourself by reading something at such a profoundly different pace then you're used to, and to see the beautiful level of detail and reality that can be attained by it. Highly recommended.
What struck me most in this novel was the language. Hemingway of course is known for his journalistic style, but there it was his willingness to mirror the Spanish language, making the distinction between the thou and the you to demonstrate familiarity and ultimately emotion.
The politics were well explained without being burdening; the cultural aspects and the horrors of the war are very moving and bring the readers into the story, especially at the end, where we are left alone with Jordan. Finally, I liked the flashback to the American Civil War - it made me better understand why Jordan was there in the first place, so all ties in well from a historical and psychological perspective. Definitely a tour de force.
Last third of this book is magnificent...up to that point VERY slow.
To expand a little on the previous comment, I would like to agree but to say that the characters that lack definition are primarily female. He writes fiction albeit from his own perspective and experiences as a man. His inability to get into the minds of these characters can be frustrating but if you're looking for a woman's perspective I would not recommend reading Hemingway.
i think that ernest hemingway is a good writer but i dont think he is a great writer. i think he can underestimate his characters and not give them enough support to be stronger and more bolder ones

I was surprised at how nice this table really is. Assembled quickly and easily. Nice weight - light enough to move around, yet heavy enough not to blow off the patio. Adjustable feet on the bottom of the legs was an unexpected bonus - prevents table from wobbling on an uneven surface. Great value for the money.
Perfect porch settee with this and two of the rockers. Love it! It's a good size and very sturdy. Went together quickly. All tools included.
We purchased 2 of these tables for our patio sectional. We initially selected this table because of the little shelf on the lower part of the table. We are very happy with our selection. The top is level even though it is a lattice design (which can be a problem when you put a glass on it) and they are very sturdy and well made. They were simple to put together and the tools needed to do that were included in the packaging. Nice, high quality table for a very reasonable price.
Comparison shopped. Quality good as well as price. Solid and adjustable legs. Quality finish and as result looks more expensive. No comparison to what saw in stores. Fast delivery. Easy assembly for female. Everyone seeing it thought good looking and asked where to purchase.
The table is on my patio with the matching chaise. they are lovely, practical, stable and of high quality. They are impressive to visitors
We bought this for an end table for outside. Looks nice with the chairs and other tables. Little bit of rust or tarnish where the metal looks weaved. It can handle being outside but probably best being covered from the rain.

Residual is 58% for 12k a year.
I asked to lower the payment but they said my upfront costs of $1043.97 were there reason the monthly was higher. What is a good price point to shoot for?
Hi Car_Man
I'm looking for some assistance on the deal presented to me by one of my local FL dealers.
Acura 2013 ILX Premium Lease
MSRP = $30,600 (with pro pack-not sure what that means?)
Residual Value= 58% ($17.455.10)
Miles/year = 12k
Lease Term = 36 months
Money Factor: .00024
Total = $300.14 a month w/ tax ($280.50 plus $19.64 tax)
$1,626.18 out of pocket ($300.14 first payment, $799 doc or dealer fee, $453.50 tag fees, $73.54 upfront taxes.)
It seems a little high to me, his MSRP is $505 higher than what I found, and the dealer/doc fee is high, and tag and tax fees?
I would appreciate any assistance before I proceed. Thank you very much!
Hi jayinsrq. the money factor that you were quoted is spot on. That's a good thing.
Having said that, you never mentioned a selling price for this car. the selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Without this number, it is more difficult to tell how large a dealer discount you are being given...and in turn if there's any room left to negotiate.
If I was in the market for an ILX right now, I personally would shoot for a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over dealer invoice minus the $1,000 dealer cash that is currently available on the ILX Premium model. You can look up the invoice price for this car in the following section of Edmunds.com: New Vehicle Pricing.

No problem, jayinsrq. It happens all the time. The dealer invoice price of this car is $28,402. If we subtract the available $1,000 dealer cash from that it drops to $27,402. The selling price that you were quoted is significantly under that...$26,573. That's a very good deal.

How do u guys think of this deal? I am going to to Acura dealer tmr here in CA...
Car Man, I'm trying to determine whether the following is a good deal from a FL dealer for a lease on an ILX with Tech Package: 36 months / 10,000 miles per year.
Sales Price: $30,167.73
Gov't Fees: $467.50
Proc/Doc Fees: $664.50
Acquisition Fee: $595.00
Gross Cap Cost: $31,360.73
Money Factor is 0.00024
Residual is 59%
$0 Down Monthly Payment is: $379
$1000 Down Monthly Payment is: $349
$2000 Down Monthly Payment is: $319
The gov't and proc/doc fees seem high compared to other fees I've seen posted in the forum. Are these required fees that must be paid by the dealership, or are they negotiable?
Thanks in advance.
I have been reading this forum for many years, first time posting, we leased Acura ILX 2013 with tech package in the beginning of the month. I got this deal
First payment $300
35 more payments of $299.97
10000 miles per year
Above payment includes all taxes title and Lic. We are in TX (Dallas Area).
I did all the deal on the email and phone and went to the dealership to pick the car, made my first payment on the phone with a credit card.

Can you provide more specifics re: your lease deal? I am negotiating for an ILX currently (sign and drive), but the best I have received thus far is $299/mo for the Base, $339/mo Premium and $344/mo Tech. Whatever you're willing to share would be appreciated to help me in my negotiations.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Litigator,
What exactly you want to know,
Sale Price 28170
Aq. Fee 595
Tax 338.04
Doc Fee 125

36 month / $0 down (sign/drive; dealer pays all fees and first month payment) / 10,000 miles per year for $320 mo (including tax).
Thanks to everyone for all of the information in this forum. It was very helpful in my negotiations.
lovecars003 Posts: 1Hi Guys,
I'm new to this forum, but I am in need of help with my first lease deal! Here's my scenario:
I bought a car about 7 months ago (big mistake), and now I hate it. I went in to see the 2013 Acura ILX w/ Premium package. I loved it. After going back and forth with two dealers they gave me a quote at $26,545 (price of car). It's a lease deal for 10k miles year at 36 months. Once they added my negative equity which is about $3,000 the payment came out to $390.00. Do you guys think this is a good deal? Also, how is Acura with their leases? Thanks!
Hi litigator. The money factor that you were quoted looks good. Let's take a look at the selling price.
The dealer invoice pice of a 2013 ILX Tech is $30,438. If we subtract the available $1,750 dealer cash from that it drops to $28,688. The selling price that you were quoted is nearly $1,500 higher than that before taking into account the doc fee. That seems a little expensive to me.

Splash, Trickle, And Flow
This is the volume of water that needs to be pumped from one pool to another in order for a water feature (e.g., waterfall) to function. Initial designers often overlook the issue of the relationship between the surface areas of the pools connected by weirs in a multi-level water feature. When the pump is turned off (e.g., daily between 2 a.m. and 7 a.m.), the lowest pool has to be able to collect the "water in transit" in a short period of time. If the area of the lowest pool is significantly smaller than the combined area of all other pools, then provision for a surge tank may be necessary to collect the excess water. This common solution may significantly complicate the mechanical design of the system, and considerably raise the cost of installation and operation of the feature. When the pump is turned on, the collected water from the lowest pond or surge tank is necessary to rapidly raise the water level in the upper pools, allowing the waterfall to start flowing again. For example, raising the water level by a ¼ inch (a common measure in designed waterfalls) in a 100-square-foot upper pool requires lowering the water level by 1 inch from the lowest pool of a 25-square-foot area. Similarly, if the area relationship of the top pool to the lowest one is 50:1, the water level in the lowest pool will have to drop by 12-1/2 inches for the same ¼-inch waterfall increase. That necessary fluctuation of the water level in the lowest pond or the surge tank has to be anticipated during the conceptual-design development.
Weir Design And Construction
Difficulties of construction and required flow of "water in transit" (volume at a calculated velocity) are the two main implications directly related to length of weirs. A ¼-inch thick waterfall requires approximately 10 gallons per minute (GPM) for every foot of weir length. Therefore, a 50-foot-long weir requires pumping ± 500 GPM from the lowest to the top pond, which is a considerable amount of water (imagine water moving in a full 6-inch diameter line at ± 5-1/2 feet per second). If this feature is designed to operate every day, the monthly cost of energy required will be significant. Decreasing that flow will reduce the thickness of the waterfall, potentially turning it into a trickle.
Another significant issue is the contractor's ability to provide the required precision while constructing the weir from specified materials (i.e., concrete or stone). Keep in mind that the entire edge of a weir has to maintain a constant level, with variations not exceeding half of the thickness of the waterfall. Running a 1/8-inch thick sheet of water (for a gentle waterfall flowing on a 3-degree battered wall) requires variations in the weir level to be less than 1/16-inch. Otherwise, the water may not be distributed evenly along the edge, leaving undesired, visible patterns of dry and concentrated water flow along the weir.
Water Migration
The cross-section shape of the weir edge also plays a significant role in the water-flow characteristics. A sharp edge (i.e., 90-degree angle) will (depending on velocity) allow for water to detach from the weir's edge and freely fall. A gently rounded edge (e.g., 3-inch radius) allows water to "hug" the weir's surface and keep flowing on a battered waterfall's wall, thus significantly reducing the splash.
The electrostatic charge of water droplets allows them to migrate sideways along the smooth walls and horizontal edges, resulting in effects similar to splash. A vertical saw-cut or a corner forces water to run along its edge. Therefore, any patterns on walls (reveals in concrete or on stone facing) near the weirs will affect migration of water. Typically a sandblasted, vertical concrete wall with no reveals will allow water to migrate sideways from both sides of the weir at a 45- to 60-degree angle.
Pool Depth
Shallow pools (e.g., 3 inches) create difficulties in sourcing mechanical fittings, which are shallow enough to be installed below or at water level. Also, the sun warms the water in a shallow pond faster than in a deep one, thus increasing complications related to algae and other water microorganisms. In most jurisdictions, pond depth exceeding 18 inches is considered hazardous and requires safety fencing. Designing pools between 12 and 18 inches deep appears to be the most practical approach.
Color Selection
The color of the pond's walls and floor affects visual perception of the feature, and may also significantly impact the cost of its maintenance. Dark pools are perceived as deeper and also mask small amounts of dust and organic debris suspended in the water and on the floor, thus requiring less-frequent cleaning. Swimming pool-like colors invite people to wade and play with water, which may expose the owner to liabilities related to water sanitation. On the other hand, dark pools accumulate more heat from the sun, and are more susceptible to chlorine or calcium-deposit stains.

Drive Clean Across TX Hybrid SUV Contest Ends Sunday
The deadline is Sunday, September 20, for entering the Drive Clean Across Texas online sweepstakes to win a brand-new Ford Escape Hybrid SUV. The sweepstakes is part of the state's annual campaign to encourage drivers to take simple steps to improve air quality.
Driving a low-emission vehicle, like a hybrid, is one thing drivers can do to reduce air pollution, according to campaign officials with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. This year's campaign is partnering with NAPA Auto Parts, which is providing the hybrid vehicle. The lucky winner will receive the keys to the new hybrid SUV at the Dallas Cowboys' Valley Ranch headquarters in a ceremony later this fall.
In addition to encouraging the purchase of low-emission vehicles, Drive Clean Across Texas encourages motorists to commit to implementing cost-saving, no-cost, and low-cost changes in their driving and vehicle maintenance behaviors to reduce harmful vehicle emissions.
"Doing things like getting a tune up and keeping your tires properly inflated improves gas mileage and reduces vehicle emissions," says TxDOT's Richard Goldsmith. "And they also give you some relief at the gas pump. They're good for the air and good for your wallet."

Golden Seeking Electricians, Plumbers To Volunteer In Gerritsen Beach
Posted By Ned Berke On November 7, 2012 @ 4:00 pm In News & Features | 9 Comments
The following is a press release from the offices of State Senator Marty Golden. We have asked that, if he gets a strong response, he also deploy these volunteers to the bungalows and coops around Emmons Avenue, many of which are still without power, heat or hot water.
State Senator Martin J. Golden (R-C-I, Brooklyn) today is calling on all New York City licensed electricians and plumbers to help the residents of Brooklyn's Gerritsen Beach, who are still without electricity and gas, more than a week after Hurricane Sandy, by volunteering to complete the simplified turn-on request process announced this morning.
Senator Golden is inviting all plumbers and electricians to answer the call to help by contacting the Gerritsen Beach Volunteer Fire Department at (718) 332-9292 [1] or visit the Vollies starting today at 43 Seba Avenue. Senator Golden is noting that almost every home needs such inspections so there is a great and urgent need for these licensed professionals.
Senator Marty Golden stated, "A process has been set up so that homeowners can have their homes inspected so to restore electrical and gas service so that we can turn the lights on and the heat on. The people of Gerritsen Beach need the help of our City and I am asking anyone who has time and would be willing to help their fellow New Yorkers in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, to come forward and assist at this time."
Senator Golden has also received and will be distributing documents from the New York City Department of Buildings and Con Edison that outlines the process residents must take in getting back into your homes.
For more information, contact Senator Golden's office at (718) 238-6044 [2] or email at firstname.lastname@example.com [3].

ATLANTA, October 19, 2013 — The National Football League lost a legend as Bum Phillips entered oblate spheroid heaven at age 90. The former Houston Oilers and New Orleans Saints coach and father of Houston Texans defensive coordinator Wade Phillips was more than just a great coach. He was one of the all time great characters.
With his jeans, cowboy boots and ten gallon hat, he was Texas football. While he never got to the Super Bowl, he remained a beloved figure long after he retired. He was always good for a quote, with an occasional malaprop thrown in.
SEE RELATED: Peyton to burn down Lucas Oil Stadium: NFL 2013 Week 7 Live Chat
Bum Phillips led the Houston Oilers to the AFC Title Game in both 1978 and 1979, but they could not get past the Steel Curtain that formed the Pittsburgh Steelers dynasty. In all fairness, neither did any other team. Phillips often remarked that it did not take a genius to hand the ball to running back Earl Campbell. Phillips and Campbell had the fans chanting "Luv Ya Blue" in the deafening Astrodome.
After a 1980 playoff loss to the Oakland Raiders, Phillips was fired by owner Bud Adams. Many of the fans never forgave Adams. Adams would become more hated after moving the team to Nashville and renaming them the Tennessee Titans, but many other fans long before that declared Bum's firing the last straw (hat). Houston eventually received an expansion team known as the Texans, but plenty of fans still want the return of the name and colors of the Oilers. Adams owns those rights.
Bum was not on the coaching unemployment line for long. As soon as Adams axed him, another suitor was waiting.
Bum then took over a Saints team that had never had a winning season or made the playoffs. In the last game of the 1983 season, the Saints and Rams met with everything on the line. Both teams were 8-7, and a win would give the Saints their first winning season, division crown and playoff birth. In one of the most bizarre games ever played, the Saints defense gave up zero touchdowns. Yet the Saints offense gave up two interceptions for touchdowns, a punt return for a touchdown, and a safety. On the last play of the game, the Saints led 24-23 and the Rams lined up for a 42-yard field goal. A sign in the crowd read, "It ain't over 'till the fat man spits."
SEE RELATED: Houston Texans Matt Schaub might not be as bad as you think
In sheer heartbreaking fashion, the kick was good for the 26-24 Rams win. Phillips quietly spit on the ground as the announcer solemnly intoned "and the Saints have still never had a winning season."
Yet Phillips was a winner. His overall coaching record including the playoffs was 85-80. He was also a winner among the many people who loved his folksy nature and crazy sayings.
"You can't practice being miserable."
"Don Shula? Now there's a good football coach. He can take his'n and beat your'n, or he can take your'n and beat his'n."
"There are two types of coaches: them that's been fired and them that are gonna be fired."
"Two kinds of ballplayers aren't worth a darn: One that never does what he's told and one who does nothing except what he's told."
"I joined the Marine Corps. I learned my lesson. I never joined anything again in my life. I went in as a private and, 31 months later, I came out a private. I thought they couldn't win that war without me. Then I got in there and I thought they couldn't win because of me. I was no hero. The guys who died fighting were the heroes. And the Marine Corps was real spit and polish. I wasn't."
He said he took his wife, Wade's mother, with him on road games because she was to ugly to kiss goodbye.
In retirement, he said, "I don't do a damn thing, and I don't start that until Noon."
Like many southerners, beneath the homespun charm and drawl was a man with a ton of brains. He taught defense to many football understudies, and his son remains one of the most respected defensive coordinators in the game.
More importantly, Bum Phillips brought love and passion and entertainment to a game that thrives on characters. He honored the game of football, and the love and remembrances from fans reflect the measure of the man.
Now he is in the lord's favorite sportsbar, with his hat on the next stool. Always the gentleman, he took it off indoors.

Rosberg, who drives for German Football Association sponsors Mercedes, had shown his 712,000 followers on Twitter a picture of the planned helmet in the German colours with four stars and the golden trophy on top. "This will be my Hockenheim World Cup special edition helmet with the FIFA trophy. How do you like it?," the German had asked fans still celebrating Germany's 1-0 triumph over Argentina in the final in Brazil last weekend. The helmet infringed world soccer body FIFA's copyright however and Rosberg's spokesman Georg Nolte confirmed that the image of the trophy would not now appear. A new version, shown to reporters, featured one big star with a 14 inside it and three smaller stars denoting Germany's four world championships. "All the things you have to think about, It's amazing," commented Rosberg. "Even a trophy has its trade mark or whatever. "That was a surprise but of course I fully understand," said the German. "It was a pity because it looked really cool with the trophy on top. Now it has a big star and nobody can take that away. The star is ours." Car manufacturer Hyundai – who are one of the official sponsors of the world cup tournament – was behind the complaint according to Auto Motor und Sport. Rosberg, who signed a contract extension with Mercedes earlier this week, leads British team mate Lewis Hamilton by four points ahead of Sunday's race – which marks the halfway point in the season.

Hi Dr Lam!
I've watched your video about creating a balanced cheeks - it was very informative, thank you! I found the section about blending away the "stripe" of the lower cheek to be most interesting.
I'm curious to know if injecting fat or fillers to the cheek actually creates a mild cheek-lift? Compared to the Endotine midface-lift where (as you know) the fat pad is released and repositioned back to a more youthful position, how can a similar effect be achieved with adding volume?
In the instance where a person has heavy lower cheeks and a prominent nasiolabial fold, how do you add volume without making the person appear to be storing walnuts in their mouth & cheeks? (I refer to Fergie the pop singer - I understand if you cannot elaborate on this Dr Lam! However, to me, she appears to be filled in the cheek area, but it doesn't give her that "triangle effect". She looks distorted and overly full in the whole face).
Does the malar fat pad move down due to gravity over the years? Or does muscle lose tone too? Or is overall volume loss in the upper cheek responsible for making the sagging cheek pad look worse?
Thanks so much Dr Lam

It is the mark of the cultured man that he is aware of the fact that equality is an ethical and not a biological principleAshley Montagu
Equality, rightly understood as our founding fathers understood it, leads to liberty and to the emancipation of creative differences; wrongly understood, as it has been so tragically in our time, it leads first to conformity and then to despotismBarry Goldwater
If liberty and equality, as is thought by some, are chiefly to be found in democracy, they will be best attained when all persons alike share in government to the utmost.Aristotle
Equality is the public recognition, effectively expressed in institutions and manners, of the principle that an equal degree of attention is due to the needs of all human beings.Simone Weil

Equality...is the result of human organization. We are not born equal.Hannah Arendt
Equality is. one of the most consummate scoundrels that ever crept from the brain of a political juggler--a fellow who thrusts his hand into the pocket of honest industry or enterprising talent, and squanders their hard-earned profits on profligate idleness or indolent stupidity.James Kirke Paulding
Equality is the life of conversation; and he is as much out who assumes to himself any part above another, as he who considers himself below the rest of society.Sir Richard Steele
Come forward, some great marshal, and organize equality in society, and your rod shall swallow up all the juggling old court gold-sticksWilliam Makepeace Thackeray
Courage consists in equality to the problem before us.Ralph Waldo Emerson
One of the things about equality is not just that you be treated equally to man, but that you treat yourself equally to the way you treat a man.Marlo Thomas

PHILADELPHIA —Trent Edwards beat out Mike Kafka for the third-string quarterback job with the Philadelphia Eagles. Andre Johnson Elite Jersey . Kafka was released Friday afternoon, leaving Edwards and rookie Nick Foles behind Michael Vick on the depth chart. "There was great competition at the quarterback position," Eagles coach Andy Reid said. "Thats what football and training camp is all about. In the end, we had to make the difficult decision to let Mike Kafka go. Mike is a class act, a student of the game and a great person and I think hell have no problem finding a job in the National Football League very soon." Kafka, a fourth-round pick out of Northwestern in 2010, appeared in four games last year. He completed 11 of 16 passes for 107 yards with two interceptions. Kafka played in one preseason game this summer before breaking his non-throwing hand. Edwards, a 28-year-old veteran, had an impressive month after sitting out 2011. He completed 54 of 80 passes (68 per cent) for 489 yards, with four touchdowns and no interceptions. Edwards started 32 games for Buffalo and one for Jacksonville in four seasons, going 14-19. He completed 60.5 per cent of his passes for 6,019 yards and 26 touchdowns and 30 interceptions. He was released last preseason by Oakland and didnt find a job until the Eagles signed him in February. "Im proud of the way Trent Edwards conducted himself since the early days of the off-season workouts," Reid said. "He had to fight for everything he earned this summer. He improved each and every day and made the most of every opportunity." Foles, a third-round pick from Arizona, was outstanding in the preseason. He finished 40 for 63 for 553 yards with six touchdowns and two interceptions for a 110.1 passer rating. Veteran defensive backs Joselio Hanson and O.J. Atogwe of Windsor, Ont., were among 19 other players released. Hanson spent the last six seasons in Philadelphia and was the teams nickel cornerback. Atogwe signed as a free agent in the off-season, but couldnt crack the starting lineup at safety. Wide receivers Chad Hall, Mardy Gilyard and Marvin McNutt and linebacker Keenan Clayton are other notables on the cut list. The Eagles still must make two more moves to reach the 53-player limit. Tight ends Brett Brackett and Chase Ford, defensive tackles Ollie Ogbu, Frank Trotter and Landon Cohen, fullback Emil Igwenagu, tackle D.J. Jones, linebackers Adrian Moten and Ryan Rau, defensive end Monte Taylor, safety Phillip Thomas and offensive linemen Steve Vallos and Brandon Washington also were released. Arian Foster Womens Jersey . Mathieu, a Heisman Trophy finalist, and Claiborne were joined on the All-America team by Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III of Baylor and finalists Montee Ball of Wisconsin and Trent Richardson of Alabama. Johnathan Joseph Jersey . —Rafael Nadal, playing singles for the first time in six weeks, advanced to the third round of the BNP Paribas Open with a 6-1, 6-3 victory over Argentinas Leonardo Mayer on Sunday. http://www.texansteamstore.com/ . After advancing to the second round of the playoffs three straight years, the Hawks were eliminated in the first round with Thursday nights Game 6 loss at Boston. Owen Daniels Jersey . The loss officially eliminates the Canadian pair from doubles competition, who lost their opening match to the No. 1-ranked Chinese team on Saturday. Only the top two teams from each group advance to the next round. Ben Tate Jersey . The mens soccer team went to Panama looking to extend its lead atop the CONCACAF qualifying group, but a lacklustre effort on hostile ground resulted in a 2-0 loss to a far more energetic opponent.Is it really a possibility? Could Canada host the FIFA World Cup? It seems a very long shot, but as a soccer fan theres no harm in dreaming. So when FIFA President Sepp Blatter told me in Ottawa on Friday that he believes the the country is ready for such a big event, some of the obstacles that seem to prevent that happening appeared to get slightly smaller. Blatter was in Ottawa to announce the host cities for the 2015 Womens World Cup which is being played in Canada. He said he sees no reason why the country couldnt be successful with a bid for the FIFA World Cup in 2026, and believes hosting the Womens tournament could be a stepping stone towards that. Despite the criticism he receives from all corners of the globe, Blatter is a wise man. He knows exactly what to say when visiting a country and with his politician-like responses he fit right in on Parliament Hill. So we shouldnt get too excited just yet. "Canada was very close as a candidate in the last stage for the 1986 World Cup along with the United States and Mexico," said Blatter when we chatted in the House of Commons following the announcement. "Canada was close then, but that would have been premature. "Now with the Womens World Cup in 2015, with the new stadia they have in Canada, I am sure they are ready to organize the big competition and it would be fine. The next one open would be in 2026 so they would have to wait 10 years but then they could be a candidate." If Canada chose to bid to host the World Cup in 2026 they would likely have to battle against the United States who lost to Qatar in the race to host the 2022 tournament. There is a lot that would need to happen before Canada could be considered as a host. Right now it seems highly unlikely but with FIFA its impossible to rule anything out. Blatter has lofty goals for the outcome of the 2015 womens tournament. He went as far as to say that it should be a stepping stone towards the country launching a professional womens league. "This is a wonderful opportunity for Canada," he said. "It is a chance for the whole country to present to the World a rendezvous of the best of the best in womens football. It is not only good for football but for the whole population. "This competition must leave a legacy behind, and that legacy should be that the whole population will know about womens football and Canada will have a professional womens league." During his press conference on Friday, Blatter stated that the impact of hosting the Womens World Cup could leave a bigger legacy than the Olympics. He pointed to the fact that the tournament doesnt just centre around one area of the country, instead spreading from coast to coast with venues stretching from Moncton and Vancouver, thereby touching more people on an individual basis. However, when 2015 rolls around and the eyes of the soccer world are on Canada, Toronto will be completely bypassed. There are a few reasons behind the citys decision not to bid to host matches including the fact the Pan Am Games will be taking place that summer in the Greater Toronto Area, but all parties that are invested in BMO Field should have done everything they could to ensure the countrys national soccer stadium was available to play a part in the event. That said; Im sure the six host cities will do Canada proud, and will put on a great show for the worlds soccer fans to enjoy. Major League Let Down Soccer fans in Toronto havent oonly missed an opportunity with the Womens World Cup, but they are also being badly let down by the citys Major League Soccer team. Whitney Mercilus Jersey. . Toronto now owns the MLS record for the worst ever start to a season after falling to an eighth straight defeat on Saturday against DC United. The fact that five of those matches have been at home makes the run even more galling. Throughout the terrible run of results, head coach Aron Winter has remained upbeat, talking of progress being made and a long-term vision but there was very little good to note from Saturdays performance. The most alarming part of the day was the way in which Winters tactics were criticised by players post game. Ryan Johnson spoke in very strong terms about his disappointment that the team played in such a defensive manner in the first 45 minutes following on from a similar performance in Montreal on Wednesday in the Canadian Championship. Of course, its a results business – but it is also about entertaining. People spend their hard earned dollars to support their team, but also to enjoy their time at the stadium. On Saturday, the home side provided zero entertainment. In four of their five home matches at BMO Field this year, they havent even scored a goal. While Toronto continues to struggle in its sixth season, Canadas two newest MLS clubs are leaving the Reds in the rear-view mirror. In just their second MLS season, Vancouver Whitecaps continue their turnaround and currently sit in a playoff position in the Western Conference. Saturdays match against San Jose Earthquakes proved the Whitecaps have the ability to match anyone in the league on their day. Most importantly, after a few weeks where they have been grinding out results based on strong defensive displays, the win over the Quakes showcased Vancouvers ability to attack and entertain. The relief was evident on the face of Eric Hassli when he broke his MLS goal drought by burying the last minute winner, but the scenes of jubilation around BC Place were infectious. While the Whitecaps were entertaining their home fans, Montreal Impact were busy causing one of the upsets of the season. Coach Jesse Marsch made a number of changes to his line-up as he looks to keep players fresh for the Canadian Championship match i

Sneed exclusive: Gov. Quinn targets business tax loophole to raise $100 million
By MICHAEL SNEED firstname.lastname@example.com March 5, 2013 10:58PM
Gov. Pat Quinn
Article Extras
Updated: April 7, 2013 1:30PM
Sneed exclusive . . .
Scoopsville . . .
The Quinn bin: Gov. Pat Quinn is running with scissors again.
Sneed has learned Quinn, who will release his state budget Wednesday, plans to roll out a proposal that may give major corporations doing business in the state agita — but could pay the state's debt more quickly.
◆ Translation: Quinn wants to temporarily suspend a $100 million tax loophole enabling major corporations that produce good outside the state to shield a portion of their income from taxation under the Illinois tax code.
◆ The loophole lop: "The governor feels this is no time for ineffective loopholes, when the state has bills to pay," said a Sneed source. "The suspension would only be temporary, but it will enable the governor, who inherited billions of dollars in unpaid bills from decades of fiscal mismanagement — compounded by the worst recession — to pay down the debt faster," the source added.
◆ The office cut: Quinn will also be slashing his office budget for the fifth year in a row, cutting nearly $2 million from his office spending since he took office. (He cut the budget by 9 percent in 2012 and plans to cut an additional 5 percent this year.)
It's in the bag . . .
Robin Kelly, Dem winner of the special primary to fill Jesse Jackson Jr.'s vacated congressional seat, is already working on her anti-gun agenda — despite the fact she has yet to fill Triple J's shoes.
◆ Explanation: Sneed hears Kelly, who won thanks to $2.2 million in spending by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's gun control super PAC, met Thursday with good Bloomberg buddy Mayor Rahm Emanuel to discuss pitching gun control in Springfield and Washington, D.C.
Ye royal Kate . . .
Duhhhh, dear me! Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, has been politically correct in the preggers department by referring to her baby as "it" — that is, until a slight slip Tuesday, when she was heard uttering the sound "my d---" before cutting herself off in mid-sentence while accepting a white teddy bear as a gift for the baby.
The Anthony file . . .
The American nightmare? Casey Anthony, who has basically been living in hiding since her acquittal in the killing of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, recently said at a Florida bankruptcy hearing that she has been living off unsolicited donations . . . and she takes the bus, accepts free food from her friends, and does not pay rent or utilities. Be still my tongue.
A pox on you . . .
Babs blab: In case you are interested, TV tsarina Barbara Walters revealed on "The View" Tuesday that she contracted chicken pox by planting a smooch on an old friend, actor Frank Langella, at a New Year's party — Langella came down with chicken pox (shingles) shortly thereafter. Well guess what, Babs, you're still contagious — which could be especially dangerous to women who might become pregnant.
The men's room . . .
It's so pathetic: Puleeeeeze. How low can you go: In an effort to regain his political foothold after his foot fault cheating on his wife and lying to his constituency, former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford asked his former wife, Jenny, a brilliant political strategist and former Winnetkan, to run his campaign comeback for an open congressional seat. (She said no.) Surprised he hasn't asked her to be his wedding planner.
The sweet side . . .
Ruff & Rahm: Mayor Rahm Emanuel's alleged sweet side, which was tipped by his outgoing Chief of Staff Theresa Mintle, popped up courtside at the St. Sabina Peace Tournament championship game on Monday night at the church, when hizzoner stopped to peek-a-boo a baby and got goo-gooed by the infant, who hungrily grabbed his face and mouth.
Sneedlings . . .
Bench press: Former U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald has chalked up another honor — he was named the inaugural Feirson Distinguished Lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School . . . Wednesday's birthdays: Shaquille O'Neal, 41; Connie Britton, 46, and Peter J. O'Brien, 84.

This class will be a dynamic vinyasa practice, intended to ground and center through connecting breath and movement. Using the breath as a guide, we will flow through sun saluations and asanas (yoga poses), concentrating on alignment to build strength, flexibility, and mind-body awareness. I plan on tailoring the class to the students individual needs. Themes of self care will be integrated into the class, focusing on healing and taking time to relax and restore the body. Some yoga experience preferred but not totally neccessary.
