Missin' my CDs already!!
We're going out of town to visit relatives this week (leaving Monday). They told me I could bring my CDs, but I was sort of scared of buildup since I don't have that problem now and they have well water and I don't want to start problems when I'm on vacation, KWIM? So I decided to go with sposies for the week. I had an opened pack that I figured I'd use up before DS outgrows them anyway.
This morning I was almost out of clean dipes, so I went ahead and did my diaper load and put DS into a sposie so I wouldn't have to do another load today (I have 3 more loads of clothes to do as it is before we can pack). DH came in right when I was changing him, and he was like, "why are you putting that on him?" Which makes me happy because I feel like he gets it now!
First thing, DS had a major poopy blowout, that shot out the leg (I didn't have the whatever turned out, it had gotten tucked in somehow.) So I went and changed him. thankfully disaster was averted that time because I didn't have pants on him yet. We went to WM to get tires balanced and I had DS in his sling. Low and behold, another rumble and squirt. This time it shot up the back. I hope I don't have this to look forward to all week.
I have to admit, it is nice for his pants to fit over a diaper, but it doesn't make up for soft, cushy, cute cloth!! Plus, I have a feeling I'm going to be using my Shout spray a lot more often this week! LOL! I miss CDing so much already! I have a feeling this week is going to really make me appreciate it more!
I'll miss you mamas this week! And I hope I don't miss out on anything fun on HC. But my wallet will appreciate it. However, we're making a stop at Cotton Babies, so I may make up for it...
Re: Missin' my CDs already!!
I bet the week will go by fast and before you know it, your bubbs will be bak in fluff! We'll miss you, too!

1994 Volvo 940 Question: No charge
Answer #1Bret Bodas from RepairPal Test Shop, May 26, 2010, 09:13Master
The voltage regulator is built in to the alternator. Perform a voltage drop test on you battery cables, and especially the ground and + cable to the alternator.
Here is some info on how to perform this test: http://www.excelauto.com/online/Tech.d/altvdt.html
ReplyTerika.Maskelah, July 29, 2010, 17:00Rookie
I am having the same issue with a 1995 940 wagon. Changed the alternator and the car still lost power and the battery didn't charge. I had the old alternator and battery tested and they both passed. I was told by a guy at anauto parts store near my home that this car has an external Voltage Regulator and he was even able to give me a price on it. Problem is...I can't find the Voltage Regulator!!! LOL.
Was the sales guy wrong or does my car really have an external Voltage Regulator?

(Updates with comments on Suzuki partnership beginning in 10th paragraph.)
Oct. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Volkswagen AG, Europe's largest automaker, said third-quarter operating profit surged 46 percent on demand for Audi and VW brand sport-utility vehicles.
Operating profit advanced to 2.89 billion euros ($4.05 billion) from 1.99 billion euros a year earlier, the Wolfsburg, Germany-based company said today. Profit beat the 2.61 billion- euro average estimate of 15 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. The shares rose the most in more than two years.
Chief Executive officer Martin Winterkorn is expanding in China and the U.S. in a bid to surpass Toyota Motor Corp. as the world's biggest carmaker. The German manufacturer has a goal of boosting deliveries 11 percent this year to a record 8 million vehicles. VW stuck to a forecast that 2011 Ebit and revenue will be "significantly higher" than last year.
"VW's business remains very solid," said Frank Schwope, a NordLB analyst in Hanover, Germany, who recommends buying the stock. "They're headed for a massive profit this year. The good performance should continue through the first half of 2012."
Volkswagen rose as much as 12.15 euros, or 10.3 percent, to 130.35 euros, the most since Aug. 19, 2009, and was up 9.2 percent as of 2:23 p.m. in Frankfurt trading. The shares have gained 6.3 percent this year, valuing the German company at 55.6 billion euros.
Production Expansion
VW and Audi have expanded SUV production in the past quarter to meet high demand. Audi suspended summer holidays at its main factory in Ingolstadt, Germany, to maintain output of the Q5 SUV and extended around-the-clock production of the Q7 model in Bratislava, Slovakia. VW added shifts to increase production of the Tiguan compact SUV.
Third-quarter net income more than tripled to 7.04 billion euros. Profit was impacted by a gain from the revaluation of an option linked to VW's planned combination with Porsche SE. Revenue gained 25 percent to 38.5 billion euros.
"Our strong business performance shows the strength and stability of our strategy," Winterkorn said in a statement. "In light of the current economic uncertainties, we are continuing to monitor developments in the global automotive markets extremely closely."
Daimler AG, the world's third-largest maker of luxury vehicles, today reported a decline in quarterly profit for the first time in two years on slowing sales growth and costs for new models. PSA Peugeot Citroen, Europe's second-largest carmaker, yesterday cut its 2011 auto profit target and said it may eliminate as many as 3,500 jobs as pricing pressure rises.
Unraveling Partnership
VW's partnership with Suzuki Motor Corp. has deadlocked in recent months, with the Japanese manufacturer urging VW to sell back its 19.9 percent stake. VW has dismissed Suzuki accusations that it violated a cooperation accord by not sharing technology, and repeatedly said it plans to keep the holding.
Volkswagen said today that it no longer classifies Suzuki as an "associate," retracting wording that set off the downward spiral in the tie-up. VW enraged Suzuki by saying in its annual report in March that it could "significantly influence financial and operating policy decisions" at Suzuki.
"The opportunity to exert notable influence upon Suzuki is, for the time being, no longer available," Volkswagen said today, adding that it now lists Suzuki under "other holdings."
VW won European Union antitrust approval last month to take a majority stake in MAN SE. VW has been seeking closer links between MAN and Scania AB, also controlled by VW, with a goal of saving as much as 1 billion euros in annual costs.
A planned merger with Porsche SE is being held up by lawsuits in the U.S. and Germany, and investigations over accusations Porsche misled investors during a failed attempt to buy VW. Porsche has repeatedly denied all of the allegations.
Record Investments
The maker of the Golf hatchback, VW's best-selling vehicle, plans to invest a record 62.4 billion euros over the next five years on plants, models, research and development to underpin its global expansion. VW wants to hire more than 50,000 workers through 2018 as it targets more than 10 million autos per year.
VW's nine-month deliveries rose 14 percent to 6.1 million units, powered by a 15 percent increase in China and a 20 percent gain in the U.S. Sales of the namesake brand's models, such as the Golf and Polo subcompact, rose 12 percent to 3.8 million, while deliveries of Audi cars, including the revamped A6 and the Q5 SUV, increased 17 percent to 973,000 autos.
Audi's nine-month operating profit surged 74 percent to 3.96 billion euros, accounting for almost half of VW group gains. Profit at VW's namesake brand more than doubled to 3.3 billion euros while cost-cutting steps at Spanish division Seat helped shrink the loss by more than half to 101 million euros.
"We are on the right track with our strict cost and investment discipline and will systematically continue along this path," Chief Financial Officer Hans Dieter Poetsch said. "We have established a strong position and our sound finances mean we are well prepared for the future, even if this entails economic uncertainties."

December 21, 2014
ANDERSON COUNTY, Tenn. (WVLT)-- Friday was a special day for the family of Private First Class Everett McNabb and for East Tennessee. McNabb was wounded during his service in the U.S. Army in Korea, and then taken as a Prison of War for two years.
Now years later McNabb was honored for his service. His family was given a Purple Heart medal, a POW medal, Korean Service Honors, and the National Defense Service Medal.
McNabb's grandson Chad says his grandfather was never one to brag and never filled out the proper forms for the awards. Years later his family turned in the paperwork. They say they wish it had all happened sooner, but are so proud of their grandfather and happy he is getting the recognition he deserves.

text: Views from a Hill Conventional wisdom says that Jimmy Carter was a weak president who led the nation into a state of malaise, and then Ronald Reagan came along and made us believe in ourselves again. The conventional wisdom is firmly ensconced. Journalists, politicians, and mainstream historians all spout it. But it's not the truth. During the Carter presidency there was a brief moment when the window was open to the possibility of making some much needed change. Vietnam had left the country in bad shape—politically, economically, and psychologically. We were down, but it had nothing to do with Carter. That was already the situation when he came into office. He's been the only president in my lifetime who said openly that the country ran on some false assumptions. One of the most egregious is the idea that we can constantly raise our standard of living, that there can be endless economic growth. This is an impossibility logically, and he seems to have known it. Carter made some effort to get the country to understand that we were entering an era of limits. He tried to get people to take the energy situation seriously. He was vilified for telling the truth. Reagan came along and undid any progress Carter may have made toward opening up a discussion about reality. One of Reagan's first acts as president was to take down the solar panels that Carter had had installed on the White House roof—one of the most foolish symbolic moves any American president has ever made. He liked to say that "conservation just means we all freeze in the dark." It says a great deal about the man. He gave people simple answers and resold the people on the fantasy aspects of the American Dream. The prosperity that followed was all done on credit. As somebody once said, "we borrowed money from the Japanese and threw a party." There wasn't any new era of production, and in the end that's what creates real wealth. We've been living in Reagan's dream world ever since.

Metabolix Reports Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results And Provides Business Update
Total revenue in the second quarter of 2012 was $0.9 million, compared to $0.2 million for the comparable quarter in 2011. The second quarter revenue consisted primarily of revenue from government grants and product sales. Grant revenue of $0.5 million increased by $0.4 million over the same quarter of 2011, primarily as a result of work performed on the Company's $6.0 million DOE grant. Biopolymer product sales of $0.4 million were recorded during the Company's second quarter of 2012.
Cost of product revenue was $0.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 and primarily reflects the cost of product shipped to customers, warehousing costs to store over five million pounds of acquired Telles inventory, and freight expenses. Research and development expenses were $5.0 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to $6.0 million for the same period in 2011. The decrease of $1.0 million is primarily due to decreased employee compensation and benefits resulting from the Company's restructuring efforts in the first quarter of 2012, reduced research and development support and a decline in travel expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3.4 million for the second quarter of 2012 as compared to $4.2 million for the comparable quarter in 2011. The decrease of $0.8 million is also attributable to the Company's restructuring efforts in its first quarter of 2012, reduced legal expenses and a decline in travel expenses.
The Company reported a net loss of $7.9 million or $0.23 per share for the second quarter of 2012 as compared to a net loss of $10.0 million or $0.33 per share for the second quarter of 2011.
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $40.2 million compared to $0.5 million in the same period of 2011. The year-over-year increase was primarily related to $38.9 million in deferred revenue which was recognized as a result of the termination of the Telles joint venture in February of this year. Increases in grant and product revenues during the first six months of 2012 compared to the first six months of 2011 of $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, were partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in license and royalty fees received from Tepha, Inc., a related party.

Flushing, NY (Sports Network) - Kirk Nieuwenhuis smacked the game-winning three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning to help the New York Mets steal a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs in the finale of a three-game set at Citi Field.
The Cubs dominated most of the contest thanks to a superb outing from starter Matt Garza. However, holding a 3-0 advantage heading into the bottom half of the final frame, the Cubs sent Carlos Marmol (2-4) to the hill and stuck with the righty even after allowing Marlon Byrd to open the action with a solo shot and issuing a walk to Lucas Duda.
John Buck's single moved Duda to second before Omar Quintanilla's sacrifice bunt put runners on second and third. That's when Nieuwenhuis cranked Marmol's fastball offering over the right-field wall for the difference maker.
"We've been struggling lately, everyone knows that," Byrd said. "But again, we've been working hard and you're always waiting for something to happen and we got it going."
Bobby Parnell (5-3) picked up the unlikely win after tossing a 1-2-3 top of the ninth for the Mets, who had lost three straight and six of seven coming in.
Alfonso Soriano drove in one run for the Cubs, who scored two runs in the fifth off two errors on the same play. Garza allowed a mere three hits over seven scoreless frames to go along with five strikeouts.
"I tried to go down and the ball just stayed right down the middle," Added Marmol.
Chicago, which was looking for its first sweep versus the Mets since 2004, had a three-game winning streak come to an end.
Mets starter Jeremy Hefner lasted five innings and allowed three runs -- one earned -- on six hits, but New York failed to muster any type of offense for him.
The Cubs jumped on Hefner early in the first, as Luis Valbuena and Starlin Castro opened up the game with consecutive singles. After Nate Schierholtz grounded into a fielder's choice, advancing Valbuena to third, Soriano came through with a single to left to make it 1-0.
Chicago added two more runs in the fifth thanks to Castro and Schierholtz reaching with two outs on a single and a walk, respectively. The Mets then handed the visitors the runs. Soriano hit a slow chopper to third, David Wright overshot first base, and Daniel Murphy, who collected Wright's miscue, fired home past Buck for another error, allowing both runs to cross home for a 3-0 Cubs lead.

Stormers management under investigationComment on this story
Johannesburg – Southern hemisphere rugby body Sanzar says a judicial officer is considering a complaint of "match day misconduct" against the Stormers team management during a Super Rugby game against the Hurricanes in New Zealand two weeks ago.
Neither Sanzar nor South Africa's Stormers would say what the mysterious complaint related to. Sanzar stressed it would not comment beyond a two-sentence statement on Tuesday because the matter was before a judicial officer.
The Cape Town-based Stormers beat the Wellington-based Hurricanes 18-16 in the game in Palmerston North on April 26. An incident involving Stormers officials during the match at FMG Stadium is the subject of the complaint.
The Stormers are in Sydney to face the New South Wales Waratahs this weekend. The Hurricanes are in South Africa and play the Cheetahs on Friday. – Sapa-AP

I am renting a house and it has a open floor plan , i would like to do some room treatment as as i am afraid that without it the room will sound bad with my PSA xv15. Keep in mind that i can not do much but any advice or options would be nice.
Thanks guys , but i was was really looking for something cheaper as i may be moving in a year or buying else where. The Sub will be fixed due to location restrictions , it will be in what would be considered a near field setting.

Bill Maher says Ron Paul and Rand Paul have ruined libertarianism, also confuses Paul Ryan for a libertarianSubmitted by ron_paul_is_awesome on Sat, 04/06/2013 - 02:33
- Login to post comments
Bill Maher is Ann Coulter with a vagina...
and that's all I have to say about it.
That's all you need to say
well said! Thanks for the lol
Uninformed twit
But he's not interested in learning the truth, therefore, he will remain a cloddish dolt.
Just stop watching these people, including internet republished
videos. Don't give them any more air time. Bill Manure Maher certainly doesn't deserve any ratings for his consistency of spewing out lies. Stop sending these people your monetary votes. Let the democrats and progressives (only in name) have their little bubble of bullshit. When it pops and their worlds built on fake wealth all comes crumbling down, they will be begging people like us for the necessities in life. Promise you when the feds start raping Manure Maher's bank account his pretentious ignorant ass will be singing a different tune.
On no
Here is another conspiracy theory.
Liberty = Responsibility
Watch how the paid stooge
Watch how the paid stooge, hyena Mr. Maher laughed about the Ruby Ridge Massacre. This was back in 1992. He has been one of the minions for a long time. Fast forward to 33:46, but I would suggest anyone that hasn't watched this video to make time for it.
only one of the three pictured
is a libertarian: Dr. Ron Paul, who would destroy Maher in an intellectual debate, and he knows it.
What the heck does
commie Bill Maher know about libertarianism? Who watches and supports this puppet idiot? Turn him OFF.
Just what is in that nightstand Bill...
A Dildo you and Glen Beck share together?
even his lame audience didn't
even his lame audience didn't seem to want to clap when he started to diss Ron Paul.
"Let it not be said that no one cared, that no one objected once it's realized that our liberties and wealth are in jeopardy."
― Ron Paul
Bill just trying to keep his audience
from leaving his Obama loving show.
"Hey Bill" no one cares about your show.
I suspect they know paul ryan
I suspect they know paul ryan has nothing to do with, whatever you wanna call this,........... us?
leads me too two choices
Incomptence vs agenda
Neither one shining a good light
Social Security / Meat Inspectors
Maher thinks social security is compassionate but ultimately when the music stops on the ponzi scheme (a.k.a. "we run out of other people's money"), it leads to the opposite of compassion. That's where Maher is missing the point. He thinks that social security is an actual solution. It's not.
As far as meat inspectors, I think he did get the point at least. The free market will cause companies who are using unsafe practices to go out of business. He wasn't impressed by that point though.
I used to watch him quite a
I used to watch him quite a lot and really enjoyed the show, but his pseudo-intellectual arrogance slowly engulfed the air and I couldn't pretend it wasn't there.
Anyone notice he sounds great in all his rehearsed lines and arguments where he can pour his condescending half-serious-half-apathetic drivel over his words so his audience thinks he's saying something so true and meaningful, and when he's debating his guests where he has to actually use his intelligence, his main rebuttal to their arguments is "Aw Come on..."?
I'm not surprised he suggested Paul Ryan was a libertarian, Maher is simply one of them guys who declare themselves liberal because the GOP is full of crazy people and he wants to be associated with the opposite.
Bill is "sort of intelligent, but not really"
Hey Bill, you communist... I got another oxymoron for ya'...
Obama: Tyranny Impossible Because "Government is us."
Blind muthafukka
No Bill, clearly you just
No Bill, clearly you just shudder at the thought of personal responsibility and accountability. This is rich coming from someone who gave a million to the Obama campaign this past election. This is so typical, he threw a bone to the movement went it was in a state of rebirth and was still struggling to grow legs, but abandoned it and dismisses it now that it is gaining traction as a major ideological movement. He sums it up pretty well, he was a libertarian when he misinterpreted the movement as being about legal weed and privacy, but was scared away at the notion that with liberty comes responsibility and living within our means. Who is it that you say is stuck in their teen years? Sad to see how he progressed, especially considering he showed Ron Paul a lot of respect in the past.
I'll Give Him Credit For This
Even though I would have liked to have been able to respond to his points, I'll give him credit for these 2 points:
-At least he brings up rational points. The stop light and meat inspector things were legit concerns that many have. And him liking social security also seems compassionate (even though he doesn't understand it ultimately leads to tears).
-He does put his money where his mouth is (donating $1 million to Obama).
I think we should address his points one by one and maybe email the show? Probably won't do anything but I just wonder if Bill Maher is simply misguided (but at least not a shill).
If so, aren't these the types of people we have to win over intellectually?
here's your answer for traffic lights...
I'd rather have a bottle in front o' me than a frontal lobotomy
i couldn't get past the first
i couldn't get past the first sentence.
did someone post this before ?
did i say i couldn't get past the first sentence ?
anyways. i'm not listening to maher after the first sentence. not worth my time, it's more worth my time to type that it isn't worth my time.
Happy Easter everyone.
i know it was about 6 days ago. But i'm still feeling the effects from it.
Bill Maher does not know the
Bill Maher does not know the first thing of libertarianism. What he calls "libertarianism" is actually "liberalism."
"The Libertarian Lessons of South Park"
actually what he calls libertarianism is actually called
statism. He thinks that an entity with a monopoly on force, has the right to take your hard earnings and give it away to someone who has never worked a day in their life.

I purchased a sub compact 9mm today. Five out the door including tax. Purchased it for my wife to use in her fanny pack, but after working with it a little bit, she handed it back to me and said, you keep it.
I am a Glock guy, but I Do like the craftsmanship in anything marked Beretta. Super good gun company.
Lock the slide open, put in a full mag, and look at the lines of the cartridge pointing towards the barrel. My guess, any reasonable round is going to feed in that perfect union. OMG !
Can't afford an Italian sports car, go to the mall any get an Italian watch, then go to your LGS and get a Storm. Call it good as you drive your pick up truck.
PX4 Storm Full Size in 9mm ... love it. Just posted my first video review/demo on it.
9mm or 40SW?
Not getting into caliber wars.
Learn to shoot well, accurately and defensively and there is no difference.
Picked my PX4 Storm yesterday in .45. Very nice. Like most Berettas its smooth and solid. Very different feel from Glock 21. To me it rivals my 1911 in smoothness and feel. I am liking it after 300 rounds.
As posted in the other PX4 Storm thread:
I have the Type F Beretta PX4 Storm in 9mm. Purchased mine new back in Feb. of 2007. I keep a log on all my firearms, listing number of rounds fired, by whom, and comments. I have just under 2100 rounds through mine, and with every user on every outing, the "comment" line still says "100%"!
I own 11 handguns, and consider myself an XD man. But I have to say that the PX4 Storm has equaled, if not out performed, even some of the five XD's I own. I used the PX4 Storm in IDPA competitions for a while, and it was always dependable and plenty accurate. The "cam" lock up makes for a smooth running, quick to get back on target, setup.
I also own the CX4 Storm carbine in .40 S&W. It too, is ultra reliable and accurate.
"No one knows what it's like to be the badman"...-The Who
I have shot my friends storm in 9mm. They are very expensive over here. I really enjoyed the gun. I would not mind owning one. I own high quality pistols, and would consider the storm high quality. I think the rotating barrel is really cool. I welcome new ideas that actually work. I do not care if suppressors are a problem. Suppressors are illegal over here unless you are hunting pests in graveyards with a rifle. I am sure there is a few more exceptions. When you register a gun, the form does ask if it comes with a suppressor (actually it says silencer). Anyways I like the Storm.http://www.frankonia.de/199515/167513/productdetail.html?pagingSize=16&lastSelected=f_s_ marke&sortOption=f_n_sortmatrix_70_30_30_30&f_s_ma rke=Beretta&page=0&displayType=gallery&articleNumb er=141040&navCategoryId=6756http://www.frankonia.de/199515/167512/productdetail.html?pagingSize=16&lastSelected=f_s_ marke&sortOption=f_n_sortmatrix_70_30_30_30&f_s_ma rke=Beretta&page=0&displayType=gallery&articleNumb er=129584&navCategoryId=6756
Here is my .45. Great gun...
I have spent a lot of money on guns bullets and holsters... The rest I have just squandered...
I have a PX4 40 full size and a custom 9mm conversion barrel for it. The barrel was custom made by a friend. Shoots flawlessly with either barrel. Here it is with the 9mm barrel, a Burris FF III mounted on a Sight Mount rear sight. 40 rounds from 30 feet. Love it

I will be coaching and mentoring my Northwest JDRF Ride teammates on the 2014 Ride to Cure diabetes. I ride because of my friends and family who are living with diabetes every minute of every day. Yes I'm passionate about finding a cure to T1, the JDRF organization, healthy living, cycling and introducing new riders to the sport, coaching/teaching/helping others, community service and lots of good reasons, but when the chips are down my JDRF Ride friends would go to any length to help out and vice-versa. You know that old saying "come hell or high water"… how many times have you literally tested that saying? We have, from (hot as hell) Death Valley to (biblical flood) Tucson AZ we have been tested and I can assure you, we have overcome adversity together. We have each other's backs.
Let me tell you a short story to illustrate. 11 years ago I was walking down the stairs at work, a gentleman was walking up them, he glanced at my pump, up to me and stopped me. He said his son had just gotten a pump like mine and struck up a conversation and within 2-3 minutes we were best friends and I had my first NW JDRF Ride to Cure teammate. He shared with me a comment from his young: "when I was diagnosed with T1, my childhood ended". You don't say something like that to a stranger, you share that with a friend. I rode for his son the next year, I have ridden for Bess and Katie and Sean, my fellow T1 riders, my family and families diagnosed with T1, and they rode for me… because it's personal.
In our JDRF NW Ride group, we share our stories, our triumphs, our struggles, we support each other, we laugh, we cry, we ride together to cure diabetes… and it's personal. Thank you for your support and contribution to the JDRF so we can cure diabetes and turn Type One into type None !

Infrared detector arrays have focal plan processing in modular form mounted on stacked boards, where the processing integrated circuits are recessed in adjacent boards.
1. A modular multilayer detector interface comprising: a plurality of stacked circuit boards including, a plurality of modular integrated circuits mounted thereon, wherein said boards are of variable length and in juxtaposition and said boards have a recessed area for receiving the integrated circuit mounted on the board abutting said board, and lead means extending from said integrated circuit to one end of said board for connection to a detector.
The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalty thereon.
This invention relates generally to infrared detector arrays and more particularly to a modular multilayer detector interface for hybrid infrared focal planes.
Attempts to make hybrid infrared focal planes through the use of infrared detectors mated to the ends of multi-layer boards have resulted in many drawbacks. These multilayer boards consist of multiple layers of alternating metal and insulator material. The metal is in the form of numerous lines which connect individual detectors. The detectors from an array are joined to the ends of the lines which are exposed by cutting through all the layers in a plane. Since one layer of material is required for each row of detectors, many layers are required for any reasonably sized array. Hence a large area must be provided on the surface of individual layers for necessary signal processing circuitry, resulting in a large, expensive, fragile structure. Further, line lengths between the detector and its circuit become prohibitively long and yields of connected lines are reduced.
Multilayered large boards and their associated circuits are expensive to replace in that many functioning units will be discarded along with the malfunctioning circuit.
Using a modular approach for making connection to two dimensional infrared detector arrays, it is possible to place signal processing circuitry close to detectors thereby reducing the physical size of the boards and line lengths. Silicon integrated circuits are recessed into adjacent board modules which are mounted in a stacked fashion. The board material is more variable, and selected on the bases of thermal expansion match with the mated infrared detector materials.
Additionally, with the modular approach the yield of the final hybrid is increased since testing of electronics and the calibration of each detector for gain and offset is carried out on the modular level. The modular system allows focal planes of different sizes to be constructed with prefabricated modules.
The modular multilayer detector interface is formed of a plurality of submodules depending on application. Each sub module is formed of four layers with three integrated circuit processing chips per layer for a total of twelve chips per module. Each layer is three mils in thickness and each silicon processing chip has 128 inputs multiplexed to one line. Boards supporting the chip are recessed on the side away from the chip, as will be explained hereinafter, to receive a chip mounted on a board below in the stacked configuration. The ends of the stacked module boards contact the detector chip.
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a new and improved modular multilayer detector interface for hybrid infrared focal planes.
It is another object of the invention to provide a modular multilayer detector interface which is easily maintained and low in maintenance cost.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a new and improved modular multilayer detector interface which is smaller in area than existing devices they replace.
It is still another object of the invention to provide a new and improved modulular multilayer of materials selected to match the thermal expansion qualities of mated infrared detectors.
It is still a further object of the invention to provide a modular multilayer detector interface which may utilize prefabricated processing modules.
It is another object of the invention to provide a new and improved means for making electrical connections to two-dimensional infrared detector arrays.
It is another object of the invention to provide a new and improved modular detector interface that utilizes stacked circuit boards.
These and other advantages, features and objects of the invention will become more apparent from the following description taken in connection with the illustrative embodiment in the accompanying drawing.
FIG. 1 is a top view showing the top view of one layer of the invention.
FIG. 2 is a top view showing the four layers of one submodule.
FIG. 3 is a side view in elevation of a submodule.
Referring now to FIG. 1 there is shown a single top layer of a submodule of the invention. The board 10 is formed of a material thermally compatable with the infrared detector.
Three silicon chip processors 12, 14 and 16 are bonded by beam lead or flip-chip methods to board 10. Lines 18 leaving the integrated circuit lead to the detector and are formed for connecting purposes as shown. Each silicon processing chip has 128 inputs multiplexed into one line. This factor will vary based upon aplplication.
It should be understood that only one integrated circuit is being shown for purposes of explanation. However, processors 12 and 16 are identical in structure and design to chip 14.
FIG. 2 shows the four layers 10, 20, 30 and 40 of a complete submodule. As can be seen each layer contains three chips and hence each submodule contains twelve chips. Shown in phantom are the chips in recesses below the layers shown.
FIG. 3 is a side view of three submodules assembled to form a focal plane support structure. The top sub module is shown with chip processors 16, 26, 36 and 46 attached to boards 10, 20, 30 and 40.
The processors are connected via lines 18 to the detector chip 50. Dashed lines 52 represent apertures cut into layer material 10 through 40 to accommodate integrated circuits on the level below.
Each layer is of conventional material such as for example, epoxy glass or copper and approximately 3 mils in thickness. Processing chips are 0.006 inches in thickness.
In operation the entire structure must be cooled to detector operating temperature, therefore layer material thermal expansion will match detector thermal expansion.
An inherent advantage of the modular approach is in the electronic calibration where each detector has slightly different gain and offset the detector array is more easily adjusted.
Although the invention has been described with reference to a particular embodiment it will be understood to those skilled in the art that the invention is capable of a variety of alternative embodiments within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Product Data
|Wrist Closure:
|High Visibility:
The NW4PRO membrane features a specific 3 layer construction providing optimal protection during Autumn and Winter seasons. The windproof membrane, located in the intermediate layer, is matched with the internal thermal layer, guaranteeing an effective moisture management system to leave your body dry. The selection of stretch fabrics also provides excellent freedom of movement when riding. The result is a garment isolating you from the wind and cold, improving your cycling comfort.
About Winter Gloves
Winter cycling gloves are designed to keep your hands warm, windproof gloves are especially good at this as they stop the winds chill from reaching your fingers. Many models incorporate a waterproof membrane to prevent the insulation layer getting wet, this is important as water carries the cold quickly. They are shaped so they're comfortable in the usual riding position and the fingers are usually pre-curved. If your riding position puts a lot of weight on your hands, choose gloves with padded palms, some even feature gel inserts for additional comfort and shock absorption. Alternatively, wear your summer cycling gloves underneath a slightly larger pair of insulated winter gloves.

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.–Emerald Expositions has purchased George Little Management from Providence Equity Partners for $335 million.
The transaction is expected to close next month, subject to customary regulatory approvals. The acquisition will be funded with approximately $200 million of debt and a $140 million equity investment from Onex Partners III.
GLM operates more than 20 tradeshows, including NY Now, formerly called the New York International Gift Fair, and the International Contemporary Furniture Fair. GLM has approximately 130 employees and operates out of six U.S. offices.
"GLM is a truly outstanding tradeshow company with an exciting portfolio and an experienced and talented workforce," said David Loechner, CEO of Emerald. "This acquisition expands upon our position as a leading tradeshow organizer in the United States. I am excited about the opportunities for customers and employees of both companies that will result from bringing these two high-quality portfolios together."
Charles McCurdy, CEO of GLM, added, "This transaction demonstrates the strength of GLM's shows that have grown successfully thanks to the effectiveness of the GLM team and Providence's support. This is a compelling opportunity going forward for GLM and its stakeholders, and I wish David Loechner and his team the best of luck as they seek to further expand GLM's product offerings and accelerate growth."
Providence Equity Partners purchased GLM in 2011. Emerald was acquired by Onex Partners III earlier this year.

Banking exercise calories for a treat?
Just wondering if anyone has tried this w/o gaining? :dunno: Thought about doing some exercise to have something I really like on an up day. I know I can have what I want on an up day, however, I don't want to use up most of my calories for the day for a calorie expensive treat. Just thought if I burned several hundred calories in a week that maybe on one of my up days I could have the "treat" along with my normal UD calories. Hope I haven't confused everyone. Anyway, just would like to hear thoughts, or suggestions if anyone else does this. Thanks!;)
yeah on an up day its fine...but you need to make sure that the calories you burn while working out are accurate...I like to workout on updays especially because i can eat even more! :) on a working day without exercise i burn 2200 calories (im a waitress) so if i want to eat more i workout for 30 mins on my bike doing HIIT and I get to eat 2500 calories :)
I never did in WLM, so I'm no help. :dunno:
In maintenance, I'm eating more calories and enjoying the heck out of my treats, but they're within my maintenance calories (now anyway--I was going over by a couple of hundred before I decided to try higher calorie maintenance). I know, I know, I'm really no help at all!
We had a thread about this about a month ago, when I get home I will try to find it and bump it.
There was a lot of discussion about eating back exercise calories.
Our biggest success stories on this board lost their weight without exercise.
I run, I am back in marathon training, and weight lift for toning but I never eat back exercise calories.
I explained why I think it is a bad idea in the thread I will bump for you.
the best advice is to to stick with no swee tweaks, which would include eating back exercise calories,
Account for Exercise or Not on the JUDDD Calculator
Mine is post #9, why I explain why *I* think its a bad idea to eat back exercise calories.
Thanks for the response guys;) Guess my cupcake party will have to wait til I reach goal. Or that will have to be half of my UD cals.
Well, if you're only doing it once, you'll probably be ok. But if you did it all the time I think you'd be in trouble. We've all had what we call UUAD (up, up and away days) - if you splurge on a cupcake and don't want to rein in the rest of your day, call it an UUAD, know you may stall (or even see a bounce) and say to yourself - Self, it was worth it! Then flush the guilt, put it behind you, go back to rotations and continue to rock this WOE. That's the ultimate beauty of JUDDD...if you have an oops day, you're not sunk!!
I agree with the half a cupcake idea! I think that knowing how many calories something is really helps half to feel more slpurge-y than it otherwise would.
Tonight I had a favorite meal from a restaurant that I've had many times in the past, only this time I checked and found out that it was over 900 calories (!) so I had half and enjoyed the heck out of it and it was honestly very satisfying . . . especially when that is a whole down day's calories! :) (The hostess noticed that I had lost weight and hadn't been there in a while ... coincidence? ;) )
I think the key word I have to learn is MODERATION. lol A little self control wouldn't hurt either.;)
I have once a month a planned break day from JUDDD AND FROM CARING what i chose to eat.. I have found that being a food adict.. as well as a former "sneak eater" that if i allow my self to binge one day of the month ,, that i can control the monster that lives with in.. Now some folks cant.. its like being a alcoholic.. but for me this works.. I have ate entire brownie cheese cake by my self on that day.. Now mind you.. I dont weight,, i dont care for that day.. or even the day after.. BUT i found that on those day afters.. MAN DO I FEEL SICK... i call this once a month day my "tounge day" for its really all about what my tounge thinks it needs.. So take what ive told you and apply it or ignore it.. ITs just an honest thing i have done over this past year.. :heart::heart::high5::yummy:
That's a great idea Kimberly, and obviously it's working for you! I may have to try that. I'm a little scared at the moment, but it makes perfect sense! Thanks for sharing that!
Thing is.. I wanted her and any one else to know.. Losing weight and doing JUDDD still has its human days.. and some times.. we all need to PLAN a day or meal like this.. For one.. It keeps us moving forward as long as it was planned,, not an every day "oh well" poor me.. Ive had those days too :)).. I eat as clean as i can now.. but some times i just need to eat for one day like the average over weight american i have been raised to be :hyst:
It has taken me many many years to come to the realization that I cannot exercise OFF what I eat! Years ago I took up running specifically to do just that. For ME, losing weight is 95% what I put in my mouth. I was running 40-50 miles +++ a week. I was trying to burn more of what I eat, it does not work for me. I was heavier with all that exercise than I had been when I lost weight. I finally found JUDDD in April of last year and have gotten better control of my weight. I would caution ANYONE that tried to utilize any "negative workout calories" with what they are eating with the hopes of still losing weight.
That being said, if you aren't doing it daily, then you would probably be fine. Having an occassional treat works great with JUDDD, but IMHO, your workouts shouldn't factor into that at all.
Lots of good post:goodpost: Thanks for all the info. Kimberly, I think that's a great idea. One member said they call it an UUAD, (up, up, and away day). lol Like for instance, pancake breakfast, my favorite pizza, and that red velvet cupcake i love so much!:yummy:
Eat the cupcake! You set yourself up for failure if you deny yourself all the time. Moderation is definitely the key. One cupcake or equivalent a week will not matter.

Visa Inc. Survey Finds 73% Of Consumers Still Have Christmas Gifts To Buy
For Procrastinators, 'Panic Shopping' Sets In; Last-Minute Shoppers Will Spend an Average of $304
FOSTER CITY, Calif., Dec. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A new survey released by Visa Inc. shows that 73% of consumers still haven't finished shopping for Christmas gifts. These last-minute shoppers will spend an average of $304 in the final days leading up to Christmas.
Based on 1,007 telephone interviews conducted nationally between December 14 – 16 by GfK Roper OmniTel, Visa's survey finds that 16% of consumers have yet to purchase a single gift and plan to do all of their shopping at the last-minute.
At this point in 2011, with one final Saturday left before Christmas, 77% of consumers had yet to finish their shopping, planning to spend $278, while the number of professional procrastinators who hadn't even begun shopping stood at 13%."With this many Americans still desperate to buy gifts, we are officially in the danger zone for 'panic shopping,'" said Jason Alderman, Visa's Senior Director of Global Financial Education. "When shoppers panic, they throw money at the problem and often overspend to get a gift – any gift – in time for Christmas." Visa's survey found regional, income and gender disparities among those who still had some Christmas shopping to complete.
- 69% of Southerners still have gifts to buy and will spend $329
- 69% of Midwesterners still have gifts to buy and will spend $239
- 78% of Northeasterners still have gifts to buy and will spend $271
- 79% of Westerners still have gifts to buy and will spend $352
- 74% of women nationally still have gifts to buy and will spend $218
- 72% of men nationally still have gifts to buy and will spend $399
- 71% of people with household income under $20,000 still have gifts to buy and will spend $170
- 74% of people with household income between $20,000 and $49,999 still have gifts to buy and will spend $208
- 78% of people with household incomes over $50,000 still have gifts to buy and will spend $401
- Spend no more than 1.5 percent of annual income on holiday expenses. For a family earning $50,000 a year, that means spending $750 or less on all aspects of the holidays.
- Have a 'micro budget' – a specific spending limit – for each person on your gift list.
- Join together with family members to help those who may be less fortunate and make a group contribution to a charity, in lieu of gifts to each other.
- Instead of buying a gift at a store, consider giving the gift of your time by providing an experience like agreeing to cook dinner on a weekend night, clean the house or do laundry.
- Visa offers a free online holiday budgeting calculator at www.practicalmoneyskills.com/holiday and as an iPhone app under "Practical Money Skills calculators" in the iTunes store.

Hornady® Series I 2-Die Rifle Sets
- Zip Spindle design for precise fit
- Carbide construction
Hornady® Series I 2-Die Rifle Sets 12 12
Hornady Dies As with all Hornady products, these dies are well engineered. Well worth what I paid for. April 3, 2013
Best dies ever These are the best dies ever I really like the locking ring better than my RCBS dies Really high quality March 12, 2013
Unacceptable I purchased this product with high hopes, but instead a great disappointment. The bullet seating die leaves a ring around the bullet, like other comments that were said, it's TRUE. Also, the bullet seating die has a differential of 0.011" when using the hornady bullet comparator on my calipers. That is UNACCEPTABLE!!! You may be thinking that I am not eliminating enough variables; well here we go... First I cleaned the die set just like the video that Hornady provided. Second, I have tried this with three different bullets (Berger FB Target BTHP 52gr, Hornady A-Max 52gr. BT, Nosler Spitzer BT 40gr) and I gauged 50 bullets with the comparator and had no more than 0.003" variance. That still leaves atleast 0.008" un-accounted for!?!? I then contacted "Jim" with Hornady and they said it was the "seating stem", and sent out a new one. About a week later I received the part, cleaned, and installed. Absolutely no difference, still a deep ring around all bullets and a differential of 0.011" with only testing 4 cartridges. I video-taped those 4, and will be contacting Hornady. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!! March 12, 2013
Great Dies wouldn't buy any others These die sets are some of the best. Make sure you read the instructions when you get them, by cleaning them with solvent to remove the rust protectant and apply a small amount of case lube or lubricant. The bullet seating die has a built in crimp option which eliminates the need for a 3rd die like some other brands. I will say that yes the bullet seating die does leave a small ring on the bullet when fitting but has zero affect on ballistic performance, and I've personally see no bullet stretching but .257 if my smallest caliber. I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could. Also the LNL feature with the busing allow me to switch between my calibers without wasting brass on setup. March 6, 2013

The discription says that a carbide shell holder is not included. My question is are the dies carbide?

A:Just to clear this up for anyone that reads the answers to this question and gets confused. YES, these are carbine rifle dies. And no, there are no shell holders included.

A:No. Rifle dies are not carbide, generally. Dillon makes some that are, but they are the exception.

Do "Hornady® Series I 2-Die Rifle Sets" work with Hornady Shell Plates and Hornady Lock n Load AP press??

A:The die set WILL WORK with a LNL AP press. As with ALL HORNADY DIES, they come with a factory "CLP" on them that MUST BE REMOVED! If you do not remove the factory lubrication from the dies, you will end up making rounds that can very easily be off.
The dies are coated from the factory with a rust preventative so you receive them rust-free. Take the dies apart, and clean them with a cleaner like One-Shot or comparative.
The coating of oil on the die sets MUST BE REMOVED!
The LNL AP Press is a indexing, progressive press. That said. You'll need the appropriate shell plate # for the caliber you are reloading. You only need one shell-plate per caliber. It looks kind of like a bicycle gear, and it'll state specifically which shell plate # to get on the die-set. You can also look it up on Hornady's website if Bass Pro's site has a lack of information.

A:Yes they do. The die will screw securely down in the lock n load bushings as well as be the right length for the shell plates

A:Yes, they will, but I don't recommend loading rifle rounds in a progressive press.
