I have an iguana who would love to have the option of fresh prickly pear leaves. This is my first trade...how does this work. |

Welcome to GardenWeb! You'll enjoy it here. People are friendly and very generous usually. Trading is done by offering different things, usually plants but not always, that someone else wants. Or, if you find something that you want that someone else has, you offer what you have to trade for it. Usually you pay your own postage unless something different has been worked out beforehand. So, what do you have to trade? Thanks, Terri |

Thank you for the warm welcome! Well, there are a couple types of plants that I have many of...daylillies, irises, and hostas (they're green with white in the middle of the leaves). As my name suggest, I am starting new gardens around my new home. Also, I recently planted a Wisteria tree that has some small shoots. From what I've read, it sounds like they would grow new roots if propigated. Is there anything in specific you are looking for? I have developed a small network of friends for trading live plants and bulbs...if there is something in specific, I could ask around...or it might just jog my memory of something else I have and didn't think of thinning. Thanks for the help. |

PHILADELPHIA -- When the future King Edward VII visited Girard College in 1860, the boarding school for underprivileged students served about 860 white boys in a bucolic setting on the edge of bustling Philadelphia.
That is not the institution that the British monarch's great-great-grandson will see on Thursday.
Now educating a much smaller and racially diverse student population of boys and girls, Girard is a cloistered slice of serenity amid a gritty neighborhood in the heart of the city.
Yet it remains dedicated to its mission of educating low-income students even as the school itself struggles financially. It's also facing a change in leadership as its dynamic young president, Autumn Adkins Graves, steps down at the end of June.
But first, Graves will welcome Prince Edward, who will plant a tree to honor the Diamond Jubilee of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, now in her 60th year on the throne. Edward's great-great-grandfather planted two trees at the school 152 years ago.
The prince also will visit with students from Girard and several other local schools who participate in a youth development program started by his father, the Duke of Edinburgh. It's all part of his tour of the United States, which includes stops in New York, Chicago and Birmingham, Ala.
"It's exciting. We'll have all of our students involved," Graves said. "We've ordered a lot of British flags."
Despite its name, Girard is not a college. The private school, which teaches first through 12th grades, offers free tuition, housing and meals to students primarily from single-parent families. It was founded in 1848 with a bequest from Philadelphia financier Stephen Girard.
Twelve years later, it was honored with a royal visit by the Prince of Wales, who later became Edward VII. A plaque on campus points to a pair of large horse chestnut trees as tokens of his trip. Records also indicate he climbed to the top of the school's grandly columned Founders Hall to get an aerial view of Philadelphia, whereupon a gust of wind blew away his hat.
The school has undergone tremendous change since then, including the admission of minority and female students previously not covered by Girard's will. Officials also made a historic choice in selecting Graves as president in 2009.
Until then, the institution had been run exclusively by white men. But Graves, who happens to be black and female, won over Girard's board of managers with impressive credentials and intellect, an outgoing personality and clear vision for the school.
"The spirit when she came on board was exhilarating," said Tony Schiavo, a 1959 graduate and past president of the alumni association.
Yet Graves said in an interview last week that her ambitions for Girard were almost immediately curtailed by the effects of the recession. The school's budget is largely funded by income from the estate, a contribution that dropped from $23.6 million in 2008 to $19.5 million this year.
The financial troubles led to nearly two dozen layoffs – what Graves called "the greatest agony of my time here" – and an enrollment drop from 620 in 2010 to 465 today.
Some alumni have complained about her leadership, criticism Graves said has been based more on emotion than facts. Students develop an unusually fierce attachment to Girard because it's their home and their school, and that can make it harder to accept change, she said.
She pointed to success in raising Girard's profile through local partnerships with universities and community organizations; Vice President Joe Biden visited for a service day in January. Graves also is proud of new academic programs in robotics, fitness, science, technology, engineering and math.
Her two fundraising galas broke school records, including one this month that grossed $523,000. After expenses, the more than $400,000 being returned to the school will be used to fill a hole in this year's budget, she said.
When Graves arrived at Girard, she had expected most fundraising would help "take us to the next level."
"And what I quickly learned ... is that that fundraising is going to be a part of what keeps the lights on," she said.
Graves described her tenure as exciting, hard, exhausting and rewarding. She's stepping down on June 30 for family reasons; her husband, whom she married in 2010, works in New York. She also wants to pursue a doctorate.
Girard officials say it will be a while before the 164-year-old school is out of the financial woods. But the plan has always been to slowly reduce the institution's operating costs so estate investments can recover and get healthier, said Kevin Feeley, an alumnus and spokesman for the Board of City Trusts, a municipal agency that oversees Stephen Girard's fortune.
The school will grow again, he said.
"The board thinks about these decisions in terms of 100 years from now, because the goal is to continue to operate the school in perpetuity, forever," Feeley said.
Long enough, perhaps, for Prince Edward's great-great-grandson to plant a tree.

We just had a privacy fence installed & would like to build up our flower beds along it . (Mainly to keep the dogs out of it) We will be building them up w/ garden timbers . My husbands main concern is keeping the privacy fence in tact & keeping moisture away from the fence . What is the best (& most cost effective) item to use to keep the moisture away from our new fence & to keep the soil from slipping out of the spaces on the fence slats??!? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Keeping the dogs out of the garden beds is not a particularly good reason to end up with raised beds! We have two dogs and frequently dog-sit for friends and family. There are sometimes 4 dogs here. We have a large garden and the dogs' needs were considered in laying out the garden. The dogs have never damaged the plantings. One of the primary needs of dogs is to patrol the perimeter of their territory - that usually means they like to run the fencelines! The simple solution is to make a path along the fence and put the garden beds to the inside. As long as there is easy access (e.g. intersecting path or paths) to the fence path, the dogs will usually 'take the path of least resistance' to get to the fence path. Dogs also like to survey their territory from higher ground - so a raised bed might actually become their preferred spot to park themselves to monitor activity in their territory! Watch your dogs to see what routes they usually travel around the property and use that information to help plan the garden layout. Traffic patterns shown on a rough sketch of our backyard garden - note the paths along/near the fences: Visiting dog surveying territory from higer ground: |
The best way to keep soil from slipping between the fence slats and keep moisture away ... is to keep soil away from the fence. You can't really place a raised bed directly against the fence without creating a multitude of problems. The proper way to raise grade where fence is involved is to raise the grade first, which might require a retaining wall, depending on your needs. and then place a fence on top of the raised grade. |

Word 2000 is a word processing application included with the Microsoft Office 2000 software. The WordPerfect Converter is a tool used by Word 2000 to import documents from WordPerfect files and convert them for editing in Word 2000 format.
Exploitation of a stack corruption vulnerability in Microsoft Corp.'s Word 2000 WordPerfect 6.x Converter could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current user.
Microsoft Word is able to open documents created in other applications by transparently applying a filter module which converts them to a format Word can use. The WordPerfect 6.x converter from Office 2000 fails to perform sufficient sanity checking on input files. A maliciously constructed WordPerfect document can cause potentially exploitable stack corruption.
Successful remote exploitation of this vulnerability would allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged in user. One possible attack vector is to put a maliciously constructed document on a website and attempt to convince a user to download it. By default, Word 2000 will open Word Documents in the browser without prompting.
The vulnerability is triggered by conversion code not properly validating a counter against the allocated length of a structure before processing it. Depending on the contents of the data file, control structures on the stack may be modified as a result, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code.
One mitigating factor in the severity of this vulnerability is that, by default, the converter is not installed until the first time you go to use it. Often though, a complete install is done or the converter is explicitly requested in a custom install.
WordPerfect 6.x documents will be opened using the affected WordPerfect 6.x Converter if they have an extension which is handled by Word. For example, if a WordPerfect document is renamed from EVIL.WPD to EVIL.DOC, it may not be obvious that the file is a WordPerfect document.
iDefense Labs have confirmed that the WordPerfect 6.x converter (WPFT632.CNV, with file version 19126.96.36.199) in Microsoft Word 2000 Service Pack 3 is vulnerable. However, the version of this converter installed with Word 2003 is not affected by this vulnerability.
The following workaround mitigates exposure to the vulnerability:
� Uninstall the WordPerfect 6.x Converter. (Doing this will cause an inability to open WordPerfect 6.x documents within the affected Microsoft applications)

It takes a lot to surprise True Blood fans, but Sarah Newlin (Anna Camp) kissing the severed head of her late lover, Gov. Truman Burrell (Arliss Howard), in last week's episode did it. "I had no idea, actually, that I was gonna kiss the head, it just sort of happened," Camp said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly managing editor Jess Cagle that aired this week on EW's Sirius XM channel. "If I get an impulse that's, like, creepy, I'm like, why not? They can always tell me not to do it. But better to be pulled back than to be pushed forward, you know."
But here's something even more shocking: Sarah Newlin's most insane moment is still to come. The Aug. 4 episode will feature a sequence shot over three days that the Pitch Perfect actress refers to as "the craziest scene I've ever shot." She ended up going to the emergency room — in full Sarah Newlin hair and makeup — for a minor injury she received doing a stunt. Listen to the interview below for more.

Had an IG vinyl steel walled pool installed in MA last fall and decided to wait until spring to lay our decking. We are considering going the paver route with a cantilever edge. My better half is not too fond of the the bullnosed edged pavers she's seen used for coping. She feels it presents too much of a border around the pool which is a look she would like to avoid. She has picked out a slab paver(Techo-Bloc Blu 60) for our decking, and I am wondering if its possible to just use the pavers as coping by laying them right up to the edge. Any comments/suggestions/opinions would be much appreciated. Thanks.
here a couple pics the top of our pool walls
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi MX702, we're in MA and doing the fall/spring build too. We're going with tecnobloc blu pavers and matching bullnose coping. I've seen some pools with similar set up and it looks great. search "southern NH pool build" on here and you'll see CNR's pool which is beautiful and uses the blu pavers/coping. Good luck! |

VenKIT Walker, the latest contributor to TCP, sent in a comic specifically for this day. It's called "On The Sands Of Time" – an Indrajal Comic that briefly covers the sacrifices of freedom fighters like Vasudev Balwant Phadke, Khudiram Bose, Prafullakumar Chaki, The Chaphekar Brothers, Veer Savarkar, Madanlal Dhingra and Anantrao Kanhere.
About the Republic Day:
On January 26, 1950, we adopted the Constitution as framed by the Constituent Assembly of India. The draft constitution was published in February 1948 and was discussed by the Constituent Assembly, clause by clause, over the next 19 months. On November 26, 1949, the constitution was declared as passed with provisions of citizenship, elections, provisional Parliament, temporary and transitional provisions coming into immediate effect and the rest of the Constitution came into force on January 26, 1950. (Source: www.iloveindia.com)
The preamble states:
WE, THE PEOPLE OF INDIA, having solemnly resolved to constitute India into a SOVEREIGN SOCIALIST SECULAR DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC and to secure to all its citizens:
Justice, social, economic and political;
Liberty of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship;
Equality of status and of opportunity;
and to promote among them all
Fraternity assuring the dignity of the individual and the unity and integrity of the Nation;
In our Constituent Assembly this twenty-sixth day of November, 1949, do HEREBY
It's not perfect, and over the years it has been abused by those in power and those who want power. Never as much as in the last few years. But we will tackle these issues as time goes by.
Have a great day.

NETS Modernizes Veterans Affairs Enterprise CommunicationsBy Anuradha Shukla, TMCnet Contributor Nelson Enterprise Technology Services (NETS) will provide public key infrastructure (PKI) migration support to modernize and streamline the entirety of Veterans Affairs Enterprise Communications (News - Alert). A contract has been signed to this end and work will begin from Oct. 15, 2012. For this project, NETS will plan, implement and support the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs' (VA) anticipated migration of its legacy ActivID card management system (CMS) to another PKI hosted management environment. VA operates a large IT infrastructure, providing essential services and support to over 500,000 American service veterans and their families. NETS specializes in IT infrastructure, systems engineering and network solutions. CMS provider ActivIdentity (News - Alert) assisted NETS to bring additional niche capabilities to the VA and enable a smooth transition to Entrust's SPP PKI solution. NETS will also configure, test, cut-over and triage the migration for this project. All this assistance will help minimize negative impact to the software, hardware and systems that support the VA's 230 locations nationwide. This is not the first time NETS has helped Veterans Affairs, as it is already designing, developing and deploying an optical network to support the VA's anticipated growth in communications requirements across three of its core business units. In addition, NETS is also helping VA with migrating from IPv4 to IPv6 by 2014. NETS was in the news earlier this month for launching its national Drive Safely Work Week (DSWW) campaign, which promotes safe driving education and awareness materials for all employees and their families. "Having safe-driving policies in place is a crucial component of an organization's safety culture," said Sandra Lee, NETS chair and director of Worldwide Fleet Safety for Johnson & Johnson.

CoQ10 May Hold Promise for People with ALSIn one case study, hand strength and mood improved in the first four weeks A review of preliminary research and a case report published in The Open Nutraceuticals Journal suggest there may be a role for coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in slowing the course of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease), a deadly disease in which the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord that control muscle movement become damaged and lost. People with ALS experience a gradual loss of muscle coordination and strength in the arms and legs, as well as those that control breathing and swallowing. At this time there is no known cure. One man's inspiring storyThe authors of the report described a 70 year-old man who had experienced decreasing strength in his hands and legs, muscle tremors, and increasing difficulty walking, and was diagnosed with ALS. Five years later, he was given 200 mg of CoQ10 twice daily, taken with fatty meals to improve absorption. The form of CoQ10 used, solubilized ubiquinol, is believed to be better absorbed than other forms. Based on this man's symptom record, his hand strength and mood improved in the first four weeks, and he increased his CoQ10 to 500 mg twice daily. At some point that is not reported, he resumed the lower amount of CoQ10. Most people with ALS do not survive more that five years after being diagnosed; however, the man whose case is reported had survived 12 years at the time of the publication. CoQ10's role in protecting nervesThe researchers outlined some previous research that points toward CoQ10 as a possible treatment for ALS:
"This body of research suggests that CoQ10, by its antioxidant and energy producing effects, might benefit people with neurodegenerative diseases like ALS," said study co-author R. B. Singh from the Halberg Hospital and Research Institute in Moradabad, India. "The intriguing case we present further supports the notion that research to determine whether solubilized ubiquinol can slow the progression of ALS is warranted."

The mistletoe is pinned to doorframe, or the belt buckle in Lewis' case, and the Christmas cheer is jolly well in. So what better time is there to celebrate the best the festive season has to offer us gaming Santas? From the best titles of last year, to this year's hottest games and next year's sickly sweet candy-coated treats, here's the third and final part of PSW's take on A Christmas Carol...
Ghosts Of Christmas Future
Next Christmas is still a little hazy, word is God Of War III won't make it. However, these hits in waiting certainly will, so start saving those pennies...
Uncharted 2
Publisher: Sony
Developer: Naughty Dog
Sequel to one of 2007's most impressive PS3 exclusive games, Uncharted 2 will see the return of Nathan Drake and friends on another treasure hunt into ghoul infested tombs.
Naughty Dog vice president, Christophe Balestra, has confirmed work is well in hand on the sequel to Uncharted Drake's Fortune. The script for the game is finalized by all accounts and takes the series into an unusual new direction. It wouldn't take much to add co-op play into the game, with Sully expected to return as Nathan's partner in crime. That script, which Balestra also made reference to in a recent French interview seems to be causing a lot of fuss inside Sony, it's clearly a direction for the series that Naughty Dog is excited about.
Does this mean Uncharted 2 is taking its inspiration from the tension-filled final third of Uncharted, when the game went all Resi 4 on us? Not a bad thing. Regardless of direction, Uncharted 2 will make it for Christmas 2009.
Call Of Duty 6
Publisher: Activision
Developer: Infinity Ward
Series creator Infinity Ward returns to Call Of Duty following its reinvention with Modern Warfare in 2007. So, where next for the best war shooter?
Word is, Infinity Ward is keen to explore the modern tech introduced in Modern Warfare, but taking the formula into a near-future setting. By all accounts, this will put Call Of Duty in direct conflict with Ubisoft's Tom Clancy games, namely Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter and Rainbow Six (both set for a return in 2009).
You can expect a big fight for sales with these three big hitters going head-to-head. Another rumour sent spinning by the developer is that they're working on a brand-new sci-fi shooter, though this is seen as a tall tale, with Activision keen to keep the series rooted in real world-influenced weapons and conflicts.
Against the odds, Treyarch raised the bar even higher this year with Call Of Duty World At War and Infinity Ward has its work cut out to take the series another step further.
Gran Turismo 5
Publisher: Sony
Developer: Polyphony Digital
The game is the latest in the long running Gran Turismo series that bills itself as a 'real driving simulator' rather than a racing game. As such, real cars, real physics and real tracks drive the action.
In development for four years, (five by its estimated release next December), Gran Turismo 5 has a lot of hype to live up to. Between GT4 and GT5 developer Polyphony Digital has made and dumped a PSP Gran Turismo game, given us GT5 Prologue and made a concept car with French car manufacturer Citroën. Gamers meanwhile, are waiting.
The game has had 150 people working on it since the project began in 2004 and it's estimated to have cost a staggering 50 times more than GT4 to make - and it's still not finished. There should be a second GT5 Prologue or expansion to Prologue between now and Christmas 2009, too. But the worrying thing, even at this stage, is a confession from Designer Kazunori Yamauchi that the full game may not see a release until 2010.

Actor and model Taylor Kinney, who played Lady Gaga's love interest in the "Yoü And I" video, is rumored to be canoodling with her in real life. Her reps have been saying she's too busy for anything serious, but she thinks he's "super cute." Obviously. This past week, Taylor was spotted accompanying Gaga to her London hotel room, which means they must be madly in love forever and ever! Or not. I don't really care as long as she's done with Lüc Carl and his ugly umlaut face. After the jump, five things you should know about Lady Gaga's new (maybe) boyfriend, Taylor Kinney.

No, you didn't win a foreign lottery jackpot
"Congratulations, you have just won a ton of money," and they can send it to you as soon as you send them some money. Don't do it.
"You shouldn't send the money because you didn't win," says Dave Schroader with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.
"They are con artists. Their only interest is in trying to relieve you of some of your money and line their pockets."
Remember these two simple rules and you'll never get burned:
- You can't win a contest you didn't enter.
- If the contest is legit, you won't be asked to pay anything to claim your prize.
If there are any taxes involved, that's between you and the IRS.
And, Schroader says, "It is illegal to play a foreign lottery."
If you did take part, you could be charged with a federal crime.

Mar 20, 2014 12:20 PM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. (AP) - The National Park Service says a proposed 6.5-square-mile solar development about a half-mile from the Mojave National Preserve would harm wildlife and should be built elsewhere.
The Riverside Press-Enterprise reported Wednesday that Preserve Superintendent Stephanie Dubois has submitted an eight-page letter to the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, which oversees the public land where the Soda Mountain solar project is planned.
The letter says the BLM failed to adequately examine the project's potential to harm groundwater and threatened and endangered species including the desert tortoise.
BLM spokeswoman Martha Maciel said officials would consider Dubois' comments as part of its evaluation process.
A subsidiary of Bechtel wants to put solar panels on both sides of Interstate 15 just outside the northwest corner of the preserve in the San Bernardino Mountains.

The Department of Parking and Transportation or the Department of Police may immobilize or remove and put into storage any vehicle in violation of University Parking Regulations.
Costs of such removal and storage are charged against the individual in whose name the car is registered. Towed vehicles may be retrieved by the owners at the appropriate towing company office (see list of authorized companies below).
Any student, staff or faculty member whose driving or parking privileges are compromised as a result of a vehicle parked in violation of University Parking Regulations may request that the Department of Parking and Transportation take action against the violating vehicle. After hours the U.Va Police Department will respond to such requests. Ticketing and towing of violating vehicles may result.
Any violation of the University Parking Regulations or the accumulation of $250 or more in outstanding citation fines can result in a vehicle being towed. Please review the following information to locate your vehicle:
Vehicles that have two or more unpaid citations are subject to immobilization by means of a parking boot. The driver/owner of the vehicle will be required to pay all outstanding citations in addition to the boot removal fee. In some cases, the driver/owner may be able to set up a payment plan to satisfy the outstanding citation balance.
Release: The driver/owner of the vehicle may contact the Parking and Transportation Office Monday-Friday during the hours of 7:30am-5:00pm. If the vehicle is immobilized Monday-Thursday after 5:00pm, the driver/owner will need to contact the Parking and Transportation Office the next business day to make arrangements for payments and release of the vehicle. The driver/owner may contact the on-call supervisor after hours only in the event of a true emergency for vehicle release (434-981-4611). Online payments made after hours will not result in immediate vehicle release. The driver/owner must contact the Parking and Transportation Office the next business day for release (434-924-7231).
Warning: Attempting to drive while a parking boot is attached to vehicle will cause serious damage to the vehicle. The University of Virginia assumes no liability for loss or damage to a vehicle or contents. Any tampering, damage, or theft of the immobilization device (boot) shall make the driver/owner liable for the destruction or theft of University property. The result of which will be a fine of $500 and judicial proceedings.
Please note that vehicles will not be booted in the following situations, but instead will be towed:

I have had two recent pin holes in a 2 inch water source galvanized pipe that is 30 years old. One was in the attic a month ago and the latest outside. I have repaired both with rubber piece and hose clamp. Are these pin holes unusual, what might be going on. |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by sierraeast (My Page) on Mon, May 12, 08 at 18:18
Galvanized pipe corrodes from the inside out, so what might appear a decent line could be failing after 30 years. Dependent on location, the life span for galvanized is + or - 40 years. If your system is mostly galvy lines and you have witnessed a pressure drop in recent years, that is generally telling you your lines are corroding inside and filling lessening the inside diameter of the pipe, interrupting flow. Retrofitting w/ pex lines is common here where older homes used galvy water lines. |
Unfortunately, since this has happened in two quite different locations, it's probably an early warning that the piping is failing and needs to be replaced throughout the house as well as the supply line from the meter to the house. Additional failures could cause more serious trouble, like slow leaking in pipes in walls that could cause rotting before you detect a leak; this may already be occurring. Although this is a little early for galvanized pipe to fail, you may live in an area where the characteristics of the water and its pH are causing a more aggressive deterioration than normal. Its going to cost a bit to have the piping replaced, but you can't keep continuing to do temporary repairs and hope for the best. At least get a plumber out to replace the failed sections as this will give you an opportunity to examine the pipe that's removed and come to some conclusions. I replaced my galvanized system at about the 40 year point, and it was so corroded with deposits inside that, when I tried to look down a 10' length of 3/4" supply line I'd removed, I couldn't see any light at the other end. |

The focus here should be about supporting Jed and Dec. They're great young prospects that really do need quality game time - so lets get them loaned out. Bringing in Lee Camp makes perfect sense as cover or competition for Bunn. We've all read that Ruddy's injury was very nasty and if we get to see him back in the side before the end of the season then that's a bonus. In the meantime we need to support our good prospects and get them loaned out to places where they can thrive and develop. No one will be looking to sign Ruddy with the injury he has at the moment, certainly not in this window. Now for goodness sake can we start looking at strengthening the places that really do need attention. Also, Chris can you stop talking about how good our competitors are and instil some confidence in our team that they can not only hope to possibly get a draw in games but can beat teams - home and away. We're a team that used to concern others with our attacking flair, now all we seem to be is a team consumed with concern with what others might do to us.

BP has joined Cambridge industrial innovator TWI as a founding sponsor of the UK's pioneering research centre for postgraduate engineering education.
The National Structural Integrity Research Centre (NSIRCTM) is currently under construction in Cambridge.
In this new phase of collaboration with TWI, BP will benefit foremost from its involvement and interaction with the newly-established NSIRC, where it will sponsor PhD students undertaking fundamental research to help underpin its commercial operations.
The company will have direct access to purpose-built, world-class facilities and equipment, together with high-calibre students and staff.
The technical work programme will be broad but will include elements such as understanding and testing the performance limits of materials in oilfield environments, where components can be subjected to high temperature, high pressure, aggressive environment and/or cyclic loading. BP staff will attend NSIRC regularly to provide a supervisory role to students.
John Baxter, group engineering director at BP, said: 'Improving understanding and driving innovation in the fields of science and engineering which underpin structural integrity, is vital for the oil and gas and many other industries. Through working with TWI-SIRF, and with the world-class specialist facilities and expertise of NSIRC, we expect to be able to address many of the fundamental issues that face our industry every day across the world."
TWI chief executive, Christoph Wiesner, added: "This is an important step for SIRF, and in welcoming BP to the Foundation we are strengthening vital links with those industries who will benefit most from needs-driven research into structural integrity. We are very pleased to be working alongside BP in this growing venture."
Importantly, the new partnership between TWI and BP in SIRF will enable the oil and gas company to contribute to defining the overall technical focus of SIRF, which includes NSIRC, as a member of the SIRF Board. It also opens up opportunities for research and innovation to support BP-identified topics aligned with the company's Facilities Technology Flagship technology development programme.
BP will benefit from closer access to TWI expertise and knowhow, linking with applied research. The partnership builds on existing relationships with the University of Manchester, both a major collaborator with BP through the ICAM initiative and an academic partner with TWI in the delivery of NSIRC.
NSIRC will provide industry-driven academic research and relevant training to the next generation of structural integrity engineers and researchers. Through SIRF, the education centre has already been awarded public funding from the UK's Regional Growth Fund and from the Higher Educational Funding Council for England, with academic partner Brunel University, to set up and equip the new facilities. BP will provide industrial funding to complement this public funding.

- I am currently in the beginning stages of creating a LEGO city, with the modular buildings as the centerpiece. I used to play with LEGO as a kid, but have recently fallen back in love. It was the Medieval Market Village which first caught my eye and drew me back in. I'd never seen anything so beautiful before (at least not in the world of Lego!)
I prefer creating scenes by combining sets of a similar theme, rather than buying random sets on their own. Current themes I am into:
LEGO City (mostly for vehicles, minifigures, and accesories to populate my modular-based city)
LEGO modular buildings (this is killing my bank account)
LEGO Winter Village (I'm a sucker for creating a flowing scene)
LEGO Lord of the Rings/Hobbit
LEGO Trains! (to go around and through my city, of course)

Search for HotelsTop Destinations:
Here are a few of the hotel chains and travel sites we search for the best hotel deals...
Where to Stay in Palm SpringsThe city of Palm Springs, while geographically small, has more hotels and resorts than any other city in the Coachella Valley resort area. But due to its compact size and the ease of getting around by bike and on foot, the location of your hotel isn't as important as factors like amenities, service, quality and price. Most hotels in Palm Springs are located on or within a few blocks of Palm Canyon Drive, the main drag which enters town from the northwest corner, heads south through the center of Palm Springs and finally turns southeast, leading to the other destinations in the valley. Cheap hotel deals in Palm Springs can be tricky to find throughout the peak tourist season from October to April, but if you're willing to brave the heat, you can often find major discounts in the summer. Prices tend to be more competitive in the nearby valley towns of Desert Hot Springs, Cathedral City, Palm Desert, La Quinta and Coachella. If you save by staying in one of these adjacent locales, you're still just a few minutes away from the heart of Palm Springs. Palm Springs Hotel TipsYou have a wide variety of accommodations to choose from when staying in Palm Springs, though the area is most famous for its upscale boutique hotels. Many of the most interesting boutique properties in the city date back to the 50s and 60s, but these older hotels are harder to come by as you make your way to the eastern end of the valley resort area. Palm Springs is also known for its lavish resorts, many of which aim to relax and rejuvenate their guests with amenities like first-class spas, yoga retreats and gourmet room service menus. There are plenty of these resorts in Palm Springs proper, but they account for an even greater share of the accommodations in the areas to the east. Mid-range and discount hotel chains do have a presence in the area, and provide a great way to enjoy the generally expensive winter peak season on a modest travel budget. These hotels are scattered throughout the valley region. Palm Springs Hotel RecommendationsIf you're planning on splurging on your trip, your money will be well spent at Parker Palm Springs, a contender for the city's most opulent luxury resort. Formerly the Gene Autry Melody Ranch, this property has been modernized and expanded through numerous renovations to feature the most comfortable and chic rooms, a world-class spa and Mister Parker's, an exclusive restaurant that serves some of Palm Springs' most creative cuisine. For a stay that's more affordable but equally unforgettable, look into the Orbit In, one of the city's best examples of fully restored 1950s architecture. The Orbit In embraces the kitschy fashion of Palm Springs' initial heyday but combines it with modern conveniences and comforts. Its suites are all themed and individually appointed, and breakfast is served daily beside one of the swankiest pools in the area, followed by cocktails all afternoon and evening. The Villa Royale, a 30-unit luxury hotel that feels more like a bed and breakfast, is a smart choice if you want to stay in Palm Springs but away from the action of the downtown area. Its top features include two landscaped swimming pools, in-room massage and spa treatments, and one of Palm Springs' favorite dining destinations, Europa. If you'd like to spend time in some of the other accommodations in the Coachella Valley, the La Quinta Resort & Club in La Quinta, California is worth looking into. Many of the rooms at this historic property are in free-standing structures, some of which have private or semi-private pools, helping to make the large resort feel smaller and more personal. It's also a top golf destination in the area, with five golf courses from legendary designers including Pete Dye, Jack Nicklaus and Greg Norman. Palm Springs TransportationIf you're the walking type, you can easily get around Palm Spring's small, safe and pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods on foot. If you're inclined to take advantage of the city's extensive network of bike paths, you can rent bicycles and safety equipment from several local businesses. Of course, Palm Springs is just one part of the Coachella Valley, and you'll need a car to efficiently see the noteworthy sights in neighboring cities to the southeast. After booking your flight to Palm Springs, consider making a reservation with one of the many car rental agencies at Palm Springs International Airport. The city is also served by taxi and private car companies. In general, private car service should be booked at least 24 hours in advance, and much farther ahead if you plan to be in town during the Palm Springs International Film Festival or another major event. Cab companies can be called at any time, but be sure to plan ahead and take their phone numbers with you. It's rarely easy to hail a taxi on the street. |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Audrey!
Facts about Audrey
- Breed: Calico
- Color: Calico Or Dilute Calico
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Medium
Audrey's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Hi! My name is Audrey! I am 2 year old, female, calico. I was rescued from euthanasia on Feb 1st. I am loving girl that is going to make someone very happy. I have a big personality in a petite little body. I am only 7lbs and I am not getting any bigger. Even though I am all grown up, I still love to play and act like a kitten. Once we get to know each other, you will see just how silly I can be. I can be a talker when you talk back too! I would love a second chance at being a part of a family. Come meet me at The Pet Rescue Center today!
Pets are visited by appointment (times are flexible). Please email Casey Oliver at email@example.com to arrange a meeting time. This process allows potential adopters to spend adequate time with their prospective pet and prevents long wait times.
All interested parties must fill out an Adoption Application, which will be reviewed to find the best possible match. You can find our application online at: http://www.thepetrescuecenter.org/adoptapet.html. Completed applications can be faxed to (949) 743-5878 or emailed to: email@example.com
Our adoption fee is $300 for dogs and $150 for cats, and includes spay/neuter, microchip, flea treatment, deworming, regular veterinary check-ups, and current vaccinations. This fee helps to defray the costs of medical care, supplies and boarding while the animals are in our care.
The Pet Rescue Center is a 501c3 non-profit organization that seeks to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome pets from high kill shelters and is temporarily housed inside the Alicia Pet Care Center at 25800 Jeronimo Rd. Suite 100, Mission Viejo, CA 92691.
Other Pets at The Pet Rescue Center
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Audrey, a Mission Viejo Calico cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Calico for sale in Mission Viejo, or seeking a Calico cat from a breeder in Mission Viejo.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Mission Viejo already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Mission Viejo breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Calico breeders who help with Calico rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Mission Viejo paves the way for another one to be saved.

Curve Are Two-Hit; Santos And Hernandez Have 3 Hits Each
Some action with the Pirates' lower minor league affiliates on Wednesday…� still can't get anything done in Bradenton this evening, though the GCL Pirates did get their game in this afternoon.
Erie SeaWolves� 3,� Altoona Curve� 1 …�� (box)
The Curve were held to just 2 hits as they lost to the SeaWolves at home.� The Curve got two walks, one of which resulted in their only run, and they also had a runner reach on a fielding error.� 1B Matt Hague had the first Curve hit, a two-out single in the 4th inning.� 2B Jordy Mercer walked in the 2nd inning, and RF Miles Durham reached on a fielding error to begin the 8th inning.� None of them got as far as second base.� Finally, in the bottom of the 9th, SS Chase d'Arnaud led off with the second walk, and then he stole second base (his 32nd steal of the season).� DH Andrew Lambo lined a double into left field, scoring d'Arnaud with the Curve's lone run.
Justin Wilson pitched 4 innings in his start, and gave up all three of the SeaWolves' runs, on 6 hits and 3 walks, with 6 strikeouts.� He surrendered a run in the 2nd inning on three singles.� Another single and a double brought in one run in the 4th.� Wilson walked the next batter, then got a grounder to short for what looked like it would be an inning-ending double play.� The out was made at second, but Mercer's throw to first was not on target, and the batter was safe, which allowed the runner who had doubled to score from second base.
Mike Colla relieved Wilson to begin the 5th inning.� He gave up a walk to former teammate Brandon Jones to lead off the 5th, then erased him in a double play.� Colla allowed only one base runner in the rest of his four innings, a double to lead off the 7th inning.� Ramon Aguero pitched a perfect top of the 9th, with one strikeout.
Solid Starts From Locke, Adcock, Miller, and Cain
Minor League action with the Pirates' affiliates on Thursday… lots of good pitching
Altoona Curve� 5,� Trenton Thunder� 3 (box)
The Curve came from behind to take this game from Trenton, despite being out-hit 8-7.� Starter Jeff Locke had trouble in the 1st inning, when 3 runs scored on a double, three singles, a wild pitch, and a throwing error by C Hector Gimenez on a stolen base play.� After that inning, Locke settled in, scattering four hits over the next 5 innings, while striking out 6 batters.
The Curve batters had only 2 hits over the first 3 innings, but they got going in the 4th to put one run on the board.� LF Andrew Lambo walked, and 1B Matt Hague singled.� A ground out to second by Gimenez moved both runners into scoring position, and 2B Jim Negrych picked up an RBI when his groundout scored Lambo.� DH Yung Chi Chen got the 5th inning off to a good start with a triple into left field.� He scored on CF Anthony Norman's sacrifice fly.� A fielding error in left field put Norman on first base, but he was caught stealing moments later.� SS Chase d'Arnaud kept the rally going with a walk, and he was successful in stealing second.� 3B Josh Harrison was hit by a pitch, and a wild pitch moved d'Arnaud to third and Harrison to second.� Lambo's grounder to second brought in d'Arnaud from third, and the score was tied at 3-3.
Jared Hughes took over for Locke for the final three innings.� He held the Thunder to just a walk in the 7th, retiring the other 9 batters he faced, with the help of some outstanding outfield work, particularly by Norman, and an infield gem by Negrych.� The Curve threatened in the 6th, when RF Miles Durham singled and Chen walked with 2 outs, but both were left on base.� Harrison began the 7th inning with a walk, and with two outs, he stole second base.� That put him into scoring position, so that when Hague took a 3-0 pitch into left field for a double, Harrison was able to score the go-ahead run.� Gimenez was intentionally walked to get to Negrych, who obligingly grounded to second base for what should have been the final out of the inning.� But the Trenton second baseman made a fielding error — Negrych was safe at first, and Hague scored an insurance run.
Light Hitting Night For Affiliates, Morris Pitches 5 Shutout Innings
Looking in on the Pirates' minor league affiliates on Tuesday… the State College Spikes have a scheduled day off.
Hagerstown Suns� 5,� West Virginia Power� 4 (box)
A single, a double, and a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the 10th gave the Suns the extra-inning win over the Power this afternoon.� The Power were held to 6 hits and scored all 4 of their runs in one inning, the 5th.� 3B Jesus Brito led off the inning with a single, and CF Evan Chambers was hit by a pitch.� Both scored on DH Jose Hernandez's line drive double into center field.� 1B Aaron Baker brought in Hernandez with his 16th home run of the season, and the Power had their 4 runs.
Baker was the only Power batter who had more than one run in the game.� Besides the home run, he also singled in the 4th, but was forced out at second base.� SS Benji Gonzalez singled to lead off the 3rd inning, but was left on base. LF Rogelios Noris doubled to lead off the 6th.� Both RF David Rubinstein and� Noris were hit by pitches (back-to-back) in the 2nd inning.� Both C Ramon Cabrera and Chambers reached base two throwing errors in the 9th.� All four of them were left on base.
Jason Erickson pitched into the 7th inning for the Power, but he did not figure into the decision.� He gave up a run in the 3rd inning on a double, a sacrifice bunt, and an RBI single.� LF Noris prevented another run from scoring on a single, when he made a perfect throw in from left field to the plate, with Cabrera making the tag at the plate. Erickson gave up lone singles in the 4th and 5th, then gave up a solo home run in the 6th inning.
The Suns tied the score in the 7th inning.� With two outs, Erickson gave up a bunt single, a stolen base, and a walk.� Justin Ennis relieved Erickson, but the first batter he faced doubled into left field, scoring both base runners, to tie the game at 4-4.� Ennis gave up a single and a walk in the 8th, but did not let either runner score.� Zach Foster took over for the 9th, and retired the side in order then, but he suffered the loss when he gave up the run in the 10th.� The Power had two base runners on in the 8th (two errors) but they did not score either.
Durham's Grand Slam Sparks Curve; Marte Back With A Homer
Monday's action in the Pirates' lower minor leagues… the Bradenton Marauders have a scheduled day off today.
Altoona Curve� 11,� Erie SeaWolves� 2 (box)
RF Miles Durham's grand slam ignited a 9-run 8th inning to lift the Curve over the SeaWolves in the series opener.� Both teams put runners on base in the first four innings, but none of those runners scored.� The Curve got the scoring started in the 5th, when LF Brandon Jones led off with a single and DH Yung Chi Chen brought him across the plate with a double into center field.� CF Anthony Norman singled to score Chen from second base, and the Curve were ahead, 2-0.� The SeaWolves tied the game in the bottom of the 9th.� Curve starter Jeff Locke had allowed two doubles over the first 5 innings and had struck out 9 batters.� With two outs in the 6th, Locke gave up three singles and hit a batter, which gave Erie two runs.
Then came the 8th.� Norman led off with a double, and he scored the go-ahead run on singles by SS Chase d'Arnaud and 1B Matt Hague. A new pitcher, Luis Marte, came in from the bullpen for Erie.� 2B Jordy Mercer was the first batter Marte faced, and Mercer bunted the runners up one base.� C Kris Watts was intentionally walked, then Durham rocketed a grand slam over the left field wall, to give the Curve a 7-2 lead.� Jones followed the home run with a single, and Chen followed that with a 2-run homer, bumping the Curve to 9-2.� The next batter, 3B Josh Harrison, was hit by a pitch, which caused the ejection of Luis Marte and his manager.� The next pitcher got a ground out, then walked d'Arnaud.� A wild pitch put both Harrison and d'Arnaud into scoring position.� Hague grounded to the mound, but a throwing error by the pitcher brought in both Harrison and d'Arnaud, to make it 11-2.� A ground out ended the inning.
Ramon Aguero pitched two scoreless innings of relief for the Curve, with a walk and a double.� Mike Colla pitched the 9th, and gave up only a single.
Irwin: 7 No-Hit Innings; Marauders Drop Two
A few roster notes:� RHP Teddy Fallon and LHP Justin Ennis were both promoted from State College to West Virginia.� Fallon was the Pirates' 43rd pick in the 2009 draft, and Ennis was the 33rd round pick in this year's draft.� RHP Tom Boleska has been promoted from Bradenton to Altoona.
Altoona's Bryan Morris has skipped a start, which the Pirates are calling just a "breather".� He has struggled in his last few starts, but has also stacked up the innings so far this season (103) and the Pirates want him to stay below 140 innings this season.
West Virginia Power� 9,� Hagerstown Suns� 1 (box)
Phillip Irwin pitched 7 no-hit innings for the Power tonight, before he had to be relieved due to his increasing pitch count.� Irwin struck out 8 batters in his 7 innings, and he allowed 2 walks.� He got off to a strong start when he struck out the side in the 1st inning, then struck out 2 more in the 2nd.� The first walk came in the 3rd inning, but that runner was immediately erased when the next batter lined right to 1B Aaron Baker, who stepped on first base for a double play.� The next 7 batters went down in order, until the 6th, when that same batter, C Sandy Leon, walked again.� This time Leon was forced out at second on a grounder, and another ground out ended the inning.� Irwin wrapped up his amazing evening with two more strikeouts in the 7th inning.
Ryan Kelly relieved Irwin and pitched the final two innings.� He allowed one hit, but it was a solo home run.� He also walked a batter in the 9th, and struck out 2 batters.
The rest of the team was busy giving Irwin and Kelly plenty of run support.� They piled up 16 hits, with everyone in the lineup reaching base at least one time, and all but SS Benji Gonzalez picking up at least one hit (Gonzalez had a walk).� 3B Elevys Gonzalez, Aaron Baker, and LF Rogelios Noris each had 3 hits.� Baker led off the 2nd inning with a solo home run.� CF David Rubinstein followed the homer with a double, and Noris added a single to put runners on the corners.� C Jairo Marquez lined a single into center field, scoring Rubinstein to give the Power an early 2-0 lead.
They boosted that lead in the 3rd inning, as they sent 11 batters to the plate and scored 7 runs.� Six of the first seven batters reached base safely:� 2B Jarek Cunningham and RF Jose Hernandez began with back-to-back singles, and Baker's double scored Cunningham (#1 run).� Rubinstein's sacrifice fly brought in Hernandez (#2).� Noris and DH Kyle Morgan goth singled, and Baker scored (#3).� Marquez doubled in Noris and Morgan (#4, 5), and sent the Hagerstown pitcher to the showers.� Benji Gonzalez flied out, but Elevys Gonzalez singled, plating Marquez (#6).� A fielding error on that play moved Elevys G to second base, and a wild pitch put him on third.� Cunningham's second single in the inning brought in Elevys G (#7), before a line out ended the inning.
The Power put at least one baserunner on in all but one of the remaining innings, but none of them were able to come around to score.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Peton!
Facts about Peton
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Brown Tabby
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Peton's Info...
I am already neutered and up to date with shots.
This adorable spry boy was found living outside with his mom Cookie prior to admission to Tree House. A dedicated TNR volunteer rescued his little family and fostered them for two months until space became available to admit Peton and his mom. Even though Peton was incredibly close to his mom before admission to Tree House, the confusion of shelter life has placed strain on their relationship. However much we would love to see Peton reunited with his mom, it may be unlikely that they will still have the bond they shared in their foster home.
Please visit Peton at our Bucktown location, at 1629 N. Ashland!

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Peton, a Chicago Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Chicago, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Chicago.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Chicago already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Chicago breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Chicago paves the way for another one to be saved.
