Parent Access to Student Records
One area of the law that generates confusion is the right of a parent to access student record information. If the student is not a dependent for tax purposes (and this may be the case with many graduate students), the parent has no right to access student record information about the child unless the parent has the child's written permission. Parents stand in the same shoes as any outside party in this situation. Affidavits of parental claims and records of student permission are maintained in the Admissions & Records Office.
If a student is claimed by a parent as a dependent for income tax purposes, then the student record information may be released at the discretion of the University to the parent as long as a notarized affidavit, along with a copy of the relevant page from the parent's most recent income tax return indicating the student's dependent status, is provided to the university. Affidavits must be updated annually; otherwise, prior written permission from the student is required. Full rights are given to either parent, regardless of who claims the child as a dependent, unless the institution has been provided with evidence that there is a court order, state statute, or legally binding document limiting those rights such as divorce, separation or custody orders.

Gertel's Last Stand
After 90 years, a Lower East Side institution shuts its doors
Last Friday, Gertel's Bakery—the most-loved of the Lower East Side's three remaining kosher bakeries—permanently closed its doors, after 90 years in business. Joanna Smith Rakoff, the editor of Nextbook.org and a longtime consumer of Gertel's prune danishes, talked to the shop's final customers about rugelach, "water challah," and the past and future of a neighborhood in flux.

Love this reconstructor....i have fine hair that is damaged from dying it....and i used this product on the damaged areas only. ..amazing! Would def buy again...
I have extremely fine hair. I do not have a lot of it either, I'm in my mid 20's, but the amount of hair I have is nearly comparable to a much older woman.Dying it and using heat tools fried it, making it look even worse.
Anyway,before I started using the K-pac series I struggled to find a product to consistantly fix my fried hair. One of my friends in beauty school recommended the K-PAC series to me, and I'm so glad she did.
I have found the deep penetrating reconstructor to be amazing, but since it's a protein treatment I can not use it each time I wash my hair. The liquid reconstruct is perfect for everyday use. I spray it on towel dried hair, and continue to blow dry. It makes my hair look smooth, and noticeably healthier. I get alot of compliments about how much better my hair looks now. There is no sign of the previous fried mess it used to be. It almost looks thicker too. I plan on staying with the K-pac line as long as its along.

I like this stuff, it is great for when my hair needs protein either from damage from coloring and styling or I went overboard on the moisture. I have slightly wavy hair that I let air dry and do not straighten 99% of the time, so I don't need this often but when I do it does help. It also seems to take the wave out of my hair. If I want my hair straighter without the use of heat, I reach for this. One lippie off for what is certainly an outrageous price, since it is mostly water, but it will last a long time, a little goes a long way.

Hello, I just purchased this product based on reviews I have read with hopes that this will help me with my hair breakage. I have used the product 3 times and so far I am pleased with the results. My hair seems less dry and damaged. I would have given this product a perfect review however I feel it is overpriced. I will update you in a month or so of using this.
November 10/12 Update
I love this product. I am so glad I tried it. I don't use it everyday. I was about 2-3 times a week. I don't use too much. I transferred it in a small spray bottle so I can take it with me when I travel.

I love this treatment, I think it has been a big part of my hair repair after bleaching a few times. It is also great at detangling without weighing my hair down. The only improvement I think would be good is if the spray was more mist like but that could be due to the consistency. I will definitely repurchase :)
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Have had this for a while now, and at the start I did notice a difference in my hair not breaking off as much, I don't know whether my hair has got used to this or not, but it doesn't seem to do much now. I use it about once a week applied to towel dried hair at the ends, if I put it on my roots it leaves my hair so greasy. Does make my hair manageable. I might try out the mask treatment instead when this runs out.

This is an amazing product especially for fine hair. I have been using it for years and it makes my hair smooth and manageable, without weighing it down.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This made a big difference in my hair. I woke up to well-behaved hair that was soft and less frizzy. It also smelled great while I was spraying it throughout my hair. It doesn't leave a residue and it didnt weigh my hair down. I use this when my hair needs a break from moisturizing products or after prolonged exposure to sun or wind. I really feel like my hair is stronger whenever I use this. If you are sensitive to protein based products, I wouldn't recommend this.
5 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
If like me, you have fine, fried, dyed hair, then these treatments are a GODSEND! I spray this through shampooed, towel-dried hair, then spray a leave-in conditioner through and my hair feels more like a human's and less like a very well-played-with Barbie dolls' tangled mess!

Follow up. I have found some information regarding this problem. It is said that cap (#2455) is bad. Also upon further inspection I have found some resistors, diodes and a transistor that looks to have gotten pretty hot. Especially transistor # (7461), I beleive it is a transistor. It has a colector, base and an emittor (CBE) Can someone tell me what it is. The #s on the transistor are BC337 -25 :310 2 Dioodes appear to have gotten hot they are (6460) with markings DG3 and 3/6 and (6461) with RGP30J 03/6. 2 resistors that measured 148 Ohms resistance (3477) & (3478). Knowing electronic components as little as I do I think it would be reasonable to replace items that have been hot as their values and charateristics will change. If someone can help me identify these parts and suggest a place to buy them it would be appreciated. |

iDol Surfboards is a custom surfboard manufacturing company operated by a group of wake surfers and Great Lakes surfers in Minnesota. We met surfing in Lake Superior and learned how to wake surf in 2006. We realized that other wakesurf boards weren't delivering the ride we wanted while wake surfing behind our surf boats, so we quickly went to work learning the art of surfboard shaping to build progressive shapes designed to deliver the perfect combination of smooth gliding turns, like ocean surfing, and the pop of the most progressive wake surfboards on the market. In 2010, iDol officially launched as a company at the World Wake Surfing Championships in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Since then, Idol has helped progressed the sport of wake surfing and expanded the quiver to offer custom surfboards for all freshwater surfing applications, including wake surfing, stand-up-paddle (SUP), great lakes surfing, kite surfing, river surfing, and artificial wave surfing. In the age of the CNC machine, iDol has stayed true to the sacred art of handcrafted surfboard shaping. Every iDol surfboard we make is handmade from blank creation to final sanding, which means any aspect of your surfboard can be customized to best suit your wants and needs.
In 2014, we are launching a production line of wakesurf and paddle boards called iSurf. While our passion is building the perfect custom board for you, now you can order a stock iSurf board and have it tomorrow! Have a look around our site. If you have any questions, please contact us and we'll be happy to assist you in any way we can.

Eating a lot of fruits and vegetables may help smokers quit, according to a new study.
Tobacco contains nicotine, a highly addictive drug, in addition to the 69 chemicals known to cause cancer. All major medical institutions acknowledge that quitting smoking greatly increases a person's health prospects.
Nicotine is the most abundant psychoactive drug in tobacco products that produces dependence. Nicotine can produce both excitation and stimulation along with relaxation at the same time, making it a very attractive drug for addictive personalities. Both smoking tobacco and smokeless tobacco (chewing, dipping) can lead to nicotine dependence. Chewing and dipping tobacco is placed between the lip and gums or in the cheek. Nicotine dependence is the most common form of chemical dependence in the United States. Research suggests that nicotine is as addictive as heroin, cocaine or alcohol. Examples of nicotine withdrawal symptoms include irritability, anxiety, difficulty concentrating and increased appetite.
Many different approaches are used to help smokers quit. The pharmacological approach often contains various nicotine replacement therapies, such as the patch, nicotine gum or lozenges, or even a nicotine inhaler. Some alternative therapies include certain herbal combinations, such as kava and chamomile, acupuncture, hypnotherapy, psychotherapy and relaxation therapy. Some individuals simply pick a quit date and stick with it.
In a new study, researchers conducted a population-based study on a random selection of 1,000 smokers at least 25 years-old to evaluate the potential effects fruit and vegetable consumption may have on smoking intensity and dependence over the course of 14 months.
The researchers found that participants who ate more fruits and vegetables smoked fewer daily cigarettes, scored lower on the Nicotine Dependence Syndrome Scale and lasted a longer period of time without smoking. Furthermore, participants who ate the most fruits and vegetables were over three times more likely to successfully refrain from smoking for at least 30 days by the 14 month follow-up period than those who ate the least.
The authors concluded that eating a lot of fruits and vegetables may be beneficial for smokers trying to quit. Well-designed clinical trials are needed to further evaluate these findings.
Many other integrative therapies have been studied for their potential effects on smoking habits. Sensory cues associated with cigarette smoking can suppress certain smoking withdrawal symptoms, including the craving for cigarettes. Inhalation of black pepper essential oil may reduce cravings and physical symptoms associated with cigarette smoking withdrawal. Additionally, early research indicates that auricular acupressure may help with quitting smoking. Further research is needed to confirm these results.

California's avocado deal is winding down. Peru finished its first full summertime deal in the U.S. in 2012, and Mexico started its new-crop shipments late in summer.
Fall and winter, though, belong to Chile, according to some marketing agents in the avocado industry.
Many shippers are typically involved in some or all of the deals, to varying degrees, and there's some balance involved, they say, in coordinating the deals.
Chile, for example, delayed its first peak-season shipments into the U.S. until most of the large California crop was winding down, marketing agents said.
"We are very complementary with California production and, with Peru supplying the U.S., our window will start later compared to previous seasons, mainly from October to March," said Adolfo Ochagavia, president of the Chilean Hass Avocado Committee.
Chile competes head-to-head with Mexico, which is the largest supplier of avocados to the U.S., but there's plenty of room for fruit from both countries, Ochagavia said.
"There's an important place for the Chilean avocados," he said.
There is some coordination involved, at least between Chile and California, said Maggie Bezart, marketing director with the Washington, D.C.-based Chilean Avocado Importers Association.
"The extension of California's season works out well for both (Chile and California)," she said.
Mexico's large, continuous supply doesn't present a problem for Chile, Bezart said.
"We just need to get people to eat more of them because retailers are doing an incredible job of promoting them all year long," she said.
Maintaining clear communications with growers and customers is important in coordinating the deals, said Doug Meyer, sales and marketing director for Temecula, Calif.-based West Pak Avocado.
"It's a good partnership both ways, but there has to be a willingness on everybody involved in the avocado program to be flexible, based on how difficult it is to bring all this fruit to market from the different countries and have it in the right place at the right time for our customers," he said.
Customers benefit from having options, said Dana Thomas, president of Bloomington, Calif.-based Index Fresh Inc.
"If you're XYZ customer and you have a certain set of priorities, that set of priorities may match Chile, but another customer may have priorities that would match California or Mexico, so it's a matter of working with the customers on an individualized basis," he said.

We Will Not Have You … Today
Wildlife includes all non-domesticated plants, animals and other organisms. Domesticating wild plant and animal species for human benefit has occurred many times all over the planet, and has a major impact on the environment, both positive and negative. Wildlife can be found in all ecosystems. Deserts, rain forests, plains, and other areas including the most developed urban sites, all have distinct forms of wildlife. While the term in popular culture usually refers to animals that are untouched by human factors, most scientists agree that wildlife around the world is impacted by human activities.
Anthropologists believe that the Stone Age peoples and hunter-gatherers relied on wildlife, both plant and animal, for their food. In fact, some species may have been hunted to extinction by early human hunters. Today, hunting, fishing, or gathering wildlife is still a significant food source in some parts of the world. In other areas, hunting and non-commercial fishing are mainly seen as a sport or recreation, with the edible meat as mostly a side benefit.

Weymouth New Testament (WNT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 As He passed by, He saw a man who had been blind from his birth. | 1 As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. |
2 So His disciples asked Him, "Rabbi, who sinned--this man or his parents--that he was born blind?" | 2 His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" |
3 "Neither he nor his parents sinned," answered Jesus, "but he was born blind in order that God's mercy might be openly shown in him. | 3 "Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life. |
4 We must do the works of Him who sent me while there is daylight. Night is coming on, when no one can work. | 4 As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. |
5 When I am in the world, I am the Light of the world." | 5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world." |
6 After thus speaking, He spat on the ground, and then, kneading the dust and spittle into clay, He smeared the clay over the man's eyes and said to him, | 6 Having said this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man's eyes. |
7 "Go and wash in the pool of Siloam" --the name means `Sent.' So he went and washed his eyes, and returned able to see. | 7 "Go," he told him, "wash in the Pool of Siloam" (this word means Sent). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing. |
8 His neighbours, therefore, and the other people to whom he had been a familiar object because he was a beggar, began asking, "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?" | 8 His neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging asked, "Isn't this the same man who used to sit and beg?" |
9 "Yes it is," replied some of them. "No it is not," said others, "but he is like him." His own statement was, "I am the man." | 9 Some claimed that he was. Others said, "No, he only looks like him." But he himself insisted, "I am the man." |
10 "How then were your eyes opened?" they asked. | 10 "How then were your eyes opened?" they demanded. |
11 "He whose name is Jesus," he answered, "made clay and smeared my eyes with it, and then told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and obtained sight." | 11 He replied, "The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. He told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed, and then I could see." |
12 "Where is he?" they inquired, but the man did not know. | 12 "Where is this man?" they asked him. "I don't know," he said. |
13 They brought him to the Pharisees--the man who had been blind. | 13 They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind. |
14 Now the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened the man's eyes was the Sabbath. | 14 Now the day on which Jesus had made the mud and opened the man's eyes was a Sabbath. |
15 So the Pharisees renewed their questioning as to how he had obtained his sight. "He put clay on my eyes," he replied, "and I washed, and now I can see." | 15 Therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. "He put mud on my eyes," the man replied, "and I washed, and now I see." |
16 This led some of the Pharisees to say, "That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath." "How is it possible for a bad man to do such miracles?" argued others. | 16 Some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath." But others asked, "How can a sinner do such miraculous signs?" So they were divided. |
17 And there was a division among them. So again they asked the once blind man, "What is your account of him? --for he opened your eyes." "He is a Prophet," he replied. | 17 Finally they turned again to the blind man, "What have you to say about him? It was your eyes he opened." The man replied, "He is a prophet." |
18 The Jews, however, did not believe the statement concerning him--that he had been blind and had obtained his sight--until they called his parents and asked them, | 18 The Jews still did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight until they sent for the man's parents. |
19 "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How is it then that he can now see?" | 19 "Is this your son?" they asked. "Is this the one you say was born blind? How is it that now he can see?" |
20 "We know," replied the parents, "that this is our son and that he was born blind; | 20 "We know he is our son," the parents answered, "and we know he was born blind. |
21 but how it is that he can now see or who has opened his eyes we do not know. Ask him himself; he is of full age; he himself will give his own account of it." | 21 But how he can see now, or who opened his eyes, we don't know. Ask him. He is of age; he will speak for himself." |
22 Such was their answer, because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already settled among themselves that if any one should acknowledge Jesus as the Christ, he should be excluded from the synagogue. | 22 His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews, for already the Jews had decided that anyone who acknowledged that Jesus was the Christ would be put out of the synagogue. |
23 That was why his parents said, "He is of full age: ask him himself." | 23 That was why his parents said, "He is of age; ask him." |
24 A second time therefore they called the man who had been blind, and said, "Give God the praise: we know that that man is a sinner." | 24 A second time they summoned the man who had been blind. "Give glory to God, " they said. "We know this man is a sinner." |
25 "Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know," he replied; "one thing I know--that I was once blind and that now I can see." | 25 He replied, "Whether he is a sinner or not, I don't know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!" |
26 "What did he do to you?" they asked; "how did he open your eyes?" | 26 Then they asked him, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?" |
27 "I have told you already," he replied, "and you did not listen to me. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also mean to be disciples of his?" | 27 He answered, "I have told you already and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his disciples, too?" |
28 Then they railed at him, and said, "You are that man's disciple, but we are disciples of Moses. | 28 Then they hurled insults at him and said, "You are this fellow's disciple! We are disciples of Moses! |
29 We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this fellow we do not know where he comes from." | 29 We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this fellow, we don't even know where he comes from." |
30 "Why, this is marvellous!" the man replied; "you do not know where he comes from, and yet he has opened my eyes! | 30 The man answered, "Now that is remarkable! You don't know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes. |
31 We know that God does not listen to bad people, but that if any one is a God-fearing man and obeys Him, to him He listens. | 31 We know that God does not listen to sinners. He listens to the godly man who does his will. |
32 From the beginning of the world such a thing was never heard of as that any one should open the eyes of a man blind from his birth. | 32 Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind. |
33 Had that man not come from God, he could have done nothing." | 33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing." |
34 "You," they replied, "were wholly begotten and born in sin, and do *you* teach *us*?" And they put him out of the synagogue. | 34 To this they replied, "You were steeped in sin at birth; how dare you lecture us!" And they threw him out. |
35 Jesus heard that they had done this. So having found him, He asked him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?" | 35 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and when he found him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?" |
36 "Who is He, Sir?" replied the man. "Tell me, so that I may believe in Him." | 36 "Who is he, sir?" the man asked. "Tell me so that I may believe in him." |
37 "You have seen Him," said Jesus; "and not only so: He is now speaking to you." | 37 Jesus said, "You have now seen him; in fact, he is the one speaking with you." |
38 "I believe, Sir," he said. And he threw himself at His feet. | 38 Then the man said, "Lord, I believe," and he worshiped him. |
39 "I came into this world," said Jesus, "to judge men, that those who do not see may see, and that those who do see may become blind." | 39 Jesus said, "For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind." |
40 These words were heard by those of the Pharisees who were present, and they asked Him, "Are *we* also blind?" | 40 Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, "What? Are we blind too?" |
41 "If you were blind," answered Jesus, "you would have no sin; but as a matter of fact you boast that you see. So your sin remains!" | 41 Jesus said, "If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains. |

Dear Editor:
Concerning your article "Is anyone, even the USTA, FMCP's friend?" (Feb. 28) the old question that comes to mind is the renovation or lack thereof of the New York State Pavilion. Considering the fact that in recent years both the Queens Museum and the Theatre in the Park have both been upgraded and the Theatre in the Park is physically connected to the NYS Pavilion, why has this site never been included in any rehabilitation project where the other sites have received monies from various sources. The NYS Pavilion is an eyesore now and it would be a great asset to fix up and get the elevator going to the balconies. The Parks Department is already in control of it and could run the Pavilion for an entrance fee. Just a thought from a native New Yorker and Queens resident.

But unless I am guaranteed that Tink is going to be their on a particular day, I do not want to spend an hour doing hair, makeup, and costume all to find out that we have to comeback the next day to get that perfect pic! I have heard that their isn't a set cast of fairies for the hollow, and that usually there were three, so I was wondering that if Tink was an everyday fairy or if I would just have to check?

Ford Expedition Air Ride Suspension
airconman Posts: 13So, 01fordeb, it has been a year since you did the conversion. How is your EB Exp riding? Do the monroe coils keep the back end up nicely? Do you ever haul a healthy load and do the coils handle it well? I did the conversion with the moog coils and have to say it is better than dealing with the air suspension problems, but the moog coils are marginal in my opinion. The back end sags, especially with any kind of load. I want to replace the coils with something beefier and eliminate the sag. Assuming you are still positive on the conversion, can you tell me what model monroe coils you have?

airconman Posts: 13Okay, 9 months after converting my '97 Exp to the moog coils in the rear I am finding the truck sags too much in the back. Has anyone had a better experience with different coils? and if so, with what brand and model? I am happy to not be dealing with air bag system problems but I want a better load handling coil than the moog coils I have on now...
Thanks for any help!

bolambz76 Posts: 1hi i have problem with my 98 expedition air suspension,i will try to describe it as possible..
# when i start the truck the compressor kicks in and work prefect the front and rear air shock works to its level then compressor stops..i barely hear the compressor again when the truck is moving or running i guess its a good sign....
# then notice when i turn off the engine i heard couple clicking sound coming from the rear and my rear end starts to go down about 1 to 2 inches then stops.. IS THIS NORMAL???
#then after whole day off not running the rear end drops and rear driver side sits on the tire and the rear passenger aside almost sits on the tire..IS THIS NORMAL JUST FOR COUPLE OF HOURS THE REAR END DROP??? IF NOT HOW LONG WOULD IT LAST UNTIL THE REAR END DROPS?
#then i turn off the switch still the rear end drops,so there must be something wrong with it....
#Where can i start looking for for the problem? need help...ty -
jrod12 Posts: 1I just put the monroe 90010 coil spring conversion kit on my 98 expedition after my air springs failed. I found that the back end sits up about 1 to 2 inches higher than the front and am looking for a solution. Did your moog springs keep the back end up on yours at first before it started to sag? I also hooked a heavy camper trailer to the back of my expedition and it only sagged about 2 inches

bigdadbear Posts: 7My 2003 Expedition Air Suspension Module (ASM) had all 4 air bags deflated about 1 year ago.. the only thing the dealer did was reprogram the ASM.. The dealer had no clue as to why...
Everything worked well until this week. Ironically the same thing has happened--- All four Bags have deflated. I can activate the compressor/motor by jumping the relay and checked the air lines going to the solenoids--- I found no leaks...
I would like to manually inflate the bags to check the bags as well as Keep this EXPO from riding like a Bronco Horse.
I am not sure how to best activate the solenoids at each bag--- I know I can disconnect the ASM connector from each Solenoid and apply 12 volts across the coil to activate each solenoid---
While I think it could be the ASM needs reprograming AGAIN...I am reluctant to take it to the dealer without making other component checks ----
IF anyone has pulled the Motor/ compressor relay off and checked the voltage at the relay connector/wires I would appreciate your Voltage Readings---- The readings I got were the Following: At the 2 large connections that go to the Motor/compressor I get 12 volts on 1 and zero volts or groundd on the other. The 2 smaller connector/wires ,which activate the relay by the ASM, get 12 Volts on one and the other which i think goes back to the ASM reads about 3 volts.
All your suggestion, information, or references to help me will be greatly appreciated.

My Air springs appear fine (per viewed pictures and a soap/water spray narrowed it down to the area of the "SOLENOID". I am going to replace the $ 25.00 solenoid before the $100.00 air springs hoping that works.

Airdrie woman convicted of accessing personal health informationBy: Matt Durnan | Posted: Thursday, May 08, 2014 10:48 am An Airdrie woman has been convicted of accessing the personal health information of 34 people and uttering forged documents. Airdrie resident Christie McCarthy pleaded guilty to one global charge for improper access of health information under the Health Information Act (HIA) and three charges under the Criminal Code for uttering forged documents. Alberta Information and Privacy Commissioner Jill Clayton opened an offence investigation into unauthorized access of health information following a breach that was reported to her office by Calgary Lab Services. In the fall of 2012, McCarthy was charged with 34 offenses under the HIA as well as six Criminal Code offenses. The agreed statement of facts detailed how during McCarthy�s time as a lab assistant at the Calgary Laboratory Services Patient Service Centre in Airdrie, she altered a lab test result and unlawfully accessed the health information of 34 people including neighbours, acquaintances, and family members of a man she was in a personal relationship with. �Our office takes it very seriously when someone accesses health information for purposes unrelated to patient care and we will continue to hold offenders accountable in these circumstances,� said Assistant Commissioner Marilyn Mun in a press release. McCarthy has received a four-month sentence, followed by eight months probation in relation to the Criminal Code offences and a $500 fine in relation to the HIA offences. This is the third time that charges have been laid under the HIA and the third conviction. Comments

Hoping someone can help with this one:
Just bought a 2002 Tddi Zetec with 110k miles on it. Was going great for 1st week, then intercooler pipe split - replaced this straight away and goes really well again.
However it has now started to run really cool on the gauge (hardly makes the 1st marker on the gauge under light driving and JUST gets to mid marker if driven really hard but soon cools down again as soon as I back off the throttle). The heater has also started to be a little erratic - sometimes it heats, sometimes it just blows cold air.
Any suggestions or what's up or where to start? I read a few of the forums before buying and i'm sure i read something about a "diaphram" (thermostat???) causing these problems (therefore a cheap and easy repair) but i can't for the life of me find the forum now!?!?
On the subject of the heater, is there any way of stopping it automatically switching on the aircon EVERY time i turn the air direction to the screen?
Additionally, when revved up to about 2-2500 rpm it gets a loud "rattle" from the engine. This is only for a bit and if acceleration is continued then it goes past this and quietens down again.
Many thanks in advance.

The Taj Mahal and George Harrison – two legendary figures in one photo, why not!
This snapshot was just one of a handful of self-portraits taken by The Beatles' lead guitarist using a camera equipped with fisheye lens during a pilgrimage to Bombay with his first wife, Pattie Boyd-Harrison, in September 1966. By that time, George was said to have already taken a keen interest on Indian culture and mysticism. It isn't any wonder, then, that he went there himself to visit holy places, as well as study sitar and yoga with different gurus!
In addition to these pictures, George was said to have also taken videos in 8 mm format. Unfortunately, we can't find any of these footage as of the moment. However, we'll leave you with some more of these quirky selfies by the man himself!

May 14, 2014 6:04 PM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Authorities say a drunken airline passenger groped three women before air marshals handcuffed him and the London-bound plane turned back to Philadelphia.
Forty-year-old Robert Coppack of La Verne, California, will remain in custody until a detention hearing Monday in federal court.
An FBI affidavit says two women seated near Coppack complained about him on Tuesday's overnight flight, prompting the crew to steer him toward the back of the plane. The affidavit says he then groped a retired flight attendant as he walked down the aisle.
Coppack is charged with intimidating a crew member.
Neither relatives listed at his California address nor a public defender returned calls for comment Wednesday.
US Airways spokeswoman Michelle Mohr says the flight eventually arrived at Heathrow, about four hours late.

Another new Handpresso product this week: the Handpresso Wild Hybrid Outdoor Set. This set is quite possible the ultimate portable espresso kit – the only thing it's missing is a grinder (a Porlex would go nicely).
The set includes: a Handpresso Wild Hybrid portable espresso machine, which can brew either E.S.E. pods or ground coffee; an insulated flask (with built in thermometer) to carry hot water; 4 unbreakable espresso cups; and a serviette to wipe up any mess. It all comes in a lightweight, yet tough case with extra storage pockets and fitted with an adjustable shoulder strap. So it's perfect for enjoying espresso outdoors: whether on a relaxing picnic or climbing up the side of a mountain. You can even take it to the office with you: we're sure you'll get some envious looks.

In our kitchen remodel, we had originally planned on a slide-in dual fuel range and had the gas line installed in the middle of that 30" opening. At the last minute, we decided an electric wall oven installed in an oven base cabinet there, with a gas cooktop would suite our kitchen better. When I looked up installation instructions for the wall oven, it said a "typical" installation has the gas connection in an adjacent cabinet. Will having the gas connection behind the wall oven be a problem? Should we pay to have the gas line moved - which would involve going into a different bay and more line than there currently is, so pricey - or is its' location fine?
Thanks. |

The gas line must have a shutoff that is readily accessible . |
Thanks. It would still be accessible - there is a sliding cabinet drawer under the wall oven that can slide out and you can reach the shutoff. I was interested about if there is any code requiring distances from wall ovens for gas supply lines -there wouldn't be much space between the wall and the oven for the gas line to run, and I didn't know if that was any kind of code violation. |
"distances from wall ovens for gas supply lines" None. The gas in the line cannot burn since there is no oxygen present. |
Thanks brickeyee! |

Losing weight is hard, but there are a lot of important reasons to do it. The most important reasons are to improve your overall health and quality of life.
It is good to know you are not alone when it comes to struggling with your weight. Approximately sixty-six percent of adults in the United States are overweight, with almost thirty percent categorized as obese. Unfortunately, overweight or obese individuals have an increased risk for several serious health conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, Type II diabetes, and some types of cancer. In fact, obesity is the leading contributor to illness or premature death.
The good news is there are real solutions for you through the Roper St. Francis Bariatric & Metabolic Services program, an ASMBS Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence, The Joint Commission Disease-Specific Certification and Cigna 3 Star Quality Bariatric Center. We offer both surgical and non-surgical options to help patients lose weight. Our program provides personalized information to help you make the right decision. Our weight loss surgery program offers three bariatric surgery options--gastric bypass, adjustable gastric banding and gastric sleeve resection-- designed to support you every step of the way by providing a lifetime of support. Best of all, our program does not charge a program fee.
In addition, a medically supervised weight management program is available as a non-surgical option to weight loss.
The decision to have bariatric surgery is life-changing and should be made after careful research and consideration. Our goal is to provide our patients with the opportunity to take control of and transform their health in order to live a happy, healthy life.

text: Work It Out Thanks to the Olympics, we're in an athletic state of mind. Our editors share their must-have workout gear and where they go to sweat it out. Jul 2012 | by W magazine tweet share on facebook Share pin it share on google+ Next Up - Begins in 5 Start Slideshow 1/9 Christina Caldwell, Online Director WHAT: I'll try almost any workout once and every so often become completely obsessed with something or someone. Most recently I've been a little too into Shaun T's Insanity (and before that it was Kristi Molinaro's 30/60/90 at Equinox), but the only routine I've consistently gone back to year over year is Physique57. WHO: My all-time favorite instructors are Alicia (she was particularly helpful during my pregnancy last year), Alexander, Chanelle, Antonietta and Nora. WHERE: Always at the Spring Street location. GEAR: One of the things I love most about Physique is that I don't have to carry a lot with me. I pack their branded socks, leggings, sports bra, and a tank and pick up a SmartWater at the front desk. Tracey Anderson for Edition01 leggings, $125, Helmut Lang tank, $80, Nike Lunarglide Running Shoe $120, Nike reversible sports bra $30, nike.com, Physique57 socks, $13. July 2012 2/9 Karla Martinez, Fashion Market and Accessories Director What: I do a little bit of everything: yoga, Pilates, running, and strength training. Where: My exercise schedule is pretty set in stone: I start my week at Pilates Challenge on Lexington and 83rd on Monday mornings, Wednesday and Friday consist of morning runs on the Westside Highway or if I am lucky in Central Park, Tuesday and Thursday I am at Punch Fitness at 6:30 am. On Saturday, Scott Harig classes at Pure Yoga are amazing. Who: By far the one I look forward to the most are Monday mornings with Miriam at Pilates Challenge. I recently moved, but am so devoted to my studio that I take a $15 taxi to get up there. Gear: My closet is filled with exercise tops and pants, but quite honestly, I hate tricky tops and fancy pants. I find Zobha yoga wear to be incredible comfortable and not fussy. Zobha Classic Racer Tank, $58; Zobha Racer Capri, $72, zobha.com; Nike Lunarglide+ 4 Premium shoe, $120; ALO Hoodie, $46. July 2012 3/9 Claudia Mata, Jewelry and Accessories Director What: I've been practicing yoga for several years, and I usually prefer a faster-paced, power flow, but some days if the mood strikes, I'll take a more stretching-based and meditative class. I do always ask for extra focus on the abs, my weakness. Who: I can't say enough good things about my yogi (and husband) Zander Gladish, who has gathered quite a following for his ability to transform your body. My ultimate (yet lofty) goal is to be in as amazing shape as he is! Where: He is available for private and semi-private classes (zandergladish.com) or also teaches at various studios around the city like Yoga Vida, SLT, Circuit of Change, Yoga to the People, etc. Gear: For my clothing, comfort and ease of movement with my clothing is key! As for gear, I prefer a more cushioned yoga mat and am loving the one from MyCustomYogaMat.com. Every time I bring it around, I always get asked about it—everyone loves a monogram! Yoga mat, $40, MyCustomYogaMat.com; Monrow tissue tank, $56, shopbop.com; Adidas by Stella McCartney tights, $70, adidas.com July 2012 4/9 Nora Milch, Associate Accessories Editor What: I'm a regular at Chaise23—it's a 55-minute cardio and sculpting class done in their "fitness chair" using bungee cords hung from the ceiling. It sounds a bit crazy, but there's a bit of a ballet and Pilates feel to it, and for me, it all just means a great workout. Where: Chaise 23 studio is located in Gramercy. And they just opened a location in East Hampton. Who: The best part of this studio is that all of the teachers are equally amazing! So far I've tried classes taught by Maria Carofano, Sarah Taylor, Criscia Richardson, and Catherine Scanlon. Gear: No matter the work out, my attire generally remains the same. I stick to black workout leggings and an oversized, comfortable T-shirt or tank top. And as always, the most important accessory is a great pair of shoes. These Brooks are my favorites: light enough to climb all over the "chair" but also has enough support for jumping around too. Brooks shoes, $90, brooksrunning.com; Spanx pants, $78, net-a-porter.com; Nike sports bra, $30, nike.com; Nation LTD tank, $78, blacklabelboutique.com; Pierre Hardy tote, $850, net-a-porter.com. July 2012 5/9 Vanessa Lawrence, Fashion Writer What: Running. Specifically, five miles four to five times a week and eight to ten miles on Sunday. If I'm forced to use a treadmill because of traveling, I alternate days between 45 minutes at a consistent pace and intervals. Where: Central Park, the reservoir and the Park drive/loop, depending on the day and my mood. Under duress, I'll use a treadmill. Who: Alone, except when joined by my running partner Nancy Chilton and on Sundays, her daughter, Ali. Gear: I tend to favor black clothes, even when running outdoors in the summer and I never wear shorts because I tan easily and short tan lines are not appealing. Prep and recovery are just as important as workout gear. My fuel of choice is two Ito-en Sencha shots, pure concentrated green tea with no sugar. And post-workout, I love coconut water for the electrolytes and potassium (and it has way fewer calories than a sports drink). Nike Filament Women's Running Capris, $48; Nike Miler Women's Running Shirt, $38; Wrightsock Low Quarter socks, $10; Mizuno Women's Wave Inspire 8 Running Shoes, $115; Zensah Running Bra, $36; Sony Active Sport In-Ear Headphones, $90; Sencha Shot case, $38; Vita Coco 12 pack, $22. July 2012 6/9 Virginia VanZanten, Associate Editor WHAT: Nothing leaves me fantastically sore the next day like an hour of boot camp. Plus the ropes, army crawls, relays, kettle bells, and other crazy exercises are the best way to get me out of the usual treadmill rut. WHERE: Fortunately, I live a couple of blocks from the Brooklyn Heights Equinox. WHO: Adrian Maddox for Bootcamp and Gregg Cook for Whipped. GEAR: I go for a great, lightweight pair of gym shoes from Brooks and love Lululemon gear, particularly for the long size in pants and free hemming in-store. A godsend for tall gals. And for a post-workout reward, I treat myself to the green juice from Cooler Cleanse. Brooks Pure Cadence, $140; Lululemon Groove Pant, $98; Nike Pro Hypercool Tank, $36. July 2012 7/9 Will Kahn, Accessories Editor WHAT: Call me crazy but I love a run in the summer heat. I have been hitting the West Side Highway and running from Midtown to Tribeca and back. But on Tuesday mornings, I hit David Barton Gym for Asphalt Abs class. It's 45 full minutes of abs and leaves me sore for a week. I love it. Who: The class is taught by model Joe Lazo, former face of Hugo Boss. He's very motivating at 7am. WHERE: David Barton's Chelsea location at 23rd St. GEAR: Sleeveless is almost mandatory and Nike's tank top breathe really well. I also love the pop of color in the two in one Nike shorts and bright running shoes. And I always have Larabar post workout to keep my energy up. It's all natural and gluten free. Nike's running tank, $30, nike.com; Nike's two-in-one shorts, $50, nike.com; Nike's lunarguide running shoe, $110, nike.com; LÄRabar Ginger Snap, $25.45 For 16 Bars, larabarstore.com.

Asian Studies Program
Many leading scholars have declared this century the Asian Century. Not only is Asia home to nearly 60% of the world's population and much of its history, but today it is also one of the most important regions of the world. The Asian Studies program is therefore dedicated to the study of Asia, both as a vital part of the world today and as a central part of human history.
SMU's Asian Studies is the University's institutional nexus of experts, events, and programs related to Asia and is the key contact point for the media and the greater DFW area.
For undergraduates, Asian Studies is also an interdisciplinary minor that introduces students to different forms of political activity, social relations, religious traditions, and literatures. Students explore a world that since the nineteenth century has come to share in the dilemmas of modernity that challenge us all. For some students, this inquiry provides a challenging and satisfying addition to a liberal arts education. For some, it is an opportunity to restore connections to an ancestral past. For others it leads to graduate studies or is the beginning of a professional career in international business or law.

Thank you both. I'm happy now to just do as I have been with it and see how it goes.There are only a few flowers and not that sizey so I haven't noticed the smell yet. I'll go and have a sniff later and then I can let you know Salino.
Hello again everyone, me again!
Sorry for the million questions today.
I bought a beautiful Wisteria "Amethyst Falls" a couple of weeks ago. Already quite well established and on a framework. All I've done is transferred it to a bigger pot and kept it from drying out and its in a sunny position as stated on the tag.
I've notice today that a few of the leaves have large brown patches on them, and several more have what looks to be rust spots on them.
I'm hoping I can stop it getting any worse before it gets better but not sure what's causing it. Other than the few leaves with problems, it's still looking pretty good and it is flowering so I'm hoping its not something that will go rampaging through the whole plant and kill it off.
Advice and suggestions gratefully received. Pics below (again, bear with them, its a blustery old day and trying to take the pics was like a comedy of errors!!). Of course as soon as I came back inside, dead calm!
Brown splodge in middle of leaf, which came off in my hand as I tried to get a pic.
Good afternoon everyone,
Your advice and assistance please.
My OH found two of these plants in their pots dumped at the recycling yard about a week ago and bought them home for me.
They aren't dead (yet) but they don't look fully alive either.
I pinched out and cut off anything dead or dying straight off and they looked much better just for that. I've positioned the pots in full sun, as the tag says and as it says they like dry soil haven't watered them so far (although its rained on them a bit!).
I've noticed however that in the last week, both plants have just as many dead or dying leaves as they had when I first saw them. What am I doing wrong? I'm sure they must need some moisture from time to time as I don't see how they can grow without it, but how much?
Both plants have lots and lots of flower buds in spite of all the dead looking leaves. Pics below. Apologies if they are rubbish pics, its blowing up a gale outside and the flippin things refused to hold still!
Thanks Daintiness, I was wondering if it was self seeder or not. I'm really pleased that it is, it would be lovely to have a lot more.
That was quick 4thPanda! Thank you. I'll have a scout on the internet and see if I can find out which variety. I don't know anything about aquilegia's at all so I'll need to find out how to care for it. The infernal wind is doing its best to kill it off as we speak. Grrrr!
Good morning everyone,
I found this gorgeous guy growing in my garden a couple of weeks ago. Whether its a present from the birds this year or whether it didn't come up last year due to the awful weather I don't know, but I love it.
No idea what it is though. Help please. Thank you.
Sorry the pics are a bit dark but hopefully you can ID from these. The flowers have since opened into what I think you'd call bell shaped.
Dan sorry didn't mean to sound as though you can only do this on a PC but that's they only way I do it and the way I knew, I've no idea how to do it by other means than the PC but others on here will be able to help you with that although I see you already have the ID's you needed so that's great. Pretty Azalea's
Daniel if you're on a PC you'll see a picture of a tree above the text box where you type you're bits and pieces, just click on that and then select which pic you want to upload and the rest I'm sure you'll know!
Looks like an Apple tree to me Becky but I'm certainly no expert. I'm sure someone else with help you with a positive ID
Can't help with 1 - 3 Victoria but I would have gone with Ribes for number 4 as well! Not so many plants that smell like cat wee!

Her left thumb and wrist wrapped in a cast colored with stripes of green and yellow, Amanda Johnson stood at the top of the key Saturday morning in Matthew Knight Arena and methodically went over Oregon's offense with Liz Brenner.
The huddle involved the Ducks' latest addition to the injury report and the Ducks' latest addition, period. The Oregon women's basketball team will be without Johnson for at least four weeks due a fractured thumb, UO coach Paul Westhead said Saturday, and hope that some of the production she provided is replaced by Brenner, a freshman on the UO volleyball team.
Westhead contacted Ducks volleyball coach Jim Moore on Friday about the possibility of Brenner becoming a two-sport athlete in college. She was that and more in high school, a former prep state champion in volleyball, basketball and track and field at Jesuit High in Portland, and an all-state softball player.
"I was very clear that, this was a volleyball player, and nothing was going to happen unless volleyball said, 'We have no objections,' " Westhead said. "We needed help, and he was aware of that."
The addition of Brenner, who was cleared Saturday morning by UO administration to practice with the basketball team, became necessary following the diagnosis to Johnson, who was injured in Oregon' loss at Denver last week. Johnson, a two-time honorable mention all-conference pick, averaged a double-double in nine games prior to missing Wednesday's loss at Nevada due to the injury.
"I just feel badly for her, for all the time and effort she's put in for this university," Westhead said of Johnson, who was coaching up her teammates during the Nevada game before taking Brenner under her wing Saturday morning at practice. "She was in the middle of her senior year, this fruition year, and performing as well as she ever has."
Johnson was among the leaders nationally in both scoring and rebounding prior to the injury, with 20.1 points and 10.7 rebounds per game. She was replaced in the starting lineup at Nevada by sophomore Deanna Weaver, who responded with 18 points and seven rebounds.
Westhead said Weaver will start again when the UO women (7-3) return to action Monday at home against Cal State-Northridge. Freshman post Megan Carpenter also figures to garner more playing time in the absence of Johnson.
The NCAA reviews each athlete's amateur status on a sport-by-sport basis, and so Brenner — already cleared in volleyball — will need to be cleared in basketball before competing in a game, a process that could potentially be completed in time for Monday's game.
Westhead said the Ducks had seen Brenner play basketball for her club team while she was in high school, but Oregon did not aggressively pursue her as a recruit. As a high school senior she averaged 15.9 points and 8.9 rebounds per game.

I finally got the bowling game to load and work. Very addictive and not as easy as it looks. I found more ways to have trick shots than I knew existed. Unfortunately, I didn't make any of them. I think my ball was too heavy, or maybe my shoes didn't fit right. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the level of skill!

Serves 6
- Kitchen twine
- 6 center-cut veal shanks (each about 2 inches thick)
- 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
- 2 cups finely chopped onions
- 3/4 cup finely chopped carrot
- 3 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
- All purpose flour
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 2 1/2 cups canned diced tomatoes in juice
- 4 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
- 2 3 x 1/2-inch lemon peel strips (yellow part only)
- 3 cups (or more) canned beef broth
- 2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
Tie kitchen twine around circumference of each veal shank so that veal will hold shape while cooking. Set heavy large pot over medium heat (pot should be big enough to accommodate veal arranged in single layer). Add 1/4 cup butter to pot and melt. Add onions, carrot and 2 1/2 teaspoons garlic and sauté until vegetables are tender but not brown, about 10 minutes. Remove pot from heat.
Sprinkle veal shanks with salt and pepper. Coat veal with flour, shaking off excess. Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add veal to skillet and cook until brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer veal to pot with vegetables. Discard fat in skillet.
Add 1 cup white wine to skillet and boil until liquid is reduced to 1/4 cup, scraping up browned bits, about 3 minutes. Pour over veal and vegetables. Add canned tomatoes with juices, 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped basil and lemon peel strips to pot. Add enough beef broth to cover veal. Bring mixture to boil. Cover pot tightly with aluminum foil, then lid. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until veal is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cool, cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium-low heat before continuing.)
Transfer veal to platter; cover to keep warm. Boil sauce until slightly thickened and reduced to 4 cups, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Mix grated lemon peel, remaining 1 teaspoon garlic and 2 tablespoons parsley in small bowl. Pour sauce over veal. Sprinkle with lemon peel mixture.

Importance Cryolipolysis is the noninvasive reduction of fat with localized cutaneous cooling. Since initial introduction, over 650 000 cryolipolysis treatment cycles have been performed worldwide. We present a previously unreported, rare adverse effect following cryolipolysis: paradoxical adipose hyperplasia.
Observations A man in his 40s underwent a single cycle of cryolipolysis to his abdomen. Three months following his treatment, a gradual enlargement of the treatment area was noted. This enlargement was a large, well-demarcated subcutaneous mass, slightly tender to palpation. Imaging studies revealed accumulation of adipose tissue with normal signal intensity within the treatment area.
Conclusions and Relevance Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia is a rare, previously unreported adverse effect of cryolipolysis with an incidence of 0.0051%. No single unifying risk factor has been identified. The phenomenon seems to be more common in male patients undergoing cryolipolysis. At this time, there is no evidence of spontaneous resolution. Further studies are needed to characterize the pathogenesis and histologic findings of this rare adverse event.
There is a sharply demarcated, rectangular enlargement around the umbilicus corresponding to the treatment zone. This soft-tissue protrusion was soft, mobile, and slightly tender to palpation. The overlying skin was unremarkable.
Magnetic resonance imaging reveals increased adipose tissue with normal signal intensity. The fat hyperplasia is greatest on the periphery of the treatment zone.
A, Histologic image from an abdominoplasty specimen of paradoxical adipose hyperplasia tissue, demonstrating thickened fibrous septae with increased vascularity (hematoxylin-eosin, original magnification ×2.50). B, Higher magnification revealed an increased vascular network, characterized by capillaries and venules (black arrowheads) (hematoxylin-eosin, original magnification ×10).

Glendale suspended negotiations with the Barrett-Jackson Classic Car Auction last week — just days before the event's president presented a list of big-ticket demands to Scottsdale.
Glendale's new sportsentertainment-shopping complex was considered by many to be the most likely future venue for the lucrative tourism draw, which is outgrowing its longtime annual stage at West-World of Scottsdale, the city's equestrian and special events park.
Barrett-Jackson spokesman Jason Rose confirmed Tuesday that Glendale and Barrett-Jackson president Craig Jackson stopped talking. But Rose said that is not what spurred Jackson to deliver the ultimatum to Scottsdale last week.
"Craig's heart has always been in Scottsdale," Rose said. "He's represented that from day one. He was forced to look at other options."
Glendale Mayor Elaine Scruggs would not say what sticky issues may have killed a deal for the West Valley city.
"We made our best and final offer based on what we understood (Jackson) wanted to accomplish," Scruggs said. "Either there was a deal there or not."
Glendale City Attorney Craig Tindall said it was not one particular issue that kept the parties from an agreement.
"We'd like Barrett-Jackson in Glendale, but it has to be the right deal for our citizens," Tindall said.
Rose said Barrett-Jackson is now concentrating its efforts on Scottsdale, with negotiations to begin in earnest Thursday. But he said if Scottsdale can't meet the show's needs, or if a crucial land purchase isn't concluded in September, "all options are still there, until a long-term agreement is signed."
Rose said several other municipalities, including the Gila River Indian Community and Las Vegas, want the show. And Glendale's snubbed offer could get a second look.
Scottsdale may not be an easy sell either, with questions remaining about what role equestrians will play in West-World's future.
A flurry of activity began June 23 when Jackson sent Scottsdale City Manager Jan Dolan a letter demanding that negotiations begin immediately on major improvements to the equestrian center or the auction will move.
Jackson wants the city to purchase 52 acres of state land adjacent to WestWorld for parking, build a 315-foot-wide air conditioned tent and 220,000-square-foot multiuse center and an off-ramp from Loop 101 that runs directly into the venue.
Late Monday night, Jackson and Dolan released a joint statement announcing that both sides agreed to negotiate with a three-month deadline on striking an agreement. That deadline coincides with a planned state land sale crucial to the deal.
Rex Wager, publisher of the monthly equestrian newspaper Bridle & Bit, said debate over the auction stirred by Jackson's recent demands has brought needed attention and money to WestWorld.
"So far, what's been good for Craig Jackson has been good for the horse people," Wagner said.
But Councilwoman Betty Drake said the auction might threaten horse-related events. In fact, one of Jackson's demands is for exclusive use of WestWorld during a seven to 10-day period in January. For several years, Barrett-Jackson has shared the venue with a horse show.
Some of the items Jackson wants are already included in a $56 million package of West-World improvements that went before the City Council Tuesday night , drawn up as part of the city's efforts to keep Barrett-Jackson. Among them is a $30 million multiuse center and the land purchase, for which the city has budgeted $18 million.
In 2001, the city hired Brad Gessner to shore up the center's finances and book more events.
He has accomplished both, but equestrians argue it has been at the expense of horse events, which have grown in number but shrunk as an overall percentage of WestWorld's business. City Auditor Cheryl Barcala said her office is about to launch a review of WestWorld to determine if Scottsdale has developed the center appropriately, according to federal government restrictions.
The city leases WestWorld land from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. Under a July 1982 contract, Scottsdale committed to operate the space as a public park for horse riders.
Since then, ownership and control of WestWorld, originally titled Scottsdale Horseman's Park, has changed hands many times. The struggle has consistently centered on whether the center should be used for general-interest events or simply as a place to ride horses and hold equestrian shows.

Magnetic Force and Launch
Name: Sean Status: student Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
I have a question involving magnets and force. I could not find the answer anywhere and do not quite know if I can use logic to answer. I have two neodymium magnets and each magnet has the ability to pick up and object 10 pounds. So if you used both together it could pick up an object 20 pounds. Now if I placed one of them on a table and then forced the other on top so they would repel and released it, the one on top would shoot off. My question is that when I release it will it fly off as a result of 20 pounds pushing it up?
You have a number of intertwined things going on in your "thought" experiment. I am not knocking "thought experiments" even Einstein himself used them magnificently in his many contributions to physics. I am sure I do not cover them all, but here are some of the "conditions" and possibilities.
Assume the two magnets are ellipsoids of revolution, magnetized along the "long" axes, constrained in a cylindrical tube with N/N or S/S poles. The repulsive force between the two magnets will be complicated, but can be solved "in principle". The separation between the two magnets will be a balance of the repulsion of the N/N or S/S repulsive poles and the force of gravity. In the absence of any gravity the two magnets would fly apart indefinitely (more or less). In the presence of gravity, acting exclusively along the axis of symmetry between the two magnets, the two magnets will come to rest when the repulsion between them is balanced by the force of gravity. This is a much simpler configuration than you suggested of having the two magnets flat on a table -- in which case the two magnets will spin around until they align N/S and S/N. Thinking "out loud", if you could measure the distance between the repulsive N/N or S/S poles accurately, I am thinking of interference fringes of a laser pointer for example, it might be possible to relate that distance to the local force of gravity, which of course changes from place to place on the surface of the Earth. Or a similar arrangement might be used to measure the local magnetic field of the Earth. Your question raises a lot of interesting issues.

I'm thinking about getting an AV for my desk, I have a long, narrow stand that I keep all my photos on and it is perfect for an AV because it is a foot or so under the fluorescent lights at my desk. Two questions:
- how fast do AVs grow, if I get a starter size standard in a 2-in pot how long will it stay in that pot? A few months? A year? I was thinking of doing this (for some reason I seem to like standard flowers more, they seem more floofy and showy or something) and then bringing it home when it gets big and starting overer with another but I can't have tons of AVs. - what do you do about lighting while you're gone over the weekend? I can move mine easily to a table that is by a southern facing window but I could see myself forget every once in a while and I'm curious to others solutions. |
Follow-Up Postings:
AVs grow at different rates, but a 2" pot wouldn't last very long - weeks to a couple of months or so. A common practice is for pots to be 1/3 of the plant's diameter. A regular standard at 12" would need a 4" pot. If you don't have 12" of growing space you can keep the plant trimmed to a smaller size, for example 9" in a 3" pot. That way you (in theory - practice is altogether different!) wouldn't be bringing the work one home and buying more. If you have a computerized calendar program at work or in your personal email service you could set up a recurring reminder to move the plant to the table every Friday afternoon. However, even if you forgot, a dark weekend every now and then wouldn't kill the plant. Another idea is to get a plant light as shown in the link below, set up a timer, and never worry about moving the plant. Good luck - flowers can be a great work de-stressor! |
