No heat at times Glenn B. • San Jose, CA • March 12, 2014 My Repair & Advice Replaced the coils on the gas valve Was this review helpful to you?
My dryer would turn on, but wouldn't dry the clothes. Amy V. • Junction, TX • March 13, 2014 Appliance: Frigidaire Frigidaire/dryer FER341AC0 My Repair & Advice I originally thought it might be the element, so I took the dryer apart to check it out. The dryer was full of lint, in every cranny and nook. I removed as much as I could with a small brush and vacuum cleaner, as carefully as I could, so as not to damage any internal parts. The element was in tact. I fan on the blower appeared to have fallen off. I tried to re-install it, but the inner hole had been stripped and that was impossible. I order the blower housing assembly, watched the tutorial, and replaced it with minimum difficulty. I had some help from my 6 and 8 year old sons to re-install the drum (hold it up and steady to line up and re-screw it to the back), but the rest was a breeze! As a single mother of four, it is beneficial to research and repair for ourselves. We all learned something new and gained experience. I am very grateful for the instructional videos and the ability to research online. Appliance Parts Pros's website is easy to navigate and I have always been pleased with the speed of delivery. Grateful in Texas! Was this review helpful to you?
Ge dryer was giving e9e error (inconsistent voltage) sometimes not heating and sometimes overheating James P. • Miramar, FL • September 19, 2014 Appliance: Model GE DSXH47EG0WW. My Repair & Advice Mains voltage OL. Thermistor was supposed to read 50kOhms +/- 10% but read 35kOhms. New thermistor had same 35kOhms. By the way, bought the Frigidaire thermistor rather than the GE one - half the price - same component. Replaced thermistor - but same problem. Checked control board - found that there were micro-cracks around the joints of the temperature controlling pot. Resoldered. Now dryer works fine. Was this review helpful to you?
Our dryer didn't heat Larry L. • Poway, CA • November 10, 2014 Appliance: Frigidaire Dryer-Frig Gallery GLGQ332AS1 My Repair & Advice Being a complete DIY I hate to call some unknown person into my home knowing that just to get them there will cost me more than I will spend for parts that I don't need.After all, they are trying to make a living and by selling me parts that I don't need will increase their profits. I've dealt with APP before and was impressed by their site because I could find both mechanical and electrical drawings for almost everything I have. I looked up my dryer, decided what was probably the problem, added all the parts that I felt were probably OK and gave them a call. The customer rep, bless her heart was absolutely fantastic! She was really on the ball and made ordering all the parts I needed a breeze. A week later, when my parts arrived,( I went with the standard shipping), I installed everything, cleaned the dryer of all the lint I could vacuum out, crossed my fingers and pushed the start button. Son-of-a gun, the dryer works like new! I fixed the darned thing for less than $100 and now am a hero with my wife. Life doesn't get better than that. Was this review helpful to you?
Loud screeching metal on metal noise from dryer not always constant but pretty much most of the time Greg D. • Manhattan, MT • September 19, 2014 Appliance: Frigidaire Frigidaire/laundry Center FEZ831AS2 My Repair & Advice Followed the advice from appliancepartspros.com and ordered the upper and lower felt seals and the plastic drum glide. I thought i was going to be several hundred dollars deep for the repair but they were right! The upper felt seal had been worn down....a few minutes time to apply the glue and set and like magic the dryer was fixed! i also replaced the rear bearing kit anyways since I already had the dryer apart and it wasnt that expensive. Great sound advice from this team and very helpful videos!!!! Was this review helpful to you?

Cass McCombs "Big Wheel" (Official Video)
Here is a look at the official video for "Big Wheel" from Cass McCombs' latest album Big Wheel and Others. He is joined on this release by numerous musicians including Mike Gordon, Joe Russo and many others. We spoke with McCombs this past fall about the record and he revealed, "I am a big Phish fan—I had a subscription to Relix in the early '90s. I'm incredibly indebted to Mike Gordon for being on my record. He's such an amazing player. I mean, God, he's so unique. I've never played with someone who plays like that. He's one of the best—not just bass players, but musicians—I've ever been around. He was game for the chaos. He didn't flinch."
Loved him ever since he was on that Terrapin Station from the Move Me Brightly Garcia tribute last summer. Awesome collaborations. Excited to hear the rest of the record.

Although thought to help establish parent-child bonding and with breastfeeding, bed sharing can be dangerous. Sharing a bed with your infant will raise the risks of suffocation, S.I.D.S. (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), and other injuries or accidents. The risk of co-sleeping outweigh the benefits. Learn more information.

On the Steelers: Loss at Cleveland in '09 bitter
On the Steelers: Loss at Cleveland in '09 bitter
Monday, October 11, 2010 By Ed Bouchette, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/10284/1094302-66.stm The Browns sacked Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger eight times in last year's game in Cleveland. The NFL provided the Steelers a break even as its commissioner suspended quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for the first four games of the season. The league at least tossed the Steelers a bone by allowing Roethlisberger two weeks to practice before playing his first game, and by making sure he had a soft landing by scheduling the Cleveland Browns at Heinz Field for his comeback. It does not get much easier than the Cleveland Browns. The Steelers have won 12 of the past 13 times they have played the Browns, 18 of the previous 20. Under normal circumstances, the Browns would be a dress rehearsal for Roethlisberger in preparation for the next three grueling games on the road at Miami, New Orleans and Cincinnati. Except for one thing. That one loss to the Browns in their past 13 meetings occurred in their most recent one, Dec. 10, on a bitter, cold, windy night in Cleveland. The Browns, 1-11 at the time, upset the Steelers, 13-6, to provide the final blow to their playoff hopes that had hemorrhaged during a five-game losing streak. Thanks to that game (and other losses to some of the worst teams in the league such as Oakland and Kansas City in that five-game skid), the Steelers missed the playoffs. And, thanks to that game, they will look at their contest against the Browns a whole lot differently Sunday at Heinz Field. "That was the fifth straight game we lost. That was like really the bottom of the barrel there," linebacker James Harrison said. "That was a big letdown. We hit the bottom. We didn't think we could get any lower, but we could have. That was like the lowest of the lowest point. All we could do was go up from there." Somehow, the Steelers rebounded to win their final three games to finish 9-7, only to lose a tiebreaker to Baltimore, which earned a wild-card playoff spot. The memory of losing in Cleveland to punctuate that five-game nosedive, however, remains strong for many. "It was pretty bad," Hines Ward said. "Losing to Cleveland is always depressing, not only for this city but the players, too. "The weather was crazy. It was probably the worst weather game I ever played in." It was a game in which Steelers coach Mike Tomlin strongly had suggested he would make lineup changes after a four-game losing streak, although he made none. It also was the second game into Tomlin's threat for the Steelers to "unleash hell in December" only to lose their first two of the month, Oakland at home and then Cleveland. Nothing was worse than that loss to the Browns, who entered with a seven-game losing streak and ranked last in the NFL on offense and defense. It was so bad that Ward said right afterward, "To lose five straight coming off a Super Bowl from last year, it's embarrassing for me. It just hurts, it hurts a lot." Those bitter memories, plus a rested, healthy football team playing in the mild October weather at home should provide all the incentive the Steelers might need to avoid another upset by the Browns. "I think it was a big wake-up call," linebacker James Farrior said. "We all know we can't take any opponent lightly, but going through those games that we lost, it hit home and it really got the point across that no matter what team's out there, when you're out there to play on Sunday any team can beat you." And did. "We're used to winning those types of games," defensive end Brett Keisel said. "It was a close game, it was tough, we hadn't lost at Cleveland in [eight] years." There were no team meetings called after that loss in Cleveland dropped the Steelers to 6-7. No player stood up to make a speech. The coach who saw his public promises fail to materialize stopped making them. After losing to some of the dregs the NFL had to offer, the Steelers won their final three against some of the better teams in the league -- Green Bay, Baltimore and Miami. Those three victories did not save their playoff chances in 2009, but they may have taken a step to saving them this season. "I think it showed a lot of the character of this team, of this organization how we stood together and won the last three considering we were one game out of the playoffs," Ward said. "We win one of those five games, we're in the playoffs. "I think that's fresh on lot of guys' minds, understanding we're supposed to win the games we're supposed to win. That gives us a chance to make the playoffs at the end of the year." Read more: http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/10284...#ixzz11xzR3KZ3 |

Re: On the Steelers: Loss at Cleveland in '09 bitter
I thought this was a completely funny article because of the statistics (18/20 etc.) and some of the comments which while accurate, seem to disrespect the Browns.
Funny but true. We better not lose.

Dry Cell Hydroxy Generator
The term DRY-CELL can be confusing - some people wonder how you can you be using Electrolysis of water to make HHO gas if the unit runs dry. The truth is, Dry Cell HHO and Separator Cells use electrolyte in water just like any other HHO Electrolyzer. However the properties and design of the HHO DRY-CELL and H2 DRY-CELL make them much more efficient Generators. Most common types of HHO Generators submerge the cell into an open bath of electrolyte and water; this is not the case with the Dry Cell design. The dry cell's stainless steel plates are separated by rubber gaskets, and the electrolyte is confined within those gaskets. Only the main body of the plates gets bathed in the solution, and no energy is lost. The edges of the plates - including all of the electrical connections - are outside of the electrolyte bath. Hydrogen and Oxygen gases pass through the upper holes in the plates to the outer sides of the cell. The upper fittings allow the gases to escape the cell.
HHO and H2 are GREEN FUEL and COMBUSTION STIMULANTS. They burn more rapidly than hydrocarbon fuels, have lower activation energy, and incur more molecular collisions than heavier molecules. These characteristics make it possible to use mixtures of hydrogen and oxygen with conventional hydrocarbon fuels such as gasoline and diesel to reduce emissions of unburned hydrocarbons. Transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy by use of mixtures of hydrogen and oxygen in small quantities with conventional fuels offers significant reductions in exhaust emissions. Using HHO or Hydrogen as a combustion stimulant makes it possible for other fuels to meet future requirements for lower exhaust emissions. Mixing HHO or H2 with hydrocarbon fuels provides combustion stimulation by increasing the rate of molecular-cracking processes in which large hydrocarbons are broken into smaller fragments. This is beneficial in increasing the surface-to-volume ratio and consequent exposure to Oxygen for completion of the combustion process. Relatively small amounts of HHO can dramatically increase fuel efficiency / MPG, and reduce atmospheric pollution.
1- One of the most efficient and well-built units on the market.
2- All Generators come in complete kits, including EFIE and PWM.
3- Only 316L stainless steel is used in construction.
4- Generator plates are cut using water-jet for precise dimensions.
5- Plates are conditioned using the Passivation process.
6- All fasteners are made from 304 stainless steel to prevent rust and oxidation.
7- Rubber gaskets are EPDM, cut to precise dimensions, and rated at -40 to +320° F to ensure long lasting performance.
8- Brackets are fitted with rubber grommets for isolation and reduced vibration.
9- Bubblers and Dryers are custom made. Barb fittings are factory welded, eliminating any chance of leaking.
10- Designed for gasoline, diesel, and flex fuel engines.
11- Designed for 12 and 24 volts.
12- If our Generators do not fit your particular application, we will custom design and build one for you.
GES is the only company that has successfully produced H/O Separation Dry Cells for trucks and boats and stationary generators for up to 60 liter engines.
The modular design allows for easy assembly, and can be stacked to achieve desired H2 production levels. Like our HHO generators, Separation cells also have multi-fuel capabilities, and are constructed of the highest quality materials.

Storage Performance A Big Impact On Virtualization
Camberley Bates, managing director of analyst firm Evaluator Group, hosted a panel during the COMDEXvirtual conference on how storage performance impacts business' moves to virtualize their IT infrastructure.
Joining Bates on the panel were Paul Manning, vSpecialist manager at storage vendor EMC; Greg Knieriemen, vice president of marketing at Chi Corp., a Cleveland, Ohio-based solution provider; and Leah Schoeb, senior partner at Evaluator Group.
Bates started the discussion by noting that companies adopt virtualization to leverage and make better use of server resources including processor cores and memory in order to achieve economic savings and improve flexibility. However, she said, storage can quickly become a sticky point in that virtualization effort. "It's rare that IT has not dealt with some type of storage problem while they're bringing in more virtualization," she said.

BILLINGS - From prison to potential freedom, Barry Beach's life has drastically changed in the last year. Now, the judge who released him from prison, pending a supreme court ruling on his case, says Barry Beach can now live on his own.
Judge Wayne Phillips decided this week he trusts Beach to live on his own based on his conduct so far.
Beach spent nearly three decades in prison - for the murder of 17-year old Kim Nees near Poplar.
He was released last December to live with former Yellowstone County Commissioner Ziggy Ziegler.
Beach was quick to tell Q2 Thursday night, that he must follow all other rules of his release and he is still responsible to check in with his attorneys and the Ziegler's each week.
But he also tells Q2, he plans on returning to a normal life, and he's worked hard for his home and his handyman business.
The Montana Supreme Court will now decide if Beach will be granted a new trial.

Feeding An Army: Hell's Kitchen Lounge
Alright Devils Army – here's the first installment of Feeding an Army, a series of posts where "Cowbell" Steve and "Crazy" Jaime (me!) give you the breakdown on the various restaurants located around the Prudential Center area for your pre-game and post-game meals!
Our first adventure began on Saturday, October 8th which was the night of the Devils home opener, when we hit up Hell's Kitchen Lounge for some pre-game festivities. Our group started arriving around 3PM and there was already a decent showing, but by 4PM the place was packed with Devils fans – inside and out! As will always be the case, Hell's Kitchen was not aware of what we were doing, and we received no special treatment whatsoever and paid for our food and drinks out of our own pockets.
But enough about the fans, what about the food? Well, we started off with appetizers of course, Steve ordered the hummus with flat bread (we recommend the extra flat bread option… you'll thank us later!) and I ordered some buffalo wings that were, as you would expect, HOT! These are two of our favorite dishes at Hell's and there is usually not a night that goes by where we don't order them. It's a nice little "hold me over" before your dinner and enough to share for a whole group.
Moving on to dinner, we've both eaten a lot of burgers in our lives, but I always say that Hell's Kitchen has some of the best I've ever tasted. The Brick City Burger is my personal favorite, and how can you go wrong with a half pound of beef, cheese, chorizo, onion rings & their signature meat spackle? It definitely hits home with that "Taste of Newark" feel, but that's just one of their many burgers and sandwiches. In addition to the Brick City burger, they also offer the Guinness Burger with marbled Guinness bacon and cheddar (YUMMY!) and the Taylor Ham & Cheese Burger… talk about the New Jersey attitude! Let's not start the taylor ham versus pork roll debate though (we all know it's TAYLOR HAM)!
Steve decided to choose one of Hell's Kitchen other options and ordered the Chorizo Sandwich, which gives you great big slices of grilled chorizo on a locally baked Portuguese roll along with peppers and onions and a side of fries. You can also substitute sweet potato fries on any of their dishes, which we both have a preference for. You cannot go wrong with any of these choices, as neither of us has ever had a bad burger or sandwich at Hell's Kitchen. In fact, I think that each is better than the previous. I know your mouth is now watering and you're trying to figure out just how fast you can get down there!
Hell's Kitchen offers beer towers and as well as a variety of bottled beer and beer on tap. They also have other alcoholic beverages available, as well as non-alcoholic beverages. Don't forget their specialty drinks either, my two personal favorites being "Lucifer's Lemonade" and "Angels and Demons". Please just remember to drink responsibly!
Hell's Kitchen has an eclectic atmosphere and 1950's era style where Las Vegas meets the traditional pub. On game nights they open up their doors to a couple hundred hockey fans of all ages, but on non-game nights they're a little more adventurous. Check out their website for more details!
Where: 150 Lafayette Street
Distance from The Rock: .3 miles (6 min – walking)
Distance from Newark Penn Station: .3 miles
Recommendation: Make Reservations on Game Nights, Check their schedule for fun on Devils' off-nights.
Don't forget to tell us about YOUR favorite spot: @DevilsGenerals, @CowbellSteve, @cj225devs

I want to purchase one that will live in a container (either indoor year round or on balcony during nice weather). The balcony is partially shaded by the house but does face south and gets direct midday/afternoon sun. Any recommendations on where i should buy it? I plan to use Al's gritty mix for the soil. Any other citrus that will "do better" or "be easier" to grow? Anyone else grow dwarf bananas indoor/outdoor in this type of climate? I plan to read up on the vast amount of info out there but need to order one to get started. I am also planning on purchasing some blueberries and want to combine the orders if possible. |

also, given the choice would you prefer "bush" form or tree form. One place i contacted had both. |

I think you need to find out how tall your lemon might grow, if it is grafted onto dwarf rootstock. And then measure how tall your doorways are. Someday you'll want to move that plant... |

Intention is Cause!
Have you ever in your life felt that you had a so strong intention that you just know that nothing can stop you from achieving or reaching a certain thing?
In the elite organization I worked in during 1999-2004 we received mental training how to achieve this mental state. For me after leaving this organization to start a company and get it successful was like a walk in the park in comparison, really.
Learn how to set up a goal and then want it really badly, make it important. Remove all doubts in your mind that you cannot achieve it. Assume full responsibility for reaching it, it is 100% up to you. Any failure is because of you. Trust and believe yourself. KNOW that you will make it. If you can establish that frame of mind, I tell you, it will be a piece of cake. And never give up.
Here I give some other examples from known people:
Lance Armstrong was in the hospital and on the way to die in cancer. The doctor told him that it will not be sure if he will survive. He response to the doctor was that he is going to win the Tour de France. The doctor was chocked. Lance then recovered from cancer and won Tour de France the next year.
"Without cancer, I never would have won a single Tour de France. Cancer taught me a plan for more purposeful living, and that in turn taught me how to train and to win more purposefully. It taught me that pain has a reason, and that sometimes the experience of losing things–whether health or a car or an old sense of self–has its own value in the scheme of life. Pain and loss are great enhancers." – Lance Armstrong
Nelson Mandela was fighting to achieve democracy in Africa. He was arrested in 1962 for his opposition to the white government (and some other things). At the end of his statement in the trial he writes:
"During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." – Nelson Mandela (source)
He was sentenced to life imprisonment in some of the worst prisons and spent 27 years of his life there. Did he give up his goal? No way! After release from prison he got back to work and became the president of South Africa.
Thomas Edison, the great inventor, was in 1914 seeing his phonograph factory in huge fire. This was at a time when demand for the product was soaring. The fire wiped out the most profitable part of TAE, Inc. (Thomas A. Edison, Inc.), yet that very night while the buildings still smoldered he remarked to a report: "Although I am 67 years old, I will start all over again tomorrow." Reviewing the situation in the morning with his staff he told his general manager: "We'll build up bigger and better than ever. Why should I be downhearted.". (Source)
You don't think your goal is that important? Why not? Make it important. Involve your friends by telling them for example that if you reach your goal you will all do something nice together. Make it fun, strive for your goal in enthusiasm. Having and striving for a goal is what I call living. Make it exciting, an adventure.
What you think and believe makes ALL the difference.
"He is able who think he is able" – Gautama Buddha
"If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally astound ourselves." – Thomas A. Edison
"Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking." – William B. Sprague
I will leave you with a clip from the training from Rocky 2:

Dispatch from Jen Abroad
I have added a few pics down below from my trip. Jet-lagged for sure, but being here with my older daughter, Mariah, and son-in-law, Nick, is a wonderful treat. As my mind clears I will make notes on the bread and bakery items I encounter. We are already off to a wonderful start in that regard.
I really appreciate the talents of the MWIB Crew back home who are making it possible to keep the bakery open while I am gone–Wonderful Bakery Chefs!
While I am gone here are some contact numbers.

Dispatch from Susannah & Kelsey, the MWIB Crew
As Jen is celebrating the longest day of the year in Bath, we (Susannah and Kelsey) are already talking about next week's offerings, including our respective techniques for making a perfect, pillowy ciabatta. A friendship forged while studying abroad in Paris translates well to this beautiful, sunny bakeshop in Southern Appalachia! Next week, we'll merge the two worlds by making classic French croissants with local Carolina Ground flour.

- Ciabatta– $5/loaf. Pillowy and crusty ciabatta bread is great dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar, or makes a super sandwich.
- Croissants (Chocolate and Plain)– $6 for 2 plain or $7 for 2 chocolate. Our flaky hand laminated (from scratch!) croissants are made with buckwheat and wheat flours and european cultured butter.
- Neil's Granola– $7/20 oz. bag. Maple-sweetened oats with dried fruit, walnuts, almonds and a dash of cinnamon.
- Pizza Dough To-Go– $6/2 lbs. A partial wheat dough that is ready for an easy and delicious weekend pizza party. Enough for several large pizzas or 8+ individual. Freeze what you do not use. Directions included.

text: Well, isn't this a great surprise to help wind down the long weekend. Borgore and his Buygore Allstars, which feature Kennedy Jones, Protohype, Getter, At Dawn We Rage, Ookay, Luke & Skywalker, and others, have dropped volume 2 of the Buygore Allstars compilation series. We've already heard the "Hannah Montana" remix, as well as the "Mr. Postman" remix, but we've got a grip of other reworks on here, ranging from "Jumper" and Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie" to "Welcome to the Jungle." If you like your dance music filthy and full of bass, this is yours. Turn all the way up.

This page is one of my favorites when it comes to the art. It's rare to get to devote half of a page to a panel, even more rare to have it filled with a character in a close up. It allows me to really cut loose with the ink and brush so the lines show off the strength of the medium.
And here' something new! This is my first try at the scary stuff. Casey Wolfe is the producer of the movie version of my book Ghostopolis which got set up at Disney with Hugh Jackman, he started a kind of horror radio-show! Put on your ear phones, and get creeped out. I wrote this one, so give it a try and leave your comments on that website. Tell your friends about BENEATH THE BASEMENT if you dig it!

I like to create garden scenes that transport one to another world, or to pretend one is in a tropical resort somewhere. This garden I designed had the benefit of some large mature plants as backdrop before the patio and fountain were installed. This home as an interesting history, as it was once a speakeasy during the prohibition years, and this garden area was the original front entry and driveway to the house. Any guesses as to where the garden is located? |

Oakland, CA? |
Uh, you realize your tag for the picture includes the location? |
Okay San Francisco. It's fun to grow "exotic" plants though. San Francisco's twin in South America is Chile, not Bahia, you naughty boy, and a lot of stuff like fuschias, alstroemeria and sternbergia will do very well there. - Ian. |
Ian, maybe climate wise you are correct about Chile and San Francisco having more similarities, but look at the things Bahia and San Francisco share: on a peninsula with a huge bay and ocean frontage, each pointed towards their appropriate polar extreme. Very hilly topography with lots of old buildings in certain neighborhoods,(while Salvador's old is several times older than our oldest adobe or Victorian), a reputation as a place for artists, musicians, eccentrics of all flavors to be accepted and appreciated. A reputation as a desired place to live and/or vacation by the rest of the country. Street parties envied throughout the rest of the world, although the San Francisco festivities of our annual Bay to Breakers city-wide foot race, our local Carnival and Halloween certainly pale in comparison to Festas do Largo and Carnaval in Salvador da Bahia de Todos os Santos. San Francisco is also an ethnic mixing pot as is Salvador, just the percentages and mixes are a bit different in both. So I'll continue in my firm belief that Salvador and San Francisco are sister cities in a fun-house mirror sort of way, and we have little in common culturally with buttoned up cultures such as Chile and Santiago, which geographically and climatically is a better matchup. But this comparison doesn't appeal to my saudades pro Bahia! |
yes it does take you to some spot in a tropical clime.. beautiful Bahia.... As I always see garden designers in other climates often make tropical gardens more tropical than real ones...at least when the tropics has a long dry season like down here. It is our interpretation of what the tropics is that we create. love it! |

High-Speed Lines
Madrid – Zaragoza - Barcelona - French Border Line
The Madrid-Zaragoza-Barcelona-French Border High-Speed Line, 804 kilometres long, is one of the main corridors of communication between Spain and Europe.
In 2008, the line connected the cities of Madrid and Barcelona. The Figueres-Perpignan section went into service since December 2010. In January 2013, the line was completed when the section between Barcelona and Figueres went into service.
In their first five years of operation, from 2008 to 2013, Renfe's Madrid-Zaragoza-Barcelona services have recorded a total of 27.2 million customers. Of these, almost 16 million correspond to the connections between Catalonia and Madrid.
This infrastructure allows high-speed connections between the four provincial capitals of Catalonia, and from these to the rest of Spain, thus contributing to our country's territorial structure. The line is the backbone of the North-east Corridor, included in priority axis 3 for transport for the European Commission. It also represents a substantial part of the Mediterranean Rail Corridor, an infrastructure which, when constructed, will boost development along the length of the coast from Catalonia to Andalusia.
This high-speed line favours passenger transport between the Iberian Peninsula and the rest of Europe. It links together the provincial capitals of Catalonia via one of the most advanced transport systems on the international stage, while also connecting them with Madrid, Zaragoza, other cities Spanish and France (since April 2013), and, once the direct high-speed passenger connection between Barcelona and Paris is in operation, with the rest of Europe.
This infrastructure is cohesive for the whole country and fuels its economic growth.
It links Spain's two most densely populated urban areas, Madrid and Barcelona, as well as Zaragoza and other cities such as Guadalajara, Calatayud, Zaragoza, Lleida, Tarragona, Girona and Figueres.
The benefits extend to other cities through the connections shown below.
Madrid with the North-Northeast corridors (Valladolid HSL), the East corridor (Valencia HSL) and the South corridor (Seville and Malaga HSL). With the inauguration of the complete line, there is now a corridor of over 1,200 km, from Figueres to Malaga, joining the northeastern and southern tips of Spain.
Zaragoza with the high-speed, international gauge Zaragoza-Huesca line.
Tarragona with the Mediterranean Corridor.
Further, thanks to the gauge change facilities in Plasencia de Jalón, the advantages extend to La Rioja and Navarre.
Another exclusive feature of this line is the design for mixed passenger and freight traffic (between the Port of Barcelona and the connection with France). This means there is a possibility of establishing new services with arrival or departure at intermodal centres in France and other European countries.
Moreover, this modern infrastructure brings a series of benefits, including: facilitating citizen mobility by reducing journey times, offering high standards of safety, quality, comfort, reliability and environmental and socioeconomic sustainability through full integration into the environment.
It runs over 804 kilometres from Madrid to Figueres.
The line's layout allows trains to run at speeds of up to 350 km/h on almost 86% of the route, although Renfe Operadora operates commercially at a maximum speed of 310 km/h, after entry into service of ERTMS Level 2 in 2011.
The construction design used was highly demanding so as to allow the development of maximum speeds of 350 km/h on commercial services and to guarantee interoperability in line with European regulations.
- International gauge, compatible signalling system, standard electrification
- Minimum 7000 m radius bends on the general track
- Ramps under 2.5%
- Maximum 140 mm slope
- Junctions suitable for 350 km/h
The line has by-passes in Zaragoza, Lleida and Figueres so as not to affect route times for trains not stopping at said cities.
In addition, the Barcelona Port-Figueres section was designed for passenger and some freight traffic.
Safety Systems
- A train protection system monitoring safe operation in line with the information received from the signal boxes and with the conditions on the line track (ERTMS/ETCS system levels 1 and 2 and ASFA)
- High-capacity, open multi-service fibre optic telecommunications network providing support for the other systems.
- Monitoring and safety system: fallen objects detection, hot boxes, weather stations, video surveillance, intruder detection, etc.
- Central Regulation System aimed at optimising global line operation.
The line also has a passenger information system providing real time information (next train, estimated arrival/stopping/departure time, platform, delay times, etc.)
The origins date back to the 1980s. On 8th December 1988, the Cabinet approved the Madrid-Barcelona high-speed line project included in the Railway Transport Plan (PTF) approved a year earlier. The project did not include a line for speeds of 300 km/h but the doubling of track across the existing lines with new branches throughout. Finally, an independent UIC gauge infrastructure was decided on with high-speed parameters.
Twenty years were needed to complete a section crossing especially complicated areas such as the exit from Madrid, the Lleida-Martorell section and entry into Barcelona.
The first sections were put out to tender in 1993 and work started in 1995. The 443 kilometre Madrid-Zaragoza-Lleida section had an investment of 4.5 billion euro and came into service in October 2003 using Altaria and AVE Serie 100 trains from the Madrid-Seville line. At first, speeds of only 200 km/h were reached while a new signalling system - ERTMS level 1 -was being installed, allowing speeds to be increased gradually. In this way, in 2006, with the new system installed for the first time in Spain, AVE trains reached maximum speeds initially of 250 km/h, then 280 km/h and finally 300 km/h in May 2007. This considerably reduced journey times.
The stations on this initial section, as well as the departure terminus in Madrid-Puerta de Atocha, were Guadalajara-Yebes (new), Calatayud (remodelled and extended), Zaragoza-Delicias (new) and Lleida-Pirineus (remodelled).
The first commercial service between Madrid and Barcelona ran in May 2006 with a variable gauge CAF Alvia train (120 series) which used a gauge changer located in Puigvert, Lleida, to continue the direct journey to Barcelona on the conventional track.
After an investment of 1.613 billion euros in December 2006, a further 108 kilometres on the line running from Lleida to Camp de Tarragona and the branch to Lleida were opened. The opening of this stretch was the first high-speed connection between Catalan provincial capitals.
Fourteen months later, in February 2008, the Tarragona-Barcelona section, covering 98 kilometres and with an investment of 2,653 billion Euros, was put into service, thus providing a high-speed connection between Spain's two biggest cities.
After a total investment of nearly 9 billion euro, the Madrid-Barcelona high-speed connection opened with a two-way journey by 103 series trains covering the distance in 2 hours 38 minutes.
The 131 kilometre Barcelona–Figueres section has involved investment of over 3,700 million Euros, not including funds assigned to works to adapt and build the stations of Barcelona Sants, Girona and Figueres Vilafant.
The full opening of this stretch took place on 8th January 2013, in a ceremony presided over by HRH the Prince of Asturias.
At first, more than half the length of the entire section (75 km) was used by freight trains running on two stretches, one between Mollet and Girona Mercancias and another in Figueres. Thus, the first journey of a UIC-gauge freight train on a high-speed line in Spain took place on 21st December 2010. The service is possible thanks to a combination of international gauge infrastructures with conventional network infrastructures where a third rail track has been installed.
Two of the standout infrastructures to build between Barcelona and Figueres are the urban tunnels in Barcelona and Girona. Digging with tunnel boring machines ended in July 2010. Other outstanding infrastructures on the section include La Sagrera station (under construction), the second Montmeló urban tunnel and the Montcada i Reixac tunnel – also dug with a tunnel boring machine.
The Madrid-Barcelona line links with the international section at a new station – Figueres-Vilafant. This station is the transfer point for the Barcelona-Paris railway connection from December 2010.
The corridor's end point, and where its links with the European high-speed networks, is the Figueres-Perpignan international section, in service since December 2010. This section is suitable for passenger and freight traffic. It was constructed by a Franco-Spanish consortium under concession, with an investment of 1,100 million Euros. It is 44.4 kilometres long, 19.8 of which are in Spain and 24.6 in France. The Pyrenees border has been by-passed with the 8.2 kilometre Perthus tunnel.

The whimsical Lesia Paramonova Les Collection enchants mortals. The collection was created by Russian designer Lesia Paramonova, who is trying to create a brand that, at its core, deals with the unification of humans and nature. Paramonova entitled this collection 'Les,' using the Russian word for forest, placing nature at the center of pieces.
The floral-filled outfits are free-spirited, fun and form-fitting. The extremely feminine collection also uses looser transparent material atop its skinny cuts. The material appears to be mist that often cloaks a forest with mystery and magic. This addition increases the whimsy of the collection. It is as if any fashionistas found wearing the clothing are secretly forest fairies.
The Lesia Paramonova Les Collection inspires the creative creature within us all.

i'm confused about cat behavior. They say that cats don't live in groups but we've all heard about cat colonies.
How can people have 50 cats or so? Don't they have a lot of problems with that? Marking and timidity? Dogs are pack animals and live in groups but is that the same thing as cat colonies/ I feel that i can have a large group of dogs but not so with cats. For example, you never (or rarely) hear of a dog that hides constantly due to timidity but that's pretty common in cats. |

Cats can live in packs. My feral barn cat came from a local rescue .. they trapped her and a few other ferals that were living in what they called a feral cat colony, of 50 or more cats. They were unable to tame her or socialize her, so they asked for barn owners who would care for a feral cat after she was fixed and given her shots. She always finds a companion cat, there are many farms around with plenty of barn cats. So I am usually feeding more than one barn cat at a time, but this is her home, others come and go. |
Cats live in groups more than in packs, such as dogs. They often have a prefered associate, that is a cat they get along with. As a person with six cats they change assocates quite often. Two cats will love each other groom and sleep together one day and fight to the abcess the next. That is where you wind up with the marking, it is making a point to the kitties. |
It all depends on the cats. Jaguars live mostly solitary lives while lions live in prides. Same with feral and domestic cats. |

Years ago, there was a wonderful special on PBS about cats, & they came up with the same question. "Back then", people thought domestic cats were solitary because the only ones that had bene studied were housepets. so some bright researcher decided to study barn cats/farm cats. It turns out that they do live in social groups, with their own system of greetings & ways of showing affection & so forth. If anyone remembers the name of the special, & if PBS has it online, I'd recommend it. seems like the title had "Tiger" in it, as in "Clan of the Tiger" or some such. |
Absolutely, cats form friendships and have dislikes. In my multicat household, I observe it quite often: a cat would love to sleep one particular cat or cats, but does not want anything to do with some other cat... Some will busk in the sun together and groom each other - they certainly have their preferences...most insist on laying in the vicinity of one another... When waiting for food, Tiger boy is always rubbing his head on either Pixel or Alvin... Little foster kids hanging out in a "pack"
Couch is always a good place to hang out all together...
Very cute kitties! I have two, and they are inseparable. |

Them is some cuties, olya! |
I have several clients who have MANY cats, all of whom get along just fine. OTOH, I know many cats who have been the only cat for a long time and do not adjust to newcomers at all. Just like dogs, people, and every other species, each individual is different. I have a Lab who loves people but hates other dogs; he tolerates my other 4 as long as they don't get too close to him. So you never know... |
Thanks all. I am down to 5 cats now and boy, did i see a difference in marking behavior. One of my cats would defecate a lot in a bedroom i have. Now this does not happen. With cats, it seems it's best to have just a few. (imho) |
Seems to me cats form more of a family unit, rather than a pack. Might be just semantics, but to me the word pack means a structured social group, with a definate single leader, underlings, and other subordinate members.The members are also not alof the same family necessariyl. Cats, usually do not have that singularity, but rather a looser knit group with several dominant individuals. |

Chloés Fall 2010 gold embroidered, part mariachi-part cowboy denim pants were our inspiration for this weeks DIY. Such elaborate embroidering is beyond our skill set, so we figured stenciling a beautiful pattern using gold fabric paint would be a more feasible interpretation. Who knew paper doilies made the perfect stencil? Youll need doilies of different sizes and patterns, a paint sponge or paintbrush, Krylon Easy Tack Spray Adhesive, Lumiere Fabric Paint in Bright Gold, and a pair of jeans. Lightly spray the doilies with the adhesive and press down firmly on the jeans. We overlapped the doilies and stopped at three but there really isnt a right or wrong way to creating your own pattern. Gently dab paint into the negative spaces of the doily, making sure not to overload the paintbrush. Apply at least another coat of paint, let dry and peel back the doilies to reveal the pattern.

The New York Times, which to the amazement of many has printed scarcely a word about the catastrophic effects of the law it still defends, now runs a Fashion & Style story applauding what it identifies as a trend among affluent urban parents toward buying used products for their kids rather than always insisting on new (Sarah Wildman, "For Firstborns, Secondhand Fits the Bill"). But it never mentions the reason why those parents will find the selection of kids' goods around the nation's thrift shops to be much, much sparser than it was a year ago.
Even as it spots this supposed trend, the paper does not quote anyone who works in an actual secondhand business; it does mention picking up used stuff free from "friends' garages" and buying on Craigslist, where it's easy to find sellers who don't know (or at least claim not to know) that the law covers them too. You have to wonder what's going on with the editors at this newspaper. Are they under some sort of orders not to mention CPSIA and its effects? Or do they just not know any better? (More: ShopFloor).

Readers of this site may have known already, but the Kansas City Star spells it out for its readers: "the notoriously broad and confusing federal Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act applies to you and your front yard." As the CPSC's 27-page booklet for resellers (PDF) warns, "Ignorance of the law is no excuse." Which is especially problematic since even if you do study up on it, as Adele Meyer, executive director of the National Association of Resale and Thrift Shops, reminds us, "the way it was written, it's almost impossible to abide by this law."

Plenty of news in recent days:
We are compelled to deny the petition because the language of the statute does not give us the flexibility to do otherwise, even though our staff does not believe that lead exposure from using bicycles and related products presents a risk that they would recommend the Commission regulate. The risk assessment methods traditionally used by the Commission in evaluating exposure to lead are no longer available to us under the CPSIA.
Nevertheless, we also recognize, as we did when presented with a similar petition filed by the All Terrain Vehicle industry, that safety requires the presence of some lead in the metal used in the product to insure structural integrity. I am also mindful of the staff's findings that the contact children may have with the parts of the products that contain lead is not extensive and would not present a risk as we have traditionally understood the term—that is, would not increase blood lead levels in any measurable way. Presented with the dilemma of inflexibility in the law vs the need for regulatory action that recognizes safety and good sense considerations, we are opting to stay enforcement.
This course of action is becoming all too frequent for the CPSC. It is needed to avoid market disruptions and to protect consumers. However, it is not the optimal way to implement a statute.
McGovern [Rep. James McGovern, D-Mass.] said the federal agency is not being onerous, and businesses should work with it to resolve their worries.
In a written statement, Sen. John Kerry's office said the measure is meant to keep dangerous products off the shelves, and it needs a chance to work before it is changed.

Last Wednesday's CPSIA rally at the Capitol drew an overflow crowd of hundreds, with thousands more reportedly watching from around the world via webcast. Many speakers had powerful stories to tell, and cameras from CNN and ABC were on hand to record them; AP mentioned the event in covering the dirtbike-ban story. There is, as you might imagine, no way to upstage a six-year-old motocross champion who declares from the podium, "I promise I won't eat my dirt bike".
A few things I learned by attending:
Speaking of which, Consumers Union, publisher of Consumers Reports, confirmed once again that it falls into the "hostile" and not merely "unreflective/ uninformed" category with this deplorable hatchet job, which provoked a slew of angry, substantive comments; see also blog posts including those of Carol Baicker-McKee and Sheeshamunga.

Major story by Jon Hamilton on yesterday's NPR "Morning Edition": "A new federal ban on chemical compounds used in rubber duckies and other toys isn't necessary, say the government scientists who studied the problem." "Now they tell us," writes Carter Wood. More from Jonathan Adler @ Volokh and commenters.
Although most coverage of the CPSIA debacle (this site's included) has focused on the lead rules, the phthalates ban (phthalates are an ingredient often used to make plastic soft and bendable) is also extraordinarily burdensome, for a number of reasons: 1) as readers may recall, a successful lawsuit by the Natural Resources Defense Council and others forced the last-minute retroactive banning of already-existing playthings and child care items, costing business billions in inventory and other losses; 2) vast numbers of vintage dolls, board games and other existing playthings are noncompliant, which means they cannot legally be resold even at garage sales, let alone thrift or consignment shops, and are marked for landfills instead; 3) obligatory lab testing to prove the non-presence of phthalates in newly made items is even more expensive than testing to prove the non-presence of lead. The phthalate ban is also an important contributor to the burden of the law on the apparel industry (the ingredient has often been used in screen printing on t-shirts and similar items) and books ("book-plus" items with play value often have plastic components). AmendTheCPSIA.com has reprinted a letter from Robert Dawson of Good Times Inc., an amusement maker.
Earlier coverage: Feb. 6 (NRDC and allies win court case on retroactivity); Feb. 7 (various points, including Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal's vow that his office will "take whatever steps are necessary [emphasis added] to ensure this phthalate ban is enforced"); Feb. 12 (what ingredients in playthings are going to replace phthalates, and are those ingredients going to be more safe or less?); Mar. 4 (vintage dolls); Mar. 11 (California Senators Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein were particularly identified with pushing the phthalates ban to enactment).
P.S. Environmentalists disputing the NPR coverage: Jennifer & Jeremiah @ ZRecommends, Jennifer Taggart (The Smart Mama) in NPR comments. And Sacramento attorney Anthony Caso has a backgrounder for the Washington Legal Foundation (PDF) with more about the CPSC, the NRDC, and maneuvering on phthalates.

We had no clothes for them, no beds, no presents; nothing was in readiness for them, except our hearts (and even those needed some sprucing up). They came on a Friday. We went shopping on a Saturday. Where did we go shopping? Thrift shops, of course. We had an immediate and urgent need for clothing, toys, and bedding for two new children, and we lived on an enlisted man's salary. It was only two weeks before Christmas. The thrift shop enabled us to fill the gap between our income and our needs.
Now families that rely on thrift stores are in trouble from coast to coast: Salem and Marblehead, Mass. ("Throwing away perfectly good clothing"); Nantucket, Mass. (imagine being a landscaper or laundry person trying to raise a kid on that expensive island); Herkimer, N.Y. ("new motto, 'When in doubt, throw it out'"); Beaver County, Pa.; Imperial, Neb.; Denver, Colo.; San Luis Obispo, Calif. ("I say, 'Just try to pass the toys down through your family or give them to friends,'"); The Garden Island (Kauai, Hawaii)(via CLC and CPSIA). Some background from NARTS (National Association of Resale and Thrift Shops), which is doing a CPSIA Impact Survey of its members.
And so the little Rabbit was put into a sack with the old picture-books and a lot of rubbish, and carried out to the end of the garden behind the fowl-house. That was a fine place to make a bonfire, only the gardener was too busy just then to attend to it. He had the potatoes to dig and the green peas to gather, but next morning he promised to come quite early and burn the whole lot.

Carter Wood at ShopFloor has a very useful compilation of what are probably all the current bills introduced in Congress related to the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act. (More, of course, may follow as the crisis continues.) Of the 10 bills, one is an omnibus appropriation bill, while the other nine (six in the House, three in the Senate) all appear from their descriptions to be aimed at reforming the substance of the law, its timetables and deadlines, or both.
Significantly, there was introduced this week the first bill with a Democratic (i.e. majority) sponsor, a bill by Montana Democratic Senator Jon Tester to overturn the dirtbike ban.
The three bills in the Senate are S. 608, the Tester bill on motorcycles and related vehicles; S. 374, the much-discussed bill by Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) that would have injected common sense into several areas of the law, and which Congress (under pressure from Public Citizen and others) refused to incorporate into the stimulus package; and S. 389, a bill introduced by Sen. Robert Bennett (R-Utah) "to establish a conditional stay of the ban on lead in children's products, and for other purposes."
The six bills in the House are H.R. 1510 and H.R. 1587, introduced by Denny Rehberg (R-Mont.), both relating to cycles/vehicles; H.R. 968, by John Shadegg (R-Ariz.) and H.R. 1465, by Brad Ellsworth (D-Ind.), both of which are described as providing "regulatory relief to small and family-owned businesses"; H.R. 1046, by Adam Putnam (R-Fla.), to "ensure the effective implementation of children's product safety standards under the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008″, and H.R. 1027, by Bill Posey (R-Fla.), to "exempt second-hand sellers of certain products from the lead content and certification requirements".
CORRECTION: I erroneously listed Indiana Congressman Brad Ellsworth above as a Republican, but he is a Democrat; fixed now.

No, discarding 500 once-loved stuffed animals doesn't really amount to much of a story amid scenes of billion-dollar disruptions caused by this law elsewhere around the country. But if you're one of the people who run the Second Fling consignment shop in Goldsboro, N.C., it might still seem kind of sad.

Medieval Hairstyles
Medieval times were more known for what the women didn't show than what
they did. Many times the caps and headdresses of women concealed the
hair completely, though often with only a hint of well-groomed hair
peaking from the edges.
Medieval braiding became the standard for having your hair done. There
was the three-strand braid, the four-strand braid, the twist-and-cross,
and the weaving style. These were the realm of the nobility and the
wives of men of means. Expert hairdressers were required, but after all
was done, most of the artistic features were cowled under caps and head
pieces, almost as if the woman of the middle ages wanted to feel
feminine and attractive, but was too afraid to show it to the outside
world. As a youth, she still had to attract a member of the opposite
sex. But as many well-to-do families were eager to control a daughter's
choice of husband because of its financial benefit to the family,
arranged marriages were common, so the need to display one's feminine
attributes, particularly the hair, was unnecessary.

She explained, "I'm excited for next year when hopefully my record's done and people are hearing my tunes and digging it. I've waited two years to put out a record, so I really want that first thing that I say to be something really important."
She also told Billboard, "I wanna make a sick record."
We can't wait for that!
