It's Thanksgiving week, and a cornucopia of political intrigue demands analysis before we settle into holiday cheer. Salt Lake County politics, including the mayoral race, is becoming rather exciting. Here are some morsels to chew on:
West Valley Mayor Mike Winder has all but announced his candidacy for the county mayor GOP nomination. However, Winder revealed last week that he had submitted a number of news stories to this paper and other publications under a fake name and even provided a fake photo. This indiscretion received widespread coverage in Utah, across the country, and even in Europe. Will this be a problem or a benefit to Winder in his quest for countywide office?
Pignanelli: "Men are so simple and yield so readily to the desires of the moment that he who will trick will always find another who will suffer to be tricked." — Niccolo Machiavelli
After the appropriate mea culpas, West Valley residents and most County Republican delegates are likely to forgive Winder's actions as silly but well-intentioned. His troubles lie elsewhere.
Journalists are a strange lot. You can scream obscenities and even spit at them, but they refuse to be offended because that is your First Amendment right. But when a politician uses a disguise to plant stories that benefit his constituents and thereby enhance his standing, seething hostility is the result.
Winder should be prepared for the journalistic equivalent of an invasive medical procedure into a body cavity. Reporters are examining his various business and political pursuits to uncover other missteps. Any statements he delivers as a candidate or mayor will be subject to severe scrutiny. The media will remind voters, on a regular basis, about this controversy. This will be his burden during the campaign.
Webb: This escapade hurts a lot. To his credit, Winder confessed his duplicity to Deseret News/KSL, apparently suffering a guilty conscience. That's good. We're a forgiving people. But Winder, who has been a good friend of mine for some time, took this fakery way too far. Beyond merely writing under a "pen name," it became brazen dishonesty.
On a personal level, I was concerned about a story a few months ago that appeared on KSL.com about a friend of mine, Chris Hogan, written by Richard Burwash. I thought the story was slanted and unfair, so I sent an e-mail message to KSL complaining about it. Imagine my surprise when I learned along with everyone else that "Burwash" was actually Mayor Mike Winder.
One thing though, this Burwash guy is (was?) a clever writer. Very creative. He might want to try some fiction.
Earlier this summer, Senate Minority Leader Ross Romero announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for county mayor. Romero has been working Democratic delegates since then. Last week, Romero's colleague, Democratic Sen. Ben McAdams, also became a contender for county mayor. How does this interparty squabble impact the race?
Webb: It's great that the Democrats will have a tough intraparty battle, fighting each other and spending money on convention and likely primary fights, instead of saving all their ammo for Republicans. Romero and McAdams are both solid candidates and the Republicans will have to nominate a highly competent, mainstream candidate to beat either of them. This will be a fascinating mayoral race.
Pignanelli: Romero and McAdams are popular Democrats and enjoy strong support from various constituencies. Barring any missteps, this contest will not be resolved until the late June primary — delaying monetary support for the general election. County Republicans can afford such a fight; the Democrats cannot.
The Salt Lake County Council, on a bipartisan vote, recently approved transferring budget responsibilities from the county auditor to the county mayor's office. In retaliation, County Auditor Greg Hawkins is threatening a lawsuit to prevent the change. Is this just typical county machinations or an indication of changes to come?
Pignanelli: County officials were upset with the former auditor, Jeff Hatch, and pushed for this change two years ago. They held off as a courtesy to the newly elected Hawkins. However, the trend of this internal disagreement is in the right direction. The weird county government structure originated in the Paleozoic era needs to be dumped.
Webb: Salt Lake County government has far too many elected officials. Its executive branch is extremely weak because power is divided among several elected people. Executive branch authority should be centralized in the mayor's office. The buck should stop there.
Imagine if, in the federal government, in addition to the president, a half dozen other top positions were independently elected. We could have a Democratic president and a Republican U.S. attorney general or secretary of state. What a mess that would be. The federal government would be even more dysfunctional than it now is.
That's the situation today in county government. The mayor doesn't really have control. We have plenty of checks and balances with separate executive, legislative and judicial branches. We don't need executive power chopped up among a bunch of different officials with different agendas and priorities. So giving budget responsibilities to the mayor is a small step toward modernizing county government.

I used toasted almonds and roasted pumpkin seeds. Had no fresh basil - used some Italian parsley. Also - had some aged hard goat cheese (kind of like goat parmesan) that needed using up. Altogether = Very yummy!
OMG!!!!!!! This is fabulous... I did add extra garlic and only used 1/8th of a cup of water...but otherwise as printed. Amazing.
Don't think about it. Just make this recipe. Your family will think you are a hero.
I made this dish for my husband and my in-laws, and everyone loved it!! I left out the nuts and used penne! It was amazing, and I have made it twice since then!! Love this recipe!
I made this with pistachios instead of almonds. So good that I scraped the sides of the pot with bread to get the leftovers!

Was the cheapest way to get a 12GB disk back in the day I'm waiting on a good deal on a Xeon E3-1230v2 - almost bought this just so I could get the mobo/RAM all setup for the Xeon, but decided to wait. Thanks for the post If my post offended you, please accept the following hug and realize that I wasn't singling you out, I make fun of every stupid post.
I do however wish they'd stop farting around with 1500's and 2500's and just make the 3000 the base graphics for all entry/mid level chips. |
It'll play almost every game we throw at it on 1080p at max settings, dead silent for most of it, and the only time the fans ever turn on are when the gaming gets into some hardcore fps fest, and the barely-even-audible gpu fan turns on for a few seconds to cool things back down. I'm on a couch 15+ feet away, so I can't hear it, but if I was 2-3 feet away and had the sound muted, meh, maybe. Much better economical than some quad or six core processor on power consumption, and better power than some tiny ARM processor... the best of both worlds. I also have those AMD Turion HP Microservers in the bedroom, but looking like their days are numbered with this box taking over their duty just fine.

By Aaron Serge Bueno, Founder and Executive Chairman, November 2014
My vision is quite simple, because it is not mine alone, but one that is shared by every one of our clients.
This vision is not driven by Wall Street, or any other market, but solely by the desires of our clients and their consumers.
I have traveled the world and consumers everywhere tell me the same thing, "Please create beverages that are simple, tasty, healthy and inexpensive." They want a product that simplifies their kitchen, not just another appliance to "clutter it up". It is from these wishes and needs, that we are building the best products on the market.
You may not have heard about SDS, despite the fact that we have received the "Most Innovative Company of the Year" Gold award in the At-Home Carbonation category, from Housewares Executive, the last three years in a row (ahead of Kitchen Aid and SodaStream in 2014). But you will have certainly heard about our products being sold around the world by world famous kitchen appliance brands such as Hamilton Beach's Fizzini (currently in Walmart), SEB-Tefal (in France), Emson (coming soon with our Soda Boss in the USA), Limo-Bar (in the Czech Republic) and Home Bar (in Russia, China etc).
Our legitimacy starts in the At-Home Carbonation Category
Currently At-Home Carbonation companies use a technology that has a few fundamental problems; they use high-pressure CO2 cylinders, which require special handling and must be physically exchanged by the consumer and the appliances are quite complex, as it takes between six to nine steps depending if you drink sparkling water or a soft drink! We found solutions for these problems.
Since 2007, I knew that the CO2 cylinder would eventually be a deal breaker, especially in "soft drink" countries. After years of research and development SDS has now succeeded in introducing a solution that uses appliances with no CO2 cylinders; the technology is in the pods! Some people might say, "Who cares? People will drive fifty miles for a good bottle of wine, or stand in line fifteen minutes for a good cup of coffee." Europeans love sparkling water and might not hesitate to exchange cylinders. But the fact is that for current soda there are better alternatives than CO2 and syrups. I always said that you can have the best technology in the world, the most beautiful appliance, the best price point but if in the end it does not taste great, then what's the point! So yes, it might be an exciting experience to design your own drink, but that gets old fast. Listen to the recent announcements from Soda Stream and you will understand that I was right.
That breakthrough alone would have been enough, but at the same time, (because I have good ears) I knew consumers were looking for a healthier alternative to soft drinks. I heard something recently that I found interesting, "Traditional sodas today are the Marlboros of 30 years ago". The decline is irreversible and I will bet a dollar that thirty years from now, these beverages will be shunned like cigarettes are today. I will not even go into all the damage these types of drinks do to our health. Today's beverage companies will have to re-invent themselves, in fact they have already started.
So we spent years developing the healthiest alternative possible. In addition to our fantastic variety of flavors, our pods are nutraceutical products full of functional benefits covering nine different categories of body support and contain 50% of your daily needs of vitamins and antioxidants. Our products are labeled and endorsed by New York Times Best Selling author and television personality Dr. Ian K Smith, M.D., which gives consumers the confidence that they are buying a healthy product.
So are we the best alternative to both SodaStream and Keurig Cold?
Well, for SodaStream: I have always felt we were completing them rather than competing with them. They are and hopefully will be for a long time a good solution for competing bottled SPARKLING WATER. They allow you to design your own bubbles, whether you prefer Pellegrino or Perrier, and you don't have to carry a bottle. The last Earnings Call from Danny Birnbaum proves me right. They are going back to where they were 10-15 years ago: The Sparkling Water world!
At SDS, we also have these "older technologies", even more advanced having also an assortment of products that use simple disposable CO2 cylinders as well (such as the Soda Boss or the hand-held Fizzini), but there is still a better "technological alternative" than using a CO2 cylinder, and we will be proving it soon with the launch of an astonishing range of flavored sparkling waters, with healthy functional benefits. Also special ionized sparkling waters and a unique range of recipes for revolutionary Sparkling Electrolyte Water. This range is ready and we will be launching it in Q2 2015, using the same technology than for our other beverages: All in 1 pod!
As for the Keurig Cold, well, time will tell. If the rumors are true, pricing could be a real issue for both the appliances and the capsules, even with the big name brands and millions in advertising. And what will be their positioning? Convenience? Health? With Coke on board it would seem a bit complicated, and I do not see the COKE brand on a capsule with their model of "serving the exact same coke taste everywhere", since no two houses have the same water!
Now let's focus on SDS and where our clients want us to be!
That means that we are now entering into the coffee arena, rolling out an exciting line of hot and iced coffees alongside our cold, sparkling and not sparkling beverage flavors. The coffee range will launch with Vanilla, Hazelnut and Caramel coffee pods in 2014 with an extensive range of unique flavors including White Chocolate Mint, Almond, Coconut, Raspberry Chocolate Truffle, but also Espresso Shots, Strong Regular coffee, Cappuccino and Latte among others, following in Q1 2015. These coffees will be offered in the USA under the Marley Coffee Brand as per the brands partnership announcement in September 2014.
We simply re-invented coffee and created something truly unique! Our luscious coffee recipes are amazing because unlike existing market offerings, hot water is not a necessity. Consumers can enjoy their beverage hot or cold and in either milk or water. We call it 'pre-brewed, all-natural, aromatic blends™' and it tastes great hot or iced! Everyone who has tried it agrees, the taste is truly unmatched! Moreover, for the flavored coffees, it is not just adding flavor to the coffee, it is like having them brewed together!
Continuing to expand our reach into new categories, we also announced the roll out of our Rainbow Power™, the first fully natural fat burner beverage range. The Rainbow Power™ calorie killer line, available in liquid drop form and powdered flavor pods, is fully natural, contains no chemical caffeine and is safe for the heart and for the thyroid. In several independent clinical trials Rainbow Power™ fat burner was proven to increase daily basal metabolism by an incredible average of 38.5% at rest with two 500ml servings per day (equates to 760 calories burned in less than 90 minutes after consumption). When used in association with a calorie controlled diet Rainbow Power ™ fat burner will help aid weight loss.
The market is crying out for beverages that not only taste great but are good for your health and diet. We went above and beyond to achieve Rainbow Power's™ weight-loss benefits, making sure that taste was not compromised in any way while offering consumers the option of enjoying beverages still or sparkling, hot or cold, using either the ViBEration pods, or being added directly to still or sparkling water using our beverage enhancer.
Rainbow Power™ will be available in Q1 2015, first in Lemon & Ginger, Lime & Mint and Pineapple as liquid Beverage Enhancers (for adding to consumers' favorite beverage) and in early Q2 with Chili & Chocolate, Pineapple & Guarana, Lemon & Ginger and Orange & Ginger as flavor pods for use with our ViBEration CO2 cylinder free appliances. Rainbow Power™ will be launching under the SHRED brand, a partnership with Dr. Ian K. Smith announcement in July 2014.
As a conclusion
We will revolutionize the future of the At-Home Beverage Appliance in the USA and across the globe! As we meet more and more consumer demands and combine several appliances into one we are finishing to achieve what we call the "Global Beverage Solution Appliance" which will even include a smart small appliance to be attached to water dispensers or fridges to create a very low price Beverage Center. All of this extensive platform range will be starting at less than $20!
By the end of Q2 2015, we will have an amazing collection of Healthy Functional Benefit & Tasty range of Hot & Cold Sparkling & Still Beverages, including all Soft Drinks, Fruits Mixed-Blends, Iced Teas, Cocktails, Energy drinks, fully natural Fat Burner etc… Together with an amazing range of Coffee and Flavored Coffee. We will also have a unique range of Sparkling Flavored, Ionized and Electrolyte Water. What are we missing? Beer? – Not really. Stay tuned!
We are supported by many retailers, and are talking to many potential partners in the Beverage World, including major Coffee Companies and many more big players. We are also supported by very strong partners who are now entering into SDS Shareholding because they simply believe that "David can tickle Goliath(s)". This is SDS' Challenge: Make our clients and their customers happy, all around the globe, by having us as a key and modest innovative partner.
To your health and happiness,
Aaron Serge Bueno
SDS' Founder and Executive Chairman
PS. Keep an eye on us, because ANOTHER revolution is coming very soon!

Telecoms Minister Boutros Harb, right, meets with a delegation from mobile phones merchants in Beirut, Thursday, May 8, 2014. (The Daily Star/Dalati Nohra, HO)
BEIRUT: A joint committee between the Telecommunications Ministry and cellular operators was formed to oversee the improvement of services, Telecoms Minister Boutros Harb announced Monday.
Harb made a statement after meeting the representatives of Orascom, which operates Alfa, and Zein, which runs touch, at the Telecommunications Ministry.
Last week, Harb threatened to scrap the contracts with both companies Monday if the services were not improved.
Zein's vice president, Bader Nasser al-Kharafi, told reporters after the meeting that his company provided excellent services to its clients.
But Kharafi argued that Lebanon's difficult mountain terrain sometimes caused interruptions in communication services.
"We have assigned a new specialized team to make the service improvements," he added.
Orascom's representative said the technical problems were due to isolated incidents.
Harb said he had delayed the ultimatum after representatives of both companies requested a meeting with him.
The minister said ministry would call for an international tender to run the cellular networks once the contracts with touch and Alfa expired at the end of this month.
He added that Zein and Orascom could take part in the bidding.
Sources told The Daily Star that Harb may call on the ministry to take over operation of the networks if the bidding companies did not come up with good offers.
Harb pledges to remove hurdles before telecom privatization

Healthy living, herbal remedies and DIY natural beauty.

Tags: storage containers, DIY storage containers, make your own canisters, DIY canisters, Susan Wasinger, Robyn Griggs Lawrence
This weekend, as a final touch for my kitchen spring cleaning, I'm making these simple storage canisters to stash the detritus that clutters up my countertops: tea bags, pasta and assorted bags of dried fruits and nuts. Former Natural Home art director Susan Wasinger's super simple project makes use of oatmeal, raisin and sea salt packages that would otherwise be garbage. To cover the containers, you can mix and match specialty bookmaking papers, wrapping paper, origami paper, old maps and playbills.
Simple Storage Containers
1. Cut your paper to wrap around the cylinder with about a 1/2-inch overlap. For packages with a cardboard edge, cut the paper an inch taller than the height of the cylinder so the paper can fold over the top. For those with metal edges, cut the paper to fit between the metal rims.
2. Brush the back side of the paper with diluted white glue or paste.
3. Position it even with the bottom edge and press around the cylinder, smoothing out wrinkles as you go. Burnish the paper firmly with the heel of your hand.
4. Clip the overhanging paper back perpendicular to the canister edge to make folding tabs. If necessary, brush them with an extra dab of glue before folding inside the canister.
5. Cork coasters work perfectly as lids. Thread a wood screw up through the bottom of the coaster, then wind a wine cork onto the screw until finger tight.
Try your local art supply or stationery store for interesting papers. Make sure the paper is thick enough to not become transparent when glued. Photo by Susan Wasinger

Hi: 11° Lo:0°
THE RISING number of cases of norovirus have hit blood stocks prompting an urgent appeal for donors with a certain blood type to donate.
Although stocks traditionally dip around the festive period, the earlier than usual outbreak of the winter vomiting and diarrhoea bug has led to a surge in cancelled appointments, in particularly those who are O negative.
Cancellations by donors with that type increased by 50 per cent in the run up to the New Year.
On top of that demand for O negative blood from hospitals has risen, meaning just over three days worth of O negative blood stocks are left.
O negative blood is the most sought after as it is universal and can be given to patients with a different blood group, which can prove vital in an emergency situation when there is not time to test for a specific blood type.
About seven per cent of the population are in the O negative blood group.
Improving blood stocks is crucial to ensure patients undergoing surgery and receiving treatment for cancer and blood diseases such as leukaemia can receive the transfusions they need.
Jon Latham, assistant director of marketing for NHS Blood and Transplant, said: "We would like to urge all O- donors to walk into their most convenient donor session to give blood to help rebuild stock levels.
"Waiting times may vary in the next few days as we try to accommodate all donors.

US 4092844 A Abstract An insertion-type hydrogen probe with a defined active length is described. The probe is formed of a thin-walled, hydrogen-permeable material, and a hydrogen-impermeable liner inside the probe blocks out all but the defined active section of the probe. The interior of the probe is subjected to high vacuum, and the hydrogen permeation through the active portion of the probe is determined, for example, by the current output of an ion pump used with the probe. To prevent bimetallic cell interface effects, the probe is constructed so that only a single metal is exposed to the primary environment being studied.
Claims(4) 1. A hydrogen probe device comprising:
an elongated tubular member formed of a hydrogen-permeable metallic material, said member having a first closed end formed of said hydrogen-permeable metallic material and a second open end for connection to a hydrogen-sensing device; an inner liner in said tubular member, said liner being formed of a hydrogen-impermeable material and extending a part of the length of said tubular member and being sealingly joined at each end to the interior of said tubular member whereby hydrogen permeating the portion of the length thereof between the sealed ends of said liner is prevented from entering the interior of said probe and passing out the open end thereof; and a vent means through the wall of said tubular member between the ends of said liner whereby hydrogen which permeates said tubular member between the sealed ends of said liner may pass freely from between the outer surface of said liner and the lined inner surface of said tubular member thereby preventing a buildup of pressure between the interior of the lined portion of said tubular member and the exterior of said liner, the extent of said vent means being from the exterior to the interior of said tubular member. 2. The hydrogen proble device of claim 1 wherein said elongated tubular member is formed of carbon steel.
3. The hydrogen probe device of claim 1 wherein said liner is formed of stainless steel.
4. The hydrogen probe device of claim 1 wherein the first closed end is formed of a plug welded to said tubular member, said plug having an exterior threaded extension.
Description 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to hydrogen-permeable probes for exposure to environments that form atomic hydrogen. The probe is normally connected to a pressure-indicating or other quantitative gas sensing device such as an ion pump. More particularly, the invention relates to hydrogen probes having a limited active area such that the active part of the probe can be positioned in a desired area of a container. 2. Brief Description of the Prior Art The use of hydrogen-permeable probe members in conjunction with an electronic pump means for determining the amount of hydrogen permeating the probe as an indication of the corrosive activity of a hydrogen-forming environment is well known. U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,498,900 and 3,942,546 disclose the combination of a hydrogen-permeable probe and an ion pump which provides a current reading corresponding to the amount of dissociated hydrogen permeating the hydrogen-permeable section of the probe. Those patents further disclose details regarding suitable probe materials and associated apparatus for use in conjunction with the probe and ion pump combination. The probes described in those patents include finger probes and patch probes of various materials and configurations. A particular hydrogen probe for use in sodium-cooled nuclear reactors is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,886,444. The probe described in that patent has a thin layer of refractory metal coated on the inner wall surface of the probe for controlling the rate of permeation of hydrogen through the tube. Attempts have been made in the past to combine a limited active area probe section with a non-permeable section, but the resulting cell effect of the bimetallic couple in an electrolyte made this undesirable. It has also been proposed to use a limited active area probe electrically insulated from the remainder of the probe structure, but the electrical insulation gave sealing and strength problems. It has further been attempted to mask off a portion of a probe with a non-metallic coating. This has the disadvantage that the coatings can be easily damaged in use, and can be chemically deteriorated in corrosive environments. According to the present invention, an insertable hydrogen probe having a limited active area is provided. The entire exterior of the probe that will be exposed to a corrosive environment is made of a single metal such as carbon steel such that no bimetallic couple is produced. A hydrogen-impermeable sleeve is attached to the interior of the probe along a portion of its length, such that only the hydrogen which permeates the unlined portion of the probe is measured by the ion pump or other gas-determining device utilized with the probe. It is accordingly an object of this invention to provide a probe having a limited active area positionable at a selected location within a container. It is a further object to provide such a probe which does not form a bimetallic couple when placed in an electrolyte within a container. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a probe in accordance with the invention. FIG. 2 is a view, partly in cross-section, showing the probe of the invention attached to a vessel. The most preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described by reference to the drawings. A probe device shown generally at 10 includes an elongated tubular member 11 open at one end and formed of a hydrogen-permeable material. Carbon steel tubing or pipe is a convenient material for forming this member, particularly for low or moderate temperature use, and particularly suitable materials are three-eighths inch steel tubing or one-quarter inch Schedule 80 carbon steel pipe. An end plug 12 also formed of carbon steel is shown welded to one end of the tubular member 11, and the end plug 12 includes external thread means 13 for purposes to be explained later. It is essential that the end plug 12 be of the same material as the tubular member 11 in order to avoid the formation of a bimetallic couple when the probe is placed in a corrosive liquid environment. An inner sleeve or liner 17 is positioned within tubular member 11 and each end thereof is sealingly joined to tubular member 11 such that hydrogen permeating through tubular member 11 along the length lined by sleeve 17 does not have access to the ion pump. Sleeve 17 may be formed of stainless steel or any other material which is impermeable to hydrogen at the intended conditions of use. Stainless steel is particularly suitable for applications at temperatures below 250� C, although at temperatures higher than 250� C stainless steel begins to become permeable to hydrogen, such that other known materials should be used for high temperature situations. When the tubular member 11 is carbon steel and the sleeve 17 is stainless steel, it is particularly preferable to seal the end furthest from the ion pump by silver soldering or other low temperature process to avoid formation of a heat-affected zone in the tubular member, which could produce a bimetallic couple. The seal between tubular member 11 and sleeve 17 at the end nearest the ion pump can be formed by brazing, welding or other suitable methods. A vent 18 is provided through tubular member 11 to prevent a pressure build-up between the interior of the lined portion of tubular member 11 and the exterior of sleeve 17. The vent may be covered with adhesive tape, plastic tubing or other suitable means to keep moisture out of the annulus between sleeve 17 and tubular member 11, and hydrogen can easily escape through the tape or tubing. The active length of the probe is the portion extending beyond the end of sleeve 17, and this may be any fraction of the entire length of the probe depending upon the particular use and environment for which it is to be used. As shown in FIG. 2, the active section extends into vessel 14, and the lined portion extends through a valve attached to vessel 14 so that only the corrosion activity occurring within vessel 14 is measured, and any corrosion occurring within the valve body, which might not be representative of conditions in vessel 14, does not contribute to the reading obtained or the ion pump current readout. A nut 16 is shown in FIG. 2 threaded to the threads 13 on the end plug 12 on tubular member 11. The purpose of this nut 16 is to enable an operator to safely remove the probe from the vessel. The procedure for removing the probe includes sliding it outwardly through packing gland 19 until nut 16 contacts stop member 20. The probe cannot be completely removed until the packing gland is disassembled, but since nut 16 has contacted stop member 20, the operator can close valve gate 21 to isolate packing gland 19 from the interior of vessel 14 without any danger of valve gate 21 having failed to close due to contact with tubular member 11. It will be appreciated that the specific configuration and the size of the probe can vary depending upon the use to which it is to be put. Also, the materials of construction may be other than as described, so long as at the conditions of use the tubular member 11 is formed of a hydrogen-permeable material, and the sleeve 17 is formed of a hydrogen-impermeable material. It is also essential that the portion of the probe exposed to an environment to be tested be of the same material throughout so that a bimetallic couple will not be formed. The gas-sensing device utilized with the probe need not be an ion pump but could be any other sensitive gas-detecting device. The invention is also useful for detection of gases other than hydrogen, in which case tubular member 11 should be formed of a material permeable to the particular gas being determined, and sleeve 17 should be formed of a material impermeable to the specific gas being determined. Numerous variations and modifications of the embodiment shown and described will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the true scope of the invention includes such embodiments as are defined by the appended claims.

Mo'orea is so beautiful you'll be rubbing your eyes at your first glimpse of it from Tahiti. The loveliness of the island intensifies as you draw nearer. That turquoise lagoon that you were sure was Photoshopped in the brochure? It's better in real life. As you admire the near-vertical emerald cliffs, you'll wonder if you are the luckiest person in the world. The short answer is: yes.
Mo'orea has a healthy selection of top-end resorts, but it is also host to a good choice of smaller hotels and pensions (guesthouses). There are pretty white-sand beaches, but nothing big and sweeping. The drawcard is the limpid, warm water of the vibrant lagoon. Frolic with rays and sharks, snorkel or dive through schools of fish in translucent waters, savour the brilliant sunsets, and just chill. If you need more action, learn to kitesurf, take a hike, go on a whale- or dolphin-watching tour, hire a bike or a kayak, or go horse riding. Whatever the experience, there's only one word to describe Mo'orea: divine!

I am researching a Carnagey family who originated in Bucks County, PA. They moved to Brown County, OH and then to Missouri. George Carnagey married Mary First in Richland County Ohio 10 July 1857. In the 1870 census for Adair County, MO, George and Mary and their children are listed. There is also an elderly woman named Phidelia listed who was born in PA. I am assuming that is George's mother. I don't know who George's father was. George was born around 1821 in PA. Any clues to who these people are connected to? I am a descendent of one of George and Mary's children.

I used Burdastyle pants pattern 107 January 2009 for these pants. I must admit that I love the proportion of Burdastyle pants especially the behind! This pattern also has pockets.
The lightweight wool was purchased at Mood Design (in Los Angeles) and combined with a cotton blend lining (in green) to give the pants a nice weight. I lined each piece of fabric rather than creating a free hanging lining and for a little extra detail, embroidered bias tape on the pant hems.

Trailways announced the launch of its new Charter Sales Program, which will offer one-stop shopping for customers who wish to charter passenger transportation. The announcement, made at the 2013 Trailways Stockholders Meeting & Conference last month in San Diego, marks a new era for the history of the organization.
The Trailways Charter Program provides the customer with one point of contact in order to make trip planning easy and convenient. Headquarters staff will personally assist the customer in all aspects of planning their group charter or transport moves that includes quoting a price, scheduling the trip with a Trailways company near them, confirmation on the trip date, coordination with the Trailways local operations, and centralized billing. "Customized, direct customer support is the goal of the new charter effort. We believe customer service and our brand recognition with the public set us apart," Gale Ellsworth, Trailways' President/CEO, said. "Many people remember the Trailways name from our scheduled routes, and that name still conveys trust and quality." A pre-launch test period from 2011 through 2012 was highly successful and this year (2013), the Charter Program was officially launched at Trailways' 77th annual gathering. During the pre-launch, $1.1 million in gross revenue was generated in group charter — transport business for Trailways-affiliated transportation companies. The department, housed at Trailways' corporate office, is now staffed by dedicated sales personnel as well as support staff. "The goal of the program is to deliver more business opportunities to our Trailways companies," Ellsworth said. The program was created by the Trailways board of directors in response to an ever-increasing demand for chartered buses for church, school, military, weddings, corporate meetings and union or political rallies and conventions. The company created a charter quote page on its website www.trailways.com in conjunction with Relational Bus Systems (RBS). It also promotes a service-oriented, toll-free contact number, 1-877-GoRedGo (467-3346). Approximately 20 to 25 group charter or transport move requests are received daily via website or by telephone.
Five U.S.-based bus companies founded Trailways in 1936; today the well-known, respected transport network has grown to nearly 80 Trailways-branded locations, offering scheduled route bus service, charters, tours, and other related travel services. For more than six decades, Trailways' core business revolved around point-to-point, scheduled route service. Today, even though the majority of the affiliated bus companies generate revenues through charter and tours, Trailways will continue offering its famously heralded, scheduled route services through its division of more than sixteen branded, scheduled route bus companies. However, the addition of a universal, Charter Sales Program, marks a new era in the evolution of the organization. Over 250 people attended Trailways 77th annual gathering, which included bus company owner-operators from throughout the U.S. and Canada, industry leaders, government officials, affiliated partners, including the leading bus manufacturers.

haha the plate is like 9″×12″ or bigger i forget. and it was the biggest I had worked with lino, so it kind of made me nervous.
Also cuz the image is so pixilated up close it was hard to tell if it would actually work. But I was so excited when I noticed it.
What I found interesting was the pink ink, notice how it gets lighter? Its all the same Ink…so i dont get why its lighter. And it isnt just the lighting from me taking a picture of it..that is what it looks like. hmm

Thar's gold in them thar hills! Dahlonega, the Georgia gateway to the Appalachians is the site of the first U.S. gold rush. Come pan for gold in historic Dahlonega on the Chestatee river. This large home is located directly on the Chestatee river just before the Coppermines. It was recently renovated, and is now ready for eager treasure hunters and vacationers. We added a ductless air conditioning system in the honeymoon suite on the top floor of the house.
This warm, inviting home on the river was built in 1996. It has five bedrooms, three and a half baths, two great rooms, and two kitchens. All the rooms have high ceilings including the ground floor. If you like vaulted wood ceilings and the heavenly sound and view of the river just about one hundred feet off the covered back deck this is place to spend your vacation.
There are two suites upstairs each on a different floor with their own private bathrooms. Guests with bad knees or other disabilities can get to the mountain splendor bedroom on the main floor by going up just three steps outside. The honeymoon suite is the top floor and has an Amish king-size bed, a sitting area, a vaulted wood ceiling and a full private bathroom. The main floor has a king size bed and a full private bathroom. The terrace level (ground floor) has three bedrooms of which two have queen size beds (the third bedroom has twin beds with a built in bunk-bed above for children) one full bathroom, a great room/kitchen combo and a terrace under the main deck that also looks out at the gorgeous river and shoals. There is a day bed with a trundle bed below in the terrace level great room so a total of nine guests can stay on that ground floor level. So there are two king beds, two queen beds, two twin beds with a built in bunk bed above for children under 12; and a day bed with a trundle bed below it.
Take your choice of the Goldrush bedroom with golden walls, a queen size sleigh bed and antique dresser, the waterfalls bedroom with a queen size bed or the wilderness adventure bedroom that has a built-in bunk bed and two twin beds below (kids love it)! If you have more than 13 people in your party there is a full size sofa upstairs and downstairs and a single size inflatable mattress and pump in the honeymoon suite closet.
The accommodations are perfect for two couples with children, large extended families, a girls, guys or couples getaway, wedding parties (we get a lot), family and company gatherings. The main floor and upstairs suite have an old feel to them even though the house is relatively new. Several rooms have antique dressers and gold accents. We have four televisions with Direct TV; the two upstairs bedrooms each have one and the two great rooms each have a television.
There are several old photos of civil war heros and the old south as well as some books about the area. The ground floor has a newer, more fun feel with a rain forest theme in the greatroom area. Even the bathrooms are fun in this house! You'ens come down yonder and have yur picture taken with our life-size wooden hillbilly, Jed! He'll be out on the deck with his moonshine awaiting your arrival.
Have you ever panned for gold? This house comes with several gold pans so your family and friends can come search for gold without ever leaving the property. At least two of our guests have found gold right on our property. The house has badminton, volleyball, horseshoes, croquet, frisbee toss, weighted yard dart toss, a fire pit, hammock and a picnic table so you can play next to the river. We have wireless internet, Direct TV and a several indoor games and puzzles.
There are many things to do in Dahlonega including outdoor sports like kayaking, fishing, hiking, mountain biking and golf. If outdoors sports are not for you there are also several vineyards (Wolf Mountain Vineyards, Three Sisters Vineyards, Frogtown Mountain Vineyards), antique shops, arts and crafts shops, wildlife preserves and festivals to explore. The Smith House is a historic family style buffet worth visiting although somewhat pricey for country cooking. Lake Lanier is also only 30 minutes south of Dahlonega in Cumming and Gainesville.
Book this exciting vacation get-a-way…make your reservations now! Owner has many photos and will e-mail additional photos to you if requested. CALL FOR LAST MINUTE SPECIALS and weekday discounts! CHILDREN ARE FREE SO ENTER 0 FOR NUMBER OF CHILDREN WHEN YOU BOOK with a note to owner about how many children are actually staying!
Keywords: River House
I was born and raised in the Atlanta area, but both my parents were born and raised in Boston, MA. I currently live in Cumming, GA with my husband and our three dogs. I have a full time job at a subsidiary of a national bank. We have been renting out our river house as a vacation getaway home for eight years now. I love nature and the outdoors especially the mountains. I enjoy hiking, bicycling, kayaking, walking and my pets. I try to give all our guests a good deal including one night free if two or more nights are booked. I get a lot of compliments about the house and have been told by several guests the house was better than expected. We get a lot of wedding parties that book our house since the local vineyards host a lot of weddings. I have enjoyed renting the river house out and I like knowing our house has given lots of families life-long memories they will never forget.
Beth Morgan White purchased this house in 2003
I purchased this property for my father because my sister loves rivers and kayaking and she lives in Dahlonega. The rentals from our river house usually goes back into the house for improvements including a brand new self cleaning double oven and a new air conditioning compressor with any extra to support my elderly father with his assisted living expenses. Dahlonega is a very quaint, charming small town in the north Georgia mountains. Our river house is located directly on the Chestatee river where the first goldrush in the US took place. There are a lot of antique stores and vineyards so we get a lot of wedding parties that book our house.
The sound of the river just off the deck is heavenly. It's very relaxing to sit on the deck overlooking the river listening to the water hit the shoals below. Our river house is located on a dead end road so it's fairly private with only a two or three homes beyond ours. There is a lot of hiking in the area and you can fish and kayak on our property. However, one of the most unique activities you can do on the property is pan for gold. We have several gold pans in the house for our guests to see what they can find in the river. We also have horseshoes, badminton and volleyball you can set up in the grassy area next to the river. The square in Dahlonega is very charming and quaint. There are many stores and restaurants you can visit and if you like antiques or vineyards Dahlonega has those as well.

The jedinka is a small Croatian whistle flute, usually highly carved and decorated. Often carved from maple or chestnut wood, the jedinka is a single tube with a whistle-like mouthpiece and six equally spaced finger holes. These small, simple instruments were used mainly by shepherds, who played them individually in the fields.
"Jedinka" or "zveglica" is single flute made mostly of walnet tree or elder. Although we can use the other kind of trees, for example a plum or maple tree or cherry. "Jedinka" has six holes for pickering. The name "frula" in Hrvatsko Zagorje for this instrument has been never used. One interested characteristic for single fluts from Hrvatsko Zagorje is quarter section differently from all others modes similarly flutes which are regularly rounded in section. "Jedinka" has very tender and elegical tone.

So I just racked half my raspberry wheat ale onto fresh/frozen raspberries and bottled half with just flavor extract to see which one I like better. My question is how long to I leave the beer in the secondary with the fresh raspberries? Full 2 weeks? 1 Week on then rack into a tertiary? Help is appreciated. Thanks everyone!
There are too many variables to give you a "correct" answer versus an opinion. Take a small sample at the end of one week and see if you like it or not. If not, then try again in another week.
That is very true I guess I will play it by ear! Thanks!

Takara Bio Initiates Phase 1 HIV Gene Therapy Clinical Trial
Tokyo, Jan 7, 2013 (JCN) - Takara Bio and its collaborators, University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University College of Medicine have initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial in its program for HIV-1 infections.
Takara Bio has developed an investigational retroviral technology for HIV-1 gene therapy, in which MazF, an endoribonuclease from Escherichia coli, confers resistance to a broad-spectrum of HIV-1 strains on CD4+ T cells.
The Regulatory Sponsor of this study is Carl H. June, M.D., Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. The Principal Investigator of the study is Jeffrey M. Jacobson, M.D., Chief of the Division of Infectious Diseases and HIV Medicine and Professor of Medicine, Microbiology and Immunology Division at Drexel University College of Medicine.
The MazF retroviral vector for this study is manufactured at the GMP compliant Center for Cell and Gene Therapy Facility of Takara Bio (Kusatsu, Shiga, Japan). The patients' CD4+ T cells will be modified with MazF retroviral vector at the GMP compliant Cell and Vaccine Production Facility at the University of Pennsylvania.
In this clinical trial, the patients will be monitored for safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of the autologous CD4+ T cells modified with the MazF endoribonuclease for six months. The estimated total enrollment is twelve subjects, six in each of the Cohorts 1 and 2.

3. No Precedents For Tax
Winslow argued that this tax was a departure from any previous actions by the Massachusetts legislature, with no precedents set for a tax on services. Going forward, he said, it will put a tax on the software services industry that isn't a burden on any other sector of the economy.
"Why just this service? And why structure it in the form of a transportation finance bill?" Winslow asked.
