(Markleysburg, PA)...After kicking off the season for the Sweeney Chevrolet Buick GMC RUSH Dirt Late Model Touring Series last Friday night at New York's Freedom Speedway, action shifts south to Roaring Knob Motorsports Complex this Saturday night (June 7). The "Bill Hendren Memorial" will take place at the scenic 3/8-mile oval in Markleysburg, Pa. followed up by the $4,000 to-win "Steel City 100" and expected $5,000 "Steel City Roulette" drawing on Sunday evening at Pittsburgh's PA Motor Speedway.
The late engine builder from Rutherfordton, North Carolina was a big supporter of the Crate Late Model engine concept from its inception. Bill passed away on March 19, 2011, but his legacy is being carried on by his son Steve, who continues to operate Hendren Racing Engines and also campaigns a Crate Late Model in the Southeast. Steve was the winner of the inaugural memorial event held back in 2011.
Last year's event at Roaring Knob marked the first time ever a "Bill Hendren Memorial" event was held in the Northeast. The race was won by Chad McClellan, who ironically is coming off the season opening win last Friday night at Freedom. McClellan also has Sweeney Weekly Series wins this season at Roaring Knob and Winchester Speedway. The Stoystown, Pa. driver is also a loyal customer of Hendren Racing Engines.
"We are truly honored to be able to present a Bill Hendren Memorial in conjunction with one of our RUSH Touring Series events for the second straight year," expressed RUSH Co-Director Vicki Emig. "The Bill Hendren Memorials have been a huge hit in the past for competitors in the South and we know our racers will be thrilled when they see everything that will be up for grabs in both cash and contingencies once again. While I didn't personally know Bill Hendren, it's obvious that he was a great man and built the strong foundation that has established Hendren Racing Engines as one the most respected engine builders in the industry."
This year's event will pay $1,500 to-win along with thousands of dollars of contingencies to be given away to the racers. The top three finishers will each receive a beautiful engraved plaque from the Hendren Family. The Hendrens alone are also putting up an additional $5,000 plus in contingencies!
At last year's event, the racers shared in approximately $8,000 in contingencies and this year that amount is expected to double! Companies such as FK Rod Ends, High Velocity Heads, Dirtwrap, Velocita USA, Flag to Flag, Ontime Body & Graphics, Hendren Racing Engines, Mike's Custom Tanks, Willy's Carb & Dyno Shop, R2C Performance Products, Bernheisel Race Components, Race-1, KRC Power Steering, TNT Race Cars, Hooker Custom Headers, BSB Manufacturing, and Schaeffer's Oil are expected to participate.
In addition, the normal Sweeney Touring Series contingencies will be available. Precise Racing Products will award a $100 gift card for the "Pedal Down" Hard Charger that passes the most cars in the feature. The Brake Man "Tough Brake of the Night" will award three bottles of Xtreme6 Racing Brake Fluid valued at approximately $45 along with a certificate good for either $50 off of a purchase of $100 or more or 20% off any The Brake Man purchase.
The ARbodies "Nosed Out" will award a nose kit to the first driver that fails to qualify for the feature through the B main. Driven Racing Oil's "Slick Move of the Night" winner will receive a bottle of Driven Racing Oil Race Wax, a can of Driven Racing Oil Speed Clean, and a certificate for $50 off a case of Driven XP Synthetic Racing Oil!
Crate Innovations will present both the "Ignite" and "Performance Plus" Awards. The feature runner-up will receive a carb spacer kit that includes one billet aluminum Accelerator-1, one upper and one lower spacer gasket, and four specifically designed washers used for installation, while the driver that finishes last on the lead lap will receive the Moroso Custom Fit Plug Wire Set, which are custom tailored for use with the Chevrolet Performance 602 and 604 circle track engines.
Clint Elkins of Speedway Benefits and the promoter of Carolina Speedway in Gastonia, North Carolina is awarding a guaranteed starting spot to the winners of both Sweeney Tour events this weekend as well as free entry fees for all non-North Carolina and South Carolina racers for the October 16-17 "King of the Carolinas" crate event. The event does not conflict with any RUSH event. RUSH is part of Speedway Benefits and Elkins is good friends with Steve Hendren.
Roaring Knob has already completed nine Sweeney Weekly Series events with six different winners this season! Current point leader Michael Lake leads the way with three wins followed by Rick Singleton with two, while Dan Angelicchio, McClellan, Jacob Hawkins, and Ryan Montgomery all have single victories. Lake not only leads Roaring Knob's points but is also atop the standings in the $5,000 to-win Sweeney Weekly Series and $1,000 to-win "Futures Cup".
Pits open at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday with warm-ups at 6:45 and racing at 7:15. You do not need to be a member of RUSH to compete in any RUSH-sanctioned event. RACEceivers are mandatory and Roaring Knob uses the yellow Westhold transponders.
More information on Sunday's event at Pittsburgh will be released this week.

Dead Rising 2 senior producer Josh Bridge has confirmed that Capcom will be unleashing a plethora of downloadable content for the zombie-slaying sequel on PlayStation Network in the coming weeks.
First in line is the Psychopath Theme Pack, which allows you to kit hero Chuck Greene out in a horror-themed outfit that augments him with an assortment of weapons including a chainsaw, cleaver, axe and machete. Apparently, this'll make Greene 'stronger and deadlier'. It's out on October 12.
Up next is the Soldier of Fortune Theme on October 19, which "decks you out as the ultimate action hero with increased deadliness for all firearms".
After this comes the Sports Fun Pack, where you take on the role of the "ultimate sports party animal," allowing Greene to down as much drink as possible without getting sick in the process. In addition, you'll also prove "more deadly with any sporty weapons." Look out for this pack on October 26.
Finally, Capcom will be releasing the Ninja Theme pack on November 2, rendering you "virtually undetectable to the undead" as a result. Furthermore, Greene's proficiency with swords and throwing weapons will increase dramatically. Sounds like a winner to us.

@giraffeears- Garnish cutting and Thai fruit cutting are very different from making a tourne cut. They take a certain level of skill and practice to make them look good. You are essentially turning food into a sculpture. Thai fruit sculptures are meticulously planned, and can take hours to complete, but the finished product is incredibly appealing.
Watermelons and squash are favorites for this type of decorative food preparation because the skin, rind, and fruit all have different colors that show up when the fruit is carved. You can carve bouquets of pink and white flowers, with white and green leaves out of a watermelon, or a bouquet of white and yellow roses with green leaves out of a squash. A simple online search will yield a number of impressive fruit sculptures.
If you are looking to learn to garnish cut, you should start with easy garnishes like radish roses and fruit and vegetable fans. You can find guides on how to cut fruits and vegetables into these simple patterns online.

by Sonia Rastogi, Advocacy Coordinator, U.S. Positive Women's Network, a project of WORLD
A couple of years ago, I did not know what advocacy and activism really meant. I understood that I was drawn toward social justice issues and ideas of equality. I understood that I wanted to walk on a personal and professional road guided by human rights. I did not know what that looked like for me, however. I could not connect all the dots, especially around HIV. I grew up in the 2nd generation of HIV – a generation that had HIV medications and that institutionalized HIV prevention, care, and treatment programs. Apparently it was not an emergency in the U.S. anymore, unlike the rest of the world.
My perspective changed, however, when I received an HIV-positive diagnosis. As a young woman in her early twenties I was devastated. It does not matter if it's the 2000s. In that shock after hearing the results, you feel like you're in the 1980s. I slowly inched my way towards learning about women and HIV issues – at first I was looking for support, for community, for the opportunity to talk to another woman living with HIV.
I got involved in the U.S. Positive Women's Network (PWN) and then it clicked. My story and my experiences are not unlike many other women's experiences around the country and across the globe. The personal is political. Being a part of this network of fierce and courageous HIV-positive women and allies taught me that we cannot talk about curbing the epidemic without talking about the fact that over two-thirds of women experience some form of intimate partner violence for the first time in their lives before the age of 25; or the reality that about 1 in 7 men experience severe physical violence by an intimate partner at some point in their lifetime (CDC National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey).
We cannot talk about curbing the epidemic without recognized that women living with HIV in the U.S., disproportionately African-American women and Latinas, get sick faster, die sooner, and have poorer health outcomes. The South, a region of historical oppression and neglect, is experiencing a human rights crisis. In some counties and jurisdictions, the rate of women living with HIV exceeds the national rate of approximately 25%. Broken health care systems, poverty, and gender-based violence fuel the epidemic. In an environment where gender, race, and geography are more potent risk factors than individual risk behavior, we must ask ourselves how we are addressing root causes.
We cannot talk about curbing the epidemic without recognizing that homophobia and transphobia run deep. In Oakland, a trans woman was shot in her car on April 29. Authorities are investigating if the shooting was a hate crime. Thanks to Tiffany Woods, Trans Vision, and Tri-City Health Center, the story is framed to respect and not sensationalize. In Philadelphia, public transportation passes require a "F" or "M" to indicate gender – a regulation that has put many people at risk for discrimination on buses and trolleys. Thanks to Philadelphia Riders Against Gender Exclusion, this regulation is being considered for removal.
These are a few of the issues that we need to take action on when advocating for women living with and vulnerable to HIV. More importantly, women living with HIV must be in leadership roles to ensure that prevention, care, and treatment plans reflect and prioritize the realities of women's lives. By supporting, preparing, and training women living with HIV, we invest in our future, our communities, and ourselves.

We are very pleased to offer to our fellow flashlight freaks the 1000 lumen max Pro Tango T6. The Pro Tango Series is a tactical design that incorporates years of feedback, suggestions and comments that we have received from our devoted MF Tactical law enforcement fans and users. The Pro Tango Series represents the highest quality and the finest design we have ever produced. While its beauty can be plainly seen in the pictures on this page, what is beneath its anodized aluminum skin makes it even more desireable.
The Pro Tango T6 builds upon the former Pro Tango R5 model with the addition of several design features, including MF Tactical's boldest and most innovative design features to date: the integration of a stainless steel control dial just below the light head that enables you to select the flashlight's mode setting without first having to cycle through all of the modes with the tail switch. Just grasp the distinctive and ergonomic control dial and dial in the mode that you would like to use. The Pro Tango T6 uses the outstanding Cree® XM-L-T6 LED emitter, which has enabled us to make the Pro Tango T6 our brightest single-battery tactical light ever.
Pro Tango T6 shown here with standard OP reflector.
The Pro Tango Series includes a much desired feature: Our law enforcement users have told us that they need a"momentary-on function" in order to maximize the utility of a tactical flashlight. Thus, when you lightly press the tail switch button on the new MFTactical Pro Tango T6, you activate this impressive LED flashlight's massively bright white beam. Let go of the button, and it immediately turns off. For clearing a building or just briefly lighting up a suspect, or his car, the Pro Tango's momentary-on functiongives you the flexibility and control to expertly execute your training and tactics. Need the light to stay on, simply press the button until it clicks, and then it operates like a standard on/off switch - just click on/click off or press for momentary on - you are in complete control of your Pro Tango T6.
The Pro Tango T6 is a 5-mode light, and the control dial quickly and easily lets you switch between high, medium, low, strobe andSOS modes. And, since the dial control works independently of the momentary on switch, you can pre-select the tactical mode youneed, and then just press the button to activate the light in whichever mode you have set the control dial. Simple, elegant and effective! The Pro Tango T6 is also made with the harder and more durable, Level III military grade anodized finish.
The MF Tactical Pro Tango Series, is the multi-mode big brother to our Victor Series, which continues the tradition of including in the design an aggressive and beautiful brushed aluminum crenulated Attack Bezel. Not only does this rich feature give this light its distinctive and high quality look and feel, but having a chunk of solid honed aluminum on the business end of your light also serves to give the user one serious last line of defense (which we hope you will never need to use). In addition to its use as a defensive tool, the Pro Tango Series' potent attack bezel also protects the light from damage in the event of a drop and also provides a glass breaker in the event of an emergency. Following through with the quality brightwork design element of the bezel, you will find a polished aluminum pocket clip that enables you to secure your Pro Tango T6 to your belt or pocket. All in all, what you see on this page is a stunning and well engineered essential tool that you will trust and rely upon as your everyday carry tactical light.
Building a tactical flashlight around the Cree T6 LED emitter makes designing flashlights seem almost too easy (don't worry, we know and appreciate how much hard work our engineer puts into his work) because we are working with so much potential light output in such a small, cool and efficient chip. Because MF Tactical is a nimble and lean US manufacturer, we are able to stay flexible and open to design upgrades while we keep our eyes open for the next big LED advancement, whereas our larger competitors seemingly stay wedded to older technology long after it has become obsolete. As a result, we are able to constantly improve our products and continually innovate as technology progresses.
The proof, as they say, is in the pudding, and the new Pro Tango Series demonstrates precisely what results can be achieved by simply being motivated to do everything better and more efficiently than the other guy. Utilizing an emitter with a max output rating of 1000 lumens and being priced at about half of that charged by bigger manufacturers offering less features, the Pro Tango T6represents the new standard in hand held tactical lighting designed for law enforcement. While we won't knock the quality of our competitors, once you hold a MF Tactical in your hand, you will know that we make a light that exceeds the highest of build quality standards. And we stand behind our quality with our one year limited warranty.
The Pro Tango T6 was built to run on a single high voltage 18650 rechargeable protected li-ion battery (Do NOT use CR-123A's or any unprotected batteries). While the price shown for the flashlight is without batteries, just check the box marked "Select Battery/Charger Package" when you put this light in your shopping cart, and you can choose from a variety of packages made up of one or two of our top quality rechargeable li-ion batteries and your choice of charger type, all offered with a package deal and with no additional shipping. We also stock a variety of accessories, such as mounting hardware, remote pressure switches and holsters.
MF Tactical designs and builds state of the art, top quality flashlights with the best possible materials and electronics, and we ship quickly from New Jersey (no Tony Soprano jokes please!) by USPS 1st Class or Priority Mail. That way, you will have your light in a few days instead of the 3-4 weeks it takes to come from the Far Eastern sellers. Also, since MF Tactical is run by an openly neurotic flashlight freak, orders are frequently packed the same day and shipped out the following morning. Our mission is to sort through all of the competing technologies and materials to figure out what works best and what is just junk. ONLY then, after we have worked out what constitutes the best features and materials for a particular type of light, does that light get designed, tested and then introduced as an MF Tactical. As our growing list of customers already know, MF Tactical combines the best of the best products and features at the best possible prices with excellent and caring customer service.
Pro Tango T6 shown with optional SMO Upgrade
SMO Reflector Option:
If you would like to upgrade your Pro Tango T6 to maximize the throw distance of this magnificent emitter, we offer the option to upgrade your reflector to a highly polished SMO smooth reflector. The standard OP or "orange peel" reflector has a textured surface that acts to evenly disburse the light over a wider field, which makes the light have a bias towards flood or spill. As some users prefer their light to have a bias towards throw, which concentrates more of the beam towards the center, sending more of the light farther down field, we offer the option of upgrading your light's reflector to an SMO reflector. Think of the difference as the choice of loading your home's light fixture with a spot light bulb vs. a flood light bulb. If you would want to maximize your light's throw potential through the use of an SMO reflector, just check that option box when ordering to upgrade your standard OP reflector to the SMO reflector.
If you prefer to have both reflectors, just order the light with the standard OP reflector, and then add the SMO reflector as an accessory.

I recently got engaged to my gorgeous boyfriend and didn't really know were to start looking for my ring. Loads of my friends and family told me to go to Joseph Rea's. I was glad I listened. Not only do they have the largest chose and styles of ring anywhere in Belfast but they were hands down (new diamond ring on finger) the best price, even when comparing the same high quality they could not be beaten on price. So I give u the advise my mum give to me, DON'T PASS BY JOSEPH REA'S

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)Indian baby girl with hydrocephalus to go abroad to seek medical attention
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
April 17th, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) Runa Begum of India is a 16-month-old little girl who suffers from the rare - and difficult malady known as hydrocephaly. The condition causes the patient's head to fill with fluids, causing the head to grow to extreme size. Her rare plight, as seen in photographs published all over the world, has caused charitable organizations to donate to her medical treatment. LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - From Tripura, India, Runa lives in poverty with her mother and father. The Indian medical group, Fortis Healthcare Limited, operates hospitals across India and the pan-Asian Pacific region, and is assisting with the girl's medical care.Runa's father, Abdul Rahman, earns about $3 a day working at a brick factory in Tripura, northeast India, and the family was at a loss for how to pay for her medical care. According to the online encyclopedia Wikipedia, references to hydrocephalic skulls can be found in ancient Egyptian medical literature from 2500 BC to 500 AD.[2] Hydrocephalus was described more clearly by the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates in the 4th century BC, while a more accurate description was later given by the Roman physician Galen in the 2nd century A.D. The first clinical description of an operative procedure for hydrocephalus appears in the Al-Tasrif (1,000 A.D.) by the Arab surgeon, Abulcasis, who clearly described the evacuation of superficial intracranial fluid in hydrocephalic children. He described it in his chapter on neurosurgical disease, describing infantile hydrocephalus as being caused by mechanical compression. He states. "The skull of a newborn baby is often full of liquid, either because the matron has compressed it excessively or for other, unknown reasons. The volume of the skull then increases daily, so that the bones of the skull fail to close. In this case, we must open the middle of the skull in three places, make the liquid flow out, then close the wound and tighten the skull with a bandage."

Well, it's June already. Sometimes I wonder why I take the Christmas tree down every year. Do the months fly by for you as well? The good news is the vegetable garden is in and we've finally had some rain to make it grow. Spring is always a very busy time here. Lots of fast growing grass to cut and perennial beds to weed and re-organize before I just let them be.
Speaking of gardening. In my stash I had a jelly roll and a charm pack of Mary Englebreit's Basket of Flowers fabrics. So with the help of my assistant, Ted we used a snowball pattern and put together a table topper.
We just kind of made up the pattern as we went along. It was fun incorporating the blocks into the border.
And for the first time we made a scrappy binding.
For the quilting Ted suggested mostly straight line with a free motion flower in the centre of each block. Great choice, Ted!
When we were all finished our topper Ted carefully picked out a box and we sent it off to our special friend, Linda in France for her birthday.
This past Saturday while DH was attending a guitar workshop in a nearby town I tagged along and checked out the thrift stores. Just look what I found! A 1992 43 oz. Fitz and Floyd teapot and cream and sugar set in excellent condition all for just $9.99. Does anyone happen to know the name of this pattern? I researched and found a "Fruit Fair" but the white is a basket weave not 'ribbed' like these are. DH says it looks like a knitted cozy is already on the teapot.
Thanks very much for stopping by and we hope to see you again soon,

HTCs new One X+ smartphone leaked
August 9, 2012
By Nigel Chew
By Nigel Chew
09 August 2012 – Even if HTC isn't exactly winning with its One series, that hasn't stopped the company from preparing a successor to its flagship HTC One X, due for an early autumn release.
Codenamed 'Endeavour C2', the HTC One X+ will feature a 1.7GHz quad-core processor, an 'improved' battery as well as full compatibility with all the One X's accessories. The device is slated for a September release, which probably means HTC will be announced it roughly the same time with the new batch of Windows Phone 8 devices by Nokia and Apple's next iPhone.

Terrific Kids
We look around our school and see amazing kids all over the place, but once a month, The Kiwanis Club invites us to celebrate a student in each grade level that shines above the rest. These students are chosen by their grade level teachers to be awarded with the honor of "Terrific Kid". Each one is highlighted in the monthly middle school newsletter "Middle Matters" and is invited to attend a breakfast with the Kiwanis Club where he or she is recognized and awarded a plaque. We are so proud of these students and hope that you enjoy reading about their accomplishments as well. We are sure you will agree that these students are truly "Terrific Kids"!

TASTC! ep 7 The way it should be, part twoThe way it should be, part twoThe Autobots stood there, shock in their optics at the sight before them. Prowl had been offline for over a year, his body melted into a protoform; and now, here he was, as if nothing ever happened.Prowl himself was equally confused. He remembered dying and using what little strength he could muster to pull Optimus out of the explosion, but that was it. Now, he was online again. He could feel it was real. He looked down at his servos. They were real, HE was real. He then noticed the group of shocked Autobots across the room. He was surprised to see who they were. He decided to test his luck. Slowly, he set one pede in front of the other and walked up to them. He could see their expressions clear as anything. Optimus was wide optic, and his jaw was limp; Ratchet had the same look from when Sari had healed him once before; Ultra Magnus was stunned; and Sentinel screamed 'Zombie' and ran for his life. He then noticed a small Organic female cowering behind t
TFATSC! Homecoming part 2.Homecoming part 2.It was only two hours since Sari had arrived on Earth, but time slowed in that moment of seeing the strange girl. She was tall; about 5'8; making her about an inch and a half taller than Sari. Her long brown wavy hair fell to about her elbow joint. She had an slightly angled jaw that lead down to a soft round-like chin. Her hazel-green eyes were normal sized for a human, and were slighty angled at the edges. It gave her a bit of a cat appearance. The rest of her body was wide framed, but looked surprisingly lean. She was wearing grey jeans, a green and black tee, and snow white running sneakers."Oh Sari," professor Sumdac said. "I forgot to tell you. This is Alexa Johnson, my apprentice intern. She is working with me to help develop new technologies. Her understanding of earth robotics is quite profound." As he said this, he motioned for Alexa to come forward."Why thank you professor," Alexa said. "I'm just happy to help and learn." She then turned to Sari and gave
Our Baby Chapter 13Chapter 13Falcon sat on the couch while Wolf was in the backyard mowing the grass. In a few hours, they were going to Tammy's house for the party. He heard the doorbell. "Come in." He yelled. It was hot that day and he was too lazy to get up. He sat up when he heard Jaz and Arya giggling. The girls ran to him and hugged him. "Hey girls how are you feeling?" They sat on the couch, one on each side of him. He looked up when he heard Marie. "Hey Marie. I hope you brought bathing suits for everyone; it is a pool party after all.""Where is my brother hiding? What did you do, lock him in the basement?" Falcon and the girls laughed."No, he is mowing the lawn in the back. He should be in soon; he said it was too nice a day to pass up lawn work. Power to him I say, I think it is too hot to do anything." He leaned back on the couch and smiled at his nieces. He still felt weird calling them that. They leaned on him with their head on his shoulders. "Alright what did you two do or what do you w

Rachel smoothly repeated the moves over and over again, smiling when she saw the flashes of bright light appear before her eyes. For the past few hours, she had been busy learning the basics of kaijudo. She was able to master making manna shields and doing basic control commands with Kenina. Now, she was working on creating portals through the vail to pull creatures out of. She easily copied Master Jaha's moves and wasn't even breaking a sweat, the other achalytes however… "Enough" The commanding voice of Jaha rang out. Rachel watched as the other students were heaving, trying to get in as much air into their bodies as possible. The boys from earlier were also there, leaning over breathless."Now for this week's assignment, you are to study the water civilization

In front of her stood a large male, he was heavy, bald, orange beard and mustache, and apparently Scottish. Second well, second, find the weakness, which was obviously the peg leg. The third second, act! Closing the gap between them, she felt her adrenaline rush. He stood his stance, ready to counter, but the attack never came. Instead, Rachel slipped behind him and swept her leg under him. She winced slightly as her leg contacted the wooden peg. She watched as the man lost his balance. Hearing the grunt as he fell face first into the stone floor, she turned and ran out. She figured she had about 15 to 30 seconds before he was able to sound the alarm and she wanted to put a lot of distance between them.

It was filled with creatures, especially lizard like one's. The landscape was harsh, with lava and flying rocks. Suddenly, a wind picked up, gently pushing her towards the palace. She floated through the walls into the throne room. Inside where more lizard like things. Two of them seemed to glow red, in fact, they almost looked like the landscape outside. Another lizard sat on the throne wearing armor. His skin was green and his eye's held violence. An announcer came, another lizard, and bowed low to the green skinned one."Lord Skycrusher," he began hesitantly, "your daughter, Fioria the Burnheart, requests to see you oh magnificent one.". "Send her in," he replied. His voice hissed in an annoying way to Rachel. The doors groaned as they opened to the incoming visitor. Rachel

Going into the rest of Thursday night, we'll stay mild and cloudy with an occasional shower or two moving through. The tropical airmass will keep lows well into the mid to upper 40s tonight and a mild start to the first day of March.
For Friday, some morning fog in the valleys, but its looking like a partly sunny afternoon and a quick jump in temperatures to near 60 in the valley and low to mid 60s in the Umpqua. If you have some vacation time to burn at work, Friday would be the day to do it! Saturday will also be mild but clouds return by the afternoon and the next rain maker moves in by dinnertime at the coast and overnight into Sunday for more showers to end the first weekend of March.
Next week sees occasional rainmakers and highs falling back down into the low 50s. Snow levels will drop back into the higher foothills but the storms coming won't be major winter blasts, just occasional showers and snow showers.
Have a great Friday!

Changing gain's pot position increases or reduces the gyros stabilizing effect. With it all the way up it is extremely stable like a coaxial helicopter. With it turn all the way down it is super responsive and twitchy for 3D flight.

Failed to do a brushless upgrade yesterday with the config in the first post of this thread
- CO5M 13000kv (the HM-C05M-Z-15ADH50, from here) - 9T pinion + genius cp main gear - WK-WST-10A-LT It has very little power and makes horrible noise. See video. Everything seems to turn correctly. The head of rotor is not more difficult to turn manually than with the stock brushless motor. There is a half-milimeter space between the motor and the servo. I've tried to move it further away from the main gear - no change. When I put the stock motor back it works like a charm. Any great ideas? |

Seems to make normal noice when run on its own.
I assembled the heli with the motor and I do get decent lifting power. However it makes a LOT more noice than the brushed motor and battery time seems awfully short (i.e. shorter than with my new brushed motor) But I have yet to do a timed comparison. Also with the brushlees motor the heli is extremely janky it moves in a robotic way. The only other thing I changed was that I put a genius main gear. Perhaps I should try with my mini cp gear (only that means I'll have to remove the pinion from the brushed motor)? Is it worth the hassle you think? |

Are the brushless motors supposed to have high frequency vibrations? both my c05 motors vibrate even without pinions, completely assembled my mini vibrates to the point it moves around on the floor with 0 pitch.
I had to lower the gyro sens slightly so that the gyro stopped shaking the servos when hovering indoors. One c05 is a 11000kv 1.5mm / 7&8T from HK and the other is a 11500kv 1mm / 9T from Chinese Jade. |
Nov 23, 2012, 01:14 AM | ||
The flight time with the C05 is pretty good using the Genius CP main gear. You should get at least a minute or more flight time over the stock brush motor. Sounds like the gear mesh is not correct or the pinion is slipping on the motor shaft. Is your pinion a M0.5? If gear mesh or pinion slipping on the motor shaft is not the problem then you may have a bad motor bearing. Tom |

Summer is Out for School
August 26, 2012
I tried a ponytail on Mara the other day and just about died from cuteness sensory overload. The five minutes of cajoling and chasing and trying to clip her hair just-so was totally worth it. My fun girl also turned 9 mos recently AND took her first steps. For the most part, she is a very happy crawler and is taking her time with walking. GREAT. It's the climbing that's nerve-wracking for me.
When I'm not chasing Mara down or recovering from my efforts (baby = exhaustion), I still try to work on projects with the boys. The latest is this very cool bow and arrow DIY. Do you like the quiver DIY by my kids? Step 1: Slide arrow down the back of your shirt.
We took our "archery gear" to the park on Saturday, and I'm not kidding you, kids flocked to us like we were the Pied Piper but without lute music and deaths. As non-threatening as we were, it felt like we were babysitting stranger's kids while they enjoyed their bbq because where were the parents?! The kids were very sweet and polite, but preschool young…and without parents! And it was a big playground. At one point (the point when I started to smell bbq seafood) I half-jokingly asked one of the kids to grab me a plate of food. No dice, because he told me to get my own food, ha.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
A young adult, according to Erik Erikson's stages of human development, is generally a person in the age range of 20 to 40, whereas an adolescent is a person aging from 13 to 19,[1][2] although definitions and opinions vary. The young adult stage in human development precedes middle adulthood. A person in the middle adulthood stage ages from 41 to 64. In old age, a person is 65 years old or older.[3]
For a variety of reasons, timeliness on young adulthood cannot be exactly defined—producing different results according to the different mix of overlapping indices (legal, maturational, occupational, sexual, emotional and the like) employed, or on whether 'a developmental perspective...[or] the socialization perspective[4] is taken. 'Sub-phases in this timetable of psychosocial growth patterns...are not rigid, and both social change and individual variations must be taken into account'[5]—not to mention regional and cultural differences. Arguably indeed, with people living longer, and also reaching puberty earlier, 'age norms for major life events have become highly elastic'[6] by the twenty-first century.
Some have suggested that, after ' Pre-adulthood...in the first 20 years or so...the second era, Early Adulthood, lasts from about age 17 to 45...the adult era of greatest energy and abundance and of greatest contradiction and stress.'[7] Within that framework, 'the Early Adult Transition (17–22) is a developmental bridge between pre-adulthood and early adulthood',[8] recognizing that 'the transition into adulthood is not a clear-cut dividing line'.[9] One might alternatively speak of 'a Provisional Adulthood (18–30)...[&] the initiation to First Adulthood'[10] as following that.
Despite all such fluidity, there is broad agreement that it is essentially the twenties and thirties which constitute ' Early adulthood...the basis for what Levinson calls the Dream—a vision of his [or her] goal's in life which provide motivation and enthusiasm for the future'.[11]
Young/prime adulthood can be considered the healthiest time of life[12] and young adults are generally in good health, subject neither to disease nor the problems of senescence. Biological function and physical performance reach their peak from 20–35 years of age, waning after 35. Strength peaks around 25 years of age, plateaus through 35–40 years of age, and then declines. Flexibility also decreases with age throughout adulthood. However, there are large individual differences and a fit 40-year-old may out-compete a sedentary 20-year-old.[13]
Women reach their peak fertility in their early 20's.[14] Assuming unprotected intercourse with a man of the same age, women aged 19–26 have about a 50% chance of becoming pregnant during a given menstrual cycle, compared with 40% in the 27–34 age group and below 30% for women 35–39.[15]
In developed countries, mortality rates for the 18–40 age group are typically very low. Men are more likely to die at this age than women, particularly in the 18–25 group: reasons include car accidents and suicide. Mortality statistics among men and women level off during the late twenties and thirties, due in part to good health and less risk-taking behavior.[16]
Regarding disease, cancer is much less common in young than in older adults.[17] Exceptions are testicular cancer, cervical cancer, and Hodgkin's lymphoma.[18] In sub-Saharan Africa, HIV/AIDS has hit the early adult population particularly hard. According to a United Nations report, AIDS has significantly increased mortality of between ages 20 to 55 for African males and 20 to 45 for African females, reducing the life expectancy in South Africa by 18 years and in Botswana by 34 years.[19]
According to Erikson, in the wake of the adolescent emphasis upon identity formation, 'the young adult, emerging from the search for and insistence on identity, is eager and willing to fuse his identity with that of others. He [or she] is ready for intimacy, that is, the capacity to commit...to concrete affiliations and partnerships.'[20] To do so means the ability 'to face the fear of ego loss in situations which call for self-abandon: in the solidarity of close affiliations, in orgasms and sexual unions, in close friendships and in physical combat'.[21] Avoidance of such experiences 'because of a fear of ego-loss may lead to a deep sense of isolation and consequent self-absorption'.[21]
Where isolation is avoided, the young adult may find instead that 'satisfactory sex relations...in some way take the edge off the hostilities and potential rages caused by the oppositeness of male and female, of fact and fancy, of love and hate';[22] and may grow into the ability to exchange intimacy, love and compassion.
In modern societies, young adults in their late teens and early 20's encounter a number of issues as they finish school and begin to hold full-time jobs and take on other responsibilities of adulthood; and 'the young adult is usually preoccupied with self-growth in the context of society and relationships with others.'[23] The danger is that in 'the second era, Early Adulthood...we must make crucially important choices regarding marriage, family, work, and lifestyle before we have the maturity or life experience to choose wisely.'[24]
While 'young adulthood is filled with avid quests for intimate relationships and other major commitments involving career and life goals', there is also "a parallel pursuit for the formulation of a set of moral values".[25] Erikson has argued that it is only now that what he calls the 'ideological mind' of adolescence gives way to 'that ethical sense which is the mark of the adult.'[26]
Daniel Levinson suggested that the first phase of early adulthood comes to a close around twenty-eight to thirty, when 'at about 28 the provisional character of the twenties is ending and life is becoming more serious...the age-thirty crisis.'[27] Others have spoken of 'the Catch-30 Passage...between age 28 and 32', stressing that 'it is not uncommon, at the approach to the thirties, to tear up the life structure one put together to support the original dream of the twenties,'[28] and to start anew—'to create the basis for the next life structure.'[8]
When 'the Age Thirty Transition' is a difficult one, 'in a severe crisis [s/]he experiences a threat to life itself, the danger of chaos and dissolution, the loss of hope for the future.'[29]
After the relative upheaval of the early 30's, the middle to late 30's are often characterized by settling down: 'the establishment phase', involving 'what we would call major life investments—work, family, friends, community activities, and values.'[30] What has been termed 'the Culminating Life Structure for Early Adulthood (33–40) is the vehicle for completing this era and realizing our youthful aspirations.'[8] People in their thirties may increase the financial and emotional investments they make in their lives, and may have been employed long enough to gain promotions and raises. They often become more focused on advancing their careers and gaining stability in their personal lives—'with marriage and child-rearing,'[31] starting a family, coming to the fore as priorities.
Gail Sheehy, however, signposts the same twenties/thirties division rather differently, arguing that nowadays 'the twenties have stretched out into a long Provisional Adulthood', and that in fact 'the transition to the Turbulent Thirties marks the initiation to First Adulthood.'[32]
Young Adulthood then draws to its close with 'the Midlife Transition, from roughly age 40 to 45'[33]—producing 'a brand-new passage in the forties, when the transition from the end of First Adulthood to the beginning of Second Adulthood begins.'[34]
