How to Throw Large Platters No Matter What Your Size
Even though you don't need to pull up high walls with a large platter, large wheel-thrown platters can be challenging, especially if you are small in stature. In today's post, an excerpt from our 2014 Workshop Handbook, Yoko Sekino Bove gives some great tips for throwing large platters.- Jennifer Harnetty, editor.The 30-Minute Teapot
Summer is the time that educators regroup and plan for the upcoming school year. So today, I thought I would share a cool project that would make a great lesson plan. In this post, Yoko Sekino Bove shares her 30-Minute Teapot lesson. The beauty of this lesson plan for teachers is that it can be made in one class period. If you're not a teacher, it's a fun little project to experiment with if you're needing a break from your usual routine. – Jennifer Harnetty, editor.
Ceramics Monthly, May 2011
If you look closely at this year's Emerging Artists, you'll see the creative successes first, and even though the artists themselves intend this, I challenge you to look further than that and look for the hard work. —Sherman Hall, Editor

We wanted a place to stay close to the center of Lisbon. It was very hard to find. Everything booked. At least we found this low-priced family "hotel" located very good with walking distance to Centro, Alto Bairro, Alfama etc. As it is a budget hotel with low rate you can't expect too much. This is not a 5 star... More

text: Scrutiny Sub-Committee for the Sub-Committee for Promoting Strong, Healthy and Safe Communities 2 September 2002 Co-options Report of Head of Overview and Scrutiny Purpose of Report 1. To make progress about Co-options to the Sub-Committee. Background 2. The Constitution provides the opportunity for six non-voting co-opted representatives to be involved in the work of the Sub-Committee. The Overview and Scrutiny Committee is generally charged with the responsibility of seeking to involve the community in its work. The co-option of representatives from the wider community and the development of a dialogue with them should assist in this approach. 3. The Overview and Scrutiny Committee, in July, agreed to approach six organisations to serve on the main Overview and Scrutiny Committee. Those organisations are:- The Durham Association of Parish and Town Councils Voluntary Sector – One Voice TUC North East Chamber of Commerce Strategic Health Authority County Durham Association of Local Authorities 4. The Sub-Committee now needs to consider the bodies it wishes to approach to provide co-opted members. The role of a co-opted member, whilst non-voting, would provide an opportunity to influence the Sub-Committee in its work. A co-opted member would not simply attend Sub-Committee meetings. The aim is to engage in dialogue with co-opted members to seek their views about relevant issues. 5. In addition, observers from political parties and representatives on the Council have been invited to attend meetings of the Sub-Committee. 6. The task of selecting appropriate co-opted members is not an easy one. The breadth of this Sub-Committee is very wide and there are a large number or organisations that could be approached. In particular, the aim will be to provide added value to the work of the Sub-Committee by co-opting a representative. Northumbria University have offered to assist in the search for appropriate co-optees. It is suggested that the Chairman and Vice Chairmen of the Sub-Committee and the Main Committee should be given delegated authority to make suggestions about the bodies to be approached. Recommendation 7. That the Chairmen and Vice Chairmen should be given delegated authority to suggest a list of co-opted members. Contact: Ian Mackenzie Tel: 0191 383 3506

by Dominic Devito JL Audio's PowerWedge enclosed subwoofer systems deliver thunderous bass without needing a lot of power. Each enclosure is designed from the ground up to get optimum performance from its drivers, so you get much more than just a box with a speaker inside. JL Audio uses state-of-the-art automated woodworking equipment to fabricate high-quality MDF enclosures with rugged automotive carpeting, steel-mesh grilles, 5-way binding posts, and solid internal wiring. The enclosures are finished and inspected by hand at the manufacturing facility in Florida to ensure that you get the bass that you expect from JL Audio. The CP108TG-W1v2 Truck PowerWedge handles up to 150 watts RMS, housing one 8" W1v2 subwoofer that offers impressive low end. This specially designed, side-firing ported enclosure fits behind the seats of most pickups. You'll enjoy thick low-frequency response from all of your music with this capable enclosure in your cab.

The advantage to buying an enclosed sub is that the manufacturer made the sub, then designed and built the box as a perfect match, so you'll get the best possible performance. Every enclosed sub has a maximum RMS power handling rating, so pair it with an amp with a similar RMS power rating to get the best performance.
Tight on space but want bass? Written By Mike, Stockton on Saturday, July 23, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I'm getting older now and don't want to give up 1/2 my trunk and have everything rattling so I went for this.This small box is built very well I have it playing threw my arm rest hole it has nice clear bass that sounds great inside the car and right next to it.I would have given it 5 stars if it came with the w3 woofer but you can't have everything if this one blows I'll just replace it with a w3.
It pounds! Written By carbon12.01, VA on Sunday, January 17, 2010 I just recently installed this sub in small SUV. It's powered by a 200W RMS amp. I had considerd a 10" before purchasing, but after listening to this baby... the 8" is plenty sufficient for my bass needs. To put it plainly, it simply pounds! It also takes up little space. Enough said, another great product from JL Audio, very impressed! : )
Excellent bang for the buck Written By Brett, Evansville, IN on Thursday, April 23, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Just installed this in a Ford Econoline with an older Pioneer 200W amp, and I must say i'm impressed. More low end extension than a 10" Sony that I used to have, and a lot more clarity than even the 12" Kicker I have in my car. Highly reccomended for small spaces!

Peep the features
from Jay Z (Ft. Beyoncé, Justin Timberlake, Nas & Swizz Beatz) – BBC Lyrics on Genius
Double Entendre…
- Pharrell has often featured on songs that he's produced. He had a successful career with N.E.R.D. But solo, apart from one single and one album, his entire career is based on appearances in other people's songs.
- Nas is also be asking the listener to acknowledge the high profile guests on this song, definitely an impressive line-up.
Or it's just that his facial features resemble the high, chiselled profile of a pharaoh's face. Ties in with the pharaoh line, he's 40 years old but with the facial features of a 20-something.

The provisional rider-list for the Paris-Roubaix race has been uploaded to the Fantasy Cyclingnews Game site, and the game is ready to play! Pick your teams now! Keep in mind, teams may change overnight, so be sure to check in on Sunday for the final start list.. Don't miss out, enter your teams now and you too could win in tomorrow's Paris-Roubaix.
Remember you don't need to have competed in all the previous races to stand a chance of winning the Spring Classic prize. You can just play for one race to win a pair of BBB glasses.
If you have competed in all the races though here's a quick reminder of what's on offer:
The Grand Prize is a Specialized S-Works Roubaix bicycle in Quick Step - Innergetic colors equipped with Shimano Dura-Ace components and S-Works FACT over-sized carbon cranks and bottom bracket worth $6000 USD! That's not all you could win in this year's Fantasy games. To celebrate our fifth year of Fantasy games the Spring Classics will also be featuring some top runner-up prizes.
Runner-up Prizes
The first runner-up prize this year is a Cycleops Powertap 2.4 (wireless) worth $1499 USD. Cycleops upgraded the world's most accurate, lightest power meter to be the world's first wireless meter, meaning you can easily switch it between bikes.
A pair of BBB's "Winner Team" glasses are on offer for the highest scoring Fantasy team in every Classic. You don't have to take part in all seven races to stand a good chance of winning this prize. The highest score per classic wins a pair of the official sports-glasses of the 2007 Quick-Step Innergetic professional cycling team.
We are proud to announce the continued support from Speedplay in this year's game. We have three sets of Speedplay's Zero stainless steel pedals - the same style of pedal used by ProTour teams such as Team CSC.
We are also pleased to confirm that Descente will be joining the list of runner-up prize sponsors. Produced in conjunction with Team CSC, the Descente Optima Bib Short is the culmination of hundreds of hours of research and testing. Constructed of two different textiles, the main body features Aero-X fabric, a dual-denier Nylon with spandex for great moisture-management, durability, comfort and fit.
Cyclists depend on good nutrition to meet the demands of the sport. That's why Nutra Fig developed the organic Cheetah Bar. It contains the right combination of carbs, protein and fiber to give you long lasting energy, and it is moist and tastes great. Cheetah bars are loaded with potassium, sodium and calcium—all found naturally in the ingredients so no chemical additives are needed. Cheetah Bar is the official energy bar of the Colavita/Sutter Home Pro Cycling Team. We have 10 boxes of Cheetah Bars on offer this year.
The proCOOL Mesh from Scandinavia's leading high-performance clothing company, Craft, is the professional's choice when it comes to base layers. The proCOOL Mesh is a warm weather base layer that combines the latest in fabric technology with Craft's signature fit. Even as temperatures soar, proCOOL keeps you dry and comfortable. For the 2007 Spring Classics Fantasy Game, we have 10 of these great base layers on offer.
In the next few days we will be releasing more details of the prizes on offer this season with 46 prizes available for 18 lucky winners, and some major improvements in the game engine coming soon, now is the time to sign up to the Fantasy Cyclingnews Games.
How to play
Yes, you too can be a professional team manager. Based on the live racing action, you will take up the challenge using your knowledge and tactical skill as a race team manager to compete with fantasy managers from around the world. Remember all you need to do to take part is to register and select eight riders for each of the following races:
Paris - Roubaix, April 15, 2007
Amstel Gold Race, April 21, 2007
La Flèche Wallonne, April 25, 2007
Liège - Bastogne - Liège, April 29, 2007
For more details on how to play go to the rules section of the site for more info. To register your teams for the game, click here.
It's a great way to follow the Spring Classics.
Good luck!
The Fantasy Cyclingnews Team

. . . where do they fit? From what I understand, a "pusher" is a champion who can control their lane well, avoid ganks, etc., but I've never seen this term used anywhere but Riot's official categorization of the champions, and I have no idea how one is supposed to play a pusher in the usual Summoner's Rift metagame. While I have a backlog of about 8 champions I want to buy before I even get into seemingly less-used roles like this one, I'd still like to know something about just what such a character is supposed to do. Thanks in advance for any help.
Senior Member
Pushers usually can be categorized into a different category to fit the meta. Sivir, an AD Carry, is a pusher. Mordekaiser, an AP solo top with the illusion of being tanky, is a pusher. Twisted Fate, an AP Carry, is a pusher. and so on...
If you have a "pusher" mid, zyra, mal, mord. They can clear the wave then you have to deal with the turret possibly taking kills. It also allows them to roam more without fear of the tower being assaulted.

Sinossi editore
"Last week's book 'launch' for "Space Program," a record of the sculptor Tom Sachs's foray into space exploration, was, somewhat fittingly, a mixture of naivete and authenticity. At 192 Books, in Chelsea, hot chocolate was served at the door and the only reserved seat was for Michael Stipe, the lead singer of R.E.M. who once sang about a man on the moon." "The New Yorker" "The book - as the project - is deadpan great. It's a gorgeous book that documents Team Sachs' spacey achievement at Gagosian Gallery." ArtBlog.com"To celebrate Rizzoli's recently published accompanying catalog, Sachs joins Bill Powers and Andy Spade for a panel discussion and signing at New York's 192 Books."

About this project
The Legacy Show is a special show for college bound high school grads and alumni of the School of Rock in Farmingdale, New York. This show is the first of its kind for School of Rock, and we want to make it something special and start an annual tradition. We've all been attending this school for several years, and in that time we have participated in countless shows that have helped us grow as musicians as well as people. It is now our turn to give back to the musical community. It is our time to leave our legacy. This will be our last show together, and we intend to have it make a bigger impact than any regular school of rock show ever has.
Our Performance Legacy: We intend to curate and perform a unique concert on August 18th at Brooklyn Bowl, a venue that is much larger and more professional than anywhere we have ever played before.
Our Video Legacy: We have been filming rehearsals and the process of bringing this show to fruition. We would like to film the performance and create a documentary about the process of creating and performing The Legacy Show - and what it means to leave a legacy.
Our Audio Legacy: We hope to book as much studio time as possible to record songs from our show. In addition to giving us the experience of working in a professional recording studio, we would also be able to capture this moment in our musical lives. In a more functional sense, we would use the recorded material for the documentary soundtrack.
Our Physical Legacy: We intend to build a physical art object that represents our collective and individual experiences and personalities. We want to install this piece of artwork in our school to help inspire future generations.
In order to accomplish some, or hopefully, all of our legacies - we need your help. There are costs involved with the rental of the venue, recording studios, video equipment, and art supplies - much more than what we're asking. We can only make a legacy as big as the kickstart we get. With your kind contribution, we can get our dreams closer to a reality; even if we just meet our goal, we will be able to truly leave a legacy that will inspire generations of music students to come.
Thank You,
Jon, Tom, Colin, Russell, Bobby, Robbie, Dylan, Tim, Ajay, and Jay
note: This Kickstarter is independent of the School of Rock corporation. It has been started by graduating students and alumni to help illustrate the importance of arts and music education.

Is it farther or further?
in ancient Rome, a magistracy of two men. Duoviri perduellionis were two judges, selected by the chief magistrate, who tried cases of crime against the state. Duoviri navales, at first appointed but later popularly elected (311-178 BC), had charge of a fleet. The two chief magistrates of the colonies and municipia (i.e., communities under Roman domination) were often called duoviri jure dicundo.

(This post is part of Frequency's coverage of the best music of the past decade. You can see all of that coverage in one place by clicking here. And be sure to check out "Near/Far," our free, legal, downloadable MP3 compilation of the best music of 2009, by clicking here.)
As part of Frequency's ongoing coverage of music in the first 10 years of the 21st century, I've asked a few folks close to the local scene to reflect on the past decade in whatever way they see fit. Today, we have something from the mighty mind and pen of David Clemmer, lead singer and songwriter of local indie-rock band The Dirty Words and a former employee of the now defunct Boomtown Records in downtown Bend.
I know that David is an avid music fan, and he makes some interesting points here, so make sure to click below to read the whole thing. Whether you agree or disagree with him, I hope you'll leave your own thoughts in the comments.
A Game of Stars
To describe this past decade in music, one would have to appropriate the first run-on sentence in "A Tale of Two Cities." Best, worst, wisdom, foolishness, belief, incredulity, Light, Darkness, hope, despair, et cetera, ad infinitum. Then you have to factor in mathematics: When you take two equal extremes on either side of the positive-negative spectrum and add them together, you get zero.
In this case: ennui.
There are many possible reasons for this, I think.
What we saw in this quote-unquote "dawn" of a digital age could be seen as an amazing innovation, or could be seen as an incomparable rate of music being distributed for cheap or free directly to our homes without having us leave our chairs. The havoc wreaked on our attention spans is insurmountable. Quantity overpowering quality in the field of subjective and diverse creativity is a dangerous numbing agent.
A result is a cesspool of music fans who can't find solid ground on their own beliefs. The word overrated — a word that I abhor more than that feeling you get when you pour a bowl of cereal and realize you have no milk — becomes the standard term of disapproval. (There is a tangent on which I could expound with great fervor, fraught with criticisms of our use of the English language and logical fallacies, but I shall spare you.)
Opinions change like local weather patterns. Hype factors can sway someone's tastes. Everything is subject to judgment ere the cracking of its metaphorical cover.
Why is this? Has the music industry's prolific output destroyed our ability to enjoy something simple? Because we can log in to last.fm or Pandora and listen to anything at anytime, anywhere, without the disincentive of forking over our dwindling finances? How much music have we heard that, ten or fifteen years ago, would have astounded us? I'm not saying that digital distribution is the sole offender for our desensitization. There's a more positive possible reason.
Perhaps quantity is not the issue in tandem with quality, and that quality itself is the reason for our blank stares and upturned noses.
Finite gems have been given to us: Radiohead's "Kid A," anything Sigur Ros has ever done, Godspeed You! Black Emperor's "Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven," Arcade Fire's "Funeral" … and in turn, we look at everything else and say, "Well you're not like these amazing things, so I'm not impressed."
Take Radiohead's releases of the decade. I look at user reviews on music websites. The common denominator for "Hail to the Thief" and "In Rainbows" is, "Meh, it was alright, but it's not 'Kid A.'"
My argumentative M.O. compels me to respond, "Of course it's not f@#$ing 'Kid A.' That's why they're called 'Hail to the Thief' and 'In Rainbows.'" This, followed by some Shakespearean denigration of their character.
The exhibits I have placed before you are intertwined. We are so amazed by all these terrific things that are few and far between in a constant and powerful influx of mediocrity, that when something simply good comes along, it gets no recognition. Or to be fair, not as much recognition as it deserves.
Number Six on my 2000s Top Ten list (below) is an album called "Hello, Dear Wind" by a group called Page France. Soft, melodious, simple, a thorough involvement of the first-fourth folk progression, a positive and wondrous outlook on these windy times. In my opinion, comparable to the ever-popular indie-folk hit "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" (by Neutral Milk Hotel) in its aforementioned softness, melodiousness, and simplicity.
People don't know about it. Maybe "Hello, Dear Wind" was ten years too late to rest on our hearts, because to me, it's a cherished and wonderful indie-folk treasure.
There's a fatalist sense of doom that I've noticed in the writings and ramblings of music fans: a generic feeling that something is over and can never be revived. These sentiments are ignited by the reasons I've mentioned, as well as the obvious and ubiquitous opinion that the Top 40 of today are reprehensible tokens of baseless filth. Where can music go, now that all art seems to have disappeared from the art form? Where can it go, now that all the quality rests in the esoteric and the old and the unapproachable?
"Good night to the rock and roll era, we don't need you anymore."
–Pavement, "Fillmore Jive"I disagree.
There's more than these stars and decimals you pin to these albums and artists, your statistics, your opinions and T-shirts. What you're dealing with is someone's art, someone's reason for existing, someone's lists of things they want you to know as a person they never will meet. This is how they meet you more than it is how you meet them. These are expressions.
Yes, some expressions are for the wrong reasons; some expressions are expressions you don't agree with; some expressions are not as powerful as others; some expressions are things you have every right never to listen to again.
But they are worth your subjectivity. They are worth your emotion, to love, to despise. And they are worth their continuance. Our continuance. Things are not over in the music world. Something that began in prehistory is invulnerable to total death, as long as we can still appreciate it. As long as we can still hear it.
It's the best of times.

US 5234592 A Abstract An improved filter for pressurized painting equipment formed of a cylindrical filter element and carried in a cylindrical housing and base having an inlet and an outlet. The filter element has solid end caps and is made up of one or two layers of wire mesh and is supported by a helical spring interior of the wire mesh.
Claims(13) 1. A improved filter apparatus for pressurized painting systems comprising:
a) a base having an inlet, an outlet and a threaded filter mounting bore therein; b) a cylindrical filter housing threadably received in the base; and c) a filter element formed of a single radial layer of woven wire mesh screen in the shape of a right circular cylinder free of corrugations and defining an exterior surface and an interior surface wherein the base inlet is in communication with the exterior surface of the filter element and the base outlet is in communication with the interior surface of the filter element such that particulates carried by a fluid from the inlet towards the outlet will be retained on the exterior surface of the filter element. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the cylindrical filter further comprises a corrugation-free support means interior of and in substantially continuous contact with the cylindrical mesh element for preventing radially inward collapse of said cylindrical mesh element while operating at relatively high pressure.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the cylindrical mesh element is a 20 mesh sieve.
4. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein the mesh size of the cylindrical mesh element is in the range of 20 to 200 mesh.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the cylindrical mesh element compromises a single layer.
6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the cylindrical mesh element comprises two separate, adjacent and concentric layers of woven wire mesh screens in substantially continuous contact with each other and wherein the two layers comprise an outer layer and an inner layer, with the outer layer having a mesh size of finer openings than the inner layer such that the inner layer provides support for the outer layer.
7. The apparatus of claim 6 wherein the inner layer comprises a 24 mesh layer and the outer layer comprises a mesh size in the range of 50 to 200 mesh.
8. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the unitary base further comprises a plurality of outlet ports each located downstream of the filter element.
9. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a seal between filter housing and the base.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 wherein the seal comprises an O-ring.
11. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the filter element further comprises an end cap at each end of the right circular cylinder woven wire mesh.
12. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the end caps are formed of stainless steel.
13. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the filter element is formed of stainless steel mesh.
Description This invention relates to the field of pressurized painting equipment, more particularly to an improved cylindrical filter design useful in paint spraying equipment operating at relatively high pressures and high flow rates. In the past, there has been a need to provide for filtering particulates from a paint supply line in pressurized painting equipment. Prior art filters have suffered from various deficiencies including having relatively coarse cylindrical filter elements, permitting relatively large particles to pass through the element. Also some prior art filters were designed such that the inlet side of the cylindrical element was interior of the element, thus trapping particles within the cylindrical element, making it more difficult to clean. The present invention overcomes deficiencies of the prior art by providing an improved cylindrical filter which has the inlet side exterior of a cylindrical element resulting in ease of cleaning and further has a relatively fine mesh or sieve element to provide for better filtration. Support means are also provided to prevent buckling of the improved cylindrical element. FIG. 1 shows partially cut away side elevation view of a prior art filter apparatus. FIG. 2 is a section view of a prior art filter element. FIG. 3 shows a partially cut away side elevation view of the improved filter apparatus of the present invention. FIG. 4 shows a fragmentary partially cut away side elevation view of an alternative embodiment of the filter element of the improved filter apparatus. FIG. 5 shows a top view of the improved filter apparatus. FIG. 6 shows a top view of a filter base of the improved filter apparatus. FIG. 7 shows a partial section view looking up showing internal inlet and outlet passageways of the base of the improved filter apparatus. Referring now to FIGS. 1 and 2, a prior art filter apparatus 10 may be seen. In such a prior art filter apparatus 10, a cylindrical filter element 12 is utilized to block particles entering at inlet 20 from progressing through the remainder of the painting equipment, typically a paint spray gun (not shown) connected to the filter base outlet 22 via a flexible hose (also not shown). Element 12 is preferably retained in a cylindrical housing 14. Housing 14 is threadedly received in a base 16. Base 16 has an inlet port 17 receiving a right angle fitting 20 and in communication with the interior 23 of element 12. One or more outlet ports 22 in base 16 are in communication with the exterior 26 of element 12. Element 12 has exterior annular recesses 25, through holes 27, and axial grooves 29 through and along which paint can flow to traverse element 12. Referring now to FIGS. 3 and 4, the improved filter of the present invention includes a base 18 as part of an apparatus 30 which includes a cylindrical filter assembly 32 carried in a filter housing 34. Filter assembly 32 preferably includes a cylindrical filter element 38 supported by a helical spring 40. Housing 34 is preferably secured to base 18 by interengaging threads 52 and sealed to base 18 by an O-ring 42 or other conventional seal. It is to be understood that various mesh filter elements may be used in the practice of the present invention to remove particulates from the paint supply line which particulates could otherwise plug metering orifices in a spray gun (not shown) connected to the apparatus 30. In FIG. 3 a single layer element 38 is shown, which preferably is a 20 mesh or sieve size. In FIG. 4, element 38 is preferably a 24 mesh element provided to support a finer mesh element layer 39. Layer 39 may be a 50, 100, 200 or other mesh or sieve size to filter finer particulates, as desired. Referring now also to FIGS. 5-7, features of base 18 relating to apparatus 30 may be seen in more detail. Referring first most particularly to FIGS. 5 and 6, a top view of base 18 may be seen with and without housing 34 and element 38 present. Referring now also to FIG. 7, base 18 preferably has an inlet port or aperture 58 therein. A first bore 60 extends from inlet port 58 in a first surface 56 into base 18 to a pair of bores 78, 80 transverse to bore 60. Base 18 also preferably has a top face 72 having a filter aperture or filter mounting port 74 therein. A filter mounting bore 76 extends from aperture 74 in top face 72 into base 18 transverse to the first bore 60. Base 18 also preferably has a face 82 having a paint outlet port or aperture 84 therein. In FIG. 5 an outlet fitting 28 is shown received in outlet port 84. Base 18 may also preferably have further outlet ports 94 and 98. Each of outlet ports 94, 98 respectively have bores 100, 102 communicating with an extension 81 of filter mounting bore 76. Referring now to FIGS. 3, 6 and 7, a fluid such as paint enters apparatus 30 through fitting 20 via inlet port 58, flows through bore 60, and then passes through channels 78, 80 where it enters a cylindrical annular region 106 exterior and upstream of filter element 38. Paint passes through filter element 38 radially inwardly from the upstream side of filter 38 to the downstream side of filter 38 formed by cylindrical region 108. The downstream side of filter 38 is in communication with extension 81 allowing paint to be delivered to the paint outlet port 84 and then through fitting 28 via bore 83. Referring again to FIGS. 3 and 4, filter assembly 32 preferably includes a pair of end caps 110, 112 of stainless steel material. Each end cap 110, 112 is formed or crimped on element 38 (and layer 39 if used) to provide a rigid, well-defined right circular cylinder end profile at each end of element 38. The wire screens or meshes 38, 39 are also preferably made of stainless steel. The filter housing 34 and base 18 are preferably nickel-plated steel. Filter element 38 is able to be inspected, cleaned and replaced if necessary by removal of filter housing 34 from base 18. Slot 46 and flats 48, 50 are provided in housing 34 to enable housing 34 to be rotated via application of a suitable tool such as a bar or wrench (not shown) to disengage threads 52 holding housing 34 to base 18. Such removal of housing 18 makes element 38 immediately accessible and removable from apparatus 30. The invention is not to be taken as limited to all of the details thereof as modifications and variations thereof may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention.

Carlson, Dorothy S. DEd, RN; Pfadt, Ellen MSN, RN
Associate Professors Edinboro University Edinboro, Pa.
MADELINE MARTIN, 50, arrives at the ED complaining of intermittent nausea and crampy, midabdominal pain. She states that her pain seems to occur in cycles, and that she's relatively comfortable between the pain episodes. She rates her current pain intensity as a 6 on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). While you perform a focused physical assessment, she vomits a large amount of fluid; the vomitus contains bile and mucus. You also note abdominal distension and hyperactive bowel sounds. Her oral temperature is 99° F (37.2° C); pulse, 118; respirations, 28; BP, 112/70; and SpO2, 95% on room air.
Two weeks ago, Ms. Martin had an abdominal hysterectomy for uterine fibroids. Her medical history includes hypertension, obesity, and dyslipidemia, and her postoperative course was uneventful until now. You notify the ED physician and her surgeon of your assessment findings, and administer analgesia and an antiemetic as prescribed.
Based on your assessment findings and Ms. Martin's history, you suspect a postoperative intestinal obstruction.
In 75% of patients, acute intestinal obstruction is caused by adhesions or internal or external hernias secondary to recent abdominal surgery. About 25% of these patients develop intestinal obstruction within a few weeks postoperatively. Of those patients, 10% to 50% need surgery.
Complications of acute intestinal obstruction include electrolyte depletion and fluid losses, which can lead to hypovolemia, renal insufficiency, and shock. Strangulation, an especially dangerous complication, is a surgical emergency. A strangulated obstruction impairs blood supply to the bowel and causes ischemia, which can progress to gangrene. Perforation of the bowel, another potential complication, can lead to peritonitis and sepsis.
Provide supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula as prescribed, initiate cardiac monitoring, obtain peripheral vascular access, and infuse an isotonic crystalloid such as 0.9% sodium chloride solution or lactated Ringer's solution, as prescribed. Keep Ms. Martin N.P.O. and insert a nasogastric tube for decompression, as prescribed. Obtain specimens for a complete blood cell (CBC) count; comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP) including serum electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, glucose, amylase, and liver function tests; type and crossmatch; and urinalysis.
A 12-lead ECG shows sinus tachycardia without evidence of myocardial ischemia. The CBC count is within normal limits, but the CMP results indicate dehydration, which is treated with I.V. fluids, and hypokalemia, which is treated with I.V. potassium supplementation. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen demonstrates a partial small-bowel obstruction.
The surgeon opts for a trial of nonoperative management and you prepare Ms. Martin for admission to a medical-surgical unit for continued monitoring, fluid and electrolyte replacement, and bowel rest.
Ms. Martin's obstruction responds to medical treatment and resolves within 72 hours. The remainder of her hospital stay is uneventful, and she's discharged home with surgical follow-up.

A Canadian ProseA Canadian Prose11 years ago in Scraps More Like This
Greetings friends and fellow Canadians on the day we celebrate our unity and the making of this great country! This is my prose about CANADIANS!
A brief overview of our history
Canada had many famous explorers visit her land; Sameul de Champlain, Jacques Cartier, John Cabot and so on... Canada was just a French colony (the later a British) at first, and the USA a British coloy. Well to befrank, a bunch of crap happened that all you canadians learned in history class and I'm sure you dont want to hear it again. As for you Americans, I can safely say that you don't learn any of our history but if you wish to know, look it up. Welll sooner or later the american revolution came about and the USA said "hey, NS wanna join us??" and NS said "screw you, we've got a huge British Naval base in Halifax, we'll get our asses kicked if we do! Plus we have good trade with them!" and the Americans said " hey NFLD!" and NFLD said "we won't e

That sucks will just put in a good movie... I got my my "prize" in the mail today. I comment on Craft Donkey, blog about her new room and she picked me as one of her winners. I got some cool little things from a company called "Maya Road" I thought that was cool I won my first probably only giveaway. Might do some more layouts tonight. Since I got my order from Joann(dot)come yesterday. All of my items came good shape and fast too. I might share my prize in a video and show picture of it and posted on my blog.

DARLA!! Just sayin' hi
Hope you're out doing something fun and drinking something alcoholic!
Kory, I don't think you're the only one to have problems with that fiskars trimmer with the wire because Michael's had them on clearance today. It was a set with a craft knife and some precision scissors. Normally $40 (so they say), it was cleared out for $14.99. Only on the sticker you couldn't really see the 1 so I talked them into 4.99. I don't even really need another trimmer but I figured for $5 it was good to have a backup. And I can always use some good precision scissors
That's one good thing about my M's here. If the price tag kinda sorta looks like something else, they just do an override no questions asked. The cashier tonight said "well if they don't want to buy more ink for our price guns, I guess they can't complain when we do an override now can they?" I loved it. That's also how I got a few DCWV stacks for 99 cents a few months back. Now THAT was a clearance! It was supposed to be 9.99 but the first 9 didn't show up at all.
Sheryl, so sorry to hear you're still not feeling well
Judy, hope you're sleeping well.
Speaking of sleep, I couldn't at all last night. I think I finally fell asleep about the same time that Kory woke up. I should have tried to work on a layout since I was wide awake anyway but instead I read a book. Like, the whole book. And then I slept until 11:30. I doubt I'll be able to sleep tonight since I slept so late so hopefully I can get a layout done. I think I'm the worlds slowest scrapper.

I got a DCWV paper stack for 9.99 from my Joann order. It the Heirloom Stack I really like it glad I order it. Because I'm in the process of doing heritage albums. I saw couple of ladies do some layouts and I liked the paper just decided to get the pack. I think I have enough to last me a while. But like some ladies told me on here. Once you keep on buying paper you can't stop. I guess she right about that, lol.

Hey, y'all, thanks everyone for all the kind birthday wishes! I had a really fun time with my friend Becky at the card party and a lovely dinner with my dad, what a treat to have him all to myself 2 nights in a row! So it's my sister's loss, not mine. But if I had known earlier, I would have made different plans and we could have all gotten together and had a shopping spree. Oh, well, we will do it, one of these days we will get everyone feeling better and not working as much and hit a true payday shopping trip!
I'm in for the night now, gonna go snuggle with my pup and try to find a movie or something on tv. Y'all have a great night!

Hope you're feeling better soon, Sheryl!
I got to sleep around 2am last night but my dog woke me up at 7am to go out.....couldn't get back to sleep...until after dinner, when I fell asleep on the couch, dangit! Now, I'm probably going to be up late again.....ARGHHHH!
I did get a layout done tonight. I haven't done many of them lately because I've been so busy with my son, going to hospital appointments for his foot and taking my mom to chemo.....
Hopefully, I'll get to do some more tomorrow cause it really decompresses me....I feel way better about everything after a little art therapy!

Hello! Hello! Thank you! Thank you! No! I love YOU!
Wow! It's so great to be playing the big room, again! Thank you, thank you- I'm so happy to be back!
It's been a few years since I graced the legit stage, so let me take a moment to thank all of you- all of you there at the bottom, that provided a semi-comfortable ramp to THE TOP! Well, if you consider The PayDay Friday Showroom to be 'THE TOP!' No- no- calm down, Darla. I'm not talking about men. I'll let you know- please, sit down. You have a cue coming up. Ladies and gentlemen- Darla ChocolateAxel, my friend and accompanist.
Let's bring it down a notch. For my first number, I'd like to sing...

Wowie Zowie!! I havent been on for SOOOOOO LOOOOONNNNGGG!! I had to read Days and Days of comments!! I hope everyone is feeling well and is happy!! It must be a full moon!
We have been moving house the past two wks...what a slow process! Gotta be out by the 31st, and don't have enough help! We have been taking SUV loads of stuff over, but you can only fit so much in at a time. Plus my brothers stuff was not totally out until today. Ok, not totally, but mostly. I can handle a few errant items. The dining room, Living room, Juanies bed room, Kitchen and bath are all painted...The Playroom, tha's what I named my craft room, in the basement is pretty much empty, and we have started moving my craft stuff in. Joaquin waxed all the wood floors...they sparkle! I started filling kitchen cabinets and putting my pretties out...a pink kitchen is so happy!! I love how it is looking! Hopefully tomorrow we move beds and other large furniture, as we will be having some snow Monday, then rainy weather. I can always come back to finish up small stuff and clean. I have been taking pics, so will post them for all to see!
At some point, we will not have internet service until I get them to come out...hopefully not for too long! I gotta stay connected! Maybe there is some neighbor with wifi I can steal. HAHA! Maybe without internet I can get some scrapping done!
Well, since January is almost over, just think...in 2 short months, it will be april!! yay spring!

Juansmom, ladies and gentleman! Let's hear it for her!
I know what you mean about a pink kitchen. I've longed for a pink kitchen, for years, as my favorite breakfeast beverage, Pepto Bismol, would perfectly coordinate.
However, I don't know why you're so excited about Spring. When I think of Spring, I think of allergies. And of my greatest hit of 1991....

Yesterday I sneezed so hard I hurt my ribs!!

Chris, my DD moved from Syracuse to Tampa in April. I noticed where she was temp was -1. Where she is now is 74. She's smiling all the time. But her allergies are already kicking in she said trees are starting to bloom.
Spring makes me think of allergies too, but fall is actually worse for me.
In '91, I'm sure Kory was just a young wild little kory. Living it up. In '91, I'm already old with 2 little kidos.

Good morning, All!
I have to tell y'all, yesterday absolutely broke my heart.
The Hubs was hurting pretty bad when he got up, and took his meds before we headed out to our niece's birthday party. They only live about 7 or 8 miles away, but he was ready to cry from sitting in the truck on the way over. He laid in their floor, paced, sat, stood ... he just couldn't get comfortable. And several family members were telling him "just put some ice on it, you'll be fine" or "maybe if you lose weight, it'll fix itself" or "my chiropractor ..." It was like no one realized HOW BAD this was. Even after explaining that his entire nerve bundle is being compressed against his spine, people were like "oh yeah, I had that and a couple of Aleve helped me." UGH!!! It was soooo frustrating!! I could see him hurting, and I just felt helpless to make it better. I got him out of there - he had to ride back stretched out on the backseat (LOL), home and on the couch again.
Since his birthday is next week, and we've had so many issues lately not being able to count on our so-called friends, we just put it on FB that we'd be celebrating at Dave & Busters last night. Whoever wanted to come was welcome. Neither one of us expected anyone to show up, especially after the two couples we usually hang out with each had a sick hubby.
We drove across town, with Hubs in agony by the time we got there, and it was a cluster! People packed in like cattle, kids and teenagers running all over ... it made me claustrophobic just walking in the door. And the wait for a table was over an hour! I never imagined it would be THAT busy! Hubs was already feeling defeated and down, and didn't think he could just stand around for that long, and said he just wanted to go home. I felt horrible for him. We texted a few of his buddies that we knew were coming and told them we'd do it another time. I asked if he wanted to go eat somewhere else since we had already gotten dressed up and were hungry, and he chose a steakhouse that we really like. Poor guy tried to disguise his pain the whole time, but he couldn't get comfortable in the booth either. He got up to walk around a couple of times, he tried putting our jackets behind him as a pillow, he tried leaning to one side or the other ... it was seriously breaking my heart to see him that way. I'd never, ever seen him like that. Luckily, his steak was absolutely delicious, and everything else too.
I told him on the way home how much it was hurting me to see him that way, and not be able to help him. He said it was harder for him knowing that it was upsetting to me, and unless he asked for help, to just act like normal. So I said "OK then, suck it up, cupcake!" which at least got a good laugh out of him!
I am really hoping they can do the surgery next Monday, the 4th. I don't know how he will manage another week, but we'll get through it. He even said last night that he wasn't in this much pain when they did his first surgery 4 years ago. I am really looking forward to him feeling better!!!
Sorry for the long post, but I know most of you are going through your own medical ordeals with yourselves or family and can relate to the heartache. It's nice knowing there is so much support here.
Have a great Sunday!

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Farm Service Agency's (FSA) efforts to conduct farm programs in an equitable manner, focusing on: (1) FSA efforts to treat minority farmers in the same way as nonminority farmers in delivering program services; (2) minority representation in county office staffing and on county committees in the counties with the highest numbers of minority farmers; and (3) the disposition of minority and nonminority farmers' applications for participation in the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP) and the direct loan program at the national level and in five county and five district loan offices.
GAO found that: (1) FSA's Civil Rights and Small Business Development staff oversees the agency's efforts to achieve equitable treatment for minority farmers; (2) in fiscal years 1995 and 1996, the staff closed 28 complaints of discrimination against farmers on the basis of race or national origin, and found discriminatory practices in 2 of the 28 cases; (3) in addition, as part of its routine assessments of FSA's overall operations in 13 states, the staff assessed the performance of the agency's employees in treating all farmers equitably, but none of the evaluations found that minority farmers were being treated unfairly; (4) the staff has also trained about one-half of FSA'S employees in equal employment opportunity and civil rights matters and expects to finish training all of the employees by the end of 1997; (5) in July 1996, FSA created an outreach office to increase minority farmers' participation in, and knowledge of, the Department's agricultural programs; (6) at the time of GAO's review, 32 percent of FSA's employees serving the 101 counties with the highest numbers of minority farmers were members of a minority group; (7) about 90 percent of these employees were county executive directors or program assistants involved in conducting and managing FSA programs; (8) minority farmers make up about 17 percent of the farmer population in these counties; (9) at the national level, FSA data show that applications for the ACP in fiscal year 1995 and for the direct loan program from October 1994 through March 1996 were disapproved at a higher rate for minority farmers than for nonminority farmers; (10) three of the five county offices GAO visited had higher disapproval rates for minority farmers than for nonminority farmers applying to the ACP, and three of the five district loan offices GAO visited had higher disapproval rates for minority farmers than for other farmers applying for the direct loan program; and (11) GAO's review of the information in the application files in these offices showed that decisions to approve or disapprove applications were supported by information in the files and that decision-making criteria appeared to be applied to minority and nonminority applicants in a similar fashion.
