* Prices may differ from that shown
This is our second iron of the year unfortunately - the first one was prematurely ruined by picking up black marks from our ironing board and unfortunately became unusable only after a couple of months. We recently purchased a different one, being this Morphy Richards one, as a replacement because it was very cheap, at £15 in Tesco. It comes in two colours, purple (shown here) and pink which is the one we have. It is a steam iron, which I find very useful for ironing things straight from the tumble dryer but doesn't come with many other features. As a person who hates ironing, this one was perfect for my needs!
The iron is similar sized to other irons we've owned, being around 27cm high, 15cm wide and 13cm deep. It is quite weighty to pick up, but I've never found this to be a huge problem and I feel that it helps it stand properly on the board when not in use. It's doesn't feel weighty enough to me to be an issue to use when lying flat and moving across clothes. To use the steam feature, the iron is filled at the back via a small hinged opening - a small jug is provided in the box too to help with this process and that's very handy to have because it would be impossible to fill from the tap directly due to it's small opening.
Then, it's just a case of plugging the iron in and switching it on. There's an orange light under the handle that indicates when it's ready to go. The cable is an acceptable length - it's not overly long but it's not really short - just right to use as long as place the board quite close to a socket. It would have been more of an issue to me if it was longer as I feel it would just get in the way when ironing. The plate to the iron isn't anything special, it's classed as non stick and I think that claim is correct. I like the feel of the plate gliding over our clothes. I usually just turn it up to the higher settings when in use on anything apart from very delicate items and I've never found it to stick or feel as though it will stick - the plate moves across all of our clothes at ease.
I also find that the steam spray is more than adequate. There are two buttons on the top of the iron that can be pressed to operate the spray and the the steam options. There's even an option to amend the size of the steam that is created by pushing a setting up and down accordingly although I usually just leave ours on one of the middle settings. I don't use the steam one all that often really, but I do find that the spray one is very handy, especially when ironing something that is full of creases. A couple of sprays from the button and enough water is provided to ensure that the creases are easily ironed out - it really makes a hard task much easier.
The temperature of the iron is determined by a dial as with most irons, situated underneath the large handle. This is my only small issue - it's very difficult to know which setting has been chosen on there as there's no clear line or mark on the iron that indicates to the user the setting that's been opted for. I'm lazy in a way as I tend to just keep mine on the same higher setting as most of our items are made of similar cotton materials but I think if this iron was used for a range of items as in most households, I think the dial may become a bit of a pain. Whenever I do change the setting, I have to be very careful with it and have to study underneath the handle to make sure that it's set correctly. The only thing to indicate the setting chosen is a small piece of plastic that is exactly the same colour as the iron itself so it's not very noticeable on the eye! The dial does help a little bit with actually choosing the setting though as it's settings are labelled for the various clothing materials as well as by temperature eg cotton, linen and silk.
This is a basic iron - if you're used to using ones with features and gadgets then this is perhaps not for you. If however you're just after an iron to get the job done quickly that's easy to use without fancy extras, then I would definitely recommend this one. I'm really glad that we chose this as the replacement as for £15 I think we've received great value for money. I would have no hesitation in picking up the same one again in the future. As long as I keep it off the board stand (so it doesn't come to the same unhappy ending as the last iron!) I see no reason why this iron won't be in our house for some time. I've rated four stars with one being removed for the need of a better setting marker for the dial but apart from that, it's all good.
Thanks for reading :o)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas was a 22,283-acre (90.18 km2) Mexican land grant in present day Santa Clara County, California given in 1834 by Governor José Figueroa to Carlos Antonio Castro.[1] The grant extended along Llagas Creek from about one mile south of present day Morgan Hill to about one mile north of Gilroy, and included present day San Martin.[2][3][4]
Carlos Antonio Castro (b.1775) was the son of Joaquin Ysidro de Castro and Maria Marina Botiller, who had come to California from Mexico with the De Anza Expedition in 1775. Carlos' brother, José Mariano Castro (1765–1828) was the grantee of Rancho Las Animas; his brother José Joaquín Castro (1768–1838) was the grantee of Rancho San Andrés; and his brother Francisco María Castro (1775 - 1831) was the grantee of Rancho San Pablo. Carlos Antonio Castro married María de Rosario García (b.1779) in 1805. Their son Guillermo Castro was the grantee of Rancho San Lorenzo. In 1812, Carlos Castro was mayor domo of Mission Santa Cruz, and received the six square league Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas grant in 1834.
In 1848, the heirs of Carlos Castro sold Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas to Martin Murphy's sons Daniel and Bernard. Martin Murphy had brought his family to California with the Stephens-Townsend-Murphy Party in 1844. Martin Murphy purchased Rancho Ojo del Agua de la Coche to the north of Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas in 1846.
With the cession of California to the United States following the Mexican-American War, the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo provided that the land grants would be honored. As required by the Land Act of 1851, a claim for Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1852,[5] and the grant was patented to Daniel and Bernard Murphy (later joined by James and Martin J. C. Murphy) in 1868.[6]
In 1851, Daniel Murphy married Mary Fisher, daughter of neighbor William Fisher, owner of Rancho Laguna Seca. When Daniel Murphy died in 1882, his daughter Diana and son Daniel Jr. inherited the land grant. Daniel Murphy Jr. sold his land on Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas in 1892 to real estate developer Chauncey Hatch Phillips.
Bernard Murphy purchased Rancho La Polka on the east boundary of Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas and Rancho Las Uvas on the western boundary of Rancho Ojo de Agua de la Coche. Bernard Murphy married Catherine O'Toole (b.1828). Bernard Murphy was killed in the explosion of the steamboat "Jenny Lind" en route from Alviso to San Francisco on April 11, 1853, and his wife Catherine inherited the land. In 1862, Catherine O'Toole Murphy married James Dunne of Rancho Bolsa de San Felipe who died in 1874.[7] In 1893, a portion of Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas, also known as the Dunne Ranch, owned by Catherine Murphy Dunne, was subdivided and the settlement of Rucker was created. Catherine's daughter, Mary Phileta Dunne, married Joseph H. Rucker.

Renal & Urology News: Coping with ICD-10
By now we've all heard about the changes ICD-10 will make in the industry, including making the leap from 14,000 codes to 69,000. AAPC's ICD-10 VP of education and training, Rhonda Buckholtz, CPC, CPMA, CPC-I was recently interviewed for an ICD-10 article in Renal & Urology News.
With all the news around ICD-10 centered on possibly delays, Buckholtz highly recommends staying the course. "We don't know when it will be – it could be months or a year," she said. "We are in a waiting game right now, so one of the things that we have been telling everyone is that if you have begun preparing, you shouldn't stop."

Happy Holidays!!!
I know there is a thread of this somewhere (so please merge if there is still one around lol) Otherwise because of the fact that the holidays be it Easter, to New years why not have one thread for it to keep it all intact and easy to find? Thats up to all of you.
Also because you find that there are certain Holidays that one or another do or don't celebrate, or due to faiths start on certain days. Hopefully this helps with all that!

Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar is a triple vinyl album featuring live material recorded by Frank Zappa between February 1977 and December 1980. The final track, "Canard du Jour", is a duet with Frank Zappa on electric bouzouki and Jean-Luc Ponty on baritone violin dating from a 1972 studio session.
The album was released in 1981 and reissued by Rykodisc on CD in 1986 as a two disc set and again in 1995 as a three disc box. There is a widely held belief that the order of the tracks "Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar" and "Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar Some More" were swapped on the two disc set, however this is not true. The source of the confusion may be the back cover of the 2-CD set, which lists the two tracks as swapped. The inside booklet, however, lists the tracks in correct order, and the actual track timings and contents confirm that "Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar" (5:38) is on disc 1 and "Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar Some More" (6:53) is on disc 2.
The album is entirely instrumental and features mainly guitar solos, hence the title. It is, however, interspersed with brief verbal comments between tracks, many of which also appear on Läther, as was originally intended. Each disc is titled after a variation on the album's name, which is shared with the title track found on each respective disc.
Most solos on the album are culled from performances of another song. The three title tracks are derived from successive renditions of "Inca Roads"; various other solos were taken from readings of ...

CBS, Turner Sports Set To Enter New Era Of NCAA Tourney Coverage
Published March 9, 2011
CHECK YOUR LOCAL LISTINGS: In Salt Lake City, Scott Pierce notes there will be "some negotiation" between CBS and Turner "about which channel gets which games." But "most of that will be decided by a team's seeding and bracket placement." CBS announcer Jim Nantz: "You really don't know how you're going to network the games until the brackets come out." Nantz added, "It's a new world out there because of this partnership (with Turner). Every game's going to be national. So it's a different equation than it was in years past" (SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, 3/9). McManus said that the networks will "cut in for some buzzer beaters, but they won't all be live so as not to sacrifice the national feed." Much of the "look-ins at games going on elsewhere will happen at halftime, and scores at the top of the screen will keep viewers updated with the games on the three other nets" (BROADCASTINGCABLE.com, 3/9). Meanwhile, in Milwaukee, Bob Wolfley noted truTV is "not available in HD in many markets." Levy said, "I would like to see all of truTV be in high def, and we are working diligently as we speak today with our cable operators, telco companies and our satellite distributors, trying to figure out ways to make sure our consumers can get high def games when they want them where they want them. ... They are all available in HD. The question is whether the cable operator or distributor wants to carry it" (JSONLINE.com, 3/8).
HOLDING COURT: TNT NBA studio analyst Charles Barkley, who will work the NCAA tournament for the first time this year, yesterday "promised to cover more than just brackets and buzzer-beaters." Barkley: "I'm going to talk about the games, but when I met with the NCAA, I said, 'At some point, we are going to have to talk about graduation rates on these damn games.' ... We just gave these damn people $11 billion. They're not paying the players. I'm not going to go on a rant about where the money goes, but they have an obligation to graduate these players" (NEWSDAY, 3/9). NCAA Senior VP/Basketball & Business Strategies Greg Shaheen said Barkley's comments are "representative of the many issues in the environment of basketball we're all trying to address." Shaheen: "It's a great opportunity for him to comment on those topics." The AP's Rachel Cohen noted Barkley is "still figuring out how and when to best get his message out on the air." He "doesn't want to be a 'downer' and intends to embrace the happier aspects of his new job." Barkley: "I've got to wait for the appropriate time. I can't start out March Madness on Thursday saying, 'These graduation rates suck.' That wouldn't be appropriate." When asked if it would be "appropriate to call out individual schools for low graduation rates," Barkley said, "I don't ever want to embarrass anybody, but some of these people deserve to be embarrassed. That's a good question. I don't know the answer to it yet" (AP, 3/8).

Shuttle Services
I am certain this has been posted before, so I apologize. Are there any shuttle services you all would recommend from Ft. Lauderdale to the Miami cruiseport?
Thank you.! :D |
I'm sure there are many, but I always see "SUper Shuttle" when I'm down there, they seem to have a large fleet. I would also check with your cruiseline, they most likely offer a transfer, just see what they charge for that. Forget a cab, that would be more moneys.
www.ridesas.com This is the most economical, and easy as 1-2-3... $15.00 pp each way. I have used them, and recommend, them all the time...

I just got a Romanian lower handguard. I'm used to seeing the handguard with the Romanian side folder, but I've also seen it with the original wood stock, and started to like it. I stained my original wood stock to make it match as best as I can. It's not perfect, but close. Biggest difference is the handguard is glossy, the stock isn't.
I had my side folder on for months and love the way it looks. But I'm starting to like this too. What to do!!!!!!!
Ignore that the top handguard is missing. Ultimak with PA micro-dot is on it's way!

Your title is incredibly vague (and annoying).

AUSTIN, Texas — A century after Albert Einstein said we would never be able to observe the instantaneous velocity of tiny particles as they randomly shake and shimmy, so called Brownian motion, physicist Mark Raizen and his group have done so.
"This is the first observation of the instantaneous velocity of a Brownian particle," says Raizen, the Sid W. Richardson Foundation Regents Chair and professor of physics at The University of Texas at Austin. "It's a prediction of Einstein's that has been standing untested for 100 years. He proposed a test to observe the velocity in 1907, but said that the experiment could not be done."
In 1907, Einstein likely did not foresee a time when dust-sized particles of glass could be trapped and suspended in air by dual laser beam "optical tweezers." Nor would he have known that ultrasonic vibrations from a plate-like transducer would shake those glass beads into the air to be tweezed and measured as they moved in suspension.
Raizen's research, published in Science, is the first direct test of the equipartition theorem for Brownian particles, one of the basic tenets of statistical mechanics. It is also a step toward cooling glass beads to a state in which they could be used as oscillators or sensors.
The equipartition theorem states that a particles' kinetic energy — the energy it possesses due to motion — is determined only by its temperature, not its size or mass.
Raizen's study now proves that the equipartition theorem is true for Brownian particles; in this case, glass beads that were three micrometers across.
Raizen says he and his colleagues can now push the limits, moving the particles closer to a quantum state for observation.
"We've now observed the instantaneous velocity of a Brownian particle," says Raizen. "In some sense, we're closing a door on this problem in physics. But we are actually opening a much larger door for future tests of the equipartition theorem at the quantum level."
There, he expects that equipartition theory will break down, leading to new problems and solutions surrounding the quantum mechanics of small particles composed of many atoms.
Raizen's coauthors are Tongcang Li, Simon Kheifets and David Medellin of the Center for Nonlinear Dynamics and Department of Physics at The University of Texas at Austin.

Good article, but you lost me at the end. How can "small particles" be composed of "many atoms"?
3. Lawrence Kwiat said on May 21, 2010
You haven't proven Einstein wrong, you've just added to his mystery. Einstein was a prince of the mathematics of uncertainty. He was engaged in the exploration of the unknown - and he knew his field was a moving target. That includes you and your explorations, he understood that his own suppositions of the unknown would eventually engage a reality that would, or would not, support them. You're there, but in being there, you are very much a part of Einstein's case in point - that uncertainty evolves though time. The time you and I are in. Relax. Forget "right" and "wrong" and engage in the evolution of events. Much more important subject. Much more engaged with the evolution of certainty from the sea of uncertainty (to which it eventually re-engages anyway).

Yeah, but that wouldn't be a very good headline, Lawrence.
5. Josue Osuna said on May 21, 2010
Congratulations to Raizen and his team. I am a proud old friend of David and have witnessed your passion in these findings. Outstanding and magnanimous job, keep pushing humanity knowledge and certainty beyond, we all thank.

THANK YOU for an article that isn't dumbed-down to the point of not having information. Too many science write-ups these days don't actually present any science. Well done.

Einstein's e=mc2 is right in the equation but wrong by the constant. The speed of light is ONLY a measurement of speed. Of course, using this as your constant in this equation would lead you to need an infinite amount of energy to reach the speed of light, as you are using the speed of light as the constant. Anyone else see it! Please tell me I'm not alone here. This equation is based on the assumption that the speed of light is the fastest that ANYTHING can travel. Let's redo his equation, shall we, and see what happens... >:)
