Finished this up this weekend. It just needs a cleaning and a boil, and its ready to go. I decide to upgrade my old 20' coil of 1/4" tubing. I had a leftover 10' length, dismantled my first attempt at a semi-counterflow and sometimes pre-chiller for another 10 and added 20' more. So I now have 60 of tubing held in two coils in a 1/2 copper frame. I will be looking to get a pump to recirculate ice water once the domestic water gets to its normal 75 to 80 degrees in the summer. I kept the height fairly low, as I typically do five gallon batches. But it should work fine for ten gallons. The center coil sits about two inches higher than the outer. The diameter allows it to fit in a standard five gallon bucket for cleaning and storage. The support arms are standard 1/2 plumbing copper and fitting. I took the idea of drilling the supports from keelanfishs design in the thread http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/imme...1/#post1069585, which is tad more elaborate than I had the inclination for. Only the two supports are drilled to support the bottom and top, and I added a handle to carry it without grabbing the actual tubing. The lowest cross-bar sits on the side of the domed bottom of my keggle and leaves a pretty good gap. If it encounters too much of the hot break, Ill add some kind of feet to lift it up a little.
Wow verry nice. I think I may have to coppy youre design when I put together mine
Well done. I like the use of the tees to simplify my idea of drilling all the holes in the support pipes. Let us know how it performs!
love the 2 coils and the support system with handle. i will definately be loking at this again when i make my chiller

Man that's a lot of copper... Well done! Love the design! I'm almost as anxious as you to see how it works- Happy brewing!
how much did it cost you for the whole project?
Cost is a tough to figure because I already had 40' of the tubing, and the 2 to 3 feet of 1/2" pipe and elbows were leftover from some plumbing work on my house. All told I spent about $35 for 20' feet of tube, the compression fittings and copper T's and coupling for the tubing. The tubing is most of it. I think all the fittings and 1/2" pipe would run about $20 total.

Join two disabled tri-cyclists as we attempt to film a 1100km journey across Tibet and the Himalaya and deliver an important message.

About this project
Trikes on the Roof of the World
Many cyclists call it the worlds most epic bike ride. The journey across the highest plateau on earth traverses the 1100 kilometer 'Friendship Highway' from Lhasa in Tibet, to Kathmandu in Nepal. It is an odyssey that crosses eight high passes, three above 5300 meters, cycles to Everest Base Camp, and makes the demands of high altitude a very real problem. For some this cycling pilgrimage, over the Himalaya's, is a 'life changing' journey.
And that is if all your limbs function correctly. Now just imagine achieving this if you were disabled. This is exactly what Carol Hurst andPaul Pritchard will do this September. We will attempt the 36 day traverse by recumbent tricycle (we are unable to ride two wheelers) and film the adventure. We have different disabilities and are each dealing with our disability in our own way. The one thing we do have in common - neither of us can walk very far so rely on our trikes. Film makers Sharyn Jones and Chris Jones will be filming the Journey thereby encouraging other disabled people.
- Join us in spirit as we record Trikes on the Roof of the World on film.
Paul Pritchard will tour Australia and venues around the world with Trikes on the Roof of the World. The film will be used as an educational tool to promote much needed positive role models for disabled people. We hope to inspire other people who do not have the good fortune of a healthy body to keep striving to be the best they can. This is a powerful, uplifting message not just for the disabled, but for all people.
Trikes on the Roof of the World will explore the perception of many Tibetans that if you are disabled or blind you must have done something bad in a past life and are now paying for it in a karmic way. The film hopes to juxtapose this with western attitudes towards the disabled and highlight the ability in disability, thereby challenging perceptions of the disabled. All this set against the jaw-dropping backdrop of Tibet and the Himalayas.
On the 20th September the team will head west from Lhasa. Besides Everest other Himalayan giants encountered will be Choy Oyu (8201m) and Shishapangma (8014m).
And as if that wasn't enough coming off Mount Everest toward Kathmandu we face an astonishing 4600m of downhill, the longest road descent on earth. Imagine doing that on your back with your backside only centimeters from a mud packed Nepalese road surface.
We are hoping to raise $8000 for filming and editing costs and DVD production.

Raith 0-0 Dundee: Match Report
Raith 0-0 Dundee: Match Report - view commentary, squad, and statistics of the game as it happened.
Rovers rally to claim draw
Raith and Dundee were made to share the spoils at Stark's Park as both sides struggled to find the breakthrough in an uninspiring 0-0 draw.
In a goalless first half it was the visitors who created the better chances but Peter MacDonald dragged a shot just wide of the upright before Carlo Monti thought he'd converted James McAlister's corner only for the referee to blow for a foul.
Dundee went close again just before the half-time whistle but MacDonald was guilty of a glaring miss when he sent a free header over the bar from just a yard out.
The second half was very much a similar affair as John Brown's men pushed for the opener, but Raith keeper David McGurn was on hand to make a double save from Declan Gallagher and Dundee failed to break down the hosts' defence.

Law Offices Of Todd M. Garber Announces Lead Plaintiff Deadline In The Class Action Lawsuit Against Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation
The Law Offices of Todd M. Garber announces that shareholders of Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation ("Magnum Hunter" or the "Company") (NYSE:MHR;MHR-PD;MHR-PE;MHR-PC) have until June 24, 2013 to move for lead plaintiff status in the shareholder lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of a class (the "Class") comprising all purchasers of Magnum Hunter securities between January 17, 2012, and April 16, 2013, inclusive (the "Class Period").
On April 16, 2013, Magnum Hunter disclosed that at the direction of the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors Magnum Hunter had dismissed its auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC"), after PwC advised the Company of material weaknesses in the Company's internal accounting controls. PwC identified certain issues that may have a material impact on the fairness or reliability of Magnum Hunter's consolidated financial statements, including: (1) valuation of the Company's oil and gas properties; (2) calculation of the Company's oil and gas reserves; (3) the Company's position with respect to certain tax matters; (4) the Company's accounting of its acquisition of NGAS Resources, Inc.; and (5) the Company's compliance with certain debt covenants.
If you are a member of the above-described Class, you may move the Court no later than June 24, 2013 to serve as lead plaintiff; however, you must meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the Class you need not take any action at this time. You may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent Class member.
If you purchased Magnum Hunter shares prior to the Class Period, or wish to discuss this action or have any questions concerning this Notice or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Todd M. Garber, Esquire, of the Law Offices of Todd M. Garber, by telephone at 213-700-7262 or by email to email@example.com.

An overwhelming number of you that responded to my poll asked me to do a tutorial. The Beginners Buide to Scripting tutorial on Apophysis scripting is now complete. You can get it at this djeaton3162.deviantart.com/art… . I really hope that you give me some feedback on it as I plan on writing an Intermediate Guide to Apophysis Scripting as well. If you have suggestions about what you would like to see in the Intermediate guide or what you would like to do in a script, let me know.
Also, as an idea, if you would like me to take a sample script and walk through it line by line in a hands-on kind of explanation, let me know. I can do a version for both the Beginner's and Intermediate tutorials. It would basically be the same kind of information, but would be presented differently and might help some people. I learned a long time ago that not everyone learns the same way.
On the Bad News front though, my laptop still isn't right. I'm going to have to send it back in for repair again. Hopefully, I can get four more scripts that I have ready finished up and uploaded before that happens.

Waves of early transcriptional activation and pluripotency program initiation during human preimplantation development
