Love it!, 23rd Jan 2014
Reviewer: Stephanie Hayden
I love KO thread! I use it for all of my seed beading projects, it's strong and doesn't seem to tangle as much as other threads I've used before.
so nice, 12th May 2014
Reviewer: Tania Sk
If you haven't used the KO thread yet I highly recommend it. It's smooth and strong and manageable and less prone to splitting. It's also easier to thread into tiny needles.

It's fascinating reading the census for Felice Cornacchia; I've been trying to discover what connection there was to England and now I know that he worked in Surrey and later his wife gave birth to their daughters, Rosa and Maria, in England. I wish I could find a marriage certificate for Felice and Carolina (Carolinae?) Cornacchia to learn more about this line of the family.
Also, I'm trying to discover who Mary Cornacchia (b. abt 1886 in England) was married to. From your information, I've learned that she was widowed at the time of the 1930 U.S. Census. It would be fascinating to find out her husband's surname!

The US and LHCb
There are seventeen scientists and students from Syracuse University, two from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, eight from the University of Maryland and eight from Cincinnati University participating in the LHCb experiment. The total LHCb collaboration numbers approximately 750 scientists, including about 170 PhD students, from 15 countries.
The scientists and students in the Syracuse University group are involved with many aspects of the LHCb experiment. For example, one member works on detector and electronics configurations and software for the Vertex Locator, and tests of detector components. The Vertex Locator measures the tracks of charged particles emitted from the collision of protons accelerated by the LHC. The group also designed transport modules to move the Vertex Locator detector components safely from the UK to CERN.
Another member of the Syracuse group works to align the many different pieces of the LHCb detector, critical for correctly analyzing data collected from the detector.
The LHCb trigger is the hardware and software in the detector that quickly decides which collisions should be saved for further analysis. Because of computing constraints, none of the LHC experiments can record all the data that comes from the detector. LHCb keeps 2000 out of approximately 20 million events each second. One part of the Syracuse team creates software that monitors the LHCb trigger.
The group also designed a system to calibrate the sensors of the Ring Imaging Cherenkov Detector. The purpose of this LHCb subsystem is to decide if a charged particle produced in a collision of two protons is a pion, kaon, proton or electron.

Spaulding gymnasts third in Nashua
Thursday, February 7, 2013
rochester — The Spaulding High School gymnastics team went Pink for the Cure at a meet hosted by Nashua North that was also a fundraiser for the Susan G. Komen Foundation. The Raiders finished third in a field of six schools and posted their best score of the season, a 94.9. Bishop Guertin was first place with a score of 128.95 while Nashua North was 2nd with a 109.35. Other schools at the meet included Nashua South, Alvirne and local competitors from Farmington.
Spaulding opened the meet on beam. Nekkei Perry was the lead gymnast for the Raiders and posted a 5.2. Perry competed a new element she has added to her routine, a shoulder pull over on the beam. Senior Kim Whitehouse competed on beam for the first time and earned a 6.1 in her first outing. Paige Dufault stuck her beam routine and earned a 6.0, Brandi Dussault earned a 5.6. Finishing out the beam line up were Eryn Libby who earned a 6.0 and competed a new beam dismount and Bahlert who posted a 7.8. Their best four scores earned the Raiders 25.90 for the rotation.
Vault has emerged as a strong event for the Raiders who posted 27.9 in the rotation. Brownell competed in vault for the first time doing a straddle thru vault and earned a 6.1. Also competing the straddle thru were Kim Whitehouse and Dufault who scored 6.0 each. Three students competed in the front handspring – Katie Barnes posted a 7.0, Katie Menard scored a 6.4 and Monique Baldwin in her first time in vault scored a 6.5. Bahlert closed out the event with an 8.0 – her best vault score of the season.
The Raiders will next see action today at Gymnastics at Brentwood against Exeter and will be at the state championships in Salem on Feb. 16. The Raiders are coached by Rae Ann Chrane and Tracy Smith. Team member Kathryn Routhier served as score keeper at the meet. The team also wishes to thank the Spaulding floral class instructor for donating the pink ribbon for hair bows and staff at the Seacoast Cancer Center at Wentworth Douglas Hospital for the pink ribbon fabric bandanas worn for march-in.

Tomato Tart
This tomato tart made its way around the food blogging sphere not too long ago and while I did not get the chance to make it I did bookmark it. Now that the locally grown field tomatoes are looking nice and ripe it was the perfect time to make it. This tart is made with layered phyllo dough though you could easily use puff pastry dough. The tart is topped with some onions, mozzarella cheese and of course fresh tomatoes. Parmigiano reggiano is spread between the layers of phyllo dough for even more cheesy goodness. The tart is finished with a fresh herb and I went with some fresh thyme. I cut the size of the recipe down to half by folding or cutting the phyllo sheets in half. The phyllo tomato tarts were pretty easy to make. The phyllo dough came out nice and golden brown and crispy and buttery and good. The thinly sliced tomatoes on top roasted a bit concentrating their amazing flavour. The thyme added a really nice aroma to each bite of the tart.
3 sheets phyllo dough (thawed and cut in half lengthwise)
3 tablespoons butter (melted)
3 tablespoon parmigiano reggiano (grated)
1/2 cup red onion (thinly sliced)
1/2 cup mozzarella (grated)
2 tomatoes (thinly sliced)
1 tablespoon thyme (chopped)
salt and pepper to taste
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease the parchment paper.
2. Lay a sheet of phyllo dough on the parchment paper and brush the top with butter.
3. Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon of the parmigiano reggiano on top.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 with the rest of the phyllo dough.
5. Spread the onions slices on top followed by the mozzarella.
6. Place the sliced tomatoes on in a single layer.
7. Sprinkle the thyme on top along with the salt and pepper.
8. Bake in a preheated 375F oven until the phyllo dough is golden brown, about 20-30 minutes.

Revit CDs Made Easy _with BIM After Dark Vol. 2!
A Product Review by Michael Anonuevo
It has been a year since I wrote my review of Jeff Pinheiro's BIM. After Dark (B.A.D.). Jeff is the Revit expert who runs Revitkid.com, a great resource for all things Revit. Over the years, I've learned a lot from the hundreds of blogs he had posted on his website. The first volume of B.A.D. consisted of video tutorials teaching users how to create great presentations using Revit and other applications (http://www.littledetailscount.com/index.php/news/2014/02/01/bim-after-dark).
And now, in this follow up to that great product, Jeff divulges his excellent techniques in creating construction documents (CDs) from a Revit model! This article will give you an idea on what this new volume is all about.
BIM After Dark Vol. 2
B.A.D. Vol. 2 consists of 38* video tutorials. The length of the videos averages to about 9 1/2 minutes _with 1.33 minutes being the shortest and 30.18 minutes being the longest. The total running time of the videos is a little over 6 hours. In fairness to Revit users and to come up with this review, I spent one weekend going through all the 38 videos! In the process, I took down notes while watching all of them. At times, I watched a few of them more than one time to be sure I didn't miss anything. If you want to skimp the rest of this product review, here is my verdict: this product is a MUST for all Revit users!
You can view the outline of the videos and pricing information from: http://www.bimafterdark.com/volume2.html. However, that outline doesn't give this new volume justice because there are tips and tricks included in the videos which will be summarized in the following section:
* With the inclusion of Video 27.1 and 27.2
Section 1
O1 – Introduction and Setup: The project is a Spiritual Center located in Montreal.
In this video, Jeff shows the presentation images generated from the model before the CDs were created. He chose this project because of its simple geometry and the fact that its size is not too overwhelming.
Topic included: Project Information.

Revizto: Effortless 3D Collaboration in Revit
A product review by Michael Anonuevo
By this time, most of you must have come across or heard about Revizto. It is a revolutionary 3D collaboration program developed by Vizerra, a software company based in Moscow, Russia. Using the technology used in video games, it turns Revit models into interactive, navigable 3D environment.
I've never heard of Revizto until I got their promotional email late last year. After a quick search, I found out that there has been a buzzword on Revizto for quite some time now from popular Revit websites. Later on, I chanced upon a blog posted by my esteemed colleague, Jeff Pinheiro (therevitkid.com fame), where he posted an article entitled "Ultimate Guide to Revizto". Not to be left behind, I downloaded the free trial, read the Help files, and then tried Revizto. The first word that came out of my mouth as I was navigating a sample project from my iPad Air was "awesome"!
This article expounds on Jeff Pinheiro's Ultimate Guide and digs into a few details on how to use some of the software's great features. Although Revizto was designed for Revit and Sketchup, the focus of this article is how Revit users can use Revizto to their advantage.
2014 eBook Announcement
Hi everybody! You may be wondering when I will release the 2014 version of Creating Custom Revit Architecture Families. Unfortunately, I've had some personal setbacks which forced me to skip this version.
Early this year (2013), my youngest brother unexpectedly passed away. This was followed by the passing away of my oldest brother one month later. Coincidently, two of my close relatives also passed away. I needed some time to absorb these tragic incidents and that is why I stayed away from writing. The good news is I was offered a job as a Revit contractor in April, which I accepted. That helped tremendously in my grieving period as it made me extremely busy.
I am now fine and started writing blogs again. As soon as the Holiday season is over, I will definitely start writing the 2015 version of my eBook and will keep you posted. Thank you for your patience.

BIM. After Dark.
A product review by Michael Anonuevo
As the New Year is fast approaching, I want to add this final 2013 product review for Revit users. You may have seen or receive a notification from revitkid.com regarding a new website called BIM. After Dark. (www.bimafterdark.com).
Apparently, it is a separate website created by the owner of revitkid.com where users can purchase how-to videos pertaining to Revit presentation techniques. BIM. After Dark. (B.A.D.) is the brainchild of Mr. Jeff Pinheiro, the Revit guru who owns and runs revitkid.com. Like most of you who had followed and subscribed to revitkid.com, I got an email notification with a preview of a B.A.D. video. On December 10 last week, B.A.D. went live. Having viewed and learned a lot of tips and tricks from revitkid.com, I visited the site during the launch date and ended up purchasing one of the 3 video packages on sale. This article is a review of that video purchase.

So far not a single reply on the mesa list...
It's not new, it's not canonical specific:
- Tizen is code-dumped by Samsung, and the community has reduced its interest in it.
- Android is open source but closed gouvernance, and the Linux community don't like it much either. Now that Google upstreams more of their changes upstream, things are getting a bit better.
- Open-office anyone?
and so on... you get what you ask for.
And still no reply on the mesa list...
IIRC Microsoft was in breach of the GPL with Hyper-V otherwise we never would of seen it.
Ubuntu, much like Android is trying to be a separate entity from other Distro's/flavors of Linux based Operating Systems.... This is fine, no problems here right?
Ubuntu can't make it's own platform like Android did atop the kernel, so they still swim in the FLOSS ocean getting free lunch along the way.... No problems here I guess most Distro's don't heavily contribute.. (considering the insane amount of them).
Ubuntu is trying to alter existing project, spitting on others, and using M$'s favorite tactic of spreading FUD... Yeah, well, hmm.
I wish Ubuntu well, on it's journey. They don't have the developer skill, time, nor resources to pull this off... of course I would love to eat my words and have a kick ass DS that's video accelerated EGL compliant and resource friendly, just don't think they can.
So much butthurt in this and other threads...
"They didn't hire right people", "They have no rescources", "They want to have control" (how can this be bad in any way?!). Canonical has the right people. Experience is not everything. Someimes experience screws everything, because you build thing as you used to in the past. First good decision, against so-called *experience*: they use C++(11) instead of pure C, what makes code much simplier and easier to maintain. They have much more people working on this (mor than wayland has) and they have faster development (9 months and support for 3D (over EGL), android drivers working, QMir backend, XMir...). They have enough resources to drive their own project in a way they want it to be. They don't have rescources to be huge patcher of GNOME, wayland, Qt, just to get things they want.
Projects goal-driven are much morte efficient than community-driven. People are leaving - too many cooks spoil the broth.
I know, there will be plenty of people being mad at this, saying this harms the FOSS community as it's based on misguided egoes, etc...
Let's face it, it's more likely that supporting Canonical after their recent foul play would harm the FOSS community around Wayland.
Instead of creating whole new display server, they could build unity atop wayland, just like kwin, gnome-shell, e17 and others would do. Wayland devs would be more than happy cooperating with Canonical to suit wayland protocol to their needs.. Thats the point of display server to be as universal as possible. With Mir, its possible that it will only power Unity, negating the whole purpose of general display server, which every distro can easily use

Indian Chicken Curry
I meet a lot of interesting friends from my blog, especially my friends who live in Irvine, Orange County. Recently, I connected with Reem of Simply Reem. After many email exchanges, I finally met her in person. Reem is so sweet; she came to support my cooking demo at Macy's and bought me a nice bouquet of flower. Simply Reem is a blog about cooking, home/garden and more. I simply adore Reem's homey recipes on Indian cuisine. Today, she teaches us how to make Indian chicken curry with dried roasted spices, a family recipe that she learned from her mother. Enjoy and don't forget to check out Simply Reem.
I want to start by thanking Bee for giving me opportunity to share my recipe on Rasa Malaysia. Rasa Malaysia is an excellent blog which brought Asian food and cooking to a new platform. I have been a sincere follower and fan of Bee and her beautiful space even before I started my blog. Every craving of Asian food from Noodles to Laksa bought me here, a place where I could find it all and learn. It is truly an honor for me to be here today. Thanks Bee!!
For me there are few things as reassuring as a bowl of hot steamy curry dish with some rice or bread. I remember no dinner in my parents home was complete without a curry dish; it always faithfully made its way to the dinner table in some form or the other. Every season has its own version of curry dishes to be enjoyed with your family and friends. Even though curries are a part of me but for a very long time I feared making one of my own. It wasn't so much the procedure or precision that kept me from simmering my own curry but rather a fear of not being able to live up to my own expectation. Finally, after a long wait I did make curry and I have never looked back since.
Before we move on let me tell you that the word curry itself is one of the most misunderstood culinary term. Curry literary means a "dish with a sauce," curry is not a dish by itself. You add the name of the key ingredient before curry and voila you have the name of the dish…Chicken Curry, Mixed Vegetable Curry, Lamb Curry and so on. Adding a spoon or two of store bought curry powder to a dish is far from anything authentic. A true home-style Indian curry is a beautiful symphony of simple flavors and spices. They are not only delicious but really healthy; nothing like the ones you are usually served at restaurants loaded with fat and spices. Simmering gently, bringing all the flavors from herbs, spices and vegetable/meat/chicken/fish together in a form of a delightful dish, curries can be a part of any meal; making it more delicious and enjoyable.
Moving on, the recipe of "Indian Chicken Curry with Dry-Roasted Spices" I am sharing today is a delightful and absolutely delicious chicken curry you will find in many Indian kitchens. It is really easy to make; the addition of roasted spices at the end of the cooking makes it even more delicious and add a wonderful rich color as well as divine aroma to the dish. So here you go, enjoy!!
Once more Thanks Bee for having me here.

I am really happy to see Reem on your beautiful website, Bee! She is such a sweetheart, and I love her blog!
Reem thank you for your story, I enjoyed reading it very much!
Forgot to add…recipe sound so delicious and photos are truly mouthwatering! :)
Hi Bee! So happy to see Reem here today. She has been a great friend of mine too. She's very sincere and kind person and I can totally see her supporting you at the cooking demo (Congrats again!). Wish I could be there at the demo so I could meet you two! Great Indian curry recipe, Reem! :-)
Thanks for having me Bee. it is truly and honor and pleasure doing a guest post for your blog.
What a fun guest post! Can't wait to try this recipe, thank you!
So cool! I have all the Ingredients and the spices!!! Tonight its the Rasamalaysia's Chicken Curry!!
The whole roasted spices is really what makes this dish stand out from a lot of curries. I am always amazed at the array of whole spices, for I rarely see them in the US-it seems like they are all ground.
Glad to see Reem guest posting here!
Haven't had a good Indian curry in a long time….this will be my next curry dish! Looks yum! Can I use canned diced tomatoes instead of fresh?
@ Jane you can always make it without roasted spices, just add all the whole spice except coriander seeds along with onion, bay leaf and cinnamon stick and the rest method remain the same…
@ Fern, Sure you can use canned diced tomatoes….
Hi Bee ,
It's great to see Reem doing a guest post. The chicken curry looks so flavorful. Gorgeous clicks too!
Nice to see you here Reem, that curry is mouth watering
Hi Bee, nice to meet you :)
Reem, this recipe is as wonderful as it looks…gorgeous flavors!
I make chicken curry a lot of times. As I come from a western family, us westerners tend to like boneless chicken more. Although, being on a tight schedule I found it highly sufficient to use some ready masala mixes from MDH. They got ready masala mixes which contain spice blends only. No colors, preservatives etc. Just spices.
Another tweak I was learnt by a pakistani housewife was using stock instead of water. When meat on bone is cooked in a curry, the bones also adds a "stocky" flavor as it's gently simmered among the masalas.
But as for cooking boneless chicken/mutton, I found that using homemade chicken stock adds more body to the curry.

Believe in Mentoring
"So many times I didn't know what to do and I would call her," shares new mom Rachael, who had more peace of mind than many first-time mothers because of her nurse Melissa from Home Nursing Agency's Nurse-Family Partnership®. Melissa's guidance and mentoring allowed Rachael to gain confidence as a mother caring for her young son.
Nurse-Family Partnership is a free home visitation program for nurses to mentor income-eligible first-time mothers and provide education and support from early pregnancy through the child's second birthday.
Through education and guidance, nurses talk with mothers about the medical, psychological, social, and developmental aspects of being pregnant. They provide new mothers with support, education, and counseling on health, behavior, and self-sufficiency until the baby reaches two years of age. Interested first-time mothers must enroll in Nurse-Family Partnership before 28 weeks gestation. Learn more about Nurse-Family Partnership.

In the year 2000, world leaders committed to reducing poverty by half by the year 2015. Later, in September 2010, a Plenary High Level Meeting of the General Assembly was called to review the progress toward reaching the goals of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG), and a plan of action was agreed upon to accelerate the process of reaching them by 2015. The UN System was also asked to continue providing information for the global debate about development and to lead this international debate about a Post 2015 Development Agenda.
We have made tremendous improvements in the Americas, but there is still much work to be done. What kind of world do we want after 2015?

Cooper, my 3-year-old, thinks I work at the best place ever.
He constantly asks, "Mommy, when can I come to your turkey work?" And every so often I'll pick him up early from daycare and bring him back to the office.
In his sweet little mind, there are no deadlines or creative differences. The only inbox he's ever had was during a Valentine's Day party, a decorated shoebox filled with cartoon-themed cards with suckers attached.
To him, the NWTF headquarters is full of taxidermy turkeys he can (gently) touch. It's where people call him "bud" and give him candy from their desk drawers. And a detour to the CEO's office yielded a camo hat and turkey pin.
The other week the NWTF held an employee appreciation event at the office, an evening of grilled hamburgers and hotdogs, games, archery, fishing, skeet shooting and (the toddler holy grail) an inflatable slide. Forget Disney World, the NWTF had to be the best place on Earth, according to Cooper.
A couple days later, I had to laugh when we drove by the office building and the little munchkin wondered out loud where the bouncy house was. If only every workday were that fun and carefree.
It's easy to get jaded after a long week of meetings, projects and seemingly endless e-mails. We've all been there. Heck, even Disney loses a bit of its magic after standing in long lines and paying $20 for chicken fingers.
But when I sit back and look beyond an average day, the NWTF really is a good place to work.
May 31 served as the perfect example. That morning, a dozen or so wounded veterans from the VA Medical Center in Augusta, Ga., spent the day at the Wild Turkey Center. More than 60 NWTF employees emerged from their offices, cubicles, even the warehouse, lined the building entrance and gave those warriors a well-deserved standing ovation for their service.
My heart swelled with pride, not only for the men passing by, but for my co-workers who value freedom and understand sacrifice. I cried a bit.
Now, I don't have a lot to compare the NWTF to. It was my first real job out of college. And I've stuck with it for nearly 13 years. But I'm pretty sure this is a fine place from which to draw a paycheck.
The one thing most everyone who leaves the NWTF says they miss the most is the people. I have to agree. You won't find a group who cares more about others.
It's like family, and I'm not saying that as a cheesy cliché. We don't always agree, even get along at times, but at the end of the week we stick together to get our "turkey work" done.

Beautiful! Love the stitching, love the look! Makes my 2003 HD Ultra Classic look even better. Named my Bike Sophia (Loren), - this seat adds to her curves and makes the Bike look GREAT.

I love this new seat! My '08 Electraglide came with the stock seat, both too high and too far forward, and the Mustang Daytripper seat dropped me almost 2 inches and back almost the same! Posture is better, shifter and brake ergonomics improved immensely. Great purchase!
jescott27 Posted:
Took a little muscle to get the seat locked in place, but it looks and rides great. It's really nice to have the comfort of a Mustang seat (even bigger improvement for a passenger) without ruining the sporty look of the bike.

Lennon & McCartney Sons Back With New Music
Thursday, June 20, 2013
Julian Lennon is back with the American release of his new album, Everything Changes. The collection, which was released internationally last year, marks Lennon's first full-length album since 1999's Photograph Smile. He spoke about the new collection to Rolling Stone, explaining, "I'm probably more comfortable with this album than any other in the sense that there's not one thing on this album that I twitch about. There are mistakes on the album, but I like the mistakes. They're part of the truth of the songs."
Julian, who's now 50 -- a full decade older than his father, John Lennon, was when he was murdered in 1980 -- touched upon why he felt the need to lay low from music for 14 years: "I got sick of the business. On the last album, which I worked very hard on -- I spent a year around the world promoting it, doing anything and everything. I just felt that all the other people I was hoping to be supported by just didn't come to the fore. I just said 'I'm done with this.'"
Lennon, who was interviewed at L.A.'s Sunset Marquis Hotel, spoke about Aerosmith's Steven Tyler appearing on "Someday" off the new album, which was his way of returning the favor for Julian's recent cameo on Aerosmith's last album: "I met Steven Tyler upstairs here in the bar. He was doing (American Idol) at the time, the Aerosmith album, and they were rehearsing for tour. He would always pop into the bar and see who was there and say hello before going to bed. I just walked behind him and grabbed his elbow and said, 'Mr. Tyler, Mr. Lennon.' Apparently I'd met him 30 years ago at the Hit Factory in New York when I was doing the first album (Valotte), but I didn't remember. It was just chaos at that time."
Julian Lennon hasn't toured since 1999 and told us that he has very specific ideas as to how he wants to make his stage return: "Believe you me, I wanna do live dates but I also wanna make sure the show's right and I also wanna do it in the right way, the way I wanna do it. I wanna work with partial orchestras -- y'know, so even though it'll be rock n' roll, a lot of the material that I do do, or have written is very thematic (with a lot of) great orchestration. And I did one show in Hong Kong with a full orchestra and it was the most amazing experience."
Paul McCartney's son, 35-year-old James McCartney, has been on the road over the past few months promoting his first full length album, called Me, which serves as the followup to two previously released EP's of original music. Although normally a man of very few words, he spoke in depth to The Daily Mail about his family life and past drug use. Although he wouldn't name which drug he was abusing, James, who now claims he's "several months sober," revealed that he sought help following the 1998 death of his mother, Linda McCartney: "That whole period was rough. I got more and more into drugs. I ended up going to rehab in Arizona after I had a bit of an episode. I didn't really think I needed it as I wasn't into hard drugs, so I left after a week."
He went on to talk about his life after his mother's death -- which coincided with a rift between he and his dad -- recalling, "I gave up drugs for a bit. I lived in Brighton and I got a girlfriend. That was the weirdest period for me. I walked around Brighton a lot. I walked miles. I found it very therapeutic. I thought about God a lot -- I have always been interested in spirituality and I'm reading the Bible right now. Then I broke up with my girlfriend and started doing drugs once again. . . I went a long time without seeing Dad. We drifted apart. We would talk on the phone every few months, but we went a long time without seeing each other. It was sad for both of us."
James touched upon his relationship with his two "step-mothers" -- McCartney's second wife, Heather Mills and current wife, Nancy Shevell: "My relationship with Heather was not very good. I didn't like her. But I wouldn't want to say anything negative about her because she's a good mother to Beatrice and that's the most important thing. Beatrice is adorable. She's great, a real joy for the whole family."
James went on to say: "Nancy's my new mother. I feel that. Definitely. She's very genuine. I knew her a year or so before she married Dad. She has been one of the biggest supporters of me doing this, pursuing my own dreams. She wants me to have my own career. She makes Dad very, very happy. We all adore her."
James McCartney next performs on August 1st at Chicago's City Winery Chicago.

Most wild cheetahs are found in eastern and southwestern Africa. Perhaps only 12,000 of these big cats remain, and those are under pressure as the wide-open grasslands they favor are disappearing at the hands of human settlers.

Med tech in hep C outbreak seeks trial delay: Defense team says budget cuts will force them to take more than a dozen days off
Friday, April 12, 2013
CONCORD — A former hospital technician charged with stealing drugs and infecting patients with hepatitis C wants his trial delayed until at least next April, in part because the public defenders representing him say federal budget cuts will force them to take more than a dozen days off in the coming months.David Kwiatkowski, who has been in jail since his arrest in July, is scheduled to go to trial Oct. 1, but his lawyers filed a motion this week asking that the trial be moved back at least six months. They argue that more time is needed given the complexity of the case, and note that they have only two attorneys and one investigator to sift through more than 10,000 files associated with the case so far. "The team has barely scratched the surface of the immense amount of discovery already received," wrote attorneys Bjorn Lange and Jonathan Saxe. "There has as yet been no independent investigation by the defense team. That is because the only investigator assigned to the case has spent approximately 243 hours organizing and reviewing the discovery."
The defense lawyers also argue that under the automatic budget cuts that began taking effect in March, each employee in the office is required to take 16 furlough days before October, which amounts to nearly 400 lost hours. In contrast, the prosecution has the ability to marshal "essentially unlimited resources" to investigate and prosecute Kwiatkowski, they wrote.
Thirty-two people in New Hampshire and a dozen people in other states have been diagnosed with the same strain of hepatitis C carried by Kwiatkowski, who worked at 18 hospitals in seven states before being hired in Exeter in April 2011. For years, he moved from job to job, despite having been fired twice over allegations of drug use and theft.

Great for do-it-yourself repairs. If no compression, and no compression release, no need to go farther, it's toast. Saves a ton of time and expense. Small convenient and medium priced for top quality- it's a Craftsman

I have used this on several vehicles and I didnt have a single issue with it. It is a great product and it had an amazing price for it.

This has everything you need for any engine other than diesel or extremely high racing engines. I used it for my jet ski engines and it is very precise. Well made from what I can tell so far.

I own a couple motorcycles and several cars and I do all my own work including building Streetrods and motors. This compression tester has performed floorlessly after several uses.

Good acurate reading, I compared it to the snap on compression tester and came up the same, good low priced kit that comes with everything you need!

Had this compression tester for about 3 years and did not use it more than maybe 15 times in that time. I used today and when I hand tighten it in a spark plug tube. I tried to loosen it and the hose just spun and it would not loosen. Shortly after that the hose spun right off the end, leaving it threaded about 4 inches deep with no way to get it out. It took me 3 hours and a number of tools to retrieve it. I would not buy this Item!!!!
Evergreen Park, IL

It is a nice little set to have. It might be priced a little high but if you catch a good sale, it is something nice to have in the tool box. It works, but I can't verify that is 100 percent accurate. However, it is pretty close if it isn't right on the money.

I looked at many different compression test kits and this provided the most options for price. Because of that it will have value well into the future.

Just as good if not better than Snap On's offerings, for a good price, especially if you can snag it on sale. Had the size I needed for my Corvette and that was plenty enough to make me happy.

Have you heard the myth that black cats are unsafe in October, in part because witches may try to adopt them for rituals? We sure have. But guess what? Top ASPCA experts agree that it's just not true.
At the ASPCA, we LOVE black kitties. (Some of our friendliest cats, like Marissa, are black—yet Marissa has waited more than nine months to find a family. What's up with that?)
Aside from the most important reason to adopt black kitties—that they really need extra help finding homes—here are a few reasons to take home one or two:
- Their fur won't show on your little black dress.
- You can tell your kids you adopted a mini panther.
- Black cats go with everything.
- In most cultures, black cats are a sign of good luck.
- You already know black cats are awesome—you have one at home! If you've got a great black kitty, tell us about him or her in the comments. You just might persuade someone else to give these felines a little extra attention.
We have had 2 black cats. They were loving and smart and funny. If we ever get any more cats it will definitely be a black one...or 2. My daughters are allergic to dogs and cats so I am hoping they will one day grow out of that because I miss my cats :( Fee and Fattie lived till they were 15 and Anna lived till she was 19 1/2.
Black cats are wonderful pets, just like any other kitty. I specifically look to adopt black cats if there are any a available when I adopt. For the past 24 years I've had black or black & white kitties. They aren't bad luck just like walking under a ladder or breaking a mirror aren't bad luck- only silly superstitions!
While I have always had Siamese cats because of their dog-like dispositions, I rescued Zoey, a gorgeous black domestic shorthair about three years ago. Someone had boxed Zoey up and left the box by a trash dumpster in Chicago. Thankfully, her high pitched voice saved her from being compressed with the rest of the trash. Zoey is big, burly, beautiful and very funny. She always disguises herself by sitting on a black piece of furniture. She loves to go to work with me and is the perfect desk top accessory. I wouldn't trade her for all the tea in China.
I adopted Maddie from the local Humane Society 2 years ago come November. They told me when I adopted her that black cats were usually the last to be adopted. She is a real sweetie - she loves to lay across my arms belly up when I am on my laptop, plays fetch (she did this herself - I am sure that she thinks that she taught me) and is a great lap cat. And she knows what to do if field mice sneak in.
I adopted a black cat seven months ago, and he had been in the shelter for 10 months-since he was 10 weeks old! I can't believe no one scooped him up as a little kitten, but we sure are happy they didn't. He is the friendliest cat and loves to be the center of attention. Our friends and family are totally smitten with him- and so are we! We hate the black cat stigma, and we like to say that he is our LUCKY cat! (But really, we're the lucky ones to have him in our lives)
I am incredibly lucky to have found the most loving and wonderful black cat (or cat of any color for that matter!). He is playful and loving; he always greets me at the door when I come home; and he invariably curls up on top of my head every night to sleep. He's never far from my side, whether he is trying to climb in to the bathtub during shower time, curled up around my shoulders when I'm watching a movie, or on the keyboard when I'm trying to do my work. I couldn't ask for a more loving companion or a better friend.
Please adopt a black cat.
Every black cat that I have ever known; have been the sweetest cats ever!!!
We had a black kitten named Barney who showed up at my husband's car shop one day. My husband was sitting on a stool working on brakes. Barney (named for "Deputy Barney Fife" of the Andy Griffith Show) promptly climbed up my husband's leg and perched himself on his shoulder. From that day on he went everywhere my husband went, back and forth to work and rode on his shoulder or sitting in the back windshield of the truck. He soon discovered that things were more interesting at home since we had two adult female cats with whom he could show his mischievous side. Barney was a loving member of our family for 12 years at which time he became very sick with a pancreas disease. My Mom was in her 80s-90s during this time, and Barney became "her boy", as she adored him. I can't begin to tell you how wonderful this all black kitty was. He had a human personality almost, and I nicknamed him my "little Huckleberry Finn", because he loved to go outside so much that I figured he must have an imaginary raft somewhere that he rode down the river (ha). We miss him to this very day and it's been over two years. Don't hesitate to take in a black cat. They are wonderful! You won't regret it.
One afternoon we were out back grilling and my husband spotted this tiny little black baby just over our fence. He was scared and hungry. I lured him with food and he began hanging out with us there and when we went in I showed him our pet door. He came in after a short time and spent the night in our basement rafters and was super loving. My husband started calling him Squirt and it stuck. We had him neutered and he is our baby. Loves to have his entire face and head scratched.
I've always had black cats. The truth about black cats is that they are a a vision of elegance. I had to put down my black kitty of 15 years and I miss her so much. She was a wonderful, lovable, intuitive and sweet companion. I felt so lonely without her. I since have adopted another 2 year black kitty who is a male and he is also wonderful, lovable and so sweet. I call him my gentle giant. When I met him, he immediately was so loving and sweet. Don't pass up adopting a black cat because they truly are awesome companions and very beautiful!
