Drivers warned ahead of sub-zero temperatures for Cumbria
Last updated at 17:35, Wednesday, 05 December 2012
MOTORISTS in Cumbria have been warned to take extra care over the next 24 to 36 hours.
The Met Office have issued a yellow warning for snow with up to 10cm expected in the east of the county tomorrow.
A widespread sharp frost is expected tonight, with temperatures in the county between -3C to -7C.
Anyone driving or travelling is advised to be prepared for rain falling on sub-zero surfaces, or surfaces re-freezing after the rain has moved on, leaving potentially treacherous road and pavement conditions.
Rain is also expected in Cumbria tomorrow morning, with intermittent spells of sleet or snow, even at lower levels.
In Barrow the risk of freezing conditions extends until Wednesday afternoon, with snow expected in the early hours of Thursday morning.
The greatest risk of disruption to transport is liable to be across the eastern parts of Cumbria where up to 10cm of snow is possible on ground above 300m.
The higher trans-Pennine routes out of the county and the Kirkstone Pass and Kendal to Shap routes are at risk of some disruption.
Further rain is likely during Thursday evening with more sleet or snow higher up and the possibility of some additional accumulation of snow, typically above 250-300m.
Motorists are reminded to check their vehicle's tyre pressure, reduce speed where necessary and avoid sharp braking.
The county council's gritters will also be deployed across priority areas around Cumbria and residents are urged to access their local grit bins to use on footways.
More information on bins can be found at www.cumbria.gov.uk/roads-transport/highways-pavements/highway-maintenance/wintermaintenance/saltbinsforcumbria.asp

Not entirely sold on iOS4
For me, and my somewhat aged iPod Touch (2G), iOS4 hasn't really been as big a benefit as I'd cautiously hoped.
Going into the upgrade, I knew that I'd not be able to use a Bluetooth keyboard (darn), multitasking (double-darn) and wallpaper images (actually, this one was a surprise).
But I had hoped that since it was an upgrade, my device would show some improvement. For example, I had thought the folders feature would help me organize some of the clutter.
But the way it works, the contents of the folder are represented by small icons on the face of the folder icon. Get a few of them sitting side by side, and they kinda look the same, making it harder to find the right folder containing the app I want to run -- I know, I have to actually read the title of the app. Slower than just checking for a visual clue.
What would work for me is the ability to choose the icon or image to represent the folder, or maybe to tweak the colour of the folder or folder border. Giving a more obvious folder differentiation makes it much easier to quickly find the right one.
Oh, and the battery life. iOS4 seems to drain the battery faster than the previous OS version. Remember, this is an iPod Touch (2G) without multitasking or the other features that could contribute to power loss. It appears to be a somewhat known issue, so perhaps this could be addressed in an update.
So yeah, I'm thinking that I'd be better off back in the previous version of the OS. Things still worked, I was somewhat organized, and my battery lasted longer. Sadly, there doesn't seem to be a way to revert to that previous version.
I've noticed a decrease on the battery life, too. Hope that addressed ASAP.
@Ceridwyn2: it's getting pretty frustrating. I charged up my iPod Touch last night, this morning the battery bar was red. It drained overnight. Something's amiss and Apple needs to look into it.
I think the inability to roll back an OS update is one of the weak spots in the whole system. I wish you could just turn back the **bleep** or something...ah well.

Area Rotary groups to host Elvis-themed race and concert to help end polio worldwide
Expect to see a few hundred enthusiasts of both Elvis and running in downtown Lawrence on June 22. A group of area Rotary Clubs will host a unique event: Elvis Visit to End Polio Now.
The event is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. at Watson Park with a 5K walk and run that will travel around the park and through the Old West Lawrence neighborhood. (Just to be clear, you don't have to wear an Elvis costume to run, but all the cool kids will be.) The Rotary Clubs that evening will host a concert by noted Elvis tribute artist Joseph Hall at 7:30 p.m. at the Lied Center. Unless you are like me, the 5K run and walk shouldn't take you until 7:30. (In my defense, blue suede shoes, a guitar, and 15 pounds of hair oil will slow a guy down.) Organizers will provide lunch to the runners, host several Elvis-themed contests, and also have some tours of Lawrence set up for out-of-town visitors to enjoy before the concert.
The event is part of Rotary's effort to eradicate polio, which is known to still exist in three countries: Pakistan, Nigeria and Afghanistan. Rotary has made eradicating polio by 2018 a major international mission for years, but this is the first time they have enlisted the help of the King. The idea of combining the worldwide brand of Elvis with the worldwide effort to end polio was the brainchild of Lawrence Rotarian Bob Swan.
"I just felt like we needed a new tool to fight polio," said Swan, a member of Lawrence's Central Rotary Club. "We need to do something to get the support of nonRotarians."
Swan had seen Hall — who was a finalist on the television program America's Got Talent — perform several time at Branson, Mo. Swan figured nothing packs in a crowd like Elvis, so he began planting the seed of an Elvis-themed fundraising event.
Members of about a dozen area Rotary Clubs have helped organize the event. Proceeds from both the concert and the run will go to Rotary's worldwide fund to fight polio. Swan said he hopes the event will raise several thousand dollars, and will become a model for area Rotary clubs across the country to use in fundraising.
But if Elvis isn't your thing, there will be another celebrity of a sorts on hand. Mary Jean Eisenhower, a granddaughter of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, is lending her support to the event. Eisenhower — who is a Kansas City area resident and has been a leader of the People to People International organization founded by her grandfather — is a polio survivor, and plans to be on hand for both the race and the concert event.
People interested in more information on either the race or the concert, can find additional details at elvisendspolio.org.
Lawrence city commissioners at their meeting tonight are being asked to give final approval for the group's use of Watson Park for the race and associated events. The item is on the city's consent agenda, so approval is not expected to be a problem.
UPDATE: Since we're talking about Elvis, I also put a call into Downtown Lawrence Inc. to see if it was again planning to host its Elvis Spectacular, an event where numerous Elvis personalities come to downtown. Well, you are in luck King fans. The second annual event is set for Sept. 28. It will be held in conjunction with the Rev It Up car show that is held in and along South Park. Look for more details as the event gets closer. But DLI director tells me the event will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of "Viva Las Vegas."

Popup confirmation would really do the trick. Easier to implement also than re-implementing the whole rating system.

Comments about Zum Clean Granite & Countertop Cleaner, Eucalyptus-Citrus, 16 fl oz:
This cleaner is okay, but it's watery and expensive. I can easily go through a bottle of this in a week. The plastic bottle is not too sturdy, but I like that you can set the knozzle for 'stream' or 'spray'. Best for cleaning countertops, cabinets, bathroom surfaces. Best for light jobs, not for heavy duty cleaning. I prefer the sweet orange scent over this one.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to subterranean well cementing operations, and more particularly, to cement compositions having improved mechanical properties and methods of using same.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Hydraulic cement compositions are commonly utilized in subterranean well completion and remedial operations. For example, hydraulic cement compositions are used in primary cementing operations whereby strings of pipe such as casing and liners are cemented in well bores. In performing primary cementing, a hydraulic cement composition is pumped into the annular space between the walls of a well bore and the exterior surface of the pipe string disposed therein. The cement composition is permitted to set in the annular space, thereby forming an annular sheath of hardened substantially impermeable cement therein that substantially supports and positions the pipe string in the well bore and bonds the exterior surfaces of the pipe string to the walls of the well bore. Hydraulic cement compositions also are used in remedial cementing operations such as plugging highly permeable zones or fractures in well bores, plugging cracks in holes in pipe strings, and the like.
Set cement in wells, and particularly the set cement sheath in the annulus of a well, may fail due to, inter alia, shear and compressional stresses exerted on the set cement. This may be particularly problematic in high temperature wells, which are wells wherein fluids injected into the wells, or produced from the wells by way of the well bore, causes a temperature increase over initial cement setting conditions of at least about 100� F. In these types of wells, set cements often fail as a result of the stresses exerted on the set cement.
The stress exerted on the cement as referred to herein means the force applied over an area resulting from the strain caused by the incremental change of a body's length or volume. The stress is generally thought to be related to strain by a proportionality constant known as Young's Modulus. Young's Modulus is known to characterize the flexibility of a material. In a well bore sealing application, the Young's Modulus is about 30�106 lbf/in2.
There are several stressful conditions that have been associated with well bore cement failures. One example of such a condition results from the relatively high fluid pressures and/or temperatures inside of the set casing during testing, perforation, fluid injection, or fluid production. If the pressure and/or temperature inside the pipe increases, the resultant internal pressure expands the pipe, both radially and longitudinally. This expansion places stress on the cement surrounding the casing causing it to crack, or the bond between the outside surface of the pipe and the cement sheath to fail in the form of, inter alia, loss of hydraulic seal. Another example of such a stressful condition is where the fluids trapped in a cement sheath thermally expand causing high pressures within the sheath itself. This condition often occurs as a result of high temperature differentials created during production or injection of high temperature fluids through the well bore, e.g., wells subjected to steam recovery processes or the production of hot formation fluids. Other stressful conditions that can lead to cement failures include the forces exerted by shifts in the subterranean formations surrounding the well bore or other over-burdened pressures.
Failure of cement within the well bore can result in radial or circumferential cracking of the cement as well as a breakdown of the bonds between the cement and the pipe or between the cement sheath and the surrounding subterranean formations. Such failures can result in at least lost production, environmental pollution, hazardous rig operations, and/or hazardous production operations. A common result is the undesirable presence of pressure at the well head in the form of trapped gas between casing strings. Additionally, cement failures can be particularly problematic in multi-lateral wells, which include vertical or deviated (including horizontal) principal well bores having one or more ancillary, laterally extending well bores connected thereto.
In both conventional single bore wells and multi-lateral wells having several bores, the cement composition utilized for cementing casing or liners in the well bores must develop high bond strength after setting and also have sufficient resiliency, e.g., elasticity and ductility, to resist loss of pipe or formation bonding, cracking and/or shattering as a result of all of the stressful conditions that may plague the well, including impacts and/or shocks generated by drilling and other well operations.
The present invention provides a cement composition having improved mechanical properties including tensile strength and elasticity, and methods for using same.
A preferred method of the present invention comprises the steps of providing a cement composition comprising rubber particles and carbon fibers, introducing the cement composition to a subterranean well bore, and allowing the cement composition to set therein.
One embodiment of the cement compositions of the present invention involves the addition of carbon fibers to a hydraulic cement composition comprising rubber particles, inter alia, to increase the tensile strength of the cement composition. Optionally, other additives suitable for cement compositions such as dispersants, retardants, accelerants, weighting agents, and the like may be added to the cement compositions of the present invention.
The objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art upon a reading of the description of the preferred embodiments which follows.
The present invention provides cement compositions having improved mechanical properties, including elasticity, ductility, and tensile strength, and methods of utilizing these cement compositions in subterranean well cementing applications. While the compositions and methods are useful in a variety of well completion and remedial operations, they are particularly useful in primary cementing, e.g., cementing casings and liners in well bores, including those in multi-lateral subterranean wells.
The improved cement compositions of the present invention generally comprise a hydraulic cement, carbon fibers, rubber particles, and water sufficient to form a pumpable slurry. Other additives suitable for use in subterranean well bore cementing operations also may be added to these compositions if desired.
Any cement suitable for use in subterranean well cementing operations may be used in accordance with the present invention. Preferably, in one embodiment, the improved cement compositions of the present invention comprise a hydraulic cement. A variety of hydraulic cements are suitable for use in the compositions and methods of the present invention including those comprised of calcium, aluminum, silicon, oxygen, and/or sulfur, which set and harden by reaction with water. Such hydraulic cements include but are not limited to, Portland cements, pozzolana cements, gypsum cements, high alumina content cements, silica cements, and high alkalinity cements. A preferred cement is commercially available under the trade designation �THERMALOCK� available from Halliburton Energy Services in Houston, Tex., which is a calcium phosphate cement.
The water utilized in the cement compositions of this invention can be fresh water, salt water (e.g., water containing one or more salts dissolved therein), brine (e.g., saturated salt water produced from subterranean formations), or seawater. Generally, the water can be from any source provided that it does not contain an excess of compounds that adversely affect other components in the cement composition. The water may be present in an amount sufficient to form a pumpable slurry. More particularly, the water is present in the cement compositions in an amount in the range of from about 25% to about 100% by weight of cement therein, more preferably in the range of from about 30% to about 50% by weight of cement material therein.
The carbon fibers that are present in the cement compositions of the present invention preferably have a mean length of about 1 mm or less. In certain preferred embodiments, the mean length of the carbon fibers is from about 50 to about 500 microns. Most preferably, the fibers have a mean length in the range of about 100 to about 200 microns. Preferably, they are milled carbon fibers. An example of suitable carbon fibers includes the commercially available �AGM-94� carbon fibers available from Asbury Graphite Mills Inc. that have a mean length of about 150 microns and a diameter of about 7.2 microns. Preferably, the carbon fibers are present in the amount of about 1% by weight of cement to about 15% by weight of cement in the cement composition.
The rubber particles that may be used in the cement compositions of the present invention may be � inch or less, preferably in the range of about 10/20 to 20/30 mesh. The particles can be obtained from any suitable source. One example of such a suitable source is recycled automobile tires, which may be obtained from, for example, Four D Corporation, Duncan, Oklahoma. Vulcanized rubber particles are suitable. Preferably, the rubber particles are present in the amount of about 5% to about 50% by weight of the cement in the cement composition. The most preferred range is from about 10% to about 40% by weight of cement in the composition.
It has been found that adding rubber particles to a cement composition affects the mechanical properties of the cement composition by, inter alia, improving its elasticity and ductility. This is desirable to counteract the possible stresses the cement may endure. However, when rubber particles are added in quantities sufficient to desirably affect the elasticity of the cement, the tensile strength of the cement is also reduced. The risk of rupture of the cement sheath in response to a stressful condition is directly linked to the tensile strength of the cement, and the risk is attenuated when the ratio of the tensile strength of the cement to its Young's Modulus is increased. Thus, adding carbon fibers to a cement composition that comprises rubber particles is desirable to increase the tensile strength of the cement composition containing the rubber particles. Also, adding carbon fibers as opposed to other additives, such as polypropylene, has the added benefit of providing increased temperature stability to the cement composition. This makes the cement compositions of the present invention especially suitable for use in or in conjunction with hostile well bore conditions, such as high temperatures and/or high pressures.
As will be recognized by those skilled in the art, when the cement compositions of the present invention are utilized for primary or remedial subterranean well operation, such compositions can also include additional suitable additives, for example, dispersants, fluid loss agents, weighting materials, and the like. While a variety of dispersants known to those skilled in the art may be used in accordance with the present invention, a preferred dispersing agent is a water-soluble polymer prepared by the caustic catalyzed condensation of formaldehyde with acetone wherein the polymer contains sodium sulfate groups. Such a preferred dispersing agent is commercially available under the trade designation �CFR-3� from Halliburton Energy Services of Duncan, Okla. Another suitable dispersant is commercially available under the trade designation �CFR-2� from Halliburton Energy Services in Duncan, Okla.
The cement compositions of the present invention also can include other additives such as accelerants or retarders, if desired. If an accelerant is used, the accelerant is preferably calcium chloride and is present in an amount in the range from about 1.0% to about 2.0% by weight of the cement in the compositions. Fluid loss additives such as hydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, carboxymethylhydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylguar, guar, polyvinylalcohol, or polyvinylacetate are also suitable.
An example of a preferred cement composition of the present invention is a composition of THERMALOCK calcium phosphate cement, sufficient water to form a pumpable slurry, 1% by weight of the cement CFR-3 dispersant, 20% by weight of the cement 20/30 mesh rubber particles, and 5% by weight of the cement milled carbon fibers having a mean length of 150 microns.
A preferred method of the present invention comprises providing a cement composition that comprises rubber particles and carbon fibers; introducing this cement composition to a subterranean well bore; and allowing the cement composition to set therein.
To facilitate a better understanding of the present invention, the following examples of some of the preferred embodiments are given. In no way should such examples be read to limit the scope of the invention.
Test samples of preferred embodiments of the cement compositions of the present invention were made and the tensile strength of each composition was determined. Comparative samples were also made and similarly tested. To prepare the samples of the cement compositions, THERMALOCK calcium phosphate cement was mixed with 35% by weight of the cement water, and cured for 14 days at 600� F. To certain sample cement composition, rubber particles and/or carbon fibers were added in chosen ratios as described in Table 1. The rubber particles were 20/30 mesh rubber particles derived from recycled automobile tires and obtained from Four D Corporation of Duncan, Okla. The carbon fibers were milled fibers, specifically AGM-94 fibers from Asbury Graphite Mills Inc., with a mean length of 150 microns and a diameter of 7.2 microns. The tensile strength of each cement composition was then determined. All tests were performed in accordance with ASTM C190-85.
Table 1 below lists the percentage of rubber particles and carbon fibers that were added to each cement composition and the resultant tensile strength.
Comparative Sample No. 1 illustrates the tensile strength of a cement composition when neither rubber particles nor carbon fibers have been added to the composition. This was used as a control sample. The tensile strength was 480 psi.
Comparative Sample No. 2 illustrates the tensile strength of a cement composition containing milled carbon fibers but not rubber particles. The tensile strength was 510 psi, increased from Comparative Sample No. 1.
Comparative Sample No. 3 illustrates the tensile strength of a cement composition comprising rubber particles. As is evident from Table 1, the addition of 20/30 mesh rubber particles to the cement composition reduces the tensile strength of the cement. The tensile strength was 60 psi.
As can be seen from Sample 4, which is an typical composition of the present invention, by adding milled carbon fibers to the cement composition comprising mesh rubber particles, the tensile strength of the cement comprising the mesh rubber particles was increased by a factor of 5 to 300 psi; thus, indicating that the tensile strength of the cement was enhanced by the addition of the carbon fibers.
Therefore, the present invention is well-adapted to carry out the objects and attain the ends and advantages mentioned as well as those which are inherent therein. While numerous changes may be made by those skilled in the art, such changes are encompassed within the spirit of this invention as defined by the appended claims.

Madama Palace
Presently the seat of the Senate of the Italian Republic, Madama Palace is a majestic building located on Corso Rinascimento, just two steps from Piazza Navona. Erected in the 15th Century by Pope Sixtus IV, Madama Palace was repeatedly restored and designated for numerous uses: an artistic meeting place during the Renaissance, an upper-class residence in the 17th Century, tribunal and Police headquarters in the 18th Century.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Avoid 'agent hazard' when trying to sell your home
It can help you get the best price
A house is your biggest investment, yet people spend more time shopping for a colour TV than on how they buy or sell a home.
Just as a financial adviser can have a tremendous impact on your financial well-being, so can a real estate agent. And yet, most people choose them based on who they know. They might be a cousin, a friend of a friend or some vague acquaintance.
Given these people influence the price of your biggest asset, that's just dumb.
A friend of mine told me she was selling her house in Calgary. I suggested an agent who charges less than the going rate -- two per cent as opposed to seven per cent on the first $100,000 and three per cent on the rest. But she told me her husband's good friend was going to take care of it. I told she should really consider calling my agent, whom I knew to be hard-working and less expensive. But she said she couldn't say no to her husband's friend; it was too embarrassing.
About a week later, she told me the agent had sold her house in two days, and I was wrong to suggest she could have done better. Of course, what she didn't understand was that selling in two days was a red flag: The market was slow, so it suggested the agent priced it too low. Sure enough, it sold below asking, and when I asked my agent friend to show me recent transactions for her neighbourhood, I learned it was also priced too low.
The "agent hazard" arises for two reasons: First, emotions are involved. You don't want to say no to a friend. Second, arithmetic is involved also, and as I've said in this space many times, most people are just not good at math.
They think small percentages mean small numbers. But they don't.
To return to my friend, she sold her house -- well, the agent did -- for $440,000, charging $17,200 in commission (which was shared with the buyer's agent unless he represented both, in which case he got it all).
That was, as far as I could tell, a minimum of $15,000 less than similar homes had sold for in her immediate area around the same time. Had she used a discount agent, and had he got her a market price, she'd have pocketed an extra $23,100 -- after everything.
Am I saying she should have hired a discount agent? Not necessarily. Full-price agents despise discounters and will always say "you get what you pay for," implying that paying, say, two per cent means you get much less service and, by extension, a lower selling price.
But that's clearly not true. House prices have done well over the past decade or so, and commissions earned by agents have also gone up a lot. Are they really working harder today? Of course not. In fact, I'd argue, and many agents have confirmed this to me, their work is easier thanks to technology such as MLS, iPads and BlackBerrys.
What I am saying is my friend paid full price and got what I would consider discount service. Her agent could have worked harder. The trouble with the traditional agent pricing is there's little incentive for an agent to fight hard for an extra $15,000. I sold my house once in a bidding war on a Saturday night. The bidding was exciting and kept pushing the price up. Then, all of a sudden, my agent accepted an offer without giving the other party a chance to counter. I insisted he do so, and they came back $10,000 higher.
So why would my agent not try to get another bid? "It's a good enough offer. Let's not be greedy," is what he said, which is absurd. The fact is, of that extra $10,000, he'd only earn $150 (three per cent shared with the buyer's agent). He'd already earned thousands, so an extra $150 wasn't worth another half-hour of time on a Saturday night.
It's true to a point you get what you pay for. Never hire an agent based solely on price. An agent who charges half the regular commission would have saved my friend $8,600 -- provided he got the same price as a full-price realtor. But if that full-service realtor gets only a five per cent better price, my friend would be almost $13,000 richer using him after everything.
When you hire an agent, leave emotions and friendship out of it. Stick to math and track record. Ask the agent to prove to you he'll get you the best price, after commissions. In other words, do some work.
