Betty Dain SleepWear Satinette
Sarah K.United StatesHairMedium BrownDry HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairOkayThe elastic cuts into my forehead, and I find it uncomfortable to keep my hair in it all night. It also adds a lot of heat, which is almost unsustainable for sleeping. I have a ton of hair, and it was hard to fit it all under the cap. I think it makes more sense to buy the satin pillowcases from the same brand, as they only cost a bit more and are far more comfortable.posted Apr 12, 2013Link to this post
ChaikaHairAuburnNormal HairCurly HairColor Treated HairProtects Hair, But Scratchy And UncomfortableI really wanted to love this cap. I was looking for a way to keep my below shoulder length hair from getting messed up when I slept and a satin bonnet seemed to be a perfect solution. I have a bigger than average head, but this cap is plenty large and has lots of room for even more hair than I have, so it should fit anyone. The satin is good quality and the cap does protect my hair from getting tangled as I sleep. The problem is that the elastic and edging are scratchy and uncomfortable, so the cap often wakes me up and I end up sleeping without it. I'm still looking for the perfect solution for my hair at night.posted Jan 19, 2013Link to this post

This charming film follows the journey of an aspiring comedian in denial about his girlfriend, his career, and, most significantly, his sleepwalking disorder.

text: On the cards where re-clocking worked, I am very happy with the results. It gives me hope that the GF9400M in my laptop (MBP 13") will continue to work acceptably in the future even if Nvidia stops releasing binary driver updates. Once the OpenCL support is to an acceptable state, the only thing holding me back from switching might be battery life, which I haven't done a comparison of recently. If re-clocking works correctly on that card (which it might already), then switching should be fairly painless.

I believe the secret of being a happy consumer is by reading about products, doing research, and then taking the plunge. Henceforth, my review of the Tepekiie Two-side Open Coffee Table. After looking around a bit and doing some research online I really wanted something that would be a bit different. I looked at several styles and, ultimately, chose this table. Overall, I am very happy with it. However, keep in mind, this piece of furniture is not going to last that lxong, it will get banged up and scratched and the finish willcome off. However, it is exceptionally sturdy and quite easy to build. It is even forgiving if you mess up. Now, this table looks uitra cool and utra modern. It livens up a dull room and really opens up a space. It is an inexpensive way to change a few things around. I bught this table on other recommendations by Overstock customers and I was not disappointed! Write reviews folks! People read them!
The coffee table was shipped to me in great condition. After an easy assembly process I had the coffee table sitting in the middle of my living room. The feel of the whole table is pretty solid and not cheap. Having the drawer space in the table was a huge plus for me. Just a bit of information about the drawer, it can only open in one direction at a time since it's one solid drawer. This is in no way a problem but I just thought that it was interesting once I finished assembling it and found that out. Still loving this thing.
This is a great coffee table for anyone. It's a bit dark, but I like dark wood. The table is really solid and should last a while. I'm very happy with this purchase.
We loved this coffee table online. The price was fantastic and the styling was so unique, but we were concerned about the reviews that indicated the product arrived damaged. We were right to be concerned. The first time it arrived, nearly half the pieces were significantly scratched or damaged. Aside from big scratches the other major damage was crumpled corners. The product is MDF. Overstock was very helpful though and offered to ship out replacement parts immediately. So many were damaged they just sent a whole new table. Unfortunately this one ALSO arrived with nearly half the pieces damaged. At this point I was becoming very frustrated. Overstock offered to refund us, but we needed a coffee table and wanted this one. I kept stressing that a lot of the damage didn't look like it happened in transit, but was defective from the factory. The boxes were not damaged in any way, but the interior pieces were. Finally, a third complete table arrived. Even with extra, extra, extra care given to the packaging (it was bubble wrapped 3 in thick all around the outside of the original packaging) some of the pieces inside were damaged! But, with three complete tables we were able to mix and match enough pieces to construct 1 complete coffee table. What was doubly frustrating about this was that they would not expedite shipping on any of the replacement orders, so each replacement round took 7-10 days. The entire process took just over a month. We're happy with the finished product, and dealing with Overstock's customer support was, if not pleasant, reasonable and mostly helpful. This experience made us very wary of ordering from Overstock, but the purchase we made directly after this one (a rug) went smoothly and more than exceeded our expectations. Bottom line, I think the product itself is defective. You might get lucky and get one that's fine, or you might have to do what we did and scrounge from three separate shipments to put together 1 complete table. You have to decide whether or not it's worth it to you to to invest that much time and effort to get a great deal on a unique piece.
It is particle board. Has scratches and is easily scratcheds. This is the first item that I have been disappointed with as far as Overstock is concerned. It is easy to put together but it is very very poor quality. I guess I should have figured that out with the price. But it still was not worth what I paid.
Both functional and gorgeous
This table really added a nice touch to my basement. I love the drawer that opens from either side. My guests are always impressed.
Very well built and sturdy
Have had this for about a year now and still looks nice and holding up nicely.
Love this table. It really adds flair to our living area. Very Modern and Sleek.

RATINGS: 585 WEIGHTED AVG: 4.01 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 330 ABV: 11%
COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION Stone Imperial Russian Stout is so thick, rich and well, sinful, you might worry that youll be doomed to the fiery pits just for thinking about a sip. It almsot seems evil. Rest assured, however, that even though this seemingly pernicious brew is indeed as black as sin, we guarantee that no actual sin was committed in its production...youll have to add that on your own. This Odd Year addition was brewed in the authentic, historical style of an imperial russian stout, but with the addition of several hundred pounds of espresso beans from our friends at Ryan Bros. Coffee. Actually, this could be considered historically accurate, since the Russian nobility were as fond of earthy breakfast beverages as they were of hearty dark beers. Catherine the Great herself bolstered her finesse for ruling an empire by drinking five cups of black coffee every morning during her lengthy reign. While we couldnt fit five cups coffee in every bottle of this darkly delicious libation, we assure you that the deep, rich espresso flavors are unmistakable and meld beautifully with the roasty bitterness of the dark malts. Catherine would have whole-heartedly approved.

Kluber seeks repeat performance against Royals
Kansas City counters with Vargas in opener of two-game set with Tribe
Corey Kluber probably has some fond memories of the Royals.
After all, the Indians right-hander pitched the first complete game of his career the last time he faced Kansas City, holding its lineup to one unearned run on four hits on April 24. He exhibited stellar command in doing so, striking out 11 batters while walking none.
"He handcuffed us," Royals manager Ned Yost said after the game. "He threw a great game. We couldn't do anything with him, nothing all day long."
Since then, Kluber's resume has only gotten stronger. He posted a sparkling 2.09 ERA and six quality starts in May, striking out 60 batters in 43 innings, and has continually made the case that he is Cleveland's most dominant and reliable starter.
Kluber's last outing, a meeting with the Red Sox at Progressive Field, wasn't the best of starts -- his effort yielded four runs and lasted 6 1/3 innings. But, as Indians manager Terry Francona pointed out, that simply reflects on how dominant Kluber's other performances have been this year.
"If that's him not at his best, that's pretty good," Francona said.
Kluber -- notable for his incredibly even-keel demeanor regardless of how he pitches -- was not fazed by the start.
"I think if you start worrying about your record in May, you're kind of fighting an uphill battle," he said. "There's so much of the season left that, maybe if you kind of stay the course and continue to play good, you're capable of getting on a roll like we have this homestand, and things can turn out in your favor."
Opposite Kluber in Tuesday's opener, the Royals will turn to left-hander Jason Vargas after Monday night's series finale with the Yankees was postponed due to rain. The Royals had won two of the first three games of the series and have taken seven of their last 11 contests.
Vargas (5-2, 3.28 ERA) has turned in another fine season thus far. Already he has 10 quality starts under his belt, and he has not given up more than two runs in any of his last three outings.
He held the Tribe to three runs in six innings on April 23, fanning two and walking two.
Indians: Chisenhall goes yard three times
Lonnie Chisenhall could do absolutely no wrong against the Rangers on what was a historic Monday night for the young infielder.
In five at-bats, Chisenhall collected a career-high five hits, nine RBIs and three home runs. In doing so, he became the first player in franchise history with at least that many hits, home runs and RBIs in a single game and just the fourth player to do so in the past 100 years.
On the heels of the performance, Chisenhall raised his season slash line to .385/.429/.615. The 25-year-old left-handed hitter has recorded a hit in 18 of his last 21 games and owns a seven-game hitting streak entering Tuesday.
"He's been a big part of about everything we've done," Francona said before Monday's game. "He's played first. He's played third. He's DH'd. He's hitting lefties. He's been in the middle, it seems like, all our rallies. He's running the bases. He's been a big shot for us."
Royals: Joseph added to bullpen
Kansas City called up left-handed reliever Donnie Joseph from Triple-A Omaha ahead of Tuesday's tilt with the Indians.
Joseph owns a 3.91 ERA in 17 appearances with the Storm Chasers this season, fanning 28 batters in 23 innings pitched. The Royals optioned reliever Wilking Rodriguez to Omaha in order to make room for the southpaw.
"Lot of lefties in Cleveland," Yost said. "Helps us match up."
Entering Monday, the Indians have hit a collective .242 against lefties this season.
Worth noting
• The Royals and Indians have met 614 times in their history, with Cleveland (316-298) holding the overall series advantage.
• The Indians have accumulated 10 or more hits in each of their last six games. They are 21-6 this season when reaching a double-digit hit total.
• Royals reliever Wade Davis has not allowed a run in his last 15 appearances. He owns a 1.27 ERA this season, fanning 46 over 28 1/3 innings, and has yet to give up an extra-base hit.

When a group of friends from college or high school who haven't talked to/seen each other in a long time all comment on a mutual friend's Facebook status, usually about something they all agree on or feel strongly about.
It was great catching up with the class of '87 on that status reunion last night. I'm glad we can all agree that the latest episode of "Breaking Bad" was the shit.

That's good advice, DMC, to just laugh at the phools, but I felt obliged to send a letter to The Columbian editors. They replied that it was too long. I need to get this down to under 200 words:
Shame on The Columbian for publishing hate letters such as Jim Souder's "Why are bicyclists not taxed?" of Thursday, June 16, 2011, filled with trite allegations long since proven false. Once again, let's debunk all of those claims: "Why are bicyclists not taxed?" I ride a bike sometimes so I suppose I am a "bicyclist," among other things. I also own property and motor vehicles, work, shop, recreate and pay taxes here. I know that other bicyclists pay taxes, too. So, bicyclists are taxed. "Why does the general public dislike bicycle riders?" I'm a member of the general public and I don't dislike bicycle riders. I don't think I am alone in that, and I'd even guess that a majority of citizens have no general dislike for most bike riders (certainly, rude individuals of any category incur disfavor). "I will give you a few answers. Riders of bicycles seem to think that traffic laws do not apply to them they dont stop at stop signs, they ride on sidewalks and they also ride in traffic lanes, even if a bike lane exists." Every day, vastly more motor vehicle operators violate traffic laws than do bike riders, and the results of their violations are far more damaging, costly and dangerous than those of bike riders. Watch a stop sign in your neighborhood; how many cars come to a complete stop? Bike riders, like car drivers, should obey the law. Most do, most of the time, to a reasonable degree. Bicycles can be legally operated on either roads or sidewalks. Washington (like most states) does not have a mandatory side-path law and bikes are legally allowed in car lanes, yet most bike riders use a bike lane if one is available and safe (many are poorly configured with gutters, drains and door-zone hazards outweighing any benefit). "Why did our city spend my tax dollars on paint for bike lanes? Why did the city spend my tax dollars to place signs that tell me to 'Share the Road'?" Your tax dollars, like mine, go into a pool which benefits us all. While we all have a say over who manages those budgets and how, we don't get to say how the particular dollars we contribute are distributed. Never have, never will. "I would rather have my tax dollars be used to repair our streets in order that we who drive cars and pay the taxes can have a decent street to drive on." Bike riders also like well-maintained paving. Bikes do very little damage to street paving compared to cars and trucks, so road maintenance costs due to bike usage is almost nil. "Are bicycles taxed? No. Why not?" Bicycle sales are taxed, just like car sales. Bikes don't pay license fees here, and most everywhere that has tried licensing bikes has found that any appropriate fees do not generate enough revenue to pay for the bureaucracy needed to administer and enforce the program. (For example, San Jose recently stopped licensing bikes, and there are many other examples of places where it hasn't worked.) Moreover, automobile user fees (fuel tax, registration, tolls, etc.) cover only part of public road costs. For federally funded roads, about two-thirds of the cost is covered by user fees, the rest comes from general funds paid for by all tax payers. Car user fees cover an even smaller fraction of local roads, for example in Seattle, gas taxes pay for roughly four percent of road costs. Registration fees go to WSDOT for state roads, not cities, and again don't cover anywhere near the total road budget. So, we all pay for roads and those who don't drive or drive less (such as some who ride bikes more) end up effectively subsidizing those who drive more. Some sources for those facts are: http://www.vtpi.org/whoserd.pdf http://publicola.com/2010/08/31/we-a...for-the-roads/ http://www.uspirg.org/home/reports/r...tation-funding http://www.grist.org/article/2010-09...ould-be-unfair Of course, more bike riders also means fewer cars competing for space on the roads and parking spots, cleaner air, soil and water, healthier urban areas, healthier populace with lower medical costs and less use of scarce oil resources. But bike riders are still paying their share of taxes even when they aren't the ones incurring the costs. Perhaps Mr. Souder might like to try a nice bike ride this summer, and I promise I won't even dislike him for it if I encounter him while I'm in my car. |

Alan, I really liked your rebuttal to the Columbian letter to the editor. I don't see how you can get it down to 200 words, it's all very good info!
I would suggest going for the meat-and-potatoes: "Bicycle sales are taxed, just like car sales. Bikes don't pay license fees here, and most everywhere that has tried licensing bikes has found that any appropriate fees do not generate enough revenue to pay for the bureaucracy needed to administer and enforce the program. (For example, San Jose recently stopped licensing bikes, and there are many other examples of places where it hasn't worked.)

So, we all pay for roads and those who don't drive or drive less (such as some who ride bikes more) end up effectively subsidizing those who drive more. " |
Thanks, Haven, that's a really good condensation of what I wanted to say, and I might just crib it in the future. I didn't get my reply edited down in time but fortunately two other Columbian readers did respond eloquently a few days after that misinformed post:
http://www.columbian.com/news/2011/j...irly-maligned/ http://www.columbian.com/news/2011/j...pay-taxes-too/ Those both made the deadtree edition. |
Raod Tax Misconceptions
Even most cyclists dont understand taxes and insurance. It is not because you also own a car that you pay road taxes it is because you own or rent property and pay income taxes. Here is why:
Most roads are constructed by private developers who pass the cost onto the business and individuals that buy the property. You pay for this in the purchase price of your home, your rent, or consumer product retail prices. Many other roads actually predate the automobile and automobile taxes. Most downtown city streets and county road right of way was established by 1910. Long before the widespread use of the automobile. Horses, oxen, street cars and bicyclists all outnumbered cars. General fund tax money is used for street maintenance and upgrades, while vehicular and gas taxes are used only for roads. You pay for this with your property and income taxes. If you dont use a car you are subsidizing those that do. Cyclist liability is covered under their homeowners and renters personal liability insurance, but they are so unlikely to need this coverage that most cyclists dont even know they have it. About 10% of drivers dont have insurance and they know they are required by law to have insurance. Please help educate others on how roads are funded. |
Thanks, t27, that's a good summary. My purpose for collecting all those URLs is to provide authoritative references to back up those statements.

Thanks for keeping this active...
I'm sorry I've been a bit too busy to post... lately. I've been quietly feeding Jonathan interesting story tidbits I find online. Due to my studies, and the distance involved in getting to and from school, my riding has been very limited of late. Hopefully I'll be able to change that after I graduate.
/me waves
Hey K'Tesh! Nice to see you! Yeah, things are a little quiet after the forums were turned back on, but that's understandable. It's a good thing for school to be engaging, so I fully understand your priorities, and I see you comment on Jonathan's articles occasionally so I know you're around.
Speaking of regulars here, I also saw Lynn mention that she had a hard encounter with a car. I'm very glad she came out of it with relatively minor injuries but too bad about the nice Riv Bleriot. I'd say "get well soon" but seeing as she's already cranking out 200kms, I think that is overcome by events. |
I'll be ok. Eventually
Thanks for the good wishes.
The knee is still tender on the kneecap, and the whole left side musculature is not back to where it should be. Yes, I am cranking out 200kms. The first try was a fail at 86 miles. The next weekend was better. But you know, I have not commuted to work since then. I can claim freezing fog (I work in Hillsboro at the Intel Fog Generator Machine) and effort to get another bike ready to commute on (borrow 700c generator wheel, buy new rear wheel because the freewheel checked out), but really, I am feeling just a tiny bit chicken. Next week. Yeah. |

LAKE TAHOE — There are few feelings that beat those that come at the end of a long backpacking trip when you get a chance to sit down, draw a deep breath, take off your boots and just enjoy the scenery.
That's how Patricia Lopez, 56, felt when she completed the 165-mile loop around Lake Tahoe in August along with the nine other Tahoe Rim Trail Association Thru-Hike participants.
"It was great. I was happy. I thought 'Thank God, I can sleep in a bed, I don't have to hike today,'" Lopez said.
The seasonal Tahoe City resident had hiked portions of the trail before the trip, but didn't have much experience on long backpacking expeditions. When she saw TRTA offered a 15-day thru-hike that circled the whole lake, she decided to sign up.
TRTA, a nonprofit established in 1981 to plan, construct and maintain the Tahoe Rim Trail, started the annual thru-hikes 11 years ago. The trips continue not as a fundraiser but rather as a powerful way to connect basin residents and visitors with the natural beauty of the area, TRTA Director of Trail Use Jaime Souza said.
"It's one of the most unique programs we do. Not everyone will want to hike the whole trail in one shot, but for the ones that do it's a huge experience. It helps people see that they can achieve so much through hiking and backpacking," Souza said.
On Aug. 4, Lopez and her fellow hikers left the first trailhead around 11 a.m., the start of relatively short day as the group headed south toward Star Lake. Excited and enthusiastic, Lopez said the team burned up the miles. And as they did so, there was a collective realization of just how many feet of trail still lay ahead.
"After that first day, myself and everyone else realized that it was going to be a lot tougher than we all thought. We were all too enthusiastic and we started off too fast," Lopez said.
The 165-mile hike is not for the faint of heart. Hikers looking to complete the loop in 15 days will average about 11 miles of hiking a day. According to TRTA elevation profiles, there's more than 24,000 feet of climbing over the entire hike — almost 5,000 feet higher than Mount Kilimanjaro — and the highest point sits at 10,338 feet above sea level.
"It's hard. What we were realizing was that people weren't taking the hike seriously enough in terms of the physical challenge," Souza said.
Luckily for the hikers, the association provides ample support on the trips. TRTA guides, certified in CPR and wilderness first aid, lead the daily routes. They also act as coaches for the participants, helping them through the pre-hike training and preparation. TRTA provides breakfast and dinner each day, as well as free gear rental, wilderness permits, cooking fuel and a Rim Trail guide book.
And of course, there are the trail angels. The angels drive a TRTA trailer packed with fresh food, water and extra gear to various meeting points along the trail where hikers can resupply and load up on some needed calories.
"We can run errands for them too. Whatever they want, we're there to help them out and ease the trip," August trail angel Nancy Cline said.
Cline said she's brought anything from the traditional moleskin to a bottle of scotch up to the camps. An aptly named role, hikers are always overjoyed to see the angels, she said.
Cline and her husband, Jim, volunteered to help with the thru-hike because she said they wanted to give back to an association that devotes so many resources to maintaining the Rim Trail.
Volunteering is part of TRTA's legacy. Volunteers built long sections of the trail's backbone, finally completed in September 2001, and most of the thru-hike staff are unpaid.
Since 2001, more than 1,200 people have joined the exclusive TRTA 165-mile club. To join, a member must have traversed the entire loop either on foot, on horseback or on a bike. Some members might have done the whole route in one go, while others might have taken years to complete it.
On Aug. 18, Lopez and her fellow thru-hikers became 165-milers. Everyone who started the route ended the route, a first in TRTA Thru-Hike history. After more than two weeks on the trail, the hikers got a chance to take off their boots and enjoy the view.
"It was great. To me, it was a real accomplishment to get back out there and do a two-week backpacking trip. Getting out there everyday, I'd never done anything like that. It was kind of spiritual in that I saw that the active person I was before I married and had kids is still there. That girl is still in me," Lopez said.

Ball Bearing Hinge: Ball bearing hinges are designed to handle the extra stress brought on by high traffic doorways. The greased bearings reduce the rotational friction extending the life of a hinge in heavy use situations. These hinges tend to be more durable than standard, or plain bearing hinges.
Material - Solid Brass: Solid brass is made from copper and zinc and is prized for its resilience, durability, and beauty. Solid brass can always be polished back to its original sheen and is highly resistant to rusting. Solid brass is often available in finishes that other hinge materials are not.
Mounting: The standard corners for mortised door hinges are 1/4" radius, 5/8" radius and square corner. It is recommended that three hinges be used on doors up to and including 7.5 feet with one additional hinge for each additional 2.5 feet. Make sure you check your current hinges before making a purchase.

Delilah, the most-listened-to-woman on radio in the Her distinctive blend of story-telling, sympathetic listening and encouragement -- all scored with adult contemporary soft rock -- makes her top ranked in most markets among women 25-54. Delilah says her show is a "safety zone where listeners take off their armor, slip into a 'Mr. Rogers' cardigan, sit around the electronic hearth and share their secrets." She adds that her audience is "just like me and the two women working on the show, who were once listeners. We are single parents who work hard to strike a balance between family and work life. We also enjoy our friendships and remember to laugh as much as possible." |
As a single mother of 10 children, seven of whom she adopted, Delilah has established a foundation called Point Hope as a voice for forgotten children everywhere. The immediate focus of the Foundation is on refugee children in
In addition to a passion for children and radio, Delilah is devoted to music because "it touches the heart the way nothing else can." Her father had a Country-Western band, and her brother played in a Jazz band. Though she writes lyrics, she cannot sing. Delilah says, "I always wanted to be a performer, but I can't sing, dance or act. Luckily, I found I could talk!"
Delilah, loves her work "because it has allowed me to bring together a distinct community of people who reach out to help one another. We don't try to fix people. We listen. We sympathize. We empathize. If the show has a message, it's listen to your own gut. Trust your own intuition. Go where it leads. Don't give up."
Daily broadcasts, caring for her children, running a foundation, writing books, traveling and public speaking add up to a very busy life for Delilah. And she wouldn't have it any other way.
You can send a dedication to Delilah at firstname.lastname@example.com and visit her official website at Delilah.com.

Guide to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of conditions from A to Z.
Cardiac rehabilitation is a doctor-supervised program for people who have most kinds of heart disease. Program participants may or may not have had a heart attack or heart surgery (or other heart procedures). Cardiac rehabilitation can often improve functional capacity, reduce symptoms, and create a sense of well-being for patients.
Conditions or cardiac procedures that may necessitate cardiac rehabilitation may include, but are not limited to, the following:
Angina pectoris
Myocardial infarction (heart attack)
Post-open heart surgery
Post-heart transplantation
Balloon angioplasty
Stent placement
Congenital heart disease
Rheumatic heart disease
Heart failure
Cardiac rehabilitation programs can be conducted while a person is a hospital inpatient or on an outpatient basis. Many skilled professionals are part of the cardiac rehabilitation team, including any or all of the following:
Cardiologist or cardiovascular surgeon
Other specialty doctors
Rehabilitation specialists
Registered dietitian and nutritionist
Physical therapist
Occupational therapist
Speech or language therapist
Psychologist or psychiatrist
Recreational therapist
Vocational therapist
A cardiac rehabilitation program is designed to meet the needs of the individual patient, depending on the specific heart problem or disease, and should be supervised by a cardiac doctor and a team of cardiac professionals. The program's length may range from six weeks to a year or longer and will depend on your specific needs.
The goal of cardiac rehabilitation is to help patients reverse their symptoms and maximize cardiac function. Cardiac rehabilitation includes, but is not limited to, the following activities:
Establishing a progressive exercise program to build fitness and functional capacity
Providing educational classes to help adjust to or change the patient's lifestyle and habits, such as:
Smoking cessation classes
Nutrition classes
Offering stress management techniques and techniques to reduce anxiety
Counseling and educating the patient with regard to his or her specific heart condition or disease and the best management approach for that specific condition

Accurate "Bullseye" pinpointing on coin size targets up to 3" deep in discriminate mode - 2 1/2" in pinpoint mode!
Light weight, waterproof/submersible 9" x 1" diameter probe mounts nicely along the Explorer's battery compartment. Very compact, ultra light switch box mounted on bottom of upper shaft makes for easy switching from coil to probe. Makes coil changes super fast as coil cable will no longer be inserted into upper shaft! Partially coiled cable reduces cable sagging while sweeping coil. X-1 gives operator ALL of the same functions as stock coil including accurate visual and audible target ID in both Smartfind & Digital mode,
non-motion pinpoint, etc.
Accurate approximate depth indications from tip of probe to target can be achieved through visual observation of the Whites depth gauge (although the scale will be different). Scale is explained in DX-1 instructions. Accuracy on coin size targets only. No external buzzers or lights are needed as all targets are heard clearly through your detector headphones!

Steve,Are you going to update any of the other recipes?DKM
<snip>Remove from the refrigerator and top like you would any other pizza crust. I baked it at 500 degrees on a pizza stone for 14 minutes. The oven was preheated for about 40 minutes prior to the pizza going in.
Pierre you get the prize for the most symmetrical pizza.Looks mighty tasty.Randy
Hey! Where the heck can I get my hands on a pizza pan. I wanna try that recipe by xPHmgr cause I think Pizza Hut makes the best crusts. Anyways, all I keep finding are those flat, grey, teflon coated, $3.99 pans at Loblaws.

Welcome to eClinPath, an online textbook on Veterinary Clinical Pathology
The goal of this site is to be an educational resource on veterinary clinical pathology – an "on-line" textbook as it were. We hope this will be a valuable resource, as are the several available paper textbooks on this discipline. We continually strive to update and modify the site and appreciate your feedback. We hope you like our new look!
The site is organized into sections as indicated by the tabs and top navigation bar (calculations, case of the month). Each section provides detailed information on related topics and is continually updated so keep checking (and stay tuned for more). All the information from our old site is here, much of which has been updated (those sections that are not updated will be in due course). Some sections have new information (e.g. test basics) but are still not to the point where we wish them to be. Our clinical pathology data calculators, cytology and exotics pages are definitely works in progress.
- Atlas: This is a quick reference guide that provides various clinical pathologic images, including hematology (e.g. normal leukocytes and erythrocytes by species), urine sediment examination (e.g. crystals, cells), and cytology. We plan to add a lot more, so stay tuned. This section of the site is currently not searchable using the generic search tool, but this will change.
- Case of the month: Challenge yourself with classic and interesting cases we have seen at Cornell University. Search our index for old cases! As for the Atlas, this section is currently not searchable through the generic search tool.
- Calculations: This takes you to conversion formula (standard international to conventional units) and other clinical pathologic-related calculations, e.g. red blood cell indices (e.g. mean cell volume), reticulocyte counts (e.g. absolute reticulocyte count), fractional excretion of electrolytes (e.g. sodium). Under construction.
- Test basics: Information on reference intervals, non-disease variables that impact test results (e.g. hemolysis, lipemia, icterus, including a table that summarizes common artifacts seen with laboratory tests). We plan to add sections on quality control concepts (accuracy, precision, bias) and statistical concepts important to clinical pathology (e.g. sensitivity, specificity).
- Hematology: Information on all aspects of hematology and is organized into sections based on cell types in blood (leukocytes, erythrocytes and platelets). See also the Atlas for image compilations.
- Hemostasis: Information on the physiology of hemostasis, clinical signs, diagnostic testing (including sample collection), hemostatic disorders and transfusion medicine.
- Urinalysis: Information on urine production and urine components (chemicals, cells, casts, crystals). See also the Atlas for image compilations.
- Chemistry: Information on sample collection, chemistry analytes (provided on most biochemical panels), techniques used to measure variables (e.g. potentiometry, electrophoresis) and organ function.
- Cytology: Information on sample collection and expected cytologic findings with different processes. See also the atlas for image compilations. Under construction.
- Exotics: Clinical pathologic testing of exotic animal species (reptiles, amphibians, small mammals). Under construction.
