Look around the kitchen section of a Dollar Store, or such, and find a collander or sieve that has the right size holes. Or you could punch a bunch of 1/4" holes in a coffee can lid, dump media/brass in can and shake (upside down, of course) out the media, or spend $$ on a "Media Separator" from Midway, Natchez, Dillon, etc.

I have a media separator (look on Midwayusa.com if you do not know what that is.). If you do not want to spring for a media separator, place your cases in a mesh sack (like bagged onions come in), tie it closed, then drop it into your tumbler. When done tumbling, pick up the bag and roll it over the bowl to get the tumbling media out of the cases.

You can either look around for a colander/bowl that actually works well, or modify one with big slits or holes to clear the media out. A cover over the colander is handy as it lessens dust somewhat.
The Midway one costs about $25 or so w/o the 5 gal bucket. The above pic of the improvised colander media seperator would be much funnier with it was surrounded by spilled media, and there was an angry wife in the background. |

I stumbled on a cheap, effective method to separate brass and media.
Go to Lowes, get two buckets, one larger than the other. Punch a LOT of 3/8" holes in the bottom of the smaller one. Dump media and brass into the bucket, shake and twist vigorously for a minute or so and voila....the brass will be in the perforated bucket and media in the larger. |

I dump all the media and brass into a shoebox or similar.
Then I take a dollar-store kitty litter poop scoop, scoop up some brass/media and shake. Repeat as required. The media goes back in the shoebox (well, most of it anyway*), the clean brass goes into a zip-lock bag. * I do this out in the driveway, so whatever doesn't end up in the box, no worries. |

I use a plastic kitchen collinder that i have drilled holes in. I just empty the contents of the tumbler into the collinder and shake it over a bucket and it seperates the vast majority of the media from the brass. Then simply pour the media back into the tumbler.

Years ago I purchased a tumbler with a bucket and a separator from MidwayUSA, the tumbler lasted 10-12 years and finally died, I still have the bucket and separator, I still use them every time I clean brass! William

That green carpet was in the mobile home I was living in at the time, which was...6 or 7 years ago. Loooong gone. Carpet is now tan. No issues with dust, I don't dump it over all at once. Wife has no issues with me reloading - the room the gear is in is pretty much all mine, coomputer, reloaidng bench, junk, bookshelves, etc. Now I CAST in the garage, I don't tempt fate like that.

I bought a 2 X 2 foot pan
and after my stroke it still looks like a rat on drugs tore through it. Even my big Dillon tumbler I have trouble with.:barf: Damn stroke everything that was easy, is now hard for me to do. I can sympathize, my wife says I wasn't much better before! Media just makes a mess for me. I should have been a organic chemist they make messes, That will be my excuse. Edward5759 |

Yep, like all the above suggestions, you jes need something to hold the amount of media-brass you are tumbling, with holes in it smaller than the brass and larger than the media, and something to catch the media as you shake it out of your "separator"...

I bought a pan at Cabelas, cost about $10 and works just fine. Looks like one of those pans you would use for panning gold, but has slots in the bottom.

I bought the Lyman Auto-Flo conversion bowl and use 20/40 fine media. All I do is "pull the plug" and a few minutes later I have a bowl of tumbled brass without the media. Couldn't be any easier.

I use a collander made with a green enameled wire. The spacing is large enough to allow the media to pass but stop my smallest cases, which is .380 right now. I was never concerned about the dust until reading some posts this year, now I try to minimize the dust as much as possible.

Color of the Year: Emerald green is Pantone's top color of 2013
The company, which creates and matches colors for the fashion, home and beauty industries, among others, picks its top hue based on both how it's already being used and a prediction of sustained popularity.
Green's time had come, says Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of Pantone's research arm known as the Pantone Color Institute.
"The entire green family has been so strong, upcoming through the `90s as we're paying attention to nature, so the family isn't new, but what we needed to look at and revisit was the psychological background: Emerald is such a balanced color, and balance is something to pick up on and listen to," she explains.
Eiseman adds, "It's a color of growth, renewal, healing, unity and regeneration — words we're all so in need of at this point of history."
On the runways, emerald green was spotted for 2013 at Michael Kors, Nanette Lepore and Vivienne Tam. Tracy Reese took her bow wearing green.
In the home category, green is almost like a neutral, complementing almost everything else, Eiseman says: Pair it with tan, black, blue or even yellow. She has seen it used for an espresso maker, kitchen stool and a mixer.
Sephora is "very happy with the recognition of this color," says Margarita Arriagada, the company's senior vice president of merchandising. She envisions it as an instant hit as an eye shadow, liner, mascara and nail polish. "It's a passionate color, and it gives our client a lot of wearability."
The orange shade called Tangerine Tango that Pantone made its top color for 2012 worked for makeup, even though one might not think it would, Arriagada says. "I can tell you, with conviction, that what happened with Tangerine Tango was transformative. It was like our customer had permission to venture out there with something new and experienced color in a new way."
A reddish-pink shade called Honeysuckle and turquoise blue are other recent Pantone picks.
Colors rise and fall in popularity just like other style-centric trends, says Eiseman, but she thinks green has staying power like few others. It has taken on meaning as a noun and a verb as well as an adjective.
"It might have been a trend, but it has become a social cause so it's just part of our world. ... Kermit said it's not easy being green, but it became easier once it became a good thing to be green."

Chiefs plan to use Dee Ford some on special teams
The Chiefs led the NFL in average starting field position (the 33.4 yard-line) as well as opponents' starting average field position (23.2-yard line).
So special teams coordinator Dave Toub is looking for some young players to fill the roles on coverage and return units, including first-round pick Dee Ford.
"I want to see Dee Ford," Toub said. "I know he is going to be a pass rusher for us, but he's also going to play some special teams. I'm excited about seeing him. (Wide receiver) Albert Wilson, I want to see him in some coverage, we know he can be a returner, we believe he can. We want to see him cover some kicks.
"(Safety) Daniel Sorensen is certainly on that list, all the rookies, we can't wait to see those guys."

A Waterlily for Monet
Category: Nature
Photo and caption by Rachel Boyer
This past June, I went to the New York Botanical Garden to see the recreation of Monet's Garden. It was a perfect day to tour the garden, and the outdoor waterlily exhibit was like something out of a dream. This photo truly captures the beauty of the waterlily as well as the reflection of the Georgian-style greenhouse in the pool the flower stemmed from.

Alleged Galaxy S5 cases pop up, fingerprint scanner cutout notably absent
Case makers are starting to prep for the surprise Galaxy S5 unveiling invitation that Samsung sent out on Monday, notifying us that February 24th is the day we are likely to see the flagship announced.
UK's Mobile Fun has listed two case lines - Trident's Aegis and Kraken - and claims they will be fitting the upcoming Galaxy S5. Those case prereleases are usually based on an intricate combination of rumors and guesswork, but often on schematics that part suppliers leak to case makers, and even official dimensions forwarded by the phone manufacturer before the actual unveiling.
In any case, pun not intended, take a gander at the case collection that Mobile Fun claims is destined to wrap the Galaxy S5 snugly. If we can gauge anything from these, it's that the camera unit might have its typical place in the upper middle of the phone's back, while the volume rocker is set on the right, and the power/lock key is on the usual left.
The case maker also notes that its products have "cutouts for the flash, camera, loud speaker, microphone and noise-cancelling microphone." Cutout for a fingerprint reader is mentioned nowhere, though, so if the cases are indeed designed after the S5, such a scanner either won't be present in the phone, or it might be embedded in the touchscreen itself indeed.

When I create a new list it tells me I have to type them in. No way !! On my old mac, with Netscape, I just dragged each address over into the new mailing list. Do I really have to type each of them each in ? Is Bill Gates really that mean ?

At this point we should just leap to the reunion. I know we haven't gotten to Taylor's "my daughter is there?" drama yet, but there don't seem to be any revelations to be made in the Brandi/Adrienne saga- at least not until they're directly questioned at the reunion. I wonder if all of the HW will sit for the full show, or if they'll just bring out the "friends" Faye and Marissa. And Yolanda, who so far has been a core HW with less screentime than those two. I hope they don't bring out the husbands. I don't really care what any of them have to say, frankly, except maybe Paul (because of the abuse allegations thrown his way). |

I'm sure it'll be three parts, but it really doesnt need to be. The entire season has been one story, so it should be one conversation at the reunion. Hopefully it features the appearance of another manilla envelope. My favourite reunion guest star! Edited by Drew, Feb 15 2013, 05:38 AM.

I missed ATL this week. Honestly, I'm just ready for the season to be over. I want the reunion! Onto BH, I wish Adrienne would've just admitted to the ceased-and-desist letter from the get go. What was the point of lying? Let everyone know that Brandi is just a drama queen, calling it a lawsuit. At least Adrienne wouldn't have to look like a liar, and she's still justified in sending the letter because she wants Brandi to stop discussing her personal life. It's none of her business. As for Lisa asking Kyle to kick Adrienne and Paul out, I agree that it's the same situation. However, it's not the same situation for Kyle. Last year, Kyle was put in a position between two friends (Taylor and Camille). Kyle doesn't give a damn about Brandi, and that's why she didn't find it difficult to allow Adrienne and Paul to stay. I really wish Kyle would stop trying to act like she wants to get along with Brandi. Just because she's Lisa's current pet project doesn't mean Kyle has to like her too. Kyle just looks fake. I'm glad Brandi and Adrienne seemed to have put this to rest. As best as they can. At least for the remainder of the season. I'm sure it's going to be a main topic at the reunion. And I'm fine with that. I'm just tired of episodes being devoted to this dumbass fight. I don't think Kim falls off the wagon. She's been seen since filming wrapped, and it's obvious she's still sober. Something about her isn't right in the previews for next week though, so I'm looking forward to seeing what that's about. Yolanda continues to be a non-entity. Why wasn't sure just cast as a Friend of the Housewives? |

ALBANY — New York State Police officials say troopers will be the first law enforcement officers in the nation to receive special training in responding to crashes involving electric vehicles.
With electric and hybrid electric vehicles becoming more popular, emergency responders and police officers face unique hazards from high-voltage electric equipment when the vehicles are involved in accidents.
Troopers are joined representatives of the National Fire Protection Association at the State Police Academy in Albany to demonstrate the safety concerns faced by emergency workers responding to crashes involving electric vehicles.

Can I use airport as a wireless access point with my existing router?
I have a D-Link DIR-655 router which has worked great for me for years. Can I use the airport as a switch/wireless access point with my router?
- Asked by Nathan P from Grand Rapids
QA AirPort Extreme Base Station
Product No Longer Available
1 Answer from the Community
Yes. We have the same D-Link router connected to our Cable Modem at home. I recently purchased the AirPort Extreme Base Station and connected it to the DIR-655 via ethernet cable and it was assigned an IP address without issue.
NOTE: The light on the AirPort Extreme Base Station will flash amber until you run the AirPort Utility. Also, you will not be able to view any windows computers which are connected through the wired or wireless connections of the DIR-655 which could make network sharing a problem.- Answered by Andrew T from Jordan

The former East Deck Motel at Ditch Plain in Montauk is back on the market, after plans to build a private beach club on the five-acre property there were met with widespread protest.
We may pretend we don't care, but, c'mon, don't you want to know which Southampton house the Kardashian sisters rented this summer?
Khloe, Kourtney, and presumably Kim, fresh from her betrothal to Kanye West, rented a storefront off Job's Lane in Southampton and will be filming their reality TV series "Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons," this summer, based on their adventures. Now, since they will need somewhere to sleep after all their cavorting around town, they have leased digs in North Sea.
Barn and Vine, a 50-acre development under construction in Bridgehampton abutting the Channing Daughters vineyard, was featured on Bravo's "Million Dollar Listing New York" last night.
The listing of 37 houses, each on half-acre-plus lots, is shared by four agents: Terry Thompson and Aaron Curti locally, and Fredrik Eklund and John Gomes in New York, all of Douglas Elliman Real Estate. Mr. Eklund is one of the principals featured on the TV show.
The other day a real estate team from Douglas Elliman held an unusual open house. The only invitees were members of the East Hampton Town Board, Nature Conservancy, Peconic Land Trust, local environmentalists, and philanthropists. The property is in an idyllic ecotone between salt marsh and forest off Northwest Creek in East Hampton. And Chris Chapin, his partner Ray Lord III, and the owner want it saved.
Bargain hunters take note. Fort Pond Boulevard in Springs might not be noted it for mega-mansions, but it still caused notice when a .32-acre property there was recorded in the transfers this week at having sold for a mere $210,000.
"This is the least expensive sale that I have seen in years," said Chris Chapin, an agent at Douglas Elliman, who could not find the listing in any of the systems used by his company. "This likely was a private sale that never hit the open market."
Ironically, the seller was an L.L.C. named Hampton Dream Properties.
Steven Spielberg, who lives on nine acres overlooking Georgica and Lily Ponds and straddling Apaquogue and West End Roads in East Hampton Village, has placed on the market a nearby 3.3-acre property he purchased six years ago for $20 million in hopes of expanding his domain. He tore down the house on the newly listed property at 94 Apaquogue Road, which he bought from a member of the Cartier jewelry family, but never built there.
The rumors that have abounded suggesting that two of the Kardashian sisters will be opening a South Fork shop have been corroborated. Irma Herzog, the owner of the Driver's Seat in Southampton, and retail spaces directly to the west of the restaurant, has confirmed that she has leased the storefront at 64 Jobs Lane to the Tinsel Town siblings.
In a Dickensian twist, while one man just purchased the most expensive residential real estate in this country on record, his next-door neighbor's house is about to be foreclosed upon.
An 8,000-square-foot Sagaponack house designed by Charles Gwathmey, a modernist architect who left a legacy of chic boxes throughout the South Fork, was sold in February for $20 million, as recorded in recent deed transfers. The house wasn't officially on the market, as the owners were waiting to finish a house they are building nearby, according to the selling agent, Corcoran's Susan Breitenbach.
Barry Rosenstein, a hedge fund manager, is reportedly buying a three-parcel ocean view property on Further Lane in East Hampton Village for $147 million, according to the New York Post.
Totaling 16 acres, according to Suffolk County records, the three lots at 60, 62, and 64 Further Lane were at one time owned by Christopher H. Browne of Tweedy, Browne Company, who died in 2009.
When Linda Haugevik, an agent at Sotheby's International Realty, put North Haven's six-acre Strongheart estate on the market in July for $65 million, there were those who accused her of being on "hallucinogens," she said.
In other words, even though the property belonged to the actor Richard Gere and his wife, Carey Lowell (who have since filed for divorce, according to the tabloids), it was perceived by some as overpriced. Nine months later, the price has been reduced to $56 million.
When it comes to commercial real estate on the South Fork, rumors abound. Come winter, with many shops closed, tongues wag about which are coming and which are going. Don't necessarily listen to the scuttlebutt.
Last week, when Stacy Ludlow was driving down Halsey Lane in Bridgehampton en route home to Mecox Bay Dairy where she and her family make cheese, she noticed that a lovely old farmhouse dating from circa 1720 was being torn apart.
The Arc House, a residence on Green Hollow Road in East Hampton that is a kind of glamorized Quonset hut will be featured Sunday on the Travel Channel. Designed by Maziar Behrooz, an East Hampton architect who just opened an office in Manhattan's Flatiron district, the nearly 5,200-square-foot structure is made of corrugated steel and held up by 14 "ribs."
When Paul Rice, an architect who has designed houses throughout the South Fork with his partner, Ward Welch, for 25 years, purchased a house at 78 Meeting House Lane in Amagansett in 2008, he set to work gutting it and adding 1,200 square feet. The timing couldn't have been worse.
Plans were for a 4,500-square-foot, updated gambrel-roofed traditional but construction, which only extended to the exterior of the house, was stopped as the market dove south. The interior is framed, but unfinished.
A nearly six-acre property with a Tudor-style 12,000-square-foot house built in 2005 for Richard Demato, who is a Sag Harbor gallery owner, and his wife, Harriet Sawyer, an artist, closed Tuesday for just over $31.7 million. Though the deal does not set a record for the most spent on a North Haven property — that honor goes to Tyndall Point, a 55-acre sub-dividable parcel with a main house built in the 1950s that sold for $36 million in 2011 – it does set a record in the hamlet for a single-family residence.
While historic houses are being torn asunder all over the South Fork, Southampton Town has come to the rescue of at least two.
The owners of the Benjamin Foster Homestead in Water Mill, a half-Cape from the Federal period, and the Foster-Downs House in East Quogue, a Greek Revival residence with later Italianate style embellishments, will each receive $10,000, to help pay for the cost of materials and labor for preservation efforts. Both properties attained town landmark status last year.
Less than a year after the purchase of a Further Lane property in March for a staggering $62.5 million by Steven A. Cohen, a hedge fund billionaire, The New York Observer reported last week that the embattled billionaire is trying to "dump" the 6.5-acre property.
Bill O'Reilly, the Fox News commentator known for bulldozing liberals, has bulldozed a 1940s cottage that had been perched high on a Montauk bluff overlooking the ocean, on property he purchased last year for $7.65 million.
Last summer when The Star interviewed the selling agent, Theresa Eurell of Town and Country, she said that if the cottage were demolished its buildable footprint would go with it, allowing nothing to be built on that idyllic location again. Local residents were hoping he'd keep the cottage as a romantic aerie.
If you build a house for immortality it might be a bit inconvenient, even embarrassing, to eventually die. But Madeline Arakawa Gins, an architect, who with her husband, who was known simply as Arakawa, also an architect, built a house in East Hampton to pre-empt death for its inhabitants, left the mortal plane last week at age 72, according to an obituary in The New York Times. Mr. Arakawa predeceased her by four years.
For more than a decade it stood vacant near the East Hampton Village train station, a Floridian-style house – stucco, flat roof, the sort of place that begs for a plastic flamingo on the lawn.
Recently, the next-door neighbors at 11 Sherrill Road, Jeff Williams and Tim Walsh, bought the property, and are building a new house there. The couple plans to return the style of the property to a time before that of its former Art Deco incarnation. Jack Thullen Construction is their contractor.
When a rental client called Roxane Robinson, an agent at Brown Harris Stevens, and told her about an $800-a-month house she'd seen on Zillow available for rent year round in East Hampton Village, Ms. Robinson knew something was fishy.
Her first clue: Her customer had at first felt as if he'd won the lottery. Alas, the reality is "We don't have any affordable housing out here," she said.
What could be the best rental deal in the Hamptons just came on the market for the summer season. One of the coveted oceanfront Sea Spray Cottages, vestiges from the glory days of the Sea Spray Inn, which dated from 1840 and burned down in 1978, can be had by the highest bidder.
East Hampton Village, which owns the 13 cottages near Main Beach, is soliciting bids for the summer season through 2 p.m. on Jan. 27 for the one-bedroom cottage number 14 (named thus most likely for reasons of superstition).
With her term on the East Hampton Town Board soon to be behind her, Theresa Quigley has moved up in the world, well, at least to a "higher" place.
It was announced today that the real estate attorney has been named executive managing director and general counsel to Saunders and Associates, a real estate firm based in Bridgehampton whose tag line reads: "A higher form of realty."
Whether the seller of a Southampton house gets paid in Bitcoin as he's asking, or in cash, which he'll take — he's certainly stirred up a lot of attention for his listing on Big Fresh Pond.

Agree & that's the point.
If we recognise that apps are the product-premium that sells more iPhones, then Google has flipped the deal and Nexus is the product-premium that sells more Google.
Microsoft has officially kicked the bucket in regards to the mobile phone market. Now it's being dominated by google, apple, blackberry and palm. Thats what you get for dragging your feet and putting out such crappy stuff. I like android and the new offerings.
I am a 51 year-old business person, have an Open Source (OSS) Ubuntu laptop with OSS Evolution mail, address book and calendaring functionality, a desktop running OSS Thunderbird email client and OSS Sunbird calendar on Windows 7, all thoroughly integrated and synced with my personal Gmail and business POP accounts and my HTC Magic, running OSS Android.
The Magic gives me access to Google Maps, with which my synced calendars and address books link so I can get directions to my next meeting when I'm on the move, dialling directly if I need to speak to those attending. Moreover, I can use OSS Wikitude (now available on iPhone, but not Blackberry) to locate services (hotels, banks, stores, etc.) when in a city I am not familiar with.
Document management could be better, but I have access to GDocs and third party apps are constantly improving. This may be a slightly weak link, specially comparing on this particular with RIA's Blackberry. But I don't really ever edit docs anyway. Besides, Blackberry's other functionalities are nowhere near Android's, and doc management will likely improve. Plus no "Blackberry tax"! The iPhone is a bit of a "slab", slightly larger than the Magic and does not fit in my jeans' or jackets' lighter pockets.
Altogether, I am extremely happy with my Magic, which I find a very competitive proposition before both the iPhone and the Blackberry. I imagine the Nexus is just one step further forward.
Given the satisfaction with Android and Google's services, permitting flexible customisation, third party widgets, etc. with an open nature the iPhone's app store does not bear comparison with, we are likely to continue with Androids (whether Google Phones or other manufacturers') and may well contract Google's Enterprise services.
Guessed where G's business strategy may be heading, besides advertising?
One not-so-minor issue: The iPhone's main flaw is that it doesn't work on Verizon's CDMA network. Neither does the Nexus.
If you want to beat the iPhone, the surest strategy is to put it on a better network.
Nexus One is not an iPhone rival, it was HTC G1.
Google is doing this, to make sure people use www.google.com as their search site. Even though they have a lot of other phones out there with Android, there is no guarantee that T-Mobile or Sprint or Verizon will not change the default search engine. This phone is provider independent.
P.s. can't wait to see what Nokia comes out with.
Google is embracing good old bricks and mortar business. Is Nokia going to go after Google also since their Nexus One is an exact clone from the iPhone?
@Joshua Farlande: I would tend to think like you, but then, I am 53 years old...! Do you have any kids? Did you ever observe what they like? Yes, exactly...
I don't know what "market share" they are referring. Perhaps converts from apple & other "recreational" phones. I know that most corporations and small business owners choose the BlackBerry because of the full keyboard and other business friendly functions. RIM makes a product geared to people who work off their phone. Now the caveat is that I don't listen to music or really play games on my phone. Then again, I'm 43. I have a IPOD and a laptop. I guess we're from the multi-devise generation. Frankly, I don't see the appeal of reading off the damn thing. It makes me go blind.

The move is considered significant because Google has released a product that is directly competing with its own clients/partners like Motorola, Samsung, HTC, etc.
@oikos-nomos, @Tochi: Yes, I'd like to say Nokia phones have a very good vibration function and very good batteries.
Most of the time I only carry my phone with me, and I have a backup battery in case the one in use drained out. If both fail, I will accidentally have to charge the two batteries at the same time...
i don't get why everyone is calling this the "google phone". The hardware is built by a third party, HTC, and the OS is made by google. How is that any different from any other Android phone? This is exactly like the G1 or the Droid, albeit with beefier hardware. What makes this a significant move by google?
"it may not be long before it has a Google Tablet to contend with too"
-missed the chromium OS press release did we?
"@Joshua Farlande: How often do you forget to pick up or charge one of the three devices that you carry around with you? Don't they take up a lot of space? Do you ever miss a call because your MP3 player drowns out your 'phone? Your fellow commuters must love you."
Well most Nokia phones have a vibration function so I dont believe he'll miss any calls - infact his phone's battery will outlast any of these 'smart' phones.
He is part of a majority who cannot be bothered by the hype over expensive gadgets that promise much but deliver little and even then cant even hold a charge for a decent amount of time.
"Google unveils a rival to the iPhone"
What? Where? When? On Tuesday, they released a fairly standard phone with nothing remotely exciting about it. They have the potential to build something genuinely different if they can get decent always-on type data agreements with the service providers but currently, it's just another smartphone.
@Joshua Farlande: How often do you forget to pick up or charge one of the three devices that you carry around with you? Don't they take up a lot of space? Do you ever miss a call because your MP3 player drowns out your 'phone? Your fellow commuters must love you.
er... not at all, silly?
If Google was to try to launch an iPhone killer, it would be something ground-breaking, or at least it would be marketed as if it were. Google is not competing against the iPhone, it is competing against the iPhone's OS, and for that it needs to conquer the mobile phone manufacturers' market. So they're definitely not going to become a major portable device provider themselves.
Making a phone themselves is more like a strategic move to add pressure on mobile phone manufacturers and possibly a way to showcase their OS in a controlled environment.
The rival to the iPhone's OS was unveiled a while ago, and it's called "Android".
With Android, many phones, many carriers, many flavors of the OS, much choice for the consumer. As smartphone ownership increases, more people chose Android over others.
If they live up to their legacy (albeit not a long list here), their OS would definitely be something worth looking forward to...
Personally I don't like smart phones or e-readers. I've got a handheld GPS receiver for trekking, a portable MP3 player to kill some time while commuting, and a Nokia 1650 to easily get bothered. For reading, I prefer paper books. If I want to go online, I'd rather use a desktop computer.
There are interesting times ahead. Apple has the advantage of existing user base and a wide selection of applications. On the other hand, Google has the Android, open source operating system, that is sure to get the attention of developers.
At the moment we have 2 players. Apple and now Google. It is time to see if Microsoft can rejoin the game.

Significance and Use
This method is intended to help manufacturers determine the relative pack-set tendency of their cement(s). The test establishes a pack-set index which, when properly correlated with field performance, is useful in predicting or preventing field unloading difficulties.
The test is an aid to routine control during cement production and is not suitable for specification purposes.
In general, field performance of cement flowability is satisfactory when the pack-set index as determined on freshly ground cement averages 0 to 15 and is unsatisfactory when the index exceeds 25. Any prediction of field performance of cement flowability measuring 16 to 25 is tenable. These are general ranges and the field performance of individual cements may not necessarily fall within these ranges. Additional conditions, after the cement has left the control of the manufacturing facility, can affect the apparent pack set index as well.
Any attempt to apply the critical range of pack-set index numbers based on freshly ground cement to job cement without special treatment of the sample would be problematic. The test is a "GO-NO GO" type of test and should not be used for specification purposes.
The pack-set index of field cement can be evaluated in terms of the pack-set index ranges of that cement as determined when freshly-ground. This comparison can aid the manufacturer in producing cement that offers the best field performance for pack-set properties.
Silo storage of cement may result in a greater amount of consolidation than this method is designed to induce, and the resulting forces required to overcome that consolidation are not measured by this test method.
Pack set is not to be confused with "warehouse set" which results from surface hydration of the cement from adsorbed moisture.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the pack-set index, which provides an indication of the mechanical force needed to overcome the consolidation of portland cement.
1.2 The pack-set index number provides a numerical value useful for manufacturers who desire to measure and control the effect that vibration-induced consolidation has upon the manufactured cement.
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. Values stated in SI units shall be obtained by measurement in SI units or by appropriate conversion, using the rules of Conversion and rounding given in Standard IEEE/ASTM SI 10, of measurements made in other units.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. (WARNING—Fresh hydraulic-cementitious mixtures are caustic and may cause chemical burns to skin and tissue upon prolonged exposure.)

Thought leaders, legislators, and a range of educational organizations look to NWEA for current thinking on educational issues. While our public opinion research attracts a great deal of attention from U.S. policymakers, we create them for a wider audience. If you're concerned with the current state of education as well as where our nation can go from here, we invite you to jump into the conversation.
Our Goal
Our National Agenda
At NWEA, we're driven to understand what it means to measure learning for all students—and we've emerged as a leader in this area of education research. Our advocacy resonates because it's based on the concerns educators, parents, and students across the country share with us.

This is a video game inspired piece from a project a few years ago where I was attempting to write an entire album of such video game inspired music. Originally it was going to be something like the soundtrack to a japanese RPG that was never made! It was a bit of an over-ambitious project and I have a lot of material from it that never saw the light of day.
That said, this work is pretty derivative... which I very freely admit. There's a few notes of Mitusda in there, and the main chord structure closely resembles Kondo's credits roll on Super Mario Bros. 2.
The problem with this album was always sounds, pure synth didn't sound right, recorded instruments didn't sound right, and most sampled sound didn't sound right. This was one of the few tracks in the entire project where I ended up happy with the sound design.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Would work great for a cutscene in a video game, has a nice rhythm to it
Every so often I feel I just have to write something video-gamey.. I spent too much time playing them to not be influenced by them! thanks for the review :)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Very nice!
This was so happy go lucky it made me feel good inside just listening to it,i love how light and delicate it was and the quality was fantastic,i am very impressed with you and would love to hear more. =D
Thank you for the review :) it is highly appreciated!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I like this
This could be in a jappanese Rpg if i exist
Thanks! if you think so, then I succeeded in what I set out to do. :)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Very relaxing :)!
Yeah, the sound is low, and the synths sound a little ordinary. BUT THIS IS JUST SO FREAKING AWESOME!
Great job! I wish you would post more ;) This seriously is really good song writing!
Thanks for the review! I'll try to keep up the pace!

The paper begins by looking at the current interpretation of the verses, and argues that it is not sufficient to explain the narrative configuration at various points, before going on to suggest an alternative interpretation, in which the misinterpretation of the oracle by the Apostles leads to the fulfillment of the Divine will. This interpretation finds strong support in literature contemporary to Acts. |

Musical star actor Yoon Hee-seok is getting married in November.
He decided to get married with 5 years younger bride-to-be just after 4 months of dating.
He told OSEN, "We met through a friend and I decided just after a few dates that she was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I fell for her warm and caring heart. She was also very supportive of me when I had an empty space in between work and was mentally stressed".
The fact that they are both devout Christians also helped a great deal. The bride-to-be also had experience in the musical world, full of talent and looks.

Itsy Mitsy has had quite enough of bedtime. So tonight she's running away to the perfect place, where there are no more bedtimes ever (not even one). But running away isn't as easy as it seems. There's a lot to pack: Mitsy's friendliest dinosaur, Mister Roar; a snack for Mister Roar; Mitsy's dog, Pupcake (to keep the bedtime beasties away from said snack).…The list goes on and on. But with a helpful dad who makes sure Mitsy doesn't leave anything behind—especially not him—Mitsy might want to run away tomorrow night, too!

The Snowmobile as Envisioned in 1924
Armstead Snow Motors from Seeking Michigan on Vimeo.
WHEN I FIRST WATCHED THIS VIDEO, from an old 16mm film made in 1924, I was stunned. For the last 100 years, American ingenuity and know-how has been a leader in the industrial world. From backyard tinkerers to garage inventors to larger productions—there's nothing like the freedom of the entrepreneurial spirit to spur a new idea. My father once told me the story of the trouble American tanks had during WWII in the hedgerows of France. The tanks could not negotiate the thick, thousand year old hedges until a ordinary soldier—a farm-boy from back home—suggested welding to the front of the tank steel prongs—which was able to virtually rip their way through the underbrush. Problem solved… a simple solution to a serious situation.
What an ingenious idea to a crippling problem before the small, fast and streamlined snowmobiles of today. The concept is a little bit like Buck Rogers, a futuristic design below a Ford tractor.
And then I wondered why the concept never went any further? Perhaps the idea lacked backers. Perhaps there were design problems this "PR film" did not display, or perhaps the concept vehicle sat stagnant until the 1929 stock market crash doomed its production.
To my knowledge, the U.S. military did not have any kind of snowmobile vehicles during the fierce winters in Belgium and Germany in WWII in the early 1940s. I do recall seeing pictures of trucks and jeeps being stuck in and dug out of snowdrifts, troops walking alongside. While it's not such a peaceful thought, think of this baby multiplied by 200 with a couple of machine guns mounted on the front—leading a frontal assault during the Battle of the Bulge. Wild! Or, think of it being used to move supplies or injured troops to and from the front lines. It seems to me that the military would have funded this concept in a heartbeat.
So, where did this (seemingly) great industrial design go? I don't know.
This old silent film is about 10 minutes long, but I guarantee you'll watch every bit of it—in awe.

I loved this video, I am surprised too, that nothing was done with this machine! Maybe there was a patenting problem. That could certainly keep something from being developed further.

Today in London, we've just had the worst snow in 18 years. The buses have all been cancelled, the airports are at a standstill. It's chaos.
This post makes me want to throw on my union suit and fur-lined overalls and jump on a 1924 snowmobile. Definitely the coolest way to get around, in so many senses. - February 2, 2009 at 4:28 AM

I still haven't found what I'm looking for...
I'm 39 (40 in June), Ex-Military, Registered Nurse (Director Of Nursing). I'm financially stable (House, car, etc...), honest, caring, down to earth (I'm comfortable in a suit, scrubs, jeans/ball cap), love to laugh, and adventurous. I enjoy running and working out with my trainer. I believe in the importance of family and good friends. I also enjoy going to church and my relationship with God is very important to me. My political views are somewhat conservative and only become heated when me & my Daddy talk politics :-). I've not had much luck with dating or relationships. I'm not interested in playing games with people. My ideal partner will have somewhat likeminded qualities but not exactly the same (that would be boring) but they have to be down to earth, kind, driven, stable, and genuine. I'm very interested in an honest, monogamous, loving relationship with a guy that feels the same and wants only me. I'm very happy with the man I am and I do not hide who I am. My ideal partner would feel the same and be ok with hand holding and simple acts of caring even in public. The perfect day to me would be a cold, rainy Sunday indoors playing with my partner and our kid :-)
Bowling, Running, Tennis / Racquet sports, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 5 or more times per week.

It seems unlikely that Lois would never have noticed the service charge on the receipt before.
Malcolm: My mom is horrible.
Stevie: (unimpressed) My mom phoned me drunk... on my birthday... wanting money.
Malcolm: You're worried about your family? That's not going to bother me.
Angela: Oh, yeah? My family is unbelievably intrusive, overbearing, controlling and humiliating.
Malcolm: You're talking to the right guy.
Otto: I know I have a problem hiring too many people. But I'm getting help. I'm seeing three psychiatrists about it.
Malcolm: Angela Pozefsky. She's really cute. I think I might actually have a chance with her. For some reason, no one ever asks her out. Maybe she's so promiscuous, she intimidates all the other guys. Yeah, I'm going with that.
Piama: If Jordan hadn't wandered in on you in the men's room yesterday, you'd still be stuck in there.
Francis: I would've figured it out!
Cold Open: Reese and Dewey hit a baseball through the window, so in order to avoid trouble, they replace it with a rock. Attached to the rock is a note saying that they hate the family's guts. Hal and Lois think a neighbor threw it.
When Clyde on your side, the reporter Lois sent to Luigi's, says that; "This has no reflection on the Italian people, most of whom are decent, hard-working people." This is almost a direct quote from the movie, The Godfather II, in the scene where Michael Corleone is at the congressional hearing dealing with the mafia.

A recently finished three-year study from Japan has discovered a new fault line running beneath Mount Fuji, which towers 3,776-meter (12,385 feet) above sea level. Analysis done on the fault line by the University of Tokyo shows the potential for a magnitude 7.0 quake, which could trigger a magnitude-7 earthquake, changing the shape of the mountain and devastating nearby communities.
According to director for earthquake investigation at the science ministry, Yasuhiro Yoshida, the mountain could collapse with mudslides flowing to Gotemba, a city near the base of the mountain. Further analysis will be done to determine the full effects of an earthquake on the mountain, such as a possible eruption or devastating landslides. Little is known about the seismic structure under Mount Fuji because faults were buried by mudflows triggered by a huge landslide that occurred about 2,600 to 2,900 years ago, as well as by layers of volcanic ash, but that more studies are required to determine how the fault could affect potential volcanic activity.
Mount Fuji last erupted in 1707, less than two months following a 8.6 magnitude earthquake centered in the region. An earthquake in 1707 caused Mount Fuji to erupt and killed an estimated 20,000 people. The nation of Japan remains on heightened alert for natural disasters following the deadly earthquake and tsunami in early 2011. (JapanToday)
Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan located on Honshu Island at 3,776.24 m (12,389 ft). An active stratovolcano that last erupted in 1707–08, Mount Fuji lies about 100 kilometres (62 mi) south-west of Tokyo, and can be seen from there on a clear day. Mount Fuji's exceptionally symmetrical cone, which is snow-capped several months a year, is a well-known symbol of Japan and it is frequently depicted in art and photographs, as well as visited by sightseers and climbers. It is one of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains" along with Mount Tate and Mount Haku.
Three small cities surround it: Gotemba to the south, Fujiyoshida to the north, and Fujinomiya to the southwest. It is also surrounded by five lakes: Lake Kawaguchi, Lake Yamanaka, Lake Sai, Lake Motosu and Lake Shoji. They, and nearby Lake Ashi, provide excellent views of the mountain. The temperature is very low at the high altitude, and the cone is covered by snow for several months of the year. The lowest recorded temperature is −38.0 °C, and the highest temperature was 17.8 °C recorded in June 2008.
Geology of Mt. Fuji
Mount Fuji is located at the triple junction where the Amurian Plate, the Okhotsk Plate, and the Philippine Sea Plate meet. Those plates form the western part of Japan, the eastern part of Japan, and the Izu Peninsula respectively.Scientists have identified four distinct phases of volcanic activity in the formation of Mount Fuji. The first phase, called Sen-komitake, is composed of an andesite core recently discovered deep within the mountain. Sen-komitake was followed by the "Komitake Fuji," a basalt layer believed to be formed several hundred thousand years ago. Approximately 100,000 years ago, "Old Fuji" was formed over the top of Komitake Fuji. The modern, "New Fuji" is believed to have formed over the top of Old Fuji around 10,000 years ago.
The volcano is currently classified as active with a low risk of eruption. The last recorded eruption was the Hōei eruption which started on December 16, 1707 and ended about January 1, 1708 during the Edo period. The eruption formed a new crater and a second peak halfway down its side. Fuji spewed cinders and ash which fell like rain in Izu, Kai, Sagami, and Musashi. Since then, there have been no signs of an eruption. In the evening of March 15, 2011, there was a magnitude 6.2 earthquake at shallow depth a few kilometres from Mount Fuji on its southern side. But according to the Japanese Meteorological Service there was no sign of any eruption.

Strange Space Weather over Africa
Something strange is happening in the atmosphere above Africa and researchers have converged on Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to discuss the phenomenon. The Africa Space Weather Workshop kicked off Nov. 12th with nearly 100 scientists and students in attendance.
The strange phenomenon that brings all these people together is the ion plume"""a newly discovered form of space weather," says University of Colorado atmospheric scientist and Workshop co-organizer Tim Fuller-Rowell.
Researchers liken the plumes to smoke billowing out of a factory smokestack""except instead of ordinary ash and dust, ion plumes are made of electrified gas floating so high above ground they come in contact with space itself. "The plumes appear during geomagnetic storms and they can interfere with satellite transmissions, airline navigation and radio communications," says Fuller-Rowell. Indeed, it is their effect on GPS signals that led to the discovery of plumes over North America just a few years ago.
Two days before this map was made, an explosion on the sun had hurled a cloud of magnetized gas""a CME""toward Earth. The plume formed when the CME hit, triggering a strong geomagnetic storm. The plume consists of ionized air at high altitude moving from Florida to Canada at a speed of 1 km/s (2200 mph).
"Okay, now we've seen the 'smoke,' but where is the smokestack?" asks Fuller-Rowell.
The search is leading researchers to Africa.
"Many believe the source of the plumes is near Earth's magnetic equator," explains NASA heliophysicist Lika Guhathakurta who is attending the Workshop. "Africa is a great place to check this possibility because the magnetic equator passes directly over the sub-Sahara."
Just one problem: "There aren't enough sensors in Africa to study the phenomenon," says Fuller-Rowell. The sensor of choice is the dual-frequency GPS receiver. "North America has an abundance of dual frequency GPS receivers""thousands of them in a network we use to monitor North American plumes. But Africa has only a few dozen."
The purpose of the Workshop is to familiarize African space scientists with the plume phenomenon and lay the groundwork for a continent-wide GPS network. "Within a few years we hope to deploy hundreds of receivers," he says.
Ion plumes inhabit a layer of Earth's atmosphere called the "ionosphere." It is a broad region 85 km to 600 km above ground level where ultraviolet radiation from the sun knocks electrons off atoms and molecules, creating a layer of ionized gas or "plasma" surrounding our entire planet. As ham radio operators have known for more than 100 years, the ionosphere can bend, distort, reflect and even absorb radio waves. Plumes amplify these effects.
How important is Africa to the study of this phenomenon? "Consider the list of organizations who have joined forces to sponsor the Africa Space Weather Workshop: NASA, NOAA, the National Science Foundation, the European Office of Aerospace Research and Development (EOARD), the International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), and many others," says Guhathakurta. "It's widely understood that Africa is key to the puzzle."
At the moment only North America has a well-mapped ionosphere. NOAA posts new images every 15 minutes at this website. "Five years from now," says Fuller-Rowell, "we hope to be making realtime maps of the ionosphere over Africa, too."
Africa is plasma incognita""but not for long. Stay tuned!
