Silly question, but am I able to check my own score if I put a security freeze? Say I want my credit to age, and I dont want to keep monitoring it daily for any unauthorized changes... but I want to unfreeze it when it if say in a year i pull it and it's reached a certain score. Does anyone know? Thanks.
Not a silly question at all! I think it is a good one!
Before going into details, exactly what did you do to "freeze" your CR with the CRA?
If you made an "identity theft report," then what that blocks is the ability of the CRA to thereater report information on that account in any credit report that they issue, until the identify theft allegation is resolved. It does not block access to your entire credit report, just to the information that you assert was entered fraudulently.
See FCRA 605A, fraud alert, and FCRA 605B, block of reporting.
I put a security freeze on all three (Exp. Eq. and Transunion). I didn't make a "identity theft report" as that doesn't apply to me. This is what my transunion has as a discription. It doesn't asy anything about being able to check my OWN credit though... I'm assuming I can?
Your TransUnion Credit Report currently has a TransUnion Security Freeze applied. |

- Preventing others from looking at your TransUnion credit report |
- Helping to stop ID thieves from obtaining credit in your name |

A fraud alert is a special message on the credit report that a credit issuer receives when checking a consumer's
credit rating. It tells the credit issuer that there may be fraud involved in the account. It does not limit your access to your
file. A fraud alert can help protect you against Identity Theft, but it can also slow down your ability to get new credit. It
should not stop you from using your existing credit cards or other accounts.
A Security Freeze means that your credit file cannot be accessed by potential creditors, insurance companies, or
employers doing background checks - - unless you give your personal consent or authorization.

If you are concerned about a spouse pulling your CR, you can inform himher that it is a violation of federal statute to do so, as he/she has no permissible purpose.
Even though consumers, for good and obvious reason, wont normally complain if/when a spouse accesses their credit report, it is technically improper.
Personal identifiers are used as a representation that the inquiree is the actual consumer,and thus has permissible pupose to access their own credit report. That right does not extend to any other party, including a spouse.
Once advised in writing of that fact, he/she would be subject to legal action for knowingly violating FCRA 604, regardless of any secrity freezes that may or may not be in place.

Comments about ACE HARDWARE Ace® Faucet Handle Remover / Puller:
This tool might work for most, but if you have a tough faucet handle it will likely break and be completely non-functional. The critical flaw with this product is that near the top is two halves of a piece of steal stamped together around a bolt which you can't see in the picture because it is within the two pieces of stamped steal. The problem with this when you use this tool on a particularly tough handle the two arms holding the handle pull on the stamped steal near the top. The bolt within those two pieces of steal will actually break free from it rendering the tool completely useless. Now if you are good with welding you might be able to easily fix this by welding the bolt to the steel so it can't break free. The good part about this tool is the metal bar that holds the two handles together. A lot of other faucet pullers i've seen don't have this and it is extremely useful. At the same time if you look at other pullers you'll see that they do not use this terrible stamped steel with a bolt inside, they use two pieces of steel stuck together that is then tapped so the screw goes into it directly. If they would just modify that one part of this tool it would be fantastic. As it is now though it breaks easily and once it breaks is completely useless.

"CD of the Month"
"His best and most varied album to date" - Orkus Magazine
"Johan Van Roy demonstrates once again why he is Numero Uno in the Hellectro sector
- rhythm, power, vocals, and thematic concept" - Zillo Magazine
"Nearly every second is explosive and never boring. While I find most albums of this
genre to quickly become tiresome, Suicide Commando hold banality at bay with hit
after hit and a number of slower tracks as well, like a good controlled football
offense. I've never been a big fan of Mr. Van Roy's before, but this album changes
everything. Individual songs are difficult to pick out because they're all so good."
- uselinks.de Webzine
"The accuracy with which Johan Van Roy has married dense soundscapes with the
portrayal of the twisted mind of a serial killer is nothing short of remarkable.
Seldom is electronic music of this style as indicting as it is on the new Suicide
Commando album 'Bind, Torture, Kill'." - re-flexion.de Webzine
"... it almost seems as if Johan Van Roy set himself the task of creating an album
that was club-compatible from the first note to the last. That the result lacks none
of the cold, abrasive brutality for which the project is renowned is a tribute to
the Belgian's songwriting prowess. Suicide Commando's supremacy in the world of hard
electro not only remains unchallenged, but grows more powerful with every release. -
whiskey-soda.de Webzine
"... Suicide Commando has delivered another phenomenal album that fans were
expecting, but weren't ready for. Bind, Torture, Kill has all of what is expected of
Suicide Commando distorted vocals, heavy crunching beats, raspy melodies, and
piercing high end. But, this album is different. It has an intensity not seen before
on previous Suicide Commando albums. This album is more 'in your face', like he
o.d.-ed on coffee, speed, adrenaline, and anger. The result is astounding...if you
thought Suicide Commando was aggressive before, you'd better strap yourself in
because you are in for one hell of a ride." - stormingthebase.com Webzine

Great Britain
The Great Exhibition of 1851 was the culmination of a period of intense activity in the British glasshouses. The excise duty on glass had been removed in 1845, and the British glassmakers were determined not only to excel in their traditional deeply cut crystal but also to rival the Bohemians and the French in coloured, layered, and enamel-painted wares. Probably the most enterprising of the English glassmakers of the period was Benjamin Richardson, of Wordsley near Stourbridge; surviving pieces of this period from the Richardson firm include some admirable painted and engraved pieces as well as crystal wares deeply cut in bold patterns.
Probably in reaction against the banality of pressed-glass imitations of cutting, the most sophisticated work in crystal during the later 1850s through the 1870s was decorated by engraving, often carried out by immigrant Bohemian craftsmen.
The Venetian style of furnace-manipulated glass was also exerting a strong influence. It can be seen, for instance, in the development of the elaborate Victorian centrepieces in the 1860s and 1870s. In some degree the Venetian style was also an influence, alongside that of the Far East, in the fashioning of the fancy wares that were made in Great Britain—as it was in the United States and elsewhere—during the 1880s and 1890s. These wares were often given specific trade names and were mostly made in the English Midlands by firms such as Thomas Webb & Sons of Stourbridge and John Walsh Walsh of Birmingham.
A striking form of mid-Victorian virtuosity was the cameo glass produced by Stourbridge glassworkers. This work, inspired by the Portland vase, required a lengthy process of etching and carving, normally through an opaque-white-glass layer to leave a white carved design in relief on a dark-coloured glass body. The first important pieces, such as the "Pegasus vase," were produced in the 1870s by John Northwood, and in the later part of the century the most distinguished cameo work was carried out by George Woodall.
The influence of the Arts and Crafts Movement was toward the use of plastic forms and furnace decoration, which the English art critic John Ruskin had advocated in The Stones of Venice. In 1859 Philip Webb designed for William Morris some simply formed tableware that was made at the London glassworks of James Powell & Sons. From about 1880 this glassworks was under the control of Harry J. Powell who, working until World War I, developed a simple, dignified style of handmade blown glass, which was subsequently continued in designs by Barnaby Powell, James Hogan, and others.
During the 1930s and after World War II other firms produced work in which a restrained and distinctively modern approach was made to the cutting of faultless crystal glass. Notable designs were produced by Keith Murray for Stevens & Williams shortly before World War II and by David Queensberry (12th marquess of Queensberry) for Webb Corbett in the 1960s. Among the more distinguished glass engraving may be mentioned the diamond-point fantasies of Laurence Whistler and the work of John Hutton, made by a movable wheel held in the hand, such as his great screen in the new Coventry Cathedral. The appearance of new factories in the 1960s, concerned primarily with form and colour, widened the scope of British glass design; and at this time the glass-teaching schools were especially significant as centres for original work by individual artists.

~$100K is the going price for a HC38, a Tayana37 or the Baba/Tashiba versions for a 'quality' boat of the mid 80s vintage. You can go cheaper if you want a 'beater' but these boats are starting to show their age especially if the maintenance was ignored.
The teak is no problem if you use one of the modern long lasting coating systems: Honey Teak, Bristol, etc. Typical service life of Honey Teak is about 10 years with 'some' maintenance coats in between.
The REAL problem on these era boats is that their screwed-down teak decks are now becoming 'wet' and in needing of a $$$$$ replacement, and some have severe chainplate problems ---- all 'age' related.
Here's an example of very maintained Tayana 37:

An interesting sulfur transfer reaction with benzyltriethylammonium tetrathiomolybdate has been used efficiently for the synthesis of macrocyclic disulfides. This methodology has been extended to a high-yield synthesis of ''redox-switched'' crown ethers which have potential application for selective ion transport across liquid membranes.

For a digital bible, Wired has been turning surprisingly analog over the past year. The latest regressions: The publication just fired two top editors from Wired.com and may soon lose the founders of Reddit.com.
Anderson's ad-hemorrhaging Wired print, mind you, has thus far escaped unscathed by the McKinsey cutbacks, we're reliably informed. Despite his good fortune, Anderson is even rumored to be advocating that Wired.com get by on more crowdsourced, written-for-Free blogs like GeekDad. Asked about this, Anderson wrote, "Evan Hansen runs Wired.com, not me." Hansen declined to be interviewed.
...why Condé Nast would starve key websites — the best hope for its future, really — of resources. Granted, it's much easier to remain in a state of denial than to confront real and looming problems.

Living Inside the Great Outdoors

What appears as a cozy contemporary Princeton ranch opens to a stunning backyard view of nature thanks to walls of glass and a prow-like balcony rimmed in steel. This design of a modern multilevel in Princeton lets in light and views.
enlarge | Seating of all sorts in the upper-level living room is framed by quarter-sawn white oak flooring (with hydronic radiant heat), clear-finish tongue-and-groove cedar soffit beams with recessed lights, view-loving windows, and a fireplace where wood, raw stone, a slate hearth, and glass tile meet seamlessly. Light also floods in from the clerestory above. The furnishings are part of the homeowners' collection of historical and classic furniture, art, and African textiles and artifacts.
From the street the house appears to be a cozy single story, albeit with stunning features such as a clerestory skylight. The back, however, reveals a bi-level with walls of glass and a prow-like balcony rimmed in steel.
The horizontal muntins of all interior and exterior windows (pine casings, red outside, natural inside) line up like a Japanese shoji screen house despite tricky changes in floor levels and roofline. Dry-laid native stone on the exterior and interior walls unites the house and counterbalances the delicate glass. Nature surrounds: illuminated xeriscape in front, forest and stream behind.
The owners wanted a home within a garden, not a home with a garden, and to design it they contacted Mark Brus, a Cambridge, Massachusetts, architect with whom they worked before. Wood, glass, stone, steel, sunlight, and views of the trees are the components he used.
Brus and landscape designer-partner Karen Meyers created a Far East-inspired landscape plan in conjunction with landscape contractor Greg Bancroft in West Windsor, and with the homeowners to integrate with stone retaining walls and planters, stepping stones, and paving around the front of the house, which the owners completed and now maintain.
Lasley Brahaney Architecture Construction in Princeton was signed to produce the working drawings and serve as on-site contractor, with the Brahaney team there to execute the plans. The owners chose kitchen appliances, hardware, and more, filling their home with contemporary art, photography, African artifacts and textiles, 1940s- and 50s-style lighting fixtures, and classic American and Scandinavian furnishings from their collection.
enlarge | Walls of stone and glass tower over examples of classic furniture design, evoking the essences of architect Frank Lloyd Wright and a Japanese screen house, the philosophies of both being to bring the outdoors close — elements of nature as well as the view. A bit of manicured lawn contrasts with the unruly forest at the rear of the property.
Natural light flows through the 7,720-square-foot house like a river, starting in a glass-enclosed foyer that reveals the surprise of multiple levels: a staircase leading downward and a floating bridge on one side leading to an office, guest bath, and garage.
The light floods the formal 32-foot-long living room through a wide clerestory window in the cathedral ceiling and through the windows facing southeast down the hill. It bounces up from a continuous plane of quarter-sawn white oak flooring like a ripple-less pool around banquette and legged sofas and a pair of iconic KnollStudio Platner fiberglass and steel-wire lounge chairs.
The focal point is a fireplace with a hearth of slate and a huge surround of dry-laid Germantown mica abutting pale green glass tile. Overhead, clear-finished tongue-and-groove cedar (also used on the exterior to face broad, overhanging eaves) spotlights the fireplace and the doors leading to the steel-framed deck and its view of terrace below and trees beyond.
Exterior windows bring in the light, and interior windows spread it. The light funnels down two impossibly airy steel Brus-designed staircases with open risers, open oak-capped railings, and treads of white oak. The white oak continues as flooring throughout the lower-level dining room, kitchen, and informal living room.
The staircase from the foyer is anchored to a steel beam buried in a wall. The one in the middle of the house is screened from the kitchen by frameless ribbed-glass panels with invisibly mounted, cantilevered oak display shelves underlighted with halogen strips.
enlarge | In the kitchen, Atlantic green granite countertops reflect recessed lighting in cedar overhead. The vertical and horizontal orientation of oak cladding is the only ornamentation on the two islands, besides the higher section of countertop that hides the cooktop from the dining area. A suspended range hood continues the open layout of the house. Floating shelves, bracketed invisibly to frameless panels of ribbed glass, cloak another steel-and-oak staircase.
In the kitchen, the white oak flooring sprouts an island and cabinetry loaded with a microwave/convection oven, warming drawer, dishwasher, and more — their only ornamentation being the grain patterns laid horizontally and vertically. The range hood is suspended rather than wall-mounted and is operated remotely. One section of the Atlantic green granite countertops is jacked up to hide the cooktop from the adjacent dining room. Above, opal-glass semirecessed lights in the cedar soffiting add sparkle.
The way the white oak, glass, and native stone meet in the less formal lower-level family room evokes the spirit of Frank Lloyd Wright in scale, materials, and light. A wall of stone corners a wall of windows, making a perfect setting for examples of the owners' classic furnishings. Gable glass snuggles under the roofline, providing light and privacy. A smaller version of the upstairs fireplace holds forth in another corner. Glass doors lead outside to a stone terrace, a small lawn, the span of trees, and a little stream at the far end of the property.
Limestone joins the lineup of materials in the home's three bathrooms as wall tile, countertops, and flooring, with each of the three accented by a wall of glass tile, cedar soffiting, white oak cabinetry, and frameless mirrors and shower doors. In the kitchen-level master bathroom, intricate wood-to-stucco connections were made for a custom Japanese-style cedar soaking tub with platform and bench. Two skylights and a variety of windows, including a frosted one in the shower chamber and an aesthetic-flow-enhancing slot window into the chamber, do their duty.
For all of its beauty and ingenious features, the simple success of the design is that it brings the outdoors in, via the views, via the natural materials, via the light. - DNJ

Runaway slave ad, 1852
View this item in the Collection.
Broadsides and notices posted by slave owners or their agents offer dramatic and concrete evidence of the inhumanity of slavery. Defined as both property and responsible persons by law, slaves were sold with cows, sheep, and furniture. Denied the power to control their own lives or work, slaves ran away. The odds against escape were overwhelming; capture meant harsh punishment.
This runaway slave advertisement, printed as a broadside on August 23, 1852, announces rewards for the return of four Mississippi County, Missouri, slaves. Such an ad would be posted in public places. The notice offers descriptions of the men to aid slave catchers in identifying them. One of the runaways, named George, is called a "shrewd, smart fellow" who "plays well on the Violin." The youngest of the four men mentioned in this ad, George, if recaptured, was worth more than any of the others at $1,000. The rewards for the return of the four runaways ranged from $450 to $1,000—great sums of money that highlight the value of forced labor to slaveholders.

As the Apple iPad announcement unfolded in California, GalleyCat had a special correspondent inside the media circus: Wiley publicist and tireless reporter Cynthia Shannon.
Shannon described the event: "While we were waiting to go inside, it was clear that books were on nobody's mind–I spoke with a few tech reporters and they didn't seem to understand the impact that the iPad would have on the publishing industry … They were playing electric Bob Dylan music while the media was filing in. I didn't realize it was a huge milestone in music until someone older than me explained it."
She continued: "iBooks didn't get as big of a gasp as the $499 price tag did, but of course, I could tell it would be that way. It basically looks like Classics on the iPhone, which I personally have always thought to be the best way to read and browse books. The books are displayed cover out, in full color, on a light brown 'wood' bookshelf. Tap on one, and it takes you to the chapter index. When you flip the iPad horizontally, you are looking at two pages of a book. Flipping pages is easy–no buttons to press, easy to flip around."
She also observed: "In iBooks, you can change the font and size, but that's pretty standard. You cannot highlight or make notes. You cannot insert a bookmark–when you leave the application, it will remember where you were when you return, but it didn't work when I tried it! You can only read books that you purchase through iBooks, not through Amazon. So publishers will have to create a Kindle edition AS WELL AS an iPad edition."
Shannon concluded: "The presentation of iBooks store was like iTunes for books: you can look at the reviews, you can read sample chapters, summary, etc. This is the new storefront that publishers will have to consider now. Placement in the iBooks store. What info you want to make available. Apple could not comment on whether self-publishers will be able to upload their books."

ok my 91 mustang has its fair share of mods i'll list them B-cam advanced 4 degress thumper ported e7 heads tmoss ported stock lower intake gasket matched upper 73 mm vortech MAF CAI UD Pullies. headers and Hpipe and bullet mufflers 190lph fuel pump adj FPR i am soon to be getting a 65 or 70 mm TB i have played with timin and i have a FP guage on the rail with adj regulator so i can play with it some. but i feel there is some hidden power to be unleashed with some fine tuning. i have had people mention tuning the computer. like they said about a programmer that you plug into the computer or something and you can mess with timing, A/F and the like. is this how they work? i look around on the net and get super confused. i would like my own programmer deal and not have to get a chip and be limited to my current combo, i would like to try diff things and tinker around. can somone head me into the right direction?
i was reading about the tweecer. leme see if i right. there is a plug in that plugs to the EEC and holds the tune. if u want to change it, take it off and plug it to your pc using a USB cable, create a new tune and plug the tweecer back into the EEC?
At present I'm not sure whether spending 400 plus dollars for your current set up...the hidden power you refer to is most often 10HP or less...money better spent on upgrading worn components or suspension.
5.0's are best tuned manually, computer tuning is not usually necessary....the EEC-IV is pretty loose and imprecise, tuning is far more important on the EEC-V system that the newer cars came with. Honestly Ive had good luck tuning with just tweaking on the fuel ratio, reading the plugs, tweaking plug gaps, changing timing, and TPS voltage. Those are your best weapons in tuning a 5.0, and I've tuned a few headed/cammed 5.0's this way and gotten them to drive very well. Hell I tuned mine, over the long term, using this method doing it completely by ear smell and intuition, and when I finally got it dyno-tuned for a chip, they threw it on the dyno, added 2 degrees of total advance, not base, and said "well other than that, there isnt anything we can do, you had it perfect as it is". So I blew $450 for 3 things: EGR disabled, rev limiter disabled, and 2 degrees total timing added. Thats it!
Fuel pressure changes your A/F ratio! If you change the fuel pressure behind the injector, when it fires, it fires more fuel because its firing at a higher pressure at the same pulse-width,
IMO, I consider chip tuning necessary on speed-density motors which cant compensate as well, or when you just cant get it running well enough by other means, but as I said before the stock eec-IV will put up with a lot.
Dude you are way off. The only true way you can adjust your a/f is through the computer! Yeah you can jack up the fuel press but guess what, the computer will adjust the duty cycle on the injectors to compensate for the fuel you are trying to force through it by jacking up the pressure. No it will not be instant but your EEC will make the changes slowly over the next 100 miles or so based off what the 02's read vs what they are commanded to read
Yep. IIRC, the ECU can adjust the trim tables +/-10% to compensate, past that it hits its limit and I *imagine* would trigger a CEL for O2 rich/lean. I've found in most cases, an ECU reflash just isnt necessary or worth the money. I have aluminum heads, a rather large cam for a daily driver, upgraded injectors, the list goes on.....and having a custom chip burned, which cost me over $400 including dyno time, yielded me less than 5 horsepower, and driveability was *barely* altered. Not worth the cash for an EEC-IV, now V is a different story......and I hear the SN-95 IV systems are a PITA also.
I can see your reasoning as I experienced the same thing when I had Panhandle Performance tune my car while on vacation a few years ago (except mine cost me $600) Got the car back, it still drove like **** unless at WOT and would go dead everytime you cut the a/c on. This is the sole reason I went with a device that would allow me to do my own tuning.
I think the main benefit of tuning on a car that is only slightly modded is driveability. It will also let you squeeze out that extra few horspower. Its the little things that make the difference in the end. Also if you plan on upgrading in the future you will learn the basics of tuning and be ready to handle the more complex problems. You can change injectors when needed with a tuning program, have more cheaper options for MAF like lightning ones. OrLackThereof i respect what you say but agree to strongly disagree. I have had my tweecer on my 95 and will soon be putting it on my 1990ls. I never got it working completely on my 1995 but the car had a lot of other problems at the time that the tune couldnt fix. I really feel like tuning helps you understand your car, you get it running at its optimum, and have all the driveability of a stock car.
I agree with that. My knowledge sky rocketed when I started tuning. The EEC is nothing to be scared to learn because it makes everything so much simpler and easier to troubleshoot when you are having problems
I'm just going by my own experience, but as I mentioned, aftermarket heads, a big cam, 75mm intake, injectors, pretty much every bolt on available, and a tune did very very little for me driveability wise, the stock computer handled it all just fine. Also just finished tweaking on another guy's car, also headed/cammed/etc, also running a stock chip and A9P, and he has no driveability issues either. You mentioned you have a 95, that's probably got a lot to do with it....talking to the local tuners, they've all told me the 94-95's had "bastard-computers" that were tweaked around from a standard EEC-IV before they introduced V, which gave them a host of unique problems.
I do have more experience and knowledge of the 94-95 computers, and have not done tuning on my 1990lx yet with my tweecer. I also know that the fox computers are much more forgiving and will take mods better. I was just stating that by personally tuning you can solve pretty much any driveability issues, and you learn a lot of the way the car works. While doing that you should gain some horsepower at the same time.
Yeah I understand what you're saying and I'm sure the newer ones are much trickier....and yes a twEECer is a great tool...I'm just saying that IMO, your average fox-driver will be better off spending that money on something else. But you never know, depends on the car and combination.
Hey, my buddy has a 90 lx blown 306 stock ecm and it runs like a champ, i went with a blown 347 and couldn't get my car to come close to where my freinds was running so i had to get a chip. So if u play with the timing and fuel pressure also spark plug gap and heat range u can get the car to run pretty good, if u can't, get it to run right get something that will help u out with that. Had the car at the dyno, had a custom chip burnt for it, it ran ok, the check engine lite came on. Started to loose fuel volume(dirty fuel filter), the dyno guy wanted me to buy another fuel pump, IMO u should try it out yourself to see if u can get it right,your mass air meter sucks, had it, got rid of it, my freind had it and got rid of it, pro m is better, or the store that took it over. Both cars has better heads and cam and exhaust work
I've read through a few forums and I may be missing it, but it seems nobody has explored hte option of using megasquirt. If you dont know, MS is a fully tunable ECU that is extremely cheap. You can buy a completed board cusomized for your car, for around $400, or you can get the board in pieces and solder it together your self for only $200. I recently set one of these up for a CBR 600 engine that was on our schools formula SAE race car. It was my first endevor in this type of thing and it was a moderatly easy project, even for a beginer like myself. After you get the board, you just need a laptop and then install the free tuning software. Then start setting up maps. It may seem confusing at first but there are tons of help forums for MS. Anyway, just a thought.

You'll Never Blue Ball in This Town Again is the laugh-out-loud story of an attractive Los Angeles woman who found herself in the predicament of being an unwilling virgin.
As an actress, writer, and stand-up comedienne, Heather McDonald passed up ample opportunities to have her V-card revoked by handsome, rich, and sometimes even fabulously famous men, but she could not bring herself to do "it" until well after her friends had been deflowered. As Chelsea Handler so lovingly puts it, "Thank God, Heather waited 27 years to lose her virginity or she wouldn't have any material for this book."
Whether in a backseat, a community pool, or a sports stadium, with a frat boy, a doctor, or an A-list celebrity, Heather McDonald knew how to turn those boys blue. Unlike "putting out", blue balling might not have paid her rent or landed her free trips to Hawaii, but it did provide her with hilarious stories and adventures in her search for true love - and, ultimately, her very own happy ending. Now, Heather McDonald will never blue ball in this town again.

Program Information
The Development of a Virtual Reality Dosimetry Training Platform for Physics Training
A Beavis12*, J Ward2, (1) Queens Centre for Oncology and Haematology, Cottingham, ,(2) University of Hull, Hull,
WE-G-BRA-4 Wednesday 4:30:00 PM - 6:00:00 PM Room: Ballroom APurpose:
Recently there has been a great deal of interest in the application of Simulation methodologies for training. We have previously developed a Virtual Environment for Radiotherapy Training, VERT, which simulates a fully interactive and functional Linac. Patient and plan data can be accessed across a DICOM interface, allowing the treatment process to be simulated. Here we present a newly developed range of Physics equipment, which allows the user to undertake realistic QC processes. Five devices are available: 1) scanning water phantom, 2) 'solid water' QC block/ion chamber, 3) light/ radiation field coincidence phantom , 4) laser alignment phantom and 5) water based calibration phantom with reference class and 'departmental' ion chamber.
The devices were created to operate realistically and function as expected, each has an associated control screen which provides control and feedback information. The dosimetric devices respond appropriately to the beam qualities available on the Linac. Geometrical characteristics of the Linac, e.g. isocentre integrity, laser calibration and jaw calibrations can have random errors introduced in order to enable the user learn and observe fault conditions. In the calibration module appropriate factors for temperature and pressure must be set to correct for ambient, simulated, room conditions.
The dosimetric devices can be used to characterise the Linac beams. Depth doses with Dmax of 15mm/29mm and d10 of 67%/77% respectively for 10cm square 6/15MV beams were measured. The Quality Indices (TPR20/10 ratios) can be measured as 0.668 and 0.761 respectively.
At a simple level the tools can be used to demonstrate beam divergence or the effect of the inverse square law; They are also designed to be used to simulate the calibration of a new ion chamber. We have developed a novel set of tools that allow education of Physics processes via simulation training in our virtual environment.

Create a Beautiful Sunset Scene Using Dreamscape and 3ds Max
In this tutorial you will learn how to create a beautiful sunset over a calm sea using DreamScape and 3dsmax. DreamScape is sophisticated set of plug-ins for 3dsmax, that allows you to create and render realistic landscapes, seascapes, skies, clouds, outdoor lighting and more.
Final Effect Preview
Step 1
First of all, to render a scene with DreamScape, you will need to create a special light called "Sun". In the "Create" panel, click the "Lights" icon, then from the dropdown menu, select "DreamScape", and add a "Sun" light in the viewport.
Step 2
Move this light to the coordinates: x = 1700, y = 11000, and z = 800.
Step 3
Create a free camera, and move it to the coordinates: x = 0, y = 0, and z = 100. Rotate the camera by '87' degrees on the 'x' axis.
Step 4
Next, you will create the sun and the clouds. Press the '8' key on the keyboard, to open the "Environment" panel. In the "Atmosphere" rollout, click the "Add" button and choose "DreamScape".
Step 5
In the "General Parameters" rollout, click the "Preview" button to open the "DreamScape Sky Preview" window. This tool allows you to quickly review your sky settings in realtime.
Step 6
In the "Atmosphere Parameters" rollout, change the "Sky Density" to '5', the "Glow" value to '4', and the "H Scale" to '5000'.
Step 7
After that, change the "Haze Density" to '2', the "H Scale" to '200', and the "Brightness" value to '2'.
Step 8
In the "Clouds Parameters" rollout, change the "Clouds Type" to "Cirrus". Under the "Shape" group, change the "Detail" value to '16', the "Scale" to '0.25', the "Coverage" value to '0.8' and the "Sharpness" value to '0.5'.
Step 9
If you want to move the clouds around, you can do it in the "DreamScape Sky Preview" window. Click in the "Clouds Shape Preview", and holding the left mouse button, move the clouds and see the result in realtime. This affects the "Motion Offset" 'x' and 'y' parameters.
Step 10
Render the scene. If you want another result, you can play with all these settings until you get something you like.
Step 11
Next you will create the sea surface. Go to the "Create" panel, click the "Geometry" icon, and from the dropdown menu, select "DreamScape Objects", and add a "Sea Surface" in the viewport.
Step 12
Under the "Parameters" rollout, change the "Surface Type" to "Adaptive Mesh". This allows you to create a sea surface relative to your camera position and field of view (the sea surface that is nearest to the camera will be more detailed than the surface that is further away).
Step 13
Change the "Surface Width" to '400' and the "Surface Length" to '10000'.
Step 14
Under the "Adaptive Mesh" rollout, click the "Pick Camera" icon, and select the camera in the viewport.
Step 15
Under the "Waves" rollout, change the "Height Scale" to '0.7' and the "Choppy Waves" value to '1.3'.
Step 16
Open the "Material Editor", click the "Get Material" icon, and select "DreamScape: SeaMaterial" in the "Material Browser".
Step 17
In the "Material Editor", under the "DreamScape: SeaMaterial Parameters" rollout, set the "Sharpness" value to '10', change the "Sky Color Type" to "DreamScape Sky", and the "Underwater Color Type" to "DreamScape SubSurface".
Step 18
In the "Bump Map" slot, add a "DreamScape: Sea Bump" map to add more details to the waves. Assign this material to the "Sea Surface".
Step 19
Finally, in the "Time Configuration" panel, set the "FPS" to '25' . Turn on "Auto Key", and animate the "Sun" on the 'z' axis, from '800' at frame '0' to '600' at frame '100'. That's all, you can now render the animation.
Final Effect
Below you can see my final results. I hope you enjoyed this intro to Dreamscape in 3ds Max!

About FDA
SAFEFOOD Information Line
Description: Upgrade the SAFEFOOD Information Line - CFSAN is responsible for the Agency's 1-888-SAFEFOOD Information Line. The Information Line is an important resource that gives American consumers access to the most up-to-date, reliable food safety information. The Information Line was instituted in part to enhance FDA's ability to provide accurate and meaningful information to the public about food safety. In addition to providing food safety information, the Information Line provides assistance with other CFSAN issues including cosmetics, food additives and dietary supplements.
Accomplishment: CFSAN upgraded the Agency's 1-888-SAFEFOOD Information Line. For the last few years, the Information Line was answered through Avaya Release 2.0. It was updated to Release 5.0 and Contact Center Express 4.0 with email and a compatible Application Enablement Server were installed in August 2010. This upgrade enhanced CFSAN's tracking and reporting capabilities as well as increased quality control procedures, including:
The contractor provided training for the call center agents and provided technical assistance to successfully transition to the upgraded system. We have experienced a few technical difficulties in regard to retrieving some of the reports automatically but we continue to work with our contractors to have all reporting capabilities in place as soon as possible.

Viridian Forest Unknown Tokiwa no mori | |
Information about Viridian Forest | |
Region: | Kanto |
Connecting locations: | ↑ North – Route 2 ↓ South – Route 2 |
Weather: | |
Kind: | Forest |
Needed HM: | None |
Location of Viridian Forest in Kanto. |
The Viridian Forest is the forest that connects Viridian City to Pewter City.
[show]Anime and mangaEdit
In the anime, Viridian Forest is where Ash catches his first Pokémon, Caterpie. It's also where he battles Samurai, as shown in Challenge of the Samurai.
In the manga, Viridian Forest is home to Yellow. Also, every ten years a child is born there and possesses the abilities to heal Pokémon and read their thoughts. Named people like these are Yellow, Giovanni and Lance.
Pokémon in ForestEdit
In Viridian Forest, you can find many bug Pokémon. Some are Caterpie, Metapod, Weedle, and Kakuna. In Pokémon Red and Blue, you can also find Pikachu, but it is very rare. In Pokémon Yellow, you can find a Pidgeotto in the forest, however, it is very rare.
Other appearancesEdit
Hey You, Pikachu!Edit
Viridian Forest is also a major location in the game Hey You, Pikachu!. It is played during the beginning of the game and is where the player meets Pikachu for the first time. The player is then given the basics from Professor Oak on what commands to tell Pikachu. Eventually, at one point, Pikachu will use Thunder onto the player and steal their lunchbox. The player is forced to chase Pikachu around in Viridian Forest until they reach deeper. It turns out that Pikachu was using the toolbox to feed some Caterpie and hands back the toolbox feeling remorse for it's actions. The player then askes Pikachu to stay with them and Pikachu gladly heads back with them.Viridian Forest is also the main setting for the "Caring for Caterpie" activites. The player and Pikachu are given the task to watch over Butterfree's Caterpie. Pikachu mainly does all of the work will the player is there to tell Pikachu when a Caterpie is hungry and to tell it how to get a rosebud down.
Pokémon ChannelEdit
Viridian Forest is one of four main locations in Pokémon Channel. However, one must buy the bus ticket to Viridian Forest from Shop 'N Squirtle first. Viridian Forest is rather small comparied to it's appearance in Hey You, Pikachu! but it is most notable for having concerts here. Near the end of the game, the player can go through Viridian Forest in order to get to the campsite to view the full Pichu Bros. in Party Panic up at the starts.

This is all you need to make these amazing ribs. A roast pan (I like to use one with a removable rack so there's less mess), tin foil, paprika, salt, cumin, brown sugar and of course - ribs. You'll need your favourite barbeque sauce too. I like Chipotle for Ribs and Chicken.
Arrange the ribs in a foil lined roasting pan.
Rub the ribs with the brown sugar mixture
Cover with tin foil and bake in a 400' oven for 1 hour. After 1 hour, remove from oven and drain the fat off the ribs. Then brush them liberally with barbeque sauce and return to oven, uncovered, for about 20 minutes. I usually reduce the heat a bit for this last stage to 375'. Watch that they don't burn but you want them nice and browned and the sauce a bit bubbly.
Remove from oven, cut the ribs into single portions for ease of eating, serve with your favourite vegetables and enjoy! Usually I serve ribs with a loaded baked potato and a green vegetable but tonight I had leftover macaroni and cheese to use up so that's what you see here.

Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) July 23, 2013
Filtersfast.com, the leading online retailer for water filters and air filters, is dedicating Tuesday July 23 as Dehydration Awareness Day. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), approximately 318 Americans die every year from heat-related illnesses, in which most of these deaths are preventable. Filtersfast.com is offering cost-effective, portable and reusable water hydration products for children, outdoor enthusiasts, outdoor workers, people on the go and senior citizens.
Dehydration occurs when the body loses more fluid than what is consumed. Athletes, individuals on the go and those exposed to high temperatures should increase their water intake to avoid complications that can result from dehydration. When the body loses a significant amount of water, this can result in organs, cells and tissue failure, which may result in hospitalization. Symptoms of dehydration can include increased thirst, lightheadedness, reduced tear production, dry mouth, decreased urination and sleepiness. Severe dehydration can trigger rapid breathing, low blood pressure, a fever, inability to sweat, excessive thirst and dark urine.
Filtersfast.com realizes the consequences of dehydration and advises their customers to fight the symptoms that could result from a lack of sufficient water consumption. In observance of the company's Dehydration Awareness Day, they offer portable and reusable hydration products from Vapur, Klean Kanteen, Katadyn, Clear2Go, Aquamira and Dupont.

Pailian Arrows, the experimental youth team of the All India Football Federation, opened the pack of surprises right at the start of the tournament holding former champion Dempo SC 1-1 in a Group A league encounter of the 34th Federation Cup football at JRD Tata Complex here on Wednesday.
In another match of the same group, Shillong Lajong FC got the better of Mumbai FC 2-1.
The Kolkata-based Pailan Arrows, coached by Australian Arthur Papas, matched the Goa giant move for move and earned some well-deserved credit for holding the five-time National and I-League champion to a draw.
Arrows looked the more enterprising in the first half and commanded the midfield with more authority. Alwyn George and Milan Singh held up the Arrows midfield and created good scoring opportunities against Dempo, which was more tentative in the first half.
With the first session remaining barren, the game opened up after the break as Arrows got rewarded first for its efforts.
Milan Singh set up striker Holicharan Narzary, who shot home from an acute angle to give Arrows the lead in the 52nd minute.
Dempo effected a change in its attack after conceding the goal, replacing new Japanese recruit Ryuiji Sueoka with Nigerian Koko Sakibo.
As the Nigerian increased pressure in the striking zone, Dempo's utility-man Clifford Miranda fetched the leveller in the 60th minute showing fine individual skills.
Undaunted Arrows pressed on looking for the lead. It could well have ended with a win had not Narzary's second attempt in the 85th minute ricocheted off the crosspiece.
In the other match at Keenan Stadium, Lajong FC opened the scoring in the 43rd minute when John Mayongar converted a penalty after a Mumbai FC defender handled the ball inside the box.
But Lajong's lead was nixed two minutes later as Ndobusi Opara brought Mumbai FC back in the game with a solo effort.
The match remained deadlocked till the 82nd minute when Gbeneme Friday headed home from close range to give Lajong the winner.
The results: Pailan Arrows 1 (Holicharan Narzary 52) drew with Dempo SC 1 (Clifford Miranda 60).
Shillong Lajong 2 (John Mayongar 43 (pen), Gbeneme Friday 82) bt Mumbai FC 1 (Ndobusi Opara 45).
Thursday's matches: At Siliguri (Kanchanjungha Stadium): Group B: Air India vs Mohammedan Sporting (3 p.m.); Churchill Brothers vs Mohun Bagan (7 p.m.).
At Jamshedpur: Group D: Salgaocar vs Prayag United (JRD Tata Sports Complex,3 p.m.); Pune FC vs United Sikkim FC (Keenan Stadium, 3 p.m.).

He doesn't even have to drop it inside the 5..... 5 yards into the endzone would be fine. But my coverage team has to be at the 20, or at the very least crossing the 25 when it's fielded. I want that guy to come out of the endzone, because I want to stop him before the 20.
I want him to risk fumbling the ball.
If our Special Teams were as bad as they were last year, absolutely I want to kick it out the back of the endzone every time.
Gotcha....That makes sense to me...

Excelent experience. The most amazing was their shipping speed. My order was qualified for free shipment, but even more - shipped for free to me was delivered the NEXT day! Excelent service, straight business. According to my experience, I recomend their business to everybody. N. R.
I am a first time buyer through Parts Geek and it was an uneventful experience. That was refreshing since I was not sure what to expect from them and had not heard about them before. Check-out was very simple and straight forward with no push for more purchases nor any kind of "live person" follow-up calls to upsell or badger me. Funny thing that I got the best deal straight from the website. I also tried a special deal through one of the coupon finder companies and their reported coupon was actually less of a deal than what was just directly available on the site. I will happily buy again from PartsGeek and refer them for folks looking for good prices on auto parts.
