President Barack Obama used his State of the Union address to call for an end to the politics of austerity -- and to pitch a plan for implementing an aggressively liberal agenda without breaking the bank. The president called for key policies to be funded using public-private partnerships and state-federal cost-sharing, or by establishing creative tax credits to spur private investment. "It's not a bigger government we need, but a smarter government that sets priorities and invests in broad-based growth," Obama said.

What's the boy gonna do with all the naughty-looking tools around? Nobody can see him in the room, so he feels like playing a bit. Getting his shirt off he runs a self-checkup on his body which does feel sexy. His hands wander below and soon he's fully naked – and hard, too. Watching himself on the display, he plays with his fat, stiff cock. So many naughty things to do in the office when the doctor is not around! See that pump being used by the naughty boy who fills its glass with his own throbbing meat! Pretty soon, the boy will shoot his precious seed

PAUL GIGOT: Winners and losers, picks and pans. We call it "Tony and Tacky," our choices for the best and worst of the week. From Dorothy Rabinowitz this week, these pictures of Lady Antonia Fraser and novelist John le Carre, two of the prominent Brits who tried to influence American voters this week. Dorothy, what's the story?
DOROTHY RABINOWITZ: Well, this is a tony, but not to them. This is the most mind-boggling effort on the part of the British newspaper, The Guardian, to try to get these people, notable Britons, to go and influence Americans in Ohio, a very important state, to tell them to vote for John Kerry. And one of them was Lady Antonia Fraser, one of the elite members of the British elite who has never lost an opportunity to express her loathing for all aspects of American policy. Another one's le Carre. Another one was Richard Dawkins, who told people that Americans should vote this gun-slinger out of office. Well, what a misreading of the American psyche. One American in Ohio reminded them of a certain war that had been fought in 1776 over this kind of interference, another one simply told the illustrious British to go back to sipping their tea. And there were a lot more impolite responses. I don't know the names of these Ohioans, but to all of them a huge, shiny tony.
PAUL GIGOT: Dorothy, I used to love John le Carre's novels during the Cold War, but I don't think he's been the same since the Berlin War fell. Thank you.
Dan Henninger is exercised this week about this film called "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal." Well, not about the film, but what happened when Sinclair Broadcasting said it wanted to broadcast the film on its television stations? Dan, that film is about John Kerry's anti-war activities after he got back from Viet Nam, and his impact on the American prisoners in Hanoi. Tony or tacky?
DAN HENNINGER: Well, what happened here is tacky. It's dangerously tacky. Let's run through the sequence of events pretty quickly. Sinclair said it was going to run this movie critical of John Kerry. The Democrats gather themselves up, and they say they're going to boycott Sinclair. Fine, that's been done before.
Then, a strike suit lawyer in California, filed a law suit saying that the loss of advertising is driving down Sinclair's stock price so they have to be sued. Then, Alan Hevesi, the New York State Comptroller, sends them a letter on behalf of the State Pension Fund, threatening them. Now here we've gotten to the point, it's like the world of Vladimir Putin, for gosh sakes. We're using shareholder law suits, and we're using a threat of pension withdrawals as a political weapon. This is bad. Because believe me, the next time this happens, the right is going to think about using it against a CBS or a New York Times. Terrible, terrible precedent.
PAUL GIGOT: Yeah, I'm afraid you're right about that precedent, Dan. Thank you. And finally, Susan Lee. She's been watching those Boston baseball fans and considering whether to award them a Tony for their contribution to the theological debate over the usefulness of prayer.
SUSAN LEE: Well, now some people would say that the fans were actually just warming their hands. But I would give them a Tony for warming their hands. But I'm going to give them a Tony for what I think is taking a stand on what has been a very enduring theological debate on the power of intercessory prayer. Now one side of this debate says God is all-knowing, so we don't have to pray. God already knows. The other side says God is all-knowing, but God wants to see a little energy from us. Now both sides say that God grants our petitions in God's own mysterious way. So we have no idea if what we were seeing there were answered prayers, or God, the Red Sox fan.
PAUL GIGOT: Susan, I don't know what God's going to think of this, but I think the St. Louis Cardinals are going to win the World Series. Thanks.

AHSAA comes down hard on schools, coaches for last Friday's bloody brawl
Published: Friday, September 6, 2013 at 9:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 6, 2013 at 9:23 a.m.
Walker High School football coach John Holladay and Cullman High School assistant coach Matt Hopper have been suspended for the rest of the 2013 season for fighting during a game on Aug. 30, officials said Thursday.
Cullman had scored a touchdown with 18 seconds left on the clock to beat Walker, its bitter rival, 13-10 and the fight broke out just as the teams were leaving the field.
Television footage showed Hopper approaching Holladay before Holladay threw the first punch. Hopper emerged from the melee with blood streaming down his face. It's unclear what led up to the fight, and the Cullman Times reported that Holladay has resigned from his position.
Walker High School has been put on restrictive probation for the rest of the 2013 football season, and Cullman High School has been put on nonrestrictive probation for a year. Restrictive probation means Walker High School is barred from participating in any post-season games — including championship games — during its probationary period.
Walker was already on probation for a 2012 incident, officials said.
The Cullman Times reported the two teams were nearly involved in a brawl during a playoff game last year, and the Cullman squad headed straight for the locker room afterward instead of participating in the usual midfield meeting.
Each school has also been fined $1,500 for flagrant unsportsmanlike conduct, which could be lowered to $1,000 if the teams and coaches participate in an AHSAA professional development mentoring program.
"The AHSAA encourages the two schools to work together to enhance relations between their student-athletes and communities and, in doing so, demonstrate the leadership necessary to foster the AHSAA's mission of good sportsmanship in interscholastic athletics," AHSAA Executive Director Steve Savarese said in a statement.
Walker High School has been placed on restrictive probation for the remainder of the 2013 football season and Cullman High School has been placed on non-restrictive probation for one year and each school fined $1,500 for flagrant unsportsmanlike conduct during an altercation between both schools following their varsity football game at Jasper Aug. 30.
Walker head coach John Holladay and Cullman assistant coach Matt Hopper have been suspended for the remainder of the 2013 football season for their involvement in the incident.
Walker High School is currently on non-restrictive probation for a flagrant unsportsmanlike incident during the 2012 football season that resulted in a warning that if a similar incident occurred during that probationary period, restrictive sanctions would be assessed.
A second year of restrictive probation will be assessed to Walker High School if Holladay is the WHS head football coach. If not, the school is assessed a one-year probationary period for the 2014 football season that is non-restrictive.
Restrictive probation limits the school's football teams to participation only in regular-season games and prohibits the school from participating in an interscholastic football contest involving more than two schools, including championships, for the duration of the restrictive probation.
Cullman High School is placed on probation for the remainder of the 2013 season and received a warning that should similar incidents occur in the future, restrictive sanctions may be assessed.
The AHSAA encourages the two schools to work together to enhance relations between their student-athletes and communities and, in doing so, demonstrate the leadership necessary to foster the AHSAA's mission of good sportsmanship in interscholastic athletics," said AHSAA Executive Director Steve Savarese.
"It is time to move the focus away from this isolated event and note the outstanding sportsmanship that is exhibited across our state by our member schools, teams and coaches each week. Let's now move forward and accent the positive impact education-based athletics makes daily in the lives of our student-athletes, coaches, schools and communities."
It is a recommendation of the AHSAA that both schools' football players and coaches complete one professional development session administered by the AHSAA's mentoring program. If so, the $1,500 fine for each school will be reduced to $1,000.
Any additional statements must come from the schools. The AHSAA will make no additional statement concerning this matter.

At the same time it was not always easy to figure out what you think are the most important issues, or to give proper feedback once things were fixed. We want to communicate with you better than that. So: we're excited to announce our new feedback system, UserVoice. It will make it much easier for everyone to submit bugs or feature requests, and to see what we're working on at any given moment. Please take a moment to read how it works before jumping in: What does it do? UserVoice is divided into three sections, 'Bugs & Problems', 'Suggestions: 3D Printing' and 'Suggestions: Website'. Anyone can enter a bug or feature request or 'vote' on an item that already exists. A vote indicates that you care about an issue and think that we should really work on it. You get 10 'votes' and you can spend 1, 2 or 3 votes on an issue. Reporting an issue requires you to assign at least one vote to the issue. Once an issue is closed (either solved or declined), you'll get your vote points back. The reason that we have a limited number of votes is that this forces everyone to think carefully about which issues are really important to them. Please note that UserVoice is meant only for bugs and features which affect the whole community. It is not meant for customer support requests! Please mail firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions about your orders. How to use it First, please check if your idea is already in the list. You can use either the search option or just enter your idea in the box titled 'please describe your suggestion here' - a list of matching existing ideas will be shown. For new ideas, describe your idea as accurately as you can. In case of a bug, please state clearly which part of the website the issue has surfaced on, and mention all the required steps to replicate the issue. Include URLs where possible. For existing ideas, check the description and comments and add your own comment to the discussion if required. Also, you can leave 1-3 votes to indicate the importance of this issue to you. Note: UserVoice is an external service and you have to create an account to use it. We'll work on full site integration in the next few weeks so you'll only have to log in once. Please use the same email address as what you use for your regular Shapeways account, so we can properly connect your Shapeways account to your UserVoice account once the 'single sign-on' is in place. What happens after you submit an idea? We treat bugs and feature suggestions differently: bugs are things that are broken and should be fixed, while feature suggestions will have to be matched to our longer-term plans and vision. In both cases we'll use the number of votes to select the most urgent issues to look at. Priority doesn't guarantee the order in which we work though - sometimes it makes sense to do something else first if our developers are working in that area anyway, for example. Especially with feature suggestions we may sometimes decide that we will not implement something. But, no matter what we decide, we'll make sure you receive a clear response. Special thanks! Special thanks go to our dedicated team of community beta testers! Over the last few weeks they've given us a lot of useful feedback, and moved all existing issues from the forum into UserVoice. Magic, Stonysmith, Stop4stuff, Virtox and Youknowwho4eva - you're the best!! Ready? Here's the link: http://feedback.shapeways.com Enjoy, and thanks!

If you feel a new item you want to post is important, you can retract your vote from another issue. Just discovered you can add a new item and retract your vote leaving the item with 0 votes, but you can vote on it later. Regarding your issues: 1) I can not reproduce, links work for me, takes me right to the issue/thread. 2) Also cannot reproduce, with one vote, left I could still post an idea. Can you provide more info where things go wrong for you? Thanks! ]]> virtox 2011-12-04T20:14:04-00:00 Re: New community feedback tool: UserVoice! http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=39817&th=7326#msg_39817 2) is probably because I have 15 votes.

Can I live with it or is a correction immedeatly needed. (that's more short handed and changes day by day) From my point of view a class (1,2,3) without restriction would do the best since it gives your planning a good choice to decide what are the most painful topics. For sure that needs some discipline of the voters. (OK: Maybe that can also be solved with votes characterizing that as the 10 most painful topics. But for sure should be separated from enhancements) Woody64 ]]> woody64 2011-12-26T10:17:39-00:00 Re: New community feedback tool: UserVoice! http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=41047&th=7326#msg_41047 be assured that we are monitoring the 'bugs' section closely and if anything urgent pops up we'll handle it immediately, regardless of the number of votes.

Common mistakes during Open Season
Wednesday - 12/7/2011, 3:58pm EST
By Jolie Lee
Web Editor
Federal News Radio
Federal employees have until Dec. 12 to decide on a health plan during this year's Open Season.
Walt Francis, editor of the Checkbook Guide to Health Plans for Federal Employees, said some common mistakes during Open Season include only considering the premium when making a choice and overlooking the inclusion of your spouse in the health coverage.
Another mistake, particularly for young feds, is they don't buy any health coverage at all.
"That's nuts," Francis said in an interview with Your Turn with Mike Causey.
Many plans in the Federal Employees Health Benefits program have annual premiums of about $2,400. "And you may get a savings account, which with the tax savings on the premium, could leave you better off at the end of the year, if you're healthy, than if you'd had no insurance at all," Francis said. "so it's kind of a no-brainer. It's kind of like free insurance."
Feds also forget to consider flexible spending accounts, Francis said. FSAs are pre-tax dollars set aside to pay for health expenses. Francis said only about 20 percents of feds sign up for FSA's but, "probably 90 percent should." With the tax advantage, FSAs are like a "one-third discount" but is also "use or lose" money that cannot carry over to the next year.
With feds' pay frozen — and threats of extending the freeze — combined with rising premiums, feds can save money by making the right help plan choice.
"Give yourself a pay raise by going to a less costly plan choice. Give yourself another pay raise by using a flexible spending account," Francis said. "People who don't make those decisions by Dec. 12, which is less than a week away, are throwing money away."
In the second half of Your Turn, Mike talked to Sean Reilly and Steve Losey of The Federal Times.

text: yamuna pollution Leave a reply Water Pollution in Yamuna Ji – An Artical By Vipan Kumar Abstract Yamuna river is one of the important all-weather rivers of India originating from Himalayas. In India rivers are seen with great respect and draw ethical values. Regular fares and community baths are organised on important occasions on the riverbanks. The river Yamuna covers 345,850 sq km of area while traversing from Himalayas to the plains of Uttar Pradesh at Allahabad and there it loses its identity. It serves as lifeline to the people while flowing through its path. It provides drinking water, irrigation to a vast area and helps in generating electric power. However rapid industrialization, deforestation and urbanization led to large discharge of industrial waste and sewage system to this, otherwise clean river. This has resulted in condition when water has become unfit for drinking. It is not safe for even animals, birds, fishes etc. The level of total coliform is twice the permissible limit at the time when Yamuna enters Delhi, becomes 25 times till it leaves Delhi. This all happens in a short span of traversing 21 km of so called 'Delhi segment'. With the awareness created recently, steps are being taken to plant trees along the catchment area to prevent flow of loose soil to river. Initiatives have also been taken to control flow of untreated industrial waste and raw sewage to the river. Introduction India is herited with plenty of all weather rivers. These rivers traverse most part of country. Most of the rivers are seen with interest by beneficiary population of India and thus have a great mythological significance. A near Goddess status has been given to rivers like Ganga. Yamuna being one of the major tributaries of Ganga also gets same credentials. According to a sacred myth, all sins are washed away by bathing seven times in the Yamuna. Yamuna, more colloquially known as Jamuna, rises from the Bundar Poonch glaciers in Uttarkashi, which is also known as Jamunotri. It is joined by Tons river, which is the largest tributary of Yamuna along the border of Himachal Pradesh. When it reaches the North Indian plains it is met with its other tributaries like Chambal,Betwa and Ken. The river covers as many as seven states and it flows almost entirely through Delhi, where it is also exploited the most. Such is the Impact of Yamuna and other North Indian rivers that the entire region is regarded as most fertile land in the Indian subcontinent. The total area it covers before merging to majestic Ganga is 345,850 square km. Pollution problem of Yamuna In the past the river used to be the main source of life for drinking water, communication and irrigation. Thus serving as the lifeline for the human kind. The pollutants were limited to storm water drains. But with the post world war II in general and post independence in particular, India witnessed massive deforestation leading to soil erosion and related problems. Simultaneously industrialization and emphasis of modern living gained momentum. All the major industries are on the bank of one or the other river. Yamuna outnumbers any other river in the number of industries on its banks. This is because it passes through many major (post independence) industrial cities. But real problem of Yamuna pollution starts when it passes through state of Delhi. Research shows that before it passes through Delhi, the water quality is very much under control (see Fig.1). The stretch between Wazirabad and Okhla barrage in Delhi is only 2% of its catchment area, but it contributes about 80% of the river's total pollution load. More than 57 million people depend on the Yamuna River for drinking water, but at least 720 mld (190 mgd) of wastewater entering the river is untreated, according to the National River Conservation Directorate (NRCD; New Delhi), the federal agency responsible for cleanup efforts in India. Organic pollutants and pathogens in wastewater make up approximately 75% to 80% of the river's pollution load, while most other pollution comes from industrial discharges. About 2000 million litres of sewage is pumped into the river from Delhi every day, and its water is now unfit to support any life. Among the first causalities is aquatic flora and fauna, which support many birds and mammals, which are involuntary sufferers. Many exotic bird and fish species are thus either become locally extinct or are on the brink of extinction. There are 16 major drains along the stretch that discharge treated and untreated wastewater from industries and sewage of Delhi and Haryana. The Hindon Canal also discharges waste from Uttar Pradesh in this stretch. The 22 km between the Wazirabad and Okhla barrages is called Delhi segment, while the 490 km stretch between Okhla barrage and the confluence with the Chambal River is known as the eutrophicated segment because of the quality of its water. Average value of typical physico-chemical parameters in three locations in Delhi along the Yamuna is depicted in Fig.1. According to Fig.1(b) the value of total coliform upstream of Delhi is twice the standard value that means the pollution level is already twice before Yamuna enters Delhi. After it passes through Delhi, the pollution level goes 25 times the maximum allowable! Though the point sources like industrial waste and sewage are the first order contamination sources in our rivers, the non-point sources are also major contributor to the Yamuna pollution. Non-point source pollution means water pollution other than that caused by a discharge pipe from a factory or municipal sewage treatment plant. Even though animals also contribute to non-point pollution, most of non-point pollution is due to human activities. Construction related erosion, sedimentation, agricultural storm water runoff, outdated urban septic systems, fertilizers and pesticides are some of the resultant contaminants in Yamuna due to non-point sources. Levels of such contaminants in both surface and ground water is disturbing. Once the contaminants enter the water source, there is a difficult and expensive procedure to remove them. As a result to the growing water pollution, mineral water market is growing with a tremendous pace. Earlier it used to be the luxury only suitable for rich, now it has become popular in lower middle class also. There is a great scope of this industry in India with a current turnover of 300 crore and a staggering growth rate of 50% per annum. But in India as the quality consciousness is always lacking, there are increasing number of reports of harmful liquids being sold on the name of mineral water. The CPCB (Central Pollution Control Board) monitors the water quality of the Yamuna in Delhi, and it is graded in the severely polluted category, fit only for recreation, aesthetics, and industrial cooling. According to the CPCB, 70% of the pollution in rivers is from untreated sewage. The remaining 30% is from industrial source, agricultural run-off, garbage, etc. Delhi's population, which stood at 9.37 million in 1991, is now estimated to be around 13 million, and is projected to rise to 20 million by 2010. The Yamuna is the source of 70 per cent of Delhi's water supplies; and raw water required in 2010 would approximately be 4,030mld, with generated sewage at around 3,920mld. Currently, though, Delhi has the capacity to treat only 1,153mld sewage, while its sewerage network is capable of delivering only 885.3mld to the STPs. Although raw water requirements for Delhi are likely to be met by water stored in the Tehri dam, sewage treatment remains a sore point. "2,083mld of wastewater is generated within the sewered areas of Delhi," notes a recent Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) report. "Even in the sewered areas, all sources of wastewater (including households) are not connected to the sewerage system. As a result, a significant volume of wastewater generated remains untapped and finds its way into open drains." It comes as no surprise, then, that Delhi treats only 35 per cent of its sewage. Yamuna Ji Pollution Survey Report Shri Yamuna Ji Survey Report Shri Yamuna Ji Survey Report – WPPS consultancy firm was hired by Shri Maan Mandir Seva Sansthan to conduct a survey of Shri Yamuna ji on current pollution situation near Sher Gadh where Shri Yamuna ji enters Shri Braj Dham. The report looks horible. Below is the scanned copy of the report:

tion Security (DIS). This individual could chair an interagency committee consisting of agencies and departments with a direct interest in and responsibilities for information security matters, including the operating agency, economic policy agencies (Departments of Treasury and Commerce), law enforcement agencies (FBI; Drug Enforcement Administration; Bureau of Alcohol, Tobaccco, and Firearms), and international affairs and intelligence agencies (Departments of State and Defense, CIA).
Operationally, a single agency could have responsibility for standards setting, certification of escrow agents, approval of certificate holders for authentication purposes, public education on information security, definition of "best practices," management of cryptography on the Commerce Control List, and so on. The operating agency could be one with an economic policy orientation, such as the Department of Commerce. An alternative point of responsibility might be the Treasury Department, although its law enforcement responsibilities could detract from the objective of raising the economic policy profile of the information security function.
The public advisory committee, which is an essential element of this structure, could be made up of representatives of the computing, telecommunications, and banking industries, as well as "public" members from academia, law, and so on. This committee could be organized along the lines of the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board and could report to the Counselor for DIS.
This chapter describes a number of possible policy options but does not attempt to pull together how these options might fit together in a coherent policy framework. That is the function of Chapter 8.

25 November 2013 15:04 [Source: ICIS news]
LONDON (ICIS)--Turkish fertilizer producers are facing depressed prices, low volume growth, competitive pressure from imports and high positioning on the global cost curve, an investment bank said on Monday.
Initiating coverage of Gubretas and Bagfas, which it rated as 'hold' and 'sell', respectively, WOOD & Company said that against this backdrop of difficulties it saw vertical integration as "the key differentiating factor driving earnings resilience".
"While domestic players continue to seek growth via capacity expansion, we believe the upside to profitability remains largely capped in the context of Turkey's low capacity utilisation rates and limited international competitiveness," said Piotr Drozd, an analyst at the bank.
"In this context, we see Gubretas as the best-positioned to perform in the current environment, with its low-cost, Iranian upstream exposure, market-leading position in Turkish distribution and healthy balance sheet," he added.
Looking at Bagfas, Drozd said the market was over-rating the company's earnings upside stemming from likely reduced input costs in 2014 and capacity expansion in 2015.
"Bagfas's lack of integration and dependence on imported feedstock largely cap the margin upside, in our view, while the bulky capex, financed by Euro-denominated debt, increases the project risks," he added.
Turkey, which is largely supplied by imported fertilizers, suffers from a lack of key fertilizer feedstock, including phosphate rock and potash salt, and from insufficient competitively-priced natural gas, the bank said.
"With Turkish fertilizer production geared to NPK [nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium], DAP [diammonium phosphate] and TSP [tripolyphosphate] fertilizers, the 28-29% year-on-year slump in global DAP and NPK pricing continues to weigh on margins," said Drozd, noting there is a lukewarm outlook for global fertilizer demand growth in 2014.

HOLLYWOOD, FL, November 21 Team Miranda press release: In response to a recent news item that saw Wilfried Sauerland - promoter of IBF Middleweight champion Arthur Abraham state that he expects his fighter to be back in action in April while making no mention of his requirement to fight number one contender Edison Miranda by June 23rd, Pantera took time out from his preparation for his HBO debut to make the following blunt comments.
It was very interesting to read that Arthur Abraham has received offers to fight in the United States in April, said Miranda. I truly hope that the champion is not looking to avoid his mandatory commitment to me. Remember, Arthur, we have a date to fight no later than June 23 and as the great Joe Louis said, You can run, but you cant hide. I will hunt you down if I have to.
Miranda was robbed of the IBF title against Abraham on September 23rd in Germany in one of the most controversial middleweight championship bouts in history.
After the 12 round controversial decision went against Miranda, the IBF elected to keep the Colombian bomber in the number one spot, thus mandating a rematch with the champion as soon as Abraham healed from the jaw Miranda broke in two places in the fourth round of the bout.
Miranda will make the first defense of his Peoples Middleweight Championship as the headliner on HBO on December 16th against hard-hitting Willie Gibbs. The bout will be held at Miccosukee Resort & Gaming in Miami, Florida and will be televised live on HBOs BAD series.

On the newer Hunters the hull deck joint occurs below the deck level. The deck molding turns down toward the topsides and then has a flange that turns outward. Similarly the top of the hull molding has a flange that turns out. This joint is then glued together and bolted. The primary bond is formed by a very hogh strength adhesive developed for the aerospace industry. It is similar to the adhesive used by Catalina.
The out-turning flanges are then covered by a rubber rub rail. A rolled out flange is less expensive and a bit easier to build as the molds do not have to be disassembled to remove the flange and the radii are all outside turns.
In my mind it is preferable for the joint to occur at the deck line with a flange turned in. When the flange turns in at the underside of the deck the joint only experiences sheer, compression and tension but no bending. With an outward facing flange the flange can experience a lot of bending moment across the joint.
The other issue is that the flanges can be much larger on an inward facing flange. This means more surface for the adhesive (reducing loads per square inch) and there is more room for bolting.
Last year I moderated an online question and answer session with a rep from Hunter. In that discussion with Hunter, the joint question was addressed to Hunter. Hunter was asked, "Why does Hunter use an outward facing flange hull deck joint?"
Hunter responded, "We do use outboard lapped flanges because they are easier to construct than inboard flanges. We cycle tooling at a rather high rate and to obtain that rate sometimes we need two to four sets of identical tooling. That adds up fast because tooling is the major investment in FRP construction. Outward flange tooling allows more rapid reuse of tooling.
I don''t argue that an inboard lapped flange is better. But I will argue that an outboard flange for the reasons mentioned earlier is more than adequate and is construction friendly. It is certainly better than a shoe box joint that provides none of the benefits of either and is more prone to leaking and harder to repair if damaged. Inboard lapped joints tend to be harder to repair and harder to access it''s fasteners."
Its hard to describe this kind of thing over this media so I don''t know if that answers you question clearly but I would be glad to discuss it further.

A man is changed into a flea and must bring his future parents together in order to become human again. A woman convinces a river god to cure her sick son, but the remedy has mixed consequences. A young man must choose whether to be close to his wife's soul or body. And two deaf mutes transcend their physical existence in the garden of dreams. Strange and fantastical, these fairy tales of Béla Balázs (1884-1949), Hungarian writer, film critic, and famous librettist of Bluebeard's Castle, reflect his profound interest in friendship, alienation, and Taoist philosophy. Translated and introduced by Jack Zipes, one of the world's leading authorities on fairy tales, The Cloak of Dreams brings together sixteen of Balázs's unique and haunting stories.
Written in 1921, these fairy tales were originally published with twenty images drawn in the Chinese style by painter Mariette Lydis, and this new edition includes a selection of Lydis's brilliant illustrations. Together, the tales and pictures accentuate the motifs and themes that run throughout Balázs's work: wandering protagonists, mysterious woods and mountains, solitude, and magical transformation. His fairy tales express our deepest desires and the hope that, even in the midst of tragedy, we can transcend our difficulties and forge our own destinies.
Unusual, wondrous fairy tales that examine the world's cruelties and twists of fate, The Cloak of Dreams will entertain, startle, and intrigue.

Atlantic City to Build Holocaust Museum
Hopefully won't inspire binge drinking, excessive gambling
Have you ever found yourself in Atlantic City, a bagful of saltwater taffy in hand, wishing there was someplace more somber to visit than Ripley's Believe it or Not! museum? If so, then this one's for you: a group of locals are busy planning a Holocaust museum to be placed right smack on the main boardwalk. The committee's VP puts their reasoning this way: "Why not?" Indeed! Local politicians have already donated the site, and architects Daniel Libeskind and Richard Meier have agreed to judge a design competition for the building, with guidelines including that the museum should "not be stark" and "blend in with the motif of the boardwalk."
One visitor who happened upon a Holocaust Remembrance Day event recently held on the future site approved of the plan. "As to whether a memorial fits in with the scene overlooking the Atlantic," says the Jerusalem Post, he replied "Where did the Holocaust fit in with life?" Mayor Lorenzo T. Langford sees the location more pragmatically: "The boardwalk is the most densely traveled pedestrian thoroughfare in the nation. If you're going to have a memorial, there's no better place to have it." If nothing else, down on their luck gamblers will have a reminder that it could always be worse.

Saddle Pad Designed for A-Circuit Saddles
Horse Tack - Saddle Pads
Fleeceworks, the company that brings you high quality Australian Merino sheepskin saddle pads and accessories, is taking the heat off the A-circuit saddle market with their new pad, the Showhunter.
Combining a distinctive cut customized to the more refined shape that's popular with many of the top A-circuit saddle brands, with an even inch of sheared down Merino sheepskin around the flap and seat for the coveted classic Hunter look, the Showhunter pad offers a fit and ultra-clean look that's so important to the Hunters.
But this pad isn't just "A-circuit pretty"; it has an important job to do as well, one that makes it unique in today's Hunter market. Fleeceworks has incorporated their popular Perfect BalanceTM system into the Showhunter which allows a rider to fine tune the pad for the ultimate saddle fit. The Perfect Balance system uses strategically placed inserts made from visco elastic foam to tactically support the ideal saddle balance. All inserts are removable and sit in pockets in the interior of the pad, making them completely invisible from the outside. And like all Fleeceworks™ saddle pads, the Showhunter features bi-level sheepskin for an ideal bulk/benefit ratio; effectively eliminating needless bulk, giving the rider maximum contact, and relieving pressure points while providing superior heat and moisture management that's so critical for performance horses. The Fleeceworks Showhunter pad retails for $164.00 and can be found at tack shops nationwide.
At the heart of everything Fleeceworks does is the love for their horses and passion for their sport. Excess heat and moisture and imperfect saddle fit are the most common causes of back problems encountered in sport horses. Fleeceworks mission is to design and produce quality products that impart therapeutic benefits paramount to the continuous health and performance of all horses. Fleeceworks products are a staple in the schooling and showing equipment of many top riders and Olympians, including Amy Tryon, Stuart Black, Kevin Babington, Joie Gatlin, Molly Tall, Leslie Reid and High School Master Joao Olivera. For more information on the Showhunter pad or other Fleeceworks products, or to locate your nearest dealer, call (760) 788-5949. You can also visit them on the web at www.fleeceworks.com.

Bohol, Cebu residents warned vs giant sinkholes
Bohol and Cebu have sinkholes just waiting for heavy rains and floods or earthquakes to collapse and swallow entire towns.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said Thursday the 7.2-magnitude earthquake was possibly caused by the movement of a fault line that remained uncharted because of the limestone base of Bohol.
Environment Secretary Ramon Paje said the provinces of Bohol and Cebu, along with Baguio City, had foundations of solid limestone, which had been weathered and carved out naturally through a long period of time, making it prone to sinkholes.
"[A sinkhole] is always a danger so it is important to identify where it is in an area," Paje told the Inquirer.
He said sinkholes already existed in most areas of Bohol, Cebu and Baguio City, but were still not apparent.
In a lay person's view, he said, a sinkhole is a visible, deep depression on the ground. But in geology, "[i]t is a vacuum beneath the ground or top soil waiting for an occurrence (earthquake or heavy rain) to rupture."
Paje said he had ordered the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) to expedite the geohazard mapping, specifically of sinkholes, in the provinces of Bohol and Cebu.
"It is more than 50 percent complete for the two provinces. The sinkhole mapping has already been completed in Baguio City. It was previously supposed to be due by the end of 2014 but the MGB committed to finish the geohazard mapping within the first quarter of next year," he said.
Paje said, however, that the local governments of Bohol and Cebu are "very much aware" of the existing sinkholes.
Solid limestone
Asked how much of Cebu and Bohol was made of limestone, Paje said the two provinces were almost entirely of solid limestone.
"Bohol's base is limestone and coral," he said.
Paje cited some areas of Chocolate Hills in Bohol, the topsoil of which had collapsed.
"The white that appeared is solid limestone. If you would look closely, what was shed off was the topsoil and grass," he said.
Citing MGB records, Paje said the Chocolate Hills were formed 15 million years ago under water.
The movement of water against coral and limestone shaped Chocolate Hills, he said.
The MGB, Paje added, is verifying the report of a sinkhole somewhere in Cebu that ruptured following Tuesday's earthquake.
According to the US Geological Survey website, "[s]inkholes are common where the rock below the land surface is limestone, carbonate rock, salt beds, or rocks that can naturally be dissolved by groundwater circulating through them. As the rock dissolves, spaces and caverns develop underground."
Uncharted fault line
Meanwhile, Phivolcs science research assistant Karl Vincent Soriano said the movement of the East Bohol fault may not have actually caused the powerful quake that jolted vast areas of the Visayas as well as portions of Southern Luzon and Mindanao on Tuesday.
"Based on our records of aftershocks, the movement of a different and unmapped fault system possibly triggered the 7.2-magnitude earthquake," he said, adding that the fault system is somewhere between the towns of Sagbayan and Catigbian in Bohol.
"Our initial report that it was likely triggered by the East Bohol fault was based on our map of active faults. This fault system is not yet charted," Soriano said, adding that limestone areas are extremely difficult for geologists to map.
He explained that limestone is easily weathered so geologists find it difficult to trace previous signs of ground movement that have been "erased."
Soriano said one of the two Phivolcs teams deployed to Bohol had been tasked to verify the existence of the uncharted fault line, apart from making a hazard assessment in the province.
As of noon Thursday, Phivolcs has recorded 1,328 aftershocks, 27 of which were felt.
The strongest was 5.5 magnitude, which occurred at around 7:37 a.m. on Thursday.
The tremor had a depth of focus of a kilometer and had its epicenter at 18 kilometers northwest of Tagbilaran City.
An Intensity VI tremor was felt in Tagbilaran City; Intensity IV in Dumaguete City and Lapu-Lapu City as well as in Sibulan town in Negros Oriental province.
An Intensity II tremor was felt in Maasin, Southern Leyte province, and Mambajao, Camiguin province.
Quake power
Phivolcs describes an Intensity VI quake to be very strong where some people lose their balance and motorists feel like driving on flat tires.
An Intensity VI quake can move heavy objects or furniture and can cause cracks on wall plaster, Phivolcs said. It can also cause slight damage to very old or poorly built houses and structures and trees are noticeably shaking.
Magnitude is the measurement of the energy released at the source of the earthquake while intensity quantifies the strength of shaking produced by the temblor.

Football: No waffling in support of USA v Belgium
Published on Jul 1, 2014 6:30 AM
LOS ANGELES (AFP) - Waffle House, America's best-known purveyor of the griddled breakfast goodie, is urging a boycott of Belgian waffles ahead of the United States' must-win World Cup clash with Belgium.
"We don't believe in Belgium waffles," Waffle House said on its official Twitter feed.
In fact, "Belgian" waffles aren't offered on the menu at any of the 1,700 Waffle House eateries scattered across 25 states - most of them in the South where their distinctive yellow signs are familiar roadside sights.
Waffle House spokesman Meghan Irwin told Today.com that the restaurant chain just wanted to have a little fun with that fact and show support for the United States as they battle Belgium for a quarter-final berth in the World Cup in Brazil on Tuesday.

2000 Isuzu Trooper Problems
Lack of oil changes can cause the piston rings to become clogged with debris resulting in excess oil consumption. Severe engine damage may result if the oil level gets to low. Engine dis-assembly may be required to clean or replace the piston rings. Our technicians recommend proper maintenance to try and avoid this expensive repair.
A rough idle may develop which may or may not cause the Check Engine Light to come on. This issue is commonly caused by a failed intake manifold gasket which will require replacement.
The fuel level sensor may fail causing erratic operation of the fuel gauge. Our technicians tell us that replacement of the failed sensor is necessary to correct this concern.
2000 Isuzu Trooper Questions
I was told the timing chain broke it is a 4 wheel drive. And someone told me it had 3 chains for timing. When i call for the parts im told its 1 big timing belt and there is only 1. I need to know if this is true or not. Thank you.

Nissan has built a Batman-themed Juke
To celebrate the release of the new DVD, Nissan is giving away a one-off car. And asked us to help…
Posted: 30 Nov 2012
Darryl's team have also detailed the Juke's 18-inch Nismo alloys to give them a unique look. They've painted the edges red in order to trick your eyes into thinking their bigger and even better, if you curb them, they'll leave a mark on the pavement that'll look like blood of one of Batman's last victims (OK, we made that last bit up).
