The unique client-server architecture of Mobile Grid Client keeps you connected to the grid all the time, even when your phone is in standby and keeps the traffic low.
Traditional Second Life viewers generate massive data and therefore have a big impact on your phone's battery and data plan. Mobile Grid Client only uses a fraction of that and so doesn't rely on fast network connections or carrying your power adapter with you.

After then you have to PAY A MONTHLY FEE (starting at L$250) for usage. The fee is NOT recurring and Mobile Grid Client will always ask you before charging your account.
Mobile Grid Client is not an official Second Life viewer/client from Linden Lab and is not provided or supported by Linden Lab, the makers of Second Life.

Hi Raw Food Friends, Come and join me to learn the benefits of the raw food lifestyle with Kundalini Yoga! I lead a high raw lifestyle and will also speak about foods that can help your yoga practice and chakras! I am looking forward to see you! Namaste! Love and Light! Alix :-)
Chakra literally means 'wheel,' and, in the context of yoga, is better translated as 'vortex of energy.' The word Kundalini refers to this energy, which lies trapped in these vortices in its dormant form. Kundalini Yoga uses a combination of asana, pranayama, mudra, bandha, and meditation to awaken these energies and to liberate them into their dynamic form. The 10 week long Kundalini I syllabus will introduce aspirants to the chakras and techniques that will lay the foundation for more advanced practices.
Is this class for me? If you already have a harmonious relationship with your body, mind and spirit and are ready to expand your human experience, then come and try a no-obligation first session.
Price: 1 class of 90mins for 15 chf (members)/25 chf (non-members)
Time & Place (English): Sundays at 10h - 11h30 at Holmes Place (Studio 2), from October 14 until December 16, 2012.

Hotel was very clean and well presented with charming decoration. Host was friendly and helpful - especially if you try to speak Spanish. Breakfast is limited to just 1 cup of coffee and toast but when considering the price this is fair. Short walk to the beach/restaurants. We would revisit.

The Resilience Hub & Portland Maine Permaculture Message Board › How to Have a Bee-Friendly Yard
|Jesse S.
user 29709632
Harrison, ME
Last couple years I've focused on pollinator habitat in my plantings and observing the insects preferences. One of the simplest things that's been successful for me has been to let strips of field and orchard rows just 'be'-not mow-and the goldenrods and asters that bloom in those sections get plenty of attention in the late summer and fall. Those overgrown areas also provide nesting spots for overwintering. It was amazing to see how many wasps were clamoring over the asters on warm fall days. Viburnums, dogwoods, meadowsweet, willows are shrubs that are quite popular. Buckwheat is a great summer cover crop that really hums, and comes into bloom quickly after sowing. This year's plantings for the bees includes various amelanchiers, cornus mas, button bush, mountain mint, anise hyssop, korean licorice mint, clovers and other perennial herbs. Now I need a bee pond!

Thanks for resurrecting this thread. I was thrown off a bit by the dates of the posts at the beginning of the thread and seeing dear sweet Winnie's name. She passed away this past year and was a true friend of all the pollinators.

Has anyone successfully stopped this? My daughter has sucked her first 2 fingers on her right hand since she was 4 months old. I really have not cared until recently, but she has a boo boo on her pointer finger she sucks on and because it is in her mouth every time she gets tired, it is not healing.

I was a thumb sucker until I was 5, I started at 2 though. My mom used that stuff that makes your finger taste bad and that is how I stopped. Even though that was almost 30 years ago I think they still make that type of stuff. Has anyone used it? Or what else have you used and been successful with? TIA

I thought Ira would never talk. Then the week I had him scheduled to see an audiologist to get his hearing checked, lo and behold he starts yammering away. But his terminology can be hilarious. Like

Nodis- Thomas the train

Peetey-putter- peanut butter

Toppy- happy

Ornch-peel - a peeled orange.

Wheeket- secret

He really loves telling wheekets to us. They usually involve him wanting daddy's ipad. So what's some of your little people's adaptations to words that make you smile?

 We are no where near potty trained and he will be 3 soon! I have tried EVERYTHING. He absolutely refuses to go use the potty. He use to go first thing in the morning, but as of the last month he screams, cries, and refuses to use the bathroom. No incentive works. NONE. I have thrown in the towel 3 times, wiped the slate clean, and started again. We are just not making any progress. His Pre-K program starts this year, and if he isn't potty trained, he can't go.

 I'm really just looking to see if anyone out there is in the same boat. I've heard every trick/hint/reward there is.

Anyone experience anything like this? My daughter who will be three in July woke up on May 22 with severe vomiting every five minutes and severe diarrhea at the same time. Then, 3 hours later she was done vomiting and done with the diarrhea and was laughing, playing, eating, and act as if nothing happened. Then on May 31st, the same exact thing! She woke up vomiting and diarrhea for about three hours and then was perfectly fine! Then on June 5th she wakes up with the same! After three hours she was fine! So I took her to the children's hospital and all her blood work came back perfect and her abdominal X-ray was perfect and still we are still waiting on the results from the stool samples. But doctor had mentioned it's very similar to cyclic vomiting syndrome except it's usually not with kids as young as her, usually they are 5 and older. And with cyclic vomiting syndrome the "well" period between vomiting cycles is longer, like they will have a vomiting episode once a month instead of once a week like she's doing. But everything else about it matches her symptoms perfect. And right now they are saying it probably isn't cyclic vomiting syndrome since the episodes are more frequent. I just don't know what else it would be? I'm also worried it could be a brain tumor. I know vomiting is a sign of a brain tumor but not sure about cyclic vomiting like this? Anyone have any ideas about any of this? There's been nothing new with her diet or any exposure to anything new! I'm getting desperate here and i am trying to find out whatever I can before her doc appt next week! Tia!

I don't have the time for this as I am alone during the day with 3 kids (babes are 11 weeks) I have tried bathroom charts, treats and positive praise and this is just stressing me out and not to mention it's disgusting having a full poopy toddler diaper to deal with every day..Any advice? I just can't give him attention every single second, especially while I am nursing the babes.

Literacy Is the Foundation of Education, Work, and Civic Life
Ask Your Senator to Vote NO on the Cassidy Title II #2 AmendmentSenator Cassidy (R-LA) has introduced a problematic amendment to the bi-partisan bill to authorize the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). This bill is being debated in committee RIGHT NOW. This amendment would eliminate a comprehensive literacy education act that is based on language NCTE and its allies wrote. Instead, Cassidy's amendment would only allow use of funds for students with dyslexia instead of for all students. All the major literacy organizations, including the International Dyslexia Association, oppose Cassidy's amendment. Serving students with dyslexia is of paramount importance, but experts agree that the best way to do so is through excellent literacy education for all students.NCTE is poised to score a major victory in the Senate on behalf of all of America's children. Should the legislation we and our colleagues proposed go through it would fund literacy instruction in all grade levels and across all subjects based on principles grounded in NCTE members' research and experience. Help save this part of the bill.The Senate Health Education and Labor and Pensions (HELP) committee will vote on the amendments TODAY. RIGHT NOW, please ask your Senator to vote NO on the Cassidy Title II #2 amendment.
Status Update: ESEA Reauthorization and NCTE's Recommendations
4/9/15: Over the last five months, NCTE staff and members have pushed aggressively for improvements in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA, a.k.a. No Child Left Behind). On Advocacy Day in early March, NCTE offered three recommendations to policymakers that, together, define our priorities for ESEA reauthorization. On April 7th, the Senate's Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee released a bipartisan reauthorization bill that will be marked up in committee next week. It is certainly a compromise, but it contains numerous improvements over the Republican draft bill released prior to hearings in January and February. Here are some of NCTE's key recommendations and how they compare to the bipartisan bill.
Tell Congress That Literacy Should Be a Priority in Federal Support for Education
Your Letter Will Make a Difference
Educating legislative staff and members of Congress is important work and you can make a difference!
Fellow educators, we have the opportunity to make sure our priorities are included in the revised Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). As Congress negotiates the language of the new law, also known as No Child Left Behind (ESEA/NCLB), you can make a difference by writing your representatives today. Persuade Congress that literacy is the foundation of education, work, and civic life -- it should be a priority in federal support for education.
Using our easy-to-use template, send a letter to your members of Congress: tell them that our students deserve (1) comprehensive literacy education programs; (2) equitable learning opportunities; and (3) assessments that enhance learning. Ask Congress to include the following:
You Might Want to Also Phone and Tweet Your Message:
Phone: Call your legislators with the messages on each of the topics listed above: Contact the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121, give your zip code, and the operator will connect you to your legislator's office (you will need to repeat this to contact all three of your legislators). Please leave the message above. You can do this 24 hours a day and leave a voice mail if necessary.
Tweet: Send your legislators messages on each of the topics listed above: Search Twitter for your Senators and Representatives, then send your tweets; be sure to include your city and state so they know you are a constituent.

Search and recovery divers were pretty much on their own back in the early 1980's; I know because I was one of them. I spent 10 years on the Dallas Fire Department's dive team and worked from the department's drag boats before the dive team came to be. Fireman Thad Moore, owner of a SCUBA shop in Dallas, thought we could do better for the families of drowning victims than recovering them with drag hooks. He developed a search and recovery class for SCUBA divers, canvassed the department for volunteers and the Dallas Fire Department's SCUBA Search & Rescue team was born.

I have deeply loved many horses in my life. There is something so heart warming about the connection between a horse and rider and I wanted to convey that feeling with a piece of art. "Pals" was the result. With the use of complimentary colors, mixed visual textures and content that tugs at the heartstrings, I captured a tender moment between a weathered, old cowboy and his velvety mount. Regardless who views this piece, the reaction is always the same...a smile.
I am offering this piece as a superior quality, limited edition print (150) on Signature Luster Fine Art paper. These are all hand signed and come with a certificate of authenticity by the master printer. If you are interested in purchasing one, please contact me: at email@example.com

A four-way ball type valve including a spherical valve element operable to as many as four positions and which can be installed on a railway car in place of the branch pipe tee to eliminate the need for an angle cock at each end of the brake pipe and a brake control valve cut-out cock. The ball valve is functionally analogous to a rotary valve in cutting off the brake pipe at either end of the car without interrupting the brake control valve connection with the brake pipe, or in cutting out the brake control valve while establishing brake pipe continuity through the train.
1. A four-way ball type valve device for selectively controlling communication between two or more ports formed therein, said valve device comprising:
(a) a casing having at least three ports connectable to respective pipes;
(b) a ball-shaped valve member having a first passageway extending diametrically therethrough and a branch passageway normal to and intersecting said first passageway, said valve member being rotatably disposed in said casing and selectively operable to a plurality of positions in each of which positions fluid pressure is communicated between two or more of said ports via said passageways in said valve member; and
(c) a sealing element sealingly disposed between said casing and said valve member and having at least three openings therein registering with said ports in the casing, said sealing element having an inner surface contour complementing the outer surface of the ball-shaped valve member and providing sufficient clearance therebetween for permitting snug rotating action of the valve member therein and sufficient displacement thereof, responsively to fluid pressure in said passageways, for applying sealing pressure of the valve member against the cut-off port when only two of said ports are in communication with each other.
2. A four-way ball type valve device, as set forth in claim 1, wherein said valve member is operable: (a) to a first position in which three of the ports are communicated with each other; (b) to a second position in which a first and second port are communicated with each other and the third port is cut off; (c) to a third position in which said first and third ports are communicated with each other and the second port is cut off; and (d) to a fourth position in which said second and third ports are communicated with each other and said first port is cut off.
3. A four-way ball type valve device, as set forth in claim 2, further characterized by manually operable handles operably disposed on opposite sides of the valve device for effecting operation of said valve member to its several positions, each of said handles being operable independently of the other.
The arrangement of shut-off valve devices on the brake pipe of a freight car normally includes an angle cock at the end of the car to open or close brake pipe communication between adjacent cars, and a cut-out cock interposed in a branch pipe leading to a brake control valve on the car and connected by a tee to the brake pipe, and cut-out cock serving to either open or cut out communication between the brake pipe and the brake control valve. It would be desirable to provide a single valve unit capable of performing the combined functions of the angle cock and cut-out cock.
In considering a possible valve device for accomplishing the object above noted, the concept of a four-way valve would serve the purpose, but the question remains as to which type of valve device, for example, spool, diaphragm, poppet, or ball, would best serve the purpose.
The spool type four-way valve is found objectionable because of restricted air flow capacity due to angled flow paths. To obtain sufficient flow capacity, the size of the valve device would have to be quite large and, therefore, impractical. Since the O-rings would have to be proportionately large, they would be susceptible to being blown out or dislodged from their grooves.
A diaphragm type valve device would entail undue complexities including three separate diaphragm covers, and because of the porting arrangement, would also result in poor flow capacity. Again, the flow capacity requirements would necessitate use of large diaphragms and, therefore, result in a larger than practical device.
The poppet type valve device would also be complex, characterized by poor air flow and having the same disadvantages as the diaphragm type construction. In addition, this type is susceptible to having foreign objects becoming lodged between the poppet valve seal and seat to cause undesirable leakage.
The object of the present invention, therefore, is to provide a four-way valve device characterized by uninterrupted and unrestricted air flow capacity and comprising a compact unit adaptable for replacing both the angle cock and cut-out cocks both structurally and functionally.
The invention comprises a ball and seal type valve device in which the ball element is operable to four positions by conventional keys from both sides of the car. The device may be installed in the brake pipe in place of the branch pipe tee to eliminate the need for an angle cock at the each end of the brake pipe and a control valve cut-out cock. The valve device is selectively operable to one of the four positions for (a) maintaining communication between both ends of the brake pipe and with the brake control valve, (b) cutting off one end of the brake pipe without interrupting the connection of the brake control valve, (c) cutting off the other end of the brake pipe without interrupting the connection of the brake control valve, or (d) cutting off connection with the brake control valve while maintaining continuity between the two ends of the brake pipe. The four-way valve device herein proposed is designed to use the floating ball principle, that is, in each of the four positions, the air pressure will always be working to seal the port connection closed off.
FIG. 1A is a schematic view, partly in section, showing a four-way ball type valve device embodying the invention and in its installed position relative to a brake pipe and a brake control valve device of a railway car;
FIGS. 1B, 1C, and 1D, all in section, show the respective additional positions to which the four-way ball valve shown in FIG. 1A is operable;
FIG. 2 is a plan view, in section and on a larger scale, of the four-way ball valve shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D, taken along line II--II of FIG. 3 looking in the direction indicated by the arrows;
FIG. 3 is an end view, in section and on the same scale as FIG. 2, of the four-way ball valve shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, and 2, taken along line III--III of FIG. 2 looking in the direction indicated by the arrows;
FIG. 4, is a sectional view, on a larger scale than FIG. 1A but smaller than FIGS. 2 and 3, of the four-way ball valve shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 2, and 3, showing the action of pressure therein; and
FIG. 5 is a schematic view of prior art showing the conventional arrangement of angle cocks and cut-out cock in a brake pipe and branch pipe, respectively, of a railway car.
FIG. 5, labeled PRIOR ART, schematically illustrates a conventional arrangement of angle cocks 1 and 2 mounted at opposite ends of railway car brake pipe 3 for controlling communication between brake pipes (not shown) on respective adjacent cars. A cut-out cock 4 is interposed in a branch pipe 5 connected at one end to brake pipe 3 by a pipe tee 6 and at the other end to a brake control valve device 7 (see FIG. 1A), said cut-out cock either communicating said control valve device with the brake pipe or cutting off communication therewith.
According to the invention and as shown in FIG. 1A, tee 6 in brake pipe 3 is replaced by a four-way ball type valve device 8, which is shown in detail in FIGS. 2 and 3. For purposes of convenience, ball valve device 8 is shown in FIG. 2 in a position rotated 90� from its normally installed position in brake pipe 3 and about the axis of said brake pipe.
Ball valve device 8, as seen in FIGS. 2 and 3, comprises a casing 9 in which a ball or spherically shaped valve member 10 is rotatable about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the brake pipe 3 or axis of the car (not shown) and indicated by the reference numeral 11. Valve member 10 is provided with diametrically oppositely disposed slots 12 and 13, each of which receives respective key portions 14 and 15 of a manually operable member comprising a pair of handles 16 and 17 extending parallel to the axis of the car and by which the valve device may be operated to several positions from either side of the car. See FIG. 3.
Ball valve member 10 is provided with a passageway 18 extending diametrically therethrough and a branch passageway 19 normal to and intersecting said passageway 18 (see FIGS. 1A, 1B, 1C and 1D).
Casing 9 is provided with three ports 20, 21, and 22, opposite ends of brake pipe 3 being connected to ports 20 and 21, while branch pipe 5 is connected to port 22, as shown in FIG. 1A. Ball valve member 10 is selectively operable, by one or the other of handles 16 and 17 to one of four positions shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D and indicated in said views as positions A, B, C, and D, respectively. In position A of valve member 10, both ends of brake pipe 3 are connected to each other and to control valve device 7 via branch pipe 5; in position B, the left end of the brake pipe, as viewed in the drawing, is cut off while the right end is communicated with the control valve device; in position C, the right end of the brake pipe is cut off while the left end is communicated with the control valve device; and in position D, the two ends of the brake pipe are in communication and the control valve device is cut off.
The ball-shaped valve member 10 is sealingly disposed within a sealing element 23 disposed between said valve member and casing 9, said sealing element being made of a sealing material such as hard rubber, for example, and having an inner surface conforming to the spherical outer surface of said ball-shaped valve member. Sealing element 23 is provided with openings 24, 25, and 26 registering with ports 20, 21, and 22, respectively, of casing 9 to permit air flow therethrough when one or the other or both of passageways 18 or 19 are in such position as to be aligned with one or more of said openings.
The arrangement of ball valve member 10 within sealing element 23 utilizes a floating ball principle, that is, sufficient clearance is provided between the valve member and the sealing element to permit rotation of the valve member and to cause the valve member to be pressured by air pressure within the valve against the port or ports being cut off. For example, see FIG. 4 wherein the pressure in passageway 18 acts in the direction indicated by the plurality of arrows P to press valve member 10 tightly against sealing element 23 for effectively sealing off port 21 which is being cut off.

Portable credit card terminals used in fraud
In what is the latest financial fraud, crooks are using distraction techniques to replace merchants' machines with their own, police say.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
When you pay a restaurant bill at your table using a point-of-sale machine, are you sure it's legit?
In the past three months, Toronto and Peel police have discovered many that aren't.
In what is the latest financial fraud, crooks are using distraction techniques to replace merchants' machines with their own, police say.
At the end of the day, they create another distraction to pull the switch again.
Using information inputted by customers, including PIN data, the criminals are reproducing credit cards at an alarming rate.
Merchants must be wary this is going on and train their staff, police told reporters Thursday.
One way to tell if a machine is fraudulent is if a credit card can be pushed in so far that you can't easily put your thumb on the end of it.
That might indicate the machine is reading the card's magnetic stripe and recording your data.
"The only data that is capable of being compromised to our knowledge is the data associated to magnetic strips," said Det. Ian Nichol. "The industry is taking steps to minimize this."
At some point, all point-of-sale terminals will be switched over to accept only chip cards, police say.
Transactions at many smaller retail locations still use only magnetic stripe technology.
Nichol advises retailers to check their terminals at the beginning, middle and end of a shift and ensure the number on the machine is the same.
The crime has turned up in Toronto, Peel and Montreal, police say.
A few weeks ago, a store owner in a Toronto food court alerted police to suspicious activity with his point-of-sale machine.
The Financial Crimes Unit conducted surveillance and arrested a man in the act, police say.
Staff Insp. Bryce Evans, with the Financial Crimes Unit, said he believes money gained from financial crime is likely going to terrorist or other criminal organizations outside the country.
In many such cases, he said, arrests are made in scrubby houses or apartments, not the luxurious homes of people expected to be profiting alone from the crime.
Although perceived as a victimless crime because the banks are on the hook for losses, police argue this fraud costs everyone because financial institutions must spend money on high security.
In another disturbing trend, police say financial crime has now surpassed drugs in value as the leading crime in Canada.
Evans said a recent survey found people are more concerned about financial crime than any other.

Restaurants in Arizona
No doubt, restaurants in Arizona offer plenty of good places to eat quality Southwestern and Mexican-influenced cuisine—whether that means cowboy-friendly steaks or grilled cactus that fills tacos, top salads, or is eaten as an appetizer. One not-so-gourmet—but beloved—Arizona restaurant staple is the Sonoran hot dog, where the frank is wrapped in bacon then topped with beans, onions, salsa, and peppers. But especially in the cities such as Sedona, Scottsdale and Tucson, you'll also find a pretty international selection, and some of the best restaurants in Arizona. The Steak Out Restaurant and Saloon's frontier-inspired design and weathered-wood exterior brings the Old West to life in this Tucson restaurant. Great mesquite-grilled steaks, ribs, chicken, and fish, washed down with margaritas to the twang of country music.
Not many people come to the desert for great pizza, but Pizzeria Blanco's brick oven in Phoenix regularly makes the lists of the best gourmet pizza in the U.S. Be prepared to wait in line. Helmed by French-trained chef Vincent Guerithault, Vincent on Camelback is a longtime favorite in the Phoenix area is an excellent choice for classically informed Mexican fare, such as the rich, spicy duck tamales with Anaheim chile and raisins, or grilled wild boar loin in a habanero sauce. René at Tlaquepaque has French-meets-cowboy-cuisine in Sedona's toney shopping plaza and is known for its rack of lamb, escargot and antelope carpaccio.
There aren't many frills as this wood-bedecked café, but it's got a fireplace and serves all sorts of comfort food: biscuits and gravy, homemade soups, and all sorts of cobblers (try the peach, apple, or blackberry).
Sample a burrito filled with carne seca (air-dried beef) at this original location.
John Wayne ate here, so a meal is obligatory for all True Grit fans. Keep in mind: real cowboys order steak. And don't let the kitschy steer on the roof put you off.
At this popular Mexican eatery, an expansive banquet hall adjoins an equally cavernous dining room. Vibrantly colored sails hang high above to absorb some of the mariachi music reverberating off the tiled floor—creating a festive and raucous atmosphere.
The restaurant serves hefty southwestern food.
Mrs. White may not consider herself a gourmet cook, but patrons of her Phoenix restaurant come for gourmet of a different sort. One of the state's longest operating African American-owned businesses, her Golden Rule Café has been serving down-home soul food for more than 40 years.
The kitchen churns out authentic Mexican dishes like carne asada tacos, tangy ceviche, and creamy fresh horchata (an addictively sweet rice drink).
This Pie Town establishment sells butterscotch, dutch apple crumb, New Mexico apple, cherry, peach, blueberry, (and on weekends:) banana cream, coconut cream, and chocolate pies. Though pies are the obvious specialty, try the green-chile stew before ordering a hearty dessert.
Development has gobbled up most of the old farmland in town, but not this tree-lined, 12-acre oasis, where the owners give a nod to the good old days by raising everything from turkeys to salad greens.
Located in the open-air garden of Biltmore Fashion Park in Phoenix, True Food Kitchen serves "globally inspired cuisine" with an emphasis on freshness, health and flavor. True Food is a certified green restaurant where dishes are made with locally grown produce, and the menus are based on Dr.
