STARZ Original Series POWER Finishes Strong in Ratings
Starz Original Series and summer breakout hit "Power," finished strong in its season finale and has averaged about 4 million viewers per week to-date, with strong viewership among White and African-American viewers - both male and female audiences (18-49).* The New York-based drama, which has resonated strongly with African-American viewers throughout its eight-episode first season and stars Omari Hardwick, will premiere to more than 10 million new households on ENCORE BLACK beginning Tuesday, August 12 at 10 pm ET/PT with a replay immediately following at 11 pm ET/PT.** "Power" will premiere one episode per week on Tuesdays at 10 pm ET/PT for eight weeks on ENCORE BLACK through September 30. Additional replays will air on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. "Power" episodes will also be made available weekly on ENCORE PLAY.
Viewership for "Power" grew throughout the strong first season. The finale's 9PM results (2.9 HH rating and nearly 1.1 million viewers Live+SD) more than doubled the series premiere results (1.3 HH, 462K Live+SD), as the series became "appointment viewing" for its ever-increasing core audience.***
"Power's" final weekend was also the best to-date. Nearly 2.5 million viewers watched the "Power" season finale over the weekend on Starz (up more than 20% from the premiere weekend). In fact, "Power's" final weekend outpaced all recent Starz finale weekends since "Spartacus: War of The Damned." ***
The freshman season of "Power" generated the largest concentration (71%) of African-American viewers of any scripted premium series since 2006.**** Furthermore, only HBO's "Game Of Thrones" and "True Blood" drew larger numbers of African-American viewers of any premium series currently running compared to "Power" on STARZ.*****
With new episode weekend viewership growing throughout the season, "Power" is averaging about 4 million viewers per episode across all platforms including Starz linear, Starz ON DEMAND and Starz PLAY.
About "Power"
"Power" tells the story of a visionary crime drama set in two different worlds, the glamorous New York club scene and the brutal drug trade.
James "Ghost" St. Patrick has it all: a beautiful wife, a gorgeous Manhattan penthouse, and the hottest, up-and-coming new nightclub in New York. His club, Truth, caters to the elite: the famous and Infamous boldface names that run the city that never sleeps. As its success grows, so do Ghost's plans to build an empire. However, Truth hides an ugly reality. It's a front for Ghost's criminal underworld; a lucrative drug network, serving only the wealthy and powerful.
As Ghost is seduced by the prospect of a legitimate life, everything precious to him becomes unknowingly threatened. Once you're in, can you ever get out?
The "Power" cast is led by Omari Hardwick (Sparkle, For Colored Girls, Kick Ass, "Being Mary Jane"), Lela Loren (Snitch, "Gang Related"), Naturi Naughton (Fame, "The Client List," "Mad Men"), and Joseph Sikora (Jack Reacher, Safe, "Boardwalk Empire"). Hardwick stars as main character 'James "Ghost" St. Patrick'; Loren plays 'Angela Valdes', an old flame of James's who unexpectedly reenters his life; Naughton will play 'Tasha St. Patrick', wife, confidant and willing accomplice to James and Sikora plays 'Tommy Egan', childhood best friend and business partner to "Ghost."
"Power" was created by Courtney Kemp Agboh (Emmy® nominated for "The Good Wife"), who serves as executive producer and showrunner. Mark Canton (300, Immortals, 300: Rise of an Empire), Randall Emmett (End of Watch, 2 Guns, Lone Survivor) and David Knoller ("Big Love," "Carnivàle") also serve as executive producers. The series is produced in association with CBS Television Studios.
"Power" premiered on Starz with an eight hour-long episode first season and has been renewed for a second season.

Cardinal bank's parent posts positive numbers
Yadkin Valley Financial Corp. (Nasdaq: YAVY), which owns Durham-based Cardinal State Bank, says it will resume paying divdiends to the federal government for the money it received under the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP, after putting up positive numbers in recent quarters.
The $1.9 billion total asset lender posted a profit of nearly $15 million for the six months ending June 30, according to FDIC. Also, the number of loans that are not being repaid declined by 7 percent.
Yadkin had suspended the payments in June 2011 to conserve capital.
Bizspace Spotlight
""As of today, we are current on all dividend payments to Treasury and interest payments on our trust preferred securities," says CEO Joe Towell. "This is truly a sign of strength for our company and a tangible vote of confidence from our regulators."
Yadkin Valley acquired Cardinal in March 2008 and operates three offices under the Cardinal brand, two in Durham and one in Hillsborough.

Top Ten Kirby BossesJune 28, 2015 - Don't agree with the list? Vote for an existing item you think should be ranked higher or if you are a logged in, add a new item for others to vote on or create your own version of this list.
The Top Ten
1Phan Phan
The cutest boss of the Kirby series. How could you not love this little elephant-like mid-boss. First appearing in Kirby Super Star, and giving the Throw ability, in the remake, Kirby Super Star Ultra, when he was defeated, he would give the Suplex ability, one of the best abilities in that game. In the Kirby: Right Back at Ya! Anime, which I used to watch as a child, he appeared in one of my favorite episodes of all time, The Cowardly Creature, my favorite being the Japanese-only release of episode 95, the one with the Devil Frog.
2Magolor Soul 2
I love this World Boss. He first appeared in Kirby Mass Attack, probably my favorite Kirby game ever! His battle was unique. You had to first get into the Volcano containing him, then hit him on the head. It was a complicated one, but I finally defeated him, although it took over 10 minutes on my first try.
5Crazy Hand
6Galacta Knight
All I Can Say Is HOLY CRAP HE IS awesome Like His Battle Theme, But He Is VERY DIFFICULT TO BEAT FOR BEGINNERS That's How Difficult He Is But His Battle is Very Well Made.
7Heavy Lobster
I don't have much to say about Heavy Lobster except that he was an awesome boss. He was easy to defeat, and he only appeared once in the anime (in the movie), and he was difficult for Kirby and Meta Knight to defeat on the Halberd. He could be one-shot with the paint ability, which he gave with his paint blob attack.
8Metal General
Metal General was the boss of Egg Engines, the sixth world in Kirby's Return to Dreamland (my second-favorite release of Kirby). He was an awesome boss, with lots of powers, and he took time to defeat. I guess I am just one of those people who enjoy tough bosses.
I love 0²! The best Kirby boss in my opinion! Not to mention his epic theme! I was surprised at how gruesome and creepy he was especially because he CRIES BLOOD! Also, his theme was put into SSBB one of my favorite games of all time so obviously someone listened to that theme just as much as me! So overall most epic, and mature, boss in my opinion
10Dyna Blade
Dyna Blade is a boss from Kirby Super Star who is comparable to Kangaskhan, if you have ever played Pokemon. It's a very protective mother of the Dyna Chicks in the anime, and in the games, it attacks you because it feels that you are trying to harm its children. I feel this is a very commendable feature in a mother, and I understand that it loves its children very much.

The Contenders
11Miracle Matter
12Drawcia Soul
I was never able to defeat this boss in the original game as a child. When the 20th anniversary collection came out, I finally beat Pix, the strange geometric boss. It doesn't have much of a personality, but I feel it was the most challenging boss I have ever battled in the Kirby series, and it also made me experience my very first rage quit as a gamer.
14Marx Soul
Yeah he is OP and hardest boss, awesome boss
15Grand Doomer
16Coily Rattler
This was one of the more challenging bosses in Triple Deluxe, and it was a fun experience when I battled this boss. I died only once battling this boss, but I experienced him a little late, as I did not buy the game until only this month, March of 2015.
17Masked Dedede
It's Dedede, with a mask.

Complaint: I had my truck towed in through my AAA insurance on April 10th, 2014 to be serviced because my steering became unsafe. The steering wheel would intermittently pull left and right viciously at any speed and after taking a sharp turn. But after receiving my truck back for the first of THREE times on April 17th, 2014 from being supposedly fixed I almost crashed into a guardrail going 65mph on route nine coming home from school. After a near death experience, replacing many parts totaling up an outrages bill of $2,513.71 and using now two of my three free tows from my AAA insurance I am thoroughly disappointed with their customer service which of whom the leading technician called me a liar, stating that the vehicle is "safe" enough to be driven back to the shop which consequently could have taken my life. I am also disappointed that these professionals could not diagnose the problem correctly and the fact that I am without a vehicle for multiple weeks and having to pay a friend to borrow their car due to the fact that they will not give me a loaner car nor any of my family members. All in all I am very disappointed and I will never go back to Hammonassett Ford after this repair because it has been nothing but a hassle in their ability to repair a vehicle safely.
Desired Settlement: My truck was not fixed correctly the first time therefore I would like compensation for the money I had to pay to drive a loaned car. Along with a refund of the money that it would have cost me to tow the car from my AAA free tow, as I only have a limited amount of free tows each year. Also I would like my truck fixed at Hammonssett Fords expense because they diagnosed the problem wrong to begin with, and $2,513.71 should have been enough to correct the issue.
Business Response: To whom it may concern, I am responding to an open BBB case id# 1*******. ******* ***** grandson of our very good customer ****** ***** had his vehicle towed to our facility on 04/10/2014. We then proceeded to diagnosis his concern, he stated that when driving his vehicle it will pull hard left and right but worse after 35 mph and up. We road tested the vehicle and it did not act as the customer stated. However we did inspect the vehicle and found an excessive amount of play in the steering box and right front outer tie rod end. This vehicle has 137124 miles on it so this would not be uncommon. The customer authorized those repairs totaling $1730.28. We performed those repairs and road tested the vehicle and found the vehicle operating as designed. The customer then paid the bill and picked up the vehicle on April 17th 1 week later. The very next day I got a call from ******* and ****** very upset stating the vehicle did it again. I opened an additional repair order that day and advised to have the vehicle brought back. ******* had the vehicle towed back in as he felt it was unsafe to be driven. At this time the vehicle had not acted in the manner to which they described. The customer asked about a loaner vehicle due to his age he would not qualify, however I did offer one to either his father or grandfather and they could let him use their vehicle, that was not acceptable. We then proceeded to test drive the car several times. We were still unable to confirm the concern. I ended up driving it home myself and only after aggressive driving on both the highway and back roads did the truck act abnormally for me. The next morning my lead tech and I inspected the vehicle and found the right front axle u joint binding at times. I contacted the customer and advised that we will be replacing both left and right axle u joints. At this time customer was very happy that we were repairing his vehicle at no charge. I then road test the customer's vehicle myself again and found it to be operating correctly. During the second repair we put 191 miles on the vehicle in order to confirm the customer concern. It was a concern that did not happened every time the vehicle was driven. After receiving the BBB complaint from my General Manager I then contacted the customer. He advised that he posted this claim before we repaired his vehicle the second time and it very satisfied with our service. He would like to remove this complaint but does not know how. If he could be contacted again he would like to close out this complaint due to the fact that he is satisfied with our handling of the situation. ******* ********r Service Manager Hammonasset Ford, Inc. ###-###-#### ###-###-#### Fax

Complaint: Sold me a used vehicle with a bad transmission. Refuses to replace transmission. A used 2003 **** Explorer was purchased. After a few weeks of driving, it was determined that the transmission is no longer good and needs a full replacement. The used car sales manager refuses to replace the transmission and only offered a small amount towards the repair, leaving a huge burden on me to pay for the rest of the cost.
Desired Settlement: I want the transmission fully replaced at no cost to me. It is not fair to me as the consumer to have to take the brunt of this situation.
Business Response: Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2013/05/31) */ Mr. ***** purchased a 2003 Ford Explorer "As-Is" from our dealership. Mr. ***** signed acknowledging that the vehicle was "As is" in several spots thoughout the paperwork. He also declined to purchase an extended service contract. We always encourage our customers to purchase extended service contracts. Unexpected Service repair bills are never anything that anyone wants to deal with. This is why we specifically have customers who do not purchase extended service contracts sign that they "declined" one when offered. ******** declined one and signed his name acknowledging that he was declining an extended service contract. We performed a safety inspection on the vehicle prior to the sale. It confirms that the vehicle was safe for the road. Based on the miles, age and price of this vehicle it was sold " As is". This means that there is not warranty. There are several areas throughout the paperwork that acknowledge that he purchased the vehicle "As-"Is. That being said. My Used car manager ***** ******* offered him $770 of customer goodwill. Again this was solely for customer goodwill. Hammonasset Ford, Inc. has no obligation to assist in the cost of any repairs to this vehicle. After ***** made his offer he stated that it was still unacceptable. I am sorry that he is having problems with the vehicle but we are not responsible for any of this. Consumer Response /* (3000, 7, 2013/06/03) */ (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT ACCEPT the response from the business.) I have made several attempts with **** ******* to resolve this matter. She is unwilling to change her view. I was willing to accept the $770. I will accept in the form of payment to me. She will not comply with that and is only offering the $770 to be used at her dealership. **** ******* is being very unreasonable with this whole situation. It is very obvious that Hammonasset Ford is not for the customer and only for themselves. Business Response /* (4000, 9, 2013/06/05) */ Unfortunately it appears that Mr. ***** is regretting purchasing an "As is" vehicle. Again, he is well aware that he purchased the vehicle "As is" as indicated by his many signatures throughout his paperwork. He also declined an extended service plan as indicated by his signature. We have tried to offer him a significant amount of customer good will funds and he is still not satisfied. Hammonasset Ford strives to keep all customers happy. Customer satisfaction is very important to us. It is sad to see a customer who regrets their purchasing decision become upset with us over it. There really is nothing more that Hammonasset Ford, Inc. can do.

Hillary Clinton Set for CBS SUNDAY MORNING, 6/15
Former First Lady and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says the question for anyone considering a run for the White House is not whether they'll run or win, but rather what they see ahead for the country, she tells Jane Pauley in an interview for CBS SUNDAY MORNING WITH CHARLES OSGOOD, to be broadcast Sunday, June 15 (9:00-10:30 AM, ET) on the CBS Television Network.
Clinton, who entered the 2008 race to be the Democratic nominee, is widely considered a contender for the 2016 race.
The questions to consider are "what is your vision for America?" Clinton tells Pauley. "And can you lead us there? And if you don't have a clear-eyed sense of what it's (going to) take to restore our strength and our fairness, our justice - and what we're (going to) do in this increasingly complex, interconnected world, you shouldn't run."
Clinton has been peppered with questions about a run for the White House while touring to promote her new book, Hard Choices, published by Simon & Schuster, a division of CBS. She talked about that experience and more with Pauley while attending a class reunion at Wellesley College.
"It's not a contest, you know, (about) who looks good, and who can have a quick answer, and all the rest, who can get the most outside money," Clinton says of the race for president. "We don't have time for that right now."
Looking back on the 2008 race, Clinton tells Pauley that she learned a deep lesson about a campaign. "Whoever runs has to recognize that the American political system is probably the most difficult, even brutal, in the world."
Clinton also talks with Pauley about her headline-making commencement speech at Wellesley College in 1969, her experiences as secretary of state, and the recent prisoner swap to get Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl back after five years in captivity.
Pauley also talks with some of Clinton's Wellesley classmates.
"My parents said to me, 'If there was ever going to be a woman president, it's (going to) be Hillary Rodham,'" Wendy Judge Paulson tells Pauley about a conversation she had in 1969.
CBS SUNDAY MORNING is broadcast Sundays (9:00-10:30 AM, ET) on the CBS Television Network. Rand Morrison is the executive producer.

Coating Materials
Under pressure from coating makers, Southern California regulators have decided—for now—not to demand something that does not yet exist.
The influential South Coast Air Quality Management District has agreed to remove two marine coatings categories from its proposed 2012 Air Quality Management Plan.
The plan had proposed further reductions in volatile organic compound (VOC) content for Marine Coatings Operations (Rule 1106) and Pleasure Craft Coatings Operations (Rule 1106.1).
The Marine Coating rule applies to all coating operations of boats, ships, and their appurtenances, and to buoys and oil drilling rigs intended for the marine environment. The Pleasure Craft rule covers coatings operations for recreational vessels.
Delay Granted ...
In detailed comments submitted Aug. 31, the American Coatings Association told the South Coast District that "further VOC reductions" in marine coating operations "are not technologically feasible."
South Coast then agreed to give those operations a one-year reprieve from further regulation, ACA reports.
Rules by the District are closely watched nationwide, as the agency is frequently a bellwether for national regulations. ACA participates actively in South Coast rulemaking activity.
... But for How Long?
Despite the reprieve on the marine coatings rules, the issue is probably not over. Marine coatings have been a major environmental concern throughout California for years.
Moreover, South Coast has pushed the envelope on its coatings demands before—and successfully so.
In June, the California Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the District could set pollution standards "based on technologies that do not currently exist, but are reasonably anticipated to exist by the compliance deadline."
That ruling capped a fierce—and ultimately futile—ACA challenge to the District's 2002 and 2003 amendments to Rule 1113, which imposed the nation's lowest VOC limits ever on Architectural and Industrial Maintenance (AIM) Coatings.
ACA (then known as the National Paint and Coatings Association) had argued that South Coast had overstepped its statutory authority to promulgate air pollution regulations, because the rule specified limits that manufacturers said were not "available" or "achievable."
But the court disagreed, saying that South Coast had the right to push polluters to develop "achievable" technology even if it was not currently available.
Other Changes
South Coast's proposed 2012 Air Quality Management Plan also includes potential future measures for limiting VOC emissions from AIM coatings.
Currently, the District is looking at a 25 g/l regulatory VOC content limit for flats/nonflats and primer, sealer, undercoaters, or an equivalent material VOC content (approximately 12 g/l material VOC limit), ACA reports.
The District is also considering amending or eliminating the small-container exemption for architectural coatings.
The District will present the plan to its Board on Nov. 2, but the agency will not amend the actual regulations for a few years, according to ACA.
Coating Makers' Concerns
ACA has submitted several rounds of comments on the draft plan and has also met with district staff to discuss further emission reductions from architectural coatings (Rule 1113). Most recently, ACA asked South Coast to remove several proposed VOC reduction control measures for coatings and solvents.
The coating makers say that general emissions from AIM coatings "have leveled off at around 12 tons per day, even though volumes are starting to increase."
ACA says it wants to "assure that appropriate inventory credit is given for the significant reductions already achieved in mass and reactivity of VOC emissions from architectural coatings, and additional reductions to come from requirements for colorants, VOC limit reductions, and thinning/cleaning solvents."
ACA also contends that reducing VOC emissions "will have no appreciable impact on ozone formation since the SCAQMD region is nitrogen oxide (NOx) limited."

I have an email account set up that triggers a python script whenever it receives an email. The script goes through several functions which can take about 30 seconds and writes an entry into a MYSQL database.
Everything runs smoothly until a second email is sent in less than 30 seconds after the first. The second email is processed correctly, but the first email creates a corrupted entry into the database.
I'm looking to hold the email data,
in a queue if the script has not finished processing the prior email.
I'm using python 2.5. Can anyone recommend a package/script that would accomplish this?

About me:
Amateur Photographer
HarrieD7000: Great, as an amateur photographer I was thinking to step up to FF. I was putting mony aside to do so, and hoping Nikon would bring an upgrade for the D800's. The upgrade is here. My money not. But at the time I have the money for a new camera, this will be tested, and on the market for a few months. If nothing negative is heard of this camera by then, I buy this one.
From what I saw today it must be a beast of a camera for an amateur like me.
Joe, you are right. I'm looking for a FF, because I love to shoot portraits. I don't think I need 36 Mp, but I think the Nikon 810 is technical the best to buy now. I already have 7 or 8 lenses, of wich 5 FF. Everyone is very happy with the pictures I shoot with my DX but I think I can play a bit more with the DOF, when using a FF.
In the back of my mind is still the Nikon DF, but the lack of a second memory card and no battery grip I really would miss.
Why placing one liners if you don't want to buy this camera?
Even my old D7000 can shoot with the SB900 and SB600 speed lights, up to 1/8000 of a second. The D7000 goes down to 100 ISO, so I could reach the same effect? And yes the X sync for external speed lights only can be done with shutters in the lens, like the phase one and Hasselblad. And even if I have to save an extra year to get this camera, for me (an amateur photographer) it is worth it's money.

Great pictures!!! Made with a thing that was not made to make photographs in the first place.
Perhaps the even put it behind glass, so everyone visiting can see the camera. I would not swap this box for my 3 year old camera gear. It has nothing to do with the brand, because I love the M3, but this is not bringing anything to make better pictures.
I thought this was a camera, but now it seems just a gadget.
And although my saying is, there is no bad picture, only a missed chance to make one (did not invent that myself) it will take much more before I replace my cameras for a thing like this.
jango: samsung nx30 or sony a6000 or olympus e-m10
which one would you buy?
in my country the prices of the three cameras are almost the same
even the lanses price are cheeper for the samsung and most exepensive for the sony
I'm convinced, if you start with a Nikon or Canon DSLR, for the same price, you have a better camera and more possibilities in the future. The quality of the pictures will be better too.
As soon as I need pictures the size of my house, I'll consider to buy this camera. Till that time comes I will stay with a normal DSLR.
I do think this is a great camera for a good price.
RPJG: Question from a dummy; what is the third-from-the-left set of numbers on the barrel?
Sorry I had not seen Silenus reply.
Johannes Zander: Canon and Nikon in one bag!
Is that legal?
Offcourse it is legal. As long as you use the Nikon to make your pictures.
My Transcend card is doing the same for less money. I even use a 16 GB card I bought for 40 dollar one year ago. It to is class 10 and does RAW. The apps on phonE and tablet are free and very easy to use.
Now I know for sure. My next camera will be the D800 and although this was made with the 24-120 I'll take the 85 mm too.
What a pictures. Wow!!!!!!
I'm very interested in prime lenses, but this one will not be on my wish list.
All the "new" things Eye-Fi is introducing recently, are in my "old" Transcend 16 GB WiFi card. Class 10, and costing half as much. I even can send over RAW with that card. What is the fuss about this card. Just a nice gadget when you want to travel light. But not for serious and quick work.
Again an android gadget everyone wants and nobody uses because of the poor quality?
Like most android gadgets this will be shown the first week after it is bought and then life a life in a cupboard.
After Reading this preview for the second time in 24 hours I'm still not convinced this could be my next camera. I was very happy with the 16 Mp, because this will well perform in low light. The small grip, the lack of an (additional) battery grip. And the rumor it has no AF fine tune, are a big issue to me. I do have some AI lenses and I needed to fine tune them in my. So I could not use them to full quality. Loving to shoot lots of portrait pictures I need to grow another wrist, or buy a D800. I still have to save a part of the money, for a new camera, so I can wait to see if the reviews of the 610 or the f can change my mind.
jyesheen: Hi,
As a legacy Nikon Owner, it hurt. I got D600 on 2012-Dec with high price. and after that, the price falling down.
While I am curious of why D600 price sliding-down so fast, and seeing this new +10 Model. The feeling is bad.
It is only one year. Nikon's way of marketing this D600/D610 is really negative to his image on assured high quality and hurt the customer loyalty like me who purchase D600 with high price.
D600 is my first full frame DSLR, and I quite happy with this Body.
What I learn is not to purchasing new 3C product within the first 6/12 Month after launch.
Hope Nikon can learn from this D600 issue and do be a High-End Camera Manufacture who persist on quality and can be trust on price and quality.
Of your D600 has no shutter issue, you still have a great camera, I would like to have, but still can't afford.
So much fuzz for these crappy pictures? I use a phone to make my calls and a camera to make pictures. These "tests" look to me as a cheap kind of advertisement.
It is a pity DPR can't make more articles with real camera's.
Apple never asked a costumer what they should put in a phone. It is still the most sold phone when looking for the model. And that is for each and every model from Apple. I don't think an other camera will change that. And within one month we can see what the new iPhone does in sales figures. We can see if there is an other phone model with all the called specs, that even comes close to this figures.

29 mpg..and yes I have tested it with and without and there is consistantly 2 to 3 mpg more with acetone. The point being that after 150,000 miles there are no fuel tank failures, no rubber hose failures, no plastic fitting failures, nada...zip...so the ratio plays a key role in the "corrosion" that acetone should cause.
and yes I will defiently run it in the Ram and I have no worries about damage....How many people run a predator or other tuner? Do they not worry about damage? Why do so many ask if it leaves a "footprint"???? I would say run it and record the before and after results and decide for yourself. The only thing I would recomend is that you either store it in the original can, or store it in premixed glass bottles outside of the cab area. Carry a measuring cup and funnel if you leave it in the original can. For the record, it evaporates quickly when exposed the air...in a matter of seconds, but I don't doubt that it would cause paint damage it continually exposed and poured onto the paint. I myself have had no issues.
For the record I am running factory injectors, factory hoses and 250,000 miles later with no issues.

DERRICK CONSTRUCTION File d March 7, .1932 1 2 Sheets-Sheet I ATToe/vB Patented Nov. 14, 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE DERRICK CONSTRUCTION Arthur W. Lewis, La Canada; (Jali!., assignor to Petroleum Derrick Co. Ltd, La Canada, CaliL, a corporation of Nevada v My invention relates to oil well derricks fabricated from structural steel members. Such der ricks are in general use throughout the world and are fabricated by many manufacturers. All of these manufacturers, so far as I am aware, have adhered closely to standard tower design, using four leg members connected by girts, which encircle the derricks, and diagonal cross bracing members, each member of which extends from the junction of a girt with a leg to the junction of an adjacent girt on an adjacent leg, the cross bracing members crossing each other at approximately the center of the panel formed by the two girts and the two legs.
In steel derricks of all kinds with which I am. familiar, including the derrick described herein, the corner legs are designed to carry the entire vertical load. In addition to this vertical load, such derricks are subjected to certain loads producing horizontal stresses in the derrick. Such stresses for example are produced by the drill pipe which is not in use and which rests upon the derrick door and leans against the upper portion of the derrick. Since several thousand feet of pipe in long stands are constantly so stored, the horizontal component of force produced thereby on the derrick is considerable.
In addition to this component the derrick in times of high wind is subjected to horizontal loadis eliminated and in which a novel arrangement of diagonal bracing is used. By this novel arrangement I am able to produce a derrick having the same ability to resist the forces to which a derrick issubjected as the conventional form of derrick but in which a considerable saving in weight of material over that used in the conventional derrick is possible due to a better utilization of material.
In derricks of my invention the diagonal members are also depended upon to resist the horizontal load components imposed on the derrick, but these diagonal members are in compression. Derricks constructed in accordancewith my invention are not only more economical in material usedin their construction than conventional derricks but are much more rigid, due to the open 'showing'the preferred form of derrick embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is an elevation of side of said derrick.
Fig. 3 is an elevation of the calf wheel'side of said derrick.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged view showing one method of connecting the various derrick members.
Fig. 5 is an elevation showing a center six point connection.
Fig. 6 is a view showing a corner six point diagonal connection as it would appear were that portion of the structure shown to the left of the line a--a turned 90 towards the plane of the paper from its actual position.
Fig. 7 is a section through one of the legs.
Fig. 8 is a section taken as indicated by the line b--b of Fig. 6;. this figure, however, is not distorted from its normal plane.
In the drawings I have illustrated a derrick of the proportions usually employed in well drilling rigs, the derrick having four sides and being substantially larger at its base than at its upper end. I have illustrated a construction suitable for a derrick in the neighborhood of 120 feet so high and intended to carry various units of drilling equipment, such as a crown block, drawworks, etc.
The derrick illustrated, being four-sided, includes four legs 10. In accordance with the present invention, horizontal girts 11 are provided at each side of the derrick to extend between. the legs 10, diagonal members 12 are provided between the girts 11 and the legs 10, and various other features of construction are provided, as will be hereinafter described.
The legs 10 of the derrick are located at the corners of the structure and extend from the base 1 to the upper end. Each leg 10, in accordance with my invention, involves three principal parts, namely, two main flanges 13 lying in the planes of the adjoining sides of the derrick, and an outer flange 14 projecting outwardly from the point of intersection of the main flanges 13. The
theladder and pump -'main flanges together form an angle-shaped structure, each main flange for a part to which the girts and diagonal members of the structure may be connected. The outer flange 14 projects. outwardly from the corner formed by the main flanges so that there are equal angles between the outer flange and the two main flanges,'as clearly illustrated in Fig. 'l of the drawings. The outer flange 14, because of its relationship to the main flanges, adds a sub stantial amountof strength and rigidity to the leg by the addition of but little material to the structure formed by the main flanges alone.
In accordance with the preferred form of the invention, each leg is of sectional construction, 1. e., the legconstruction just described is in two sections, the line of division being through the center of the outer flange 14: in the plane of the outer flange, so that each leg section includes a main flange and an outer flange part 14. When the leg is assembled, as shown throughout the drawings, the flange parts la abut and are secured together as by bolts 15, or the like. In
practice, bolt holes are provided at suitable in-.
tervals throughout the lengths of the flange parts 14 and the bolts 15 are applied to secure the flange parts 1 together as the derrick is as sembled. A feature of the sectional leg construc= tion just described is that the sides of the der= rick can be assembled on the ground in sections of suitable length and then moved into position to be secured by coupling the flange parts 14 of the legs through the bolts 15.
In the structure of the present invention, there are several horizontal girts 11 at each side of the derrick. The girts 11 are arranged to extend between opposing main flanges 13 of the derrick legs and are vertically spaced. The girts 11 may be formed of angle iron and may be connected to the main flanges 13 of the legs through joints or connections such as I will hereinafter describe.
The invention provides a novel and eflective arrangement of diagonal members 12 between the legs 10 and horizontal girts 11. In accordance with the invention, there are four diagonal braces located in each space defined by adjacent legs of the derrick and adjacent girts 11 extending between said legs. The diagonal members 12 are connected to the opposing main flanges 13 of the said derrick legs at points intermediate the points of connection between the horizontal girts and the legs. Diagonal members A extend from their point of connection with the derrick legs upwardly and inwardly to a point where they adjoin each other and connect with the middle portion of the upper girt 11, while diagonal members B extend from their point of connection with the legs downwardly and inwardly -to a point where they adjoin and connect with the lower girt 11. This arrangement of parts is clearly illustrated in Figs. 1, 2, and 3 of the drawings. The diagonal members A and B are preferably formed of angle iron and are connected with the leg flanges and the girts through connections such as I will hereinafter describe. In the case illustrated, the diagonal members are shown connected directly to the leg flanges 13 and are shown connected to gusset plates 16 attached to the horizontal girts by bolts 17. The diagonal members 12 of the construction are active or load-carrying parts of the structure and, when the derrick is under a strain, these members act either under compression or tensiofl. By supporting the diagonal members 12 intermediate their ends, a given load capacity can be gained by the use of lighter members than aesaecs the diagonal members and extend to points ad- 3 jacent the points of connection between the horizontal girts 11 and the legs 10.
It is to be noted that the braces 18 that may be employed to permit of the use of light diagonal members are comparatively short and form. but a small portion of the derrick structure.
The framing and bracing at the lower part of the derrick may vary considerably from the main derrick construction that I have hereinabove described in order to accommodate equipment such as may be employed in connection with the derrick. In the drawings, I have shown framing below the horizontal girts C suitable for .units or? equipment such as are commonly employed in the drilling of oil wells.
My present invention provides a joint or con nection for coupling the ends of the angle iron members with the other parts, for instance, with the leg flanges and the gusset plates. In accordance with my invention, a reinforcing member 20 is applied to the end portion of the angle iron, being connected to the member, and a bolt 21, or the like, connects the reinforcing member and one flange of the angle iron to the member to which the angle iron is connected, while a bolt 22 connects the reinforcing member with the other flange of the angle iron. The reinforcing member may be an angle-shaped part designed to flt into the angle iron and having flanges 23 fitting against the inner sides of the flanges of the angle iron. The main connecting bolt 21 which joins the. angle iron to the member to which it is to be connected joins two flanges and the reinforcing member to the angle iron. The bolt 22 joins the other flange of the angle iron to the other flange 23 of the reinforcing member. Through the medium of the reinforcing member and the bolts 21 and 22, the second or otherwise unsupported flange of the angle iron is connected with the member to which the angle iron is con= nected, thus developing the strength of both flanges of the angle iron. In addition to the bolt 21, the reinforcing member 20, the angle, and the member to which the angle iron is connected may be connected through a lug 2% formed on one 1 ltl flange 23 of the reinforcing member to project of the derrick can be assembled on the ground and lifted into place, where they may be made secure by the bolts 15 joining the flange parts 14 of the leg sections. It is to be noted that the outwardly projecting flange parts 14 are angularly disposed so that a side section of the derrick can be readily moved inwardly into position so that it is guided by the flange sections 14 of the adjoining sides of the derrick and that the leg parts requiring connection, 1. e., the flange parts is, are located so that the bolts 15 can be readily applied.
It will be noted that the diagonal members 1122 form six point (or member) connections at the points indicated by the dotted circles at we and 101 in Fig. l. The connections at point 100 are shown in Fig. 5, and the connections at point 101 are shown in Fig. 6.
Referring to Fig. 5 it will be seen that forces are distributed from the point 102 in six direc tions, due to the six members which radiate 'iZro this point (the girt i1 acting as two of these members).
Referring to Fig. 6 it will be seen that forces are distributedfrom the point 103 in six directions, due to the six members which 1'11:- from this point (the leg is acting as two of these members).
The derrick in fact consists of legs and (lieg onal members, each of the diagonal members terminating at each end in a six point connection.
ese diagonal members difier from the corn ventional cross bracing foundin all sorts of strnc= tures in that they act in compression to resist horizontal forces.
It will further be noted. that in the embodiment of my invention, as shown in Fig. 6, the diagonals of one side are definitely positioned with relation to the diagonals of an adjacent side, that is all the diagonals at one end or the other terminate at a six point connection which is de up of the legs, two diagonals from one side and two diagonals from another side. This six point system or bracing gives great stifiness to the derrick with a um use of material.
I claim as my invention:
i. In an oil well derrick, the combination of:
iour leg members; girt members arranged in sets of four extending around the-derrick in the same plane and being connected at their ends to said legs; and diagonal members each extending from and connected toadjacent legs, said diagonal members being so placed that they form with the girts six point connections at the centers or said girts and that they form with the legs six point connections on said legs at a point midway between the planes oi adjacent girts.
2. In an oil well derrick, the combination of: tour leg members; gilt members arranged in sets or tour extending around the derrick; in the same plane and being connected at their ends to said legs; diagonal members each extending from and connected to adjacent legs, said diagonal inexn= hers heing'so placed that they form with the sirts six point connections at the centers of snid. sirts and that they form with the legs sis: point connections on said legs at a point midway between the planes of adjacent girts; auxiliary hraces substantially perpendicular to said diagonal members, each of said braces extending from the junction of a girt with a leg to a point on 'a diagonal brace midway between thegirt and the leg; and means for securing one end of said brace to said leg and the other end oi said brace to said diagonal member.

I want to specify only the properties I want to override in a test properties file of the same name in the src/test/resources folder.
A little more detail...
In a maven layout I have a properties file that contains the deployed value to use (eg. input.uri).
This file's properties are loaded into the context.xml file by the property-placeholder:
<context:property-placeholder properties-ref="springProperties"/>
<util:properties id="springProperties" local-override="true" location="classpath:app.properties" />
I have the test properties file with the same name, app.properties, in src/test/resources folder and override the input.uri definition to one that my junit test will use. (note, app.name doesn't change).
How would you write the junit test and/or a test context.xml file so that properties are loaded from the src/main/resources/app.properties file, but any properties defined in the src/test/resources/app.properties file override the ones in the src/main/resources/app.properties file? Without it being obvious that you're loading two different files either in the src/main files or src/test junit test files - I want the property placeholder to search the classpath and pick the right values.

I'm on the other end of the spectrum from flynnibus. I rarely drink alcohol, and most bars and night clubs make me uncomfortable. I've only been to the AC once (with a group of MiceChatters), and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Didn't have to get liquored up, either.
The entertainment experience there is more like the old Golden Horseshoe--on steroids! Corny humor and audience participation, etc. The last thing on my mind was what to order to drink!
