Revolver - Colt New Line, 1876 Reg. No: ST 019050
- Summary:
- Colt New Line Pocket centrefire revolver, 2nd model, cal. .380 in. long, rifled round barrel 56 mm (2 1/4 inch) long.
Made by Colt's Patent Fire Arms Manufacturing Co, Hartford, Connecticut. Serial number 3699 stamped under barrel, 1876.
- Description:
- Five chambered long fluted cylinder, solid steel frame and backstrap with little original colour remaining, sheath trigger, dark brown two-piece non-chequered birdshead wooden grips fixed by a centrally mounted screw, white paint mark on left hand grip and cylinder. Bladed front sight, loading flute with thin loading gate on frame right hand side missing, hammer shows light original blueing.
Stamped at rear end of cylinder with British proofmarks, British proofmarks stamped under barrel at cylinder end.
- Statement Of Significance:
- Most of the New Line models appeared across 1873-74 following the success had by the preceeding Colt Open-Top .22 and Cloverleaf models. The New Lines were produced in a variety of sizes ranging from the smallest at .22 rimfire up to the .41 rimfire, and .41 centrefire. The first models, appearing before 1876, had shorter cylinder flutes and stopping slots on the outer rear face of the cylinder. The later, or second model, had the flutes extended back, and the stopping cut on the back of the cylinder. In advertising literature of the period, many arms dealers and distributors favoured nicknames for the various New Line models. Prominent distributor, B. Kittredge & Co, advertised the model in 1878 under the followed titles: calibre .22 - The Little Colt, calibre .30 - The Pony Colt, calibre .32 - The Ladies Colt, calibre .38 - The Pet Colt, calibre .41 - The Big Colt. The last model of the New Lines was produced in 1886, thirteen years after they began.

Micromechanisms find a wide range of applications in the field of medicine, surgery, satellite, spacecraft engineering and telecommunication systems etc. Miniaturization inherits along with it various advantages, challenges and issues. Achieving precision, accuracy and manufacturing of such systems is a challenging task and these parameters drive the performance obtained from the system. Microsystems involve development of Micromechanisms for a typical application in order to achieve desired motion/force transfer. A compliant mechanism provides a joint less alternative (which overcomes the limitation of conventional rigid body mechanism like back lash, lubrication etc.) and is a vital parameter which needs to be considered while designing a micromechanism. The current paper is a review of various compliant micromechanisms communicated by different researchers and discussion on their merits, limitations and applications is included. A compliant pantograph has been proposed for a typical application, wherein it is required to replicate as well as amplify the input motion. KEYWORDS: Micromechanisms, Replication of motion, Compliant pantograph. 1. INTRODUCTION Miniaturization has inherited the necessity to design and develop micromechanisms/components and significant research & development activities have boosted in this field. Establishment of MEMS technology has further accelerated the need for micromanipulation/displacement and micro-positioning. Micro-motion devices are expected to deliver high positioning accuracy and potentially have wide applications in the industry like in 574 International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 3, Issue 3, Sep- Dec (2012) © IAEME development of Microfactories/Table top precision micro setups etc. Miniaturization is associated with various advantages and challenges; a smaller system has lower inertia of mass enabling quick response from the system. The overall performance of the system is an outcome/result of precise and accurate behavior of various systems/components involved. However, precision, accuracy and manufacturing of such systems is a challenging task and these parameters drive the resulting performance obtained. Microsystems involve development of Micro mechanism for desired motion/force transfer. Traditional rigid body mechanisms consist of rigid links connected with movable joints and are capable of transforming linear motion into rotational or force into torque. These mechanisms are adversely affected by issues such as friction, wear, lubrication, backlash etc. and hence these mechanisms cannot be used for precise applications. A new class of mechanisms known as compliant mechanisms has hence gained significant importance in MEMS. Compliant mechanisms [1, 2] are designed to derive mobility from elastic deformation of particular element (i.e. flexural hinge or a relatively long flexible segment of a mechanism); which use strain energy to transform input energy components into a desired output displacement/motion. Compliant mechanisms provide a joint less alternative which overcomes the limitations of conventional rigid body mechanisms. They are monolithic structures and require no assembly, however manufacturing them requires selection of appropriate techniques viz. WEDM, Laser Machining, ECM etc. The current paper is a review of compliant micromechanisms communicated by various researchers [3-11] and their merits, limitations and probable applications are discussed. A compliant pantograph has been proposed for a typical application, wherein it is required to replicate and amplify the input motion. 1. OBJECTIVES OF CURRENT WORK • To study the micro mechanisms communicated by various researchers [3-11]. • To propose another flexure based micromechanism in the family, capable of transmitting motion/force linearly and replicating the input motion. 2. REVIEW OF VARIOUS MICROMECHANISMS The various compliant micromechanisms surveyed are prioritized depending on the resultant functionality desired from the micromechanism. Y. Tiana et. al. [3] presented a table positioning mechanism for a grinder comprising of flexure hinges as shown in Figure 1. A piezoelectric actuator is mounted on the base and located against the center of the bottom of the moving platform through a ball tip. The moving platform can traverse forward and backward (up and down) on a parallel flexure mechanism .The hinges provide lateral stiffness for the moving platform as well as spring preload for the piezo-electric actuator (PZT). The guarantee of perfectly achieving the motion depends upon the accurate manufacture of profile as per design and hence the flexure hinges are manufactured using the wire electro discharge machining (WEDM) technique. This mechanism provides a self retracting and precise table positioning however it cannot provide displacement amplification. 575 International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 3, Issue 3, Sep- Dec (2012) © IAEME Fig. 1 Piezo-driven flexure-based mechanism [3] Ranier Clement et al [4] have presented a RRR (3 rotational) type compliant positioning system as shown in Figure 2. The mechanism comprises of piezoelectric actuation elements along with compliant body. Flexure hinges deform with respect to other portions of the material to enact sense of motion and force transfer. This RRR compliant mechanism is actuated with three PZT actuators embedded in a piece of complaint material. This mechanism is a general purpose parallel manipulator that has many applications like manipulator, scanning stage etc. Amplification of motion may not be the desired function of such type of mechanism. Fig. 2 Model of PZT–RRR mechanism [4] Oscar Chaides [5] illustrated the use of Flexure based micromechanism in the positioning of a system in Micro-EDM as shown in Figure 3. In Micro-EDM (µEDM), the tool and work piece are not in direct contact, and the tool motion is small relative to the part. The micro positioner shown in Figure 3 is intended to provide horizontal linear motion to acrylic tank filled with dielectric fluid. This micromechanism is used to get a reduction 10 times in displacement. This caused excessive deflection in simulation as seen in Figure 3. This may reduce the fatigue life of the mechanism and hence the flexure hinges are to be checked for fatigue failure. 576 International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 3, Issue 3, Sep- Dec (2012) © IAEME Fig.3 Flexure based motion amplifier used in Micro EDM [5] Compliant mechanisms are widely used in micro-grippers. The micro-clasp gripper presented by Sandeep Krishnan and Laxman Saggere [6], conceptually illustrated in Figure 4 is a planar mechanism comprising of two main components, an end-effector that can be lowered down from top and folded/unfolded around an object by the action of a linear actuator and a compliant mechanism. The mechanism transforms the force and displacements from the actuator to the end-effector. The end- effector is a closed-loop structure with a hollow interior. The folding and unfolding actions of the end- effector structure around an object lying within the structure boundaries causes "clasping" and "unclasping" of the object. (a) (b) Fig.4 Conceptual diagram of the micro-clasp gripper (a) open and (b) closed [6] In the area of microgrippers, A. Nikoobin N and M. Hassani Niaki [7] studied various microgrippers as shown in Figure 5 (a) and (b). Sudarshan Hegde & G.K.Ananthasuresh [8] have worked on a microgripper as shown in Figure 5 (c). These grippers are used for the gripping of micro objects where attention is on the gripping action and allied motion transfer. (a) (b) (c) Fig. 5 Various Microgrippers [7,8] 577 International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – Sep- 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 3, Issue 3, Sep Dec (2012) © IAEME A. Nikoobin N and M. Hassani Niaki [7] discussed the concept of Displacement Amplification Factor (DAF) which is the ratio between output displacement (jaw displacement) echanism. and input displacement applied from the micro actuator to the gripper mechanism. Factor (DAF) [7] Fig. 6 Displacement Amplification F , As shown in Figure 6, DAF = d2/d1, where d1 is the actuator displacement and d2 is the jaw displacement. Higher the value of this factor, the gripping range increases and the gripper he can manipulate higher dimension micro objects. The actuation range of micro actuators, like iezoelectric piezoelectric actuators, is low and a mechanism with a high displacement amplification factor is desirable to increase the gripping range. On the other hand, according to the lever principle, force increasing the output displacement in the arms leads to decrease in gripping force. mechanism The Researchers have worked on various displacement amplification mechanisms. The following Figure7, Figure 8 and Figure 9 show Compliant Motion Amplifier (CMA) micromechanisms. Fig. 7 Dimension and flexure hinge parameters of Fig.8 A bridge type displacement the designed CMA [9] [10 amplifier [10] A bridge type amplification mechanism as shown in Figure 7 is presented by John ure Michael Acob et al [9] and Figure 8 is presented by Qingsong Xu & Yangmin Li, [10]. It has been reported that these mechanisms provides large amplification ratio and are compact in size. fier The output end of the amplifier is usually connected to a specific device for drives. Qingling Liu displacement et al [11] have also presented a similar design for Micro-displacement amplification as shown in Figure 9. 578 International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 3, Issue 3, Sep- Dec (2012) © IAEME Fig. 9 Symmetrical micro-displacement amplification mechanism [11] These mechanisms have a horizontal input and vertical output, used in many industrial applications with a PZT actuator. Qingling Liu et al [11] have reported the presence of a lateral displacement in a lever arm based micromechanism as shown in Figure10. Lever arm based micromechanisms are hence least useful in a typical application involving directional constraints though they can provide a large displacement amplification. Fig. 10 Lateral error in Lever arm [11] 3. FINDINGS OF LITERATURE SURVEY The literature review of various compliant micromechanisms was carried out. The micromechanisms have been used to provide displacement, its amplification, and reduction. Many of them are based on the lever arm principle and are least capable of providing linear directional movements. The aspect of obtaining amplification/reduction and replication from the micromechanism has not been considered/communicated in the present available literature. 4. NEED OF A COMPLIANT 5 BAR MICROMECHANISM The aspect of obtaining amplification/reduction and replication of input motion from the micromechanism has not been considered and needed to be addressed. Hence a compliant pantograph has been proposed with following objectives. • In plane linear motion/force transfer. • To replicate the input motion. • To obtain geometric amplification and reduction. 5. GEOMETRIC MODELING OF A PANTOGRAPH Pantograph is a well established mechanism that is used to replicate/imitate and amplify/reduce the motion on selecting the proper link lengths. The required amplification or reduction can be obtained from mechanism when input is given at point 'D' or 'E' respectively. Figure 11 represents a pin joint parallelogram ABCD. It is made up of bars connected by turning pairs. The bars AB and BC are extended to points O and E respectively, such that points O-D-E are collinear. 579 International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 3, Issue 3, Sep- Dec (2012) © IAEME Fig.11 Rigid Link Pantograph. For a pantograph, Taking 2OA=OB=60 units, and 2AD =BE=45 units, Thus, for all relative positions of the bars the ∆OAD and ∆OBE are similar and the points O-D-E are collinear. It may be proved that point E traces out the same path as described by point D. In similar way, if input is given at point E, reduction of motion can be obtained at point D. In consideration of use of the mechanism for linear motion, let point 'O' be constrained and the points 'D' and 'E' move to some new positions D′ and E′ as shown in Figure 12. Fig. 12 Geometric analysis of rigid link pantograph ′ ′ It is very clear that the imaginary line DD′ is parallel to the traced parallel line EE′. Hence, if point D is constrained to move in vertical direction, point E will provide vertical amplified motion. Similarly, if point E is constrained to move in a straight line, then point D will trace out a straight line parallel to the former but motion will be reduced. Considering above dimensions, Geometric Amplification of the mechanism is expected to be almost twice based on the above link length analysis. Based on above analysis, a Compliant Pantograph is presented below as shown in Figure 13 Fig.13. Compliant Pantograph This Compliant Pantograph is expected to provide Geometric amplification (almost twice) at the output point E when linear input is given at point D. Advantage of this mechanism is the linear directional output for linear input which is required for most of the micro-positioning stages. 580 International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 3, Issue 3, Sep- Dec (2012) © IAEME 6. CONCLUSION The micromechanisms communicated by various researchers have considered force and motion transfer as per the functional need. However hardly any mechanism communicated is capable of force as well as motion transfer along with amplification/reduction in motion. A compliant pantograph is proposed for transmitting motion and force linearly by replicating the input motion. Compliant mechanisms offer a joint less alternative to overcome the limitations of conventional rigid body mechanisms such as backlash, lubrication etc. Manufacturing of the hinge requires selection of appropriate techniques viz. WEDM, Laser Machining, ECM etc. These Compliant mechanisms are designed to derive expected mobility from elastic deformation of flexure hinges. Since the hinges are subjected to fluctuating/reverse loading, the hinge design is a critical aspect. Critical analysis of flexure hinges needs to be carried out as it is the most important parameter and success of compliant micromechanism depends on the performance of the flexure hinges. A Pseudo Rigid Body Model [1,2] method has been proposed for the simplified design of flexure hinges, wherein the hinges are modeled as torsional springs and the compliant mechanism is then treated as a rigid body mechanism for further analysis. A comprehensive study of different aspects discussed needs to be carried out in the analysis of compliant micromechanism which are the need of industry. 7.

Fallen Isle
((Outdated information, under construction))
Mayra is the second largest land mass on earth, and rests between the expansive landmass of Relath and Vakath, a land of high mountains of stone and craters along its twisted shores. The Katoe Islands are actually part of the continent, branching out from beyond the wide Metoa channel that splits the isles from the mountainous landmass. Its major landmark is Mt. Etoh, a massive mountain that starts at the northern and eastern shores, and blocks that side of the continent completely, albeit a few small valleys that cut into its side facing the islands. Beyond the mountains peak lie the clay and rock hills of the Myrian badlands, whose red, broken chasms spread from the imposing mountain ridges. Beyond this, the continent flattens out somewhat into rolling green plains along its wide plateaus stretching to its southern shore. This has long been the home to a monk-like society that has lived in peace with the sea-farers that have visited their island. The native population is almost entirely Human, and is the oldest race of human that currently exists, but has a large population of Dwarves and a small collection of Halflings. They live through farming the plains made fertile from rivers that have made their way from the springs of Mt Dehran through the mineral rich mountain valleys and from herding the diverse species of grazers they tame. Their skill in husbandry is regarded as some of the best in the world, breeding the planet's finest and strongest horses. To the north is a more modernized Myria, based around mining operations among the many cliff faces. Here lie the stone fortress cities and mining towns that are scattered around the barren red clay bluffs and plateaus. Cloistered in the largest castle cities lay the centers of the Myrian government, the Cathedrals of Ka'ta; the judgment carried out here is final and unquestionable. The holy doctrines kept here are kept under lock, with only a few of the high priests allowed to see the original relics that shape the religion to which the nation's laws are bound. Lately, the nation's fervor for holy war has increased, bringing even the peaceful herders and monks of southern Myria into an aggressive frenzy. Their methods of dealing with heretics and general dissenting of the masses has fallen to secret police, making the undesirables disappear for good, while occasionally remerging in a catatonic, but servile state. What exactly happens to them is unknown, but just one of the frightening revisions of the ancient, supposedly unchanging laws. Their high scion, Ka'ta, has been regarded as a vengeful priestess, who gets credit to smiting the unbelieving and destroying those who would defy her will. As such, those holding faith believe this is her step toward a judgment day, to which all her faithful will hold dominion across Fhetoh, or at least the rulers of Myria hope as such. The rulers of Myria have begun producing more weapons, armor, ships, and recruiting many more soldiers than ever before within the past centuries. They have shut off their borders and ports from import, allowing only food and timber from the breadbasket of Relath's western shores and iron and provisions from Vakath. This unwarranted need for military strength has struck fear in the people of the nearby Noth islands, their mighty sea capabilities have protected their shores in the past but the Myrian armada grows at an alarming rate. Their land grabs on the small stretches of land on their northern shore have crippled the Kaeto from producing an adequate amount of food to support themselves, relying solely on trade to survive. Myria's wraith appears to be imminent, as the world, especially the Kaeto, tremble in fear.

Wages for Chinese workers have risen, and the company is planning on moving its plastics division to Mumbai, India, where labor is cheaper.More from GlobalPost: Bye-bye cheap, Chinese laborThe workers are receiving "pretty nice" severance packages, Starnes told the Associated Press – as much as a year's pay for the longest-serving employees.Other employees at the company heard about the severance packages and started demanding similar payouts, fearing the company was going to shut down the entire Beijing operation, Starnes said. Starnes told CNN that 80 to 100 employees are asking for about $500,000, which would bankrupt the company."I tried to leave…, and there was like 60 or 70 of them here inside every entrance, and every exit was barricaded," Starnes told CNN today. The workers have also attempted to prevent him from sleeping on a cot in his office by shining lights into the room and banging on the windows, he said.Some workers told reporters that they were actually seeking two months' worth of overdue wages.According to the AP:It is not rare in China for managers to be held by workers demanding back pay or other benefits, often from their Chinese owners, though occasionally also involving foreign bosses."I feel like a trapped animal," Starnes told the AP on Monday from his first-floor office window. "I think it's inhumane what is going on right now. I have been in this area for 10 years and created a lot of jobs and I would never have thought in my wildest imagination something like this would happen."

From My Seat: 'The Expendables 3'
Published: Wednesday, August 20, 2014 at 11:10 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, August 20, 2014 at 11:10 p.m.
Large, over-the-top set pieces, big-\ name action stars, one-liners, explosions, bullets, baddies, and a villain? These are the elements of a classic action movie, and "The Expendables 3" delivers on every note!
With an all-star cast led by action hero greats Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, and even Arnold Schwarzenegger, you know right out of the gate that this movie will delight even the mildest of classic action movie fans. That's what "The Expendables 3" sets out to do and nails it perfectly. It doesn't need an elaborate plot, intensely in-depth characters or symbolic undertones.
Our regular characters are brought to the table with a decent understanding that we know them, there's nothing that will lose you.
The new characters, however, are rushed in their introduction, leaving us hanging. Mel Gibson shines as the lead villain. It's been a while since we've seen him, and he knows how to bring a great villain to the table.
This film is a must-see for any true action movie fans. Go in, laugh with your friends, and enjoy the chaos!

What is Peyronie's Disease?
Peyronie's disease is a connective tissue disorder in which fibrous plaques develop in the soft tissue of the penis. This can cause several problems such as pain, erectile dysfunction, loss of girth, abnormal curvature, and shortening. Having a curved erection is common and isn't necessarily a cause for concern however a curve that is severe or painful can be a major sign of this disease. About 5 percent of men worldwide get affected with this disease and no effective treatments for it have been found. Painful erection and curving make it very difficult to have sex or maintain or have an erection and this causes a lot of stress and anxiety for the patient suffering from this disease.
Symptoms of Peyronie's Disease
There have been some very obvious signs and symptoms of Peyronie's Disease reported by sufferers and medical experts. These symptoms normally include:

Rope and Can Bird Feeder
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
This Rope and Can Bird Feeder is one of the easiest crafts out there - even your kids could help create it. Use an old tin can and some rope to make this eco-friendly DIY bird feeder. In 20 minutes, you'll have a fantastic bird feeder to hang from your house, garage, or anywhere outside you'd like. You and your family will have fun watching all the different types of birds come and go all spring long.
- Clean tin can – keep the lid (I used a large tomato can)
- Sisal rope
- Piece of metal for post (sorry, I don't even know what I used, it was just a scrap I found in the garage)
- Glue gun and glue
Take the tin can lid and bend it in half.
Take the metal for the post and glue it down so that there is enough room for the birds to perch while they eat.
Insert your can lid so that it fits nicely over the metal piece you just glued in and is just inside the opening of the can and glue into place making sure there are no openings for the seed to fall through.
Find the top middle of the can and glue a long piece of sisal rope (about 2.5 ft) from top to bottom of the can so that you have 1 ft on either side of the can hanging off (you'll tie this together at the end) - this will be the part that hangs from the hook or tree.
Now, starting at the top of the can, slowly glue down the sisal rope from one end to the other by going around the can in a circular motion until you reach the bottom of the can. Cut the rope and glue in ends.
Cut a piece of rope the exact size of the front of the can and glue on around the top/front edge to help give a nicer finished look to the feeder.
Tie the two 1 foot piece ends that are still hanging to the sides together in a knot.
Fill with bird seed and hang from a hook or tree.

The Trial of William Hammond
IN THE MILITARY CHAIN OF COMMAND, SURGEON General Hammond reported directly to Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton, yet Stanton had been opposed to Hammond's appointment. The secretary of war felt that the Sanitary Commission and other civilian dogooders had forced Hammond upon him. Stanton told several people that Hammond was ";the Sanitary Commission's Surgeon General, not mine.";1 The ambulance corps was eventually taken from the quartermasters and placed under medical control, but only after Hammond had accused his superior of a disregard of the comfort of the wounded. Hammond's letter after Second Bull Run virtually accused Stanton of willful neglect of Union wounded. Disagreement and distrust festered between these two strong-minded individuals.
Hammond's support from the civilian medical community dissipated overnight. On 4 May 1863 Hammond ordered the removal of calomel and tartar emetic from the official formulary of the U.S. Army, called the army supply table. Hammond became convinced that these drugs killed more patients than they helped. The excessive use of calomel caused salivation, gum sores, and tooth loss. The vomiting produced by tartar emetic could further dehydrate a person already limp from chronic diarrhea. The vomiting and purging of debilitated soldiers worsened their conditions. But when Hammond removed these medications from the army formulary, much of the civilian medical community arose in revolt. For a generation, medical doctors had competed with a series of other healers, with botanists and homeopaths, whose only unifying creed was that regular medicine used too much calomel. Now, the leading army doctor seemed to corroborate the criticism of all these sect practitioners. Hammond, whom they had praised as a fine example of the best that modern medicine had to offer, now seemed to be trying to destroy mainstream medical practice.
Stanton sent the surgeon general on a series of inspection tours: to Hilton Head, South Carolina, then by ship around the entire Confederacy to New Orleans. While Hammond was away from Washington, Stanton appointed Joseph K. Barnes as the acting surgeon general. During the past year, Barnes had become Stanton's personal physician and then his friend; the two men and their wives vacationed together.
Hammond traveled up the Mississippi on the U.S. Hospital Steamer D.A. January, recently renamed the Charles McDougall after an elderly career army doctor. He left New Orleans on 28 October and arrived at Cairo on 2 November. Only one hundred sick soldiers were aboard, so the medical commander of the vessel, Alexander Hoff, had plenty of time to talk with the touring surgeon general. Late in 1862 Hoff had written from this very vessel that soldiers coming aboard were showing evidence of the effects of too much calomel. ";This treatment, as far as my experience goes,"; he concluded, ";cannot be necessary.";2 Hammond had followed Hoff's lead and had restricted the use of this most potent of remedies. In discussing the situation on this trip, Hoff could only suggest that the army should obtain better doctor3. But Hammond had to use the doc-

Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr database of photography. Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly
from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos
are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos
(as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of
Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr
user and use Flickr Stats you
may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer).
Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them.
There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see
Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples.
If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a)
make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by
Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at:
http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites.
(c) Finally, you can
Banish Yourself
From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are. Once logged in, come back to this area
and there will be a link to banish you. If there are any problems email me at nosflickrhivemind ... at ... fiveprime ... dot ... org. (a few people with weird characters in their user names may have had problems)Log In To Flickr Now
Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr photography database, allowing search by: tags(keywords); Flickr photography groups; Flickr users, their contacts, and favorites; free text; the Flickr Explore algorithm for interestingness.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: 'The Hobbit' movie« on: December 9, 2010, 09:41 AM »
Sounds like another LOTR vet, other than Serkis, McKellen, and Weaving, may be returning for the Hobbit in some capacity.
Ummm...Why are they adding characters to the movie who weren't in the actual novel?
This turns my stomach...it reeks of a cheap money-grab, and does nothing to augment the story, which is perfectly fine as originally written.

34 year old woman | La Plata, MD, USA | Seeking men 29-40 within 30 miles of Great Mills, MD
Personality opens doors, character keeps them open.
So here are a few things about me...I am a labor and delivery nurse and I am lucky enough to love my job. We spend so much time working in our lives, so at least we should enjoy what we do. I enjoy all kinds outdoor things like hiking, kayaking, gardening, road biking and anything in the water. I do like sports, football being my favorite, and I do understand it. There is almost always a hint of sarcasm in my voice and I don't embarass easily, so I am pretty much an open book. I feel just as comfortable with my hair in a ponytail and no make up as I do all dolled up. I keep myself busy with my full time job, school, and volunteering. Here is what I am looking for...someone with a career, it would be awesome if you enjoyed it. Someone that actually likes women and isn't dating to see how many woman they can meet. Someone who would choose quality over quantity. Opens doors, buys cards that he has actually read, likes a lazy day here and there, and wakes up thinking how can I make "her" day better today. I am looking for the man that puts all the other guys to shame. It is a tall order I know, but I am happy to wait until I find it. I would not ask for something that I would not be willing and able to do also.

I grew up arond water, so my favorite places usually involve a beach. Hawaii has been my favorite vacation spot.
Lets see...favorite things....favorite color is yellow and pink is a close second. Some of my favorite tv shows are The Walking Dead, Law and Order: SVU, Homeland, the Americans, I just started watching Mad Men on Netflix.
I can pretty much have fun doing anything. I enjoy watching movies, spending time with the ones I love, going to sports games (football and baseball), doing anything in the water or at the beach, I like road biking, and so much more...
I enjoy true stories. My favorite so far has been Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. It's about the life of a WWII POW. It's powerful. If you are having a bad day, read it. It will put life into perspective.

Who's the most stressed? A new study might just have the answer.
The findings, published in the Journal of Applied Social Psychology, shows that stress levels have increased by 10 to 30 percent among all different demographic groups in the U.S. between 1983 and 2009. However, Carnegie Mellon University researchers also found that stress decreased as people got older, with retirees reporting low stress.
"We know that stress contributes to poorer health practices, increased risk for disease, accelerated disease progression and increased mortality," study researcher Sheldon Cohen, a psychology professor at CMU, said in a statement. "Differences in stress between demographics may be important markers of populations under increased risk for physical and psychological disorders."
The study included examinations of stress at three specific points in time: 1983, 2006 and 2009. The researchers looked at all sorts of different demographic information, including gender, age, employment, race, education and income, to see if there were changes in stress among these groups over the 26-year period. The study was based on phone interviews of 2,387 adults, as well as online responses from 4,000 adults.
The researchers found that women, people with less education and people with low incomes reported more stress at all three time points than other demographics.
In addition, researchers found that particularly during the 2006 and 2009 timepoints -- when the economic downturn was occurring -- there were increased reports of stress among college-educated, employed, white, middle-aged men.
And while researchers did find that stress levels have increased between the start and end of the study, "it's hard to say if people are more stressed now than before because the first survey was conducted by phone and the last two were done online," Cohen said in the satement. "But, it's clear that stress is still very much present in Americans' lives, putting them at greater risk for many diseases such as cardiovascular, asthma and autoimmune disorders."
Is daily life stressing you out? Click through the slideshow for these natural ways to relieve stress, based on research:
A recent study in the International Journal of Workplace Health Management showed that bringing your dog to work could help to lower office stress and boost employee satisfaction. "Pet presence may serve as a low-cost, wellness intervention readily available to many organizations and may enhance organizational satisfaction and perceptions of support," study researcher Randolph T. Barker, Ph.D., a professor of management at Virginia Commonwealth University, said in a statement. "Of course, it is important to have policies in place to ensure only friendly, clean and well-behaved pets are present in the workplace." The study, which looked at the pet-friendly company Replacements, Ltd., showed that employees who brought their dogs in to work experienced decreases in stress throughout the work day. Meanwhile, self-reported stress increased for people who didn't bring their dogs, and for those who don't have dogs.
If you're feeling particularly stressed, perhaps it's time to take a quick YouTube break. A small 1989 study in the American Journal of the Medical Sciences showed that "mirthful laughter" is linked with lower blood levels of the stress hormone cortisol. Mayo Clinic reported that laughter also promotes endorphin release in the brain and relaxes the muscles, which are all key for stress relief.
Caregiving is extremely stressful, but a 2008 survey showed that gardening may help to reduce stress among caregivers. The survey, by BHG.com, showed that 60 percent of caregivers feel relaxed when they garden, the Alzheimer's Association reported. And, Health.com reported on a Netherlands study, suggesting that gardening can help to lower cortisol levels and boost mood among people who had just finished a stressful task. That's because doing something that requires "involuntary attention" -- like sitting back and enjoying nature -- helps to replenish ourselves.
Just six minutes of reading is enough to help you de-stress, the Telegraph reported. The study, which was sponsored by Galaxy chocolate, suggested that reading was linked with a slower heart rate and muscle relaxation. However it is important to note that reading from a screen, such as an Ipad or Kindle, can disrupt sleep which can effect stress negatively.
Even if you're unable to talk to her in person, a call to mom can help lower stress. Scientific American reported on a study in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B showing that young girls who talked to their mothers on the phone after completing stressful tasks had decreased cortisol (the stress hormone) in their saliva, and increased oxytocin levels (the bonding hormone). The girls who talked to their mothers on the phone had decreased cortisol and increased oxytocin levels compared with young girls who weren't allowed to contact their mothers at all, Scientific American reported -- girls who hugged their moms in person had a similar reaction to the phone group.
Dark chocolate doesn't only have health benefits for the heart -- eating it can also help to lower stress. LiveScience reported on a study illustrating that eating 1.4 ounces of dark chocolate a day for a two-week period is linked with decreased levels of the stress hormone cortisol. That study was published in 2009 in the journal Proteome Research. (But of course, chocolate still contains sugar and lots of calories, so make sure you eat it in moderation!) Drinking tea has also been shown to reduce stress and may be a more healthy alternative.
Gossip may not be viewed as socially "good," but it might have benefits in relieving stress. Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, found that gossiping can actually lower stress, stop exploitation of others and police others' bad behavior. "Spreading information about the person whom they had seen behave badly tended to make people feel better, quieting the frustration that drove their gossip," study researcher Robb Willer, a social psychologist at UC Berkeley, said in a statement. Willer's research was published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. So if something's bothering you, go ahead and gab -- but just make sure you move on so you don't dwell on the negative emotions!

"This was the perfect colorful announcement for my winter baby girl! Feminine without the floral. It was nice to be able to feature a small photo of our new family on the back opposite of the larger photo of our precious baby girl."
"Loved how easy it was to drag and drop photos! Customization process was very user friendly and everyone loved how our announcement turned out. The card looked great and felt great! Loved that it felt like a good quality product and not a cheap price of paper. I definitely recommend this product!"
"My cards came out adorable! Remember to order the modified envelopes or you will pay extra shipping! I paid 70cents to mail each one instead of 49 cents"
"I got the shimmer looking on my cards & they were absolutely beautiful. They are great cards for the value & shipping was awesome too."
"The card design was perfect. Everyone we sent cards to raved about it. The paper quality was great and the price was fantastic."
