Very Rare and Important 1878 Morgan Quarter Eagle Pattern, Judd-15671878 $2 1/2 Quarter Eagle, Judd-1567, Pollock-1757, R.6-7, PR64 Gilt NGC. Morgan's quarter eagle design shows a large head of Liberty facing left with E PLURIBUS UNUM around the margin and the date below. The reverse has a spread-wing eagle in the center with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around and 2 1/2 DOLLARS below. Struck in copper (and gilt) with a reeded edge. These interesting and rare patterns were struck on thinner and slightly wider (20.5 mm vs. 18 mm) planchets than the regular issue. About a dozen are believed to exist. The significance of this particular pattern is that it is only available in copper and gold (two pieces known). Considering the extreme rarity and cost of gold patterns, this piece represents a good value for the pattern collector, especially with gilt surfaces that simulate a gold appearance. This design was also copied into a half eagle pattern, Judd-1568. Lightly hairlined, the gilt surface is still fully intact and the coin has a very pleasing overall appearance. Identifiable by a tiny spot below the L in PLURIBUS and a small planchet void near the reverse rim at 4 o'clock. (PCGS# 61929)

Healthcare Disparities and Global Health
Healthcare Disparities
Our program is highly committed to patient advocacy and ardently supports initiatives to improve the health of local, regional and international communities through direct patient care, development of policy & healthcare strategy, and research. During residency, trainees are provided opportunities to positively impact our local community. Residents staff The Corner Clinic, a subsidized clinic in Ypsilanti, MI geared towards high-risk children and young adults. Residents can also volunteer to see patients at Migrant Farm Worker Clinics – seasonal clinics that serve our migrant farming community. We also support residents who wish to extend their experiences more broadly within the United States through rotations at sites supported by the Indian Health Service (IHS) or Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
Global Health
At Michigan Pediatrics, global health is important and relevant to pediatric resident training; we believe that global health opportunities, both local and abroad, contribute to the development of socially-conscious, well-rounded pediatricians. Via a resident-based initiative with faculty support and mentoring, Michigan Pediatrics has developed a three-tiered approach to global heath training for our residents.
1. All Pediatric Residents are exposed to a Core Curriculum addressing fundamental topics in global health. In 2013-2014, these were officially integrated into our regular morning and noon conference schedule. They cover a range of topics including: Tropical Dermatology, International Neonatal/Maternal Health, Diarrhea and Dehydration Management in Low Resource Settings, and Treatment of Neonatal and Pediatric HIV/AIDS.
2. Residents can elect to participate in an international elective, choosing between University of Michigan affiliated and third-party resident-selected sites. In addition, a hospital-wide initiative seeking to strengthen Michigan's residency-wide global health program developed a specific Global Health and Disparities Curriculum with a monthly lecture series open to all residents. This series includes direct guidance in applying to international rotations. Our residents have rotated abroad in many countries, including Nicaragua, Ghana, Egypt, India, Colombia, Malawi and Tanzania.
• See our Resident Testimonials for more information and pictures
• A list of faculty members engaged in global health projects in which residents can participate.
3. Global Health and Health Disparities Area of Concentration: In the coming years, Michigan Pediatrics is aiming to develop a Global Health and Health Disparities Area of Concentration. Residents will participate in the hospital-wide lecture series, an international elective rotation and also have the opportunity to have faculty mentorship in global health. Other future projects include a Global Health Journal Club.

Re: Minecraft
I think it's fine to add more monsters and buff them, but then your own toolbox needs to expand, as well.
We have some primitive options for automated defenses. I would love to see more and better ways to weaponize pistons, automate arrow cannons, deploy fire against enemies, etc. I think Minecraft could become a sort of real-time strategy/tower defense game if they put more thought into those things, and it wouldn't lose anything in terms of the Survival mode.
I could do with things like waypoints/patrol routes for wolves, auto-aimed arrow cannons, etc. It's pretty easy to automate mob grinders but I think it's excessively difficult to defend a large structure. With Notch nerfing the Endermen's block-stealing abilities, I guess that doesn't leave any mobs that can destroy your stuff without you being around--Creepers still have to be set off, after all. But I think when they add a new mob, they should about what countermeasures players have against them, beyond the simple "run up and whack 'em with a sword" technique. And if we're going to have mobs that can grief your structures when you aren't around, provide an effective countermeasure. I don't care if you make it kind of costly (so you can't spam them), just make it be
I would point out that this also makes PvP a lot more interesting!
You wish you could move like this.
I has a blag.

Deciding to protect those who depend on us with a sufficient amount of life insurance protection is a responsible and caring act. Life insurance can provide those who are left behind with a lifetime of financial security.
Life insurance is an important part of a complete financial portfolio. Learning basic life insurance facts will help you make an informed decision about the type and the amount of life insurance that you need.
When you buy life insurance, you enter into a contract with an insurance company that promises to provide your beneficiaries with a certain amount of money upon your death. In return, you make periodic payments, called premiums. The premium amount is based on factors such as your age, gender, medical history, and the dollar amount of life insurance you purchase.
In the event of your passing, life insurance provides money directly to your beneficiaries. They can use the money for whatever they want, such as:
- Making up for your lost income
- Funding a child's education
- Paying off household debt
- Paying for your funeral and other related expenses
Certain types of life insurance may provide benefits for you and your family while you're still living. For example, permanent life insurance offers a cash value component, which can be put to good use during your lifetime.
Your income can be considered your family's most valuable asset. Your income is used to obtain the necessities of life and provide for life's comforts. The need for that income continues, whether or not you're here to provide it. The following situations signal a need to consider purchasing life insurance.
The following situations signal a need to consider purchasing life insurance.
- You have a spouse, domestic partner, children, and/or an aging parent or disabled relative—and your retirement pension and savings are not enough to insure your dependents' future
- You have a sizable estate.
- You own a business.
Carefully chosen life insurance can help loved ones maintain their standard of living after your death.
Several types of life insurance are available to meet your needs. There are two main categories of life insurance: term insurance and permanent insurance.
Term life insurance offers protection for your loved ones for a specified period of time—usually from one to 20 years. If you stop paying premiums, the insurance stops. Term policies pay benefits if you die during the period covered by the policy; but they do not build cash value. If you want life insurance for a limited time—long enough to meet your anticipated responsibilities to those who depend on you—term life insurance may be right for you. A breadwinner might, for example, buy a term policy that matches the length of a home's mortgage. Premiums for term insurance are often higher as you get older.
Term life insurance snapshot:
- Easy to understand
- Affordable way to get maximum coverage
- Increases in cost after the specified period
- Builds no cash value
Permanent life insurance policies do not expire; they are intended to protect your loved ones permanently. Some types of these policies accumulate cash value, although they should not be purchased solely for that use, since their primary purpose is to provide protection. Permanent life insurance policies have variations. Your insurance agent can provide you with specific details to help you choose the policy that best serves your needs. If you value added security, flexibility, cash value and lifetime coverage, some form of permanent life insurance may be right for you.
Permanent life insurance snapshot:
- Protection for life, as long as you pay your premiums
- Can build equity in the form of a cash value
- Offers flexibility and many options to choose from
- Initially higher premiums than term life insurance, but more cost-effective in the long run
Term and Permanent life together. Don't think that you're limited to one or the other; you may find that a combination of term and permanent life meets your needs best.
For example, the foundation of your life insurance plan could be permanent life, supplemented by term life during your family-building, mortgage-paying years when coverage needs are typically higher.
There are many ways to determine how much life insurance you may need. Many of these determinations depend on your personal situation and preferences toward retirement and lifestyle. Perhaps you, like many people, want enough life insurance to make sure your family can continue to live their current lifestyle after your death. If the primary purpose of life insurance is to provide annual income for your loved ones, the insurance amount will, ideally, be enough to replace what you would have earned until the age at which you would have retired.
Your goal should be to develop a life insurance plan (through one or more policies) that, following your death, compensates for the loss of your economic contribution. Here are two ways to determine how much life insurance you may need.
One method often used is to calculate Replacement Income Need, sometimes called Human Life Value. This is a well-established method to determining the financial contribution you can expect to make to your family from now until you would retire. It's more than just replacing your income; Human Life Value takes into account everything you provide for your family, including:
- Salary
- Benefits/health insurance
- 401(k) and retirement savings
- Personal services you perform for your family, such as child care, cooking, home maintenance, etc.
- Less, your personal consumption—annual spending on personal needs, such as food, clothing, entertainment, etc.
The chart below illustrates the amount of money that would be needed to replace lifetime earnings and household contribution at various ages and income levels. Find the age and income nearest yours to get a rough estimate of how much money would be needed in the event of your unforeseen death. Note, there are several financial assumptions already taken into consideration with these estimates.
This chart represents the amount of money you would need to receive today in order to replace a lifetime of earned income. Annual Income Age $25,000 $50,000 $100,000 30 $619,030 $1,152,684 $2,219,951 35 $542,769 $1,010,680 $1,946,472 40 $462,771 $861,719 $1,659,593 45 $378,854 $705,460 $1,358,654 50 $290,826 $541,544 $1,042,965 55 $198,482 $369,590 $711,806
Human Life Value Assumptions:
- Human Life Value amounts are adjusted for present value, assuming a 5% annual investment rate of return
- Annual salary increases of 4%
- Tax rate of 25%
- Annual personal consumption valued at $10,000
- Annual services at home valued at $5,000
- Annual fringe benefits valued at $8,000
- Earned income stops at age 65
Another approach used in the financial services industry is called the Survivor Needs Analysis. This approach is based on replacing an amount of income needed for your surviving spouse and children to maintain a desired level of income and lifestyle. Your survivors' needs are then compared to their assets, existing life insurance and income sources to determine any additional life insurance requirements. This approach incorporates a vast array of financial data, relying on a number of assumptions.
Remember, the specific amount of life insurance you need to protect your loved ones depends on many factors—assumed rate of return on investments, future interest rates, inflation assumptions, future earnings, and future expenses. An insurance professional or financial advisor can help you determine an accurate figure and choose appropriate coverage.
Once you have determined your life insurance objectives, speak to a qualified insurance professional to design the appropriate coverage for you. To ensure that you choose a good advisor, ask friends and colleagues for personal recommendations. To narrow your search, ask the following:
Is the insurance company financially secure? Does it have a good claim payment history, good customer service, and competitive prices? Independent companies such as Standard & Poor's, A.M. Best, Moody's, and Fitch rate insurance companies, and provide information on their financial solvency..
Your state insurance department and the Better Business Bureau can provide valuable information on finding a good insurance company. Before buying any life insurance product, be sure to read the policy carefully and get clear answers to all of your questions.
Here are some ways you can lower your premiums and save money in the long run:
Buy it now. Premiums for the same coverage increase the older you become. And the longer you wait, the more you risk developing a health condition that could increase your premium further.
If you want permanent life but you're on a budget, consider some term for now. You can save money initially by buying some term life in combination with permanent life. Then later, if your budget increases, consider converting the term policy to permanent life.
Consider group life insurance offered through your employer. This form of life insurance coverage, known as group insurance, is generally less expensive than comparable plans offered to individuals. You can obtain coverage up to a certain level without providing evidence of good health, and group insurance plans typically provide for continued coverage during periods of disability. Most plans are administered through payroll deduction, a very convenient way to pay for coverage. Keep in mind that your group coverage may end or become more expensive when you leave your job. Some plans allow you to continue your coverage after you leave simply by continuing your premium payments or converting your coverage to an individual policy.
Look for a guaranteed renewable policy if you buy term insurance. That way you won't have to shop for a new policy (with higher premiums) when you're older, nor will you have to pay more if your health deteriorates. Keep in mind, guaranteed renewable policies can be complicated. Your insurance professional or financial advisor can help you fully understand these products.
Carefully consider additional riders, which are optional forms of coverage, and make sure you really need them.
Shop around and compare coverage, and company quality. Consider getting more than one quote on comparable policies, and ask questions about the policy's renewal and withdrawal provisions.
Regardless of what kind of insurance you purchase, keep in mind that most insurance policies contain exclusions, limitations, reductions of benefits and terms for keeping them in force. Your representative can provide you with costs and complete details.
Tax-Deferred Cash Values. Some types of permanent life insurance build cash value over time. Your policy's cash value grows on a tax-deferred basis. Tax deferred means that you do not pay taxes on the cash value accumulation. This benefit allows you to maximize the growth potential of your policy when paying additional premiums in the earlier years of your life.
Access to Funds. The cash value earned on a permanent life insurance policy can be withdrawn or borrowed against to help with big-ticket items, such as a college education or down payment on a home. As long as your policy remains in force, i.e., you've paid the policy premiums, you can generally access the cash value on a tax-free basis during your lifetime. Of course, withdrawals and/or loans and unpaid interest on loans will reduce the death benefit (i.e., the amount paid when the person insured under the policy dies).
Direct Payment of Death Benefit. Life insurance benefits are generally not subject to income tax. These benefits can go directly to your beneficiaries without going through probate.
Life insurance proceeds can be used to pay funeral expenses and estate taxes without liquidating other assets. Keep this in mind when you review your life insurance and other financial plans. Check with a financial planner or tax professional to find out how recent and proposed changes to estate tax laws may affect your financial plans.
If you currently have a life insurance policy, it's a good idea to review it every few years to make sure it still meets you needs. Check to make sure all beneficiaries and other information are current. Do any of the "ifs" below pertain to you? If so, it might be time to speak with your representative.
If you…
- Were recently married or divorced
- Have a child or grandchild who was recently born or adopted
- Provide care or financial help to a child or parent
- Want to ensure that financial resources are available to provide assistance or long-term care for a loved one
- Purchased a new home recently
- Have children or grandchildren who are about to enter college
- Refinanced your home mortgage in the past six months
- Receive an inheritance
- Retired or your spouse has retired
- Have started a business
You can trade or replace an existing policy, but you should think carefully before you do. Whether you switch policies within the same company or switch from one company to another, your new policy would be subject to new underwriting, which may affect how much you have to pay. For example, premium rates are partly based on age, so a new policy is likely to be more expensive. Changes in your health—or the way the new insurer takes your health into account—can also affect your premium.
You may lose some or all of the cash value in your current policy if you switch. Also, there is normally a new "contestability period" during which the insurer can cancel the policy and refuse to pay death benefits if information on the application was materially incomplete or misleading.
If you're planning to increase your total life insurance, it's generally better to keep your old policy and increase its face amount if you can, or simply add a new policy.
Suppose, for example, that you currently have $250,000 worth of life insurance and your new objective is to have $500,000. It may be better to keep the existing $250,000 policy and buy a second $250,000 policy to total $500,000. Your existing policy premiums will generally be less than those for the new policy because you bought it when you were younger, and you won't lose any existing cash value. Be sure to ask your insurance professional or financial advisor about the best alternative for your specific situation.

LOL!! I have been in touch with demolition experts and his companies via emails which have confirmed that Brent Blanchard has been involved in many demolitions with well over 20 years experience and look what you posted
I told you to check because I had already done so, but you failed to do so and the rest is now history. BTW, the demolition process involves many people, so is it any wonder why I have stated that claims of 911 conspiracist are based on pure ignorance?
I have conveyed the message to you that demolition experts around the world look up to Brent Blanchard for advice and detailed information on demolitions, but unfortunately, you failed to place the pieces of the puzzle in their proper places. You don't become one of the world's top demolition experts by watching TV or reading articles on the Internet; you have to have many years of experience to become a world leader in demolition implosions.
What do you do when you feel there is more information that cannot be found on the Internet? I've learned to contact people and companies over the years when I want to find out more about a particular story and I even invited you to do the same but you failed to do so. You didn't even understand the significance of what I have been conveying, especially in regards to Brent Blanchard and implosion.com.
You know the old story; "You reap what you sow."

April Jeanette Mendez (born March 19, 1987) is an American professional wrestler. She works for WWE under the ring name AJ Lee, where she is the current WWE Divas Champion.
Before signing with WWE, Mendez performed for several Northeast-based independent promotions as Miss April, including Women Superstars Uncensored (WSU), where she held the WSU Tag Team Championship once.
After signing with WWE in 2009, AJ was part of the third season of NXT in 2010, placing third in the competition. In 2012, after being involved in several relationships with wrestlers feuding over the WWE Championship and World Heavyweight Championship (CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler, John Cena and Kane) while also being Raw General Manager for almost three months, AJ was named WWE's "Diva of the Year". At thePayback pay-per-view in June 2013, AJ won her first WWE Divas Championship by defeating her former best friend Kaitlyn.
A self-professed "nerd" and "tomboy", WWE adapted Mendez's comics and video game fandom to her on-screen character, endorsing her as different from the typical women in the WWE and promoting her as the "Geek Goddess.
Early life[edit]
Mendez grew up in Union City, New Jersey, describing her family's experience as having to live in motels and other people's houses.Mendez cited her brother's interest in WWE when they were children as an influence on her eventual decision to break into the male-dominated world of wrestling, and she cemented her ambition to pursue a professional wrestling career when she was twelve years old. Inspired by the female WWE stars that came before her, Mendez worked several jobs after graduating from high school (including being a janitor at day care, a cashier and a secretary at a fitness center) in order to save up the money she needed to both support herfamily and enroll in wrestling school.
Mendez attended New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in New York City where she majored in film and television production, and writing, until family and financial issues led to herdropping out six months into her studies. As a tribute to her brother who was in the Army, Mendez previously wore camouflage wrestling attire.

The story and characters were solid.
The book was narrated well, but the story lacked real substance. The books in this trilogy should have been just one big book.
I only buy the kindle version ($5.50) so I can then buy the audible version for $3. It's a fairly easy way to get an audio book for under $10.

Feeding a baby is a messy business. Liquefied rice, vegetables and fruit are just begging to be smeared around. Once your child discovers how to blow raspberries with her tongue, you are likely to be sprayed, repeatedly, with carrots, followed promptly with a huge grin.
A high chair isn't going to make your child a more civilized diner. It can, however, safely contain her during mealtime. Feeding seats, whether traditional high chairs or portable boosters, have come a long way since we were kids, says Paula Motte, senior editor at Babycenter.com.
"Designers are getting really great at intuitive, smart design," Motte said. Chair patterns now go beyond ponies and giraffes, she said, to fit more seamlessly into the design of your home, with sleek styling and modern fabrics in solid bold or neutral colors. Some models have a simple foot pedal to raise or lower the seat height, depending on who is feeding the baby, Motte said.
"People are looking for versatility," Motte said. "Anything that makes life easier."
Buying tips
Babycenter.com has an illustrated guide to shopping for high chairs on its website.
• Be space thrifty. Consider a folding model if your home or dining area is small. High chairs are bulky and take up valuable real estate, whereas folding chairs can be stored in a closet or corner. Some collapse with a click of a button and can be stowed without being propped up.
• A booster seat that straps to a chair can take the place of a full-size high chair. They're great options for traveling with baby, but you can also use them as your high chair at home, Motte said. Many have removable trays and three-or five-point harnesses and are safe for young babies.
• Think long term. Your baby will move quickly from gumming soupy rice cereal to eating mashed peas to dumping a bowl of spaghetti on his tray (or head). Shop for a high chair or booster that can grow with your child, Motte said. Some convertible models go from a reclining high chair suitable for infants to a seat you can pull up to the table to a booster seat for older children.
Safety tips
• Always use all of the restraining straps and locking devices. Make sure the harness is fastened as soon as you put your child in the chair; don't unfasten the straps until you take her out, the Consumer Product Safety Commission says. Secure any wheel locks. If you have a folding model, be sure it is locked in the open position each time you set up the chair.
• Never leave your child unattended in the high chair, particularly if he is able to unbuckle the straps, according to commission.
• Placement matters. Place the high chair far enough away from tables, counters, walls and other surfaces that a child could use to push off and tip the chair or scoot it across the floor.
Care tips
• Clean it after each use. You're likely to find crumbs and sticky residue everywhere from the tray down to the footrest. After each use, wipe the high chair or booster with a damp cloth, Motte said. If necessary, use a mild soap or dish detergent to remove stubborn dirt.
• Sanitize the tray in the dishwasher. If your high chair comes with a removable tray or tray liner, run it through the dishwasher daily to keep it clean and germ-free.

text: I use Canson and Fabriano papers, and experiment with other brands. Even cheap papers may give good results. I found Fabriano more stain-proof than Canson, but this highly depends on how you size the paper. I always use 3% gelatin solution for sizing and harden dry sheets in chrome or potassium alum solution. I sometimes repeat the process. It's likely simplest and cheapest method and produces good and reliable results. Regardless of how good is your sizing, some pigments in combination with certain papers always produce stains. You can eliminate such pairs by experimenting and recording your results.

When you're perusing row upon row of books offered by the many fine booksellers who spread their wares, new and used, before a page-hungry public, you turn your head to the side. Reading titles on spines requires it. And thus, at the end of Lit Fest weekend, I always feel a little crick in my neck, from hours of curious head-tilting.
Don Quixote tilted at windmills. I tilt - my head, that is - at Lit Fest. Maybe you have to be a dreamer to understand.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Joel firstname.lastname@example.com After months of shifting, rebuilding, and renovating, the Wal-Mart Supercenter in Morrow will reveal the fruits of its labor. Today, starting at 8 a.m., Wal-Mart will host a grand re-opening of its store on Jonesboro Road. Twenty-year associates of the store will participate in a ribbon-cutting with entertainment provided by the Clayton State University cheerleading squad and the Morrow High School Reserves Officers' Training Corps (ROTC). Shoppers will have a chance to see the efforts to which Wal-Mart has gone to make the store easier to navigate and use, including wider aisles, lowered shelving, a more open pharmacy, and an expanded electronics section. Dan Fagan, manager of the Morrow Wal-Mart, said the store has gone to great lengths to cater more to its female shoppers. The store has identified them as the core of its customer base. "The entire store has been remodeled from top to bottom," said Fagan. "Our average customer here is female, so it is much easier for her to navigate the store and find what she needs," he added. Fagan said the average woman is a few inches shorter than a man, so the entire store's profile has been lowered to bring products and advertising closer to the average woman's line of sight. He said the fixtures and signage of the store also have been replaced to make items easier to find. Daniel Morales, a spokesperson for Wal-Mart stores in the Southeast, would not discuss the cost of the renovations, but said they are the result of customer research. "We've really taken a hard look at who shops in our stores," said Morales. "One of the things that we've seen is that this store is heavily shopped by female shoppers. We want to make sure the store flows to their needs and shopping patterns. "That line of sight is very important," said Morales. "We want to make sure that we have that open feeling in our stores, and that they can see all the way back." Fagan said that in addition to new signage, the store has added a larger home furnishings section, high-efficiency toilets, urinals, and sinks, and "strategically placed" benches around the store to accommodate elderly shoppers. "Generally, we just made the store less cluttered," said Fagan. "The grand re-opening is a signal to a customer that the inconvenience we put them through [during] the remodel ... that it's over with. They can get back to shopping as normal."

COLUMBIA CITY — A few weeks ago, April 8 to be exact, Whitley County resident and long-time farmer, Bill Barney observed his 90th birthday — that in itself is worth celebrating.
However, when you talk to Barney, it's not so much about birthday celebrations and farm life that he details with precision, but rather, the events that took place 68 years ago — the bombing of Nagasaki, Japan Aug. 9, 1945, and the eventual end to World War II.
As a soldier in his early 20s, Barney was one of nine crewmen who participated in the Nagasaki mission.
SOUTH WHITLEY — Spring weather means lawn mowing, landscaping and yard work of all kinds.
Some South Whitley residents questioned town council members as to the correct procedure in disposing of yard waste.
"We need to cut our grass and clean up limbs," said a homeowner present at Tuesday's meeting. "Now that we have these trash containers, we don't know what to do with our grass clippings."
COLUMBIA CITY — "It is rare for me to come in and say entirely positive things about my client."
Those were the comments of Whitley County Public Defender Brad Voelz at the sentencing hearing for Christopher Padgett, who pleaded guilty to burglary, a Class B felony, last month.
Voelz made his comments in his testimony on Padgett's behalf while awaiting sentencing from Circuit Court Judge James Heuer. Heuer handed down a six-year sentence for Padgett.
COLUMBIA CITY — Citizens interested in the future of aquatics in Columbia City will have a chance to give their opinion next week.
Park Director Mark Green said there will be a public forum to discuss the future of aquatics, both in Columbia City and Whitley County, Tuesday at 7 p.m. at City Hall in the Columbia City Common Council Chamber on the second floor.
Much of this discussion sprang from last year's announcement that Burnworth Memorial Pool will be holding its last season in the summer of 2014, before it is closed.
(May 17, 2013) — A special feature highlighting Performing Arts at Churubusco, Columbia City and Whitko High Schools is inserted in today's paper. This full-color publication depicts the arts during the 2012-13 school year.
New York-based classical guitarist Peter Fletcher will be performing at the Peabody Public Library's Robert E. Brittain Memorial Auditorium at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
The concert is free and open to the public.
This concert is part of a nationwide tour, right after a highly regarded appearance in New York at Weill Recital Hall of Carnegie Hall.
Major works will include the Bach Chaconne and Suite Compostelana by the Catalan composer Federico Mompou.
Whole Health Wellness Center will have its first Planting Day Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m. at 1065 West CR 150 N., Columbia City.
There will be a ribbon-cutting with Columbia City Mayor Ryan Daniel at 2 p.m. Activities will include planting in the community garden and learning about large- and small-scale composting.
Children's garden planting will start at 2:30 p.m.
Whole Health Wellness Center is a new organization created by and for the people of Columbia City.
The center's mission is to establish community gardens and improve overall health.
Whitley on the Move will put on its Spring Spruce-Up in South Whitley Saturday from 8 to 10 a.m.
Volunteers are asked to join in and help pick up around the town. To participate, citizens need to show up at the bandstand on Front Street at 8 a.m. with work gloves, a trash bag or two, and, if possible, a push broom or rake.
To suggest a specific area to be cleaned up May 18, call Darci Kessie at 723-6128 or Julia Robinson at 723-4637.
COLUMBIA CITY — Emma Nicodemus is no stranger to the Whitley County 4-H program.
Nicodemus grew up watching her older cousins Tanner, Colin, Ethan and Aly Nicodemus participate in 4-H.
Nicodemus is the daughter of Steve and Amy Nicodemus. She attends Coesse Elementary School where she is in the fifth grade.
Her projects for the year include pigs and feeder calves.
Growing up around her cousins and their animals, Nicodemus wanted to join 4-H because of her cousins. She said she likes to do whatever her cousins are doing.

I would like to react sorbitol (sugar alcohol) with HCl 5% in a reactor under the following conditions: Temperature = 140 - 160 °C Retention time = 30 - 40 minutes pH actual mixed raw material = 0.4 - 0.5 Conductivity mixed raw material = 220 ms/cm The reactor will be heated by coil or steam jacket. What material of construction do you suggest to build the reactor? Where we can buy it?
Have an insight or suggestion?
Brian Dalder Forum Moderator 180 Posts
Re: What MOC is suitable for running reactions containing 5% hydrochloric acid?11 November 2010 at 1:29pmThere are not many choices for materials of construction that are suitable for running reactions containing 5% hydrochloric acid at 140 to 160 °C. Running the reaction in a glass reactor or a glass-lined reactor would be the obvious choices. If a metallic alloy is preferred, the only one I can think of that would work is tantalum. The corrosion resistance of tantalum is very similar to glass. Unfortunately, tantalum is very expensive. I am sorry but it is our policy not to make recommendations regarding specific suppliers or manufacturers of equipment. If you don't know where to start, an Internet search should get you some answers pretty quickly.

Well, I guess I would call myself comfortable in my own skin. I'm looking to get a lot out of life. I love a lot of things and like to add to the list of things tried whenever I can. I love to learn and experience new things. I aspire to many things, I suppose that can be summed up by just saying that I want to maximize my gifts and my time on this rock. I'm blessed that I have an opportunity to make an impact in peoples lives, even if small I take that very seriously. Its part of the reason I do what I do. Humor is important to me. I laugh at myself all the time, few things are taboo. I love getting outdoors and being active, as well as the cultural and artistic sides of life. Een though I have little talent remaining in the artistic field. I suppose that what I'm looking for is someone with a sense of humor and at least a little sense of adventure. Not afraid to try something new or make a mistake. A lifelong learner, and enjoys that. Someone who has an opinion, something to say, even if it is my polar opposite. Fun, can't over state the importance of having fun.

Alright, let's see if I can avoid being a...
Alright, let's see if I can avoid being a walking cliche on here .... I'm a walking contradiction. I'll go from listening to hard rock and rap one minute, to painfully embarrassing songs on my I-Pod that I'll claim an "ex girlfriend downloaded" the next. I'll go from drinking whisky, playing sports, and doing whatever it is men do one day, to reading, writing my next book, or trying on heels the next. I'm not supposed to admit that until the third date am I? Ah well. Moving on… I can't seduce you by telling you I box, play guitar, or rock climb. But I can slap a guy with the back of my hand pretty hard when I'm angry, play a mean guitar on rock bank, and successfully get up a mountain on a ski lift, so I think it balances out. I'll save a baby on a Monday, and leave my grandmother stranded for the first beautiful girl I see on a Tuesday. Ok, kidding. I don't save babies. But I am truly sorry grandma. I'll watch anything on HBO, AMC, or Showtime, watch reality television, and sometimes even get sucked into those Kardashians. But can you blame me with that beautiful rear end? I mean, damn. Bruce must work out! Random vacations, last second road trips, mindlessly bar-hopping around the city on a random day, and trying anything I've never done before will always get me excited. I'm open-minded and love people that can bring something new to the table, whether it's physical or intellectual. As much as I do love staying active, sometimes being indoors with the right person can be just as great, if not better. Whether watching some television, playing some board games, or just acting ridiculous, being with the right person is always a fun time. So who is my ideal woman? Intelligent, down to earth, always open to new experiences, and have a great sense of humor. I love women that get excited about the smallest things in life. With all this said, at this point in my life I've had a ton of great experiences, but am ready for the next phase of my life with the right partner. The question is, are you that person? P.S.. If you think we are a match and prefer to just skip to texting, feel free to shoot me your number. That works for me, I get pretty busy for this site sometimes.
