Pronounced: CAR-mus-teen
Classification: Alkylating Agent
Carmustine exerts its anti-cancer affect by a process called alkylation. Alkylation damages the DNA of cells, which prevents them from dividing, and causes them to die. Since cancer cells, in general, divide faster and with less error correcting than healthy cells, cancer cells are more sensitive to this damage.
Carmustine is most often given through intravenous (into a vein) infusion. The dosage depends on the person's size and the tumor type being treated. It can be given as a single dose or divided doses over a number of weeks and can be given alone or with other drugs.
Carmustine also comes in the form of a wafer (called Gliadel wafer), which is placed into a surgical cavity after the removal of a brain tumor. The medication remains in the area around the wafer, therefore these patients are not at risk for the following side effects.
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of Carmustine. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
White blood cells (WBC) are important for fighting infection. While receiving treatment, your WBC count can drop, putting you at a higher risk of getting an infection. You should let your doctor or nurse know right away if you have a fever (temperature greater than 100.4 F), sore throat or cold, shortness of breath, cough, burning with urination, or a sore that doesn't heal.
Tips to preventing infection:
For more suggestions, read the Neutropenia Tip Sheet.
Your red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the tissues in your body. When the red cell count is low, you may feel tired or weak. You should let your doctor or nurse know if you experience any shortness of breath, difficulty breathing or pain in your chest. If the count gets too low, you may receive a blood transfusion. Read the anemia tip sheet for more information.
Platelets help your blood clot, so when the count is low you are at a higher risk of bleeding. Let your doctor or nurse know if you have any excess bruising or bleeding, including nosebleeds, bleeding gums or blood in your urine or stool. If your platelet count becomes too low, you may receive a transfusion of platelets.
Read the thrombocytopenia tip sheet for more information.
Take anti-nausea medications as prescribed. If you continue to have nausea or vomiting, notify your doctor or nurse so they can help you manage this side effect. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms. Read the Nausea & Vomiting Tip Sheet for more suggestions.
Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.
Your fingernails/toenails may become dark, brittle or fall off. You may notice dry skin or changes in the color or tone of your skin. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun, which can result in severe sunburn or rash. Sun sensitivity can last even after chemotherapy is completed. Avoid the sun between 10-2pm, when it is strongest. Wear sunscreen (at least SPF 15) everyday; wear sunglasses and long sleeves/pants to protect your skin. Keep your fingernails and toenails clean and dry. You may use nail polish, but do not wear fake nails. Notify your doctor or nurse if any nails fall off. For more suggestions, read the Nail and Skin Care Tip Sheet.
This drug can affect your reproductive system, resulting in the menstrual cycle or sperm production becoming irregular or stopping permanently. Women may experience menopausal effects including hot flashes and vaginal dryness – read more about coping with vaginal dryness. In addition, the desire for sex may decrease during treatment.
Exposure of an unborn child to this medication could cause birth defects, so you should not become pregnant or father a child while on this medication. Effective birth control is necessary during treatment, even if your menstrual cycle stops or you believe your sperm is affected. You may want to consider sperm banking or egg harvesting if you may wish to have a child in the future. Discuss these options with your oncology team. See OncoLink's section on sexuality for helpful tips for dealing with these side effects.
Carmustine may cause serious pulmonary fibrosis (a scarring and stiffening of the lung tissue), particularly when high doses have been received. These problems can develop months to years after treatment is completed and may be more common in people with pre-existing lung conditions. You may have breathing tests (pulmonary function tests) performed periodically. Call your physician right away if you have shortness of breath, cough, wheezing or difficulty breathing.
Your doctor may order some blood tests to check your liver function. Call your doctor or nurse immediately if you have abdominal pain, if you pass dark urine, or if your skin or the white of your eyes become jaundiced (yellow in color).
Your doctor may order blood tests to check your kidney function. Try to drink at least 6-8 glasses of fluid a day. Call your doctor or nurse if you don't urinate for more than 12 hours.

Rated 2.8 out of 5Â by 38 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5Â by goldengirl ehhhh First off, I am a long time free people supporter and enthusiast. Ill give you a quick rundown... 1. it seems to fit the iphone 4 8 gig best. 2. the reproduction of this case is a low quality one. the print almost seems less impactful because of the cheap printing/reproduction job as well as the cheap plastic material. 3. It is not a hard hard plastic case. Yes you can call it plastic but it almost feels like it was a blend of plastic and cardboard. 4. Due to the above mentioned, the item then feels overpriced. I purchased the orange geometric. print is shown in picture accurately. but again appears less awesome due to quality. if i was on it, i would return this item. Instead ill eat the money and use the case with a bit of disappointment and continue my efforts to find another cool one to replace it. 5.29.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by LLepore Super cute but expected a little more for the pric Bought this today in my local store. Couldn't not buy it they were just SO cute. I bought the flowers and absolutely loved the pattern but I have to say if I could have I would have bought them all. Definitely a very tough decision. They are made of hard plastic and fully cover the left and right side of the phone. The top is exposed but the left and right corners along with a small part near the headphone hole and the hold button are covered. Same goes with the bottom. The only bad thing I have to say about this is that I expected a little more safety from it for my phone. It's just a regular snap on case that you can order from amazon for pretty cheap. You're definitely paying for the design but when they're that cute who can complain?! 5.9.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Shoeaddict33 As pictured I purchased the "lotus flower" case and was super excited when it came in. It's exactly as pictured and very sleek. I see a lot of customer's reviews saying theirs wasn't what they expected or that it broke easily, but I disagree. Its described as a hard shell case and that's exactly what ya get. I've had mine for a couple weeks now and it's holding up just fine, including a scary drop onto pavement! It didn't crack one bit and protected my phone perfectly. I'll be ordering more colors soon! I hope they start carrying the softer flexible cases in these prints because I prefer that style better(it has more of a grip to it and its a little thicker) but otherwise I'm super happy with it! 1.29.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by angelina1004 Very Disappointed Received the "silver optic" case for Christmas and was SO excited to use it on my phone because of how cute it was, and how much I loved the pattern. Unfortunately it started to crack at the edges within a week of use (and I am very gentle with my phone) and more cracks appear by the day, I feel like it's going to snap soon. I also wish for the price it had a bumper, I'm very worried about protecting my screen. Overal VERY cute case, but might not be worth the money. 1.27.2013
Rated 1 out of 5Â by caitlinm dissapointed I asked for this phone case for Christmas and was BEYOND excited because it is super cute. However it has cracked in three places and the thing is... I didn't even drop it! It is very poor quality and cheaply made. I either want a refund or a new one. I'm sad because I wanted to have a nice case when I went back to school but now I have one that looks like I have had it for months, but really I have only had it for 2 weeks! Don't waste your money on this. 1.11.2013
Rated 1 out of 5Â by jayce811 I went through two cases I got this case this past summer and within two weeks, it had cracked. I got another and that cracked too within a couple days. It was really unfortunate because they're super cute (plus it was a wasted $60)! Just terrible quality. I don't recommend :/ 9.18.2012
Rated 2 out of 5Â by laurajut ick a couple of these are very cute however the quality is absolutely terrible. its next to impossible to get off of your phone without doing some sort of damage to it because its so thin. i accepted that and never took it off and even still it had cracks all over it and eventually a part of the side just popped off. i really doubt that it even would do much protection when it fell either. 6.28.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by katytarika LOVE (but a few flaws!) I ordered the light pink and teal case a few weeks ago, and although I was a little surprised at the color (it looks like a very light white pink in the picture), I still absolutely loved the design on the case. The only problem at first was that after just a week the color on the edges of the case began to wear off-- don't know if this is going to progressively worsen as I have it? And as I was trying to clean my iPhone the other day I realized the case is stuck on. I've tried prying it but it has a really tight grip on two of the corners that makes it nearly impossible to get off without accidentally chipping the edges of the phone. Not sure if this is a flaw in the design or just in my case, but be warned! Slightly disappointed in FP on charging $28 for a $5 case, but I guess the design is definitely worth it in how cute and unique it is. 5.29.2012

Wedding Thank-You Note DOs and DON'Ts
Wedding Thank-You Note DOs and DON'Ts
After months of wedding planning, the whirlwind wedding day, and a romantic honeymoon, writing thank-you notes couldn't be less appealing. Showing appreciation for the family and friends who made your nuptials so special, however, is not only a DO—it's a must! Here's how to send a wedding thank-you note that's every bit as perfect (and appropriate) as your big day itself.SEE MORE
Wedding Thank-You Note Etiquette: DO be timely.Tardiness is the easiest blunder to make when writing thank-yous. "Send a thank-you note within two months after the wedding," says Ellen Lubin-Sherman, etiquette guru and author of The Essentials of Fabulous. "If your deadline seems overwhelming, make the process easier by divvying up your notes into a daily to-do number per day. (Hooray for crossing that off your list each night.)
Wedding Thank-You Note Etiquette: DON'T say thanks digitally."Don't email or text a thank-you for a wedding gift," says Melinda Morris, owner of Lion in the Sun, a custom paperie in Brooklyn, N.Y. "Handwrite no matter how imperfect you think your handwriting is." Lubin-Sherman agrees: "A thank-you note requires stationery, a stamp, and a trip to the mailbox."
Wedding Thank-You Note Etiquette: DON'T be too formal."Don't forget to be conversational in your response," says Lubin-Sherman. Another big no-no: DON'T use formal titles in your note. Lubin-Sherman's nephew sent her a thank-you note in which he referred to "Mrs. Sherman." "What an impersonal mistake!"
Photo: CN Digital Studio
Wedding Thank-You Note Etiquette: DON'T mention the amount of the present in your note.Refrain from referring to the value of the gift in your thank-you note. "Whether it's $20 or $2,000, both gifts are to be appreciated," says Lubin-Sherman. "A lovely way to acknowledge a monetary gift is to say, 'Both of us are grateful for your generosity and thoughtfulness.'"
Wedding Thank-You Note Etiquette: DO include personal details.Your guests picked a personal gift for you, so don't send an insincere, canned response. Specificity will do the trick, says Morris. "State what they gave you, why you love it, and how you use it," she says. "For example, say, 'Thank you for the blender. Now we'll be making margaritas regularly!'"
Photo: CN Digital Studio
Wedding Thank-You Note Etiquette: DON'T forget to include thanks for guests' time and effort.You'll remember to mention the wedding gift, but Morris adds, "Don't forget to acknowledge all gifts including ones of time, energy, and commitment to wedding planning." Aren't those usually the most meaningful?
Wedding Thank-You Note Etiquette: DO go above and beyond.Morris recommends including snapshots from the wedding of the people you are thanking. "It is a really thoughtful personal touch," she says. "Of course, everyone likes pictures of the bride and groom, but it is also nice to send photos of the attendees so they have personal memories from the wedding."
Photo: CN Digital Studio
Wedding Thank-You Note Etiquette: DO share the experience with your groom."This is one of your first tasks as a married couple, so do it together," says Lubin-Sherman. "Have the bride write the thank-you notes to the groom's family and vice versa to show your interest for your new family." Getting through the gigantic pile of thank-yous is overwhelming, yes, but having your guy at your side makes it more doable.

MATC investigation into racial slur clears instructor
A Milwaukee Area Technical College investigation into how a racial slur became attached to the name of a student within the college's course-management system has ruled out the person the student alleged was involved: her instructor.
The student, 27-year-old Erica Hughes, who is African American, filed a complaint with the college's human resource department after a she took an online test at an MATC lab in West Allis on Feb. 7 and saw the two-word slur attached to her name. Hughes said she suspected her instructor.
The investigation determined the racial slur was entered into the user profile field in Hughes' account on Jan. 31, from a guest wireless network at the West Allis campus. At that time, Hughes' instructor was logged on through a wired connection at the Mequon campus, according to MATC. »Read Full Article
Union blasts Gov. Scott Walker's boost in school aid
Madison - Gov. Scott Walker's proposal to increase funding for voucher and public charter schools as well as his plan to create a new stream of funding to allow special-needs children to attend private schools drew immediate criticism Sunday from the state's largest teacher union, public school advocates and a major disability rights group.
According to funding proposals unveiled by the governor's office Sunday, Walker is making money available that could be used as incentive payments for teachers and schools based on how well schools perform on state report cards.
Walker will propose a modest increase - roughly 1% - in funding for Wisconsin public schools in his budget to the Legislature on Wednesday, two years after his steep cuts and all but elimination of collective bargaining for teachers sparked the unsuccessful movement to recall Walker from office. »Read Full Article

February is crucial for Milwaukee Public Schools open-enrollment hustle
For a Milwaukee parent like Doria Thomas-Hamilton, February opens a world of choice over where to educate her son - and the difficult decisions of navigating the competitive open enrollment system in Milwaukee Public Schools that leaves few children walking to their neighborhood schools.
"I want what is academically going to prepare him for college," Thomas-Hamilton said during an open house for Carmen High School's new campus on the northwest side. "I also like the tutoring Carmen offers. It's important that your child has that support and doesn't fall behind."
Continuing until Friday, students and families have the opportunity to attend open houses at prospective schools, talk to staff, students and parent volunteers and test each school's atmosphere to see what will be the best fit. »Read Full Article

Bad River Chippewa could have say in Gogebic iron ore mine
The future of an iron ore mine in northern Wisconsin could be influenced by an American Indian tribe that opposes the project and recently received authority from the federal government to regulate water pollution on and off the reservation.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approved a request by the Bad River Chippewa in 2011 to set water quality standards for the nearly 125,000-acre reservation on the shore of Lake Superior.
This new power also lets the tribe dictate pollution limits on others outside the reservation that could harm tribal rivers such as the Bad River, and streams and wetlands. »Read Full Article

Tuesday primary features 2 Milwaukee County Board races
Seven candidates competing for two vacancies on the Milwaukee County Board in Tuesday's primary hold differing views on how best to reform county government, but at least six said they would serve if the pay is cut in half.
Board reform and the pay cut issue have come to the forefront through legislation sponsored by freshman state Rep. Joe Sanfelippo (R-West Allis), a former county supervisor. His bill calls for a binding referendum next year on cutting supervisor pay from nearly $51,000 to about $24,000, effective in 2016.
All three candidates competing for the District 17 seat formerly held by Sanfelippo said they would serve if the pay were lowered. »Read Full Article

Quasimondo's 'Robot Cabaret' still needs some debugging
Imagine a future in which robots rule, having reduced humans to second-class citizens with whom they rarely interact. Or, if you'd like, think about how fully our own lives are now enmeshed in technology - often reducing us to machine-obsessed zombies.
That world is in full bloom in "Robot Cabaret," which the Quasimondo Milwaukee Physical Theatre opened - wryly enough - on Valentine's Day.
The ingenious conceit driving "Cabaret" - written and directed by Brian Rott and Michael Guthrie - is the creation of a space in which robots and humans can intermingle, shedding the animosities that divide them in the dystopian world beyond the doors. »Read Full Article

Paul Ryan discusses immigration on 'This Week'
Washington - Republicans and Democrats alike, including U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), predicted Sunday that President Barack Obama would fail if he pushed forward with his own effort to overhaul the nation's immigration system and urged the administration to hold off while lawmakers work on a bipartisan measure.
Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona predicted the administration's efforts, leaked to the media Saturday night, would come up short if the White House went forward with a proposal to put the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants in the United States on a long pathway to citizenship.
Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, who met with Obama last week, urged his allies in the administration to give a bipartisan group of eight lawmakers time to hammer out a deal. »Read Full Article

I'm not saying that it is newbie friendly nor PVP-free, just saying that you're misguided.

As for Goonswarm they're the very definiton of being an annoyance, that's the very image they want to portray so no problems there. This is based from the activities of the alliance whenever I encountered them and not just the publicity stunts they pull from time to time.
As for Hullkgeddon, the prizes are just icing on the cake for the rest, I've talked to a few participants of the contest and they all say they don't really expect to win the prizes, they just like to have a solid reason to go after miners/industirals.
Also thank you for just validating every other response saying Eve is not newbiew friendly or PVP-free as that is one the reasons for the very topic. One of us defintiely has misguided ideas on Eve and based from your comment's it's definitely not me.
Sadly, in your desperate attempt to twist game mechanics to suit your case, your post makes no sense whatsoever.
To make it clear:
EVE is FFA PVP - you can indeed be attacked anywhere and anytime outside of station. However, there are plenty of mechanics and ways that allow you very effectively avoid any PVP.
You can play the game for years and never ever be engaged by other player.

perp has way better and more fun combat mechanics. that's the main reason i am not into eve anymore besides that i played it for years :P
also i find that in perp the stuff you can do is more accessible as a lot of the features eve has to offer are an endless fizzle and require insane traveling. eve is basically full of unneeded complicated mechanic like looting/salvaging is just a pain. especially after i tried to get back into eve after playing perp for a few months i just got annoyed quite a lot by these kind of things.
but surely eve is feature richer overall due to their dev team size and the time it's been around. anyhow perp is advancing quite fine as well :)
I have no need to twist anything, you yourself just confirmed what can/will happen in Eve. I'm sorry you feel offended and think if I'm putting Eve down. (Im not, it's a good game for certain player sets. I played it for 3 years), I'm just pointing it out on this topic of what a new player to EVE what to expect. The mere fact that is open PVP mean you will be engaged at some point whether you like it or not. (either getting can flipped, have your mission scanned down and looted, or have yourself suicide ganked while hauling goods in Hi-sec)
As for your claim of you can play for years without getting harassed or engaged, I'd prefer you cite some real examples instead of posting generalizations. (If you had said "play for months w/o getting engaged" that'd be a bit more realistic)
Do Stay on the topic at least instead of making poorly veiled personal attacks
Why are you doing so then?
I am not offended by your attempts that are supposedly putting the game down, I have no issue with people not liking the game, I am just correcting your misconceptions.
At the end I guess that austere description of game mechanics is the right way to do it with awareness that some people get false impression about the game.
I do realise I might be considered a biittervet since the recent happenings. I am posting the stuff because they've either had it happen to me or saw it happen while traveling.
If you want to correct any misconceptions do focus it on the new player and not a former player.
As I said earlier cite examples that provide an alternative to mine (a Different POV, Naturally it should be able to be researched for the newbie :) ) so that the new player can judge for himself if he want to play or not.
Whether you claim yourself a vet or new player has no bearing on (in)validity of your statement.
There is not much I can add apart from reminding a saying that goes around EVE:
If you lose a ship, it is 100% your fault.

i would say that, if you have a high SP eve character, stay on eve, but if you don't, then try the trials of both and play whichever one you like the best!
and, just because i have to say something when i see it, don't be afraid of being griefed in eve. you can play for years and never get griefed. (of course if you go looking for trouble, you can find it in your first 10 minutes if you're so inclined)

I play EVE so I'm probably more biased toward it, but I have tried PO and it just never drew me in like EVE.
In terms of fun, I find flying in space much more enjoyable and different than the other 99.9% of the MMOs on the market that involve around walking/running on a planet. I'm not a huge Mech fan so that probably doesn't help.
EVE has been around for many more years and has a much larger dev team so naturally they have much more stuff to do.
As far as the playerbase goes, I would bet that Jita alone has a higher population than all of PO. Small populations do not make a bad game though, it is just more noticeable during slow periods.
PO is very similar to EVE in some ways so the learning curve is similar at times. As mentioned earlier, EVE has been around a lot longer and has many more things to do than PO so there is much more to learn in EVE and a lot more people who have been playing EVE for years who sometimes forget that they were noobs once.
As witnessed in this thread, some people will try to scare you aware from EVE by making it sound much less forgiving than it is. The truth is, every MMO has some form of griefing in it and some way to avoid it. If you ignore all the indicators around you and try to play EVE like no one else can have an impact on your game play then you will be in for a rude awakening, but if you pay even a small amount of attention to what is happening around you, most bad situations can be avoided.
Both games offer a free trial so there really is no reason not to try both.

Old eve player (biomassed my guy in 2009)/forumwarrior here.
For the PO/Eve players, my biggest complaint about EVE is everyone is a giant puss, and afraid to fight cause it hurts too much. So you get this constant lopsided gank-fights, blobs, or just have to sit around waiting for enough people to log in to do anything in nulsec. Similar in PO?
Here is a a mechanics question, my second biggest complaint and constant suggestion to the eve community was the ability for large groups of players ( when they aren't lagged to frack) was having dozens of people lock onto a single target. I always enivsioned a dice roll for multiple target aquisitions to help mitigate insta-pops followed up by a skill tree etc, so that if say 15 people locked you only 3-4 would get it on the first try. ANything like this in PO?

The game tries to break the blob up a bit. Not saying it does break the blob up totally. Also there is explosion damage from bots and mechs blowing up around you. This also encurages the blob to spread out.
I hope this helps you out a bit.
From what Eve vets have described to me in game. Perp has far more entertaining mining and combat mechanincs, and the distinct advantage that the game is new, meaning that there isnt hundreds of thousands of other players so far ahead of you in terms of bank and skill ect.
So also like being a part of and watching a game develop.
Downside of Perp compared to eve is that the community is TINY, theres not a ton of life markets are not a viable source of income, and other low player base related issues.
Its a shame more people dont activly play this game.
Oh, and for the blob pvp mechanics, theres a few built in remedies to that. First is terrain and cover, meaning the blob will need a clear shot..if everyone goes missle launcher wich bypasses LOS issues there are builds to defend well against those attacks. Theres a lot of CC related mechanics which involve resetting enemy target locks forcing them to re-target ect.
and my favorite
aoe death explosions.
kill one guy in that "blob" of robots and watch the domino effect happen. One robot blows up killing a nearby wounded robot causing it to blow up, both explosions kill a nearby half health robot, the combined 3 explosions blow up the next 10 robots at 75% health and the combined explosion damage now kill anyone who isnt 100% and heavy armor ect.
Being in a blob is very dangerous in this game.
Really the only huge downside is population, which seems to be an issue only more people can fix. Frim what i hear its a far better game at its core than eve is

One thing to remember, neither game can be appropriately sampled in a trial. You really will need 6 months to make an informed evaluation.

I am probably the only civil person on the internet.
played both, was in both of their cbt. In both cases, unless you have a lot of time on your hands and your head up your ass, dont bother with either.
I'd say perpetuum has much better "pick up and play" ability, and a much more interesting environment, if you're into that kind of thing.
I'd say EVE has a much better established player-run society/economy. Perpetuum needs more time and honestly more players before that becomes interesting.
Gameplay mechanics wise, they are pretty much the same.
Generally though, unless you have no idea what the difference is between a video game and real life, you wont find either game much fun for more than 1 month. The people I know who love perpetuum/eve severely confuse the two, and think that the things that happen in the game are actually epic, and that other players posses actual true power, and actually believe their leaders could run real countries etc. So, like I said, you got to have your head up your ass to fall for those games the way they were intending you to.

How to Preserve Trust Rights
PACA Licensees may preserve their trust rights by giving notice to the debtor on the invoice. A licensee using this method must have the following wording, exactly as shown, on the face of the invoice:
The perishable agricultural commodities listed on this invoice are sold subject to the statutory trust authorized by section 5(c) of the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act, 1930 (7 U.S.C. 499e(c)). The seller of these commodities retains a trust claim over these commodities, all inventories of food or other products derived from these commodities, and any receivables or proceeds from the sale of these commodities until full payment is received.
Sellers not licensed under the PACA, or those licensees that do not want to include the statutory wording on their invoices may use the following method:
A written notice must be provided to the buyer and must include a statement that it is a notice of intent to preserve trust benefits, and must include the names and addresses of the seller, commission merchant, or agent, and the debtor; the date of the transaction, commodity, invoice price, payment terms, and the amount past due and unpaid. Notification must be given within 30 days from the day payment was due, or from receiving notification that a timely submitted payment was dishonored. To qualify for trust protections, terms for payment cannot exceed 30 days from the date of acceptance of the product. Payment terms other than PACA prompt payment terms (usually 10 days) must be agreed upon by the parties to the transaction in writing before entering into the transaction.

A friend of mine picked up an Imbel kit last week that needs to be demilled. I can't think of a better test for these tools than that. So I had him drop it off at my house yesterday.
If these will handle removing the barrel from the old stub without making a relief cut, they will handle anything. I will post pics and results later tonight.
please post report and photo's this will be my first fal. muttman
The barrel wrench is good to go.
The receiver wrench needs some minor tweaking. I'm sending it back to HB with a couple of recommendations. But that's what prototypes are all about.
yes I want to conferm tha same thing. I recieved some excelant suggestions to improve the tool!!! here is the plan. I am going to follow the suggestions and send the referbed tools back to him. then see how things go.
I am extreamly glad I did not send out a bunch of tools that need rework! I know you guys are glad too. soon as this first one is just riteI then will finish the rest.
yes the barrel wrenches are all done as theyt now have an OK.

I am here now at 3:30 AM and about to go out to do the corrections to the wrench I sent to 7.62X39, then catch up on other orders. the wrench will go out today for testing with 7.62X39. we should know SOON if everything is proper. I know understand the issues with the original design and believe - hope this one with be a good functional tool

Model Explains the Sinking of Bubbles in Guinness
Phil Kinnane | June 11, 2012
Before you drink your next pint of Guinness, have a close look at the bubbles in the brew, and see if they sink. Apparently they do. Now a group of scientists from the University of Limerick in Ireland (where else?) has modeled the phenomenon of sinking bubbles in Guinness beer to lend weight to this finding and provide a theoretical explanation.
The fluid flow vector and (streamlines) and
fluid fraction in a typical and an atypical pint
glass. The traditional shape is responsible for
the downward flow of gas bubbles.
Image courtesy: E. S. Benilov, C. P. Cummins,
W. T. Lee, University of Limerick, Ireland.
As reported by the BBC News site, the modeling indicates that the shape of the glass is an important factor. As the bubbles, which contain nitrogen and therefore very small, rise through the length of the glass their distance from the wall increases.
This creates a denser region of liquid beer close to the wall, which sinks, and the movement of this sinking liquid drags the small beer bubbles with it. It's a great piece of work and you can see an animation of their model of sinking bubbles, while reading their research here. Take it with you for a read the next time you go for a pint.

The vision loss is only in one eye. I guess it's not really loss so much as it is a "blurry/fuzzy" spot. I only notice it when I look from side to side, not really straight ahead, but I'm sure it will make driving a challenge. My cardiologist said to visit the eye doctor, so I guess I'll try that.
Thanks for the concern.

Ross Douma
Head Coach
Ross Douma, a native of Sanborn, Iowa, was named head coach of the Dordt College men's basketball program in March 2009.
Douma is 97-34 on the Dordt bench and led the 2011-12 and 2012-13 teams to berths at the NAIA Division II National Tournament. Both seasons the Defenders advanced to the Elite Eight Round. The 2011-12 team won the Great Plains Athletic Conference regular season crown and the 2012-13 team claimed the GPAC post-season tournament title. Douma was named the Conference Coach of the Year at the conclusion of the 2011-12 season.
The Defenders 2010-2011 team advanced to the GPAC post-season championship game in Douma's second season. Seven players have earned all-GPAC First-Team honors under Douma.
Prior to arriving at Dordt, Douma coached high school basketball for 10 years at Waukee, Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn, and Chicago Christian and compiled a 142-103 record in those 10 years. Douma's 2008 Waukee team qualified for the Class 4A Iowa High School State Tournament.
Douma served as head coach at Hartley Melvin Sanborn from 1998 to 2001 and led the Hawks to their first and only district championship in school history. While at Chicago Christian he coached the team to two 20-win seasons in 2004-05 and 2005-06 during his four-year stint at the school. His 2003-04 and 2004-05 teams at Chicago Christian earned regional titles. Douma moved to Waukee before the 2006-07 season.
He was named the District Coach of the Year in 2008 and also was selected as the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association District Coach of the Year in 2004 and 2005.
Douma served as a teacher, assistant principal, and dean of students at his previous stops and holds a bachelor of arts degree from Northwestern College in Orange City, Iowa (1995). He earned his master of arts degree from Governors State University in University Park, Illinois in 2006.
Douma was an all-state basketball player at Western Christian in Hull, Iowa, and was a member of three national tournament qualifying teams at Northwestern.

Thursday, June 5, 2014
Several years ago, the world witnessed the Arab Spring. Fueled by a fervor for change, mobilized and united by social media, people in some Arab countries took steps to change the government of their countries.
Well, call this the Shem Creek Spring. Mount Pleasant residents saw what in their view was a threat to the view and ambiance of their town's iconic place and scenery, and much like the citizens of those Arab countries, mobilized and united through social media to effect change. They showed up in droves at a town council meeting; they asked for background documents and up-to-date information on the issue of the proposed 55-foot-tall building/parking garage structure at the corner of Mill Street and Coleman Boulevard, and engaged with the town's elected leaders and staff to see what could be done. The Facebook group "Saving Shem Creek" quickly grew to 367 members, and then last week, the big breakthrough came. Another group, Protect Coleman Boulevard and Our Old Village Neighborhood, has over 600 members.
Late last week, Mayor Linda Page issued a statement directly to the group, and to the general public as well, saying "The developer now claims that construction of a parking facility is economically unfeasible." Her lengthy and thorough explanation, addressed to Saving Shem Creek leader Jim Owens, lays out the many issues involved with this site and the town's signed agreement with the would-be developer to provide public parking on the site. In a nutshell, the project as vaguely proposed fell off the table after the town's legal counsel advised that it was in fact subject to the new setback requirements (20 feet from all streets as opposed to 5 feet) and would not be exempt under a "civic use" allowance. There are more facets to this, but that is the gist of it.
Mayor Page pointed out that the developer has not submitted a final plan or design for the structure and that the developer may proceed with building something that meets the town's existing requirements. Her message states, "It is our understanding, and this is not confirmed, that if the developer cannot move forward with a parking facility/office building they will move forward with development of an office building."
We will never know what might have happened along the way if private citizens like Jim Owens, former Councilman Jimmy Bagwell and others hadn't mobilized and begun disseminating information to other concerned citizens.
No one should infer any bad intent on the part of any of our elected officials on this.
In fact, Jim Owens laid down the law in the Saving Shem Creek Facebook group that everyone must keep a civil tone. "We're interested in results, not rhetoric," he told me. Nevertheless, this episode in local governance proves once again the power of the people. Information began to flow. Elected officials began to take note, and as Ronald Reagan said, "Even if they didn't see the light, they at least felt the heat."
But to quote another great world leader, Winston Churchill, "Now, this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."
Why? As Jim Owens told me, "Nothing is going to prevent anybody from going back at this time with a plan for a 55-foot-tall structure at the site. I don't think we're totally out of the woods yet."

Agents with the 15th Circuit Drug Enforcement Unit are looking for two individuals, Walker Dwane Bone and Xavier Rashon Reed, who fled from Agents conducting an investigation into narcotics sales in the City and County of Georgetown on August 11, according to a statement issued by the Georgetown COunty Sheriffs Office.
Agents had observed three males, in a 1998 Lincoln SUV engaged in activity consistent with drug sales and numerous traffic infractions. At this time Agents attempted to stop the vehicle. The Lincoln, operated by Walker Dwane Bone (DOB 3/8/94) of 1837 Pringle Ferry Road in Georgetown, failed to stop and fled from Agents.
After travelling a short distance Bone fled on foot from the still moving vehicle. The front seat passenger, Xavier Rashon Reed (DOB 4/9/1995) of 29 Oxford Lane in Georgetown, then took control of the vehicle.
Reed crashed the Lincoln into a house at the intersection of Yadkin Ave. and Congaree Lane before attempting to run over Agents who were on foot. Reed, and another passenger, then fled the scene with the vehicle. With the help of citizens the Lincoln was tracked to Linen Lane in Georgetown where Shaquille Walker, the passenger, was arrested. Reed fled on foot through a creek and was not located.
Agents found drug paraphernalia and marijuana remnants in the vehicle as well as hand gun bullets. Walker was arrested, charged with possession of drug paraphernalia and taken to the Georgetown County Detention Center.
Warrants were obtained for both Bone and Reed and they are being actively sought by law enforcement. Anyone who knows the whereabouts of either Bone or Reed is asked to contact the 15th Circuit Drug Enforcement Unit (843-461-1661) or the Georgetown County Sheriffs office.
Due to the presence of the ammunition in the vehicle and the actions of Bone and Reed, Agents consider them possibly armed and dangerous. Citizens should avoid any contact with them.
Contact Number: 843-461-1331.

Thanks for the welcome, folks. Man, a lot has changed. To complete my hat tip, the best I can describe myself is as a "Universalist Christian Panentheist" Ha! That's a mouthful...
Jer. 23.24Can anyone hide himself in secret places, So I shall not see him?" says the LORD; " Do I not fill heaven and earth?" says the LORD.
Eph. 4.6There is one God who is father of all, over all, through all and within you all.
Luke 17:21nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you."
Wouldn't Panentheism be pretty much a foundational principle to even fundamentalist Christianity? Considering...that God is omnipresent...?
Quote from: Lefein on October 23, 2010, 06:18:01 PMWouldn't Panentheism be pretty much a foundational principle to even fundamentalist Christianity? Considering...that God is omnipresent...? Well, actually, many fundies LOVE to separate God from creation. That way they can separate God and themselves (eternally) from the problem of Hell. If (as Paul says to PAGANS ) "In Him we live and move and have our being" then that means - hell has it's existence in God. Which is a no-no to fundies who want to forget their "lost loved ones" who are (in their perception) outside of God.
OK, another label in the new religion.What is a UCP or is it CUP as firstborn888 noted?

Hospital Birthing..Top 5 ThingsTags: None
1. get a doula
2. inform yourself of medication options and when you want them
3. if you do not like your nurse ask for another..yes you can!!!
4. pick out a cool birthing tank to wear so you do not have to wear the hospital attire
5. bring your favorite pillow
Also learn more about the hospital you are going to. Some hospitals won't call your doctor- and you are stuck with who ever is there- and they might not mesh with what you want. Have a backup plan if that happens. Don't be afraid to speak up, and encourage your partner or doula to speak up FOR you!
1. Comfy shoes/slippers - I ended up with a LOOONG labor and standing on a concrete floor for hours (I couldnt stand sitting) was very hard on my feet.
2. Music
3. TENS machine - A god send for my birth.
4. Be very specific about what you want to happen ONCE baby is born..... I wish I had longer immediately after the birth to hold and feed before he was whisked off to be weighed and all that, they can do that later.
5. Chap Stick/Lip Gloss - all that breathing had my lips very dry and cracked.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, rice syrup, sugar, egg, water, and vanilla until completely blended. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients; fold in the chocolate and nuts. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour or as long as overnight.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto the baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake until light golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through.
Cool cookies on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Chill the dough thoroughly; overnight lends a tender texture and mellow flavor, but an hour or so will do.

Asbjorn from ESS sent some very nasty letters threatening Bimmerboost with legal action over revealing issues with the supercharged stroker motor. Frankly, we do not understand why Asbjorn is doing this as it is completely beneath any professional company and far more could be accomplished by taking the higher road as one would expect the head of a large BMW aftermarket company to do. BimmerBoost does not condone these actions and finds them offensive and unprofessional. No company should say they would take pleasure in hurting anyone.
Here is what Asbjorn@ESS sent:
The response stated that our sources have given us different information than what has been posted around the web on the subject. Asbjorn would send another e-mail shortly after:
This is simply deplorable. Stating one would take pleasure in hurting a person and their family is not how professional companies operate in the United States. They may not have the First Amendment in Norway, but we sure have it in the United States, and BimmerBoost will not be bullied or intimidated by ESS or anyone else for that matter.
We realize that AJ likely sent these e-mails in the heat of the moment which is why the response was one that dismissed the idle threats:
Asbjorn once again responded with threats:
After this nothing was received for a few days until today, January 2, 2011 when Asbjorn sent another e-mail. His tone was completely different in this one and clearly he realized he made a mistake and attempted to play nice asking to bury the hatchet and move on. The tone expressed here by AJ is one much more in line with what one would expect. Addtionally, we commend Asbjorn on wanting to mend fences and do what is best for ESS and BimmerBoost. We would like nothing more than to do so and thank Asbjorn on the compliments paid to Bimmerboost:
The points raised were addressed and here is part of the response:
We were more than willing to mend any fences and take the higher ground rather than lob threats and insults but Asbjorn@ESS reverted back to his previous form after I thought we came to an understanding:
Now, we simply have had enough of these threats and insults. This is beneath ESS and BimmerBoost is not going to be pushed around into doing what ESS wants us to do. They can threaten, yell, scream, or even try to play nice for an e-mail or two.
We have nothing against ESS. We honestly do wish ESS the best and will continue to give the products fair and equal coverage on the front page and throughout the forum. We intend to do what is best for BMW enthusiasts.
BimmerBoost would like to be the first to extend its hand in friendship despite the threats and insults. We feel this type of behavior from ESS does not do BimmerBoost or ESS any good. We think it needs to stop and we can all be far more productive using this energy to support one another instead of threatening to bring someone else down and taking pleasure in it. We should help one another and start the year off positively, certainly not like this.
In an effort to make sure we report the most accurate information possible, we will take Robert Collins up on his invitation to take a look at the stroker and the parts as well as his $100 incentive in doing so. We will take pictures and report back exactly what we learn. That is as fair as we can possibly be and it is being done on their terms. It is as simple as that and we wish all parties involved in this the best. It is high time for this all to come to an end and if we have to be the ones to set the precedent on cordial communication and interaction, so be it.

The TRDA Business Innovation Center, located within the Florida Tech Research Park at Melbourne International Airport, helps start-up technology companies in Central Florida grow into financially viable, freestanding, high-growth companies.
By bringing together a wide range of business resources under one roof, the Center offers a dynamic climate that encourages entrepreneurial success. Graduate companies have the potential to create high-value jobs, commercialize new technologies, attract local and national capital investment and strengthen the economy.
Companies are afforded a quality environment with hands-on assistance needed to grow and prosper. Resources include access to modern office space, shared office resources, business services, investment capital and more.
The TRDA was established by the Florida Legislature in 1987 as an Independent Special District. It is served by a five-member board of directors, appointed by the Governor.
The key to TRDA's success has been partnerships with numerous local, state and federal agencies, as well as with the private sector, to generate tens of millions of dollars in funding to support education and economic-development initiatives. During the past 18 years, TRDA has chartered an aggressive course in making technology work for America.
Small business is the backbone of America's economy. But getting started can be challenging for many entrepreneurs, who face numerous hurdles during the first few years of operations. Indeed, about half of start-ups fail to make it beyond five years, according to the U.S. Small Business Administration. This is where the TRDA comes in, with a team of experts who work tirelessly to nurture new small businesses toward long-term success.
TRDA is led by Executive Director Chester J. Straub, Jr.

text: Here's the new design with a few changes made. The mag well has been shortened and radiased so the rifle can be tilted forward and cleaned like normal and the mag well has been angled. Also the grip area and rear mag well block have been modified to except stock AR and aftermarket trigger guards. Working on different variations and getting the prints made up if anyone wants them.
