By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
Immanuel Kant once said that, "the nice part of growing up in a small town is that even if you don't know what you are doing, someone else does." If this is true, then the future could be very bright for USU Eastern freshman Mark Swink. Because while he professes not to know where his musical career will take him, all those who have heard him sing know that the sky is the limit.
Swink, who is 18 and has lived in Price his whole life, first got involved with the guitar when he was nine years old. Since then he has grown into a veteran state and local performer whose diverse musical style has made Swink a favorite with local crowds. While it is now obvious that music is a huge part of the college freshman's life, that wasn't always the case.
"I think like most musicians, I had a difficult time with the guitar in the beginning," explained Swink. "Playing the guitar is not an easy thing at first, so when I started taking lessons it took some time to enjoy the process and after a year or so I really considered quitting."
Swink's musical career was saved at this point by a friend named Tyler Wilson who introduced the young troubadour to recording his own tracks.
"Recording really got me interested for the long haul," said Swink. "It seemed like the possibilities were endless and I could tell this was something I was going to enjoy for a long time."
Swink continued his musical work playing and singing for bands like Forensic View, a punk rock influenced crew and King of Aces with Wilson. He also picked up the bass guitar, piano and drums along the way, slowly becoming a one man recording machine.
"I really enjoyed playing in those bands when I was younger, you know it's funny, everyone in King of Aces was in college except for me," laughed Swink who was but 15 at the time. "We played some shows in Salt Lake and that was such a big deal for me, to play for people you don't know and that don't know you. It was such a great environment."
At 16, Swink began recording songs he had written himself including "Control," a song Swink still plays at local shows because of its initial and continuing popularity.
"I feel really blessed that I got to play with so many different people when I was young," he continued. "I have played with some great musicians that have always made me want to get better as a guitar player, vocalist and someone who likes to record music."
According to Swink, music has not only provided a possible career, it has proven to be a tool against the pitfalls that can take a young person's life down the wrong road in the blink of an eye.
"Music gave me something to do, something to focus on when a lot of people I knew were just getting into trouble," explained the singer-songwriter. "It's funny, when I was young I got a lot of crap from guys I knew about my music but as I got older they started respecting it. You know I tried sports for awhile but quit because I really just liked music better."
During Swink's junior year in high school he started playing larger community events like International Days and receiving lively feedback from the area's public.
"Playing on the radio with Mallery (Dunn) on KRPX for the first time was a big deal for me," explained Swink. "Its really cool because now she plays my new stuff and has let me sing live in her studio twice."
This summer, Swink hit the local festival scene with force playing at a majority of the Castle Valley's celebrations.
"I had a great time this summer, this is the third time I have played at International Days and I feel like I get a better response every time," said Swink.
Currently, the young musician has written around 20 original tunes, most of which he has made available on his Facebook page and Youtube channel.
"I have always loved writing music, lately I have been playing more covers because it's nice to have a mix in my live set but I love originals. You know it's not the daunting task most young artists think it is, in fact I track most every instrument in my songs and record a majority of them with the microphone in my ibook and the pre-loaded 'garage band' software. Right now my cousin Chris in California says he is doing what he can to get my name out with some industry producers but to tell you the truth, I'm really just excited about playing local and going to college."
Like the man said, even if Swink doesn't know where he is headed, most who have seen him play in the small town of Price know the young man is going far.

Comments about Men's Downlight® StormDown® Vest:
Another item I carried on my walk to Santiago. I didn't need it on most days so its bulk and weight wasn't a concern in my pack. At night and a few cold days it provided the warmth needed. Just knowing it was in my pack provided confidence I had a very warm layer should I be caught in cold weather.

Comments about Men's Downlight® StormDown® Vest:
I would say overall it's a nice lightweight vest. It was much lighter than expected but still provides me with what I was looking for. It's great for layering with a flannel which was what I needed. The price was too high even with it being on sale.

The feature turns out to be a surprise success. Over time, Jae-hyuk and Gina learn more about each other's past history and gradually grow closer. Just as things begin to shape up, Mira enters the picture. Mira also was part of Gina's former band and hates her to the core.

During his confirmation hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee Thursday, CIA director nominee, John Brennan (pictured), responded to questions about the procedures used by U.S. agents in interrogating suspected terrorists, saying, "I don't know what the facts are or what the truth is."
Given the rest of his testimony, that's about the most honest thing spoken by the drone assassination czar.
Over and over again, when pressed about details of the drone war and the use of the unmanned aerial vehicles in the "War on Terror," Brennan hedged, demurred, and generally evaded every question.
It's not surprising that committee members took it easy on Brennan (with the exception of a brief rat-a-tat with Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss of Georgia). After all, as was noted in Esquire, these are members of the "national-security priesthood." They are, in several signal ways, co-conspirators in the policy that has killed thousands of individuals, three of whom were Americans, none of whom was ever charged or allowed to answer any charges.
As one watched the glorified job interview, one got the feeling that the candidate knew he was a shoo-in and that the question and answers were sound and fury signifying nothing.
It was almost theatrical. It was as if the players knew their roles and were merely acting a script for the benefit of an audience who demands these constitutional pantomimes.
Take, for example, the exchange between Brennan and Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) regarding the Obama administration's assassination of American-born, Yemen-based cleric, Anwar al-Awlaki.

Rangers @ Capitals
Verizon Center, 7:00 p.m. Friday
Rangers' record: 32-26-4
Capitals' record: 32-19-10
The Rangers and the Capitals will complete the season series on Friday night in D.C. They have quite a bit in common.
The up-and-down teams will both be fighting for the two points to stay relevant, swing the pendulum to the positive end and distance themselves from the playoff picture "wannabes." Both teams have had a snake-bitten offense to contend with this season with the Rangers ranked 20th and the Capitals 19th in the league average goals scored per game. They also share an unwelcome bond with the pesky injury bug.
Marian Gaborik's status is still not clear after it was announced he suffered a concussion in an earlier game and would meet with a specialist. There's no timetable for his return.
Marc Staal might not be dressed tomorrow night either after a twisted knee injury. Good news for Alex Ovechkin. The all-star defenseman charged with shutting down the star sniper missed practice but traveled with the team.
Ruslan Fedotenko could return after separating his shoulder last month and undergoing an appendectomy. The team could use the extra grit, energy and shot blocking back in the lineup.
Capitals' big guns Nicklas Backstrom (thumb) and Mike Green (head) are expected to return to the lineup for Friday night's match according to the Washington Post.
The Rangers need to take advantage of the Caps shaky ways at home and find a way to take a commanding lead...and hold on to it. The Caps are 4-3-3 in their last ten home games and are 4-16-4 when trailing after the second period. They're coming off of a five game road trip.
The Blueshirts are 3-2 in their last five after kicking off February with a five game losing streak. They've struggled with one goal leads and deficits this season. They let the Carolina Hurricanes – who sit just below them in the Conference standings – get away with a point in the 4-3 shootout win on Tuesday where they held the lead.
Brandon Dubinsky, Artem Anisimov and Ryan Callahan will be the keys to victory. The linemates were the strongest in the injury ridden fall and will be heavily leaned upon once again in the spring playoff push. Dubinsky leads the team with 43 points. Callahan has been generating offense of late with six points in his last five games.
Backstopped by Martin Biron, the Rangers defeated the Caps 2-1 in a shootout on January 24 the last time the two teams met.
Michal Neuvirth is expected to get the nod in goal for the Caps while Henrik Lundqvist could get his sixth straight start for the Rangers.

Video: State hiring for teacher evaluations
BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Just as many school districts rushed over the past few months to complete negotiated teacher evaluation plans, the state education department also had to hire additional staff to process all those plans with some rather high salaries.
On the NYSED website you will find listings for project coordinator and starting salaries ranging from $74,000 to $77,000 to $82,000. There is also a separate listing for education specialists who would make $50 dollars per hour. These are temporary appointments with certain requirements. We are waiting for the state to tell us how many were hired and for how long. The state did get $700 Million from the federal government's Race To The Top program for teacher and principal evaluations.
At the same time the New York State School Boards Association is conducting a survey of districts around the state to see whether their costs to implement the programs actually costs more than the Education Department funding provided to them. Association spokesman David Albert says their early impression is that districts are paying more to set up the system. Albert says districts may be paying for greater accountability for teachers and principals at the same time as they must cover rising costs for pensions and health care.
Erie One Boces Superintendent Dr. Donald Olgilvie says most school districts in Erie County did opt to pool their resources and use a "network- team" approach. That way Boces staffers would be properly trained in the new system and then provide the information and their expertise to school district officials.

CARTHAGE About 11:30 a.m. Tuesday, firefighters responded to a report of black smoke filling up the cogeneration plant on West End Avenue.
The Carthage Fire Department called in aerial trucks from Lowville and the town of Watertown to help in fighting the blaze at Carthage Energy LLC, 701 West End Ave.
It was reported on the scene that the fire was electrical and originated in a gear switch.
According to Brian J. Draper, Carthage-Wilna Fire District head driver, the fire was difficult to fight since the structure is so large, and the point of origin was hard to detect through thick smoke.
Once the fire was found in the back right-hand corner of the building, it did not take firefighters long to get it under control.
Mr. Draper estimated that it took 45 minutes to an hour for the fire to be secured. He attributed the timely handling of the situation to the abundance of manpower and the assistance given by power plant employees.
Natural Bridge Fire Chief Jason P. OMeara said there had been initial concerns over whether all of the machinery had been properly shut down and whether there was any danger of power surging back into the plant from the nearby National Grid substation, where the power generated by the plant is relayed.
Mr. OMeara said there was a lot of damage to the interior of Carthage Energy.
When the firefighters were wrapping up at the scene, an explosive sound was heard and the structure was evacuated.
Edward Cousins, plant operations and maintenance manager, said the noise was caused by a ruptured disc a fail-safe where steam is released.
Mr. Cousins confirmed that the fire originated in a gear switch but could not say whether the plant would be shut down or for how long.
Robert B. Ball, village of Carthage code enforcement officer, inspected the site and found that there was no structural damage. He said that machinery had been affected by the fire and water, and that the plant is calling in a high-voltage team to assess the damage and make repairs.
Also responding to the scene were West Carthage firefighters and Black River Ambulance. No injuries were reported.
According to Times archives, Carthage Energy LLC operates its 45-megawatt facility during the summer and peak heating months in the winter, when energy demands are high.

Salt Lake Community College brought Haley Holmstead, who is the leading scorer in the nation, to town. She dropped 29 points and went 9-9 from the free-throw line. According to head coach Dave Paur, SLCC is ranked second for a reason. His team lost focus and the defense brokedown against SLCC. The Eagles sent SLCC to the line 19 times and the Bruins were able to use those chances to make 15 of those 19 shots. CEU struggled to control the ball and SLCC took advantage of the oportunities they were presented. Bruna Deichmann led the Eagles with 23 points. She hit three from beyond the arc and made both her free throws for the evening.
Her effort was intense but the rest of the team was not able to support her with double digit points. Kaylie Robison led the team with rebounds pulling down eleven.
The home crowd did little to rally their team as very few times did the BDAC ever get loud during the game. With a huge turnout it should have been easy to show support but the zeal was lacking.

If the naturopath also has the MD credential then every plan will cover them. They choose to take insurance or not, all providers have to sign up with insurance plans for reimbursement. Unfortunately if they are a Doctor of Naturopathy, without other medical credentials you will have a difficult time finding coverage. An MD typically goes through 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of Medical school, 3 years of residency and then potentially 2 - 4 years of specialty training on top of that. Not many Naturopaths go through that type of education. MDs also have to work on cadavers, some other health care practitioners do this as well, but not many. Naturopaths offer valuable services. If you have a Naturopath MD in mind, then it is simple because they will have registered with insurance companies to accept payments. They will know what plans they accept payment from. As a pharmacist one of my classmates in addition to a doctorate in pharmacy also had a doctorate in that area. As a pharmacist we are also not covered by most insurance plans to have a "practice" reimbursement. We work on a fee-for-service basis or contract with specific plans or employers to offer their people our services. We work with individuals and provide their providers the information about our consults.
Some naturopaths, dieticians, pharmacists, chiropractors, and acupuncturists work within a physician practice - this is sometimes referred to as an integrated or integrative model. The fee for a naturopath is most often "fee for service." I hope this helps, best of luck finding the practitioner you are seeking.

Recent graduates like Bira and Lenihan are part of a demographic change in graduate students. "The traditional-aged student is a shrinking population," said Jennifer Giancola (right), dean of the School for Professional Studies at St. Louis University.
In the past, a traditional graduate student was one who entered graduate school full-time after completing a bachelor's degree. Today, graduate programs see a wider range of students, from 22-year-old recent graduates to early retirees from the workforce.

- Matthew Grawitch, Ph.D. (School for Professional Studies) was quoted on ThreeStarLeadership.com about psychologically healthy workplaces.
"Engagement is about feeling mentally, physically, and emotionally present while you are completing your work tasks. Being present means you're not distracted by worries at home. Being present means you're not thinking about something else you'd rather be doing. True, your boss can have a positive impact on the engagement experience, but there are many factors that can influence 'presence.'"
- Drew Stevens, Ph.D. (School for Professional Studies) was quoted on the website Changing Minds about the importance of customer service.
The best method for creating a customer culture is hiring. It is important you recruit and hire personnel based on their customer service talents. Talent is a skill set that cannot be taught. The easiest method is looking for people who have the empathy and skill for handling customer situations. Disney and McDonald's spend inordinate sums of money and time investing in the hiring process. A strategic investment in this area will provide long-term gains, higher profits and less employee attrition.

Justice League Movie: What We Know So Far
After years of watching the Marvel Cinematic Universe slowly build into the powerhouse that it is today, now it is time for DC Comics to do the same. Teaming up with Warner Bros., the company began an incredible journey in 2013 with the release of Man of Steel, and they are currently hard at work on a follow-up, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Much like how Marvel worked towards making the first Avengers movie, however, DCs ultimate goal is to make a Justice League film and we are now well on the way to seeing that actually happened.
Just like we have with many of the other major blockbusters set to come out over the next few years, we have researched and gathered as much information about the development of the Justice League movie as we could possibly find to try and put together a picture of what we can expect from the superhero team up movie. What do we know about the film thus far? Read on to find out!
Zack SnyderAs the guy at the helm of both Man of Steel and the upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, director Zack Snyder has clearly earned the trust of the brass at DC Comics and Warner Bros., and as a result has secured his place in the future of the big screen franchise. While few official details have actually come out about Justice League, one thing that we do know is that it will be Snyder helming the film. The script for the movie is currently being written, and while we dont know the identity of the person holding the pen, presumably Snyder has a good amount of creative and story input, having played a huge role in getting the DC Cinematic Universe to the place where it is right now.
SupermanDC Comics obviously has huge plans for their future in Hollywood, but as of now they really only have one hero established: Superman. Henry Cavill made his debut in the role starring in 2013s Man of Steel, and it looks like he will be taking on the part for many years to come. He is currently in the middle of working on the follow-up, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and its pretty much impossible that a Justice League movie would be made without him involved. The Man of Tomorrow is such a key piece of the puzzle, in fact, that if rumors are true, we will be seeing Man of Steel 2 in May 2018 as well.
BatmanAfter spending years with Christopher Nolan and Christian Bales incarnation of Batman, we are now just a couple years away from seeing a whole new version of the Caped Crusader. For 2016s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, director Zack Snyder has enlisted Ben Affleck to play the new Dark Knight, and in addition to that movie, the character is then expected to show up in Justice League, rumored for 2017. Unlike the last time the character was rebooted for the big screen, this new version wont be a young Bruce Wayne just starting out on his mission to clean up Gotham, but instead will be a veteran badass inspired by the pages of Frank Millers comics from the 1980s.
Read on to find out what role Wonder Woman will play in the Justice League movie...

A mobile chicken processor that could help north country farmers expand their poultry production is expected to be in operation soon.
The North Country Regional Economic Development Council and North Country Pastured, the owner of the processor, will have a ribbon-cutting to celebrate the unit at 1 p.m. Thursday at 116 Rice Road, DeKalb Junction.
North Country Pastured was the recipient of a $130,000 state grant through the North Country Regional Economic Development Council.
Delivery of the unit took longer than expected because the company responsible for building it also makes equipment for the military, which took precedence.
North Country Pastured has estimated it could process 25,000 chickens in its first year and surpass that number in the future.

Chicago is truly a top tourist attraction with a magnificent skyline, world-class museums and the best blues music in the world.
Chicago is situated on Lake Michigan in the State of Illinois. The city is best known for the notorious period of the gangster Al Capone. In Chicago, you can visit the Sears Tower (443 metres high), which is the highest building in the United States, and the John Hancock Center, a 350-metre high skyscraper offering a panoramic view. In The Loop you will find a number of large department stores and the theatre district, with a wide choice of shows.
Chicago also has a number of interesting museums, including the Arts Institute of Chicago and the Field Museum of Natural History, where you can see the most complete skeleton of a T-rex. In the John G Shedd Aquarium, you can look at marine animals such as sea otters and penguins, in addition to many species of fish. The Union Station, the Tribune Tower and the Wrigley Building Tower are buildings that you must certainly visit for their special architecture.

Bluejays' WBB Falls at Butler, 58-52
Indianapolis, Ind. - The Creighton women's basketball team suffered a 58-52 loss at Butler on Saturday, Jan. 18.
The loss dropped the Bluejays to 11-8 on the season and 5-2 in the BIG EAST Conference. Butler, meanwhile, moved to 8-10 overall and 3-4 in conference play.
Trailing 7-2 at the first media break (15:34), Creighton appeared to rally from a slow start with a five-point burst to tie the game at 7-7. Senior McKenie Fujan pulled the Bluejays within a possession via a 10-foot jumper, after a defensive stop, junior Sammy Jensen knocked down an open three-ball to make it 7-7 with 14:56 on the clock.
Butler, however, answered with a 12-2 run to take control of the game at 19-9 at the 9:31 mark. Creighton got no closer than seven the rest of the half, going into the locker room down 34-22.
After allowing Butler to shoot 52% in the opening period (13-of-25), Creighton amped up its defensive intensity in the second period. Despite the improved defensive effort, the Bluejays still found themselves down 12 (46-34) with 7:03 remaining.
Creighton found a rhythm as the game draw to its close, scoring nine straight to make it a one possession affair with 2:37 left. Sophomore Marissa Janning started the run with two free throw, then Fujan knocked in a pull-up jumper from eight feet to make it 46-38 (4:39). Senior Alyssa Kamphaus chipped in a pair of free throw, then Fujan delivered a try from the wing, forcing a Butler timeout.
The Bulldogs responded to the break with six straight to salt the game away.
Fujan led Creighton with 16 points, while senior Sarah Nelson posted 11 points.
Butler got 16 points from Liz Stratman, 12 from Lexus Murray and 11 from Taylor Schippers.
Creighton returns to action on Saturday, Jan. 25 as the Bluejays host Marquette at 3 pm in D.J. Sokol Arena.

Lithium Ion battery problems are well documented. Specificaly, overcharging leads to a very unstable battery. The only real advantage lithium has over NiCad is its weight to power ratio. Given all of its potential faults, I would think taking a step back would be prudent. Seeing as the empty weight of the 787 is 242,000 lbs and its max TO weight is 505,000 lbs surely the weight of its batteries are insignifcent.
Ah well, just another law suit around the corner.
This is what I wonder also. The Li-ion battery that caught fire in the Boston incident was about a cubic foot in size and could be easily carried under the arm. This is the battery that supplies the APU. How many other batteries are there like this on the a/c as part of the "main ship" supply"? Even at half the weight of the safer NiCad it seems to me the weight savings would be negligible. I understand that manufacturers need to find weight savings everywhere but to take this kind of risk to save a few hundred pounds seems crazy.
lion batteries are everywhere. in laptops, cell phones, tablets, etc. i have searched the web and have found not one lion pack has exploded, caught fire, etc in the past two years. the original issue with the lion was that system designers assumed that the lion was like any other battery. so just shove a bunch of volts and amps into them and all should be fine. well, it obviously wasn't. with the advent of proper safety and charging systems, this issue is pretty much a thing of the past.
until now !! what is needed now are cool heads, like those who contribute here, examining all aspects of the issue and contributing there thoughts.
what doesn't help is the self styled experts jumping into the conversations with statements like
"Quoting sources that would speak only on the condition of anonymity"
or that the battery in the boston incident "exploded causing severe damage to the airplane"
or my favorite,
"Securaplane's main buildings were burned to the ground when a battery test went wrong"
what they don't say here is that "an investigation into that fire determined the cause was the set-up of the test, not the design of the battery or the charger."
looking at the systems in the 787, the safety circuits and the charge controllers appear to be properly designed and should be making the packs safe. so, in my mind, the issue has to be the construction of the battery pack itself.
what is different? the battery is vented overboard. is there an issue with the cell construction that caused the cell cases to expand and contract, possibly wearing away some of the insulating materials and causing a short?
when the cell is constructed, is there an air bubble between the plate and the separator that expands and contracts with changes in pressure brought about by changes in altitude, which wears a small hole in the separator, causing a short?
is it the loads of takeoff and landings, deforming the cells and again causing internal shorts? or both? or something else?
could the fix be something simple like building shelves to allow the cells to stand on end rather than on their sides so the cell cases don't flex as much? or liquid cooling systems that keep the cell temps at about 100 degrees F (37deg C)?
The main purpose of aircraft battery is to supply power to the aircraft in emergency situations. On the aircraft that I'm very familiar with, the on board battery is used to start the APU which once on line, supplies power to the aircraft. There is almost no load on the battery unless all other generator power is lost and power is required to operate the aircraft systems.
Interesting to read the comments; sounds like a classic case of cutting quality corners to meet time and cost targets. I get frustrated when I discover this in my factory ... but I'm not developing or manufacturing tin cans that carry hundreds of human lives from point A to point B! Call me naive but I'd put quality (safety) pretty high on the priority list!!!!!
What puzzles me is that there is plenty of room in the airplane, and the battery weighs only 60 odd pounds, why not use old nicad? It would be double the size and weight, but how much of a fuel penalty could that cost? I bet less than 50 planes parked in the sun.
the same reason they switch from paper manuals to iPads. Every pound counts. Every inch of space counts.
The airline business is extremely competitive, just look at the number of mergers and number that are gone broke.
Therefore, to airlines today everything is about the $ and every pound saved is a $ save or more importantly made. Airline insiders advise me that airlines prefer freight over passengers as the $ ratio to the pound is higher i.e. pounds/kilos x $per lb/kg = profits.
There is really no such thing as a standard 747; 787; AB380 etc, as each airline fits the aircraft internals to their requirements i.e. the AB380 on average is around 500 +pounds heavier than the prototypes due to changes in the video systems. Consequently every pound saves is a bonus.
What is most stupid to me (sorry, but in this case the word applies) is the apparent total lack of a 'plan B'. As far as I can tell, they put all their eggs into risky business. Anyone with power systems experience knows the problems inherent with LiON technology; we've been there, done that. Boeing is repeating history.
This again confirms my view on problems that arise when the professionals cease to act as one . Some managers at the higher level DID NOT react like professionals .And hence the current scene , at Airbus as well as at Boeing . Very Sad and very unfortunate .
Isn't this the reason USPS quit shipping electronics with Li-Ion batteries?
and they were the cause of a UPS 747-400 crashing in Dubai- and the batteries were just cargo.
mrippe, you nailed it, expsnsion/contraction, etc.
It's good enough. Go ahead and ship that battery pack, we need the billings to pay for the new plant.
the aircraft is not ready for service so pull it and then re-introduce, we do not want the emerican equivalent of BAE's comet do we?
This sort of thing is supposed to be caught in qual-testing. Apparently they only took an ideal duty cycle into account, but this is a MORE-electric aircraft, so those batteries must take a pounding.
If aircraft systems are migrating to more electric, but the electrical systems aren't being designed to take a harsher duty cycle into account, then more-electric = more-dangerous.
There are better ways of making aircraft lighter and more efficient than just turning them into a flying power sub-station, but electricity is the future, and anything not powered by the blue smoke is old-fashioned right? Well this is the result... but I'm sure they'll overcome the teething problems, except when these airplanes get old every A&P mechanic is going to need a degree in electrical engineering. Blah blah ok rant over...
Some of you old enough may recall this event in 2008...
So the "Dream" liner remains a dream!!!! At least Boeing got the name right!!!
Some smart cookie investigative reporter should look into whether Boeing ever did a full flight test regime with the 787. It's been well documented in the media for years about the ongoing problems during the development of the 787 leading to delays, cancelled orders and huge financial impact. Hypothesis: did Boeing take major short cuts to 'standard' quality testing? Additionally, the behaviour and requirements of the batteries are well known. Has Boeing under-specified the plane in this context? Finally, if yes to these questions, what other compromises to function and safety have been made in order to cut costs? The lithium battery is unlikely to be the problem here; it's EVERYTHING else that we should be worried about ... Including problems that have not yet surfaced. I'd suggest its early days for Boeing's nightmare-liner.
Check out the LOT Polish airlines 787 its en route to EPWA
If you want to keep track you can enter the registrations, eg
According to another tracking site, LOT2 is a 767-300ER. I looked at United 32 which Flightaware says is a 787 and according to the United site, it is a 777. The 787's are still grounded.
I would use these batteries in my Cessna.
would not replacing the LI-IONs with stranded battery's as used in most other Boeing aircraft, call for a full flight test regime taking months ????
NiCad batteries have a memory faction. When discharged to a given level (say 70%), the battery learns to only give-up 30% of it's charge. This must be cycled out frequently.
I have no idea as to the veracity of the following assessment, but I sent this posting to a friend who worked for a battery company supplying batteries for military application...here's his comment:
It's an interesting question, the energy density in Li-ion is significantly higher than Ni-Cad all you need to do is look at the size of cordless power tools, more powerful drills at half the size!
Li-ion needs a very careful charging regime and even then any slight imperfection in the manufacture can lead to thermal runaway. These batteries regularly let go in all sorts of applications . The other issue is that the cells are packed tight into big batteries and when high current is drawn from the battery say at APU start up and turning over engines it is virtually impossible to model the thermal prperties of the battery! The IATA organisation restricts the transportation of bulk Li ion batteries on passenger planes as bulk cargo yet Boeing has put high capacity batteries on the aircraft! Add to that the pressure differential at altitude and the soft pack Li ion cells will swell and shrink which is not good!
It will be safe in the future but if my life is on the line I would prefer ni cad!
The post I added concerning the Li-ion versus the NiCad was an off-the-cuff assessment from a former Major in the British Army who retired and went to work for a battery company as an officer in Sales in the Military Division. I'm fairly certain he has relatively reliable knowledge on this topic. I'm only guessing, of course, but I'm fairly certain comparing those batteries in a Prius or a toy airplane to a battery in a Dreamliner is apples and oranges.
Radio control model flyers use LiPo batteries ( Lithium Polymer ) for electric flying.
They charge and discharge very quickly, hence heating. When there is a problem with the
speed controller, the batteries explode in flames and the model leaves a black silhouette
on the ground!
It's hard to believe this problem with Boeing. Our technology is so advanced.
Lipo batteries have gone on fire when punctured or on rare occasions while being charged. I've never heard of a faulty speed controller directly causing a Lipo battery to ignite.What has happened is that the speed controller itself has gone on fire and this fire could spread as any fire can spread throughout the model
Well that's interesting...
What about the statistics on these batteries as they are used in hybrid cars? I haven't heard of any Prius engulfed in flames because its battery pack overheated. Maybe the problem isn't in the technology in itself, but in the specific batteries used by Boeing.
Prius's use a different type of lithium battery, can't remember what, but it's not Ion.
Correction, NiCad, not Lithium.
Priuses use Nickle metal hydride,
those can be tortured including shot and won't catch file like lithium batteries, better in every way but energy/kg.
The old 9 Volt Eveready batteries never caught fire & lasted for years. I wonder how many we'd need for a 787 ?
Just read a news report that the American and Japanese investigative team are now putting an emphasis on the battery monitoring equipment, other than the Yusa batteries.
One consideration which should be addressed (my thought), is to consider the charger source AC waveform rectification. Sampling AC and digitizing it for DC has been known to generate unwanted heat.
In the Power Industry, power generators must be designed with larger sized neutral cables as a result of the continuing increase of computer loads which require AC rectified for DC use.
Like I posted 3 days ago expansion/contraction plus the ΔP caused by altitude and landing.
Priuses use nicke metal hydride. they can be tortured, even shot and not go into thermal runaway like lithium batteries. NiMH are in my opinion better in nearly every way except energy/kg. It seems some of the articles that used to be on the web about burns fires, etc are not there. I think Nicad still has "memory issues" if left at full charge, or keep trickle charging them for months at a time you can't get the energy out unless you very carefully discharge the battery fully and then carefully recharge- even then you lose amp hours and high current capacity. There are also some environment issues with cadmium.
There in route to LAX today
Relax! Every aircraft has some deviation from the plan. Most are manageable, few go out of control, and fewer still produce a casualty.
Are we still pretending that nothing is going on?
my brother committed suicide in 2010 and his last eoisode of mania focused around his nokia phone which had caught fire suddenly when being charged, i hope he may now feel a bit better about it where ever he is
[This poster has been suspended.]
You are misusing the term "Mania", which is irrational positive enthusiasm and optimism. Acting crazy or paranoid is not "Mania".
It seems to depend on the dictionary you use. The one on my computer states mania: mental illness marked by periods of great excitement, euphoria, delusions, and overactivity. It appears many things today depend on where your research is coming from, as though they state opinions rather than fact.
Ok,the real diagnosis is named "cyclothymia" which is very dangerous because the patient has very high and very low emotional phases. During recovering from the deepest depression power is collected to end the life. Because of this hospitals try to keep patients with improving mental status inside.
Sorry this comment belongs to another posting. I do not find the way to clear the lines.
Reading this makes me more than ever determined not to fly the Nightmare-liner. Ever. If one of the batteries burnt the factory down what the hell is it doing in an airplane? Something smells about all of this...

Assessing Bills QB race after pre-season opener
Here's how the Bills pre season opener impacted the three man quarterback competition, in my humble opinion.
King Rex
Rex Ryan a big hit with Bills defense
It's the same reaction every time. Ask any defensive player on the Buffalo Bills about Rex Ryan and that player will have a huge smile on his face. Players were happy with the last two men to oversee the defense, Mike Pettine and Jim Schwartz,
Bills' EJ Manuel knows its a production league
In the Bills original master plan for EJ Manuel, he would have a firm grasp on the quarterback position entering year three in the NFL, not fighting for the starting job and perhaps even a roster spot.

It was a low key Bills draft
Memo to the Buffalo Bills: Please don't trade your first round picks anymore. It makes the draft far less interesting.
Bills' Duke Williams aiming for starting job
There won't be many starting spots up for grabs when the Bills hit training camp. There's probably just one on the defensive side of the ball and it's the safety spot opposite Aaron Williams.
Bills should draft a quarterback
Time for some free advice for Bills General Manager Doug Whaley. Draft a quarterback on Friday. There are a number of people who will tell you not to do this for various reasons.
1. This year's group of quarterbacks is underwhelming.
2. You already have four quarterbacks on your roster.
3. You don't have a first or fourth round pick so in rounds two

Sabres and Coyotes numbers are ugly
Befitting teams that are 29th and 30th in the NHL standings, the Arizona Coyotes and Buffalo Sabres have put up some horrible numbers this season.
Bills building a better offense
For years the offense has been the bane of the Buffalo Bills existence. Despite the big question mark at quarterback, the Bills offense will be better in 2015 due to big moves at other positions.

JW: All-22 Review - Playmaker Wanted
The Bills loss in Denver was the latest to highlight the fact that the Bills are lacking an elite play maker at quarterback. From the 3rd-and-1 slide, to deep shots that they don't take, the Bills offense is crying out for a quarterback that will step up and make a play.

Darry Talley's struggles hit Bills fans hard
If you were a fan of the Buffalo Bills in the late 1980's and into the 1990's, reading the story about the struggles of Darryl Talley hit you hard. REALLY hard.
Bills game turns on 3 straight plays
In the first half, the Buffalo Bills and Cleveland Browns were putting their respective fan bases to sleep. But three consecutive plays in the third quarter sent the Ralph Wilson Stadium crowd into a frenzy and the Bills on to victory.

Bills offense needs to come alive
The Buffalo Bills offense has hit the skids at a most inopportune time. Their inability to get into the end zone is the main reason why the Bills dropped back to back critical games and went from playoff contention to a team looking for a miracle.
JW: All-22
JW: All-22 Review - Bills/Chiefs
The Bills loss to the Chiefs will likely be remembered for fumbles and fourth downs. This week's All-22 review from Jeremy White will showcase the Bills success in the run game, why the Bills should #PayJerryHughesMoney, and the misfires from Kyle Orton that played into the heartbreak.
Not again! Come on Bills!
You'd think we'd be able to handle games like this since we've had so much experience with them but they get more sickening every time the Bills find a creative way to lose a crucial contest.
Bills top story lines
There are a number of interesting story lines that have emerged through the first half of the Buffalo Bills 2014 season but there's no question which story is at the top of the list.
Bills get an important win
Sure there were some exasperating moments but I feel much better after the Bills win over the New York Jets than I did after the last second victory over Minnesota one week earlier.
JW: All-22
All-22 Review Bills/Vikings - Watching Watkins
In the span of one week, Bills WR Sammy Watkins went from forgotten man, to focal point. Unleashed upon the Vikings secondary, Watkins set highs in targets, receptions, touchdowns, and yards. Watching Watkins proves to be a lot of fun in this week's All-22 Review.
Bills get miraculous win
I was coming to grips with the 2014 Bills season essentially coming to an end in week seven. Then Kyle Orton and the Bills offense produced a miracle ending.
JW: All-22
JW: All-22 Review - Bills/Patriots
The New England Patriots made a point of exploiting the Bills inabiilty to defend Rob Gronkowski. The Buffalo Bills largely ignored their budding superstar wideout. How huge was Gronk? How much was Watkins ignored? It's all part of this week's All-22 Review with Jeremy White.

Owning a car is practically a necessity in South Africa, although the government is trying in many ways to build a more accessible and reliable public transport system. Now with fuel prices at a record high and the introduction of electronic tolling of the highways around Johannesburg, owning a car is becoming more and more expensive. One of the first things people tend to sacrifice, and at great risk, is their vehicle insurance, whether by shopping around for cheaper insurance, jumping around from one insurer to the other or simply defaulting on their payments completely.
A new startup short-term insurer, King Price insurance, has found a way of differentiating itself: insurance premiums that are not only competitive but also decrease every month. They argue, "Why should your insurance premium stay the same when the value of your car is continuously decreasing?" Their latest campaign centers around the question "How do they do it?" and features a company "employee" who comes up with various absurd explanations as he tries to figure out how this insurer is able to offer low premiums that also get cheaper over time.

The second round of Enduro Series was taken place in the small resort in Val d'allos. These 2 day of racing were very exhausted because each stage reaches around 1000 meters drop. At each stage, we've got one run practice and then one run racing.
On Saturday the race is extremely downhill oriented: very fast section and less pedaling. Jey was leader on the first 2 stages in the morning. He feels good and likes this race. Unfortunately in the last stage, he got a flat after a little mistake; he lost 1'20 in the overall timing of Saturday, finishing the run on his rim. On Sunday, the stages are totally different from the previous day: much more physical, technical and extremely long (around 15'). Jerome was really motivated to catch up his late. He took the win in the first 2 stages and was the fastest of the 2nd day. The level was very high: Vouilloz finally won in front of Jared Graves and Greg Minnaar.
Jey said "Racing is not only about winning but also about giving the best you can and find your limit. Mistakes are a part of the game you have just to minimize them". Jey was proud to finish 7th at the end of the week-end and doesn't lose too much point to the overall ranking. It is a mechanical sport and Jerome is still very motivated to give his best in the next EWS in Les 2 Alpes.
Concerning the rest of the team, Pauline was regular and finishes 8th in the girl category. She lost time in Saturday because of the fast section (he was 10th) but was very much getting better on Sunday (6th of the global ranking). Ben Cruz has a hard crash at the beginning of stage 1: he fell on his back and stop the race because he doesn't feel so well. Ben's crash here.
