We looked at several ride on toys for a 1 year old grandson. This one was $8.00 plus tax etc. It arrived in a box ready to assemble. Attach 4 wheels and the handle and is ready to go. The decals are easy to apply. Grandson loves it. Is the right size for a 1 year old. Is comparable or equal to toys costing 40 to 50 dollars. No bells or whistles, just a simple toy to ride on.
Trust me when I tell you this is garbage it's garbage.
Wow this isn't even worth $5.00
I bought this for my 2 year old and she couldn't even sit on it.
It was so low to the ground...up to my ankle...
I was going to send this back to get my $13 but I had already put the wheels on it and the stickers so either I give it to someone who has a 6 month old or throw it in the garbage....this was a $13 waste of money.....
I bought this for my grand daughter who turned 2.This product holds up very well to the use she needs and to her 10 month old brother..low to the ground so falling off is not an issue,easily rolls.she loves it..I recommend this for children 1-3..
the storage in the seat is great, little ones like to 'hide' things
You get your moneys worth. It's cute and is a $14. toy.
as soon as my grandaughter saw the finished product, she rode it for hours. I have nothing negative to say about this product. the price was right, the delivery was timely and it is fun for my child
The bus fits their size one year and 19 months.
Thought I'd try this. Pros: price, small size is good for inside house; Cons: Toddler's legs are too long for it, doesn't steer (has to be picked up to turn). The kids outgrow toys like this fast, I guess.
Perfect for a busy little toddler. It has storage space under seat.
Great price- you have to put it together-, but its really easy. excellent value and just the right toy to make baby happy!
Someone bought this for my son for his one year old son for his birthday, he LOVED it! this is the ONLY toy out of all the toys he got that he would play with. He isnt walking yet so he would spend any spare time going back and forth in out house pushing it. Great Toy at a Great Price! This is better than a walker!
Expectations met for 18mo old.
You get what you pay for...my kids are enjoying it..so that's all that matters...:)
I ordered this online and it was much smaller and junkier than I thought it would be. But I just needed it as an extra riding toy for my grandchildren, so it serves the purpose.
Purchased for my great grandson
It worked really good the kids loved it. Every little child should have one.
he loves buses and when he saw this for the first time he was just excited. he loved it. got it for him for christmas and he still plays with with.
My one year old grandson loves this toy. It was the perfect height for him as he's been walking for a few months and is a relatively small child. The toy was easy to assemble and has been loads of fun for our little guy.
have seen it tn peson but my daughter said she loved it...

The present invention relates to electron discharge devices and more particularly to electron discharge devices in which a beam of electrons is controlled in such a way as to effect a modulation of velocity of the electrons along the beam.
The invention particularly aims at providing types of electron velocity modulated devices that are sturdy and of small size and consist of such elements that use can be made during manufacture of the methods for pumping and sealing that are customary in the art of electron discharge tubes.
The invention is explained in the following description of one special example of an embodiment shown in the appended drawings, in which:
Fig. l is a longitudinal view, partly in section, of a type of electron velocity modulating device that incorporates features of the invention;
Fig. 2 shows a section of the base of the device taken along the line 22 of Fig. 1;
Figs. 3 and 4 are plan views of two supporting and spacing elements used in the device;
Fig. 5 is a cross-section taken along the line of Fig. 1;
Fig. 6 is a cross-section taken along the line E6 of Fig. l; and
Figs. '7 and 8 are enlarged views of details of Fig. 1 showing features of the invention.
The device incorporating features of the invention and shown as an example in the drawings comprises, within an evacuated insulating bulb i, a unit for generating a beam of electrons, an oscillatory circuit and an anode, all spaced along the axis of the device. The beam generating member and the oscillatory circuit are supported and fed from a base 2 of the insulating bulb, while the anode is supported from the other end of the bulb, as is also a transmission line disposed to collect energy from the oscillatory circuit.
The beam generating structure comprises a heating filament 3 disposed within an emissive cathode l. Cathode 4 is surrounded by a concentration cylinder 5 for concentration of the electrons emitted in a beam. This concentration can be effected either simply by means of the potentials applied respectively to cathode 4, cylinder 5 and the oscillatorycircuit, or else by means of an axial magnetic field applied by outside means (not shown).
The tuned oscillatory circuit consists of two cavity resonators 6 and 'l symmetrical with the axis of the structure that have two constricted portions 8 and 9 in the axial passage of the said oscillatory circuit. This unit may consist, as
shown in the drawing and according to features of the invention, of an outer cylinder I l and three walls [2, I 3 and I l, the axial passage It! being formed by margins of these walls. A more de' tailed description of the structure of this oscillatory circuit and of a preferred type of embodiment will be given further on.
The electron beam emitted by cathode 4 is accelerated by the positive potential applied to the oscillatory circuit on its passage through the first constriction 8; the grid or multiple opening portions l5 and it delimit this constriction 8 and insure the effect of electron velocity modulation by slowing the average velocity of a certain number of electrons and accelerating the average velocity of others by a known mode of operation. The beam, in which the electrons are grouped as a result of the velocity modulation thus produced, passes through the second constriction 8 which is similarly delimited by grid or multiple opening portions H and I8 and, in the lkewise well known manner, the electrons leave there a portion of their energy which is collected in the cavity resonator l by means of a transmission line. In the embodiment of the invention shown in the drawing, this transmission line consists of a 3-wire line having the conductors located in the same plane, the middle conductor !9 passing through an opening 28 in wall 14 to form a loop 2| coupled to the resonator cavity '5 and which is delivered to an output device, the two other conductors 22 and 23 (Fig. 6) being directly secured to the outer face of this wall it. The three conductors of this transmission line issue from the insulating bulb through seals shown at 24 in Fig. 1.
The beam that issues from the oscillatory circuit strikes the anode 25 which is supported by a rod 28 in a tight seal 21. The anode may be at the same potential as the oscillatory circuit or at a higher potential or even at a potential lying between the potentials of the oscillatory circuit and of the cathode.
The oscillatory circuit is mounted on three rigid rods 28 which are soldered on collars 29 that consist, for example, of several circular are elements assembled by means of screws and nuts as shown at 30. The soldering of the rods on the collars is done with the aid of brackets as shown at 31. The collars 29 are looked around the base 2 of the insulating bulb by means of screws. The electrical connection of the oscillatory circuit is provided by these rods 28 by means of a lead-in wire 32 which passes inside of the base 2, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, through a herinetic seal into the interior, being soldered on a short length of wire or rod 33 which is itself secured, for example, by soldering, to one of the rods 28.
These rods 28 likewise support the beam gencrating unit by means of a mounting plate or spacing disc 35 of mica or other suitable insulat ing material, as shown inplan view in Fig. 3. This mica disc 36 comprises a central aperture .35 for the centering of the cathode, and openings The points for t 3 This insulating disc is made in this way and is installed, according to one feature of the invention, in such a way that the cathode is insulated from the concentration cylinder and is at the same time always centered with respect to the axis of the oscillatory circuit.
Furthermore, according to another feature, the insulation of the concentration cylinder 5 of the cathode with respect to the supporting rods 28, and of the oscillatory circuit is increased by three notches 33- cut out in the mica in such a way that the distance along the surface of the mica between the contact points 35 of rods'23 and the concentration cylinder 5 is increased. The con centration cylinder 5 is maintained in suitable spaced relation from the oscillatory circuit, for example, by means of clips 39 that secure the mica disc on the rods 28. This spacing can be adjusted during the fitting in such a way that the current of desired voltage that passes through the circuit may have the right value for the desired. operation. The feed connections of cathode t, of filament 3 and of the concentration cylinder 5 are carried through the base 2, as shown at ll) in Fig. 1.
As seen in Fig. 7 rods 5 are secured to spacing disc 3 at points 3? as by sealing and rigidly secured as by brazing to concentration cylinder 5. Rods 54% extend through disc 35 and a wire 55 connects the cylinder 5 to one of the feed connections ill. Cathode is centered in holes 35 in disc 33 and supported from the envelope as by rods 53. Rod 58 is brazed to cathode 4 and connected by wire 5i another one of the feed connections iii. Filament 3 is supported inside cathode 4 and wires 59 connect it to two other of the feed connections ii The oscillatory circuit is kept centered in the bulb l by means of the centering or aligning member of insulating or metallic material to which secu ed by screws, shown at 2. This contering member is shown in plan view in Fig. 4. It is provided, according to one feature of the invention, in such a way that the weight of the circuit and that of the base vith the other assembled elements substantially balance each other in such a way as to facilitate the operations of scaling in the entire unit. This centering member is provided so as to have a certain elasticity in the direction of the axis of the device and not to be rigid against the walls of the insulating bulb l. Thisarrangement is specially desirable on account of the weight of the cavity resonators and 7.
Connection 2% is to be kept relatively cool in order to insure the'hoidingup of seal 21, that is, in order to avoid stresses that might cause cracks alongside it in the insulating material of the bulb, for example, glass. For this purpose and according to one variation of the invention, th anode for example, of molybdenum, is made of conical shape with cooling ribs it With an anode of this shape, the cooling surface increases with approach to connection 26 and the conduction of heat diminishes. The anode 25 is jointed to connection 26 by an elbow member soldered on a little plate it that is secured to a disc 41 which has a surface substantially equal to the input surface, and this also helps the cooling. The anode 25 is screwed in this disc 41.
In order to increase the dissipation of heat and thus lower the temperature of the oscillatory circuit and of the anode, these two elements are coated with a material such as colloidal graphite which gives a surface having a high coeflicient of radiation. The insulating bulb is preferably made of hard glass in order to increase the power that can be dissipated without danger of damaging the glass, and in order to provide this bulb with a high electric resistance.
It is to be observed that the construction of the oscillatory circuit in devices that incorporate features of the invention is particularly simple and eificient. This oscillatory circuit is made of copper, for example, on account of the high conductivity and high expansion coefficient of this material. As mentioned, the body of this circuit only comprises four members, namely the cylinder ii and the three transverse walls l2, l3 and i i. Each of these walls comprises the marginal portion required for defining the axial'conduit l3. Wall [2 contains only the openings 42 for passage of the screws or rods for securing the oscillatory circuit to the supports 23. Wall 13,
according to one feature or" the invention as shown in Fig. 5, is given such a shape that it providis coupling slots between the resonant cavities i and ii in order to bring about a return of energy from the second cavity 1 to the first cavity E3 so as to enable the device to operate as a gene erator of oscillations in the known manner. Since it is necessary to have cavities 5 and I of the same natural frequency, a means for adjusting the resonance of cavity 7 is provided whenever a coupling of this kind is not suflici'ontly tight. This means consists of a wire or rod of the shape shown at 28 that is supported by a plug 19 passing through the wall i l. The natural frequency or" cavity '1 is varied by rotation of the plug it and it is thus brought to the same value as that of cavity 5. A locking screw 5 1 permits plug 49 to be held in place. However, this method of adjustment is not necessary if the slots 55 in wall [3 provide sufficiently tight coupling between the cavities 6 and l.
The outer cylinder ii is first made of normal dimensions. Then the central mymber I3 is adapted to the inside of cylinder ii in the following This member 3 is given a size slightly larger than the inside diameter of cylinder H it is cooled in liquid air and this reduces its diameter and permits it to be tted in place. It is then kept in this position by means of a. cylindrical brace until it has come back to the ambient temperature, and it then adheres firmly. to the walls of cylinder ii. Split pins (not shown) may be inserted in holes in cylinder I l to insure complete rigidity of the member l3 within the cylinder. The walls l2 and M are then put in place in the same manner, their respective spaced relation being maintained during the operation by means of suitable braces inserted and drawn through slots 53 in cylinder II.
According to another variation of the inven tion, the oscillatory circuit assembled in this way is then subjected to a series of thermal treatments in a vacuum or in a reducing or neutral atmosphere. A circuit made of copper or other metal that is heat treated in this way to a temperature close to melting point undergoes transformation that unites the points of contact of the various parts of which it consists in such a Way as to produce a structure that is practically integral. The union of the parts is almost per feet from the electrical viewpoint, even though the brazing may not be complete, and this is essential owing to the high circulation currentvalues during the operation of the assembled unit as an oscillatory circuit.
In order to provide contact at the edges of walls l2, l3 and 14, but not at their centers, these edges are made slightly concave, as shown at 52 in the drawing, Fig. 8. Hence each of the edges of walls [2, I3, and It has a peripheral groove. This measure insures in this way the shortest actual path for the high frequency currents.
It must be understood that the described type of construction may undergo numerous modifications without departing from the scope of the invention. In particular, one or more grids may be provided, for example, a control grid located between the cathode and the oscillatory circuit for the purpose of modulating the intensity of the electron beam. The electron beam generating unit may also be modified. In the oscillatory circuit it is possible to omit the grids or multiple opening passages |5--l *5 and |ll 8 and leave the axial conduit Ii without any obstruction. Furthermore, the anode structure shown in the drawing may be modified and it may be disposed in such a way as to have its cooling efiected by circulation of a refrigerant liquid either outsidecr inside the insulating bulb.
Further modifications and adaptations will hecome obvious to one skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention.

So anyone else experiencing the insomnia yet??
I had it with Kayleigh my entire last trimester.. and it's started again. I didn't go to sleep until 5am last night and felt horrible today because I literally laid on the couch and let Kayleigh watch NickJr all day. Bad mommy. :( I was just SO SO tired.
now its after 1am here and I'm just wide awake. i miiiiiiiight give Tylenol PM a try, doctor said it was safe I just have to go buy some. Does anyone know if Melatonin or SleepyTime tea is okay?? I need help!
This was tolerable when I was pregnant with my first and didnt have a child to take care of during the day.. but with a toddler that is up and ready to go go go all day long... it's damn near impossible.
any suggestions?
We've tried sex and a nice long body massage as well... i just can't seem to stay relaxed.

You have to identify the reason for the engine to lock up, pull the plugs ans see if it will turn over, also pull the starter motor and make sure that it is working and it is not locking up the drive plate.

Aside from adding more buttons and tweaking the ergonomics, there hasn't been a ton of innovation when it comes to the actual design of the computer mouse. That's part of what made Apple's announcement of its multitouch Magic Mouse so interesting, even if you couldn't see yourself using one. And judging by Microsoft's recent prototypes , multitouch rodents could become the next fad in PC peripherals.
"If the [traditional] mouse pointer is your virtual fingertip, we're giving you a virtual hand," says Dan Rosenfeld, a researcher with Microsoft's Applied Sciences Group in Redmond, WA.
Rosenfeld points out that multitouch surfaces exist for tabletops, computer monitors, and smartphones, but "there's really nothing addressing the kind of tasks that lots of people do all day long, sitting in front of a desk at a computer."
This is where Microsoft's prototypes come in. The funky designs look different than any computer mouse you've seen before, and that's the whole point - they are different. Microsoft's Articulated Mouse, for example, comes with finger rests for your thumb and index finger. Three optical sensors then track your movement in each of the two arms of the mouse and the main base.
But the question remains: Is there even a market for multitouch mice? Apple and Microsoft seem hellbent on finding out.

2. Etruscan Shrew (Suncus etruscus)
The Etruscan shrew has the smallest mass of any mammal known to mankind, weighing in at an astounding 0.063�ounces (1.8 grams). Since they are so tiny, they have a very fast metabolism, so they need to eat 1.5 to 2 times their body weight each day, which may mean as many as 25 feedings. If they are not asleep or hiding, then they are in constant motion. Their heart rate is 1,511 beats per minute! They live in warm, damp climates scattered throughout Eurasia.

Hi Sundogz,

Students assemble jigsaw puzzles in the classroom informing them about the different types of rock and the rock cycle. At a field trip site, students examine a limestone layer to find fossils and make clay models to reenact movement along a local fault. They explore and model the formation of arches, and learn the names and deposition histories of the rock layers surrounding them. Back in the classroom, a mapping activity demonstrates what causes many earthquakes: plate tectonics.

Man dies weeks after savage beating outside Chinatown nightclub
A man has died of injuries suffered when he was beaten with a baseball bat last month during an early-morning brawl downtown.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
View 3 photoszoom
Danny La, 22, clung to life for nearly a month before becoming Toronto's 49th homicide victim in 2013.
La and another friend were brutally beaten by several assailants wielding baseball bats early in the morning of Sept. 30. He was taken to hospital and put on life support, but never regained consciousness.
He and a group of friends were in Chinatown after a night out at the club, getting food at a restaurant near Spadina Ave. and Baldwin St., when the attack happened.
"This is not just a group of young men having fisticuffs. This is a vicious, vicious assault," said Det. Sgt. Pauline Gray. "The level of viciousness, the level of violence is quite shocking."
La's friend remains in hospital under doctor's care, but Gray declined to comment any further on his condition.
"I don't know if there's a vocabulary for a family that's lost a 22-year-old hard-working student who went out to a nightclub, like 22-year-old boys should be allowed to do, and didn't come home," said Gray when asked how La's family was coping with his death.
When he worked at the Adidas store at Yonge and Dundas Sts., La was known as the "Footwear King" according to his friend and then-coworker Ranjana Kaur, 21.
"He was quite a character," said Kaur. "He was a really good friend. Funny."
Kaur said he started working there in 2012, while in post-secondary school. The pair often talked about school in the break room. She said he went to George Brown College.
La and a group of friends were at Uniun nightclub on Adelaide St. on the evening of Sept. 29. There was a fight between a group of men somewhere in the area outside the nightclub.
Gray did not directly say the same groups of people were involved in both fights.
"This fight may or may not have anything to with the (later) altercation," the homicide detective said. "But there (are) not too many coincidences in my business."
Around 3:30 a.m. Sept. 30, La and his friend were standing outside the restaurant. Their group of friends wasn't with them. A group of four or five Asian males, all between the ages of 21 and 25, approached La and hit him and his friend with a weapon, according to police.
"Danny La and his friend were assaulted by this group," said Gray. "While on the ground, Mr. La and his friend were struck several times about the head and body with a weapon."
Initial police reports said the weapon was a baseball bat. Officers showed up and found La and his friend lying on the sidewalk.
Toronto police encouraged specifically members of the media with a large Chinese or Vietnamese audience to attend. Gray appealed to families to search their memories for youths returning home late last month with injuries from a fight.
"Somewhere out there there's a parent who's seen their kid come home, or their next-door neighbour's boy come home, and he's going to have injuries that you would think about from a fistfight," she said. "He's going to have cuts to his hands, cuts to his face."

Nivea's a brand that has a large amount of products designed to soften lips, but A Kiss of Smoothness Hydrating Lip Care SPF 15 is among its best options. Thanks to a formula that protects and soothes lips, this earns our highest rating on Beautypedia.
A Kiss of Smoothness Hydrating Lip Care SPF 15 comes is a standard semi-solid lip balm in a twist-up tube. Though it does contain some fragrance, the amount is minimal (it's the last ingredient on the list) and isn't likely to cause irritation.
The real strength of this lip balm is in its SPF, which is provided by an in-part avobenzone formula. That means it's broad-spectrum, protecting lips from both the sun's UVA and UVB rays. Though we recommend SPF 30 or higher for facial products (because most people don't apply them liberally enough to get full sun protection with a lower SPF), this gets high marks for its SPF 15 rating because it can be applied liberally and frequently, and at this price, it likely will be!
The rest of A Kiss of Smoothness Hydrating Lip Care SPF 15's ingredients are made up of proven emollients like castor oil, glycerin, and shea butter. We would have like to have seen a greater range of skin-conditioning and anti-irritant ingredients included, along with more antioxidants to boost the sun protection.
As it stands, though, A Kiss of Smoothness Hydrating Lip Care SPF 15 is a good and inexpensive way to moisturize and protect lips, and one we recommend!
Lightweight formula that absorbs quickly and provides long-lasting moisture that leaves lips perfectly hydrated.

Nivea At-A-Glance
Strengths: Budget-friendly; good makeup removers; a gentle scrub; some worthwhile lip balms.
Weaknesses: Several boring formulas; no products to treat breakouts or lighten skin discolorations; problematic toners; disappointing self-tanners; the anti-cellulite products are a joke.
Nivea is a globally known brand owned by Beiersdorf, the same company behind department-store brand La Prairie and drugstore mainstay Eucerin. Among those three brands, Nivea's product selection is the weakest (which isn't saying much, because none of these lines have much of anything to offer skin). For Nivea, uninspired formulas abound, presenting limited options unless you have normal to dry skin, and even those have exceptionally inelegant formulas. The enduring popularity of this line has more to do with advertising and perhaps tradition (it has been around a long time) than with what any researcher would consider state-of-the-art.
In mid-2010 Nivea re-launched most of their Visage (facial care) products on the web site drugstore.com. These products present a few well formulated, inexpensive options that are worth your attention.For more information about Nivea, owned by Beiersdorf, call (800) 227-4703 or visit www.nivea.com.
The new Beautypedia Team proudly and unequivocally maintains the commitment to help you find the best products possible for your skin. We do this by relentlessly pursuing and relying on published scientific research so you will have unbiased information on what works and what doesn't-and the sneaky ways you could be making your skin worse, not better!
The Beautypedia Team reviews all products using the same research, criteria, and objectivity, whether the product being reviewed is from Paula's Choice or another brand.
This must have been reformulated, or this is the wrong review for this product, because I'm looking at my stick of this lip balm right now and it is NOT tinted and has broad spectrum SPF 15. The ingredients listed are also wrong? This is a good lip balm, especially if you're looking for one with broad spectrum SPF that isn't overly flavored or smells like suntan lotion. Only real downside is a tiny amount of added fragrance (that you can't even smell).
Hello, and thanks for your comments - it's very possible this has been reformulated, so we will check out the new formula and adjust our review as needed!
The formula is basic, but good; it goes on like butter, leaving lips soft and moist, with a pleasant, satin sheen. I picked up this when I went to Walgreen's to get another tube Blistex's Deep Renewal, which includes CoQ10 in its formula, but found that avobenzone was no longer listed as an active ingredient for that product. Nivea's Kiss of Smoothness was on sale and does have avobenzone listed as an active ingredient.
By the way - this is now with SPF 15!

Woman charged with perjury in domestic assault caseStaff Report | December 11,2012BENNINGTON — A Harwood Hill woman is facing a felony charge of perjury after an investigator with the Bennington County State's Attorney Office said she lied during a deposition about a man she had accused of domestic assault.
Heidi E. Gardner, 41, of Bennington, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court on Monday on a felony count of perjury and a misdemeanor count of giving false information to police in order to implicate another person. Gardner pleaded innocent to the charges.
In an affidavit, Investigator Justin Niles said he was following up on the arrest of Floyd Amidon, 54, for domestic assault when he was notified on Oct. 31 that Gardner may have committed perjury during a deposition. In the deposition, taken on Oct. 29, Gardner said she had ended a relationship with Amidon on Aug. 17 and said that he had not been violent with her that day. She also denied telling a police dispatcher that Amidon choked her and prevented her from getting to the phone.
Niles said the recorded call to the Bennington police dispatcher indicated Gardner had reported an assault on Aug. 17 and told Niles a similar story on Aug. 30.
The affidavit said Amidon and Gardner discussed getting married and buying a home together during phone calls, which were recorded, made by Amidon from prison to Gardner between Oct. 10 and 27.
Gardner was released without bail on Monday but was ordered not to have contact with Amidon.MORE IN This Just In

PATEINTIEBJANIQIBYI mm 3556532 INVENTOE ./dh1eS E. Ba/lmer' 50%, 2% m, M M1 PLASTIC GOLF CLUB HEAD WITH CAVITIES THEREIN TO SOUND LIKE A WOODEN CLUB HEAD BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to controlled acoustics and more particularly to an improvement in controlling the acoustics of nonmetallic elements.
2. Description of the Prior Art For years golf club heads of the typeutilized to drive long distances and commonly referred to as woods" have been so named because they have been made out of wood material. Recently there have been efforts to make such golf club heads out of other materials in order to reduce the expense of manufacture. While golf club heads made of plastic materials have been produced which have desirable. appearance qualities as well as the capabilities of propelling golf balls substantially the same distance as the conventional wood club heads, these plastic golf club heads have produced a different sound upon striking a golf ball than is produced when a wood golf club head strikes a golf ball. This is undesirable in that golfers are accustomed to hearing the rather sharp solid high frequency sound when a conventional woodengolf club head strikes a golf ball and find the' rather dull hollow low frequency sound of the plastic head striking a golf ball disconcerting and generally undesirable. Thus, a need has arisen to provide a golf club head which has acoustical properties similar to that of the presently utilized wooden golf club head so that the sound of the golf club head made of any material striking a golf ball will simulate that of a conventional wooden golf club head striking a golf ball.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention is directed, in brief, to the provision of an impacting element, such as a golf club head having acoustical properties which tend to simulate the acoustical properties of a conventional element, such as a conventional wooden golf club head, upon engagement with an object such as a golf ball. The best mode presently contemplated for carrying out the invention is to provide, in the impacting element, a plurality of cavities, cores, openings or holes. Preferably, though not necessarily, the holes may be of different diameters, different orientations and of different depths. Also, preferably, but not necessarily, the holes are to be formed inwardly from the bottom surface of the element and open outwardly thereto so that a plate will completely cover the openings when attached to the impacting element's bottom surface.
When impacting elements, such as golf club heads, were made of molded plastic material they were'much too heavy to meet the exacting requirements of specifications established as standards. Accordingly, the elements were cored with one large core opening which when used to strike an object, such as a golf ball, an undesirable sound resulted.
By forming an impacting element such as a golf club head with a cored body in accordance with the presently disclosed best mode forcarrying out the invention, the weight of the elemeat is reduced so that it more closely approximates the weight of a conventional element, such as a wooden golf club head. Likewise, the element can be attuned to a desired sound by adjusting the orientation and/or the depths and/or diameters of the cores in the body of the element.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a top I plan view of an impacting element such as a club head of the wood" type made in accordance with this invention; v
FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of the impacting element shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a bottom plan view of the impacting element shown in FIG. I l;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the impacting element taken generally along the line 4-4 of FIG. 3; and
FIG. 5 is a rear elevational view of the impacting element shown in FIG. 1.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT An impacting element such as a golf club head 10 of this invention is of the usual configuration for the type known as a golf "wood" and has a large impacting surface or club head striking surface I2, a bottom or sole portion l4, and an angularly upwardly extending hosel 16. As shown in FIG. I, hosel 16 has a bore 18 for receiving a club shaft to connect the impacting element or head 10 to the shaft.
Impacting element or club head I0 may be of any material. The presently preferred embodiment is produced by.introducing thermoplastic material into a mold which conforms to the exterior configuration of the impacting element or club head 10 and allowing the thermoplastic material to harden or set". Preferably the material of the club head is that known by the trade name Cycolac." It has been found that this plastic material has very suitable qualities for simulating the performance of playing conditions of an impact element or a wood club head except for its weight and acoustical qualities. The Cycolac impact element or club head tends to be somewhat heavier than a wood club head of the same size and shape.
It has been found that the acoustical properties of the impacting element or club head can be improved to the extent that the engagement of the element or club head with the golf ball provides a solid high frequency sound, indistinguishable from that of the engagement of a conventional wooden club head with a golf ball, by providing two or more cavities, cores or holes in the element or club head such as is illustrated for example by the cavities 21 through 35 in FIG. 3. A sole plate can be secured over. the bottom of the club head if desired. It is believed that the provision of the cavities in the club head produces the improved acoustical characteristics in that the airspaces in thedifferent cavities will resonate at different frequencies while the webs or walls between the cavities being of different thicknesses and lengths will not resonate in sympathy with the soundresonance in the cavities to thereby prevent acoustical resonance of the element of or golf club head and an objectionable sound. Put another way, the webs or walls between the cavities are of different dimensions and resonate at lower frequencies while the sound waves in the cavities are held at a low level thereby minimizing sound propagation. The varying frequencies in the different cavities and in the webs and walls between the cavities will tend to damp each other to render the element or club head vibrationally dead.
In addition, the provision of the holes in the club head reduces the mass thereof so as to reduce the weight of the club head, thereby enabling the club head to more closely approximate a conventional wooden club head in weight so that clubs made therefrom will be able to meet specification standards set by the associations. Another advantage of providing cavities in an impacting element or club head molded of plastic material is that there is no large concentrated mass of thermoplastic material so that the molten plastic material cools and sets very fast, thereby increasing speed of production and resulting in lower production cost.
The present impacting element is designed to make use of the basic principles of sound to produce a device which will be capable of generating almost any desired sound upon striking (or being struck) by a separate member such as, for instance,
a golf ball. It is well-known, for instance, that sound travels in coming'waves to resonate at a particular frequency. Different diameter cavities will resonate at different frequencies and at different intensities (power). The material of the impacting element will have a predetermined elastic modulus which will determine'to' some extent the sound vibrations which will be propagated within the body formed from said material. Hereinabove it was mentioned that part of the sound waves traversing the cavities are reflected back into the cavity, the remaining sound waves setup resonance in the webs or walls between thehcavities which resonance will have an intensity and frequency dependent'upon the wall thickness and wall length. The webs or walls are varied so that they will not resonate in sympathy with each other or with the sound waves in the cavities. The diameters and spacing of the cavities will be such as to prevent acoustical resonance of the impacting element in such a way as to produce an objectionable sound upon impact with another device. The varying frequencies generatedwithiri the cavities and walls of the impacting element will tend to damp each other and thereby render the head vibrationally dead.
An impacting element has been made up and successfully" tested which had l5 cavities varying in diameter from .250 inches to .312 inches, having depths varying from 0.969 inches to L250 inches and being spaced from a reference point to a cavity center at distances from 0.] l0 inches to L872 inches on one axis to 0.227 inches to L314 inches on an axis transverse thereto. The resulting sound was at a solid high pitched frequency simulating almost exactly the sound v produced in hitting the same member with a solid laminated wood impacting element.
It has been found that the sound created by the impacting element canbe modified in the direction of higher frequency sounds by as few as two cavities of two different sizes. The size difference preferably goes to a difference in diameters, but it could be different depths. The sound resulting from the impacting element striking an object with two or more cavities of two or more different sizes is to create a higher frequency sound which is more desirable in many uses such as in the golf club art where a solid higher frequency sound is desired.
It has been found that different cavity sizes and with a different distributional array of the cavities will produce desirable acoustical characteristics, reduce the amount of time necessary for club heads of molten material to cool, and provide a lighter club head, the precise weight of which may be controlled by using weighted pins inserted into a few of the holes. Generally speaking, all of these desirable characteristics are obtained by providing a plurality of cavities of different sizes and of different depths in the club head.
This invention provides a means for producing a club head in a wide range of materials which will have acoustical properties of that of inventions presently utilized with golf club heads. The desired acoustical properties are imparted by forming two or more cores in the club head in two or more different sizes and in two or more different depths. As a result, club heads may be made from much less expensive material. such as thermoplastic compounds. S uch club heads may also be made in less time than that previously required for club heads made of wood laminations and the combination of reduced material expense and reducedproduction time results in a club head which may be offeredto the public at a reduced cost.
The foregoing detailed description hasbeentgiven for clearness of understanding only, and'no unnecessary limitations should be understood therefrom, as some modifications may be obvious to those skilled in the art.
l. A golf club head of plastic material molded into a configuration of a wood club head having a-hosel portion with a hollow bore and a sole portion 'atthe' bottom thereof;said head having a plurality of cavities of different depths therein; each of said cavities resonating at a different frequencyupon impact with a golf baliand beingsep'aratedby substantially vertical walls; said walls differing in thickness and len th, so that the frequencies generated within said cavities an walls will not amplify one another but will'dampen each other rendering the club head substantially vibrationally dead.

I spent 4 hours there one day last week. Didn't ride the same trail twice and didn't touch pavement until I rolled out Bambi's. First time I'd been there since 1985.
Curving, bermed singletrack interupted by bouncy rock gardens.
Genius. Pure gold.
The place should be on any rider's western slope to-do list.
Good work boyz! Swole.
It may look like the high lonesome nowhere.
Follow the path of least resistance.
Don't forget to turn.
Stinky trail names.
Maybe a few trees.
It's really not slickrock. Trust me.

By Dave Gross
In the devil-worshiping nation of Cheliax, crime is a strangely slippery concept, and those with money and power tend to make the rules. Yet when aristocrat detective Pathfinder Varian Jeggare and his devil-blooded bodyguard Radovan are drawn into a series of noble murders, it quickly becomes clear that there's more afoot than simply someone settling old scores. Add in a zealous Hellknight law-keeper with a chip on his shoulder, and not even the heroes are safe from suspicion. Can the crime-solving duo delve into the city's seedy underbelly and uncover the culprit in time to stop the murders, or will their next public appearance be writhing on the executioner's tines in the Plaza of Flowers?
From fan-favorite author Dave Gross comes a gritty mystery of death and devils, set in the award-winning world of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Originally published in the Council of Thieves Adventure Path, this novella can be read on its own or as a prequel to the novel Prince of Wolves and the short story "The Lost Pathfinder."

On the Day
If you are visiting in the summer then I strongly advise that you plan to arrive at the park around 30- 45 minutes before the published opening time. In the case of the Magic Kingdom, arrive at least 45 minutes before the ...
The Big Day!!
... a story and selected different members of the audience to put on the big screens as the characters in the story. Because of Jeremy's very long beard he was selected to be Sully. Lincoln was called out as the cutest baby. Throughout the rest of the day we were approached a few times as people recognized them from the show. Lincoln signed a few autographs for his big fans!
To say it rained would be an understatement. Torrential downpours would be a better ...
Hulk Smashed
... like Jaws or E.T. Just SpongeBob and Dora the Explorer. The only cool part that Disney didn't have was the guys on pogo sticks who were leaping insanely high into the air! That was impressive. Very tired and worn out we popped into Walmart on the way home for evening snacks and then I was in bed by nine, asleep by nine thirty. Didn't wake up till seven thirty the next day! Like I said, it had been a very busy few days and I needed some ...
Shock and Awe
... we had racked up 9501 steps. (The rest of the steps came at phase two de jour!)
We took the Kilimanjaro Safari through the wilds and saw some beautiful animals. It was lovely. A visit to the theater on Discovery Island after a scrumptious lunch at the Yeti & the Yak and saw the show "It's tough to be a bug" ... cute show - 4D effects again! Next, we used our fast passes to take on Expedition Everest - Legend of the Forbidden Mountain and the great Yeti... in fact, in ...

... Mountain roller coaster but the wait time was 115 minutes so we went to the Monsters Inc Laugh Floor show. They picked some people from the audience, put their faces on the big screen, and gave them names from the MI movies and made fun of them as part of the show. I, with my hat in 'Gomer Pyle' mode was selected and called Sully. The show was funny and better than being out in the rain.
When we entered in the morning the cast member had told us we ...
