Hi...I am trying to identify what model my 82-83 peugeot is.. and whether I should keep it original or switch out components depending on whether or not its high-end..
Sorry..my digi camera broke, so I don't have pics right now.
The frame is entirely red with white checkerboard & lion decals. Made in France, Carbolite 103.
- Rigida wheels
- Huvet front/rear derailleur
- Peugeot brakes
I can't locate model number but a little paper on the bottom of frame seems to read 2850825 then P8 50. Another serial on frame is Y30432473. I haven't seen any styles like this bike in your posts or elsewhere on the internet. Single owner said they purchased the bike in 1984. Just wondering if I paid too much for this puppy... and if I should invest much more.

Quality triptychs like this are hard to do. I know Joanne Callis did some good work in that realm years ago.
Probably your BEST bet would be some kind of registration process and a VERY good 4 blade. The masking is the easy part really. It is getting every frame to line up that is hard.
I have heard of people using large 4 blades and 3 different enlargers. You set each easel for one image and use a registration system to move it along. You need BIG 4 blades though.

Opals are often referred to as the Queen of Gems and as nature's fireworks. They have been treasured and favoured throughout history. Queen Victoria gave opals as wedding gifts. Known as a healing stone, it is said to improve vision, bring inner piece and relaxation to the wearer.
To the Greeks this was the mother of gemstones because it is the stone that symbolizes love, passion and friendship. It has been referred to as the red fire and the king of all gems. Those who wear rubies are to live a life of peace and harmony.
Ooh la la, tres jolie! A splendor of exquisite beauty; this opulent gemstone combination is a match made in heaven. The best of both worlds was combined in this ring; fiery blue/green/purple opals explode around the strawberry red rubies which are front and center around an inferno of colors. How can you help not falling in love with this ring.
It is set on a sterling rectangular base that measures 10 x 17mm and has an outlining pink gold frame. A graceful gold petal is set at the top of the sterling shank.
Opals measure 3mm and rubies measure 2mm. Ring size 7 1/4 and resized at no additional charge. Stamped 925/375. Weighs 6.30 grams.
Thank you.

I have a 09 ram with the added maxi care warranty. The third break light is leaking water into the cab. Dealer says it's not covered under the warranty. Anyone have this problem. If this isn't covered what good is the maxi care warranty.
Read your warranty. Does it cover leaks? If the dealer won't fix it, get some gasket material and place it under your 3rd brake light. That should fix the leak. If there is a deductible, then this would be much cheaper anyway.
which max care warranty do you have?
Shouldnt be a warranty issue, its a TSB for a fix. 09-10 were/are still known for leaky third brake lights. Ask your dealer to search for recals and TSBs.

Caseless Torpedoes
View Single Post
January 4 2013, 12:28 PM
Re: Caseless Torpedoes
As for "leaving it where it was," I doubt the sensor would have done much good if they left it in a storage locker somewhere.
A sensor known to be capable of charting gaseous anomalies is in fact
of doing that unless installed inside the torpedo tube? You do realize you are making no sense...
Sulu obviously charted those anomalies without installing his sensor in one of his torpedoes. Spock would be a complete idiot if incapable of conceptualizing and executing the same.
Except... where's the torpedo, then? Invisible?
Huh? Torpedoes are always blatantly visible, as fireballs several meters across. ST6 is no exception.
The Class 1 or Class A probes are somewhat different in that their comparable fireball is distinctly around the aft part of the instrument, not all around it. But that actually makes good sense if we assume such a probe is a much larger device, with a "torpedo" grafted in its ass and glowing the normal way, but with a payload riding ahead of it.
There's nothing wrong with the idea of the coffin thing being hidden by the glare of the glowing (propulsive?) thing. Today's missiles may look like telephone poles with a trailing flame, but that's only because the flame is not particularly bright and in fact effort is made to minimize it visually. Photon torpedoes have every excuse of featuring a brighter, more engulfing flame.
After the 22nd century, photon torpedoes continue to evolve, becoming (arguably) more accurate, more sophisticated, more powerful. Spatial torpedoes, however, fall out of use, despite the apparent portability of photon warheads, despite the improved propulsion technologies (indeed, a 24th century spatial torpedo would be essentially a Class-8 probe with a tricobalt device in the warhead). So for whatever reason, Starfleet does not appear to carry straight projectile weapons anymore.
Or Starfleet drops an outdated propulsion system of projectile weapons in favor of a more modern one, namely the one dubbed "photon torpedo".
There are many upsides to considering the "photon" part as describing the propulsion element rather than, say, the warhead. But none require making the weapon "non-projectile" in nature.
I'm drawing both on backstage evidence that photon torpedoes were not originally meant to BE missile-type weapons, but a totally distinct technology similar but with slightly different properties as phasers. Physical casings made their debut in TWOK and appeared again in TUC; both times can be made consistent with the original TOS conception, and that would explain a lot of OTHER things that don't make sense about photons.
Two points of disagreement there: lack of evidence of any sort of intent on the part of the makers of TOS, one way or the other - and the obvious advantages of simply making TOS compatible with the bulk of the evidence, rather than vice versa.
Incorrect, demonstrably so from "Maquis ptII" where photon torpedoes flying past a runabout have a glowing core visibly smaller than the runabout's bussard collector.
How is that relevant? The craft firing those fireballs couldn't have carried coffin-sized projectiles anyway; ergo, whatever the craft did carry, could fit inside the fireball.
The torpedo casing should be plainly visible in front of it from at least the forward angle, if it's intended to be there at all.
Obviously not, unless the glow is somehow limited to the aft sector only. There is no particular reason to think it would be limited that way; warp engines don't glow from their aft ends only, except when the designers specifically want them to (say, the
Even the VFX artists don't seem to believe there's any PHYSICALITY to the weapon in flight
You can't claim such a thing. What they gave us is physical enough: it flies through space at finite speed, reasonably often in curved patterns. It isn't an intricate shape requiring hours of motion control work; it is an affordable fireball. But that in no way makes it "aphysical", any more than a star is aphysical.
The bright rectangle
torpedo from TMP
Umm, the elongation of the bright dot would be an optical phenomenon inherent in traditional moviemaking, not a particularly convincing argument for the shape of the glow "in reality". But it's a very nice optical phenomenon... Conveniently lending itself to some smooth retconning.
In TSFS when the Bird of Prey was arming the torpedoes the torpedo tube was glowing with static-like charges, which looked like it was building up an energy ball.
Indeed. And the sparkling continued at the point of impact, spreading over the victim. A special feature of this special weapon - but whether it's carried to the target all by itself, or riding on a physical object, we can freely speculate on.
Perhaps that's what torpedo "launchers" always do - wrap the projectile in that (propulsive?) field... Klingon wraps would of course be more coarse than Federation ones, just like their ships are dirtier, their sliding doors noisier, etc.

A Republican memo being circulated on Capitol Hill looks at the bright side of the New START agreement:
This is intended to be the final email on New START, and hopefully the final email from this desk for the year.
There will be great gnashing of teeth and rending of garments as the legacy of the Senate's New START consideration is debated, but it appears that one particular storyline deserves more attention. President Obama entered office promising to rid the world of nuclear weapons and drastically cut US missile defense capabilities, as evidenced by his Prague speech and first budget submission to the Congress cutting the missile defense program by $1.4 billion. Now, at the end of his first Congress, in the course of completing his signature foreign policy achievement, President Obama has committed his Administration to a wholesale modernization of the US nuclear complex, including improvements to warheads, facility infrastructure, and all delivery vehicles of the triad. He has also committed to deploying an extensive missile defense capability, including the placement of a missile defense system in Europe with a capability directed against ICBMs, as well as the placement of missile defense interceptors in the former Soviet client states of Poland and Romania.
With the adoption of amendment 4904 to the New START Resolution of Ratification, the President must certify prior to entry into force of the treaty that it is the policy of the United States to qualitatively and quantitatively improve the US missile defense system. This includes deployment of all four phases of his own Phased Adaptive Approach, with the last phase having a capability against ICBMs that could hold at risk the US homeland, as well as the continued development of the two-stage ground-based interceptors as a technological and strategic hedge to the PAA. The amendment further expressed the position of the United States that the deployment of these systems does not constitute a basis for questioning the effectiveness and viability of the treaty, and therefore would not give rise to circumstances justifying Russian withdrawal from the Treaty. This much more directly confronts the Russian position on the matter, when compared to the feckless unilateral statement issued by the United States at the signing of the treaty. The amendment requires the President to communicate all of this to Russia at the time of the exchange of the instruments of ratification. The amendment also provided an Understanding that the treaty preamble does not impose a legal obligation on the parties, which will be included in the instrument of ratification.
Amendment 4864 was adopted by consent to the Resolution of Ratification, which requires the President to certify prior to entry into force of the treaty that he intends to modernize or replace the triad of strategic nuclear delivery systems, namely a heavy bomber and air-launched cruise missile, an ICBM, and an SSBN and SLBM.
Amendment 4892 was adopted by consent to the Resolution of Ratification, which requires the President to certify prior to entry into force of the treaty that he intends to accelerate to the extent possible the design and engineering phase of the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Replacement (CMRR) building and the Uranium Processing Facility (UPF); and request full funding, including on a multi-year basis as appropriate, for these facilities upon completion of the design and engineering phase for such facilities.
When those two amendments are combined with the President's commitment to provide annual updates to the 1251 report concerning the budget plan to modernize the US nuclear complex, the Congress will have a substantial basis to provide the resources necessary for the President's own plan to modernize the entire US nuclear complex. Secretary Gates has made clear that this modernization is a prerequisite to any nuclear reductions.
After jamming New START through the Senate in a lame duck session where the Senate was concomitantly attending to a variety of other duties, and consequently achieving the lowest vote count ever for a ratified major arms control treaty, the Obama Administration is probably looking around wondering what is next for its nonproliferation agenda, now that CTBT is effectively off the table. It would appear incumbent upon Republicans to provide the Administration with that agenda, beginning with a focus on the true nonproliferation threats of Iran and North Korea. ...

Clean birth and postnatal care practices to reduce neonatal deaths from sepsis and tetanus: a systematic review and Delphi estimation of mortality effect

BMC Public Health 2011, 11(Suppl 3):S11 doi:10.1186/1471-2458-11-S3-S11Published: 13 April 2011
Annually over 520,000 newborns die from neonatal sepsis, and 60,000 more from tetanus. Estimates of the effect of clean birth and postnatal care practices are required for evidence-based program planning.
To review the evidence for clean birth and postnatal care practices and estimate the effect on neonatal mortality from sepsis and tetanus for the Lives Saved Tool (LiST).
We conducted a systematic review of multiple databases. Data were abstracted into standard tables and assessed by GRADE criteria. Where appropriate, meta-analyses were undertaken. For interventions with low quality evidence but a strong GRADE recommendation, a Delphi process was conducted.
Low quality evidence supports a reduction in all-cause neonatal mortality (19% (95% c.i. 1–34%)), cord infection (30% (95% c.i. 20–39%)) and neonatal tetanus (49% (95% c.i. 35–62%)) with birth attendant handwashing. Very low quality evidence supports a reduction in neonatal tetanus mortality with a clean birth surface (93% (95% c.i. 77-100%)) and no relationship between a clean perineum and tetanus. Low quality evidence supports a reduction of neonatal tetanus with facility birth (68% (95% c.i. 47-88%). No relationship was found between birth place and cord infections or sepsis mortality. For postnatal clean practices, all-cause mortality is reduced with chlorhexidine cord applications in the first 24 hours of life (34% (95% c.i. 5–54%, moderate quality evidence) and antimicrobial cord applications (63% (95% c.i. 41–86%, low quality evidence). One study of postnatal maternal handwashing reported reductions in all-cause mortality (44% (95% c.i. 18–62%)) and cord infection ((24% (95% c.i. 5-40%)).
Given the low quality of evidence, a Delphi expert opinion process was undertaken. Thirty experts reached consensus regarding reduction of neonatal sepsis deaths by clean birth practices at home (15% (IQR 10–20)) or in a facility (27% IQR 24–36)), and by clean postnatal care practices (40% (IQR 25–50)). The panel estimated that neonatal tetanus mortality was reduced by clean birth practices at home (30% (IQR(20–30)), or in a facility (38% (IQR 34–40)), and by clean postnatal care practices (40% (IQR 30–50)).
According to expert opinion, clean birth and particularly postnatal care practices are effective in reducing neonatal mortality from sepsis and tetanus. Further research is required regarding optimal implementation strategies.

I really want to thank Accepted for the support in the processs. If it was not for Natalie's advice I wouldn't have met any of the dates. I was kind of lost in the process.. I received strong support and orientation from Natalie in this process. She demonstrated to be professional and willing to help me at any time. I truly feel lucky you assigned her to be my editor. At first, my essays were tremendously out of structure and ideas. Natalie focused me and allowed me to "sell myself" better. I brought up several points in my applications that I would have never done if it was not for her. Her experience in the field really makes a difference. I've applied to four business schools now. I'm positive that with these strong essays I will be accepted in one of these programs.
Herman is all around brilliant. He is receptive, considerate, and very talented at editing on both a macro and micro level. His ideas and input transformed my essays. I have no doubt that his help has made a huge difference in the quality of my applications. I would recommend Herman to anyone and everyone...
Very happy to tell you that I have been accepted to Columbia! Thanks so much for your help along the way. Your insight and careful critiquing of my essays truly did the trick! I think the best compliment I can give is a recommendation and indeed I had a friend contact me to ask for advice after I was accepted. She was asking me about consultants and I let her know that you helped me. Thanks again!

Today, I'm sharing the last of my DIY flower projects from Meet/Make/Do and this is a fun one because it involves a pool. Yep! There was a big gorgeous pool at the house we were at in Palm Springs. So naturally, I challenged myself to use it for a flower project somehow. It's not everyday that you have a pool at your disposal, right?
Anyway, I came up with an idea to create a floating wreath and after a quick search on Bing to find out if foam core floats (it was one of the only supplies we had on hand that I thought might work), I was off! I was using the Bing iPhone app for search, in case you are wondering. And yes! Bing does have an app for iPhones. I use it everyday. Love it.
This project would also be a fun way to customize a special event, like a pool party or backyard wedding, with a flower covered monogram, phrase, or letter that signifies the day. But for now, the triangle is my favorite.
Here's how to make your very own floating flower wreath...
Materials: Foam Core // Xacto Knife // Glue Gun
Flowers Used: Naturally, I used a variety of flowers from Flower Muse. I cannot get enough of these flowers! They are just the best.
The photo above includes the flowers I used for the smaller hexagon wreath, but this is the full list of flowers used between the two wreaths...
Light Peach Juliet Garden Roses // Ivory Peach Garden Roses // Keira Pink Garden Roses // Pink Piano Garden Spray Roses // Pink Mayra Garden Roses // White Anemones // Double Bloom Tulips // Ranunculus
1. To create a hexagon, cut six pieces of foam core that are 2 inches wide and 5 inches wide. *For the triangle shape, cut three pieces of foam core that are 3 inches wide and 16 inches long.
2. Glue the pieces together, with hot glue, one at a time, to create the desired shape.
3. Next, cut the stem off a large bloom and glue it to the foam core. Switch back and forth between large, medium, and small size flowers until the entire wreath has been completed.
4. Gentle set into the pool and enjoy!
As you can see, the step by step wreath started out as a hexagon, but quickly turned into a circle with all of the flowers. The triangle turned out perfectly though. Just something to keep in mind as you're planning possible shapes to use.
Even after doing a mini mock up, I have to admit, I was a little nervous to let go of these guys in the pool. I didn't really feel like retrieving them in my swimsuit at the bottom of the pool. But I'm happy to report, they totally float on their own.
The foam core has lots of tiny holes that fill up with air, which is what keeps the wreaths floating, even though they aren't very light. These flowers are heavy guys (especially the triangle wreath).
And if you don't have a pool that these DIY guys can float in, you can just as easily hang a wreath or two on your front door instead. Add a hook and you're good to go.

P.S. If you're curious about the behind the scenes of this project, Chelsea snapped a photo of the poolside shenanigans. Right after that photo was taken, I decided it was best to just lay down and get dirty. Anything for a DIY, right?
Would you ever make one of these floating flower wreaths? Or would you opt for the door option instead?

So beautiful! If only it would warm up enough for pool weather (writing while sitting in what I hope is the last snowstorm of the year).

This is a great idea and I really love it!
But, I have one question: did you use real flowers or syntethic? I'm sure that it writes above but I don't speak English (so, btw. sorry if my words or sentences make no sense ) so I can't find it
If you used real flowers: what happend after a while?-do they become brown,fade?
Hi Sarah. I used real flowers, not synthetic. So, they won't last forever, but they are beautiful while they're floating in a pool or hanging on a door. I recommend this project for special events (like a wedding, dinner party, etc).Brittni commented on July 13th, 2014 at 11:18 am
Thanks for the DIY, I'm doing a lot of stuff myself for our wedding, but don't know where to find a wholesale flower market in Orange County, Ca. I live in Irvine and love the lt. Peach Juliet garden rose to flat in white ceramic bowls with 2 little song birds on the edge as my center piece arrangements. I have these vases which are about 12 " in diameter and are on a pedestal and think they would be beautiful with floating candles or flowers and collage.

I actually saw this on pinterest! your whole site is so lovely and is giving me a zillion wonderful ideas, thank you so much!! I was wondering, however.. Didn't hot-glue cause the flowers to wilt instantaneously? That would be my luck. I'm gonna stick with silk flowers, I think.. even though I know they FOR SURE won't look anywhere close to as gorgeous as the real thing. Thanks again for your blog!!!Samantha commented on March 2nd, 2015 at 5:52 pm
Hi Samantha. Nope, the flowers didn't wilt right away at all. And actually, being in the water seemed to keep them fresher, longer. That said, they are fresh flowers, so they won't stay fresh forever, of course. But the next day, the flowers from this wreath still looked pretty great, for the most part. I think this has something to do with the fact that they were all properly cared for / prepped before I cut the stems and started using them. Hope this info helps. Best of luck in recreating this project!Brittni commented on March 3rd, 2015 at 12:01 am

Lapa is the Costa Rican name for the scarlet macaw, a magnificent bird you'll likely see during your stay at Lapa Rios. When the owners of Lapa Rios, John and Karen Lewis, first visited the property that would become their eco lodge, they spotted a number of scarlet macaws flying across the jungle that looked much like a river (or rio in Spanish) of scarlet macaws. Inspired by that beautiful image, they decided to name their property "Lapa Rios" (or "River of Scarlet Macaws" in English).
The couple first envisioned Lapa Rios as private nature reserve. They were driven by a dream that required liquidating all their assets to finance the purchase of a large tract of rainforest and build a small, sustainable eco lodge in 1993. Then in 2013, they signed a conservation easement elaborated by The Nature Conservancy and CEDARENA that ensures that this primary forest will be preserved in perpetuity. The 930-acre Lapa Rios Reserve helps buffer the Osa Peninsula's Corcovado National Park—home to 2.5% of the world's biodiversity—and serves as a wildlife corridor.
In this incredible environment, you can look forward to once-in-a-lifetime rainforest adventures and ocean activities. Daily guest experiences include a variety of staff naturalist-led rainforest interpretive hikes, bird watching walks and sustainable/educational local project visits. Ocean-mangrove boating trips, dolphin and whale watching, kayaking and surfing are offered by neighboring guides, as well as massages and yoga classes. Some guests choose the adventurous route with an all-day hike through Corcovado National Park (via a small plane); others find relaxing at the pool or hammock napping most memorable.
Lapa Rios is ideal for those who enjoy adventure in nature and want to be a direct part of conservation and local culture. The majority of guests are active couples, honeymooners and families (children over 6 years) looking for an active and uniquely personal experience. Come be a part of ecotourism at Lapa Rios, become a traveler who participates in real sustainable tourism. Lapa Rios is part of the Cayuga Collection of Sustainable Luxury Hotels and Lodges.

An intervention provided nutritional education to the parents of young children; 10 years later, the children demonstrated less fattening diets.
There is growing evidence that adult obesity begins in infancy. By their second birthdays many children have been exposed to high-calorie, low-nutrition foods and beverages. Therefore, creating healthy eating habits during the first two years is imperative.
This article is a systematic literature review; it provides a detailed account of already published articles that describe interventions to deter weight gain among children under age 2. The authors compiled this review by searching MEDLINE from 1996 to 2009 using keywords such as obesity prevention, infant and nutrition assessment. Out of more than 1,500 initial citations, 12 articles met the criteria for review.
Key Findings:
Today, roughly 25 percent of preschool children are overweight or obese; infant weight status likely persists into adulthood. This study found evidence that weight gain during infancy is preventable.

Category Archives: Sacraments
There are seven sacraments: Baptism, Confirmation, Penance, Holy Eucharist, Holy Orders, Matrimony, and Extreme Unction. All are outward signs instituted by Jesus Christ for the bestowal of sanctifying grace. Five of these sacraments must never be approached unless the recipient's soul is free of mortal sin and in the state of grace. They are called sacraments of the living. Although technically the two remaining, Baptism and Penance, are called sacraments of the dead, Penance can be received by a penitent who is in the state of grace. It was instituted primarily for those who have fallen into serious sin after Baptism, but it can also be effective in lessening the penitent's attachment to venial sin and in reducing the punishment due to sin in purgatory.
Each of the sacraments has its own special spiritual effect. With three of them, Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Orders, an indelible mark, called a character, is imprinted forever on our soul. And, as St. Thomas Aquinas teaches, each of the seven correspond to the natural life of a man. Baptism, our rebirth in the Spirit as children of God, corresponds to our physical birth. Confirmation, which makes us soldiers of Christ and strengthens us in the Holy Ghost as mature members of the Church, corresponds to our physical maturation as leaving behind childhood and becoming young adult men and women. We are anointed with oil as are wrestlers who must do battle against the devil in the ring of life. Penance, in which sacrament the sickness caused by sin is forgiven, corresponds to the medicinal aid we receive when our bodies are ill. The priest is our doctor. Holy Eucharist, our spiritual Food so necessary for the soul, corresponds to the physical food necessary for the body. Holy Orders, the sacrament deputing one to the ministry of the three major orders of the priesthood, corresponds to our deputation in society, first as parents, then as leaders in government. Matrimony, which existed as an institution from the beginning with Adam and Eve, for the procreation of the race, was elevated as a grace-conferring sacrament by Christ Himself. Extreme Unction, also called the sacrament of the sick or annointing, is our spiritual final anointing to strengthen us for the final passage from this life to the next.
How Can One Receive Communion Who Refuses to Become a Catholic?
This is the ultimate in false ecumenism. The Eucharist is the Flesh and Blood of the God/Man; it is the sign of true charity, of union with the Savior. How can one deny the Church of Christ and dare to approach Him in Holy Communion? That Faith is integral. One cannot have divine and Catholic Faith if one denies any article of the Faith.

Managing a big enterprise network takes a sound basis of theoretical knowledge and a great deal of experience.

At first, Charly mumbled something about being overworked and bolted down the hallway. But just two doors down, he stopped and talked his co-workers into helping him out with anecdotes from their daily life. And as the guys run a fairly impressive network, they have plenty of tales.

Safe Turnarounds
Is the impossible turn, in fact, possible?
Have you heard this? "If your engine fails on early climbout, you have no choice: You can't turn around, and you must continue straight ahead." This is said with impressive seriousness: It's the stuff of life and death. I suggest all who are interested in a scholarly analysis consult The Possible 'Impossible' Turn by David F. Rogers.
Safe turnaround altitude forms a cornerstone of my analysis of the initial climb segment. Faced with a low-altitude engine failure, every combination of pilot and single-engine airplane can have such a number: an altitude below which there's insufficient height to turn around, but at and above which it's not only practical, but advisable, to turn back. Why do so many deny the possibility?
Turnaround rejection stems from a mixture of entrenched opinion, a long history of tragic turnaround failures and reluctance to engage in personal experimentation. Any engine failure requires accurate decision making and prompt action. Low-altitude failures are the most severe, and no one wants to be guilty of giving wrong advice and perhaps making things worse. In consequence, instructors have traditionally embraced the most conservative approach, a "do nothing—just crash straight ahead" policy.
Creation of a safe turnaround altitude is a matter of technique, not belief. In defense of entrenched opinion, two things are certainly true: If you climb at Vy (or even faster) and believe that the best way to conserve altitude in a gliding turn is to use very shallow bank angles, you don't have a safe turnaround altitude. In fact, it's fair to say that no matter how high you climb, 500 or 5,000 feet, you'll never be able to return to your departure runway without power. So, you're stuck: An early engine malfunction will inevitably find you searching anxiously ahead for a suitable place to put down. If you do succumb to temptation and start to turn, you'll quickly run out of altitude and possibly try to stretch the glide, then stall and crash.
Fortunately, straight ahead may not be your only option. But you do need to change two aspects of your technique to alter the outcome. Start climbing at Vx, not Vy. Make your turnaround with a minimum 45-degree bank (60 degrees would be even better).
The entire argument for Vx climbs in single-engine airplanes requires more space than available here. In a nutshell, it's safer to climb as close as possible to the airport (Vx) than to stretch your climb out over a greater distance (Vy). If you insist at climbing at Vy, as you were almost certainly taught in primary instruction, no amount of skill in turning around is going to do much good: Vy climbs maximize altitude gain, but cover too much ground in the process. Experimentation will quickly demonstrate that an increase in climb efficiency is of no benefit if your angle of climb takes you so far from the runway that you can't glide back after a successful turn.
It's obvious that turning by itself doesn't lead to stalls and spins. Failures proceed from attempts to stretch gliding performance beyond what's possible, whether in the turn itself or in the glide that follows. This much is generally acknowledged.
What angle of bank would you use in attempting a low-altitude emergency turn-around? My experience suggests that most pilots naturally assume that mild angles would be best, perhaps 15 degrees or 30 degrees at most, on the theory that steeper banks will consume the most altitude. But if you limit the bank to anything less than 45 degrees, your turnaround is doomed to failure, very likely a worse choice than a straight-ahead crash.

The literature on the Henrician Reformation is too vast to be dealt with here comprehensively. For that reason this bibliography is intended to guide the student in the direction of the most recent authoritative books and articles about the reign of Henry VIII, the chief problems pertaining to reform and Reformation in the several senses revealed in this anthology, and those figures besides the king who were important actors in the drama. The pursuit of any more detailed inquiries must rest on the Bibliography of British History, Tudor Period, 1485-1603, second edition ( Oxford, 1959), edited by Conyers Read, and such shorter but useful guides as Lacey B. Smith, "The Taste for Tudors," Studies in the Renaissance, VII ( 1960), 167-83.
On Wolsey and the failure of reform in the years of his greatness the most valuable single book is still A. F. Pollard, Wolsey ( London, 1929), though J. S. Brewer The Reign of Henry VIII, 2 vols. ( London, 1884) is basic to any understanding of politics and diplomacy to 1530. Special studies on the problems confronting Henry VIII and his ministers are legion. Among them, however, Margaret Aston, "Lollardy and Reformation: Survival or Revival," History, XLIX ( 1964), 149-70, is most stimulating on matters of heterodoxy among ordinary Englishmen, as is J. A. F. Thompson , The Later Lollards ( Oxford, 1965). F. R. H. Du Boulay "The Fifteenth Century," in The English Church and the Papacy in the Middle Ages, ed. C. H. Lawrence ( London, 1965), provides an excellent survey of this critical relationship. On the growth of anticlerical sentiment and Hunne's case, Arthur Ogle, The Tragedy of the Lollard's Tower ( Oxford, 1949) is often stimulating, though recent articles have somewhat altered our knowledge of this matter.
On the divorce as the immediate occasion of the Reformation, the best general treatment is Garrett Mattingly beautifully written Catherine of Aragon ( Boston, 1941). The crisis in Wolsey's career which the "King's great matter" represented has provoked sharp partisan discussion, the leading example being James Gairdner "The fall of Cardinal Wolsey," in Transactions of the Royal Historical Society, 2nd series, XIII ( 1899), 75-102. A work dealing with some consequences of the way in which the royal problem provided critics of the Church with a parliamentary platform is G. R. Elton, "The Commons Supplication Against the Ordinaries," English Historical Review LXVI ( 1951), 507-34.
From the divorce flowed both the schism with Rome and the royal supremacy as well as the complicated rewriting of the treason laws, of which Thomas More was the chief victim. Among the most useful works here are: W. H. Dunham Jr., "Regal Power and the Rule of Law: A Tudor Paradox," Journal of British Studies, III ( 1964), 24- 56; L. B. Smith, "English Treason Trials and Confessions in the Sixteenth Century," Journal of the History of Ideas, XV ( 1954), 471-98; as well as the book of F. L. Van Baumer , The Early Tudor Theory of Kingship ( Yale, 1940). But the most provocative contributions have certainly come from G. R. Elton, whose Tudor Revolution in Government ( Cambridge, 1953) and numerous articles have triggered a controversy about the role of Thomas Cromwell and also the notion of sovereignty in the 1530's. These arguments can be followed in the pages of Past and Present from 1963 to 1965.
Traditionally, the Pilgrimage of Grace and the dissolution of the monasteries have been discussed as effect and cause. Recent works on these features of the Reformation in England have done much to cast doubt on earlier assumptions. By far the most

These are our original laces, used by over 30,000 people for millions of miles.
They're great… and we've improved on them with our NEW Xero Laces
For those that like the original, grab an extra pair of laces in one of 5 fun colors:
Black, Royal Purple, Forest Green, Pink, or White (we're out of Brown, Royal Blue, Lime, and Red).
Each set of laces comes with a pair (2 laces) of six-foot laces made of 5/32″ nylon/polypro.
Why nylon/polypro?
Compared to leather, nylon/polypro laces offer a number of advantages:
- Water resistant (leather stretches and contracts when it gets wet/dry)
- No hard edges (leather's edges can bite into the skin)
- Color-safe (dyed leather's color can run)
- No breaking in period (leather starts out pretty stiff)
- Non-stretch (if your laces stretch, your feet can shift over — and off — your sandal)
- Long lasting
- Inexpensive
- Makes a small knot
- FUN colors!

some of you that first round again without your cowboy hats on. Ratcliffe was doing real well before that no-class turd kneed him in the balls 3 times. he noticeably wobbled him early in the first with a nice shot, and was faster. then Cowboy somehow did the exact same strike 3 times and never landed it anywhere but the testicles. left knee from the clinch, where he doen't even hip out and bring it up to the body or head. just raises the knee straight up to the sack. suspicious that a guy known for being a slow starter, was off to a slow start until he happened to land a series of illegal shots that took away his opponents mobility. i wouldn't want to fight a guy who is willing to do the Cup Cheick Kongo

It's late 1945 at the start of this atmospheric historical thriller, and G.I. Adam Miller, officially assigned to ferret out Nazi war criminals in Germany, joins his widowed mother, Grace, who has recently arrived in Venice from New York to resume her life as a wealthy American expatriate. Together, they flow into the social eddies of the upper class, determined to pick up where they left off in 1939. Grace has met an old flame, Gianni Maglione, a distinguished doctor whom Adam suspects of gold-digging. Meanwhile, Adam himself meets Jewish Claudia Grassini, who survived the Nazi pogroms by becoming the mistress of a powerful Italian Fascist. The novel's languid pace picks up when Claudia meets Maglione, whom she accuses not only of being a Nazi collaborator but also of having condemned her own father to Auschwitz. Further complications arise with the appearance of Rosa, an Italian operative and former partisan. Kanon (The Good German, etc.) keeps his complex plot—involving murder, elaborate alibis, false accusations and a web of secrets spinning back to the war—on track, although the various entanglements aren't always neatly unraveled. Adam and Claudia's love affair provides the requisite romance, but there's no sense that they find much to like in one another. More interesting is Kanon's portrait of a pathetic and hopelessly naïve group of wealthy people out of touch with the postwar world's reality. Agent, Amanda Urban. Author tour. (Apr.)
Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
In The Good German (2001), Kanon superbly evoked the post-apocalyptic, pockmarked moonscape of 1946 Germany. Now he turns to postwar Venice, where there are no pockmarks but the survivors are equally shell-shocked by the nearness of evil. Adam Miller, fresh from a stint as a war crimes investigator in Frankfurt, arrives in Vienna to visit his globe-trotting mother, who is holding tenuously to the remains of her fortune and embarking on an autumnal romance with a Venetian doctor whose wartime associations with the Nazis remain troubling if obscure. Miller begins a tumultuous romance with a Jewish woman whose own wartime experience has left her with deep psychic wounds. Soon enough the past can no longer remain hidden as a stunning murder leaves Adam torn between righting wrongs and protecting those he loves and himself. In a world where alibis are the currency of the era--everyone was "somewhere else when the air-raid sirens covered the sounds of people being dragged off"--Adam attempts to tread lightly through a landscape loaded with moral land mines. As before, Kanon juxtaposes a powerful love story and a gripping thriller against a palpable historical moment, but this time his hero can't quite shoulder the burden, his naive American assumptions about right and wrong leaving him ill-equipped to respond and never quite able to garner our full sympathy. And, yet, the novel holds us completely, with its vision of a sadly inadequate hero striking deep at our worst fears about ourselves. Bill Ott

Should EXTREMELY/MORBIDLY obese women conceive? **EDIT**
IMO if I were obese I wouldn't want to get pregnant and have kids. If I'm not healthy enough to care for myself then how can I be healthy enough to care for my child. I think it's a bad example, and selfish. Yes I know there are so many other ways of showing bad habits, but I'm strictly talking about obese women.
And before you start. I am ONLY talking about OBESE women w NO kids. Nothing else. I don't care about their reason for being fat, I don't care about their situation or other bad examples. So please stick to the topic.
**** I am not trying to stir the pot. I am asking a question. I'm not saying women that are obese should not have kids either. I am almost 5ft an I weigh 160. According to my BMI I am obese, but looking at me you would never guess my weight. I am really talking about the women that are 100+ over weight and can't move around w out a scooter. I am not judging, and I'm not a bitch. Yes I have my opinion, but that's all it is. I'm not trying to change anyone's life. I'm just curious to know what you think. Also this isn't Fat vs Skinny. Lol, there are so many different body types and to say that either you're fat or skinny is ridiculous. I am curvy. My body is evenly chunky. I do not look obese.
Quoting Osstie:
I never understand this question... "Should so and so be able to have kids"... I don't fucking know!! Why should I have an opinion? It's not my business who has kids and who does not. It's not my decision to make.
Oh brother...
I should start a thread... "Should Judgmental B*tches Be Allowed to Conceive?"
After all... these are the women breeding the bullies and the snobs... wouldn't society be much better off without them?
Quoting Anonymous:
Here's my obese self....the bmi charts can suck it!
Quoting Tairy-Hesticles:
And before you start. I am ONLY talking about OBESE women w NO kids.
This sentence confuses me. Why are you only talking about those with no kids? Does this mean that one would believe that it's okay for obese women with children to conceive, but not for those without children?
i dont think ignorant people should have kids but they still do.
Then come back! Where are you now?

My son was born in ocala!!!! Miss it :(

I'm considered obese and have 3....was considered obese before I got pregnant....and yes, I deserve my children just as much as a skinny bitch!!

I'm surprised I didn't get the latest Guinnes World Records issue this year too.
Pretty content with it, dad will "install" the internet connection(modem) tomorrow. Hoping it has a pretty high upload speed in addition to download.

so far i got some books,dead or alive 5,and a xbox 360 controller also 20$ in gift cards for barnes and nobles.

Also got a printer, but I have no room or use for it so I'm going to take it back and buy my brother a monitor for his PC, since he has a really old one.

Love it. The scent is a little strong but it doesn't linger. I prefer some of the other scents, but I would buy this again.
I love the soap. The scent is a little strong but it doesn't linger. I like some of the other scents better, but... I'd buy it again.
I've been buying this for years, but it seems when they changed the label, they changed the soap. I used to get the aloe one because(funny enough) it smelled like tea tree oil. Now it just smells like soap. :/
The price is right for this product; great value for the size. This is the first time I've ever had body wash with a pump, and found it very convenient. A little of this product also goes a long way, and does foam up a bit too. The scent is mild and pleasant, and my skin feels soft after a shower even before I moisture. I would absolutely buy this again!
Foams nicely, the smell is good (not very strong, but I would prefer it even a bit lighter), but it seems to dry my skin - I have very dry, atopic skin. The product is not for people with eczema.
This body wash has become a favorite in our house.
Nice clean smell and of course the pump is the reason I decided to try it in the first place, every body wash should come in a pump. Don't know why this common sense approach hasn't coughs in yet.
I purchased Aloe Vera body wash after my favourite body wash in Jason line (Herbal Extracts) had become unavailable. It still does the same good job for my very sensitive skin as the Herbal Extracts. The scent is OK with me, which is great, considering my hypersensitivity to scents. I'd appreciate if the manufacturer could make the scent a little less intensive.
Love this shower gel. Has the faint scent of aloe and is very soothing on the skin.
I bought this body wash for my husband, and he loves it! He said that it makes him feel clean and refreshed, and he loves the scent. I will certainly be purchasing this product again.
I've been using this for a few years. It's a lovely fresh scent, foams up nicely, and cools the skin a little bit. Big fan!
Love, love, love this body wash! I've been using it for years. It smells great, is gentle on my extremely sensitive skin, and leaves my skin with a fresh, tingly feeling. Knowing it doesn't contain the harsh chemicals so many body washes have in them is an added bonus.
The fact that it is natural, it has a great price considering the large amount of product being offered, and that it comes in a pump bottle is simply excellent. Will buy again.
Love this body wash! It's great for the whole family, has a nice scent that's invigorating but not overpowering, and doesn't contain the nasty chemicals that so many body washes are full of.
This is a wonderful product. i first discovered it in Florida and I have used it ever since. It lathers beautifully and the fragrance is not overbearing. It is very moisturizing as well. i love it and I use it everyday.

Orphan Annie's tale has a happy ending
Dog's return thrills San Angelo woman
SAN ANGELO, Texas - The story of a dog named Little Orphan Annie starts in San Antonio where Susie Seward, a Standard-Times employee, and a friend were checking out garage sales.
A woman running one garage sale was anxious to sell everything, including a large cardboard box with a tiny female Chihuahua inside.
"I looked inside, saw her and said, 'Oh my gosh!'" said Susie, who already had a dog and a cat.
The woman running the garage sale said she wanted $250 for the dog. "No way," said Susie, who offered her $50.
"I don't need another dog," Susie said later, "but when she said $50 I thought I would bring her back to San Angelo and find someone who would give her a good home."
When Susie told her husband, Eddie, the plan, he said, "Why don't we just keep her?"
So they did.
"Since the first day, Annie's never left my side," Susie said.
Not until late June when a workman left Susie's back gate open.
When Susie looked in the backyard, Annie was gone.
Susie said she immediately started looking for Annie, but by early July she still hadn't found her.
Susie posted "lost dog" notices in the neighborhood and the Standard-Times' classified section. The newspaper notice, which included a small photo of the Chihuahua, offered a cash reward and ended with "PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE call."
The worst part of losing a pet is wondering what has happened to them.
Will they come home? Are they safe? Have they been hurt?
Some owners never know.
Others get lucky.
Susie never quit looking. She went out searching every day. She and Eddie live in College Hills and scoured the nearby Red Arroyo area for signs of Annie with no luck.
Susie put up fliers and left notices on Facebook.
She had some calls from people who thought they saw her Chihuahua, "but none paid out," Susie said.
"I cried," she said. "I was depressed."
Then, a week ago Saturday, she got a phone call.
"I'm pretty sure we found your dog," a woman said.
"I wouldn't get my hopes up," Susie said.
But 45 minutes later the woman rang Susie's doorbell.
When the door opened, Susie's daughter said, "Annie!" and the little Chihuahua started going in circles.
"I was so choked up I couldn't even speak," Susie said. "I was ecstatic."
"Here we are, all hugging each other with this dog between us. I was so excited I couldn't believe it. I didn't expect to wake up on Saturday and find Annie at the door."
Annie's rescuer said she saw Susie's lost dog ad in the paper. When Susie offered her the reward, the woman said no.
"She said she was just glad that Annie's back with her family," Susie said.
Sometime during her 17-day adventure, Annie had lost her collar, some weight and a little fur. After she greeted her family she "jumped right into her bed," Susie said.
Later that night Susie and Annie shared the couch and slept together.
"She is back to her little self," Susie said.
An orphan no more.

Sacramento The dogfight is over, and the groomers won.
Legislation carried by San Diego Sen. Juan Vargas to tighten regulations on the pet-grooming industry has stalled in an Assembly committee and is not expected to be revived this year.
Vargas, a Democrat running for Congress, said his goal was to crack down on companies that employ untrained groomers at a risk to the well-being of cats and dogs in for a trim, nail clipping or bath.
But a number of groomers, including many small businesses in San Diego, rallied against the measure, saying it would create too much red tape and drive up costs for those who treat the animals responsibly.
"If there is to be some sort of certification process in California, or a method to prevent inept groomers from practicing, it must come from pet groomers themselves," said Barbara Naddy, owner of All About Grooming in San Diego and a leading critic.
Vargas, a Democrat, said he was disappointed in not being able to secure passage.
"Obviously, there are some silent victims here, and those are the pets," Vargas said Monday. "They're going to continue to be hurt by people who are not trained, do not have the education."
The problem, as Vargas saw it, was too many pets being injured by groomers, either through inexperience or incompetence. He named the bill Lucy's Law after an injured pet and her owner drew his attention.
Initially, his Senate Bill 969 spelled out a laundry list of new requirements, including training, insurance and a statewide council to monitor the industry.
Vargas later trimmed the bill of many of its provisions and sought to authorize a voluntary certification that would be issued by a new statewide Pet Grooming Council.
Advocates for groomers still opposed the measure.
