2 s.. ((31. iii-205) This invention relates to the measurement of the rate of flow or volume of a fluid, and has for its object certain improvements in apparatus for eifecting such measurement.
The rate of flow of fluids (gases, vapors and liquids) as determined by orifices, Venturi meters, flow meters, etc., depends on a difference in head expressed in feet of the fluid flowing. This diflerence in head, commonly called diflerential head, is usually measured as the difference of two pressures, or pressure drop, obtained by the use ofa differential gauge or manometer, such as a vertically placed U-shaped tube, partially filled with a suitable liquid (or two liquids immiscible 315 with one another and) immiscible with the fluid flowing and of higher specific gravity. The difference in head expressed in feet of liquid under measurement may be determined by the following formula: v
in which h=the difierential head expressed in feet of 25 the liquid under measurement Vi=the velocity at the up-stream side of the orifice Vz=the velocity at the downstream side of the orifice P1=pressure at the up-stream side of the oriflce Pz =pressure at the down-stream side of the orifice V d=density of the liquid under measurement A common method of determining the rate of 35 flow of gases, vapors and liquids through a pipe is to measure the pressure drop caused by the insertion of a sharply restricted opening or orifice of known size into the pipe. This may-.be
accomplished by usinga manometer, such as the U-tube type, one arm of which connects with the pipe in the up-stream side of the orifice, and the other arm of which connects with the pipe in the' termined value by controlling automatically the diflerence in head producedby'the' rate of flow of the liquid through the restricted oriflce, or even to decrease or increase the rate of fluid flow to a different desired value. Inthe latter case, however, the rate of fluid flow cannot be in- 5 creased beyond that permitted by the pressure in the up-stream side of the restricted orifice. As the level of the high specific gravity liquid in the manometer rises in the'down-stream arm of the manometer, it raises a float in a recorder and 0 controller device, which is connected to and therefore also moves a diflerential. pen shaft. The pen shaftm'ovement is proportionate to the rise of the float, or to the diiference inpressure between the opposite sides of the restricted oriflee. The movement of the shaft is then suitably employed to cause a proportionate movement of a control valve which thus automatically regulates the amount of fluid flowing through the pipe.
It is customary to connect the up-stream side of the restricted orifice in the pipe with the upstream arm of the manometer, and the downstream side of the orifice with the down-stream arm of the manometer, usually by means of a 5 .small diameter copper tubing. The manometer and pipe are thereby placed in open communication with one another, and the diiferential pressure may be readily noted. Mercury is frequently used as the high specific gravity liquid 6 r in the manometer. This means that some of the fluid that is to be and is passed through the restrlcted orifice comes in contact with the mercury, or other high gravity liquid, employed hf' the manometer. In many cases this contact is not objectionable, because 'no reaction takes place between the manometer liquid and the flowing fluid to be measured and regulated. In some would be encountered in the recorder and controller device. It is standard practice in some applications to install sealing liquid of water or oil over jthe mercury in order to prevent contamination of the mercury. The same objection,
however, is advanced to the use of a sealing liquid as we know of no sealing liquid which can be used and wiilnot be affectedby contact with the chlorine gas forming waxy or corrosive compounds, which would impair the operation of the meter.
As a result of my investigations I have discovered improvements in apparatus which overcome the difliculties just enumerated, and, according to my invention, advantage is taken of the principles of the manometer, but the flowing fluid, the 'rate and volume of which are to be measured, does not come in contact with the liquid or liquids employed in the manometer. The manometer itself and its associated devices may be operated in substantially the same manner, but in combination with my improvements.
According to the present invention, a secondary device is employed in conjunction with the usual manometer. This device consists generally of a pair of diaphragm housings, each of which is divided into two non-communicating chambers by means of a thin diaphragm, for
example, silver or any other corrosion resistant material suitable for the work. A diaphragm.
chamber of each housing connects with a separate arm of a manometer. The other chambers of the two housings connect with opposite sides, respectively, of an orifice structure.
The manometer and secondary device just described may also advantageously be employed in conjunction with a suitable device for recording purposes. In this manner, the rate of flow, or a measure thereof, of fluid flowing through a restricted orifice may be measured and recorded.
These and other features of the invention will be better understood if reference is made to the accompanying drawings, taken in conjunction with the following description, in which Fig. 1 is an elevation partly in section of a manometer and a secondary device connected to a pipe, illustrative of a practice of the invention;
Fig. 2 is a cross-section of a modified form of diaphragm housing; and
Fig. 3 is an elevation of a manometer and secondary device hook-up inconjunction with a recorder and controller mechanism, also illustrative of a practice of the invention.
Referring to Fig. 1, a manometer ID, of the conventional U-shaped type, is shown provided with an up-stream' arm II and a down-streamarm l2, and a purge connection l3 at the bottom thereof. An orlflce meter scale It is suitably positioned directly behind the manometer arms. The up-stream arm communicates with an upstream diaphragm housing l5 by means of a conduit IS. The down-stream arm communicates with a down-stream diaphragm housing I! by means of a conduit l8. A valved conduit l9 communicates with conduits I6 and I8 and thus places the tops of the manometer arms in intercommunication with one another, if desired.
The up-stream diaphragm housing I5 is subdivided into two non-communicating chambers 20 and 2| by means of a thin diaphragm 22. The lower diaphragm chamber 20 communicates with the up-stream manometer arm II by means of conduit [6. The down-stream housing I1 is similarly subdivided 'into a lower diaphragm chamber 23 and an upper diaphragm chamber 24 by means of a thin diaphragm 25. The lower diaphragm chamber 23 communicates with the down-stream manometer arm I2 by means of c'onduit l0. Each diaphragm housing advantageously consists of a lower shell 26 and an upper shell 21 provided with flanges 28 and 23, respectively. The rim of the diaphragm is placed between the flanges, after which the flanges may be drawn tightly toward one another by means of bolts, screws, or the like.
Fig. 2 shows a modified form of housing construction, in which the thin diaphragm 30 is of the bellows type. The diaphragms are advantageously constructed of thin silver, or other suitable metal, or metal alloy.
Again referring to Fig. 1, a pipe 3| is shown for the passage of fluid therethrough. The pipe is provided with a thin disc 32 having a small or restricted orifice 33. The disc is held in place by flanges 34 and 35. A tube 36 connects the upstream side of the restricted orifice, through the flange 35, with the upper diaphragm chamber 2| in the up-stream diaphragm housing 15. A similar tube 31 connects the down-stream side of the restricted orifice, through flange 34, to the upper diaphragm chamber 24 of the down-stream diaphragm housing IT.
The manometer arms, their connecting conduits i6 and I8, and communicating diaphragm chambers 20 and 23 are completely filled with two immiscible liquids 38 and 39 of different speciflc gravities with sufficient color difierences, so that a reading is possible at the meniscus of the heavier liquid 39. The heavier liquid of course settles at the bottom of the manometer, while the lighter liquid fills the remainder of the ma- .nometer arms, their connecting conduits and the lower diaphragm chambers. The thin diaphragms 22 and 25 are in this manner supported upon a hydraulic cushion. The twov immiscible difierent specific gravity manometer liquids may for example consist of such combinations as (l) mercury and water, (2) oil and water, 3) dyed carbon tetrachloride and water, etc. When it is desired, however, to operate a standard form of meter which depends for its operation upon the ability of the manometer liquid to raise or lower a float, it is necessary to use a liquid, such as mercury, with sufficient density to impart buoyancy to the float.
Referring to Fig. 3, the apparatus just described, in essential details at least, is shown employed in conjunction with a recorder and controller instrument 40. The up-stream side of the pipe 3| is shown provided with a shut-off valve 4|. This valve is advantageously of the motor operated type, and as shown consists of a pressure regulating valve in combination with a diaphragm shut-off motor 42. A pressure reducing valve in combination with a spring motor (for example, as disclosed in my Patent 2,026,704) may also be employed. The down-stream side of the pipe 3| is provided with a diaphragm control valve 43 which may be of the same type as that shown in the patent just referred to.
The manometer I0 is in this modification provided with a. heavy liquid chamber 44 in the down-stream arm l2. This chamber is in turn provided. with a float 45 connected by appropriate linkage 46 to a difl'erential pen shaft 41. The movement of the differential pen shaft is proportionate to the rise or to the difference in pressure between the down-stream and up-stream sides of the restricted orifice, and appropriate record of such movements is made by the pen on chart diaphragm shut-oi! motor 42. A tube 53 connects tube 52 to-avalve lit, preferably equipped with a strainer. 'A tube 55 connects valve 54 with a fixed throttling orifice device 56. Another tube A program clock or'time cycle controller 63,
' provided with a fixed cam 64, connects the 3-way solenoid operated valve 50 and 66.
The apparatus shown may be operated as follows: Referring to Fig. 1, fluid 6'! (chlorine gas, for example) flowing through the pipe 3! fills tubes 36 and 31 and the two upper diaphragm by means of leads B5 chambers 2i and 24. If the pressure of the fluid L is the same on diaphragms 22 and 25, the heavy gravity liquid 39 tends tolevel itself to give the sam menisc'us reading in each arm of the manometer. In practice, however, there will be a difference in the meniscus levels, which diflerence may be noted from the orifice meter scale M. The meniscus in the upstream arm ii of the manometer will usually be lower than that in the down-stream arm i2, because the pressure of the fluid to be measured on the up-stream diaphragm 22 isgreater thanthe pressure of the fluid on the down-stream diaphragm 25. The pressure impulses of the fluid are transmitted, first, through the diaphragms, second; to and through the lighter gravity liquid 38 which hydraulically supports the diaphragms, and third,
to the heavier gravity liquid 39. If the fluid W flows through the pipe 3!! at a constant rate '(volume), the orifice meter scale It will indicate a certain differential, A change in differential on. the scale then indicates a change in the rate of flow of the fluid. Thus, if the rate of flow er the fluid increases, the pressure of the fluid in the up-stre'am' chamber ti on diaphragm 22 increases and the differential increases. As the differential increases, the meniscus of the heavy gravity liquid 39 in the lip-stream manometer arm ll 'falls, and the meniscus in the downstream manometer arm it rises. Pressure of the fluid in the down-stream chamber 2% on diaphragm 25 is correspondingly lessened. The difference between the pressure on the, upstream side and the pressure on the down-stream side of the restricted orifice 33 is at'once readable from the scale id, as an increase in diilerential.
If, on the other hand, the rate of flow 'of the fluid 67 through the pipe 3| decreases, the pressure of the fluid in the up-stream chamber M on diaphragm 22 is lessened, and the diiferential decreases. meniscus oi the heavy gravity liquid 39 in the up-stream arm H rises, and themeniscus in the down-stream'arm i2 falls. Pressure of the fluid in the down-stream chamber 24 on diaphragm 25 is correspondingly increased. The difference between the pressure on the up-stream side and the pressure on the'down-stream side of the restricted orifice 33 is indicated on scale M as a decrease in differential.
' The thin diaphragms 22 and 25 must always be As the differential decreases, the
the lightergravity liquid 38; and is assembled with allair or gas excluded from the device, be- .cause air 'or gas, being an elastic body, would ter liquid. In this manner, it may be determined whether or not the flow of fluid takes place at a predetermined maximum rate, as in the case of differential manometers heretofore employed in which the fluid does comein contact with the manometer liquid:
With regard to the apparatus shown in Fig.3, the manometer and secondary device are similarly employed. An automatic recorder, however, is substituted for thescale M, and a controller is employed automatically to regulate the flow of fluid fill through pipe ti, up-stream branch 3l--u and down-stream branch tI-d, so as to cause it to flow at a predetermined maximum rate. Operation of this i apparatus is started by depressing a push button on the time cycle controller 63, which energizes th solenoid located in the 3-way solenoid operated valve 50. This valve opens so as to admit air pressure to the discharge of the valve. The high pressure side of the air discharge -is carried to the diaphragm of stop motor M, and the motor is set in operation. u The motor in turn opens stop valve M.
Chlorine gas is then admitted through pipe ti, valve-M, up-stream approach-pipe 3i-.-'u, orifice 33, down-stream discharge pipe iii-d and control valve d3. 7
Q When air is admitted through pressure reducing valve 55 and throttling orifice E6 to tubes 57 and 5t, control nozzle 59 is in a closed position due to the fact that diiferential pen shaft M is located at zero position. Air pressure is therefore directed through tube 5'! to the'diaphragm i;
of control valve d3 until such time as the correct rate of chlorine flow through pipe M is established and the differential across the thin plate restricted orifice 33 is such that the differential pen shaft M is carried to its established operating position. When this occurs, flapper 60 is pivotally swung away from nozzle 59 so as to permit the required air leakage necessary to establish the correct rate of flow. When the time interval is passed which has been established as necessary 'to deliver the quantity of chlorine required, fixed cam St in the time cycle controller 63 opens the electrical circuit to the 3-way solenoid operated valve 50 andthe air control pressure is discharged through air vent 5i.

"Enemy Within" Transporter Question
View Single Post
December 3 2012, 09:23 AM
Re: "Enemy Within" Transporter Question
Tied directly into the impulse engines, there shouldn't be more than a five point variation in the velocity balance.
Sounds like an issue with the ability to add or subtract transportee momentum all right! I'll buy that rationalization.
Why didn't they just beam down some good old fashioned blankets? If they get duplicated, the more the better.
Nothing they could have beamed down would have been of any help. The landing party would die unless beamed
- blankets, hot cocoa and whatnot would just delay the inevitable.
That was the whole point of the plot. Everything our heroes did was too little, too late: while the split Kirk prevaricated and procrastinated, doubted and delayed, things escalated so that what had looked like a minor inconvenience gradually became more major and ultimately life-threatening. Beaming down blankets during the first few minutes of the adventure might have been nice, but six hours into the adventure the blankets would have done no good. (Indeed, at that point, the landing party
have blankets - they wrapped themselves into the canvas of their tent.)
It's the tragedy with any escalating plot: when the end credits roll, the audience goes "they were so
- doing X and Y in the first place would have saved them all the trouble!". But that's unfair, because the heroes "in the first place" had no way of knowing that doing X or Y would be necessary, let alone urgent. There would have been no logic in beaming down blankets at the point of the plot where the transporter still worked but was known to be unable to send down the more complex things needed for ultimate survival. Not unless the heroes knew in advance that the transporters would utterly fail in a few moments!

Ex-UNH coach charged with assault
DURHAM, N.H. Former University of New Hampshire womens hockey coach Brian McCloskey has been charged with assault in an encounter during a game last year.
The Strafford County Superior Court Clerks office says McCloskey is charged with putting his body on top of a players body and threatening her.
The 59-year-old McCloskey has said that during a Nov. 30 loss to Ohio State, he grabbed the back of a players jersey and helmet and reprimanded her for talking back. UNH fired McCloskey over it.
All the charges are misdemeanors punishable by up to a year in jail and a $2,000 fine.
McCloskey has been out on bail since June 6. He has denied wrongdoing and wants his job back.

The instruments sound so plain in this one! Sounds like you decided to give Mario Paint Composer a shot lol. Composition is quite nice, otherwise. Good to hear that you've still got the panning going on to at least make things sound a little wider. None of the instruments in this one sound the least bit real, but it still has a charm to it. :>

In the eyes of the police, curiosity is not a valid reason. Obviously, the courts agreed in this case.
Its a disgustingly wide law, theoretically you could be arrested for posession of a chemistry textbook under it. Fortunatly the police haven't abused it too much yet. The last time I know of this law being invoked was when two political sciences students were arrested for ordering an Al'Quieda book from the University library. On that occasion, the court ruled that being political science students, meant they had valid reason, and they were freed.
But still, its one law I think it too wide, and too heavy handed.

Bedford Public Schools Board of Education will not be hosting a special meeting tonight to vote on teachers' contracts.
The board will only meet in executive session.
Previously, a special meeting had been scheduled to take place after the executive session to approve a resolution to declare an "impasse" with the Bedford Educational Association and impose a contract on the teachers through the district's "last best offer."
The district has been seeking $923,000 in concessions with the union.
Instead, Supt. Ted Magrum said two contract negotiations have been scheduled in the coming weeks to continue to work on a contract agreement.

Jackson Hole Wildlife Co.: Old Riffles
Of course there were also the typical souvenir shops in the Jackson city centre, which were selling the typical souvenirs like the postcards, the magnets, all kind if gadgets with your name on, .....
But this one shop was also selling old riffles
That would be great to buy, but what with the high security at the airports, it would never work out to get these things on an airplane.
So again it was not the ideal souvenir to take home (if you are from overseas).
What to buy: an old riffle
What to pay: I have no idea
- Road Trip
Indian Trader: Wooden statues
Opposite the Jackson Hole & Greater Yellowstone Visitor centre there was a souvenirs shop which attracted my attention, as there were a great number of wooden sculptures along the street.
So I decided to take a look across the street. There were a whole row of beautifully sculptured Indian statues, and to the sides there sculptured bear and moose statues which where holding Welcome signs - great stuff they were selling here
There was also the biggest totem pole in Wyoming (said the note on the totem pole) - and to be honest it might be possible - but I must say that it was the only totem pole that I did see during my Wyoming roundtrip, well . . . if it is the only totem pole, then it is automatically the biggest one . . . am I right or am I right?
What to buy: some wooden statue to put in your garden
What to pay: depends on the size of the wooden statue you want to buy
- Road Trip
Jackson Wildlife Co.: Buying dead animals
The shop which was selling the old riffles, was also selling dead animals.
Maybe they had used these riffles for killing the animals?
There were all kind of local (dead) game for sale here.
It is great to see stuffed animals in kind of a museum, but who buys these things?
Who puts a giant stuffed black bear in his living room?
I have no idea
So great to look at, not a good idea to buy, any way no chance you pass customs in Europe with such a dead animal.
What to buy: a dead animal ?
What to pay: I hope a lots of money
- Road Trip
different shops: Buy a Cowboy hat
It was great to walk around in Jackson and to visit all (not all, but a lot) of the typical shops which you can fins in the streets that surround the city square, lets say the city centre.
One of these shops was a shop which was only selling hats.
Wow, I did see some beautiful ones (read expensive ones) in this shop.
And no, I did not buy a typical hat because:
1. Too expensive
2. It was the beginning of my trip, how to keep it decent
3. Once I come home, what I do with it? ?
What to buy: a real cowboy hat
What to pay: from 15 US$ to . . . . . . .
- Road Trip
YIPPY I-O candy Co: Sweets and candies, by barrels. .
"Killing time" in the evening, walking in the streets you may step across this candy shop; if you are with kids, be prepared to spend some time inside and to carry heavy bags. . . I wouls have liked to have such a shop not far from my house when I was a kid!
Colours, shapes display are just beautiful! I loved to look into the barrels, full of sweets, tens and tens of candies on the shelves and old or old fashioned boxes, metallic boxes like in the sixties. It is really worth to have a look in this shop and the personal is not at all putting pressure on the potential customers, which is for me a very good point.
What to buy: Candies, candies, candies, ah! and other sweets!

Most people have tried beef jerky even turkey jerky but have you ever tried buffalo jerky, hands down the best of jerkys and the Jackson Hole Buffalo Meat Co. has it in all weight sizes. Not only great jerky but they also have almost any cut of buffalo from buffalo burgers to t-bone and filet mignon. The prices might be a bit steep for some, but there is something for everyone who craves a little buffalo.
I tried several samples from buffalo salami to buffalo roast and I could not resist buying the buffalo roast, cuts like butter, and the jerky. They even have elk jerky and cuts of elk. Gifts of these items are a hit back home. Jams and syrups abound in this store and the owner, Dan Marino, cousin to the football player same name, is a friendly, talkative person, eager to share his tales of buffalo with you. By the way, gift packs are available as well. If you stop in to try or buy, say hello to the owner, Dan Marino for travelgourmet of VT.
What to buy: Buffalo Jerky is the hot item in this shop, but hard to resist the Buffalo Salami and the Italian buffalo sausage
What to pay: Buffalo are not that plentiful and the herd is culled each year with government sanction, so the price is a bit on the high end but the high nutrition, lower fat, calories and cholesterol than beef, pork, turkey, skinless chicken, and some fish, according to Dan Marino, owner of the Jackson Hole Buffalo Meat Co. make Buffalo a gourmet's delight.

Ranch Shop: Fantastic Finds
I had been looking all over for the perfect Turquoise jewlery to bring back as a souvenier of my honeymoon. I searched many, many shops until I came across the Ranch Shop on my last morning in Jackson. All the pieces I had seen before were outrageously expensive, and to tell the truth not even close to being the perfect things for me. She informed me that thy purchased all of the jewlery directly from the Navajo, so I could be assured it was authentic.
The very helpful saleswoman at the Ranch Shop helped me find a gorgeous cuff bracelet and a lovely necklace. I was so happy!
What to buy: The shop not only sells jewlery, but also a wide variety of other gifts. It's not your typical t-shirt and magnet souvenier store though. The Shop has a nice selection of "mountain and western" products and the quality is very good.
What to pay: The prices are very resonable, especially when compared to some of the other stores

Jack Dennis: A wonderful outdoors shop
If you plan to have some outdoors activities, there are several shops in Jackson which may have what you need or what you forgot before arriving there. I was looking for a propane cartridge for my French outdoor burner and of course the first shop I went in did not have what I needed; the employee told me "try Jack Daniels, opposite the city square on Broadway Avenue". Well, strange name. . . and after few minutes I found. . .Jack Dennis! Well for outdoors, it sounds better than the famous bourbon; my French ear is not fully used to the Wyoming accent. . . . .
All sorts of clothes, fishers equipment, maps, guides, boats, and of course all what the trekker needs, and. . . the propane cartridge I was looking for. This shop is two-storey having lots of choice and the employees made me a good competence impression. From outside, this shop looks quite nice and even for only a visit it is worth to step in.
What to buy: Outdoors gear; almost everything is there.
What to pay: From a few dollars to thousands of them !

Coldwater Creek: Women's Clothing and Fashion Accessories
Coldwater Creek is a nice shop for quality and stylish women's clothing, plus accessories such as purses, jewelry, belts, and scarves. You will also find items such as candles, pillows, small decorative items, and frames for photos. The interior is pleasant, with wood floors, and lighting that isn't too bright or too dim. This is a chain, with stores in various cities, however, we do not have one in my small home town. When I saw this one in Jackson, knowing I needed an additional gift for my daughter-in-law's birthday, I stopped in. I found a number of items I thought she would like, and settled on a nice, stylish sweater. I also purchased a set of four square candles, and a holder, for a good friend back home.
What to buy: Anything for the women or female friend in your life, whom you would like to purchase a special gift for, or if you are a women, shop for yourself.
What to pay: This is not a discount store, but it is not the most expensive store either. I paid about $55 for my daughter-in-law's sweater. Of those looked at, prices ranged from $40 to $100.

UK: Traffic Camera Data Dropped in Gutter
Hertfordshire, UK police drop a memory stick containing sensitive personal information on motorists.
A UK police team using cameras to record the movements of motorists carelessly dropped a memory stick containing sensitive private information in Stevenage, Hertfordshire. On Wednesday, a passerby noticed the unmarked computer memory device lying in a gutter. The passerby checked the device on his computer and found that it carried 330 megabytes of unencrypted data files containing personal information on suspects.
"This is absolutely top secret information and it would have been disastrous had it fallen into the wrong hands," an anonymous "insider" told the Mirror newspaper.
The memory stick was used in the automated number plate recognition (ANPR) spy camera system fielded by Hertfordshire Constabulary. ANPR cameras record the license plates of all passing vehicles which allows a computer to track the movements of individual drivers whether or not they are suspected of any crime. A computer program also matches this license plate data against a list of suspects from a database. If a match is found, the computer instructs the officers to pull over and interrogate the passing vehicle's driver. ANPR devices are known to have a significant
false positive
In 2005, traffic camera vendor Affiliated Computer Services (ACS)
abandoned a box of photo radar tickets
on a park bench in Edmonton, Canada. The tickets contained sensitive personal information on 320 motorists.

I worked for an hour trying to get this to work. I added an image to a term and then created the function call to display it with no luck. I kept thinking that I was not using the term object as it was cryptically specified in the help section. In the end I examined the src code and noted that in functions.php line 14 the src was retrieved from options:
$src = get_option('s8_tax_image_'.$tax_term->taxonomy.'_'.$tax_term->term_id);
I check all options and there were no entries from s8_tax_image....

Burger King drops low-calorie Satisfries'
The Miami-based chain said in a statement that it gave its franchisees the option to continue selling the french fries earlier this week. Only about 2,500 of the approximately 7,400 locations in the U.S. and Canada opted to continue selling them as a permanent item. The others have started phasing them out.
The french fries, called "Satisfries," were a big bet for Burger King when they were announced in September. But they weren't as well received as Burger King had hoped.
The name was mocked in some corners, with one website referring to them as "Saddest Fries." There also is some confusion about their caloric superiority, with a small order still containing 270 calories. A small order of McDonald's fries, by comparison, has 230 calories because the serving weighs less.
Satisfries also are pricier, costing about $1.89 for a small order, compared with a $1.59 for regular fries.
And it's unclear whether customers were aware what made the fries lower in calories. Burger King said Satisfries used a different type of batter to prevent some oil from being absorbed by the potatoes during frying. But the company did not have signs in restaurants explaining the difference between Satisfries and regular fries.
It's just one of the gambits by Burger King since investment firm 3G Capital took it public again 2012. Other moves have included the return of the "Big King," which resembles a Big Mac and a "French Fry Burger," which is essentially a burger with four french fries smashed on top.
This week, Burger King Worldwide Inc. also announced the return of "Chicken Fries" for a limited time. The company said it brought back the deep-fried chicken in response to demand it saw online. The efforts haven't yet sparked any big sales gains at a time when traditional fast-food chains are struggling.
In the latest quarter, sales at established restaurants in the U.S. and Canada edged up just 0.4 percent.

I was a little apprehensive about booking anything on the island because we've never been here and know what it's like to experience the difference of online pictures and reality...BUT this hotel is gorgeous, the staff is incredibly friendly, the accommodations are awesome and convenient, the beach is clean and beautiful, location was great...EVERYTHING about the hotel is truly great here! The ONLY complaint I could say is that if you ask for directions to get anywhere on the island they will give you a pre-printed sheet for directions to anywhere and we discovered that most of the directions are not actually correct...luckily the extremely friendly locals led us in the correct direction with everything!!
You will love this hotel and location! VERY family friendly, standard rooms are smaller BUT still spacious enough for my spouse and our two kids (10 and 13).

I finally got my silver tack cleaned up and wanted to get a couple of pictures of it on Dobe. The breast collar was quite a bit too small so it was just on long enough for a few pix and then off it came. I think this tack still looks pretty good for being older than I am and just hanging in the tack room for the better part of 15 years.
I had to really play with the exposure with these because they were taken with my cell phone and it was very nearly dark. That's why they aren't very good quality. Also, please forgive my crappy lookingness LOL. It had been a very long, hot day.
I don't quite know what is going on with this picture. I know he was shaking his head because of a fly but I wonder where my face came from. LOL

Honestly, the story is not much of a mystery, but I've learned some things along the way which you may find useful.1. Show up. Patrick McCollum was asked once what is the key to successfully building Pagan community. His answer was, "Show up." If you want to be part of something, you have to be there when the action happens.

BMC Public Health 2012, 12:930 doi:10.1186/1471-2458-12-930Published: 30 October 2012
Schistosomiasis is a parasitic infection that continues to be a major public health problem in many developing countries being responsible for an estimated burden of at least 1.4 million disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) in Africa alone. Importantly, morbidity due to schistosomiasis has been greatly reduced in some parts of the world, including Zanzibar. The Zanzibar government is now committed to eliminate urogenital schistosomiasis. Over the next 3–5 years, the whole at-risk population will be administered praziquantel (40 mg/kg) biannually. Additionally, snail control and behaviour change interventions will be implemented in selected communities and the outcomes and impact measured in a randomized intervention trial.
In this 5-year research study, on both Unguja and Pemba islands, urogenital schistosomiasis will be assessed in 45 communities with urine filtration and reagent strips in 4,500 schoolchildren aged 9–12 years annually, and in 4,500 first-year schoolchildren and 2,250 adults in years 1 and 5. Additionally, from first-year schoolchildren, a finger-prick blood sample will be collected and examined for Schistosoma haematobium infection biomarkers. Changes in prevalence and infection intensity will be assessed annually. Among the 45 communities, 15 were randomized for biannual snail control with niclosamide, in concordance with preventive chemotherapy campaigns. The reduction of Bulinus globosus snail populations and S. haematobium-infected snails will be investigated. In 15 other communities, interventions triggering behaviour change have been designed and will be implemented in collaboration with the community. A change in knowledge, attitudes and practices will be assessed annually through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews with schoolchildren, teachers, parents and community leaders. In all 45 communities, changes in the health system, water and sanitation infrastructure will be annually tracked by standardized questionnaire-interviews with community leaders. Additional issues potentially impacting on study outcomes and all incurring costs will be recordedand monitored longitudinally.
Elimination of schistosomiasis has become a priority on the agenda of the Zanzibar government and the international community. Our study will contribute to identifying what, in addition to preventive chemotherapy, needs to be done to prevent, control, and ultimately eliminate schistosomiasis, and to draw lessons for current and future schistosomiasis elimination programmes in Africa and elsewhere.

Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief Reviews
Awesome moisturizerThe gel formula of this moisturizer is wonderful. It makes dry skin feel so much smoother, without making it feel greasy. — 4 years, 8 months agoobummyo | 26 reviews
The best moisturizer everI love it. It is not oily at all. My skin is very sensitive in winter, and this moisturizer really rescues my skin. — 4 years, 8 months agoashenka | 3 reviews
GreatMy skin gets so dry during the winter. This stuff is like a drink of water for my skin. It only takes a little bit to cover your whole face. — 4 years, 8 months agospcsah2000 | 3 reviews
Winter's best!I use this in the winter, when the dry air does tons of damage to my skin. It instantly feels amazingly soft and supple, just don't let your hubby kiss you right after you apply it, though as it does not have a great taste, according to him. He loves kissing me when I use this moisturizer because it just makes my skin glow! — 4 years, 8 months agoshoopadoop30 | 3 reviews
buy itthis is a great moisturizer. I love the gel formula. It never makes my face shiny or feel greasy. — 4 years, 8 months agorm | 48 reviews
Worth every centUsually I try not to buy expensive moisturizers, but this is my one exception. My skin feels soft as a baby's, but never oily, and it lasts all day! Definitely a step up from Dramatically Different; I sometimes even use this as an eye mask. This is a keeper. — 4 years, 8 months agomes2140 | 3 reviews
great for dry skinfeels wonderful, absorbs quickly — 4 years, 8 months agoamandaalberts | 3 reviews
This is the stuff!I have extra dry skin in the winter, and this stuff really does the trick. It can be applied under or over (!) makeup, and works best on the areas of my face that are flakey and peeling. Just one application in the morning and my skin is hydrated all day long. It can also be used as an all-over face mask. I love it! — 4 years, 8 months agocaseyloveschad | 3 reviews
There are better products for the money!I bought this a few months ago because although I have normal to dry skin, I was tending to get some dry patched and really wanted a light moisturizer that wasn\'t heavy, but moisturized. And this product does do that, but I found that Clinque dramatically different worked a lot better, and it even made my skin glow even after I used it, while this was just a plain moisterizer and wasn\'t too exc...read moreiting. But over all if you are just looking for a light moisurtizer for a dry face this is Ok. — 4 years, 8 months agohcaroline | 4 reviews

I appreciate all the input everyone. Me being a little OCD...went out and jacked it back up today to do some more head scratching, lol. I agree with the majority that the 2" setting looks best but I think it's on the verge of making the stock sized tires look too small. And the thing that really probably made my decision....I got my son and his buddy (maybe 250 pounds combined) to sit on the tailgate while it was jacked up to the 2" mark and I did not like what I saw. It was very noticeably squatting in the rear. So I think the 1.3-1.4" setting is probably going to be the best happy median for me.
Thanks again all and it will probably be a couple of weeks but I will post some photos after the install.

I know we already have 2 threads about the draft. One about the 1st pick and the other about the 7th should we get it. I was thinking how fuked up it would be if we finished with the 7th worse record and still lose our pick in the lottery which got me to thinking : why aren't we talking about the late 1st round pick that we acquired from San Antonio?
Right now, Chad Ford has us picking some kid out of St. Paul. I don't know much about him except that he's a small forward. If it were up to me, I think I'd be interested in taking a big man. I hope he proves me wrong, but I'm not sold on Tyler just yet. Here are a couple of 4's and 5's that are in the 15-30 range that I'd love as additions.
Andrew Nicholson - Played all 4 years in college so I'm inclined to say that he's NBA ready. He plays defense and blocks shots. What sets him apart from other bigs is that he's able to knock down shots. Has a very good mid to long range jumpers.
Patrick Young - A very electrifying big man. Seen some of his dunks and dude can jump out of the gym. On top of that, he plays good defense as well. I was watching his interview with draft express and from what i can tell, he's a very humble and intelligent young kid who's willing to do whatever the team asks him to. I would welcome him as an addition as well.
I'm kinda mehhh on Meyers Leonard and Mason Plumlee, but if the 2 names I mentioned earlier was taken off the board I'd pick up one of these big men. Both plays defense, block shots, rebound, and pass very well for their positions.
What say you guys?
EDIT - grammer
Our 30th (from Spurs) pick.

All are good prospect, but I just don't trust this coaching staff to polish the big man to be an starting front court player.

Drew Gordan a local product from Mitty, 6'9-6'8 a little undersized, went to UCLA and then to New Mexico, hustles hard, great rebounder, can do all the dirty work on the inside.

"Gerald Wallace will opt out of his deal with the Nets and become a free agent."
http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/ ... ree-agent/
we should draft a pure center so he can learn behind bogut and lee, and sign Gerald Wallace for defensive set up. just my imo, get the best center outta this yrs draft! big men are hard to find.

Signing GWallace would be the best thing to me, as long as there is salary space for him (which as things are right now, there isn't) and he doesn't want more than 8 million a year for no more than three years. A trade getting rid of DWright for future picks would maybe open up enough salary space to sign GWallace, but that'd have to be done first and early in the offseason to have a good chance of landing him. That would then definately allow for the drafting of the best big available, so that's a very good, though difficult to do and time, direction.
GWallace is a serious defender and that is what makes him so valuable to me. If he was added to the roster right now, that could be championship caliber right there. Blazers didn't have as much talent when they had GWallace, even when Roy and Oden were healthy.

My name is David Benson and I am your new Youth Pastor! I am so excited to begin in ministry alongside you as we partner to make a difference in the lives of our young people. I'd like to share with you a little about my experience in Youth Ministry and why I am so excited to be a part of the Tuckston UMC team.
I have been in full time paid youth ministry for almost five years where I served as Director of Youth Ministry at Cape Coral First UMC and Director of Youth and Young Adults at Covenant Community UMC in Asheville, NC. While in Florida I served as Co-Chair for the Adult Workers with Young People table at the Conference level, that oversees all the Youth Pastors in Florida. I also served on the Young Adult table for the Florida conference that oversees all the UM young adults. I have helped out as a small group leader at this church as well as led in almost every capacity in the Chrysalis Community. I have even helped out with Kairos, which is the prison version of Chrysalis and Emmaus. I have a BS in Youth Ministry from Southwestern College and hold a certificate in Operational Management from Southwestern and a Youth Ministry certificate from the Youth Ministry Institute in Orlando, FL.
As you can see, in the short amount of time that I have been in youth ministry I have had my share of experience as a Youth Pastor. I have worked with Youth Councils, Adult Leadership teams, Youth Leadership teams, School Teams, Youth Worship Bands and even parent groups. I am excited about the current Youth Council and the direction they are already leading our youth ministry. We have a meeting this Sunday and I feel confident this new school year will be filled with new things and many blessings!
God has really been working in my life over the past several years and I give most of that credit to my upbringing here at Tuckston. I'm excited to share with you my passion for youth ministry and calling to God's work. Please join me in prayer as we join together to be in ministry to our young people and those so desperately in need to knowing Jesus here and around Athens!

Memphis extends Justin Fuente
Updated: February 13, 2013, 5:53 PM ETAssociated Press
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Memphis football coach Justin Fuente has received a one-year contract extension through the 2017 season.
Fuente had signed a five-year contract when the former TCU co-offensive coordinator took the job in December 2011.
Athletic director Tom Bowen announced the extension Wednesday. In a statement released by the university, Bowen said Fuente "has met or exceeded every expectation we had for him."
In Fuente's first season as coach last year, Memphis went 4-8 ...

|Key Info
The property lies on a south-facing hillside, surrounded on three sides by chestnut, oak and pine forests, overlooking the Gulf of St Tropez.
The view is stunning – at least, we've never had a visitor here whose mouth hasn't fallen open in wonder! Across seven lines of hills (count them!), lie the villages of Gassin and La Croix Valmer and, beyond, the deep blue of the Mediterranean stretching all the way to North Africa. On a fine day you can see as far as Corsica, a hundred miles away (but don't be too disappointed if you don't – in summer the haze over the sea often obscures it).
The village of La Garde Freinet, with two butchers, three bakers, a twice weekly market, a newspaper shop which has UK papers, and most of the other essentials of life, is three miles away.
This is a place for people who love the countryside and enjoy being surrounded by nature - you can walk out of the cottage door and ramble for 15 miles through the forest to Collobrieres without seeing a soul, even in summer. But it's also within easy reach of the beaches, boutiques and nightlife of the coast. The best beach, at Pampelonne, is half-an-hour's drive from the house. St Tropez is 40 minutes away (but take the back road to avoid the traffic jams in summer). Further afield, Antibes, Cannes and Nice are an hour down the motorway, and if you head inland there is a wealth of small stone villages (and some excellent restaurants) all less than an hour's drive from the house.
When not let, the cottage is used as stand-alone guest accommodation for the owner's friends.
It is an ideal (and idyllic) rural retreat for a couple or a family with small children. There are two large rooms (each 16 x 20 feet). The ground floor has a fully equipped open-plan kitchen with dishwasher, fridge, eye-level oven and vitro-ceramic cooking range, adjacent to a living-cum-dining area (in which the sofa can open up into a bed for children). There is also a small downstairs loo, installed for the benefit of elderly relatives when visiting, but which can also come in handy for small children!
Outside is a private courtyard with a stone table, seating six, for meals and a view across to the sea. The first floor, which is open access, consists of a bedroom with double bed -- twin beds are available on request -- generous built-in cupboard space, and ensuite bathroom. The bedroom opens onto a large roof terrace. A baby-cot/ playpen can be provided if required.
Heating is by wood fire and electric radiators (only needed between November to March). Firewood is supplied!
The cottage is independent of the main house and not overlooked from it - so you have complete privacy and can wear and (within reason, broadly construed!) do whatever pleases you. The main house is occupied by the owners for nine months a year - it's our home - but there is a separate entrance on the other side of the house so to all intents and purposes you are on your own. The nearest neighbour is 250 yards away, completely hidden by the forest, and the only visitors you are likely to get are wild boars (which root around in the forest at night) and the occasional fox or deer. It is one of the few homes in La Garde Freinet to be completely protected from the mistral, the north-west wind – so even when a gale is blowing in the village, you can sunbathe on the terrace.
When the main house is empty, you are kings of the mountain and have free range over the entire 10-acre property. In the summer months (June to August) the main house is also available for rent, either on its own or together with the cottage -- see the entry under 'Maraval main house'.
Note: because the beach is so close, there is no swimming pool. We plan to install a heated outdoor jacuzzi, but that won't be done for another year... so this year you'll just have to imagine it!

The Provence region
If you know Provence already, there's no need to tell you that it is one of the most beautiful regions not only in France but in Europe. The département, or county, of the Var is largely unspoiled – far less built-up than the areas around Cannes and Nice, further East, where the coast is a concrete strip and the hills are blanketed with suburban villas. The Var is still covered in vineyards and forests. Development along the coast has been strictly controlled, so there are sand dunes and miles of beaches where it is possible, even in summer, to find a congenial spot without being overwhelmed by the rest of humanity.
La Garde-Freinet
A century ago, when St Tropez was still a fishing village, artists like Bonnard and Soutine made it their home. It combined simplicity, beauty and intellectual daring. In the 1960s, that began to change. Gradually St Tropez was commercialised. The painters, the writers, the filmmakers, moved inland. Many settled in and around La Garde Freinet, which for more than a thousand years has held the pass over the mountains between the hinterland and the coastal plain. Vanessa Redgrave and Tony Richardson, Jeanne Moreau, J.R.R. Tolkien, Laura Ashley and many others had summer homes here. The French writer, Serge Rezvani, lived across the valley; Jack Nicholson was a frequent visitor. Some have left; others have moved in. Johnny Depp has a house just down the road at Le Plan de la Tour. Today la Garde Freinet continues to be a magnet for interesting characters. Yet it is still a simple place where anyone who wants to can fit in. In the butcher's shop where Jean-Jacques presides, the wall is covered in mementoes from rock stars and Hollywood actors. St Tropez is next door – sadly less eccentric, more polluted by money and more sanitized than in the past – but still a lovely village. You can have the best of both worlds – the craziness of the coast and the serenity of the forests – and all you have to do is open the front door.

Join Couchsurfing to see Suzanne's full profile. It's free!
About Me
I am NOT living in Amsterdam, but in Hilversum.
It is a 20 minute Trainride (one way) and 5,70 EUR per person, per one way/so 11,40EUR per round trip. (possibly 1 EUR extra for the ticket itself) If you only want to see Amsterdam, I will not be the host you are looking for. When you like a more local village, this could be a great spot for you!
I have a big couch to sleep on which fit 2 people. But I do not have a extra mattrass or bed sheets. Please bring your own airmattrass to put on the floor and your own sheets in case you dont like a couch.
I have 1 sleepingbag available for use.
Sometimes you need to share the livingroom with other CS'ers.
*For the tall people between you (longer than 1.75cm), my roof has some parts which are not extremly high, so on some places you might bump your head ;-)*
If you dont mind these things, you are welcome to send me a request!! To proof that you read this above, please start your request with: I want to stay in Hilversum. :-)
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am a pretty active CS'er since (15 jan 2012). I surfed quiet a lot during my travels. Now I'm back in Holland and the time has come to host!
Im still new with the hosting part, but as i have been surfing i want to give others tge same kind of expierience as I had!
As i just live in Hilversum, i look forward to discover the town/bars with you.
There is a fun museum for music and television wich is loads of fun to go to.
To start couchsurfing was a big experience, and till now i LOVE it! Its great to meet so many people in short time and everybody is helping out! Just really Amazing.
Its better than hostel or guesthouse or hotel or whatever, locals know best!!
Have been surfing around in China, Thailand, Indonesia ,Australia, New Zealand and USA.
Its great to do active things and and always looking for new adventures! Always like to meet a lot of people and enjoy the moments that as much as i can.I got a Facebook page with some awesome pictures fro my travvels and people I met with CS.https://www.facebook.com/pages/Suusys-World-Trip/303207603052533So if you like, just check it out!
Anyway I am willing to try a lot of crazy things! (to do and to eat). So if you got anything special... let me try! haha
I did a Vipassana Mediation course from 6feb 13- 17 feb 2013, and also this gave me a new interest in my life. I worked a lot abroad and even on a Cruiseship!
Music, Movies, and Books
With music I like regeaton and Pop the most, but sometimes its nice to hear Trance and Rock. So it means I like almost all kinds of music. My favorite singer is Sarah Connor, and dutch singers Nick & Simon.I love to watch movies, especially teenage movies. Sometimes adventure,comedy, horror and of course romantic movies.If there is something i prefer not to do is it to read books! Only cartoon books (Donald Duck) or some romans is okay to read.
But I have to be honest, I start to read a little more than i did before.

In some cases, after the very first start of PhoCo you may get an error dialog as shown in the picture below.
This message is thrown by the .NET runtime. This is no PhoCo Bug!
Rather it's something on your machine that is missing or broken.
Unfortunatelly, it doesn't say much about where the error is located. To get rid of this dialog, do the following:
o Check your installation for the required components
- Windows 2000 or Windows XP Professional (SP1/SP2)
- .NET Framework 1.1
- DirectX 9.0c
- SAPI (on Win2K)
o Let Windows-Update check your installation
-see Post (http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/show...Windows-Update)
o Check whether your sound card is running
- see post (http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/phonecontrol/40500-problem-i-was-able-to-fix.html)
o Don't use it on crippled systems!
- Systems drilled down with nLite (or something similar)
- Systems with disabled "Performance counters" (http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/show...8&postcount=14)
o For gods sake, read the posts in this forum
- Use search (try "install, error" or "windows update")
- It's not getting better to post the same **** in various threads
Once again, PhoCo ist tested by myself on 4 different Machines with different configurations (W2K, XP Home, Pro). One of the tests is making a fresh install and let PhoCo run.
It also runs on more than 200 machines (that are the ones that I know, it's been downloaded over 11.000 times). So please don't tell me that this is a common failure.
If it's not running on your PC, stop complaining and check your installation.

For the 2015 Festival
Hear ye, hear ye! The Illinois Renaissance Festival (IRF), a 501(c)3, non-profit organization, announces some important, exciting, and challenging changes for 2015. As a result of the terrible storms that occurred during last year's Renaissance Festival in Danville, the Festival sustained a substantial amount of physical, financial, and emotional damage. Taking into account all of the events of last August and their repercussions, the Board of Directors has determined that now is the perfect time to restructure, revitalize and rebuild our organization from the bottom up. Therefore it is with great sadness that we announce the suspension of the Illinois Renaissance Festival for 2015.
Fear not, lords and ladies; all is not lost! The temporary suspension of this year's festival is part of a strategic plan to ensure the future integrity of the festival and its parent organization, Prairie Players Theater Academy. So, keep thine eyes and ears open for future email and website proclamations!
To our vendors, artisans, performers, sponsors, and community partners: we will be contacting you soon about how you can help to ensure the future of the Illinois Renaissance Festival for many years to come. We thank you in advance for your continuing support. And for our patrons and volunteers: we are ever grateful to you all for your support throughout these past 10 years, and we want to assure you that the Illinois Renaissance Festival and its legacy of fun, family entertainment will continue for many years into the future.
We're excited about this year of change and transformation, and we look forward to working with you to build a strong future with the Illinois Renaissance Festival.
Join us in 2016 for a day of fun for the whole family!
