Discussion: SCREENS IN TOURNAMENTS
Ho, not sure your argument will last for long. Are you saying that insurance will not cover an injury involving the orange bag at first? It wasn't part of the "field" 20 years ago. How about chain link fences? When I first started playing, they were not part of the "field"it was either an open field or a wooden fence. And if someone is injured while standing on the mat at home and it slips out? Not part of the field until 20 years ago.
You see my point. It is easy to mandate that a screen IS part of the field, just like different fencing, the mat at home, the extra bag at first, etc. If league rules or tournament rules say a screen is mandatory (as the rules do in my league and have for 16 years) then it is "part of the field".
I think a mandated screen is coming to tournament ball as it has already in many rec leagues. It's the only realistic or acceptable solution to cope with the hot bats. It's unfortunate that it doesn't seem to be a likely option for corner infielders. When most senior softball is played with a screen, then tournaments will have to use it or the pitcher won't be covered because the ABSENCE of a screen will not be considered part of a proper field.
As to screen interference, as I have posted many times here based on my 16 years of experience pitching with a screen, it is a rare occurrence when a ball thrown from the outfield to home hits the screen (not even once this past year and I play about 100 games a year with a screen) and even rarer when a throw from third hits the screen. Can't remember the last time that happened. On the other hand, it is a rare game when at least one ball doesn't hit the screen from being hit up the middle.

Discussion: Winter World`s
Dbax, I agree with you. There are relevant comparisons:
In the Huntsman, it is well known that many teams show up with non-roster power players far above the skill level of the regular season roster. Add to that, some teams sandbag in the seeding in order to dominate in the brackets. It diminishes the value of a gold medal. The only teams I admire are those who truly went with their own roster (or a same-skill level sub) and won against the cheaters.
The same thing happened in bowling. In the 60s, when automatic lane dressers became common, it was soon realized that by altering the oil sprayers one could goose a lane so that any bing-banger could score well. Averages soared, the rare 300 games became ho-hum, three game series scores were out of sight. Those in the know, such as myself, were not fooled and dissed the high average bowlers unless they proved themselves on neutral lanes. I stopped bowling because of this and obviously so did the majority of bowlers and the sport has declined.
It's the same with the Worlds. With the favorable conditions and the extra-lively ball (can I say "illegal"), the Worlds are no longer an accurate measure of a team's over-all superiority and have become a "joke" as you say. I will guess that the first pitcher in the future to be tragically killed by a combination of a composite bat and the Rock will be in Las Vegas and that event will change a lot about senior softball.

Discussion: Las Vegas World Tournament automatic seating
Dave, I agree with the recent change to seed the winners of East Coast and West Coast high into the brackets. It is a good incentive for those two winners to come to Vegas, not to mention try their best to win the respective "semi-final" tournaments. What is disappointing is to win one of those tournaments and not have the other Coast team show up. In that case, I'm not sure that randomly seeding the frustrated coast champion is the wisest approach. I would still seed them first in recognition of their accomplishment. Can make a good difference to be top seed in a hot weather tournament with uneven brackets. If other teams don't like it, they can try to win either East or West tournaments.

Discussion: Outfield conditions a BLD
My team has played at several Big League Dreams complexes in the past couple of years, and my overall impression is that they are having trouble earning a profit and thus prices keep going up for entry, captive audience food quality is not too good, fewer employees in the food area means slow service, and grounds maintenance suffers. This is most obvious in parks with natural turf outfields where mud holes can develop. On artificial infields, there can be maintenance issues in front of second and third base, especially, where younger users slide, and the pitcher's area can suffer from repeated usage.
That said, we had no outfield issues with the BLD fields we played on in Vegas. The dugout misters were a nice touch and kept the dugouts remarkably cool for 100+ heat. The only issue was that in one dugout, more than half of the mister heads malfunctioned and dripped water instead of misting and resulted in a dangerously slippery condition when stepping up out of the dugout. More than one of us slipped (no injury though).
I've seen much worse field conditions in other BLD than in Vegas, but it is irritating when you pay an extra $100 for field entry (including the women fans) above the expensive team entry fees and the fields are not in top shape.
Arroyo Grande fields were marvelous! Well maintained; great infields, nice fencing. Not enough shade in dugouts and pitching rubber set at 53 feet so ump had to watch carefully both front (allowed for 50 foot distance) and back.

Discussion: Original gray Miken Ultra (without center rod insert) VS. current MIken 2 piece endloads
Watched a longtime fellow player hit the ball farther with the gray Ultra than he ever did at a younger age (he was in his 60s), and once it was banned, he never reached that distance again, although he switched to the Ultra II. As Enviro-Vac notes, it is no good comparing his swing now to what it was a dozen years ago.

Discussion: Doc Romero
The restrooms are about a block away: round trip is 1/5 of a mile! Plan well my friends or give the wife the keys to the car. But this is not the most remote field. Played in a tournament on one field in Turlock, CA, where the ONLY restrooms were 1/4 mile away round trip. More than once a player was late for the start of a game when we played back to back. Prostate problems and far distant restrooms are a real challenge for over 65 players. My team greatly appreciates TDs who provide nearby PortaPotties (thank you SSUSA).

Discussion: Vendors at The Worlds
Check with your favorite vendors. I looked for mine last year and was told the vendor fees from the city were so high that some didn't bother to come (not to mention the locales spread out over the entire area). I was ready to buy shoes which really need to be tried on in my opinion, but no luck.

Discussion: Using one ball for all games
Fabe, there is more distance between a rock and a sock than one letter! I would guess that several balls are able to withstand the heat of Vegas (and other locations) without severe deterioration in performance. The Baden Fire is one, but there probably are others.
The Baden is nearly as hot as the Rock and so I agree with Mango that both change the game too dramatically, especially when used with composite bats.

Discussion: Question regarding Senior Recreation Leagues
We have three leagues in this area of northern California south of San Francisco.
The night league has a 50 minimum age, four teams, and all senior bats are allowed. However, the league voted to return to single walls to avoid having too many balls clear the fence, thus irritating neighbors. Very few players in this league over 60.
One day league has four teams, and again age minimum of 50, but integrates players all the way up and into their 80s. This league has a single wall only rule; double walls allowed for 70 and over; senior composites allowed for 75+. Mandated screen for pitchers.
The other day league also has four teams and the same rules as above. Some players participate in all three leagues.

Discussion: Using one ball for all games
Know what you mean about the Trump Stote. Hit it in a recent tournament on a hot afternoon and fielders kept moving in a step every inning! On the other hand, don't think the Trump Rock is a legal ball, only used at Vegas because of LVSSA tie-in. I have heard many complaints about the Rock because it is too lively (probably why it is illegal) and wears out fielders and makes a mockery of the game with so many long ball hitters and power shots through the infield. Might as well hit a tennis ball.

Discussion: Western Nationals 50 Major predictions
Sun fields are a constant complaint and a serious one. My team does not not play in a couple of tournaments every year because of the number of sun fields and whether you are squinting into the sun to try and hit it or dangerously trying to field the ball, it is not really competitive softball but luck ball.
You can bet as a pitcher, I love to have the sun directly behind me. Last time that happened my catcher pointed to the sun before each inning and I dropped it out of the sun. Struck out 6 or 7 or 8why keep track on a joke game. And it isn't just for 20 minutes. On that field we were hitting blind for a full six innings. In the bottom of the sixth, we could finally see the ball a bit (and some of us were wearing welders glasses), and the other team didn't get a look until their top of the seventh. We were ahead 1 to nothing for 5 innings on a couple of fluke hits; a guy on the other team got the first legitimate hita home run!!! to tie the game; we went ahead 3 to 1 being able to see the ball in the 6th; and the other team got a couple of hits but no runs in the top of the 7th. For two major teams, that was a travesty as unchained44 said.
It's a difficult problem. Avoiding a field for sun is tough to schedule. When it is dangerous, I think it should be a must and not just a screen for a pitcher. The middle fielder, short, and second base all have safety issues with a hard hit ball. Never mind the outfielders who might not see the ball but are not likely to get killed trying to field it. The best solutions seems to just start all teams later in the morning and accept fewer teams in the tournament.
Dealing with the sun issue at sunset is exactly the same problem, but by that time, most teams are willing to delay the game until the sun changes position because it only means getting home a bit later and doesn't throw the whole day's schedule off.

Discussion: Religious ceremonies at tournaments
Haven't had the opportunity to be part of prayer on the softball field in recent years, but 20-30 years ago, one team in our rec league started it and soon all the teams were praying before and sometimes after games. Don't remember if the ump was invited.
Most of the guys gathered together. It was usually short. It was almost always a prayer for playing our best and good sportsmanship and always a prayer for any player who got hurt during the game. Very inoffensive. Hard to see how anyone could be bothered by it or feel someone was "pushing" their religion or "preaching" at them.
Best benefits were it always diffused any bad feelings from a play on the field and it gave players on both teams the perspective that there is more to being fellow neighbors than softball.

Discussion: VEGAS FIELDS
It's not just Vegas, it is most scoreboards at most parks. Seems like there is seldom any daytime staff to work the scoreboards and it is a rare umpire who is interested in doing it himself. Even Big League Dreams often have scoreboards that are non-functional. I agree that this has little to do with field quality, but it has something to do with overall quality.

Discussion: Which Sports Do More Americans Participate In?
Sparky.1, thanks for the information. Extremely interesting. What should be of concern to readers of this forum is the rapid decline of slow-pitch softball in the past decade. If we lose the younger ones now, I doubt if they will start to play again once the half-century mark comes around. Very troubling.
I have expressed my opinion many times on this forum that I believe the lessening of standards and conditions (particularly the composite bat and its consequences) is very much a part of the reason that senior softball has plateaued, and if you count how many more men have entered the golden years, it is actually declining as a participation sport.
I make the analogy to bowling. Back in the day, I was a top-rank bowler. Within a 15 minute drive in the suburbs where I live, I could bowl at nine establishments. Now there is one, ONE!, in that circle of 15 minutes. What happened? In order to make more bowlers think they were really good, lighter pins became the norm; sideboards were bouncier for more pin action; lanes were goosed to head the ball toward the pocket. Result? When I had the highest average in the County (14 bowling alleys), a 200 average was rare (there were about 6-10 in the County). When I lost interest in the too easy conditions and stopped bowling, a 200 average was rather commonplace. And already within 5 years, three bowling alleys closed. Bit by bit they went broke as serious bowlers lost interest due to the soft conditions. Now there are 3 establishments in the entire County! How many teams will there be in softball within ten years?

Discussion: Hitting from tee vs. hitting pitched ball
I think a major factor in hitting the ball farther in a game versus a tee, is the quality of the ball. An extreme example: I bat leadoff for my team. In some games, I am the FIRST to hit the game ball. It is brand new, just out of the box, nothing has softened it up. Along about the fifth inning, most game balls are noticeably softening. And in our local tournaments, if you foul the ball off with a long fly over the fence, the backup ball is the 7-inning used ball from the previous game!
Most guys hitting off a tee (or batting practice for that matter) do not use balls that have no more than 50 hits on themit's too expensive! I've hit some real socks during batting practice. Doesn't bother me much because I am just trying to get my swing right and loosen up, and I can tell from the feel whether I hit the ball well, even if it doesn't reach the deeper fielders. Come game time, especially morning games, if I hit the ball on the sweet spot I expect it to FLY.

Discussion: ARC OF THE PITCHED BALL
k man, lucky you if you were able to play with unlimited arc for a "few years". In our area, it lasted one year. Best year pitching of my life. This wasn't senior softball, so I still had to land behind the plate and make it seem that it went through the high zone of the batter, but I had more strikeouts, more low-scoring games, than ever in my 63 years of pitching! What a blast!
But, of course, there were howls from batters about how hard it was to hit, "ruining the game" etc. I was amazed at the number of players that evidently can't hit a fungo. Anyway, the rule changed back to the old limit of 12 feet after one season and the whining hitters returned to the slugfest (such as it was then with wooden and single-wall aluminum bats).
I'd love to see a rule change back to unlimited arc. Would be a great pitcher protection step. I could stroll back to second after the pitch and be ready to field any shot up the middle. But it seems unlikely to happen as evidently the young-un's are already complaining about 12 feet as being too difficult. Final step in this direction? T-Ball.

Discussion: Best ball in Hot Weather
Webbie25, I know by his reputation that Steve Imlay is one of those true boomers that can clear the fence with any ball. When he said "almost no home runs" I took that to mean that there were probably home runs every game, and no doubt by Steve, just not the quantity that he was used to. Just like the Stotes that we hit in Sacramento in the afternoon. Doesn't change my opinion: Steve hits one out I admire and cheer; pipsqueak like me hits one outtime to change the bats/balls to bring some sanity back to the game.

Discussion: Best ball in Hot Weather
Sacramento was 105 one day and the Stote definitely did not hold up as the temperature rose.
However, with the overly hot bats that have dominated the last 10 years, I'm not upset that we aren't seeing multiple home runs every game. The game seems more balanced and fun when outfielders are involved every game and infielders have a chance to contribute.
My suggestion would be to go to a 52/300 that holds up well, not changes as the heat and humidity rise. It seems to have less impact on a body when a fielder is struck, but travels about as well as the Stote when the temperature rises.
The Baden Fireball does hold up well as has been proved tournament after tournament in the summer in northern California where it is the ball of choice. However, it is nearly as lively as the Rock, and for that reason, not a favorite of mine for tournament play. Find a 52/300 that holds up for consistent performance and let teams adjust to a game where only true sluggers can put the ball out.

Postmaster retires from Benton post office
Wednesday, June 1, 2011
BENTON, Mo. -- After 33 years and eight months of employment, Benton's postmaster has retired from the U.S. Postal Service.
"I'm really going to miss the people," said Danny Kern, who has worked at the Benton branch since 1996. Before that, he was a postmaster in Gordonville and Anniston, Mo., and began his career with the Postal Service as a part-time clerk in Chaffee, Mo.
While Kern said he's seen a lot of changes in his time with the postal service, technology -- specifically computers -- was the biggest.
"What used to take us a week or so to get done is practically instantaneous now," he said. For instance, financial information used to be turned in quarterly but is now submitted every night, Kern said.
"That's one of the reasons I'm getting out of here -- technology has passed me by," Kern said with a laugh.
In addition to keeping the books, it's Kern's job to ensure mail is forwarded, drum up business for the post office and more. He manages a staff with two rural route drivers, a postmaster relief and two substitute route drivers.
"It's gotten so busy now that it's hard to carry on a conversation [with customers] like you used to," Kern said.
And those brief conversations, along with Kern's friendliness, are what a lot of the people who work with him on practically a daily basis said they'll miss.
"If he had time and I had time, we always would share a few words," said Beverly Riley, a Benton resident who also works in the county clerk's office. "I'll really miss seeing him there."
Riley said that Kern was dependable and helpful.
"No matter what you took to him, you could count on it going out that day," she said. Kern was also quite helpful during elections, making sure all absentee ballots were sent, and also made it back to their office.
Benton City Clerk Connie Barnett said that Kern living nearby in New Hamburg was a plus, because he knew most of those for whom he was handling mail, and could correct any addresses.
"He was always there to get the job done and be a friendly face," she said.
During his years at the Benton Post Office, Kern said he built a relationship with several of the town's citizens.
"I've known a lot of good people," he said. "I always miss them after they've passed away."
Kern had some pretty big shoes to fill when he took over, as another longtime postmaster in Benton had just retired.
"He made the transition so much easier," said Barnett.
Now, many of the town's residents are in high hopes that Kern's replacement will be just as good.
For the time being, however, Mike Essner, postmaster at Oran, will take over. He'll be in charge at Benton until a new postmaster is appointed, said Kern.
As customers said goodbye to the postmaster on Friday, he assured them he'll be nearby. "I'm not going away," he told one woman in the lobby.
Kern said he's unsure what he'll do in retirement yet, but is sure he'll find something to do.
His summer is already booked, though.
"My wife already has a list of things for me to do," he said.
Pertinent address:
Benton, MO

Of demons and aliens
Posted on Wednesday, 11 July, 2012 |

Taylor Reints
Creatures are believed to be real to those whom have seen them, but not to those whom haven't. Creatures of odd affinities and unknown relationships not known to the rest of the world. Cryptids. We should be familiar with this term already. Some cryptids are stranger than others. For example, the Cherufe is a humanoid capable of withstanding the enormous temperatures of magma inside volcanoes. The Orang Pendek is a three-foot-tall version of Bigfoot. And the Rake — it is a bald, reptile-like humanoid. But is it creepypasta or cryptid? If the former, can it be a linked to a creature with a real identity?
The Rake is more of internet story-telling than anything. Web movies have been made about it. It is creepypasta, a short story originally posted on the internet to unnerve the reader. However, there are some hardcore believers in the Rake. Videos and pictures of encounters with Rake-like creatures are all over the internet. Alien-like creatures all over YouTube (most of them clearly faked), people claiming that what is depicted is nothing more than the Rake. Is there actually some good evidence, however? At 1:44 a.m., on November 30, 2010, a deer hunter captured the below photograph in Louisiana.
Some claim that what is in the image could be the Dover Demon, a cryptid not reported since April of 1977. However, there are proponents for the idea that this anomaly is a Rake. For example, in a YouTube video showing a news report about the photograph, the only two top comments read, "THE RAKE!" and "That was The Rake." Could the Rake be a real animal (or alien)?
One explanation for the photograph was that it was a viral marketing campaign for Insomniac Games. One tweet by Insomniac Games said, "Whoops… looks like one got out. If you see a grim on the loose… please return to Insomniac Games, Burbank, CA [...]" with a link to a news article covering the mysterious picture.* One more explanation is that it was a marketing scheme for the upcoming film Super 8.
One blogger found that the photograph's origins can be traced back to a thread on the ArcheryTalk.com forum. The supposed owner of the camera posted the image along with another. Both of these photos were taken at the same locale.
But there is something one comment on the thread highlights:
LOL…you guys are funny! look at the little tree (Bush) to the left…the image with the deer is supposed to be 9 days diff than that of the boogyman…yes in both images all the leaves are exactly the same…wind has not moved them at all or even ruffled them. case close…you can all put away your security blankets.
Additionally, a file decoding program yielded the fact that the image was edited. To add to this fact, another comment on the thread says this:
Download both pictures, although EXIF data is missing from both pictures you can clearly tell the mystery photo was manipulated as it's pixel size is different.
The deer photo is 1797 x 1348 px.
The mystery photo is 1705 x 1279 px.
Digital cameras at a given resolution always capture the same size image. The file size may vary given JPEG compression but the image size should be a constant in pixels.
Next up, pull the photos into an editor, use the curves tool to blow up exposure. Notice around the head of the 'boogey man' has a black blur around it? That's a blending job at work in photoshop. See how the deer doesn't have that going on.
Creatures similar to the Rake that are actually based off of sightings and mythology include the Memegwesi, Mannegishi and the Dover Demon. The Memegwesi is a Chippewa (Ojibwa) creature of myth. It is described as being a small (even described as child-sized), hairy, large-headed water spirit. It is sometimes even said to have a narrow face and no nose and make a strange noise. The Mannegishi is myth of the Cree Indians in eastern Canada. It is said to be small, human-like and have slender legs and arms, of which two hands have six fingers each. It has a large, round and bald head with large eyes. Although, it lacks any nose, similar to some descriptions of the Memegwesi.
The Dover Demon is a cryptid with features most similar to the Mannegishi. This was first noted by Karl Shuker in 1996. The first sighting, made by three teenagers driving their car, yielded visions of a pale-skinned, hairless, large-headed, almost extraterrestrial-like entity with orange glowing eyes and slender arms and legs. It lacked a nose and a mouth. Another sighting occurred within an hour and another one the next morning. This time, the creature was described with green eyes, gray skin, and it was about as tall as a three-year-old. It cried a bloodcurdling sound, and those whom saw it said it was similar to both a hawk's screech and a snake's hiss. An odd call is also present in descriptions of the Memegwesi. There are no more than three sightings of the Dover Demon, of which all took place in Dover, Massachusetts between April 21 and April 22, 1977.
I am intrigued with the possibility that the Rake is actually based upon stories of the Dover Demon, Memegwesi and the Mannegishi. Foremost, the similarities between the Mannegishi and the Dover Demon are truly astounding and demand an explanation.
I've compiled a map displaying locations for where the Rake, Memegwesi, Mannegishi, and the Dover Demon live. Additionally, it shows where the hoaxed photograph mentioned earlier was taken.

We're excited and proud to launch Thingiverse Apps. Learn More about what this means to you.
This is a pinch valve for 6mm silicon tubing, made from laser-cut 3mm acrylic, stacked and held together with machine screws. It's ideal for controlling the flow of air, water, fruit juice, hard liquor, or whatever you desire. It's ideal for controlling the flow of stuff you don't want to risk contaminating with a regular valve, and as a result it's intrinsically food-safe.
Power and control is provided by a lightweight '9g' hobby servo; the silicon tubing is simply a push-fit into the top of the valve arrangement.
The photos and video are of an earlier prototype; the uploaded design is slightly refined, but functionally identical.
You can see it in action here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4raXnoKUtow
Bolts must be at least the length specified, but can be longer. If you find M2 screws longer than 12mm for an affordable price, let me know, though!
The servo I used is a Hextronik HXT900, but pretty much any cheap 9g micro servo will work. Some may require some changes to the bottom 2 layers to fit their housings.
Congratulations, you've assembled a pinch valve! Give it a try!
No results.

Is there any reason this couldn't be 3D printed rather than laser cut?
No, a 3d printed version would work fine. I only design for laser cutters because that's what I find most convenient.
Stupid question, but I'm assuming that the scale to print is 1:1 units to mm, I plan on using this for a final project so I need it to work
Hey, I've built this one but it's not quite working. I think it might be the tubing, got any advice on that? Do you have specification for the tubing you used? Thanks!
You want the very flexible, thin-walled silcone aquarium tubing - not the thick-walled, tough plastic stuff. Where did you source yours?
I got mine from a medical supplies store (Clear Plastic (PVC) Tubing 3/16" I.D. x 1/4" O.D. (wall thickness 1/32")).
Also, I didn't use the washers from step 6, do you think they may make a big difference?
Thank you very much for the quick answer!
2M screws longer than 12mm for affordable price:
You could conceivably control the flow rate by opening it half-way; I haven't tried. How accurate your dispensing is depends on how reliable your flow rate is and how accurately you can measure what's dispensed. The valve itself opens and closes very quickly.
Thanks. Have ordered some servos so will give it a go. Will let you know the results.
Can you change the flow rate or is it just on/off? How accurate did you estimate you could dose?
Love it!
Where did you get the pump you use in the video?
It's the mechanism out of a battery powered aquarium pump (yes, they exist). They're pretty useful, because they run off 1.5 or 3 volts, are cheap (this one cost me $10), and as you can see from the water levels, have a decent flow rate.
Very cool. The medical profession and the cocktail robotics enthusiasts will both appreciate this!

PROVO -- Provo shoppers looking for Walmart prices? Your wish has been granted. Walmart has announced they will be opening a new Neighborhood Market at 2255 N. University Parkway -- filling the vacated Fresh Market store.
According to Bill Peperone, Provo city planner, an application has been made by Nearon Enterprises, Danville, Calif., owner of the Parkway strip mall where the store is located, for a site plan change. Those changes include the addition of the Walmart market.
"There will be few changes to the look of the store outside," Peperone said. He noted the outside facade won't look much different than just adding the Walmart sign to it.
The Neighborhood Markets are meant to be smaller and are for shoppers who like fewer crowds and quicker checkout lines. The stores include a full line of groceries and a number of other products. They are usually about a third of the size of the Walmart big box stores like the one farther west on University Parkway, across from Utah Valley University.
The Parkway location features 44,079 square feet of space. While an opening date has not been announced, Nearon will not have to go through the city's planning commission or municipal council for approvals because the retail space has already been used as a grocery store and it fits the zoning requirements.

France's Louvre Museum Joined the "History-Distortion Business Club"Breaking News
Kargar noted that French archeologists became pioneers of excavations in Iran after reaching an agreement with the Qajar dynasty (1787-1921 AD). However, after the 1979 revolution in Iran, they began working in Iran's neighboring countries, particularly newly formed Arab states, which provided appropriate financial opportunities, he added.
The money the Arabs spent to pay the archeological mercenaries created some expectations, one of them being the alteration of the name of the Persian Gulf, he explained.
"Most important research centers in the heart of Paris are run by France and Saudi Arabia. Several months ago, Paris played host to an exhibition of Arab civilization, which was opened by Jacques Chirac and King Abdullah of Jordan," he explained. Contradictory but not so surprisingly despite the fact that the exhibition was called "Arab civilization", majority of artifacts on show were Persian.

Richard Andrew Kane - 12/21/2006
When I lived in Saudi Arabia in the 1980s newspapers and maps always referred to the Persian Guld as Arabian Gulf. But the maps showed the area south of Lebanon as Palestine. Occasionally there was a hint of a Zionist entity somewhere nearby but the name Israel never appeared.
During the first Gulf War coallition forces were hosted in Saudi Arabia until Kuwait was freed. All the TV coverage had TV commentators including the US Military officers speaking only of the Persian Gulf, and that is the name on their maps. The Saudis continually protested that it was Arabian Gulf and it people could not learn that they should leave Saudi immediately. They never did.
Discussion of any political matter in the Middle East is like science fiction: it requires a suspension of reality to use the right code words.
All of this would be just funny if the strident Iranian article did not allude to the territory of the Gulf states as being Persian (i.e.Iranian) soil. Is the present Iranian regime teaching the young that they rightfully claim land now occupied by other states? This would be the seed of a future war....or perhaps a later stage of the war Bush 43 has ignited.

Here's the question you clicked on:
A cylinder can is to have a volume of 900 cm cubed. The metal costs $15.50/squared meter. What dimensions produce a can with minimum cost? What is the cost of making the can?
Am I doing it right?
I see an issue with your derivative.
please point it out
\(\cfrac{27900}{r}=27900r^{-1}\) Use this second form of it and the exponent rules you know and see what you get.
i get |dw:1371523952498:dw|
Yes. Your other part, the \(+62\pi r\) is fine, so now add those fractions up and see where you go.
Your mistake was in how you took the derivative of that. Other than that, the next steps looked pretty good, but got fowled up by involving the wrong C'.
Was the c' was wrong due to my wrong derivative?
You come up with a new, reduced equation? In your first one, you elimitated the \(r^2\) on the bottom. In this, there is a little more you can cancel out. The 62.
the r^2 cancel out. what else
Well, it does not really cancel... it is because there is a 0 on the other side that it does not matter.
\[\huge 0=62\pi r-27900 \]
and then I just solve for 'r' ?
Now, what if you multiply through by 1/62?
cant I do |dw:1371526627893:dw|
Forgot your cube.
Ah, in the earlier one too. You can't cancel the part of the \(r^3\) above. Like I said, it is not that it cancels but that it does not matter.
ohhh okay let me fix that
\(62\pi r^3 - 27900=0\)
theres a denominator too right ^
Because if the top of the fraction is 0, it is 0. Only if the bottom woulc cause an asymptote does it matter....
cant i just multiply the equation by r^2 to get rid of the denominator
oh okay, so i only focus on the top
So like mathematically on my paper that my prof would mark i would just ignore it, like cant i be docked marks ?
Yah. Mathematically, it is the same as multiplying through by \(r^2\) because the right hand side is 0 so \(0\times r^2=0\) means it does not change.
I have the entire reducing this fraction in long form with every step. Just finished writing it up. So I'll post it when we get there and you can check what you have against it.
Okay thanks for that, ill check it as soon as i finish !! :D
Well, solve for the root, and tell me what you get. Then I'll post what I got, what I did, and even a graph that shows some things.
would I leave the calculator in radians?
Does not matter. No degrees involved.
the pi ?
pi is a constant, not an angle. So yah. \[\cfrac{62\pi r^3 - 27900}{r^2}=0\implies \\ \\ r^2\times\cfrac{62\pi r^3 - 27900}{r^2}=r^2\times0\implies \\ \\ 62\pi r^3 - 27900=0\implies \\ \\ \cfrac{1}{62}\times(62\pi r^3 - 27900)=\cfrac{1}{62}\times0\implies \\ \\ \pi r^3 - 450=0\implies \\ \\ \pi r^3 - 450+450=0+450\implies \\ \\ \pi r^3 =450\implies \\ \\ \cfrac{1}{\pi}\pi r^3 =\cfrac{1}{\pi}450\implies \\ \\ r^3 =\cfrac{450}{\pi}\implies \\ \\ \sqrt[3]{ r^3} =\sqrt[3]{ \cfrac{450}{\pi}}\implies \\ \\ r =\sqrt[3]{ \cfrac{450}{\pi}} \]And in the graph you can see how what I start with and end with both overlap, and they are 0 right where you said, about 5.23. https://www.desmos.com/calculator/mz0fk3daat
Oh my, thank you SO much !
now can I plug this r value intto my cost equation ?
Here is another interesting point that is very good to know for these types of problems. Let's take the test points of 5 and 6 and put them into \(\pi r^3 - 450\) \(\pi (5)^3 - 450\approx -57\) \(\pi (6)^3 - 450\approx 229\) So as x is increasing, this is moving from negative, to zero, then positive. That means the original equation has a slope there that is negative, bottoms out, then goes positive. This confirms that what you found is a minimum!
Yes, you can put that r into the original.
ohhh, i can pick any two numbers?
Well, close numbers are best for this sort of test. They just become test points on each side of the critical point to confirm if it is a min or max. If you cross over two critical points, that sort of test is invalid. but we only have one critical point, so it is no big deal.
I do see one big thing to be careful of in all of this.
"A cylinder can is to have a volume of 900 cm cubed." \(\leftarrow\) in cm. "The metal costs $15.50/squared meter." \(\leftarrow\) in m! Watch out for your units!
thanks for the heads up !
Oops. made a mistake there... I put cm cubed, but it is squared. Because 1m = 100 cm, so square both and you get: \(1m^2=10000cm^2\) The cubic relationship here is: \(900 cm^3 = .0009 m^3\) So you need to be careful because you found the radius in cm. So your can will be in cm.
I know, i still understood what you were saying :P
\[\large C=7998.49m^2\]
\(\cfrac{$15.50}{10000cm^2}\times 5.23cm^2\) The \(cm^2\) cancels....
15.50 x 1000= 15,500
So like $0.0081 per can.... less than a penny each. Make sure you got the units right in the original, but if so, this is like the bulk manufacture of soda can...
back of the book says $0.80 each
Hmmm... I must have converted wrong somewhere.
I don't see where though... odd.... because that would be like it was a linear conversion and this is a square conversion.
Ah! Remembered. R needs to go back into the formula!
\(\cfrac{1800}{r}+2\pi r^2\implies \cfrac{1800}{5.23}+2\pi (5.23)^2=????\) That makes much more sense!
Yes, that got me something that will round to 80 cents.
thanks !!
Yah, it also explains where I made a mistake. I put it back into the wrong equation! I took the linear radius when I needed the square surface area! Be very careful of that.

Online advertising expenditures will increase 25.0 percent during 2004, and will continue to grow at the same muscular pace throughout 2005, according to Robert Coen, senior vice president of Universal McCann.
In a year when the presidential election and the Olympics were expected to add an extra kick to advertising sales overall, the 25.0 percent year-over-year growth figure for online spending ($7.1 billion) is significantly higher than McCann had originally forecast for 2004. The group previously projected year-over-year growth of 10.0 percent in the sector this year.
For Internet advertising to sustain that rate into a less event-charged year comes as a strikingly bullish signal for the maturation of the sector, which will continue to outstrip the growth in advertising overall, Coen said.
"The Internet continues to boom and surge, and faster than I had expected," said Coen. "While I believe it will have to plateau at some point, we are projecting 25 percent growth in 2005 as well."
The double-digit growth figure is 3.5 times the year-over-year growth rate for advertising overall in 2005, which Coen projects will be 7.4 percent.
Coen delivered his December report at an annual Media and Telecom Week conference put on by Credit Suisse First Boston at the Plaza Hotel in New York City on Monday.
He attributed the better-than-expected growth this year to a number of factors, including the robust numbers put into search advertising; continued growth in the economy; as well as the maturation of the medium overall, led by Yahoo and Google "demonstrating the value of not only hits, but clicks."
"I've been hearing about this since the 90s," Coen said. "But we project that online advertising spending will continue to expand and evolve, generating even higher percentages of overall ad spending in the next couple of years." The report comes amid other signs of consistent and stable growth in the sector in 2004, including an AdZone report that estimated online ad sales at $6.25 billion for the first three quarters of 2004.

In Wiesel's uncensored Hebrew 'Night' manuscript, unveiled here for the first time, the author expresses desire to take revenge on the Hungarians, lashes out at fellow Jews and describes sexual scenes from the train to Auschwitz.03:47 01.05.16 | 5 comments
the holocaust/shoa was very criminal and never should have happened. hitler in reality hated every race or people except the aryan, germanic or herrenrasse/masterrace. he did not only killed 6 million jews but he also killed millions of other "untermenschen". he also killed at least 27 million russians/soviets, almost half of the number of the people, who were killed in the second world war. the russians have suffered gigantic sacrefices to defeat the so-called "ubermensch" and warcriminal adolf hitler. anti-semitism, racism, supremacism and speaking about ubermenschen and untermenschen and hatred to whatever people(s) or human being(s) is very bad and evil. history teaches us what the consequences can be. peace and hapiness to all of us.

Small Restaurant, Big Flavor! My wife and I had lunch at Skillet, and we were very impressed. This intimate restaurant serving locally produced food has a nice vibe. There were families with babies, people in their sixties and young couples. The tables were close enough t...morehat we were able to talk to the couple at the next table, and they turned out to be regulars at Skillet. In spite of being packed, it was not too loud, and the music was mostly unobtrusive. I take apple cider for granted, but the cider served at Skilliet is the best I've ever had. Not too sweet, with a wonderful flavor ($3 for a tall glass). My "pot roast" shredded turkey was moist and yummy, and the gravy tasted homemade, as did the mashed potatoes. My wife's pulled pork was also fine, and her macaroni was spiced an unexpected kick of hot pepper. Great flavor, and not salty. Our entrees each cost around $13. The path to the one bathroom is through the kitchen, and I noticed that the kitchen is spotlessly clean. We'll be back! Michael Armstrong Bexley, Ohioview less

Food is fantastic,try their signature sandwich, the Undertaker.It has huge portions of thier roast beef, cheese,and coleslaw.It is a meal, you will …
My only gripe with this place is that they have delicious, self-serve coffee outside for the people patiently waiting for a table, but you can't add it to your tab if you partake. I never carry cash so I had to run to an ATM just to make sure I didn't end up on Santa's naugh...morety list this year. Other than that, it's heaven. The food is excellent, and the portions are more than generous. This is hearty, southern-style comfort food right in the heart of Ohio! Can't wait to hit it up again, but I will be sure to have a couple bills in my pocket before I get there :)view less
I personally work there and I have tried their pizza and I have to say it, it taste GREAT! No, the dough isn't self made but gotta say, it taste just as good. Your pizza is made FRESH OUT THE OVEN. You don't have to wait no more than 20 mins. They have Dip and Dots (Tiny bal...morels of ice cream) which comes in a pretty big size for a reasonable price (best price you can get for dip and dots). So please stop by ZEETO'S PIZZA BY THE SLICE and pick up your on pizza soon, kay?!view less

AIPAC (or at least The Israel Lobby) is vetting appointees to the Obama Administration, at least according to Haaretz. How could they have missed this? An anti-Zionist Jewish academic will now have access to the highest levels of the US gov't. Where's Abe Foxman when we need him?
