Goodsprings Cemetery
this wiki
Fallout: New Vegas locations project
This article is within the scope of the Fallout: New Vegas locations project. This project is dedicated to standardizing Fallout: New Vegas location articles. For participation, please check the project page.
I was out for a stroll that night when I heard the commotion up at the old bone orchard. Saw what looked link a bunch of bad eggs, so I laid low."— Victor
Goodsprings Cemetery is a graveyard located northeast of Goodsprings town.
The cemetery consists of 29 graves (5 of which can be exhumed), some makeshift fencing which marks the cemetery border, and a large water-tower that stands as a visual landmark at its northern most edge. The grave site meant for the burial of the Courier is located at the north side of the cemetery.
Located at the back of the graveyard near the Water Tower are warning signs reading "Keep Out". The signs are referring to the valley below to the east, a dangerous area prolific with giant radscorpions. Another dangerous area is the road to the west of the cemetery that leads north out of town towards the Tribal Village. Many cazadores can be found on the road. At various points along the road their nests can be clearly seen attached to the rock-faces above.
List of graves
Notable loot
- Snowglobe - Goodsprings at the grave closest to the Water Tower, next to the tombstone
- Ten distinctive cigarette butts can be found around your grave. These are shown to Swank as evidence against Benny in Ring-a-Ding-Ding!.
Related quests
- If you purchase a shovel at the general store (or grab the one at Goodsprings Source), you can exhume the graves for random loot.
- Goodsprings Cemetery is one of the four Goodsprings locations (the others being Goodsprings, Goodsprings Source, and Goodsprings Cave) that make up the tutorial area. The tutorial boundary exists whether or not the player accepts Sunny Smiles' offer of training.
- The cemetery's lone broc flower only spawns after initiating the tutorial quest: By a Campfire on the Trail. Four non-respawning bloatflies will appear as well.
- When standing near an exhumed grave, you can hear a ghostly whisper.
Goodsprings Cemetery only appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Jim Harbaugh's former quarterback outplayed his current one, hands down. Andrew Luck threw for 164 yards and ran for a 6 - yard touchdown while facing college coach Jim Harbaugh for the first time and the Indianapolis Colts defeated the San Francisco 49'ers 27 - 7 on Sunday.
Trent Richardson scored a 1 - yard touchdown on his first carry in his Colts debut after being acquired on Wednesday from the Browns. He was drafted two spots behind top pick Luck at number three last year.
Ahmad Bradshaw added a 1 - yard touchdown run in the final minutes, and Adam Vinatieri kicked a pair of field goals before missing a 51 - yarder early in the fourth. But, Luck came through again to give Indianapolis more opportunities and help the Colts improve to 2 - 1.
It was Colin Kaepernick's his first home loss at Candlestick Park as a starter.

A father says the untimely death of his son is helping bring his small community together.
Daneil McClees of Columbia, Tyrrell County, died Saturday when Highway Patrol says the 29-year-old sped through a stop sign, ran off the road into a wheat field, and his car burst into flames in Beaufort County.
McClees' father says the outpouring of support has been overwhelming with friends of those involved in the crash creating a memorial and holding candlelight vigils.
Bobby Jay Moore, 23-years-old, was also killed. Two others were injured and remain in the hospital, though they're expected to recover.
Troopers say speed and alcohol were factors in the crash.
McClees' was Wednesday night in Columbia.

scott's fairy stressed
This is my first post, I am from Puerto Rico, I understand english perfect but maybe my writing skills are not the best ones so sorry if something here is wrong. I have a 80 gallon tank, I have two clownfishes, one yellow tang. I buyed last week a Scott's Fairy Wrasse. I was doing well, swimming all over the thank, I know they hire a lot, specially in the acclimatation process. The thing is that in tuesday we put the lunar lights to start introducing corals to the tank. All the fishes were very stressed with the change of lights. The are all showing again except for the scott's fairy, he has been reclusive since them, even when I feed them. Today is friday, I am worry that he will day been reclusive and not getting out. Please tell me if I have to be worried, how much time he can be reclusive and if I have to make something to make him comming out again?
I'm sure he'll come out again for you :D
I have personally found that there is less drastic change in the lighting if the aquarist turns on the moonlight tubes whilst there is still daylight remaining. This way, the fish can adjust better than if they were plunged straight out of the brightness of a white tube into the blue of a moonlight tube.
Do you know what i mean? i think i said that ok! lol :?
So what your saying is that you haven't seen him. Do you have starfish, live rock, etc. The fish could have possible passed away, or jump out of the tank.
What are you talking about with moonlight tubes? Do you mean blue actinic flouresents or LED moon lights.
I meant marine blue actinics. I merely guessed the guy had got daylight and moonlight effect lights
I thought that was it, but wasn't sure. I have a 24 hr light system. So I get the effect of every part of the day. But never ran into this problam, and I've moved m marine tank around 6x's since february. Hopefully it will surface.
Ahh, so you have the lights fading into one another? No sharp cut-off between day and night? Perhaps Ivan would think about looking into this, it may solve his problem.... :D
At 11:oo am my blues come on then noon my daylights come on, then at 7:00pm my days cut off then at 8:00 my blues cut off and the moon lights come on. Its less stress on the fish.

A Jennings County man faces charges of aggravated battery with serious injury and neglect related to an incident Thursday that left an 18-month-old child in critical condition, police report.
Ryan James Shelley, 27, North Vernon, was arrested Friday morning in connection with the incident reported in the 1400 block of Almond Avenue, according to a news release from the Jennings County Sheriff's Department.
The incident that led to Shelley's arrest began when police and emergency personnel were sent to the home after dispatch received a call that a baby had fallen off a kitchen counter and was unconscious.
Police reported responding officers began CPR on the child, and she was immediately airlifted to Kosair Children's Hospital in Louisville, Ky.
Investigators interviewed both Shelley and the mother of the child at the scene, police said. Shelley is the boyfriend of the child's mother.
Shelley initially told police he was alone with the child and her older brother when the girl fell off of the counter, hitting the kitchen floor. The mother returned to the Shelley residence from across the street, and the 911 call was made.
Major Jerry Shepherd, Lt. Brian Talkington and Detective Sgt. James Blevins went to the hospital where they spoke with doctors who informed them the injuries were not consistent with the information they had been given at the scene.
Police said doctors reported the injuries the child sustained were consistent with having been shaken forcefully and not an injury from a fall from a counter.
The child remains in the critical intensive care unit at Kosair on full life support.
On Friday morning, officers went to Shelley's home at 1481 Almond Ave. Police said Shelley was found hiding in a rear bedroom closet of his home when deputies entered the residence. He was taken into custody without incident and taken to the Jennings County Jail.
During an interview, police said Shelley admitted the child did not fall off the counter but that he had grabbed the child and had forcibly shaken her because she would not stop crying. This admission by Shelley was consistent with what doctors had told investigators previously about the child's injuries, police said.
Shelly was booked into the jail on preliminary charges of felony aggravated battery with serious injury and felony neglect. An initial hearing has not been set.
More charges are anticipated after officers present their case to Jennings County Prosecutor Alan Marshall's office for review, police said.

A perfect partner for DNA extraction
25 September 2007
'Mass-production of DNA and RNA in industry' is the future offered by researchers at Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan, who are using modified DNA molecules to catch and contain specific sequences of DNA. The DNA molecules in this pure form can be used to identify genetic problems that cause disease and in the future could be used as drugs.
Single-stranded DNA in aqueous solution can be extracted into an organic phase using DNA-surfactants
Surfactants have distinct hydrophilic and hydrophobic sections. When surfactants are extracted into oil they form clusters called reverse micelles, which are spherical structures that hide their hydrophilic heads in the centre of a hydrophobic shell.
The Japanese researchers found that DNA molecules that hybridised with the DNA-surfactant became part of the hydrophilic core of reverse micelles and so could be extracted into oil. DNA molecules that were not perfect partners to the DNA-surfactant weren't hybridised and were left behind, along with any other hydrophilic biomolecules that might otherwise have contaminated the DNA.
Paschalis Alexandridis, a surfactant expert at the State University of New York at Buffalo said, 'I am very pleased to see the recognition capabilities of DNA being applied to the practical - and scaleable - setting of reverse micellar extraction.'
Maruyama's team say the potential for mass production of high purity DNA is 'of great importance'. The team foresees that their procedure will help reduce the cost of these highly-specific DNA molecules, which are expected to find use as analytical tools and drugs in the near future.

The GATA family zinc finger transcription factors GATA4 and GATA6 are known to play important roles in the development of the pancreas. In mice, both Gata4 and Gata6 are required for pancreatic development. In humans, GATA6 haploinsufficiency can cause pancreatic agenesis and heart defects. Congenital heart defects also are common in patients with GATA4 mutations and deletions, but the role of GATA4 in the developing human pancreas is unproven. We report five patients with deletions (n = 4) or mutations of the GATA4 gene who have diabetes and a variable exocrine phenotype. In four cases, diabetes presented in the neonatal period (age at diagnosis 1–7 days). A de novo GATA4 missense mutation (p.N273K) was identified in a patient with complete absence of the pancreas confirmed at postmortem. This mutation affects a highly conserved residue located in the second zinc finger domain of the GATA4 protein. In vitro studies showed reduced DNA binding and transactivational activity of the mutant protein. We show that GATA4 mutations/deletions are a cause of neonatal or childhood-onset diabetes with or without exocrine insufficiency. These results confirm a role for GATA4 in normal development of the human pancreas.

Sex scandal: no risk to ObamaThu, 26 Apr 2012 7:32 AM
US Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano assured probing senators on Wednesday that the Secret Service agent misconduct in Colombia never jeopardised President Barack Obama's safety.
Napolitano pledged a thorough investigation into the prostitution row that overshadowed the Summit of the Americas in the Caribbean resort of Cartagena, but said she and Obama had "full confidence" in the agency's director.
Senior Republican Senator John McCain fumed that he was being "denied access" to key information after military officials briefed him on a Pentagon probe about the scandal.
"We will leave no stone unturned," Napolitano told a Senate hearing on the activities of the Homeland Secretary Department, which oversees the Secret Service.
The agent's director Mark Sullivan "has the president's and my full confidence as this investigation proceeds," Napolitano said.
A panel of senators grilled her on the misconduct by agents alleged to have brought prostitutes back to their hotel in Cartagena, Colombia while preparing for Obama's attendance at the regional summit.
Asked directly whether the safety or security of the president was ever questioned, she said she had immediately quizzed Sullivan about that.
"The answer is no. There was no risk," she said.
Eight Secret Service agents have been dismissed so far.
"The Secret Service is moving to permanently revoke the security clearance of another, and three of the employees involved have been cleared of serious misconduct," Napolitano said.
But she stressed that "the allegations are inexcusable, and we take them very seriously".
Twelve members of the military, including a member of the White House Communications Agency, are also being probed by the Pentagon.
The US agents and personnel had gone to Cartagena to prepare security for Obama's arrival for the Summit of the Americas and the affair morphed into a huge diplomatic embarrassment for the United States.
Obama has described the agents involved as "knuckle heads," but said their transgressions should not detract from the wider work of the Secret Service.
Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy, who chairs the Judiciary Committee that oversees homeland security, said utmost rigour was needed to ensure the protection of top American officials, including the president and his Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
"No one wants to see the president's security compromised or America embarrassed," Leahy said.
"I can't think of anything, aside from a personal tragedy, that would look worse to the rest of the world if something happened either to President Obama or governor Romney, especially during a presidential election."
With nothing short of the president's security at stake, McCain, the top Republican on the Armed Service Committee, sought a briefing from senior military staff.
"Unfortunately, nearly two weeks after the events in Colombia, the briefers sent by the Department of Defence were woefully unprepared to answer even the most basic questions about what happened in Cartagena, and provided appallingly little new information," McCain said in a statement.
"We need to know the facts. We need to know the impact of this potential misconduct, which occurred less than a day, or perhaps hours, before the president arrived in Cartagena, on the performance of the military Joint Task Force charged with his security
"Yet, we are being denied access to the information we need in order to make informed judgments or take needed actions. This is entirely unacceptable."
Napolitano said she saw no evidence of a problem with the agency as a whole, insisting there have been no complaints of similar misbehavior at any time during the past two-and-a-half years, a period in which the Secret Service provided protection on 900 foreign trips and 13 000 domestic trips.
Republican Lindsey Graham suggested the problem stretched beyond Cartagena.
"Obviously there was a system failure here," the South Carolina senator said, charging that Napolitano faced an "order and discipline problem" within the agency.

Hennepin County District Court officials say they'll have extended court hours during the Republican National Convention.
The convention is happening September 1-4 in St. Paul, which is in Ramsey County. But Hennepin County court officials expect they'll be busy as well with incidents in Minneapolis.
Hennepin District Court Chief Judge James Swenson says officials are clearing court calendars starting on August 27th so they'll be able to quickly process any convention-related cases. They'll hold court sessions over the weekend and on Labor Day, September 1 -- which is normally a court holiday.
Ramsey County previously announced that it would also have extended court hours during the convention.

Date published: January 1, 2012

Rural hospitals have historically received special payment provisions to preserve access and address rural health disparities. "With the increasing belt-tightening of public budgets, these special payments are increasingly questioned.
The Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care, which has a well-established process to define hospital service areas (HSAs), earlier this year published a new dataset that makes an adjustment for cost-of-living differences among regions, along with their historical adjustments for age, sex, and race. The Dartmouth data for Medicare Parts A and B reimbursements per beneficiary provide the basis for the following analysis of the differences in spending between rural and urban HSAs.
The data show significant variation among different regions-a finding consistent with Dartmouth's historical research. Nationally, spending in rural HSAs is 4.5 percent lower than in urban HSAs, on average. With 6.45 million rural Medicare beneficiaries, this differential totals $2.76 billion, which includes the Medicare special payment provisions to rural providers.
The Dartmouth HSAapproach includes the payments for Medicare beneficiaries residing in the area, regardless of where they received services, as long as the services were delivered predominantly within the HSA. The differential identified in this analysis represents a conservative estimate of spending differences, given that many rural providers do not provide advanced and more costly services. Yet this outmigration is still captured in the cost picture for the HSA.
More research is needed on reasons for the differences between rural and urban spending. Dartmouth data on end-of -life care, however, suggest that in rural HSAs, spending during the last six months of life is 18 percent lower than in urban HSA, and the rural HSAs see 17 percent lower use of ICU/CCU services (See The DartmouthAtlas: Selected Measures of Inpatient Utilization During the Last Six Months of Life by HSA, 2007).
Many rural providers believe they are already operating within the coordinated Medical Home-Type approach that promises to reduce healthcare costs. Even with the special payment provisions, this analysis supports that contention.

My last cucumber on the plant (can't remember name) has grown at either end but has a very distinct waist half way down (see...not a spelling error ) It's about 6 inches total length and firm to the touch even at the waist. What causes this - can someone give me a reason?
Might be partial pollination - the thin section may not have any seeds forming. A similar thing happens to sweetcorn with some kernels not developing and staying tiny if it didn't get fully fertilized when the silks were catching pollen from the wind.

Cancer patients can now use the Internet to report their post-chemotherapy symptoms to their doctor.
Researchers at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center offered over 100 cancer patients the option to report symptoms via the Internet.
They could give choose to give their report either at home or in the office waiting room. 100 percent of patients used the office computers and about 15 percent logged in from home.
Researchers hope this can identify important symptoms that occur between office visits. Oncology nurses involved in the study said the on-line symptom reporting system improved patient management, and all patients thought the system was easy to use.
The program is called STAR and it is not available everywhere. While doctors did not monitor the reports 24 hours a day, if patients entered information that signaled a major health problem an alert would pop up telling them to call their doctor.

Pitt County authorities say a nine-year-old boy was killed last weekend when he took the family vehicle for a drive, had a minor accident and the airbag deployed. Lawmen say the boy and his seven-year-old brother, without their parent's knowledge, took the vehicle through Spain's Mobile Home Park where the family lives. The State Highway Patrol says the nine-year-old was probably sitting on the edge of the driver's seat to reach the pedals and was not wearing a seat belt. His brother was buckled into the front passenger seat and was not injured.

Actress Catherine Deneuve
Miami, April 4, 2011 -
Just as her latest project, the comedy Potiche, hits U.S. theaters, Miami Dade College's (MDC) Tower Theater will host a month-long tribute to French actress Catherine Deneuve.

text: My 13 yr old son asked me the other night, "Dad, what would be your perfect job?" I thought about it for a few moments and replied, "Pro bike racer" I said that even tho I considered all the agony and heartbreak they suffer through. (George Hincapie today for example) not to mention the doping scandals, endless travel and near unbearable physical and mental torture of those long stage races and countless other reasons why it's an awful way to make a living. Inspite of all that, can you even begin to imagine the elation of winning a stage, wearing the yellow or best yet, winning the overall in the TDF, forgetting recent scandals for a moment? The brotherhood of being on a great team and overcoming great adversity has to be beyond description. I've heard Lance say he doesn't miss the racing so much but he really misses the training and "the guys of the team". Bobke gives colorfull descriptions of the life without glorifying it in his books. If you're up for a little pain and suffering, I've got to think it would all be worth it!

Received: June 19, 2000; Revised: October 24, 2000
Organo-clays were prepared by exchange cations of the montmorillonite with tetramethylammonium (TMA)- and hexadecylpyridinium (HDP)-chloride. Two different montmorillonite types were studied. Two amounts of each organic substances (1 and 4 cation exchange capacity times of montmorillonite) were contacted with each montmorillonite clay for 1 and 24 h. The solids were characterized by X-ray diffraction and swelling index. The swelling was measured in water and toluene media. The structural characteristics of montmorillonites changed after organo treatment and showed different behaviour in water and toluene media. The type of montmorillonite, the organic cation intercalates (TMA, HDP) and condition of treatment influenced in the different swelling in water and toluene media.
Keywords: organo-montmorillonite, tetramethylammonium, hexadecylpyridynium, toluene
1. Introduction
Smectites can be converted into organo-smectites and they are effective for adsorption of organic compounds. The hydration interlayer cations of natural bentonites become hydrophilic in water media. Some organic compound such as toluene cannot adsorbed because competes with polar molecules. Nevertheless, if organic cation are intercalated, the bentonite may be hydrophobic and then it could retain toluene molecules. Several papers describe the retention of organic compounds1-10. The organo-clays are effective sorbents for remotion organic compounds from water, as rheological additives. The swelling property of the suspension is taken into account in many industrial uses: paints, waxes, cosmetic preparation, lubricants, etc.11,12
The aim of this paper is to evaluate the swelling degree in water and toluene media of two different organo-montmorillonites, prepared by intercalation with tetramethylammonium (TMA) and hexadecylpyridinium (HDP).
2. Materials and Methods
Two types of montmorillonites (Cheto and Wyoming) were the starting clays and named B1 and B2, respectively. The montmorillonites were provided by Clay Repository, (SAz-1: Cheto type; Swy-1: Wyoming type).
The cation exchange capacity (CEC) and the structural composition of B1 and B2 montmorillonties were presented in previous papers13,14. The higher CEC of B1 (110 meq/100 g) than B2 (97 meq/100 g) is due to high isomorphous substitution in the structure with the Mg2+ replacing Al3+ in the octahedral layer.
Tetramethylammonium (TMA) and hexadecylpyridinium (HDP) were used to prepare organo-montmorillonites. Aqueous solution of TMA chloride or HDP chloride salts was added to the smectite suspension and contacted for 4 and 24 h. The solids were washed to remove excess salts and stored at room temperature. The amounts of organo compounds added to the smectite were 1 and 4 times the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of the smectite. The organo-smectite was named: B(A-C) where the B is bentonite, B1 or B2; A is the amount of organo substances in CEC added, 1 or 4 times; C is the contacted time, 1 or 24 h.
The swelling index (SI) was measured in water and toluene media. Then, 2.00 grams of sample were added to 100 mL distilled water or toluene and after 24 the volume of sediment was measured.
The d(001) spacing of sample was measured by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD). A Philips 3020 Goniometer with PW 3710 Controller using Cu Ka radiation (l = 1.5405 Å) and Ni filter operating at 40 kV and 20 mA was used.
3. Results and Discussion
The hydrophilic and organophilic characteristics of the organo-montmorillonite could be shown by means of the Swelling Index (SI). The SI of both original bentonites, B1 and B2, in water medium (5.3 and 10.0 mL) was higher than in toluene medium (3.6 and 3.8 mL), Table 1. This behaviour could be related to the hydrophilic behaviour of the natural bentonites because more water was retained between montmorillonite crystals and a small amount of toluene was uptake.
3.1. Swelling of organo-bentonites in water medium
The SI of both original bentonites was modified in water medium after organo intercalation, Table 1. The intercalation of TMA in montmorillonites originated a decrease in swelling in water medium. The swelling values of TMA-B1 montmorillonites were smaller (4.3-4.8 mL) than from TMA-B2 montmorillonites (6.0-7.6 mL), Table 1.
The intercalation of HDP cation in montmorillonites originated higher swelling values in water media for all HDP-B1 (5.5-8.0 mL) than all HDP-B2 (3.7-4.4 mL). The type of montmorillonite and organo substance influenced on SI in water media.
3.2. Swelling of organo-bentonites in toluene medium
In toluene medium all SI of HDP-montmorillonites were higher (11.1-32.2 mL) than TMA-montmorillonites (3.6-5.1 mL), Table 1, and the values corresponding to HDP-B2 montmorillonites were also, higher than in HDP-B1 montmorillonites.
The interpretation of this behaviour is not simple, because different factors are present: type of montmorillonite, different amounts of organic molecules added, interaction between toluene and organic molecule and other factors.
3.3. Comparative swelling between water and toluene media
In Fig. 1 the swelling index of all samples in water and toluene media is plotted. Three groups can be found: (a) organo-montmorillonites that can swell in water but not in toluene; (b) organo-montmorillonites that can swell in toluene but no in water; and (c) organo-montmorillonites that can swell in water and toluene media. Both type of montmorillonites, B1 and B2, treated with TMA organic substance are included in (a) group; the B2 treated with HDP belongs to (b) group; and the B1 smectites treated with HDP to (c) group (also see Table 1). The different swelling values in water but not in toluene can be modified, for example, by means of intercalation of TMA, whereas the swelling in toluene medium mainly depend on the type of montmorillonites.
High swelling in toluene of B2, 32.3 mL, was obtained with low HDP added with slow contact time, B2(1-4), Figure 1 and Table 1. On the other hand, reverse behaviour (small swelling) was found in B2 montmorilllonite with high amount added and 24 h contact time, B2(4-24).
3.4. Interlayer spacing, d(001), in air dried samples
The d(001) spacing of the montmorillonites increased after HDP treatment evaluated in air dried and at RH of 55% conditions. The spacing of B1 increased from 14.9 Å to 20.02-26.75 Å; and B2 from 13.00 Å to 18.15-22.58 Å after different conditions of treatment, Table 2.a. Air-dried TMA-montmorillonites tended to give d(001) spacings of 13.71-14.87 Å, similar to that for the air-dried original bentonites (Table 2.a). Lee et al.15 found 13.80 Å d(001) spacing value in bentonite treated with similar amount of TMA added (3-5 times CEC). Nevertheless, our results as shown in the Table 2.a indicates that the montmorillonites treated with TMA 4 times the CEC showed higher interlayer spacing (13.84-14.87 Å). Higher d(001) spacing of montmorillonites was obtained after added TMA 4 times the CEC. The results obtained after contacted time of 4 or 24 h were similar. The higher d(001) spacings of TMA-B1 than TMA-B2 could be attributed to more retention of TMA in interlayer position due to more CEC of the starting montmorillonite.
3.5. Interlayer spacing, d(001), of samples after toluene contact
The d(001) spacing of TMA montmorilllonite after contacting toluene (13.48-14.70 Å), Table 2.b, was similar to the one without toluene (13.71-14.87 Å, Table 2.a) and some changes were shown in HDP-montmorillonite (19.5-22.49 Å, Table 2.b) regarding the sample without toluene (18.15-26.75 Å, Table 2.a).
The interlayer spacing after HDP treatment was higher than after TMA treatment (Table 2). The different spacing values of TMA- and HDP-montmorillonites are attributed to arrangement of organo cations in the interlayer position16,17.
3.6. Swelling vs. interlayer spacing
Figure 2 shows the correlation between swelling index and d(001) spacing of all samples. It is important to mention that the results of d(001) not necessarily would be proportional to swelling. In swelling test the crystal can uptake all necessarily molecules of the medium. Nevertheless, when the d(001) was measured in air dried conditions the retained molecules of the medium were limited. It is not easy to explain that fact, nevertheless we found a small correlation between the value of swelling in water and d(001) spacing of HDP-montmorillonites. The organo-montmorillonite after contacting toluene showed not clear correlation with d(001) spacing, as shown in the dashed curve in the Fig. 2.
Regarding the correlation between swelling and d(001) spacing of smectites treated with TMA organic, it only can be seen a slight decrease in swelling in both media as d(001) increased.
Further studies will be necessary to obtain more information about the influence of the characteristics of the original clay on swelling in different media, after organo intercalation.
4. Conclusions
Larger swelling of montmorillonites in toluene medium was obtained after intercalation with hexadecylpyridinium cations.
The Wyoming type montmorillonite intercalated with tetramethylammonium or hexadecylpyridinium cations showed higher swelling values in toluene medium than the Cheto-type montmorillonite intercalated with the same organo cations.
It is possible to obtain organo-montmorillonite with selective swelling in water or in toluene according to the organocation intercalated montmorillonite and the type of montmorillonite clay. Nevertheless, more extensive research should be carried out to support the conclusions.

ROBINS AIR FORCE BASE, Ga.
-- In front of the Fitness Center, there is a flag that could save a life.
It's the flag that signifies the current heat condition, and along with the color comes recommendations for rest periods and water intake to prevent heat exhaustion.
For those who aren't around the Fitness Center, the flag condition is regularly updated on the main Robins Web site at https://wwwmil.robins.af.mil.
The Web page gives detailed information about what each flag condition signifies and the work/rest cycles that should be used to avoid becoming overheated.
White flag is the lowest, posted at a wet bulb globe temperature of 78-81.9 degrees. The wet bulb globe temperature is a composite used to estimate the combined effect of temperature, humidity, wind speed and solar radiation.
The highest caution is a black flag, which is posted at WBGT of 90 degrees or higher. A black flag carries a recommendation that for hard work, 10 minutes of work should be followed by 50 minutes of rest, with a water intake of one quart.
Examples of hard work include hiking on steep terrain or with a heavy load, or intense fitness drills. 1st Lt. Michael Webber, a bioenvironmental engineer in the Bioenvironmental Engineering Flight, said the guidelines for the flag conditions are suggestions.
"Whatever the flags are, the most important thing is to use common sense and drink plenty of water," he said.
Symptoms of heat exhaustion include heavy sweating, paleness, cramps, dizziness and weakness. But people should not wait for those symptoms before taking a rest, he said.
"If you are starting to feel a little something, just stop and rest for 10 minutes," he said.
Although July has been unusually pleasant for Georgia, June was brutally hot and humid, and the heat can be expected to return to full force in August.
Paul Kelley, 78th Civil Engineer Squadron chief of operations, said his unit has about 200 people who work outside. Heat exhaustion is a significant safety concern, he said.
"We stress all the time about keeping hydrated," he said. "We pay attention to the flag system. We emphasize to our people to watch out for one another."
He said June was the hottest month at Robins since 1998, but there were no significant problems from his work crew with heat exhaustion. The 78th CES handles a variety of maintenance operations around base, employing heavy equipment operators, roofers, carpenters, electricians and others.
Mr. Kelley said air conditioning repair people, ironically, have some of hottest jobs because they are typically working on roofs. Paving work is also an especially hot job, he said.
Rick Clark, a mason in the 78th CES, knows a little something about getting overheated. He was once taken to the hospital after participating in a flightline competition. Co-workers feared he was suffering a heat stroke.
He turned out to be OK, but the experience has made him more aware of the dangers about working outdoors. During the summer, the crew has changed its working hours. They used to start at 7:30 a.m. and end their day at 4:30 p.m., but now they start at 6:30 a.m. and end at 3:30 p.m.
"We also make sure we have plenty of water on hand," he said. "If we get too hot, we sit in the truck to cool down."

How to Set up a Home Owners Association
Homeowners' associations (HOAs) are established to maintain a certain standard of quality in a condominium building or neighborhood. These associations are usually nonprofits managed by property owners. The main goal of HOAs is to keep property values as high as possible in a given area. State laws govern and regulate these associations. An HOA also serves as an effective communication link with the local government. Most people that want to learn how to set up a homeowners' association are in newly developed properties, but residents from established neighborhoods sometimes seek to form an HOA as well.
1Form a core group of people to start the HOA. The group should be less than 10 people that will commit to doing the work required for setting up the association. Having more than 10 people will be harder to manage, leading to lower productivity.
- Determine a time and place to hold meetings. The initial meeting of the core group should result in electing a temporary chairperson. The core group should meet as many times as necessary to devise a strategy and come up with common neighborhood goals before establishing a first meeting for all residents.
2Research local laws and regulations for forming an HOA. Your state's property codes determine the specific guidelines your community will need to follow in order to set up a home owners association.
- You can use online resources such as Lawyers.com to locate state codes and statutes.
- Consider hiring an attorney with experience in HOA formation if no one in your core group is a real estate law expert. An attorney can ensure you abide by all state laws.
3Create by-laws, covenants, conditions and restrictions (CC&Rs). These describe what rules the homeowners are held to and how the HOA will conduct operations, including meeting frequency, leadership election and voting guidelines. It's sometimes easiest to start with existing CC&Rs then customize it to fit your own HOA. A real estate attorney with experience in documents for forming HOAs will be able to help you draft your CC&Rs.
4Contact your city's Neighborhood Services Office if you have one. Request the help of a Neighborhood Service Supervisor in establishing your HOA.
5Establish your HOA as a business.
- Obtain a Tax Identification Number. Contact the IRS to have one assigned to your HOA.
- Form an LLC or nonprofit corporation. Your real estate attorney will assist you in drawing up articles of incorporation to be filed with the government.
- Open a bank account. Since funds will be paid to the HOA and be spent on behalf of the HOA, you will need to determine the best bank account type for managing funds, whether it is a savings or checking account. Depending on the bank, you may qualify for account fees to be waived.
6Elect officials. You can use the HOA's first meeting to elect officials or to schedule elections and go over the election process as presented in your CC&Rs.
7Set up committees, if needed. Committees are usually divided into 2 major categories.
- Internal affairs committees include fund raising, publicity, bylaws and social events.
- Neighborhood affairs committees include housing conditions, traffic safety, law enforcement/neighborhood relations, neighborhood maintenance, economic development and community services.

This is the second of a two part post from Michael Cheshire. You can read part one here.
I would not consider myself a lazy person. In fact, I have been described as a "workaholic." So it was a surprise when I realized that laziness had affected some parts of my life. It had even begun to affect my goals and dreams.
This is often the case when the demands of your life go up. I used to be able to knock out my extensive To-Do lists with very little structure. I wandered from one job to the next, finishing at my pleasure. However, as new doors began to open for me, this lack of structure stopped working. I ran out of time at the end of the week. I began to have to "wing it" in my talks and writing. I was always rushing to get yesterday's stuff done today.
I didn't feel lazy. I was traveling, speaking, and writing more than ever had before. However, in one of our senior staff meetings, a young man had the courage to tell me, ''Michael, all your talks and writing lately seem very dry and uninspired." Someone else said, "Yeah, you're really sucking it up lately." Ouch!
I wanted to defend myself. But deep in my heart, I knew it was true. As the conversation went on, we all realized that I had to structure my days, meetings, and life in general in a way that maximized my time. My assistant began to talk about how I often ignored her when she shared how I could stay on track each day. She explained that all her planning and structure was a waste of time if I chose not to work hard at following it. My wife talked about my need to prioritize my health and family. It was like an episode of Intervention.
As a free-spirited leader, I relished my laid-back style. I did things when I felt like it. I couldn't imagine the horror of a scheduled life! But as the meeting went on, it was clear that I needed to grow. I saw that I had become comfortable with putting off tasks. In fact, I procrastinated long enough that some opportunities just went away. I was being too lazy to grow.
Laziness is a funny little creature. I used to think it was why people don't get jobs or why houses stay dirty, but I have found it to be a cleverer foe than I ever realized. True laziness just says, "Things are fine." Laziness rewards you for what you have done and encourages you to stay in that moment. Laziness reasons that tomorrow will be a more fruitful day. It convinces us to rest before we even get tired.
In a leader, laziness often looks like "movement," while preventing meaningful action. Like a ship anchored in a storm, the ship rocks and rolls with the waves but it never goes anywhere.
So what kills the cancer of laziness in a leader? Education and new habits.
I began to read everything I could about leaders who experienced growth: Hybels, Maxwell, Welch, Jobs and other biographies of other men and woman who have excelled. I began to give those under my leadership more voice in my daily duties. I asked my wife to use harsher words to get my attention. I learned to say "this meeting is over." I began to turn things down (even some good things!). I wrote during the time outlined on my schedule. If I didn't feel inspired, I lied to myself until I did. But I always kept typing. I built a team of staffers to help me develop my talks with their honest feedback. And I learned to stop at the end of the day.
In short, my life got structured. I cannot tell you how much peace and inspiration it has brought me. It's a funny thing about constantly educating ourselves; it inspires us to perform at new levels. I have come to see that those I admire have one thing in common: They never stop learning. Laziness cannot exist in the bright light of learning and growth.
I spent several years in my early twenties working as a professional fire fighter. First, we went through a fire academy that lasted close to a year. During that time we were taught not only how to do our job, but also the mindset we'd need to perform under intense circumstances.
One day, after a rather bad performance by our team, our instructor called us all together and said, "Men, you failed today because you hesitated. You have been trained enough that you knew what you should do but you lacked the confidence to rush in and do it." Then he said something I have never forgotten, "In this job hesitation will make your worst nightmare come true. It is the result of every mistake."
He went on to explain. Fires only get bigger and hotter. As soon as you know how to kill them, do.
I have found this to be good advice as a leader. How often have I put off a conversation with a staff member hoping that an issue will fix itself? How many times do we have to make tough financial decisions hoping that money will magically appear? The answers to the biggest decisions in my life were often clear as glass and yet somehow, I paused too often when I needed to act.
Now, I understand the need for wisdom. We need cool heads at decision time. But every leader I know has a story of how a problem they ignored grew from a whisper to a roar very quickly. Sometimes, leading people requires quick decisions.
I used to use the words "I'm processing" to postpone these. I now understand that isn't always wise. If I sense a problem with someone on my team, I choose to ask immediately, "Hey, do we have a problem?" And each time I ask, it takes two seconds into their response to know if we do or not. A wait-and-see approach isn't always the best way to deal with every issue in life. If a snake slithered underneath your bed, you would never say, "You know what? I can't see it right now so I'll deal with it later." No. You would deal with it now. And if you couldn't find the snake, you'd likely burn the house down trying. Hesitation can cause nightmares. But bold action when we know it's needed makes a huge difference.
These are just a few cancers of the attitude that I have had to watch out for. Yours might be different. But whatever is jeopardizing your attitude in ministry must be dealt with. Attitudes are of vital in the life of a leader. From them come our thoughts, dreams, and actions. Don't let your ministry become diseased because you didn't seek these out. Choose to exam your life before your tumors grow. Be ready to treat them with the right medicine.
Happy hunting.
What "cancers of the attitude" would you add to this list? What are the antidotes?

To Dick and family. I was lucky enough to get a chance to know Gail. I worked with her at Bedford Village and always looked forward to seeing her there. She was a great mentor and friend. I will always remember her smile....she could light up a room just by smiling. She was a great person and she will be greatly missed by so many. She is in heaven now and no longer suffering. My deepest condolences and sympathy are with you at this very difficult time. Rest well Gail. I love you.

To Gail's family and Dick, My sincere sympathy to all of you on the loss of your mom, grandmom, sister, and loved one. Gail was a good friend of mine when she lived in VT. There were four of us who were friends and went to dinner once a month and supported each other and laughed and cried together. After the other two women left, it was just Gail and I who continued to get together monthly until she moved to NH. She was such a supportive, caring person and I know how important her children were to her. Gail's family always came first. She was a wonderful nurse, as well. When Gail last wrote to me, she said that she had a special man in her life and that her family was doing well and she was very happy. Although, we have been out of touch for the past year, Gail will always hold a special place in my heart. I hope that the wonderful memories that you have of her will help you through this difficult time. Eileen

Tweeting dads in the delivery room
To Tweet or not to Tweet during your wife's labor? That is the question.
Back in October, I used Twitter to post 9 or so updates throughout the day as my wife went through labor. It gave me something to do with my fidgety fingers in my downtime, and some friends and relatives found it useful. (I informed my Facebook friends I'd be Tweeting and sent them a link to my Twitter page.)
Twitter, in effect, was really the sole efficient way to communicate in a "one-to-many" way to people outside the comfortable bubble we were in at the hospital. My pleasant wife only begged me to not Tweet anything gross, which I obliged.
At the end of it all, we brought home a healthy, gorgeous baby girl. A few days later, I went back through my Tweets and compiled them, and saved them in a screen-shot on my computer, for posterity. It's now a cool little digital memento for us that I can print out and add to our family photo album.
My colleague Joe Burris says in a story today that Tweeting dads are becoming more common.
Of course, there's a debate on how to use such technology during such a sensitive time as a child's birth. I guess all I can say that I think it's really up to the couple to come to an agreement and set some ground rules. You both should feel comfortable about what it means to Tweet the delivery. And Dads, it goes without saying that you shouldn't let it get in the way of any of your fatherly duties.
So what do you think? Is live-Tweeting your kid's birth a ridiculous idea or just another sign of the times in our texting/Twitter digital lives?
