Wheat ideally suited for dryland organic farmers
By Terri Adams, The Prairie Star
If you are looking to plant something that is experiencing a strong upswing in the market, despite the economic downturn, you may want to look into Kamut brand Khorasan wheat.
Kamut is the registered trade name used to market ancient, hard Khorasan wheat that is grown organically to keep it pure and protected from modern breeding programs.
Andre Giles, president of Montana Flour and Grain, said Kamut brand Khorasan grain is only grown under contract. He also said the vast majority of producers return and replant the grain the following season. Several have been planting the crop for years.
"It is ideally suited for Montana dryland organic farmers," Giles said.
There is still time to contract for the 2009 growing season.
Seeding runs from mid-April through the end of May. Interested producers can contact Giles at Montana Flour and Grains in Fort Benton, Mont., at 406-622-5436. Producers will need to agree to certified organic growing methods but their price is guaranteed.
Last year, 41,900 acres of Khorasan wheat were contracted, an 18 percent increase from 2007. This year their contracted acres have already increased and they are hoping to finish just under 50,000 acres. Currently most of the world's Kamut brand Khorasan wheat is grown in southern Saskatchewan and Alberta, but Bob Quinn, president and founder of Kamut International, would like to see Montana and North Dakota move forward with their acreage.
Trevor Blyth, Kamut International's new CEO, and nephew of Bob Quinn, said, "We contracted with 15 farmers in Montana in 2008. They were located generally along the highline from Chouteau County to Daniels County by Scobey."
He said that Kamut's goal for pricing "has always been to be as fair and stable as possible and to set our prices to be generally above the noise of market fluctuations. We set these prices in the spring when we do our contracting."
Kamut brand wheat's ability to produce high quality grains without costly fertilizers and pesticides makes it an excellent dryland crop.
Like all Khorasan wheat, Kamut is a hollow-stem wheat.
"But it is heavy walled and thick so we haven't really seen (wheat stem) sawfly infestation in it," Quinn said.
That thick wall on the stem may be protecting it from the insect. It also creates a remaining straw of first-rate quality for mulch or animals, making it a double-cash crop.
One reason Kamut brand products are experiencing a strong and growing market is because they offer flavor and health rolled into one giant kernel.
Twice the size of regular wheat kernels, Kamut brand Khorasan wheat shows 20 to 40 percent more protein than other hard wheats; is higher in vitamins B1, B2, E and niacin; is significantly higher in selenium, a strong antioxidant; and offers more lipids and amino acids than other wheats.
Lipids and amino acids are used for energy storage, regulating our metabolism and as the building blocks of protein in our bodies, making the grain a high-energy wheat.
Only two or three servings of Kamut products a day will provide 100 percent of the body's daily requirement of selenium. All these features, added to its wonderful flavor, help keep Kamut brand product sales strong and growing even in a weakened economy.
Khorasan is an ancient relative of durum and is sometimes referred to as King Tut's Wheat, the Prophet's Wheat or Camel Tooth Wheat. The history of Kamut is as unique as the grain.
In 1949 a Montana airman, by the name of Earl Dedman was stationed in Spain after World War II. He was given 36 kernels of giant, banana-shaped wheat and was told it came from an Egyptian tomb. Dedman mailed the wheat back home to his father, a farmer in the Fort Benton area. His father planted the kernels and wheat began to sprout.
In 1963, Bob Quinn, from Big Sandy, Mont., was given a handful of the giant wheat at a county fair. He was struck by the novelty of the wheat's size.
A few years later, while attending University of California-Davis, Quinn was eating corn nuts and read that the snack was made from a giant corn. He remembered the giant wheat he'd seen and asked his father to track it down. They found some, contacted the Corn Nut company and sparked corporate interest in the oversized kernels.
However, when the company found out the Quinns were the only suppliers, they lost interest. Quinn did not.
Over the years Quinn grew, tested and marketed the wheat and slowly it caught the attention of buyers around the world.
Today Quinn's company, Kamut International, owns the Kamut brand trademark and guides grain production and trademark promotion here in the U.S. and Canada, as well as overseas. Quinn has also traveled the world testing growing sites and further establishing the rapidly growing international markets.
On his travels he's also been able to study the wheat grains found inside the Egyptian tombs - "and Khorasan isn't one of them," he admits, but it is still a pure and ancient grain. In Turkey he found small patches of the grain being grown by local farmers who claim it was with Noah on the Ark. In Turkey it is still called the Prophet's Wheat or Camel's Tooth Wheat because of its shape.
Around the world, Kamut wheat's golden-yellow grain produces a fine yellow flour which is used in everything from breads and pastas to cereal, coffee, beer and ice cream.
Pete Rysted, owner of Great Harvest Breads in Great Falls, Mont., makes and bakes Kamut bread every week.
"It's a great bread," said Rysted.
The bread boasts a nutty, buttery flavor that has a hint of natural sweetness. Customers love the smooth flavor of the bread, he said.
Rysted sells a lot of his Kamut product to people who suffer from wheat sensitivities.
"Many wheat sensitivities are to modern varieties of wheat," Rysted said. "Kamut brand Khorasan wheat is a pure variety that is thousands of years old."
It hasn't been genetically altered or engineered. Because of that a lot of wheat-sensitive people can eat Kamut bread without problems. Rysted did note that Kamut cannot help those who suffer from Celiac disease. Celiac is an auto-immune disease which affects a person's ability to process wheat gluten. Since Khorasan, like all wheat, has gluten in it, it should be avoided by those with Celiac disease.
Adverse reactions to wheat are one of the most commonly shared food allergies in the world. In the U.S. alone it is estimated that one to six percent of the population suffers from the effects of a wheat allergy or sensitivity.
During the past few years, Kamut International has funded several research projects to learn and understand the differences that allow most people with severe wheat sensitivity to eat Kamut products without any difficulty. They are beginning to have some breakthroughs and study results which will be published in the coming months.
With the increasing demand for Kamut brand products, Kamut International continues to test growing sites around the world. So far the best growing conditions are found in northeast and north central Montana, northwest North Dakota, southern Alberta, and Saskatchewan.
(Editorial note: I purchased a loaf of warm Kamut bread from Great Harvest Bakery. Later than night I served Kamut bread, along with three other breads, at a dinner party. The Kamut proved to be very popular. It is not only healthy but was actually preferred over traditional wheat bread with its smooth, enjoyable flavor, texture and color.)

"I am delighted we have achieved this result," Key said. "Making the two Hobbit movies here will not only safeguard work for thousands of New Zealanders, but it will also follow the success of the 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy in once again promoting N.Z. on the world stage."
So let's recap: Peter Jackson is directing, Martin Freeman is starring as Bilbo Baggins, and the movies are being filmed in New Zealand. After seven years and a lot of doubts, everything actually finally came together!
What did it ultimately take to convince Warner Bros. to keep "The Hobbit" production on New Zealand shores? Key said that lawmakers will be introducing legislation tomorrow to "clarify the distinction between independent contractors and employees as it relates to the film production industry," therefore (hopefully) resolving the conflicts New Zealand actors, who work as independent contractors, had with wages and work standards. So there's that… and the fact that the N.Z. government will also stake Warner Bros. up to $25 million. The studio could see up to $15 million in rebates because the government has agreed to broaden of the criteria for its big-budget-movie incentives program. And, thanks to a "long-term strategic partnership" between WB and New Zealand to help foster tourism, the government will cover about $10 mil of the studio's marketing costs.
That means production is gearing up to go, and the films are set to start shooting early next year. Andy Serkis and Ian McKellen still aren't officially on board, but we can assume that now that everything's straightened out we'll be hearing "confirmed" next to their names pretty shortly.
"It's good to have the uncertainty over, and to have everyone now full steam ahead on this project," Key said. Uh, yeah, we definitely agree.
"Christopher Nolan reveals the "Batman 3" title, James Cameron commits to making "Avatar 2" and "3" as his next films, and "The Hobbit" returns to New Zealand: Could today be any better for the film industry? Tell us your thoughts on all of this in the comments!

I feel companies knowing this alone, would be a good beginning. This plus some tax loop hole closings would get the economy going.
Just, knowing a version of Obama Care will be their should really help companies, including AT&T, and it's customers.
The rest wil be good old Capitalism, their are companies with plans to start, grow, develop. Best get it done before the other guy does.
Sentiment: Buy
The insureance companies wrote "Obama Care" and don't doubt it. It DID NOT originate in Congress as our laws are supposed to be. The con men in Congress hadn't even seen a copy of it when they voted for it. The Kenyan reminds me of "Br'er" Rabbit when the Fox and Bear were going to throw him in the Briar Patch. He makes a lot of noise about opposing the rich and the corporations they run but he is actually in bed with them. Check out the 50 or so appointments he's made from Goldman-Sachs into government offices handling public money. A very unfunny joke.

Ex-SEMO president leaves college for prep school
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. -- The chancellor at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga is leaving to become headmaster at a private boarding school. Bill Stacy announced Saturday he will be taking the top spot at Baylor School, after 8 years at UTC. Stacy previously served as president at Southeast Missouri State University from 1979 to 1989. "'I'm thrilled about the opportunity,'' Stacy said. ''UTC is in great shape; they're a great group of people, and they'll do very well.'' Incoming University of Tennessee president John Petersen said he would name an interim chancellor and begin a search process to find Stacy's successor.
St. Louis transit agency may take over extension
ST. LOUIS -- The St. Louis area's public transportation agency is threatening to fire the group of contractors in charge of a new light-rail extension. If it follows through on that threat, Metro might have to take more responsibility for managing the $550 million project. Metro administers the buses and MetroLink light-rail system in Missouri and Illinois. The agency has been struggling financially, reducing its ability to absorb any cost overruns. A 20 percent fare increase goes into effect today, and Metro has said it will seek a tax increase in 2006. The construction group, Cross Country Collaborative, consists of four engineering companies responsible for the design and construction of the extension: Parsons, Brinckerhoff, Quade and Douglas Inc.; STV Inc.; Jacobs Civil Inc.; and Kwame Building Group Inc.

Welcome to the Apple community.
If the contacts on both phones are part of your iCloud account, then yes deleting them on your new phone will delete them on the old one.
If you don't wish to have the contacts on your new phone or wish to have a different set of contacts on your new phone, then disable contact syncing in settings > iCloud. Of course by doing this any contacts you have on your new phone will be on your new phone only and will not sync to any other device.

I recently had my iPhone stolen. I am hoping that by doing the same thing on my new iPhone I will delete my contacts and calendar schedule from my stolen iPhone. I deleted all contacts thru iCloud on my new device then changed my password for iCloud. When I re-signed in on my new phone my contacts came back....and I'm hoping they won't on the stolen phone

Hi Winston C
What if one doesn´t wish to have the contacts of new phone appear on the old one what was stollen?
Same situation happened to me. Already deleted them from Icloud and about to use the icloud find my phone to wipe out all of other inormation from old/stollen device, but
don´t undestrand if when i´ll connect to itunes with new iphone, i´ll be able to getback all the information of the stollen device previously backed up and it if it will re-appear in the stollen device
HELP pls!!!

There was a group of concerned residents Monday evening at the budget hearing for the Clay Community School Board.
Many members of the community came hoping to speak about the proposed $53 million building renovation plan, however, board members were quick to let them know it was a special hearing on the budget only.
The total budget for 2007-08 year is $43,120,990 million, with $30,448,089 in the general fund. Salaries and benefits make up 94 percent of the general fund.
Business Manager/Treasurer Mike Fowler spoke about the Capital Projects Fund. This fund was set in place to be used for maintenance of the existing buildings. Recently the state changed the regulations, and the board has been able to utilize some of these funds to pay insurance costs, utilities and technical expenses.
According to Fowler, the utilities that were paid out of the fund for the last school year were approximately $885,000, with additional funds taken for the insurance and technical expenses. This has left Building and Grounds Director Tom Reberger approximately $800,000 to do any repairs or maintenance to the existing schools in the corporation.
Board member Steve Grigsby questioned whether the board needed to consider hiring additional technical staff to handle the number of computers that are currently in the schools.
According to Grigsby, the number of computers in Northview High School and North Clay Middle School alone seem to warrant hiring a technician for these two schools alone.
"I understand the concern," Fowler said, "But I feel that with the age of many of the computers in the school, we should concentrate on replacing the computers first before hiring someone to maintain them."
Board President Terry Barr also questioned whether Reberger set aside any funds for emergencies.
"Tom set back approximately $300,000 last year," Fowler said.
School superintendent Dan Schroeder informed Barr that was where the board acquired some of the money in the rainy day fund.
Residents asked about getting a technical grant, and Fowler explained that the corporation had received a technical grant that had allowed them to install the new one-to-one classrooms in Northview High School and in Clay City Junior-Senior High School.
When questioned further by residents, Barr and Schroeder stated that there was not a specific building fund in the budget.
"This is why we are investigating selling a bond for $53 million," Schroeder said.
Area resident Jim Brannan then read from a prepared statement.
In his statement, Brannan cited major points of interest to himself and he felt, to many other residents.
He said he had visited the two schools that are in the worst repair, East Side and Meridian Elementary, and he did agree that something needed to be done. Roofs needed to be repaired as soon as possible, and he felt the board needed to give specific direction to do so.
Brannan also directed the board that they needed to resolve the teacher's contract issue. He suggested that they hire a mediator and that the board should do its job.
"If you can't do your job that you were elected to do," Brannan said, "then you need to get someone in here that will. There should be a review of the general fund and this corporation should be running like a lean, mean machine."
There will be a special meeting to adopt the budget on Sept. 10, at 7:30 p.m. in the North Clay Middle School media center. The next regular meeting of the School Board will be on Sept. 13, at 7:30 p.m. also in the media center.

Comments about Vickerman Tinsel Red Slim Fir Pre-lit Christmas Tree:
I received my Vickerman Tinsel Red Slim Fir Pre-lit Christmas Tree (6.5 ft tall), and it was very easy to assemble, fit perfectly in my 1 Bedroom, Manhattan apartment. It looks just as good as the pictures from the website (in fact it's even better in person). It's a bold, holiday color statement -- sparkling from top to bottom with twinkle lights. With a few red and gold ornaments it really pops. It's a gorgeous, quality product, and everyone who has seen it has commented on how cool it looks. Perfect for a slightly offbeat, non-traditional holiday statement. Merry Chistmas, Hayneedle and Vickerman Team!!

The present invention relates to a rotary compressor for compressing desired gaseous fluid such as refrigerant and, more particularly, to an improvement in a rotary compressor of the type having a plurality of vanes mounted on a rotor.
A rotary compressor of the type described generally has a housing made up of a cylinder and a pair of side blocks mounted on axially opposite ends of the cylinder. A rotor is rotatably disposed in the housing and provided with vanes which are slidably received in substantially radially extending slots of the rotor. The nearby vanes define a fluid chamber in cooperation with the housing and rotor. During operation of the compressor, the rotor is rotated to cause the radially outermost ends of the vanes into sliding movement on the inner surface of the cylinder, thereby repeatedly increasing and decreasing the volume of the fluid chamber to compress incoming gas. The primary requisite in compressing gas in the manner described is that the outermost ends of the vanes be constantly held in sealing contact with the inner surface of the cylinder to fluidly isolate nearby fluid chambers. Such has been implemented by defining a back-pressure chamber by the radially innermost end of each vane and its associated slot and communicating a high fluid pressure to the back-pressure chamber. In operation, the pressure in the back-pressure chamber cooperates with centrifugal force developed in the vane in forcing the vane radially outwardly into sealing contact with the cylinder.
It has heretofore been customary to control the pressure P in the back-pressure chamber to a constant value as expressed by
P=1/2 (Pd+Ps)
where Pd is a delivery pressure and Ps, a suction pressure.
The problem encountered with the above prior art implementation is that during a compression stroke the pressure P becomes short to allow the vane to retract into the associated slot beyond the periphery of the rotor and, upon the subsequent suction stroke, suddently project from the slot hitting against the inner surface of the cylinder. This results in the generation of noise generally referred to as vane chattering.
To eliminate vane chattering, there has been proposed a rotary compressor of the type which makes the back-pressure chamber fluidly independent in the course of a compression stoke, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 57-26293/1982, for example. Specifically, the back-pressure chamber in a compression stroke becomes an independent space so that the pressure therein may be raised against retraction of the associated vane into the slot. This type of configuration is not fully acceptable, however, since where the proportion of oil or like pressurized liquid in the back pressure chamber is substantial the vane compresses that liquid to raise the previously mentioned pressure P to an excessive level, resulting in an increase in the sliding friction between the vane and the cylinder and, therefore, a poor coefficient of performance.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a rotary compressor which is capable of eliminating vane chattering without raising the pressure in a back-pressure chamber to an unusual level during a compression stroke.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a generally improved rotary compressor.
A rotary compressor of the present invention is of the type including a cylindrical housing, and a rotor rotatably disposed in the housing and provided with a plurality of vanes slidably mounted respectively in substantially radial slots which are formed in the rotor, each of the vanes defining a back-pressure chamber at an radially innermost end thereof in cooperation with the rotor and axially opposite ends of the housing. A passageway communicates a fluid pressure from a source of fluid pressure supply to the back-pressure chamber while the chamber is in a suction stroke range. The back-pressure chamber is fluidly isolated from the source of fluid pressure supply while the chamber is in a compression stroke range. A damper damps the fluid pressure in the back-pressure chamber in the compression stroke range.
In a preferred embodiment the damper comprises a blind hole formed in that surface of an end wall of the housing which faces the rotor, the back-pressure chamber aligning with the blind hole in the compression stroke range.
Preferably the passageway includes an arcuate recess formed in the surface of the end wall of the housing such that the back-pressure chamber aligns therewith in the suction stroke range.
The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description taken with the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a vertical section of a rotary compressor embodying the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a section taken along line A--A of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a front view of a side block included in the rotary compressor of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 4 is a graph showing the advantage of the present invention over the prior art with respect to pressure variation in a back-pressure chamber.
While the rotary compressor of the present invention is susceptible of numerous physical embodiments, depending upon the environment and requirements of use, a substantial number of the herein shown and described embodiment have been made, tested and used, and all have performed in an eminently satisfactory manner.
Referring to FIGS. 1-3 of the drawings, a rotary compressor embodying the present invention comprises a housing which is generally designated by the reference numeral 10. The housing 10 includes a cylinder 12 which is formed with a bore 14 having an elliptical cross-section. The left and right ends (as viewed in FIG. 1) of the cylinder 12 are closed by side blocks 16 and 18, respectively.
A cylindrical rotor, generally 20, is disposed in the housing 10 and rigidly mounted on a drive shaft 22. The drive shaft 22 extends throghout the rotor 20 at the center of the latter and is rotatably received in bearing holes 24 and 26, which are formed through the side blocks 16 and 18, respectively. The rotor 20 contacts the inner surface of the cylinder 12 at opposite ends of the shorter axis of the ellipse each with a slight clearance. Also, the opposite ends of the rotor 20 contact the side blocks 16 and 18 each with a slight clearance. The rotor 20 is formed with substantially radially extending slots 28 at equally spaced locations along the circumference, e.g. five locations as in the illustrative embodiment. Vanes 30 are slidably mounted in the slots 28, respectively, and engage with the inner wall (not designated) of the bore 14.
The housing 10 is surrounded by a head 32 which is sealingly mounted on one of the side blocks, 16, and a shell 34 sealingly connected with the head 32. An inlet or suction passageway 36 and an outlet or delivery passageway 38 are formed through one end of of the shell 34 remote from the head 32. The inlet passageway 36 is communicated to a low pressure chamber 40, and the outlet passageway 38 to a high pressure chamber 42. A cover 44 is mounted on the side block 18 to fluidly isolate the low pressure chamber 40 from the high pressure chamber 42. Passageways 46 extend throughout the cylinder 12 and side blocks 16 and 18 to provide communication between the low pressure chamber 40 and the interior of the head 32, the latter thus constituting part of the low pressure chamber 40 and being designated by the same reference numeral 40. In the low pressure chamber 40 inside the head 32, a partition 46 extends from the head 32 to define a seal chamber 48. A sealing device 50 is disposed in the seal chamber 48 and interposed between the head 32 and the drive shaft 22 which protrudes from the side block 16, thereby maintaining the low pressure chamber 40 fluid-tight from the ambience.
The high pressure chamber 42 is defined by the housing 10 and the shell 34. An oil separator 50 is positioned in the chamber 42, while an oil reservoir or sump 52 is defined in a lower portion of the chamber 42.
The low pressure chamber 40 is communicated to the bore 14 of the housing 10 by inlet openings 54 formed through the side blocks 16 and 18, and the high pressure chamber 42 by outlet openings 56 formed through the circumferential wall of the cylinder 12. In each of the side blocks 16 and 18, two inlet openings 54 are located at an angular spacing of substantially 180 degrees for each other. The outlet openings 56 are located in positions where the cylinder 12 is engaged by the rotor 20, and each is closed by a reed type delivery valve 58. As shown in FIG. 2, the vanes 30 in conjunction with the rotor 20 and the inner wall of the bore 14 define fluid chambers 60. The outlet passageways 56 are controlled by the check valves 58 into alternate communication with the fluid chambers 60. While the rotor 5 is in rotation, the vanes 30 are pressed against the inner wall of the bore 14 by centrifugal force developed therein and back pressure communicated to back-pressure chambers 62, thereby sealing the nearby fluid chambers 60 from each other.
Each back-pressure chamber 62 is defined in the innermost end of the slot 28 by the rotor 20, vane 30 and side blocks 16 and 18. The pressure developing in the chamber 62 is adjusted by a back-pressure adjusting arrangement which will be described.
The back-pressure adjusting arrangement is associated with each of the side blocks 16 and 18. For the construction of the adjusting arrangement, as shown in FIG. 2, the locus along which each end of the back-pressure chamber 62 moves on the side block 16 or 18 (circular locus in the illustrative embodiment) is divided into alternating high pressure sections α and normal pressure sections β in the circumferential direction. Each high pressure section α, briefly stated, covers an angular range in which any of the vanes 30 is positioned at and in the vicinity of the outlet opening 56. Specifically, the high pressure section α extends from the position where the rear end of the back-pressure chamber 62 with respect to the direction of rotation of the rotor 20 is located when an imaginary extension of a leading side 28a of the slot 28 with respect to the same direction assumes a position just before the port of the outlet opening 56, to the position where the front end of the chamber 62 is located when a trailing side 28b of the slot 28 assumes a position just after the point of contact between the cylinder 12 and the rotor 20. The normal pressure sections β cover the rest of the locus.
Arcuate grooves 64 and 66, for example, extend from one end to the other end of the respective normal pressure sections β in that surface of each of the side blocks 16 and 18 which faces the rotor 20. The grooves 64 and 66 in each side block 16 or 18 communicate to the bearing hole 24 or 26 via an annular recess 68 which is located radially inwardly of the grooves. A passageway 70 extends through the side block 16, and a passageway 72 through the side block 18. Each of these passageways 70 and 72 provides communication between the associated bearing hole 24 or 26 and the oil sump 52. In this construction, fluid, which is oil in this particular embodiment, is communicated from the sump 52 to the grooves 64 and 66 of each side block 16 or 18 by way of the passageway 70 or 72 while being restricted by the clearance between the drive shaft 22 and the bearing hole 24 or 26. Further, the side blocks 16 and 18 are each provided with blind holes 74 and 76 on their surfaces adjacent to the rotor 20 and in positions which lie in the previously mentioned high pressure sections α where compression strokes are effected.
In each normal pressure section β, therefore, the back-pressure chamber 62 will face any of the grooves 64 and 66 at opposite ends thereof and over its whole sectional area so that the pressure of the oil in the grooves is directly admitted into the chamber 62. Meanwhile, in the high pressure section α, the chamber 62 will be fluidly isolated from the grooves 64 or 66 by that part of each side block which intervenes between the grooves 64 and 66 and brought into alignment with the blind holes 74 or 76 instead, so that the pressure in the chamber 62 is released, or damped, into the blind holes while being confined in the chamber and the blind holes.
In the illustrative embodiment, the blind holes 74 and 76 are each positioned substantially at the center between the two grooves 64 and 66 and provied with a circular shape. In practice, however, their position, shape and size will be suitably determined depending upon the specific pressure variation characteristic in the back-pressure chambers 62.
The rotary compressor having the above-described construction will be operated as follows.
When the drive shaft 22 is rotated, it causes the rotor 20 to rotate together with the vanes 30. As any of the fluid chambers 60 defined by nearby vanes 30 increases in volume, it sucks gas thereinto via the inlet passageways 54. Then, while decreasing in volume, the fluid chamber 60 compresses the gas and delivers it to the high pressure chamber 42 via the delivery opening 56 forcing the delivery valve 58 to open. Such suction and compression strokes are repeated to compress the incoming gas. The compressed gas is temporarily retained in the high pressure chamber 42 to raise the pressure therein. As a result, the oil in the oil sump 52 is pumped into the bearing holes 24 and 26 via the passageways 70 and 72, respectively. The oil in the bearing holes 24 and 26 are communicated to the grooves 64 and 66 except for part thereof which is admitted into the seal chamber 48, while being restricted by the clearance between the drive shaft 22 and the bearing holes 24 and 26.
While the back-pressure chamber 60 is in the normal pressure section β, its opposite ends are held in communication with the grooves 64 or 66 so that the oil in those grooves and, therefore, its pressure is admitted into the chamber 62. Also, the chamber 62 is held in communication with the chamber 60 via the clearance between the vane 30, rotor 20 and the like. Hence, as shown in FIG. 4, the pressure P1 in the chamber 62 is controlled substantially to 1/2 (Pd+Ps) where Pd and Ps designate respectively a delivery pressure a suction pressure, as previously stated.
Thereafter, as the front end of the back-pressure chamber 62 with respect to the direction of rotation begins to enter the high pressure section α, the area of the chamber 62 overlapping with the grooves 64 or 66 gradually decreases. When the rear end of the chamber 62 has entered the high pressure section α, the chamber 62 becomes completely isolated from the grooves 64 or 66 and, at the same time, the vane 30 is gradually forced to retract into the slot 28 due to the configuration of the bore 14. Therefore, the volume of the chamber 62 is reduced tending to sharply raise the pressure in the chamber 62. However, since the chamber 62 has then been aligned with the blind holes 74 or 76 to release the pressure therefrom into the latter, the pressure in the chamber 62 does not rise in the manner indicated by a dash-and-dots line in FIG. 4 and, instead, remains at a predetermined level P2 as indicated by a solid line.
In summary, it will be seen that the present invention provices a rotary compressor which prevents the pressure in back-pressure chambers in compression strokes from being raised to an unusual level and, thereby, confines the sliding friction of the outermost ends of vanes in an allowable range to attain a desirable result coefficient. In addition, the back-pressure chambers can be depressurized in a rapid and accurate manner.
Various modifications will become possible for those skilled in the art after receiving the teachings of the present disclosure without departing from the scope thereof.

Leo took our son from a average Babe Ruth player to the next level of power hitting and playing. He made him feel like he could do it.
But the most important thing he has instilled in our son is competitive drive and confidence in playing the game. Along with mechanics comes strong communication on strength training, nutrition, healing soreness and most important what his attitude should be on the field. Great advice like DWAB – don't waste an at bat. And as my husband has said "he went from a whiffer to wacker with Leo."

We are pleased to announce the winners of the 2016 Singer-Songwriter Showcase!
From post-punk beginnings to melancholy daydreams, New Jersey based singer/songwriter Dennis King AKA Son of Dov (pronounced like dove) first discovered music on his family's out of tune piano, pounding out dramatic overtures with no rhyme or reason. King taught himself out of necessity and emotion, the latter being the driving pendulum, which is still present in his music today. King became a veteran of rock and punk in his mid-twenties, touring along the East Coast until walking away from it to help raise a family. Thankfully, the urgency never left him and he continued to write and record, but held onto his recordings until 2012, where it took a natural disaster, Hurricane Sandy, to begin anew.
His first two offering, "Gone to Seed EP", released in spring 2013 and "Spartan and Free EP" released summer 2014 were available in CD format but have since sold out. Songs can still be downloaded via Bandcamp. In 2012, Dennis placed his song, "Oh the Little Light", in the award winning independent film, "Coyote" directed by Joe Eddy. In addition, his first self released EP, "Gone to Seed", was selected by the popular PBS show "Road Trip Nation" as a featured musician and placed the full EP on the 2014 season. His most recent song placement, "Spartan and Free," is featured on the soundtrack for the short film "Wander" produced by Lowkey Films (2015) and is available on iTunes and Amazon.

We're Black and Blue (and a bit late-rising) All Over:
The Detroit Lions are entering another practice week with significant uncertainty, at least from the outside, about the identity of their starting quarterback.
Drew Stanton has started the Lions' past three games but suffered a third-degree separation of his left shoulder in Sunday's victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to Tim Twentyman of the Detroit News. Tom Kowalski of Mlive.com reports that the injury might not be a deal breaker for Stanton, who obviously throws right-handed.
But No. 2 quarterback Shaun Hill (finger) returned to practice last week and might be ready to start regardless Sunday at the Miami Dolphins. It seems unlikely that starter Matthew Stafford (shoulder) will be ready for this game.
Continuing a quick mid-morning tour of the NFC North:
Lions coach Jim Schwartz's exuberant postgame celebration Sunday is all over YouTube, writes John Niyo of the Detroit News.
The Lions don't want Sunday's game to be the highlight of their season, writes Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press.
David Haugh of the Chicago Tribune after the Chicago Bears clinched the NFC North title Monday night: "We can stop wondering how good the Bears are now. They are good enough to be one of 12 NFL teams to qualify for the playoffs, currently in position for a first-round bye. We can stop referring to their coach as 'Lucky' Smith too. Breaks every step of the way indeed have been part of the Bears' surprising resurgence -- and it was again with Adrian Peterson missing Monday night's game with a leg injury. But the Bears can say without apology they are more good than lucky."
Rick Morrissey of the Chicago Sun-Times: "They won a division title by knocking [Brett] Favre out of the game and ignoring all the pregame focus on the conditions at the University of Minnesota's field."
Bears rookie defensive end Corey Wootton on the sack that gave Favre a concussion, via Jeff Dickerson of ESPNChicago.com: "We had a pass-rush stunt and I just came around the edge and was able to get by Bryant McKinnie. I was able to get the sack and throw him to the ground, and I looked up and saw he was down. I didn't know [he was hurt] until I looked back. I didn't even know the ball came out, people were telling me it was a fumble."
Michael C. Wright of ESPNChicago.com: "Despite clinching the playoff berth that comes with a division title, the Bears want to hold on to their No. 2 seeding, which assures them a bye for the first round of the playoffs. That's the reason for the team's all-business demeanor in what should have been a celebratory postgame locker room."
Jon Greenberg of ESPNChicago.com: "[Lovie] Smith usually shows as much emotion as a parking meter, but he was glowing after the game in his NFC North title hat and shirt."
The Green Bay Packers don't know if they'll have quarterback Aaron Rodgers (concussion) for Sunday's game against the New York Giants, writes Jason Wilde of ESPNMilwaukee.com. But they're more confident than ever with backup Matt Flynn.
Gary D'Amato of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: "So how in the world did the Packers lose, 31-27, at Gillette Stadium on Sunday night? The same way they lost their other five games this season: by failing to convert in critical short-yardage situations, by committing costly penalties and by making game-changing blunders on special teams."
Sunday's game at Lambeau Field must be considered a playoff game, writes Kareem Copeland of the Green Bay Press-Gazette.
Judd Zulgad of the Star Tribune: "Vikings executives spent last week working diligently to make sure Monday night's game was played in front of their home fans in part because it was meant to serve as a celebration of the franchise's 50th season in Minnesota. That was their first mistake. Given the team's performance in its 40-14, five-turnover loss to Chicago at TCF Bank Stadium, those execs might have done their fans a greater service by having shifted this game as far away from snowy Minnesota as possible. That way, many in the announced crowd of 40,504 wouldn't have had to witness a second consecutive listless performance from a team that might have played in the elements but mentally appeared to be in Maui."
Tom Powers of the St. Paul Pioneer Press: "How do you squeeze 62,000 ticket holders into a 50,000-seat stadium? It's very easy when 22,000 of them say "no thanks" and stay home. There was plenty of elbow room. Unfortunately for those hearty souls who did brave the slippery roads, the Vikings don't play any better outdoors than they do indoors. My guess is that they wouldn't play any better under water or at zero gravity, either. They will not win another game this season. And, please, somebody put poor Brett Favre on the injured reserve list before he winds up permanently taking his meals through a straw."
Monday night's loss to the Bears was a "sleepwalk," writes Tom Pelissero of 1500ESPN.com.

The press has been reporting hints from a few top Republicans about repealing the 14th Amendment. That's the constitutional right for anyone born in the United States to be a U.S. citizen. Amid all the discussion -- whether it makes sense or is merely politically motivated -- one fact alone stands out: it is incredibly difficult to repeal an Amendment to the United States Constitution. That means the problem must be a massive one to these few Republicans, out of their wits about babies born to illegal immigrants.
The thing is, of all the problems facing America today -- an $18 trillion debt, 9 percent unemployment, two wars, the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the deepest recession since the Great Depression -- you'd probably figure that "babies born to illegal immigrants" would be really low on the list of Reasons to Change the Constitution of the United States.
When you look at polls of "What are the biggest problems facing America today?," the response of "babies born in the U.S. to illegal aliens, is usually not high on the list. (To be more accurate, it's not anywhere on the list.) So, to go from "no concern" to "let's repeal an Amendment to the U.S. Constitution" seems like a questionable leap. Republican Senators Mitch McConnell, John Kyl and Lindsey Graham can't be pandering that much. There must be something else we're missing.
I have figured out what it was. These gentlemen aren't talking about repealing the 14th Amendment at all. The press read it wrong. The Republicans want to repeal the 1st and 4th Amendments!
Now, that makes sense. The 1st and 4th Amendments have long been bugaboos to conservatives, and if any Amendments should be repealed, those are the two on top the far-right's wish list.
The 1st Amendment, of course, grants free speech and allows no law establishing religion. Little galls the Far Right more unfettered speech that doesn't follow the Daily Memo, but even more, the dream of getting the heathen to finally accept Jesus Christ as the one and only God of America, and truly make the United States a Christian Nation could be close at hand.
The 4th Amendment protects against unreasonable search and seizures. Sure, conservatives got part of that dropped when the Bush Administration eliminated warrants before wiretapping, and allowing the government to search emails. But imagine not having to read anyone their Miranda Rights. Oh, how much easier life would be.
So, this has to be what these Republican senators want to repeal. It makes perfect sense. Repealing Amendments 1 and 4 is well-worth the efforts and fight to the Far Right. A Christian America and no civil rights. But Amendment 14? Children of illegal aliens? Ha. No way. It was all a mis-print.
But when you think about it, repealing Amendments to the Constitution is actually a pretty darn good idea. As long as Republicans are interested in opening the door to the process, it might as well be opened all the way and finally wipe those "bad" Amendments off the books.
How about finally getting rid of the 2nd Amendment?! All the divisiveness over the right to bear arms -- get rid of it! And lower all the crushing gun deaths at the same time. Win-win. So what if it's a "Constitutional Right," so is the 14th Amendment. (Sorry, I'm mean the 1st and 4th.) That's the whole point of repeal.
We certainly don't need the 3rd Amendment. The government's right to quarter soldiers in our homes? Man, is that ever an intrusion of the government into our lives, hunh? Repeal it!
And honestly, the 5th Amendment is anti-justice. If someone is guilty, why shouldn't you be allowed to try them again, just because they got off on a technicality? And why shouldn't someone be forced to testify against themselves? If you're guilty, you're guilty. Right?
You certainly don't need the 6th Amendment either, that ridiculous "right to a speedy trial." The point is to get the outcome right, not fast. This isn't a McDonald's Happy Trial, after all.
As for number 7, it's just pointlessly out of date -- jury trials are guaranteed for all cases over $20. But...really, now -- $20??! When the Constitution was written, Ben Franklin could live the high life on 20 bucks. Today, you can't get into a 3-D movie for that and have enough left for a tub of popcorn.
And the 8th Amendment, that's just pointless today. Prohibiting cruel and unusual punishments sounds swell, but since we permit torturing mere suspects with waterboarding, to not allow cruelty once you've convicted the same criminals is ridiculous.
The 9th Amendment is just annoying lawyerspeak, put in like those weaselly disclaimers in small print at the bottom of a car ad. Saying that you can't violate one law with another makes you think the next line will be "All sales are final." Surely we can better.
The 10th Amendment is much too unclear. It grants rights not delegated to the U.S. given to the states - or "the people." Which is it? Make up your mind.
And all these defective Amendments? They're the Bill of Rights. What a mess they are. No wonder they need repealing, maybe the Founding Fathers weren't so All Knowing after all. So, "Constitutionalist" may not have much of a leg to stand on, when you get down to it.
And that's just the first 10. There are still another 17 more to go.
So, in the end, maybe this Amendment repeal that Republicans McConnell, Kyl and Graham are suggesting is not only a good thing, but even better. Let's have a whole new Constitutional Convention. And let's get rid of all those nasty laws and Amendments that really, really bug us.
Starting with that whole "babies" thing.
And then, we can go to the right to bear arms.

Total Time:
Level: Easy
Serves: 4
Advertisement - Continue Reading Below
- 2 navel oranges
- 1½ lb. cod fillet
- 2 scallions
- 1 large egg white
- Kosher salt and pepper
- 1 c. panko bread crumbs
- 3 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 bunch radishes
