Hello -right now I am living in a state of confusion. I had a CT scan in late December and an MRI last week at Johns Hopkins. Hopkins told me my tumor was stable, I had chemo radation since March. The CTscan shows multiple new lesions in the liver!
My numbers have been rising so I need to go on chemo again. I have not had any treatment since 3/14. I new I would go on Gem/Cis again.
I am feeling pretty good. I had a GI bleed and a paracentesis in November. My appetite is great and I am thankful for that. The interventional radiologist and my Onc. should talk this week.
Any ideas of what questions I should ask? I have a copy of the CT scan results and will get a copy of the Hopkins results soon.
Anyone ever had this before? Please write and tell me what happened.
Thanks to all of you in advance! Fondly, Johanna

Hello Marion, Gavin, Lainy, Wallsm1,
Thanks for all your comments and suggestions. I have had no surgery because my tumor is considered non-resectable (it is in the porta hepatis). I do not have a stent - my bilirubin is 1.5. My CA-19 is 109. I take no pain pills and the pain is twinges and does not bother me at night.
I think I am going to take Marion's suggestion and wait until the MRI. I am going to call Hopkins tomorrow-they may want to see me earlier. I will have blood work again on 11/9. I thank you for all your support and ideas for this issue. Sincerely, Johanna

Topic: Any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful (7 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Hello Everyone,
I have not written for a long time. Wednesday was my one year anniversary of being diagnosed with CC.
About 3 weeks ago I noticed my abdomen above my umbilicus (navel) bloated. I could not comfortably button my pants. I went to see my oncologist in Delaware who did not lay a hand on me say "pts. with CC usually don't get swelling there. Your labs are stable."
Well, I was not too happy. I am not blood work-I am a patient with a horrible cancer. I should be examined.
So, I went to my Hospital of the Unviversity oncologist (I will be transitioning to her when I move to NJ). Anyway, she felt my abdomen and believed I could have some fluid in it so more blood work and an ultrasound was ordered. Now I know an ultrasound is not the greatest test but what was explained to me is I have very little fluid in the abdomen and no huge tumor noticed. Yesterday, my HUP oncologist told me-she said something is going on but doesn't know what. I did have a CEA 125 drawn and it has doubled in 2 weeks. Anybody have any ideas?
I will go to JH on 11/15 for another MRI. I have some pain on my right side which seems to get worse at night.
Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks and I think of you all when I read your posts. Sincerely, Johanna

Re: Our father just diagnosed with bile duct cancer. (21 replies, posted in Introductions!)
Hello Tommy D,
I have stage 3 unresectable intrahepatic CC. It has been 11 months since my diagnosis. I have had gem/cisplatin. The only problem I had was I could not tolerate zofran (got a real bad headache). Zofran is given to prevent nausea, I took compazine instead.
I had no nausea, I was tired and rested whenever I needed it. I had blood work every week.
I wish your dad success with these drugs. Sincerely, Johanna

Hello Byron and Kris,
Thanks for your posts, it keeps me going. I am so mad at this cancer because I had to give up my job as a dean at a university because of the stress it was causing. I am lucky that my boss created a new job for me. I will retire this June, no matter what. I hope I feel good enough to do some traveling.
Kris-my tumor is in the porta hepatis and has not shrunk. 7 surgeons said no to surgery for me since the possibility of bleeding would be a problem. I am keeping on going to continue this fight against CC. Right now I am having trouble sleeping and was put on restoril.
Thanks for writing back-it means alot to me. Johanna
PS Because I am a nurse, I always said good health was so much more important than money and material items. Money can not buy you good health (just look at the former CEO of Apple).

Hi Kris,
Thanks for your kind words. My daughter just told me about a 31 year old young lady that had a tumor in her liver (stage 4 breat cancer). No drugs could help her. It is so sad. I am thankful for every day-but I still cry every day. I HATE not being in control. Life is not fair. Believe me, I am thankful the tumor is stable. Sincerely, Johanna
PS Gavin and CM thanks for your support also!

Hello Everyone,
I thought I posted this but I don't see it on the site. I went to JH for another follow up MRI on September 13th. My tumor is stable.
I have not had any treatment for CC since I had the Chemo-embolization on March 13th.
My bilibrubin is started to creep up (1.3) it was always normal. I know this sounds weird but it feels funny not having treatment.
I don't have any symptoms, just need a nap in the pm.
I do go back for another MRI in November. I don't post all the time but I read everyone's comments. Alot of times, I just sit here crying.
9/26 will be 11 months that I have been diagnosed with unresectable intrahepatic CC stage 111 b.
I wish there was a support group for CCC. I do go to one but not specifically for CCC. I have a great amount of support at home and at work.
I hope everyone is having a good day! regards, Johanna

Hello Everyone,
I went to JH today and had an MRI of my liver. I had one chemo-embolization in March. My tumor shrunk a little bit-it is considered stable. I was happy with the results today.
JH will not perform another chemo-embolization on my liver unless the tumor grows.

Re: Questions about Radiation (1 replies, posted in Radiation Treatments & Options)
Hello Susie,
I had radiation in the hopes of shrinking my tumore because it is unresectable. I went everyday for 4 weeks (and oral chemo. (xeloda) along with radiation). I had no nausea becuase I took compazine before I had the treatment. I just became tired because the radition is cumulative. I was diagnosed Stage III B because of the size of my tumor.
I saw the radiation oncologist once a week during radiation. Hope this info helps you. Sincerely, Johanna

I have had only one chemo-embolization-it took me one month to feel good. I lost 15 pounds.
As far as your mother's exhaustion-I had that also. I did develop cholangitis. I had chills and icterus (yellowing of the eyes).
What do the whites of your mom's eyes look like?
Just a suggestion, I would not wait to call the doctor your mom may need some stat bloodwork today.
Where was the chemo-embolization done?
Johanna (retired RN)
PS The good news is that more than 50% of my tumor is dead. I hope your mom feels better soon! Tell her to hang in there - she will feel better. My treatment was in March and it is still working on killing cells.

ABSTRACT. A cohort of 1749 newborns in the municipality of Odense were followed prospectively for the development of cow's milk allergy (CMA) during their first year of life. Altogether 39 fulfilled the criteria for CMA (2.2%). Out of the 39 infants, 17 developed symptoms of CMA during breast-feeding, in all cases before the age of 3 months. Nine of these were solely breast-fed at the time of diagnosis, giving a one year incidence of CMA in exclusively breastfed infants of 0.5% (9/1 749) in a study population with a frequency of exclusive breast-feeding of 52% at 3 months of age. None of the infants had signs of CMA in the neonatal period. Review of records from the newborn nursery revealed that all 9 infants had been exposed to cow's milk formula in amounts corresponding to approximately 0.4-3.0 g of Beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) during the first three days of life. Human milk samples were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the content of bovine BLG. Detectable amounts (0.5–45 ng/ml) were found in 3/9 samples of human milk against which the infants reacted clinically. Analysis of the size distribution by high pressure liquid gel permeation chromatography in combination with ELISA indicated a molecular weight of BLG corresponding to that of monomeric BLG (18 kD). Possibly early inadvertent and occasional exposure to cow's milk proteins may initiate sensitization in predisposed neonates. Subsequent exposure to minute amounts of bovine milk proteins in human milk may act as booster doses eliciting allergic reactions.

He gallops on a horse, swings his sword doing a 360 degree jump, thuds a wall with a kick. He is not just a hero, not even a superhero, but the one and only superstar Rajinikanth in "Kochadaiiyaan".
If the teaser of "Kochadaiiyaan" is anything to go by, fans of 'Thalaivar' are in for a visual treat when the film hits the screens soon.
Directed by Soundarya Rajinikanth Ashwin, the film will feature Rajinikanth in three avatars.
While the initial response has been phenomenal on social networking platforms such as Twitter and Facebook, the teaser is also earning some flak for poor visual effects.
One of the initial responses to the teaser on Youtube reads, "One of the worst animations I have ever seen. Whatever the film's story is, the animation quality will kill everything".
Another comment on Twitter reads, "Some PC videogames have better graphics than 'Kochadaiiyaan'."
It is touted to be India's first motion capture technology film being made along the lines of "Tin Tin" and "Avatar".
In an hour since it was posted online, "Kochadaiiyaan" received over 2,000 likes, over 200 dislikes and over 500 comments.
The film also features R. Sarath Kumar, Deepika Padukone, Jackie Shroff, Shobana and Aadi Pinisetty. It is produced jointly by Eros International and Mediaone Global Entertainment.
The film's audio is slated to be released in October.

ALDIE, Va. (AP) — Past champion Kirk Hanefeld shot a 2-over 74 on Saturday at Creighton Farms to take a two-stroke lead into the final round of the Senior PGA Professional National Championship.
The 55-year-old Hanefeld, the 2008 winner from Acton, Mass., had a 9-under 207 total. He began the round with a six-stroke lead after breaking the tournament 36-hole record at 11 under.
Playing partner Ken Martin of Wellington, Fla., was second after a 69. He missed a 3-foot par putt on 18.
Because of wet conditions, preferred lies were used for the third straight day.
The top 35 finishers will earn spots in the Senior PGA Championship in May at Harbor Shores in Benton Harbor, Mich. The top five will receive exemptions into the final stage of the 2011 Champions Tour Q-school.

I enjoyed the behind the scene video and resulting commercial. I just find the still image disturbing -there's something weirdly wrong with the body proportions and pose.Â
 the head is to large..probably head swapped in post
i think it might be that her arms are stretched out behind her and in a still like this, one might see her as having small arms and hands stretched outward. Â Plus the unnatural combination of her being totally dry while swimming....very strange indeed
She is wet indeed! ^^
i liked the bts video more than the actual commercial, ha!
I hate commercial photography for the simple fact it looks so artificial all the time. I miss the 70's-80's-90's where things had a more natural feel to them.
...and what the heck is Slash doing at the shoot at 1:16?
Not a fan of the interview, too... "all about pantene cheezyness" but the shoot was awesome

Teenager cited in Plainfield home invasion
PLAINFIELD — Vermont State Police say an Essex Junction teen broke into a Plainfield home early Tuesday.
State police say Philip Hoeppner, 64, was at home on Cameron Road when he heard a noise inside his house. When Hoeppner yelled to see what the noise was, he heard a loud crash and the door to his residence opening. State police say a passer-by told Hoeppner a male juvenile had been seen running from the house into a wooded area.
Police say items had been tampered with and a piece of jewelry taken.
The juvenile was later found with the assistance of police dogs and cited on a burglary charge.
The teen, whose name has not been released, is to be arraigned in Washington County criminal court in Barre on Oct. 17.MORE IN This Just InCINCINNATI Panicked zoo visitors watched helplessly and shouted, Stay calm! while one woman...

The VAR Guy seems to remember Sierchio and Cogent Growth Partners C0-founder David Schafran participating in an MSP-centric panel together about a year or so ago at SMB Nation conference in Las Vegas. Was that the beginning of discussions between Sierchio and Cogent? Hmmm... The VAR Guy doesn't know for sure.
Either way, it sounds like Sierchio has made an immediately impact at Cogent. He's been with the company since January 2012, but an announcement didn't surface until a few days ago. That PR push suggests to The VAR Guy that Cogent and Sierchio have hit their stride together.
Meanwhile, Cogent is one of the few (hmmm... the only?) consultants that has focused entirely on buy-side merger guidance for MSPs. Moreover, the Cogent team has been known to respectfully decline potential M&A consulting engagements that involved questionable M&A deals.

SX260 Noise in video
I shot a few test videos with my new/used SX260 today. Video quality is good BUT the audio sounds like there is running water in the background. It can be easily heard over outside sounds of nature, and even inside in a closed silent room. Basically all the time. Is this normal? Zoom noise from lens is not too bad.

A DevOps Approach to WebSphere Deployments
Jacqi Levy 270003E0DF firstname.lastname@example.com | | Tags:  ibmimpact urbancode application_deployment websphere devops
0 Comments | 4,980 Visits
You may be aware that IBM acquired UrbanCode last year for its capabilities in application release and deployment automation, which enhance IBM's DevOps capabilities. However, you may not be aware of how nicely UrbanCode integrates with some of the products that you're probably more familiar with, like WebSphere Application Server (WAS).
IBM UrbanCode Deploy's integration with WAS provides both automatic environment configuration and process automation. The product's auto-discovery and auto-configuration features can prevent a huge amount of manual data entry, as well as manually introduced errors. These features allow you to add new WAS environments quickly, and to keep up with changes in the WAS environment with "one click" auto-configuration.
UrbanCode's expert team provide some great tips on how the WebSphere integration works on their new developerWorks blog. In addition, they have recently released some new educational resources that will help you better understand the technology. This 8 minute video provides a quick overview of how to WebSphere Topology AutoDiscovery works in IBM UrbanCode Deploy:
If you're interested in going more in-depth, the team also recently held a joint webcast with the Global WebSphere Community, Taking a DevOps Approach to WebSphere Deployments with IBM UrbanCode Deploy, which you can watch on demand.
In addition, there will be some great content this year on UrbanCode/WebSphere integration at the Impact 2014 conference, so join us there and be sure to check out the Application Infrastructure track.

weather I'm skiing in a whiteout at 11,000 feet on Mount Rainier, or biking around in a blizzard when I was going to school in snow country, I'm always amazed at how little i need to wear to stay warm when I am active. Today i started out with 2 thin wool t shirts and an athletic jacket with shorts, and wound up peeling one of the t's off for the afternoon riding. I wonder what you were wearing today, Vrkelley?
I don't get a chance to do really thick layers much at sea level around puget sound, but even skiing at 11,000 feet at 15 degrees with 60 mph winds, a wool base layer, sweater and windproof layer will keep you warm as toast. for most biking around pugetopolis its even less.

so i guess im VERY late on the CNC phase in bikes as it seems most of these components are form the 90's. but i really eat this stuff up. im building a road/city bike and already have some CNC MTB components on it (precision billet derailleur, thomson seatpost/stem, paul thumbies, bullseye levers) but does anyone know if theres such thing as CNC machined riser bars?
ps. i have no valid reason for wanting this other than knowing that it is exactly what i want.

"SMALL BUT BEAUTIFUL TRAUNKIRCHEN" Traunkirchen by balhannah
Traunkirchen Travel Guide: 32 reviews and 60 photos
I read Traunkirchen is one of the most picturesque places of the Salzkammergut.
Did it live up to its reputation?
A picture perfect village, it's situated by Lake Traunsee, it has a nice Church and Chapel, the Lake, Mountains, pretty gardens and interesting buildings.
Old archaeological findings have been found here from the Neolithic days and the Bronze age.
If you are interested in this little Village, then you might want to come for some of the annual events.
This area has a lot of traditions and customs, one of them is the........
GLOCKLERLAUF, A procession held on February 5th, to awaken the spirits of spring. Men in ancient costumes, bells and dancing are part of the festival.
ANTLASSINGEN, Is held on the night before Good Friday, is another ancient ritual. The towns folk walk through the Village singing a specific chant in commemoration of the fear and passion of Christ.
The procession starts at 9am and concludes at 3am on Good Friday.
FRONLEICHNAM - CORPUS CHRIST PROCESSION, Is rather different, as it's a procession of Boats on the Lake.
There are others, just ask or ring the local information centre.
There is a network of hiking trails, spots for bathing, water sports, boat rentals and cruises, running trails and mountain bike routes and a natural toboggan run in the winter.
It's a good base to explore nearby Hallstatt and other attractions in the area, and is much less touristy.
Why wouldn't you want to come here!
We are now driving a short distance to another Town on Lake Traun which is GMUNDEN
I hope you will come, as the Villages and Towns in this area are pretty and historical.
- Pros:Pretty, Pretty, Pretty!
- In a nutshell:A drop, dead, gorgeous Village!

Thanks for that virtual tour!
Such a pretty town and in a lovely setting. I love the chapel on the hill and the walk past the boat sheds :-)
Oh beautiful! I love the little chapel on the hill. And wonder fi the town was also affected by the flood this year.
Another beautiful village with a magnificent lakeside setting.
It is a pity that this village is mostly overseen by the ordinary tourists driving directely to Hallstatt !

Agent, distributor and producer in Santa Monica, California
William added 9 photos
I was born on February 12, 1964. I grew up mostly in the northeastern United States and became interested in electronics by the age of 16 years old. By the age of 18 years old, I had become interested in radios, television and mainframe computers. About a year later Microsoft was just coming out with the Windows Operating System. Since the release of the very first version of Windows, I had become hooked on the Windows Operating System. As the years went by I used and learned every version of Microsoft software that ever came out but I wanted more so I started learning and using all the major software that was coming out. But during this time I would build and repair ham radios, televisions and stereos for a living until I decided to become a firefighter in Kitty Hawk, NC. After about 2 years in the Fire Department I found myself building computers and servers to start a new business. After I built and incorporated a business, I decided to learn even more skills to enhance my electronic skills and knowledge. After a few more variety of certifications I wanted to find a way that I could make a difference and give back to society by providing my complex skills and knowledge to help give back to the people that helps shape everyone's lives. The "Stars of Hollywood". After 30+ years in computer science and related fields, I am finally getting my opportunity to make history and help mankind. Starting with the "Stars of Hollywood", & Artists.
I am currently building the the "Stars of Hollywood Network" so I can give back to the stars. The Stars of Hollywood Network is the first official VPOS worldwide online "Smithsonian of the Stars". Over 100 countries of qualifying "Stars of Hollywood" members will be entered into this worldwide network.

Learning & Tech
Brains At Play
This week at NPR Ed, our series Playing To Learn will explore questions about why people play and how play relates to learning.
Why do we humans like to play so much? Play sports, play tag, play the stock market, play duck, duck, goose? We love it all. And we're not the only ones. Dogs, cats, bears, even birds seem to like to play. What are we all doing? Is there a point to it all?
The scientist who has perhaps done more research on brains at play than any other is a man named Jaak Panksepp. And he has developed a pretty good hypothesis.
In a nutshell, he, and many others, think play is how we social animals learn the rules of being social. Sort of counterintuitive when you think about it: Play is how you learn rules.
You might learn what your fellow humans think is fun. And what they think isn't so fun. You might learn what your limits are. Or which of your friends likes what.
In fact, play seems so deeply wired by evolution into the brains of highly social animals that it might not be a stretch to say that play is crucial to how we and they learn much of what we know that isn't instinct. In one experiment (not Panksepp's), kittens deprived of play still could hunt perfectly well when they grew up, but they couldn't read other cats' social cues — they jumped to aggression much more quickly than normally raised cats.
Not surprisingly, Panksepp and others think the lack of play is a serious problem. Especially at younger ages. And particularly in school settings. Without play, we know that other species become quick to aggression and have trouble "fitting in." Panksepp thinks the rising rates of ADD and ADHD may in part be due to this problem. In trials where extra playtime was given to kids showing signs of these disorders, there was marked improvement in their behaviors as reported by teachers and parents.
"It's not just superfluous," says Panksepp. "It's a very valuable thing for childhood development. And we as a culture have to learn to use it properly and have to make sure our kids get plenty of it."

Color fringing, the result of chromatic aberrations [see (1) and (2)] is a problem with many lenses, but is particularly an issue with shift lenses because of their extra-wide field of view, which tends to exacerbate the problem.
Color fringing manifests itself as red and cyan/green borders on higher contrast edges. In more severe cases, it also results in an overall blurry look to image detail. Color fringing in a quality lens should not appear in the center of the frame, but will increase as the edges of the image circle is approached.
Here is an example of severe color fringing (actual-pixels crop from D2X with Nikon 10.5mm/f2.8DX, corner of the frame):

This invention relates to a method of manufacturing and installing lightweight, concrete-encased house wall panels.
The construction of a conventional lumber-framed house has evolved into a slow and expensive process.
The original simple one-trade, one-material house, held together with nails or mortar, is now a complex process. This process now involves approximately twelve different trades, approximately twenty different suppliers, and an even larger number of fixing methods.
The introduction of these many different construction materials and fixing methods, together with the development of the different skills required to assemble these materials, has resulted in a very slow and relatively expensive residential construction process.
The house construction methods have also evolved and divided up into many specialized groups of tradesmen, each with their own materials, tools, and construction techniques.
Consequently this entire house construction process is now slow and expensive. Slow because of the time to assemble a large variety of main components and a large quantity and variety of fasteners, and because of the complexity of supplying these construction components in a specific order, using the appropriate tradesmen.
The expence is further driven up by:
1. The labor cost of organizing this complex construction process.
2. Division of responsibilities between the various trades, in turn creating a lack of continuity of work, thus adding to the labor costs.
3. The cost of handling and temporarily storing these individual components.
4. The cost of clean up and disposal of the building waste materials.
The choice of building materials relates to its durability, and the costs of these selected materials. Durable materials, such as brick and stone, are generally more expensive to purchase, transport and erect primarily because of the additional labor costs involved in manufacturing, handling, and selling these very large quantities of small, heavy construction elements to make the basic walls of a house.
The ability of the conventional exterior wall siding to resist the natural elements is primarily related to the quality of the workmanship and the durability of the materials selected.
The ability of the individually selected siding and trim materials to resist warping depends largely on the ability of the selected material to resist the absorption of moisture and heat with very little expansion or contraction and the frequency of the attaching and interlocking methods.
In order to resist the intrusion of rain and the subsequent damage to the building materials, it is essential that all joints on the outside face of the walls are tight and caulked, and that all exposed edges and faces be protected with a suitable paint.
One type of siding material consists of thin cementious strips in the shape of lumber siding with a wood-grained surface. This durable wood fibre reinforced concrete siding material is fixed in the conventional manner with nails and caulked joints. This durable material does not offer any substantial cost saving.
Frequently contractors use other cheaper less durable siding materials such as 8'×4' sheets of plywood with vertical grooves and with interlocking vertical joints.
The complexity of the construction of a typical external house wall can be revealed by observing the numerous layers of material, starting with siding over a thermal and/or insulating substrate attached to a lumber or light gauge steel frame, and including gypsum wall sheeting over the interior face of the wall.
The external wall cavity between each wall facing is filled with an insulation material. Also in this cavity are brackets securing the wall to the floor and roof, and diagonal braces together with electrical wiring and plumbing elements. A closer inspection will reveal numerous fastening devices and finishing methods at these fasteners.
The siding and trim members are nailed to the frame, with the nail heads frequently set below the surface and the nail head cavities filled and sealed to hide the nail heads. Care must be exercised in selecting the correct siding nail to avoid weathering and rusting of the nail head, which in turn spoils the external surface of the wall.
The substrate is also nailed to the frame and frequently this substrate sheet has a large number of nails so that the shear value of these nails together with the substrate sheeting creates a structural diaphragm to resist the lateral wind forces applied to each wall from an adjacent wall.
Additional fasteners are used to assemble the wall frame, and to anchor the wall frame to the floor, to other walls, and to the structural elements above the wall.
Additional structural anchor brackets are now used in this wall frame to secure the roof and walls in the event of wind and earthquake. Each of these brackets has its own fastening devices.
Staples are generally used to attach the insulation materials.
The gypsum wall board is fastened to the wall frame with nails or screws, with the nail or screw heads set below the surface and covered with a drywall mud to hide these heads. All of the joints between the gypsum wall boards are attached to each other with drywall mud and tape so that this wall surface remains an integral piece and the joint lines are not visible.
Interior walls are similar in construction to external walls, except the external sheathing and substrate is replaced with gypsum wall board and the insulation materials are omitted.
The size and shape of each of these individual components has evolved around the fact that each component should remain as versatile as possible.
To this end an entire set of easily recognized sizes and manufacturing standards have been devised to accommodate this construction industry. For example 2"×4"×94" lumber studs spaced at 16" or 24" centers within an 97" high wall. The actual lumber size, wood species, growth imperfections, straightness, and fastening methods are clearly defined. Other examples are the standard 48"×96" sheet size for siding and plywood.
Other factors adding to costs and complexity of construction include more stringent regulations relating to the ability of the house to resist rain, fire, hurricane, earthquake, termites, heat loss, etc.
Another factor influencing the cost of a conventional lumber-framed wall is the increasing cost and the decreasing quality of lumber.
As a result some contractors are now turning to light-gauge galvanized steel framing materials to replace lumber. Unfortunately, carpenters are not skilled as sheet metal workers, thus they need to be retrained in the techniques of using sheet metal.
Other contractors are using factory-assembled, partially completed walls and partially assembled houses in an effort to reduce on-site labor costs.
There are numerious existing methods of constructing concrete-faced panels with expanded polystyrene insulation. One such panel consists of two layers of structural concrete panels separated by a relatively thin layer of insulation and these two concrete layers laced together with small steel trusses (Insteel). These panels are heavy normal weight concrete separated by the insulation panel, without internal ribs and the appearance of a typical house wall.
Another such panel consists of insulation panels separated by structural steel studs and a relatively thick concrete face on one side of the panel only. The second face is covered with gypsum board after erecting these panels. These panels are relatively heavy and incomplete in the manufacturing process.
Still other systems consist of vertical modular panels usually of a common width, that are interlocked together mechanically. The joints between these panels require mechanical seals and the panel joint line is generally not acceptable in house construction.
Still other systems consist of expanded polystyrene blocks assembled on site with both faces plastered. This process is a relatively slow process and not a complete factory-produced product, with a specific desirable texture.
A lightweight structural concrete wall panel for house construction, includes a sandwich construction of two thin fibre reinforced concrete faces enclosing vertical panels of insulation material consisting of expanded polystyrene. Vertical structural concrete ribs between the insulation panels are used to interconnect the concrete faces. A continuous track system cast in the upper edge of projecting connect bars at the lower edge of the wall, connecting this wall to the surrounding structure in such a manner that the floor slab can be poured after erecting the walls. The face of the wall panel can be cast in such a manner as to appear as siding or another desirable building surface. Window and door openings can also be cast into this wall.
FIG. 1 is an isometric view of a precast concrete house wall showing the external architectural features on the wall such as siding, and windows, and the wall connection to the floor and roof.
FIG. 2 is an isometric view of a precast concrete wall showing the internal structure of the wall.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged typical vertical section through the upper portion of the wall.
FIG. 4 is an enlarged typical vertical section through the lower portion of the wall.
FIG. 5 is a typical horizontal section through the wall, showing the construction of the wall.
FIG. 1 is an isometric sketch of pad of a house wall (1) with a lower connecting device (2) and an upper track (3) with the lower part of the external face of this wall containing a horizontal siding pattern (4) and additional architectural feature of a decorative horizontal wood grained beam (5). The upper external face of the wall (6) is shown without any decorative finish. A window (7) and doorway (8) are also included in this sketch.
FIG. 2 is an isometric sketch of pad of a house wall (1) showing the internal structure of the wall panel (1), the vertical blocks of expanded polystyrene (12) with tapered edges totally encased in concrete, the outside skin (13) shown without any decorative surface, the inside skin (11), the upper beam (15) at the top of the wall containing the continuous track (3), the vertical I shaped concrete structural rib (16) between the expanded polystyrene blocks (12) and the lower horizontal beam (17) containing the floor connecting device (2).
FIG. 3 is a vertical section through the upper beam (15) of the wall panel (1) showing the continuous upper track (3), the outer skin (13) the expanded polystyrene, the insulation block (12), the inner skin (11 ), and the reinforcing steel (18) attached to the upper track (3).
FIG. 4 is a vertical section through the lower beam (17) showing the projecting floor connecting device (2), the outer skin (13) and the expanded polystyrene internal insulating block (12). Reinforcing steel (19) is shown within this lower beam (17).
FIG. 5 is a typical horizontal section through part of a wall, showing the vertical ribs (16) with reinforcing steel (20) cast between the blocks of expanded polystyrene insulation (12) with tapered edges, and the external concrete skin (13) and the internal concrete skin (11).
The preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the attached drawings which are referred to herein. The same reference numeral will be used to identify identical elements throughout the drawings.
FIG. 1 illustrates the exterior appearance a precast concrete wall 1 illustrating some of the various types of surface textures that can be cast into the face of these walls. Illustrated is horizontal siding 4, a belly-band with wood grained surface 5, and a smooth face 6 interrupted by a window 7 and door 8. The connection means to the roof or floor above is a continuous track 3 cast into the upper edge of the wall. At the lower edge of the wall is another connection device 2 comprising numerous projecting steel reinforcing bars that subsequently connect this precast wall to the floor.
FIG. 2 illustrates the internal construction of this precast concrete wall 1, showing the blocks of insulation 12 consisting of expanded polystyrene manufactured and positioned in such a manner as to create a void to form the structural concrete elements within the panel, such as the vertical ribs 16, the upper beam 15, the lower beam 17. The inner and outer faces of this insulating material 12 are also covered with thin structural concrete surfaces that create structural diaphragms on either side of the wall panel. The outer face 13 and inner face 11 of the wall can be cast in such a manner as to include any desirable surface shape or texture such as siding or other architectural features. Additional openings can be cast into this concrete wall to create window and door openings.
Additional provisions can be made to interconnect these walls with adjacent walls. These wall panels are cast in such a manner that the concrete is poured monolithically and totally envelopes the insulating material.
FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 show specific structural elements within the wall panels.
The upper track 3 are attached to steel reinforcing bars 18 that is cast into the concrete upper beam 15, to stiffen the upper edge of the wall and connect this wall to the structure above.
The lower edge of the wall is similarly constructed with steel reinforcing bars 19 and projecting connector bars 2 are cast into the lower beam 17 so that this wall can be erected and subsequently anchored to the floor.
FIG. 5 illustrates typical vertical ribs 16 within the wall showing the specific shape of the monolithically cast concrete surrounding the insulation material 12. Included within these vertical ribs 16 is steel reinforcing 20 and progressively thickened surfaces on either side of the wall panel that contribute to the strength of the vertical rib and the faces of the wall.
With the present invention a builder may to manufacture a complete structural wall using cementious faces wall of the desirable elements of a wall such as strength, durability, insulation, various surfaces textures, impervious to termites and decay, and resists natural elements such as rain, wind, fire, earthquake and flood.
With the present invention the builder may manufacture these one piece walls in a cost-controlled factory environment where all the walls of a house can be premade and shipped to the house site, complete with windows.
With the present invention the builder may eliminate many of the on site tradesmen involved in assembling a conventional framed house, namely, rough framing carpenters, insulation installers, siding installers, rough-in electricians, rough-in plumbers and finish carpenters, including their tools and equipment.
With the present invention the builder may reduce many components that make up a wall.
With the present invention the builder may eliminate all of the fastening components such as nails, screws, brackets and hold down bolts with the use of one complete concrete wall component with built in fastening systems.
With the present invention the builder may eliminate all of the joints between the wall components that normally must be accurately fitted together on site, caulked or taped, and edge painted to either exclude weather or cover the unsightly joint between members.
With the present invention the builder may be able to include windows and/or doors in these preassembled walls, including the trim members surroundings these elements.
With the present invention the builder may have these wall assemblies with internal insulation to meet national energy codes.
With the present invention the builder may have these concrete walls light enough to handle with readily available cranes. Conventional concrete wall weight approximately four times (4) as much as these lightweight wall panels. In addition, these walls for one entire single family house can be transported on one truck, whereas solid concrete walls for the same house would need 3 to 4 trucks to carry the same walls.
With the present invention the builder may be able to reproduce any desirable surface texture on the face of the wall panel, such as wood grained siding, smooth plaster, horizontal or vertical grooves or projections, brick and block patterns and stone etc. in the monolithic surface of the wall panel.
With the present invention the builder may simplify and speed up the house construction process by premanufacturing these walls off site and rapidly site assembling these completed walls with the use of a crane.
With the present invention the builder may be able to temporarily store, handle and erect these wall panels in inclement weather, without damage to the wall panel surfaces. Conventional internal walls are faced with paper-faced gypsum boards and joined with a water soluble jointing compound. This type of wall facing material can only be safely installed after the house is made weatherproof, otherwise, rain will ruin these gypsum board walls. The concrete faced panels of this invention are impervious to rain damage.
With the present invention the builder may have a wall panel that can be easily connected to the adjacent wall panels, to the floor below, and to the ceiling above these wall panels in such a manner as to exclude moisture and drafts.
With the present invention the builder may shape the voids between the preshaped blocks of insulation so the concrete surrounding this insulation is formed in suitable structural I beams and U beam shapes that provide sufficient structural strength to the panel with the minimum amount of concrete.
With the present invention the builder may provide steel reinforcing to the panel to provide sufficient strength to the structural shapes within the panel.
With the present invention a builder may manufacture a wall panel that is not subject to termite damage. The concrete panel surface is unbroken, thus excluding all termites, insects, vermin etc.
With the present invention a builder may have a durable, hard resistant surface on both faces of the wall panel, unlike drywall with a paper finish or wall siding consisting of unfinished wood or compressed wood fibres.
With the present invention a builder may have a fire resistant panel, able to resist internal or external fires.
Thus the reader will see that a monolithically poured concrete wall with two very thin cementious skins with additional reinforced concrete ribs and beams surrounding thick panels of insulation material is disclosed. This manufactured wall contains additional attaching means and a desirable surface texture. While the above descriptions contains many specific, these should not be construed as limitations on the scope of the invention, but rather as one preferred embodiment thereof.

I have quilted on and off since I was little. I started again seriously when we lived in Texas just doing quilt tops. Since moving to Ohio and having breast cancer, which I have beat, my husband has built me a beautiful quilting studio above the garage and we purchased a Nolting 24" Pro so as my husband says "maybe we can save some money by me finishing my quilts and maybe bring in bring in some money by helping others finish theirs."

Molly Sullivan, Claude Boone, Rosemary Chambers, Donald Banks
judge banks and attorney claude boone are pretty tight.
if you are a male in rosemary chambers court room and molly sullivan is not your attorney, you will not only loose but get royally screwed!!!!!!
if you feel that you have been wronged, you legally have the right to an appeal which is what i have done. they only look at things that were discussed in the lower court so make sure you make your issues known in the circuit court!!!! the court of appeals, follows the law and case law.
10 comments:
The person who left this comment is so right, If Molly Sullivan is the G.A.L in A case the male is always going to be the one to win. My ex husband and I took a psyc test and he failed and was still awarded full custody of my children. I have been fighting for 10 years to see my son and Daughter, even though I have pleanty of visitation rights, more then usual I still dont see my babies. Molly Sullivan will not do anything about it! She is for the men and totaly against the women, I have no criminal history and my exhusband does, several counts of domestic violence against myself while I was pregent with our children and while I wasent. Molly Sullivan is a Bad GAl she is suppose to do what is best for the children but she does what is best for her.ReplyDeleteReplies
Tell me the system isn't corrupt when Molly Sullivan wins 100% of her cases in Rosemary Chambers courtroom and when she is appointed as GAL 90% of the time??Delete
That is because Molly Sullivan is a scorned vindictive woman! So pathetic!!!!ReplyDelete
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
BEWARE OF Johnny Lane, Claude BOone, Jerry Pilgrim, Moolly Sullivan(she used to work for Claude Boone, and almost all psych evals, GALS and attyns. This is nothing but a racket for skewing the hell out of the information presented to court and Chambers is nothing short of a mentally power mad witch.ReplyDelete
Thank you for taking on this action. It is greatly needed throughout Alabama and the country.ReplyDeleteReplies
I am not sure how much good I am doing but I am trying. These power-headed idiot Judges say that they are doing what is in the best interest of children, and they are not! They could care less about what is best for children! They are playing God and children are being screwed up for life b/c of it!Delete
My husband won custody of his kids. Judge Chambers was his judge and Molly Sullivan was not his lawyer. So, we have no problem with Judge Chambers.ReplyDelete
Well I had chambers and sullivan as GAL and the mother failed drug test I did not and she failed mental evaluation and I was awarded custody as well as the 14 and ten year old we have together wanted to live with me I did win I feel that was the best interest and i am happy with outcomeReplyDelete

In the picturesque village of Nether Westcote on the border of Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire, The Feathered Nest has marvellous views over the Evenlode Valley. Originally an old malthouse, the pub has been thoughtfully designed to retain the original character, especially in the cosy log-fired bar, where local and award-winning real ales are on offer. Herbs and vegetables are grown in the kitchen garden, with local produce forming the backbone of the menus. As well as bar snacks, the modern British cuisine brings a daily set lunch menu for relaxed eating in the bar, and on the garden terrace (shaded by a sycamore tree) when the weather allows. Blackboard specials could include darne of hake, saut�ed potatoes, kale and caper butter. The seasonal � la carte offers a modern take on classic combinations, such as wood pigeon pastrami, red cabbage, celeriac, apple and flat bread; and stone bass, squid ink pearl millet, sea purslane and langoustine bisque. For simpler tastes there's a selection from the charcoal grill; maybe 28-day aged rib-eye steak with skinny chips, b�arnaise or peppercorn sauce and mixed leaf salad. Be sure to leave room for desserts such as passionfruit parfait with caramel sauce and pine nuts. Afternoon tea and Sunday lunch are also served. Individually decorated bedrooms furnished with antiques and comfortable beds are available; the pub makes an excellent base from which to explore the countryside and the quaint and charming villages nearby. Look out for enjoyable events that run throughout the year, including a pie and pint tasting evening, live jazz, and a quiz night.

HOUSTON (AP) - The Harris County sheriff's department has changed its K-9 units policy as a result of the death two weeks ago of a drug-sniffing dog who was left in an air-conditioned vehicle.
Lt. Ricky Williams of the Harris County Organized Crime and Narcotics Task Force said Monday dogs can no longer be left alone in a vehicle for more than 10 minutes.
A black Labrador retriever named Drake died July 16 while deputy John Palermo attended a required street-survival training session at a church near Katy.
The day was hot and humid, and Palermo did not want to leave Drake in a kennel all day at his home, Williams said. Instead, he brought the dog, which the county paid $5,000 for, to the session and left him in an air-conditioned Chevrolet Tahoe.
"He checked on the dog at every break," Williams said. "At 11 a.m., the dog was fine. At noon, he was dead. "He (Palermo) is devastated."
At the time of Drake's death, department policy allowed deputies to keep their dogs in air-conditioned vehicles while they attended court, training sessions and other functions where the dog was not needed.
"Until we figure out what happened to Drake, we have changed the policy," Williams said.
An autopsy report is not complete, Williams said. At first it was thought the dog died from poisoning, but that has been ruled out.
Drake, who was almost 2 years old, had been with the department for about five months, Williams said.

Happy Friday, D Home organizers!
One of my favorite places in my home is the kitchen. It's where I gather with friends, attempt to make Pinterest-inspired recipes, and laugh over a glass of wine. With all the use kitchens undergo every day, they tend to get unintentionally unorganized. Luckily, there are cool tools out there to help keep the disarray at bay, and let's be real, we're always up for a shopping trip.
Terri Fuller, "chief encouraging organizer" of Top Drawer Organizing, chatted with her colleagues this week to come up with a list of top five must-buys for kitchen organization. With these handy helpers, your kitchen will go from a mess to easy-to-navigate in just one trip to the Container Store or other home supply retailer.Read More

Demtoco donates brush cutters to ECHO
The Demerara Tobacco Company (Demtoco) has donated two brush cutters to the Environmental Community Health Organisation (ECHO).
ECHO, in press release, thanked Demtoco for its good corporate support, while saying they will enhance the non-governmental organisation's capacity to develop the Thomas Street Avenue beautification project initiated last year.
Its objectives include improving the aesthetics of that area to provide a place of relaxation for residents.
The brush cutters will also be used in a wider programme to provide environmental services to local communities and will provide employment for three persons, the release added.
The brush cutters were handed over by Keisha Phaul Baptiste, Area Manager, Demtoco to Michael Vanderstoop, director of ECHO.

Buchser v. Buchser
Annotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
Buchser v. Buchser, 231 U.S. 157 (1913)
Buchser v. Buchser
No. 641
Submitted November 3, 1913
Decided November 17, 1913
Unless the statutes of the United States control, this Court follows the state court as to whether real estate is separate or community property.
Until the title of an entryman is completed, the laws of the United States control; but after completion, the land becomes immediately subject to state legislation. McCune v. Essig, 199 U. S. 382.
Even if the United States could impress a peculiar character upon land within a state after parting with it, it would only be by clearly expressing it in a statute, which has not been done. Wright v. Morgan, 191 U. S. 55.
A state law that, after completion of the entryman's title, the property becomes community property is not like a contract for sale to a third party, but is consistent, and not in conflict, with the provisions of the Act of March 3, 1891, prohibiting alienation of homestead entries. The highest court of the State of Washington having held that, immediately on completion of title of an entryman, the property becomes community property, and that, on the death of the wife after such completion, her children have an interest therein, this Court follows that decision.
202 F. 854 affirmed.
The facts, which involve the construction and application of statutes of the Washington relating
to property acquired by an entryman under the laws of the United States, are stated in the opinion.

MEDFORD, Ore. (AP) — The city of Medford says it is close to a compromise with a group of irate residents who say a new police communications tower could damage home prices in the area.
The Medford Mail Tribune reports (http://bit.ly/zEVPx3 ) the residents want the tower shortened by 30 feet or moved.
The city erected the tower in December 2010, but it never became operational because of an appeal to the Land Use Board of Appeals.
The city's police department estimates cost of relocating the tower would be $180,000.
Police in Medford say the tower is a necessary replacement for the existing tower.
The city is accepting bids from contractors who would move or shorten the tower.

text: Arriving by BusAlthough the Byzantines only controlled Izola for a short time over a thousand years ago, the regional bus operator Veolia has apparently dedicated their timetables to the notoriously complex empire. The arrival and departure times are affixed with a dizzying array of letters and symbols (up to seven characters long) denoting the days and seasons that the listed time is actually in operation, which inevitably leads to much double- and triple-checking accompanied by understandable frustration. The good news is that buses to Portorož and Piran, and to Koper and onward to the rest of Slovenia run frequently from the outside the main post office on Cankarjev Drevored.Arriving by CarFrom Ljubljana take the A1 motorway to Koper, and follow the signs to Portorož which will take you the remaining 4km along the coast on Route 111. From Trieste in Italy take the S15 south to Koper and follow the directions above.

America's Next Top Model
ANTM Call the Shots, Cycle 15, Episode 7
There was a moment during this week's panel when Tyra said very gravely, "There's a good chance that the girl who's going home today is going home because she didn't know who the designer was." A great line, but the more accurate statement would be, "There's a good chance if you did a decent imitation of this Google Image, you can stay." Here are our three gripes with the photo shoot and the panel that followed:
1. The judges confused familiarity and mimicry. There's a big difference between knowing designers' work and being able to copy their facial expressions or gestures from a photo. Liz, the night's winner, had no idea who John Galliano was (and she had no problem sassing Mr. Jay about it, either). She looked through the folder, realized she and John were eyebrow soul mates, and went to work. In other words, Liz didn't lose any points for not knowing the designer ahead of time. She copied what she was given. If they were really trying to test their fashion industry knowledge, wouldn't it have been better to set up a pre-photo shoot challenge where the models had to match outfits with designers? Maybe? And to respond to Andre's slam of Jane as a Princeton girl who didn't do her homework, we really doubt this was the first time Jane heard of Marc Jacobs. She just couldn't embody him as well as they would've liked. That might be a reflection of her modeling abilities, but not her intelligence.
2. The models don't hang out with Vivienne Westwood on weekends. The judges threw in personal tidbits like, "Betsey's hilarious!" or "Oh, that Marc's such a laid back guy!" You might get some sense of personality from a photo, but it's not like these girls each had a ski weekend with their designer ahead of time. We don't know — Vera Wang might be last one on the dance floor. But we do know that from her photos, she looks like a quiet, unassuming designer dressed in all black. When Kendal said, "I'm trying to be simple. She's just real simple," we understood why she was having trouble getting a sense of what to do when the best help they offered was, "Be confident!" How is that specific to Vera Wang?
3. How were these designers assigned? Let's focus on just two of 'em. Chris got Betsey Johnson, a designer even people who don't care about fashion might be familiar with, given that her spider earrings are sold at the mall, and she does cartwheels down her runways. Esther got Christophe Decarnin. If this were a presidential photo shoot, the equivalent would be Chris as JFK and Esther as William Howard Taft. They both had the same job, but...c'mon. This doesn't mean Esther's near-elimination wasn't justified (and look at how well Ann did portraying a guy), but it's silly to pretend that some of these designers aren't also known for being characters. Did Chris get Betsey because of her big personality? Then why did Esther get Christophe? And while we're at it, did Chelsey get Carolina Herrera because in that white shirt, she could pass for a younger version of her anyway?
Ultimately, they were right about Kendal. She said it herself: "I do feel like I need more experience." The problem wasn't that she didn't look like Vera Wang — she didn't even look relaxed. We're just not sure a lack of industry info made the difference. It certainly didn't stop the winner.
