The invention relates to a device comprising receptacles that hold containers of liquid that must be covered except when the liquid contents are being aspirated.
In analyzers for testing biological fluids, for example the analyzer shown in U.S. Pat. No. 5,008,082, the patient's biological fluid is supplied via sample tubes to an aspirator, which then delivers it as is to a slide test element, or in some cases, to a dilution cup to which a diluent is added, also by the aspirator. Such diluents are supplied to the aspirator of the analyzer via vials or cups which are periodically refilled by the operator. However, it is important that such vials be re-capped or re-covered when aspiration is not occurring, to prevent evaporation. Covers which have to be removed and reapplied manually are unacceptable since they involve too much operator intervention.
It is known from the prior art to provide for automated means that remove covers of tubes of patient sample. See, for example, DE - GM 3,141,780. However, the covers that are removed are stoppers that are not replaced, so that such automated mechanism contributes nothing to automated means for removing and then replacing the covers of vials of liquid such as diluents. Still further, since the covers in question in the case of the stoppers of the prior art are not permanently mounted in the analyzer, they are potentially parts that can become loose within the analyzer, and therefore a source of jams.
Therefore, there has been a need prior to this invention to provide a device for automated removal and re-application of covers for containers in an analyzer, the covers being permanently secured to the device.
There is provided a device that meets the aforesaid need.
More specifically, there is provided a device for removing and re-applying a cover to an open container of liquid to be aspirated in an analyzer, the device comprising
a plurality of receptacles disposed in an array for holding a plurality of containers of such liquid,
a cover for each of the receptacles, of a size and shape sufficient to sealingly cover a container placed in each receptacle,
means for permanently attaching the cover to the receptacle, the attaching means including a retainer of each of the covers that is pivotably mounted on the receptacle,
and bi-stable pivot means in the device for pivoting the retainer and thus its cover towards and away from a container in the receptacle.
Accordingly, it is an advantageous feature of the invention that containers of diluent or other additive liquids are provided in an analyzer with covers that are both automatically operated for aspiration, and by their permanence do not become loose within the analyzer.
It is a related advantageous feature that the automatic operation of the covers permits manual operation as well.
Other advantageous features will become apparent upon reference to the following Detailed Description when read in light of the attached drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 shows a top view of the device according to the invention installed in the processing station of an analyzer; and
FIG. 2 shows a lateral view of the device according to FIG. 1 (cross-section along a line II--II in FIG. 1).
What follows is a description as the invention is applied to the preferred embodiments, in which the liquid contained is a diluent. Additionally, the invention is useful for containers of any liquid that is added to the patient sample in an analyzer, for any purpose. Because the covers of the device are permanently attached, the device most preferably is not used to provide the biological fluid samples, which usually come with their own covers (e.g., stoppers) already in place.
The device shown in FIG. 1 is arranged on a transport path 5 in the area of a processing station 4 of an analyzer.
Device 1 consists of a plurality of arranged receptacles 10 to receive containers 2 filled with liquid to use in the analysis. Preferably, receptacles 10 are linearly disposed.
Each receptacle 10 comprises a cover means 6 illustrated in its covering position and designed as a lid 60 arranged on an outrigger handle 73 of a retainer 70 and associated with the opening 20 of a container 2, said lid being pivotable about an axis of rotation 63 of a pin 12 extended along a longitudinal side of the device and supported in bearings 11 of a retainer.
On a longitudinal side of device 1 extending opposite to the bearings 11 each receptacle 10 is associated with a sensing mark 13 designed as a slot and arranged in a horizontally extending bar 15.
One of the receptacles 10 is aligned with an actuating means 3 arranged in processing station 4 and with an aspirating station 40 for the liquids of the containers 2 in which a sensor 14 designed as an optoelectric switch is arranged for detecting the sensing mark 13.
The actuating means 3 comprises an actuating element 30 including an actuating pin 31 projecting into the area of an arm 71 of retainer 70.
On one of its sides, retainer 70 includes a cam 74 which is concentrically arranged to the axis of rotation 63 and which is engaged by a hold-down element 75.
In FIG. 2, the lid 60 is shown both in its covering position 61 and in its uncovering position 62. Above the lid an aspirating head 41 is illustrated which is aligned with the center axis of container 2.
Beneath transport path 5 a microprocessor controlled, motor-driven eccentric drive 34 of actuating means 3 is arranged with its drive pin engaging with a horizontally protruding bifurcated lever arm 36 of actuating element 30.
Actuating element 30 which is designed as a flat slider is guided in a vertically extending channel 51 of a side wall 52 of transport path 5. In the area of the lower end of the actuating element 30 two sensing apertures 32 are arranged one above the other to cooperate with a sensor 33, said apertures being associated with the covering position 61 and the uncovering position 62 of the lid 60 or with the upper end position 37 and the lower end position 38 of the actuating element.
In its upper end position 37, an actuating pin 31 of actuating element 30 mounted to a retaining arm 39 is positioned above and outside a bifurcated guide means 72 of arm 71 of retainer 70, in which case 2 the lid lies planarly on the opening 20 of a container with the hold-down element 75 formed as a leaf spring engaging the extreme end of a flattened cam section 76 of cam 74.
In its lower end position 38, the actuating pin 31 rests on the lower prong of the fork of guide means 72, the lid 60 being positioned in a vertical uncovering position 62 pivoted by about 100 degrees from its previous position and the hold-down element 75 contacting the periphery of cam 74.
The device operates as follows: Initially, the device 1 is equipped with containers 2 filled with liquid outside the analyzer. For this purpose, the cover means 6 is manually pivoted by actuating retainer 70 by means of its outrigger handle 73 and moving it together with lid 60 from its horizontal covering position 61 to its vertical uncovering position 62. Then the closure (not illustrated) of a container 2 is removed and the container placed in the receptacle 10 of device 1. Subsequently, retainer 70 is manually pivoted back to its covering position 61 so that the opening 20 of the container is covered by the lid (see FIG. 2). This procedure is repeated until all receptacles 10 of device 1 are equipped with containers 2. In an input station (not illustrated) of the analyzer the device 1 is now placed on the horizontally extending transport path 5 and moved to a processing station 4 (shown in FIGS. 1 and 2) by means of a microprocessor-controlled transport means (not illustrated). In this position, device 1 is aligned with a receptacle 10 in the area of the actuating means 3 or with a container 2 in the aspirating station 40 beneath the aspirating head 41. Alignment is effected by means of sensor 14 arranged at the transport path 5 and the sensing marks 13 of device 1.
Then the actuating element 30 of the actuating means 3 is pulled down by means of the drive pin 35 of the microprocessor controlled, motor-driven eccentric drive 34. First, the lower sensing aperture 32 of the actuating element 30 is moved out of the sensing range of sensor 33. Then actuating pin 31 arranged at the upper end of the actuating element 30 hits the lower prong of guide means 72 of arm 71 and pivots retainer 70 together with lid 60 from its covering position 61 to its uncovering position 62. Actuating element 30 is moved downwards until it has reached the sensing range of sensor 33.
Then the aspirating head 41 is lowered into container 2 for removing liquid and, after an upward movement to its upper end position, moved to a further processing station (not illustrated).
Subsequently, eccentric drive 34 is started again and retainer 70 together with lid 60 is pivoted back to the covering position 61 by means of actuating element 30. Actuating pin 31 thereby hits first the upper prong of guide means 72 and pivots retainer 70 from its approximately vertical uncovering position 62 to its approximately horizontal covering position 61 before it releases guide means 72.
In this position, cam 74 of retainer 70 has pivoted about the axis of rotation 63 to the extent that cam section 76 contacts hold down element 75 and thus forms a lever arm which by means of the spring force of hold-down element 75 produces a torque that urges retainer 70 into its covering position 61 and presses lid 60 onto the opening 20 of container 2 such that evaporation, contamination or spilling of the liquid within and outside the analyzer is reliably prevented.
Thus, section 76 is a point of instability in cooperation with the spring action of element 75 such that the contact of element 75 against cam 74 urges the cam to rotate towards the first position contacting a container with the cover, when element 75 passes over section 76.
The invention disclosed herein may be practiced in the absence of any element which is not specifically disclosed herein.
The invention has been described in detail with particular reference to preferred embodiments thereof, but it will be understood that variations and modifications can be effected within the spirit and scope of the invention.

Set up of DOOM II by ZeurelWatch
©2008-2016 Zeurel
What confuses me is why does Logitech need such a GIANT sign on their keyboard :I
awesome workplace
How come you only have 2 speakers and 2 monitors? XD
Then I have an crappy 2007 imac with 2GB of RAM. Also has only two gb left of memory. Eeeek, time to change my setup.
DOOM II? More like BF4
Wheres the Cintiq? xD thats an intuos... amazing how he can do awesome stuff with an intuos when i cant get the hang of using mine... Im using the exact same one!!!!
Wow, mine took me 3 months and I still am not comfortable with it... You guys are awesome xD
The first 24 hours were extremely uncomfortable and I was worried, the first thing I made was this en1glvla.deviantart.com/art/OC… read the link I gave you it shows you 100% of what you need to know to make your Wacom efficient
Thankyou soooo much youve helped alot!!! the tablet pc settings thing was enabled and when I disabled it I noticed a significant difference when drawing! Ive also followed the drawing tutorials with the zooming and stuff, thanks a billion!
What size monitor is that?
Don't find it a bit awkward? I have a setup like that minus the tablet and it's awkward enough.. looking at getting some large flat desks. I hate like hell having my mouse off to the side and at a different elevation.. plus your keyboards way in the back.
I know, lets figure out a way to make this work using a lazy boy (or hospital bed), duct tape, and assorted food trays and tv wall mounts...
And pick up your mess, what if a girl came over?!
Looks crazy busy...
And oh my gosh, Pokemanz!!
And oh my gosh, Pokemanz!!
you really need cintiq 24HD for your awesome work
Is that an Intuos4?... extra large? Wild guess
What kind of tablet is that?
good tower.
oh my god
no wonder i can't anim-
no wonder i can't anim-
how hard is it at first to draw animation on a tablet, i would like to try animating but im noobing it up right now
Damn wish I had a setup like that.
You have the same speakers as me!
That is one HUGE tablet.
Lol I have that coffee mug and that Green cup!
That's one intense tablet man. Freaking awesome.
Woah you have an Alienware, no wonder you're animating so swiftly
So why do you need two monitors?
I have two monitors, and basically the point is just to make stuff more convenient and easy, I suppose. Like putting messages and such on one, and your animation on the other, that's what I do, lol.
OMG. My room looks the exact same. o3o
yeah that mess looks familiar!
i'm not alone after all!
i'm not alone after all!
lol, mine is epic too for doodles and sketches! my rig= extended desk, laptop, awshome pen, 9''x12'' sketchy book!
gigantic wacom tablet FTW
Man, i got the exact same speakers as you.
a Tablet, no WHONDER why the drawings are epic!
sweet battlestation and nice rig you need some biger speakers tho
how bout an updated version?? this pic is 3 years old
how bout an updated version?? this pic is 3 years old
You diabolical fiend!
Fucking awesome. But ive always wondered, whats with the second screen? I mean, ive heard of people using 3 screens side by side for gaming to get the whole "Look! Im IN the game now!" feeling. But i cant figure out the 2 screen thingy.
That tablet... is probably 5-6 times bigger than mine.
What kind of tablet is that?
Mines ten times smaller xD

WASHINGTON — The United States added a solid 171,000 jobs in October, and more than a half-million Americans joined the workforce, the latest signs that the uneven economic recovery is gaining strength once again.
In addition, more jobs were added in August and September than thought. The unemployment rate inched up to 7.9 percent because not all those joining the workforce found work, the government said Friday.
The report was the final snapshot of the economy before the presidential election.
"The economy is in a lot better shape than most people believe," said Joel Naroff, president of Naroff Economic Advisors. "That sets us up for stronger growth next year no matter who is elected on Tuesday."
A government survey of households found 578,000 Americans joined the workforce in October, the Labor Department said. Of those, 470,000 found work. The difference is why the unemployment rate rose from 7.8 percent in September.
WASHINGTON — Regulators on Friday closed a bank in Florida and one in Illinois, bringing the number to 49 U.S. bank failures this year.The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. seized Heritage Bank of Florida, based in Lutz, Fla., and Citizens First National Bank, based in Princeton, Ill.
The two bank failures are expected to cost the deposit insurance fund $110.7 million.
Heritage Bank had about $225.5 million in assets and $223.3 million in deposits as of Sept. 30. Centennial Bank, based in Conway, Ark., agreed to assume Heritage's deposits and purchase about $193.7 million of its assets.
Heritage Bank, which had three branches, is the eighth FDIC-insured institution to fail in Florida this year.
NEW YORK — Corporate America is just starting to add up its losses from Sandy, which is expected to be one of the most expensive storms in U.S. history. Delta Air Lines and Verizon were the first two major companies to state the obvious, and said Friday they will lose money because of the storm.
Delta had to cancel thousands of flights, while Verizon had cell towers blown out of commission and its offices flooded. Early estimates said Sandy might have caused up to $50 billion in economic damages, after shutting down the country's largest transportation system and knocking out power for millions of homes and businesses.
As companies turn the lights back on and employees return to their desks, experts said more companies will follow Delta and Verizon in the coming weeks as they tally up the storm's costs.
"We know trees are down, power is out and houses have been swept away," said Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at the brokerage BTIG in New York. "But it's going to take a lot of time to assess the damage. This could be a story well into the first few months of next year."
Chevron Corp. said Friday its third-quarter net income fell 33 percent as production declined and it sold oil and gas at lower prices.The nation's second-largest oil company earned $5.25 billion, or $2.69 per share, in the July-through-September quarter. That compared with net income of $7.83 billion, or $3.92 per share, in the year-ago quarter. Revenue fell to $55.66 billion from $61.26 billion.
The sluggish global economy has cut into worldwide demand for energy products, from gasoline and diesel to jet fuel. Concerns about economic growth have caused oil and natural gas prices to fall, hurting the bottom line for oil producers.
Exxon Mobil Corp., the nation's biggest oil company, said Thursday that net income fell 7 percent as production and prices fell. Improved refining results allowed it to beat Wall Street profit estimates, however.
Chevron's refining business was hurt by the loss of a crude unit in an August refinery fire.
Chevron, which is based in San Ramon, Calif., said disruptions to its Gulf of Mexico operations from Hurricane Isaac and planned maintenance at some international facilities curtailed production. Its operations remain idle off the shore of Brazil pending investigations into two oil spills.

"Horses for Courses (not starters though)" Top 5 Page for this destination Deauville-les-Bains by JohnnySpangles
Deauville-les-Bains Travel Guide: 29 reviews and 85 photos
The towns of Deauville and Trouville are linked at the hip like a pair of Siamese Twins. However, unlike a pair of Siamese Twins, there are only two of them whereas there'd be four of the Siamese twins…if you see where I'm coming from. Anyway, given their proximity my Deauville page is my Trouville Page and vice versa..confused?
Trouville has a very pleasant beach. As well as wielding their brushes down at Honfleur (see my Honfleur page), Monet and Boudin also turned out a few nice canvasses on the beach at Trouville. Indeed one of Monet's paintings in the National Gallery in London actually contains some grains of sand from the beach mixed in with the paint. However the French aren't demanding them back, unlike the Greeks and their Elgin Marbles…and on that particular issue, 'finders-keepers' is what I say. If any of you aren't familiar with that piece of Old English Legislation then it comes from the same Law Book that states 'He That Smelled It Dealt It'.
On the beach at Trouville these days there are plenty of diversions other than peering over the shoulders of impressionists. There's plenty for the kids to do including amusement rides, a swimming pool, treading in dog-poo and upsetting the locals. There's also a casino in which Winston Churchill used to gamble away the small hours with other European notables in the 20s and 30s. Indeed it was rumoured that the invasion of Poland but was nothing to do with a German desire for 'liebensraum' and more to do with settlement of an outstanding debt that he ran up playing 'Snap' with Hitler.
There's also a fantastic fish market on Saturdays but it isn't recorded as to whether Churchill ever bought his halibut there.
However, the real attraction of the area is the best value horse racing you'll find anywhere, especially in August. There are two racecourses in Deauville and throughout August there's a meeting every other day. There are books of vouchers to be had in campsites and tourist offices that mean you park free, get in free, free gifts for the kids and your only expense is the gambling (which is all on the tote). Even if you don't get the vouchers it is only a mere three euros for adults. The racecourses are spotless, stylish and families are welcomed. So, all in all, it's an excellent opportunity to fritter the holiday spending money at little additional expense.
Contrast this with the piece of mail awaiting me on my return to Angleterre that held the wonderful news that Sandown Park Racecourse was happy to offer me their 'bargain' entry price of only £15 to one of their evening meetings. Harrumph, I fear they know where they can stick that one.

A learning disability is a reduced intellectual ability and difficulty with everyday activities – for example household tasks, socialising or managing money – which affects someone for their whole life.
People with a learning disability tend to take longer to learn and may need support to develop new skills, understand complex information and interact with other people.
The level of support someone needs depends on individual factors, including the severity of their learning disability. For example, someone with a mild learning disability may only need support with things like getting a job. However, someone with a severe or profound learning disability may need full-time care and support with every aspect of their life – they may also have physical disabilities.
People with certain specific conditions can have a learning disability too. For example, people with Down's syndrome and some people with autism have a learning disability.
Learning disability is often confused with dyslexia and mental health problems. Mencap describes dyslexia as a "learning difficulty" because, unlike learning disability, it does not affect intellect. Mental health problems can affect anyone at any time and may be overcome with treatment, which is not true of learning disability.
It's important to remember that with the right support, most people with a learning disability in the UK can lead independent lives.

It's probably really difficult to properly torque a bottom bracket when you only weigh 85 pounds.
I would not be working on a bike of that caliber (or any bike for that matter) without a torque wrench. 40nm feels like a **** load of torque if you don't have confirmation.
Lol it's an issue I have.
But really I wasn't entirely trying to be funny. I'm a big ass dude and it isn't the easiest task to drop that kind of torque. It would be a lot harder if I was tiny.
Bet money he was using a little hex wrench too. Ain't no way he's torquing enough with the deck stacked that much against him.
long shot, but ive got a reynolds 531 ronkit frame from the 70s with 120mm rear spacing, and im ordering a wheelset with a formula high flange rear hub spaced at 120 also. using a generic crankset like this one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/290799865183?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649
i know the same exact one is under several different brand names, same with the formula hubs.
im not trying to play musical bb spindles too much, based off what little info i can give you, what do you think a good bb spindle length to start with would be? trying to just have my chainline real straight. gonna be using a 52t ring. should i just use the exact length spindle as the one it came with? it used to be a ten speed but a lot of the parts had been swapped out for ****tier ones or been mistreated over the years, so im just going to convert it. i know this is a really ******** question to ask but i figured maybe randomly from experiencing a similar situation you might know.
cool, im probably going to use a tange or shimano JIS taper cartridge/sealed BB. so how do i know the chainline will be straight if i grip on a 103? the 120 formula flip/flop hub fits right into my rear dropouts, so i dont have the ability to use spacers to get the chainline straight.. but thats probably good cause i dont want my wheel dished all weird. im pretty new to all this stuff, sorry if i ask ******** questions. are you saying that the formula track hubs are for 42mm chainlines? also idk if a 52 ring would bang the frame or not on a 103 spindle. im gonna go take a rough measurement of the bb spindle that came with it.
Also - your run-on post made my head spin. Capital letters, line breaks and paragraphs exist for a reason.
My lbs said they think that only a phil wood cog will would work on Phil hubs.. seems ********, no?
thats more along the lines of what he said now that i think about it, because i currently have EAI cog. Think i'll go with a phil cog and get it over with.
whats your take on: H+Son's EERO? ...& have you heard of anyone using brakes on them???
Weight: 790 grams
Material: 6061 Alloy
Height: 43.33333 mm
Size: 700c
Drillings: 32 36 48
Colors: Subject to change due to NASDAQ fluctuations and the RMB's appreciation.
Joint: Welded
ERD: 555 mm
Eero is a response to the demand for a stronger rim. With a similar profile to Formation Face, Eero is wider, slightly higher and significantly heavier. The new design will accommodate wider tires and withstand much more abuse.

1.) idk if people know but toronto is only 6 pts out of a playoff spot, not that bad of a team, and your going to lose gmaes to teams you should beat. called an upset, has happened plenty of times during the regular season.
2.) and stop hyping up the kaberle deal, as much as i would like it to happen it may not even happen. just wait and see what happens instead of getting all excited and then when chia might not make that move and then everyone bashes him. i think he knows what he needs and what he has to look at.
3.) the only thing i hate on here is how people make up their own rumors (nash? iginla?) and also get your head outa the sky, brad richards is not gunna come here, he could sign here but he isnt going to get traded to boston i dont think personally, would love to have him but i jus think its too much for the bruins to give up to get him.
so everyone calm down, even if they b's lose tonight there is no reason to panic. with the 6 game road trip coming up its going to prove were this team stands. if they come back under .500 then you can start thinking about to panic, but thats it. if you are a toronto fan then you are in a panic situation but not bruins.
so jus take a deep breath and enjoy the game tonight

May 26, 2016
DETROIT, MI (AP) - Chrysler is recalling more than 49,000 Dodge Charger muscle cars because a connector can overheat and knock out low-beam headlights.
The recall affects 2011 and 2012 Chargers equipped with halogen headlamps. Dealers will inspect and replace for free the headlight wiring, bulbs and assemblies if necessary.
Canadian safety regulators say the problem could compromise driver visibility and lead to a crash. But Chrysler says it knows of no crashes or injuries. The problem is similar to one that led to a 2012 recall of Charger police cars.
The new recall covers 43,450 Chargers in the U.S., 2,850 in Canada, 375 in Mexico and 2,700 outside North America. Customers with concerns can call Chrysler at (800) 853-1403.

and again, now do it again
Friday, February 01, 2013
Starting over fresh today on the 4HB diet. I kinda picked a good day and a bad day to do it. 1st of the month. then i can measure and weigh myself in one month or something like that. but, its friday and i normally do cheat day on sat. hmmmmm....
Jon is going to start eating right with me. he has the lucky advantage that his folks buy in bulk and are willing to get him a ton of groceries. me on the other hand, i buy my own. my parents laugh if i ask for something like that. yesterday i stocked up on food for this paycheck. salmon, lots of beans, i still have a ton of frozen veggies, but i forgot my eggs. lol. i still have half a tub of spinach (if ppl stop shoving it to the back of the fridge and freeze it) and blueberries for my shakes. i am doing fruit this time around however as a go to snack if i need to snack. and besides, you need fruit in your diet, i dont care what he says in his book. i dont like taking supplements, i would rather eat my vitamins.
a big challenge for me is drinking enough water. i just forget. not that i dont like water, i just space it out. so i think im going to fill up my water bottle and as soon as i wake up, start chugging some, get breakfast, drink the rest. at work, drink one with my coffee, drink one with lunch. if i go to the gym i will naturally drink more. but if not, drink another water bottles worth before bed.
going to try applying to some more jobs tonight. as much as i hate the thought of what working night shifts might do to my relationship with jon, he was all for it. we talked and he encouraged. so, maybe i will get the job at craig instead. idk. crazy world. im trying to just role with the punches now.
tonight i am going to try to make my first ever batch of home made hummus. i bought dried garbonzo idk how to spell that haha. i know its stupid simple. good for splurge snacking on with veggies of course. tonight im having salmon with my ideot lol lets see if it lets me keep that, ideot proof lentils. here, i know im not supposed to have anything coconut, but its SO simple and SO good. check it out here:
so, salmon, those, and prolly spinach salad. there was something else i was going to do and forgot...hmmm. oh well.

I really struggle with drinking water and winter doesn't help... In summer it's a bit easier and I have a system that works: I drink a glass of water before and after every meal. I eat 5 times so it's 10 glasses! Maybe it will work for you, too.

The Vendee is located on the Atlantic Coast in the Pays-de-la-Loire region of west central France and takes its name from the Vendee river. La Roche-sur-Yon is the regional capital. In 1804 Napoleon rebuilt the town and introduced a street layout that was regular and straight, quite unusual for France.
The coastline, which reaches more than 200 kilometres along the northern end of the Bay of Biscay, consists mostly of sandy beaches, many of which have been awarded blue flags for cleanliness. Les Sables d''Olonne, Saint Jean de-Monts and La Tranche-sur-Mer are among the popular resorts.
Les Sables d'Olonne was made popular by the aristocratic visitors that came here in the 19th century for the casinos and thermal baths. It also has a fine sandy beach, promenade and magnificent marina.
Saint Jean de Monts is perfect for families looking for a day out with the children, here there is the Plage des Demoiselles with its extensive sandy beach and the Atlantic Toboggan theme park. Attracting almost 1.5 million visitors a year, Puy du Fou, a historical theme park in the north of the departement, is one of Vendees most popular attractions.
Noirmoutier Island is linked to the mainland at low tide by three miles of cobbled road which is submerged twice a day by the sea, however there's also a handy bridge if you prefer. It's well worth visiting with 50 kilometres of beaches. It also has a long and interesting history going back to Roman times.
Inland Maillezais Cathedral is also worth a visit, and Vouvant has been named among France''s most beautiful villages. There are numerous other pretty churches, castles and villages in the departement.
Pine forests line many of the beaches, and these, together with the marked footpaths are ideal for hiking, cycling and other outdoor activities. There is a signposted cycling route along the coastal marshes and mudflats, where birdwatching is popular. Marais Potievin is an inland marshland famous for wildlife. Bocage''s rolling countryside, and the forests around Mervent village, provides further leisure opportunities for nature lovers. Fishing is popular on the lakes and rivers of the Vendee.
There are a number of small vineyards in the area; so why not try the Vendee''s most famous dish, Jambon-mogettes (ham with white beans) with a glass of local wine?
For accommodation see our collection of cottages in Vendee, and sample for yourself everything that Vendee has to offer.

Thanksgiving Wine Pairings from Local Experts
No feast is complete without a bottle (or ten) of the good stuff. We asked some of the top wine experts in the Bay Area and Napa for their pairing picks for your autumnal potluck. Our advice: better to overstock than not—you'll need some wine to go with those leftovers, after all.

It is the ultimate comfort food in a holiday made up of comfort foods. In order to help you prepare Thanksgiving's most important dish, we have five recipes from esteemed local chefs to make your holiday feast magical.

If you happen to be hosting Thanksgiving this year, or acting as MVP by bringing the turkey to a potluck bash, you may be hot on the hunt for the perfect bird. And for gourmands that want to opt for something organic, heritage-bred, or just more flavorful, local Bay Area butchers and markets have you covered.

Skip to comments.Caption Obama's high-speed Rail to FAIL
Posted on 04/16/2009 1:43:27 PM PDT by Lucky9teen
U.S. President Barack Obama arrives to make remarks on a proposed high-speed rail system in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building in Washington, April 16, 2009. President Obama outlined his plan for developing "long overdue" high-speed rail on Thursday that would rival air travel, create jobs and help curb the U.S. transportation system's appetite for oil.
U.S. President Barack Obama speaks to audience members after delivering remarks on a proposed high-speed rail system in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building in Washington, April 16, 2009.
Vice President Joe Biden reacts to the audience after making remarks, with President Barack Obama, on expanding the high speed rail system, Thursday, April 16, 2009, in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building on the White House campus in Washington.
Top right picture: "UNNGH! Monorail cat impacted my glutes!"
Biden is always looking clueless dude.
He'll make the trains run on time.
Joe's a little upset about where I just put this finger
Illinois corruption. The grift that just keeps on grifting.
I could while away the hours,
conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain.
And my head I'd be scratchin' while
my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.
My thoughts exactly! It's ridiculous!
These people are sub-moranic idiots. If a high speed train system were a good idea in the USA then a private company would have built at least one line somewhere that is profitable.
This boondoggle is only a federal job creation plan bankrolled by the huge increase in taxes. If Amtrak operates in the hole how in hell is this going to run at a profit?....Oh, that's right...It's your tax money so it doesn't have to be profitable.
Fail Rail goes national.
I guess he needed a way to get people to re-education camps quicker.
Oops. That map seems to indicate considerable imminent domain acquisitions. Comments?
It's simple... we tell Americans what they want to hear, and they believe it. This is the easiest job I've ever had.
"create jobs and help curb the U.S. transportation system's appetite for oil."......
Bullcrap!...This is just another money pit!
The girls have been trying to house train Bo on these recycled campaign maps. See, he's almost as smart as I am.
Monorail song from the Simpson's
So did the Fascists.
We suck...but we won.
>>"He'll make the trains run on time">>>
Didn't Hitler do that too?
Biden: "Hi, Huma!!!" < /Hillary plagiarism >
And we will call the hub of the new railroad Mayor Daley Station. We'll take the Big Dig's budget and supersize it Chicago-style.
I am still trying to figure out why they need a high-speed rail system inside of a federal office building.
Biden has to be the original for Jeff Dunham's puppet Walter. However, Walter is more in touch with reality and has more brain cells.
$8 billion is not even close to enough money to build a high-speed rail system of that magnitude. IIRC, it has been done in Europe for around $20 million a mile, so his $8 billion might give us a grand total of 400 miles of rail.
The look of irritable bowel syndrome.
Jeff Dunham: Dear Walter, can you recommend a good proctologist?
[Walter nudges towards Jeff]
It's like Mr. Roger's trolley to the land of make believe, where if you spend tens of trillions of dollars everything will work out just fine.
High speed rail, epic fail:
Why the hell should I have to go all around the country to go from Texas to Seattle? And why should I have to do it THROUGH Chi-town?
Well....8 billion will build about 24 miles of track. Not sure just how fast the train will go because you gotta have room to slow down, y'know.
I thought muslims didn't like Pork.
You beat me to it. Oh well.
Well, sir, there's nothing on earth
Like a genuine,
Bona fide,
What'd I say?
Ned Flanders: Monorail!
Lyle Lanley: What's it called?
Patty+Selma: Monorail!
Lyle Lanley: That's right! Monorail!
[crowd chants `Monorail' softly and rhythmically]
Miss Hoover: I hear those things are awfully loud...
Lyle Lanley: It glides as softly as a cloud.
Apu: Is there a chance the track could bend?
Lyle Lanley: Not on your life, my Hindu friend.
Barney: What about us brain-dead slobs?
Lyle Lanley: You'll be given cushy jobs.
Abe: Were you sent here by the devil?
Lyle Lanley: No, good sir, I'm on the level.
Wiggum: The ring came off my pudding can.
Lyle Lanley: Take my pen knife, my good man.
I swear it's Springfield's only choice...
Throw up your hands and raise your voice!
All: Monorail!
Lyle Lanley: What's it called?
All: Monorail!
Lyle Lanley: Once again...
All: Monorail!
Marge: But Main Street's still all cracked and broken...
Bart: Sorry, Mom, the mob has spoken!
All: Monorail!
[big finish]
Homer: Mono... D'oh!
The center of the universe has recently been relocated to Chi-town (it was another one of those executive orders). Therefore, all high speed rail systems must go through it...
Bullet Trains are very common in Japan, and span the entire country. When I rode on them once, they looked to me like they receive pretty good usage (the one I rode from Tokyo to Osaka was crowded). Yet, I still wonder if they are profitable - even there. I seem to recall a story on 60 Minutes, or some such, back in the 70's or 80's, that was about Japan's Bullet Trains. It talked about the corruption that was a part of their construction, and how much they still relied upon government subsidies. In one example they showed images of a bullet train station that was hardly being used, and was way out in the boonies somewhere. The reason for this station out in the middle of nowhere?? The politician whose district contained the station was very influential, so he was able to force them to build a station there. I suspect we will have similar, or worse, decisions made if this thing goes forward in the USA.
Does anyone out there know if Japan's Bullet Trains are profitable today?? I know they are expensive to ride, but I wonder if the Japanese government still has to subsidize them.
Any fool can see it is not the middle this nation and perhaps more development in lower population states might encourage more equitable population distribution.
Japan and France are much much smaller than the United States.
Traveling by rail is great if
1. you don't have 3 children with you
2. the restrooms are working
It'll take about 3 days to go to Seattle and the cost will be $20.00 less than flying.
This is from experience with Amtrak.
Before passing final judgment: Let's see transit times, a club car sketch and the bar menu for the LA-Vegas run.
So it'll be like taking Greyhound?
And no malcontent has interfered with the tracks.
And no engineer is busy texting when he should be doing his job.
SCARY. Bring it to the silliness thread tomorrow...

We spent 30 days camping at Hiles Pine Lake Campground. The owners are next to none! They are extremely pleasant, hospitable and helpful. We spent most every day fishing for bluegill and crappie (we even caught some bass and perch). The site was level with full hookups (even a portable sewer container so I could dump without moving my travel trailer). The restrooms and showers were clean. The campground was very quiet and well maintained. Would definitely stay there again! - RTW

How to Find a DUI Checkpoint
There can be nothing more annoying, in this world, than to be held up at a DUI checkpoint. Especially when you are running late for a meeting or are simply eager to rush home, these obstructions can be a mood-buster! So, the next pertinent question how do get rid of/find DUI checkpoints? There are some points you can use to find the DUI checkpoints in your area:
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Watch the news. Watching the news every morning and evening can help you know the DUI checkpoints. Law representatives are usually obliged to disclose the location of the checkpoints before the event and the news stations report them for the convenience of the commuters.
2Read the newspapers daily and especially the sections concerning your city or town. There may be sections in the local beat that are dedicated to DUI checkpoints or they could be present in some other sections. You can also look for them under other names such as either DWI Checkpoints or DWI Roadblocks.
3Look online. There are also numerous websites that exist solely to inform the public about DUI checkpoints such as the Road Block Registry. Such websites will give you notice of the sobriety roadblocks along with the intersection at which they will be conducted and the day and time.
4Call up your law local enforcement agency to find out when upcoming DUI checkpoints are scheduled. How much information they will gain is anybody's guess, but taking a precautionary step is always a sign of wisdom.
5Keep a look out for lots of flashing lights when you are driving between 9 pm and 2 am. This is usually the time officers set up DUI checkpoints as bars are open and people are usually in a mood to chill out after work.

The fans have spoken... to MTV anyway. A poll released last week asked which X-Men-related movie fans wanted to see next: X-Men Origins: Magneto, Wolverine 2, Deadpool, or X-Men: First Class. The results are in and the winner is (should be no surprise if you read the title of this piece): Deadpool, with 32% of the unspecified amount of votes!
Wolverine 2 came in second, with First Class and Magento finishing third and fourth, respectively. Ironically, X-Men Origins: Wolverine seems to set up First Class as the next movie, with Cyclops (Tim Pocock) meeting up with a group of young mutants at the end. Deadpool, a spin-off starring Ryan Reynolds, seems the more difficult movie to fit into continuity considering that Deadpool ends up in, well, not to give anything away, so let's just say...he has his head chopped off and falls down a nuclear silo. Hope that didn't spoil anything.
First Class has Josh Schwartz penning the script, while Magneto, with a script by David Goyer, may be directed by James McTeigue if given the greenlight.

Apply evenly morning and night to clean skin by massaging into face with finger tips until absorbed. For best results follow with Collagenesis Deep Wrinkle Protocol Crème Reverse or any other Skinn serums and treatment creams (sold separately).
Made in USA.
Please view the above Ingredients tab for ingredient information.
Why Cleanse?
When you cleanse your face, you can help control the clarity, suppleness and condition of your skin. Cleansing rids your skin of excess facial oil, dust, bacteria, dirt and dead skin cells. This process helps keep the pores unclogged, improves circulation, and prepares your skin for the next step in your cleansing ritual. Quite possibly the most fundamental step in the beauty routine, cleansing is integral to maintaining a balanced complexion.
Cleansing is recommended twice per day for most skin types, once in the morning and once in the evening. Any more than that, the natural oils become stripped, while any less and your skin can become susceptible to congestion and eruptions.
How to Choose a Cleanser
Choose a cleanser that is appropriate for your skin and is specifically formulated for the face. Dry skin types will need to use a creamy based cleanser, while oilier types will need a gel based or foaming type cleanser. Sensitive skin needs a fragrance-free formulation, most likely labeled as gentle and non-irritating.
How to Cleanse
Tie your hair back with a headband or ponytail holder. Make sure to start with clean hands. Splash your face with warm or tepid water to open up your pores. Never use too hot or too cold water. Too hot and your skin can dry out, while water that is too cold will not remove the surface oils sufficiently. You can use a washcloth, sponge, exfoliation puff, facial brush or your fingers for cleansing - It all depends on your preference.
Use approximately a dime to nickel sized amount of cleanser, follow product packaging instructions. You can apply the cleanser with your fingertips or washcloth. Depending on the cleanser type, you might want to work up a lather in your hands first.
Use gentle upward circular strokes moving around the face, paying attention to the crevices of the nose area and hair line while extending down your neck and around the ear area. Take extra care to use a gentle touch around the eyes. Do not over-scrub or scrub too hard, as your facial skin is susceptible to become easily irritated.
Once the cleansing is completed, rinse liberally with tepid water. Make sure all areas are rinsed including the neck, hairline and eye area. Cool water may be used, as it helps to close the pores. Finish by blotting your face gently with a towel using a patting technique.
Why Exfoliate?
Exfoliation is a very important yet often overlooked step in the beauty regimen. It is the key to loosen and remove a dead layer of skin cells, while speeding up the skin's process of shedding (which slows with aging or mature skin). Exfoliation also helps to stimulate the blood circulation, brighten the complexion by improving color and texture, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, and prevent build-up that can lead to break outs.
Without exfoliation, skin can take on an uneven tone, looking dull, patchy or even ashy. After exfoliation, skin serums and moisturizers are able to penetrate more effectively, allowing the active ingredients to penetrate more successfully and thus leading to better beauty product results.
As a general rule, you will want to exfoliate at least once per week. You can adjust your schedule according to your needs. The texture of the exfoliant may also factor in the frequency of usage. A finer grained exfoliator might be tolerated well and could be used more often if desired. If your skin becomes irritated or flaky, reduce the frequency of exfoliating or switch to one with finer texture.
Sometimes exfoliating ingredients are added to toners or also come in the form of masks. These products provide more options to incorporate exfoliating ingredients into your regimen.
How to Choose an Exfoliator
Choose an appropriate exfoliator for your skin type. Sensitive, fine or aging skin will need a finer abrasive ingredient than other types of skin. The best way to select one is to read the label description to determine the item's abrasiveness or strength. Salt, sugar, plant fiber, nut hulls, jojoba beads, apricot seeds, kernels, oatmeal, and bamboo beads are all common ingredients used in abrasive exfoliators.
Enzymes, retinols, alpha hydroxy acid, lactic acid, glycolic acid and salycilic acid preparations are referred to as chemical exfoliators. They are typically available in varying strengths in the form of a gel or serum. They can also be used once per week, or as desired after cleansing and before moisturizing to attain the same effect. They exfoliate with less irritation, and are especially recommended if your skin is on the sensitive side.
How to Exfoliate
After cleansing and rinsing the face, apply the exfoliator to your wet face. Using your fingers or a soft cloth, scrub using gentle circular motions. You will want to avoid the delicate eye area and scrub gently on the areas bordering it like the cheek bones and temple area outside of the eyes. Rinse your face and softly pat it dry.
