The Executive Office of Transportation is conducting a 21-day public comment period for the Environmental Assessment for the Knowledge Corridor – Restore Vermonter Project. Written comments will be accepted during this public review period beginning today through October 14, 2009.
EOT has submitted a competitive grant application under the High Speed and Intercity Passenger Rail Program to the Federal Railroad Administration to fund this project and today launched a new Vermonter project website. The Knowledge Corridor – Restore Vermonter Project to restore the Amtrak Vermonter to its original route is one of the initiatives included in the Vision for the New England High – Speed and Intercity Rail Network which was announced in July by the New England Governors.
Written comments may be sent to 10 Park Plaza, Room 4150 Boston, MA 02116. This document is also available online. For questions or additional information, please contact the Office of Transportation Planning, (617)-973-7313, TTY:(617)-973-7306 or e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Knowledge Corridor – Restore Vermonter Project will restore Amtrak's intercity passenger train service to its original route by relocating the Vermonter from the New England Central Railroad back to its former route on the Pan Am Southern Railroad. The Pan Am Southern route provides a shorter and more direct route for the Vermonter between Springfield and East Northfield, and improves access to densely populated areas along the Connecticut River. The Pan Am Southern route would include station stops at the former Amtrak station at Northampton and the new intermodal station at Greenfield. The routing of Amtrak service in Vermont and south of Springfield would remain unchanged.
The benefits of the Project include:
• Reduction in overall travel time for the Vermonter service of approximately 25 minutes.
• Improved on-time performance for the Vermonter Service
• Estimated 24% increase in ridership.
The Project would require improvements to the existing Pan Am Southern rail line, including crosstie replacement, rail replacement, rehabilitation of grade crossings, reactivation of passing sidings and portions of double track, upgrading of switches, improvements to signal and communications systems, surfacing and alignment of track, and improvements to bridges and station platforms. These improvements would facilitate the relocation of the Vermonter by improving safety, increasing operating speeds for existing freight train traffic and the Vermonter, and enhancing capacity on the rail line to accommodate future increased levels of train traffic. The improvements and rehabilitation work will be done within the existing railroad right of way.
The importance and value of this project was identified through a study sponsored by the Pioneer Valley Planning Commission (PVPC), in conjunction with the Executive Office of Transportation and Public Works (EOTPW). The preliminary findings of that study has determined that the expansion of intercity passenger rail service in the I-91 Knowledge Corridor, between White River Junction, VT and New Haven, CT, has the potential to be a major component in producing economic revitalization, spurring job creation, improving air quality, increasing overall mobility and reducing vehicular traffic congestion.

Tyrone Spong Already Up and Walking Featured
- Written by Dave Walsh
- font size decrease font size increase font size
Tyrone Spong is a crazy man. No, not in a bad way, but in the sense that he is just a tough dude. When Spong went down this weekend at GLORY 15 there was no screaming, no pained looks. Spong was stoic in the face of a possibly career-threatening injury. He handled it like a boss, it was incredible. Now it is Wednesday and Tyrone Spong has posted a video on Instagram of him up and walking.
Yes, he's a bit shaky and can't put his full weight on his leg just yet, but the man broke his shin on Saturday night and come Wednesday is walking without assistance. Crazy.

Felt the need to post a review due to the alarming nature of at least two of the others. I'm running Carabiner on an iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1.1 and it works just fine. Absolutely no problem.
For the record, I haven't tried the other two principal iPhone Basecamp apps, Lodge and Rappel, but from a price standpoint, I'm happy that Carabiner (by far the cheapest) works FINE.
NOTE: for the purposes of this product (and the other two) it's important to understand that these apps apply to the "new" Basecamp, not "Basecamp Classic."
Love It!
Easy to use. I have never experienced an issue with.

Feature: Searching for the true meaning of gay love
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
i am looking forward to the play,how can i wait untill that time.i am a gay and my profile is on gaysinglehunt.com where i look for gay partner
The play is not a comedy, despite many moments of humour: but it is certainly worth seeing.Unfortunately, the "unremittingly negative" remarks in this review are likely to deter many people: "unsparingly dark presentation", "shallow, self-serving characters paralysed by their own unhappy existences", "no message of hope", "tough going", "gay men are selfish, incapable of proper love, needy, doomed to unhappiness", "little to smile about".I saw the play last night with friends: despite the PinkNews review, and another negative one in the Evening Standard. We all enjoyed it: as, apparently, did the rest of the audience, judging by the applause at the end.As for the "shallow, self-serving characters paralysed by their own unhappy existences": even Mac realises that he doesn't really WANT to harm himself and others. By the end of the play we understand in most cases how the characters have been damaged by previous life events.The hope is that, having seen the play, we can examine our own lives, to find the courage to break unhelpful patterns, pursuing goals and developing relationships that are, conversely, deep and meaningful."Little to smile about"? Actually on the way home we were all laughing!

Freddie Gray's relatives arrived for the trial in the afternoon, after the prep-school kids had left. By their dress, they seemed to have just gotten off work in the medical and clerical fields. The family did not appear at ease in the courtroom. They winced and dropped their heads as William Porter and his fellow officer Zachary Novak testified to opening the doors of their police van last April and finding Freddie paralyzed, unresponsive, with mucus pooling at his mouth and nose. Four women and one man mournfully listened as the officers described needing to get gloves before they could touch him.
The first of six Baltimore police officers to be brought before the court for their treatment of Freddie Gray, a black twenty-five-year-old whose death in their custody was the immediate cause of the city's uprising last spring, William Porter is young, black, and on trial. Here in this courtroom, in this city, in this nation, race and the future seem so intertwined as to be the same thing.

~~~ Maja ~~~
Indeed it is peaceful, Maja, or was that morning. There was a flood in the Mary River but here at the mouth the flood merely appears as brown water, which is evident in the (Mary River) foreground left of the photo.
My ancestors sailed out of the mouth of the Elbe into the great unknown and 4 months later their boat brought them into this estuary and up the Mary River to Maryborough into the great land that they would come to know as the land of eternal summer, where there was no one to call their master, and where they were able to own their own land carve viable farms out of the dense rainforest scrubs....half a world away.
Definitely very well capture my dear Ian, thank you for the explanation.

Welcome to my gallery, Artem. Thanks for the compliment. Warm greetings from Brisbane,
It is a very nice photo. LIKE. Greetings from Poland. Bogdan
Thank you, Bogdan.
My Polish ancestors arrived in Australia by sea in 1866, and they were brought up this river (foreground) by boat to be landed at the frontier port of Maryborough. As they entered this river they passed this green island, and to their excitement and amazement there were quite a number of kangaroos grazing here. The roos would have propped themselves and watched the boat. Up river lay the great unknown that was to be their new homeland.
A very beautiful & amazing photo I like!!! it.well done great composed.with best wishes. Greeting from India.pradeep

LJWorld.com weblogs 'Hawks in the NBA
Taylor, Withey reunited in New Orleans
Look who is back together again.
Former Kansas standouts Jeff Withey and Tyshawn Taylor will be teammates once more — this time in the NBA, with New Orleans. So run out to the store and buy all the Pelicans gear you can. (Actually, not sure which would be more difficult: finding Pelicans attire or not being ridiculed for wearing Pelicans attire.)
And what better place to reunite than New Orleans, the site of the 2012 Final Four? After all, Taylor and Withey helped Kansas beat Ohio State in the national semifinals in the very city they will both now call home.
The trade that sent Taylor away from Brooklyn (and another former Jayhawk, Paul Pierce) became official Tuesday morning. As reported by John Reid of NOLA.com, the Nets dealt Taylor for cash and the draft rights to Edin Bavcic.
New Orleans acquired Taylor to for some much-needed backcourt flexibility, Reid wrote:
The Pelicans likely made the move to add depth in the backcourt because starting point guard Jrue Holiday is sidelined indefinitely with a fractured tibia.
Taylor's only averaging 3.9 points and 1.6 assists in 11.7 minutes a game this season, so it will be interesting to see whether Pelicans coach Monty Williams makes him a small part of the rotation or if Taylor will take on the same role he had in Brooklyn.
That remains to be seen, and the move definitely makes it seem like New Orleans might like Taylor, because the franchise had other options, as pointed out by NOLA.com's Nakia Hogan:
Instead of calling up NBA D-League leading scorer Pierre Jackson, whom the Pelicans hold the rights to, or standing pat with young guards Austin Rivers and Brian Roberts, the Pelicans looked to Taylor.
Whatever happens, it's safe to assume Taylor will spend more time on the floor than his old buddy, Withey, who is averaging 6.0 minutes a game.
Hinrich prefers Windy City
A little while back, trade winds started swirling and whispering the name of Chicago Bulls guard Kirk Hinrich, with hints floating around that he could be dealt to Golden State.
If the 11th-year NBA veteran could call the shots, though, he would at least stick with the Bulls for the remainder of the season, before his contract expires.
The one-time Jayhawk, who teamed with Oklahoma City's Nick Collison to lead Kansas to back-to-back Final Fours in 2002 and 2003, told the Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson he wants to keep playing as long as he can be effective, and right now he'd prefer that happen in a Bulls uniform.
"I'm happy here," Hinrich said. "I came back here because I wanted to be here. I still like our team. I get along great with the guys. We've been playing well lately so I just want to keep that going."
A trade to Golden State for Hinrich very well might be dead. The Warriors addressed their need for point guard help by acquiring Jordan Crawford from Boston. None of the talk gets to Hinrich, though.
"It's out of your control so you just keep going and trying to take care of business and focus on what we're doing here," he said. "It's not the first time my name has been in trade rumors. It's something I'm kind of used to and don't read too much into them."
In some possible bad news for Hinrich, he suffered a hamstring injury in Chicago's Monday night win over the Lakers.
Good time for a vacation
The Brooklyn Nets went on holiday to London last week for an NBA excursion against Atlanta, and amid the sight-seeing and exploring Paul Pierce scored 18 points in a 127-110 Nets victory.
Here is Pierce discussing the trip and the importance of winning this showcase game:
Seems like he enjoyed the trip, though it took some adjusting:
Brooklyn, which got off to a dreadful start this season, despite acquiring Pierce and Kevin Garnett (and Jason Terry, if you want to count him) from the Celtics in an off-season mega-deal, has won seven of its last eight games to climb into the No. 7 spot in the putrid Eastern Conference.
Even with a dud of a 1-for-4, three-point night Monday in the Nets' win against New York, Pierce is averaging 14.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.5 assists in the Nets' last eight games, as Brooklyn appears to finally be living up to its expectations.

The subject invention is directed toward the valve art and, more particularly, to a poppet-type excess flow valve.
Excess flow valves are typically used in flow systems to shut off the flow of process or system fluid whenever it exceeds a predetermined level. For example, rupture of a downstream line, or other failure of a downstream component, could result in release of large amounts of fluid. Depending on the type of fluid involved, the results could be catastrophic.
A satisfactory valve of the general type under consideration should be entirely automatic in operation and require no form of external activation. Preferably, the valve should be totally passive during proper system functioning and allow normal flow therethrough in the manner of a fixed orifice. The flow rate of the valves at the trip point should be distinctly defined and repeatable. At all flow rates up to the trip point, the valves should be stable with no flutter or chatter. In addition, the valves must, of course, be highly reliable and basically maintenance free. Moreover, they should preferably create a minimal restriction to flow during normal flow conditions.
A valve of this kind normally remains in a static condition, never moves, is never exercised, and, if all goes well, never has to trip. Therefore, in many systems such as petroleum or chemical plants, it could easily become clogged by solids, contaminants, tars, waxes, and other materials such systems typically deposit on piping walls. If the holes in the poppet gradually built up a deposit layer and became smaller, they would eventually make it trip a flow rate less than the original design value and result in false trips and the attendant maintenance costs.
While many different valves are currently in use for excess flow control, almost none can satisfactorily meet all the noted criteria in a simple and effective manner. For example, most common excess flow valves are not inherently stable because they function similarly to a simple check valve. To explain, in these known excess flow valves, the flow passes around a poppet or ball and creates a pressure drop. As the flow increases, the poppet gradually compresses a spring and moves toward a seat. At flow rates between open and close stops, the poppet is supported only by the spring and invariably chatters. The flow rate at which the poppet reaches the closed stop can vary widely and thus does not have a distinct, repeatable value.
The subject invention provides a poppet-type excess flow valve which satisfies the above criteria and which can be used in a variety of fluid systems either liquid or gas. Valves formed in accordance with the invention have a very definite and repeatable trip point with the poppet moving rapidly between the open and closed stops without chatter. In particular, a poppet-type excess flow valve according to the invention generally includes a body which forms a valve chamber having a first end defining an inlet port and a second end defining an outlet port. The valve chamber has a first portion of a first diameter adjacent the first end and a second portion of a second smaller diameter adjacent the second end. Between the first and second portions of the valve chamber is a circumferentially extending valve seat. Positioned in the valve chamber is a poppet element which includes a first section in the form of a hollow cylindrical body that extends into the second portion of the valve chamber and terminates therein in an open end. The outer diameter of the hollow cylindrical body section is only slightly less than the diameter of the second portion of the valve chamber such that it has guided sliding movement therein. The poppet element further includes a second section located in the first portion of the valve chamber and joined to the first section. Included in the second section of the poppet is an end wall that carries a circumferentially continuous valving surface that extends radially outward to a diameter greater than the diameter of the second portion of the valve chamber for cooperation with the valve seat. A compression coil spring is closely received in the hollow first section of the poppet element and extends out of the open end into engagement with the valve body about the outlet port. The compression coil spring is arranged for maintaining the poppet element continually biased under a predetermined force toward the inlet port with the valving surface spaced from the valve seat. Flow passages are formed through the hollow cylindrical body portion of the poppet element at a location closely adjacent the valving surface of the second section. The size of the flow passages is related to the predetermined force of the coil spring to permit a predetermined maximum flow through the flow passages after which the force of the coil spring is overcome and the valving surface moves rapidly into engagement with the valve seat to block flow through the valve.
Preferably, and in accordance with a more limited aspect of the invention, the valving surface is defined by a radial shoulder that defines the junction between the first and second portions of the valve chamber and has a conical configuration. In addition, the flow passages are preferably rectangular slots which extend circumferentially of the hollow cylindrical body at a location closely adjacent the valving surface. Also, the coil spring is preferably arranged to engage an internal circumferential Ledge within the hollow cylindrical portion at a location intermediate the flow passages and the open end. Thus, flow through the valve passes through the flow passages and centrally of the coil spring.
In its preferred form, the valve body is formed of two threadedly connected sections which respectively define the first and second sections of the valve chamber with the end of one of the sections defining the valve seat.
Because of the relationship between the coil spring, the poppet element, and the smaller diameter section of the valve chamber, a smooth guiding action is achieved and there is no possibility of binding or cocking of the valve element during its movement to the closed position. Additionally, during normal flow through the valve, the fluid dynamic forces acting on the poppet are significantly less than the opposing force of the spring making the valve stable. However, the slots or holes in the poppet are preferably designed to be smaller than the upstream flow areas. This concentrates most of the pressure drop at the slots. The pressure drop through the slots acts on the diameter of the poppet. The force acting against the spring is thus the pressure drop times the area of the poppet diameter. Because the slots are adjacent to the seating surface, any movement of the poppet reduces the slot area to produce an increase in pressure drop and rapid closing movement of the poppet. More importantly, however, there is produced a sharp, distinct, repeatable trip point flow rate.
As can be seen from the foregoing, a primary object of the invention is the provision of a poppet-type excess flow valve wherein there is a distinct, repeatable trip point and in which the poppet element moves to its closed position with a snap action and is guided in the movement by the cooperation of the compression spring and the valve chamber.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a flow control valve of the type described which is simple in construction and highly reliable in operation.
Another object is the provision of an excess flow control valve which can be arranged to close at a variety of different flow rates.
Yet another object is the provision of a valve of the type described that is extremely stable and not prone to chatter.
The above and other objects and advantages will become apparent from the following description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view through an excess flow valve formed in accordance with the invention;
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the poppet element; and,
FIG. 3 is a partial cross-sectional view showing the poppet element in the closed position resulting from excess flow conditions.
Referring more particularly to the drawings wherein the showings are for the purpose of illustrating a preferred embodiment of the invention only and not for the purpose of limiting same, FIG. 1 shows the overall arrangement of the excess flow valve 10 as comprising a body 12 formed of a first component 14 and a second component 16. The two body components 14 and 16 are formed from any suitable material, preferably a metal such as stainless steel. Body component 14 is shown as including an inlet port 18 and an internal counterbore 20 which defines a first large diameter section of an internal valve chamber 22. The body component 16 is, as seen, threadedly connected to body component 14 by external threads 24 that mate with internal threads 26 formed within the counterbore 20 as shown.
Body component 16 defines an outlet port 28 and an axially aligned internal counterbore 30 that cooperates with the counterbore 20 of component 14 to define the generally cylindrical internal valve chamber 22. As shown, the counterbore section 30 is of smaller diameter than counterbore section 20 and terminates in a flat end wall 32 which surrounds the outlet port 28. Component 16, like component 14, can be formed of any suitable material, preferably a metal such as stainless steel.
Positioned between the components 14 and 16 to provide a suitable fluid seal is a circumferentially extending O-ring 36 and a relatively rigid backup ring The particular material used to form the O-ring and the backup ring is not of importance to the invention and the O-ring could be any suitable elastomer having the necessary characteristics desired depending upon the fluid to be handled by the valve. Although not shown, it should be understood also that the body components 14 and 16 can be provided on their exterior with suitable tool receiving surfaces, such as wrench flats, to allow ready assembly and disassembly of the two components. It should also be understood that although the ends of the body sections 14 and 16 which surround the inlet and outlet ports 18 and are shown as having external threads and a camming mouth for receiving well known types of ferrule fittings for connecting the valve to the system tubing or piping, it could be provided with any known type of end fittings or connection and these form no part of the invention.
As can be seen, the inlet port 18, the outlet port 28, and the valve chamber 22 are in axial alignment. Positioned within the valve chamber is the uniquely arranged poppet element 40 which is also shown in greater detail in FIG. 2. As illustrated, the poppet element 40 has a generally cylindrical overall configuration and includes a first section 42 in the form of a hollow cylindrical body which is sized so as to be closely but slidably receivable in the counterbore 30 which defines the second section of the valve chamber 22. The section 42 has a relatively thin wall throughout most of its axial extent. The thin walled portion terminates in a somewhat thicker walled portion and defines an internal ledge 44. The poppet further includes a second section which generally comprises a transversely extending end wall 46 that extends radially outward from the center axis a distance beyond the radial extent of the counterbore 30. The transition between the larger diameter end wall 46 and the hollow cylindrical sleeve-like body portion 42 has a truncated conical configuration and defines a circumferentially continuous valving surface 48. Also, associated with the end wall 46 are a plurality of spacer legs 50 that extend axially outward from the end wall and are sized and located such that they can engage the end wall of counterbore 20 about the inlet port 18.
Flow passages in the form of generally rectangular slots 52 are formed through the cylindrical body portion 42 at a location closely adjacent the valving surface 48. The size and arrangement of the slots 52 will subsequently be described.
In normal flow conditions, the poppet valve element 40 is biased to the position shown in FIG. 1 by a cylindrical coil spring 54. As illustrated, the coil spring 54 has a maximum outer diameter which is only slightly less than the internal diameter of the end portion of the thin walled section of the cylindrical body portion 42. The left-hand end (as viewed in FIG. 1) of the spring 54 bears against the internal circumferential ledge 44. The opposite end of spring 54 has the final coil formed with a diameter substantially as large as the diameter of the counterbore 30 in body component 16. This maintains the poppet element 40 continually biased to the location shown in FIG. 1 during normal flow conditions. Flow can normally take place through the valve and around the poppet between the legs 50 and through the slots 52 and centrally through the spring 54 to the outlet 28. The flow areas across the face of end wall 46 of the poppet past the legs 50 and through the annular area about the poppet end are all equal to or generally greater than the flow area of the inlet passage and the outlet passage. Therefore, the pressure drop around the poppet is low and creates a force on the poppet that is small compared to the spring force. This assures that the poppet is static and does not move and cannot chatter up to the trip point. The pressure drop across the poppet slots acts on the diameter area of the poppet to trip the valve. This diameter is larger than the flow areas since it surrounds the spring, the inside of which is at least the diameter of the flow area. Thus, the pressure drop across the slots can be small and can still overcome the spring force by acting on a large area. Therefore, the valve causes a minimal restriction to normal flow up to the trip point.
The design of the valve poppet and the internal arrangement of the valve is such that the largest restriction to flow is at the flow openings defined by the slots 52. This means that the fluid volume in front of or at the left entrance end of the poppet and in the annular area between the poppet and the counterbore 20 will be under a higher pressure than the fluid within the poppet section 42. Consequently, a resultant force acts primarily against the poppet nose or the left-hand side of the end wall 46 that is parallel to the valve axis. During normal flow through the valve, this resultant force is significantly over-balanced by the opposing force of the spring. However, as flow through the valve increases above a predetermined maximum, the fluid force acting against the nose of the poppet becomes sufficient to overcome the compression force of the spring causing the poppet element to move to the right. As the poppet moves to the right, the slots 52 begin to move under the end of the counterbore 30. Because the flow opening or slots are positioned immediately adjacent to the valving surface and the corresponding valve seat defined by the end of body component 16, the effective orifice size of the slots 52 decreases causing an increased pressure drop across the slots. This produces a self-energizing, rapid closing movement of the poppet much in the nature of a snap action. The poppet seal surface 48 seats against the seat area and reduces flow to substantially zero. However, because there are no elastomers in the seat or the sealing surface, a positive total shutoff is not made and a small leakage flow occurs between the poppet and the body component 16. This allows the valve to reset without a flow bypass or manual override. Closure of either an upstream or downstream control valve allows the upstream pressure in the valve to slowly equalize with the downstream pressure. Once the pressure drops enough so that spring force cannot be overcome, the poppet is forced open and the valve is reset. To assure a predetermined small flow through the valve, a laser etched groove or slot is also formed in the seat or the poppet valving area to assure that a minor reset flow can take place even when the valve is in the closed position. Additionally, however, an opening of predetermined size could be placed through the end wall to produce a desired minimum flow or increase the speed of reset.
It should, of course, be understood that sizing of the spring relative to the flow area depends upon the pressures and maximum fluid flow permissible in a particular system. Industry practice dictates that such a limit is based on limiting the velocity of fluid through the system tubing and the internal size of the tubing. Each size of the excess flow valve is intended to trip near these limits with further modification of the valve's trip point made possible by varying the spring force. Further modification of the trip point is possible by regulating the flow hole size. Such variations can be readily determined by those skilled in the art to achieve a desired trip point.
As can be seen from the foregoing, the relationship between the poppet element, the valve body components, and the spring is such as to assure smooth guiding movement of the poppet between the normally open and the tripped or closed position.
The invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiment. Obviously, modifications and alterations will occur to others upon a reading and understanding of this specification. It is intended to include all such modifications and alterations insofar as they come within the scope of the appended claims or the equivalents thereof.
