Hello and welcome to today's Aerospace Team Online chat with Kelly McEntire
from NASA Lewis Research Center. Kelly is involved in jet engine engine
research. He manages a group of 12 engineers that turn the ideas of the
groups' lab rocket scientists, also known as aeropropulsion researchers,
into reality. All members of the team are involved in mechanical engineering
and, as Kelly explains, the job of an engineer is to turn the ideas of
today into the realities of tomorrow.
[ Oran/NASAChatHost
- 19 - 10:06:56 ]
And now, here is Kelly McEntire to answer your questions.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 26 - 10:11:15 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
How are you making jet engines more powerful and fuel efficient?
The thrust in today's research is not to make them more powerful, we already
know who to do that. It is to make them quieter, faster, less polution,
and of course more fuel efficient. There are many ways that are being
looked at to make engine more fuel efficient. I am a mechanical engineer,
a chemical engineer could better answer that questions. Some ways that
I am aware of are to make them burn hotter and to improve the way fuel
is injected into the engine.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 29 - 10:13:21 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
What new alloys make jet engines lighter?
We are trying many different kinds of materials which include aluminum
alloys and graphics composite materials. We must use alloys that have
a high heat tolerance so they won't melt when the fuel burns. Higher temperature
usually means more efficient enginers.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 30 - 10:14:25 ]
RE: [Christina-MMrs.Choate/ViennaGrade] In
the future, if you wanted to travel in space for a year, how much do you
think it would cost?
I think we will be able to buy a ticket to space in another 10 years.
It will still cost a lot. Maybe $5000 for a 1 hour ride up into space.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 31 - 10:16:55 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
Have you had any problems with space engine designs?
The biggest problem with space engine design is that you have to carry
oxygen with you. Oxygen is heavy. The atmosphere up to a certain point
has lots of oxygen already present, so we are trying to come up with an
engine that will burn the oxygen from the air when its present so you
don't have to carry the extra weight and once you get up so high there
is not enough oxygen to help burn the fuel, it then uses it own that is
carried on board.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 33 - 10:18:35 ]
RE: [Katie-MMrs.Choate/ViennaGrade] Over 20
years from now, what kind of clothes do you think we will wear in outerspace?
We will probably still wear the same types of spacesuits. If you are floating
outside a rocketship, you'll need lots of protection. If you are inside
like in the International Space Station, almost any cloths will do.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 35 - 10:20:27 ]
RE: [Asley-MMrs.Choate/ViennaGrade] At about
the time you retire, what kind of food do you think we will eat in outerspace?
It is hard to predict the future. We will always need the basics like
milk, grains and vegetables. Hopefully the food engineers will be able
to come up with food that is not dried out like what astronauts eat today.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 37 - 10:24:43 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
Are you using any new types of fuel for spaceships?
No, the basic fuels are still hydrogen and oxygen. A rocket engine burns
about twice as much hydrogen as oxygen and so it takes much larger tanks
to carry it. Hydrogen is also a gas so it has to be compressed or it would
take up way too much room. The more we compress it the less room it takes
up. We are trying to come up with ways to compress it more or as we call
it to densify it. This will allow us to go further with the same size
rocket ship.

RE: [kACEY-MMrs.Choate/ViennaGrade] MMrs.Choate/ViennaGrade
In about 20 years from now, which planets do you think we could visit?
I think we will visit Mars within the next 20 years. Today, we are trying
to figure out how to send a rocket there. The problem is not can we do
it? The problem is will the american taxpayers pay the 100's of billions
of dollars it would take to get there?
[ Oran/NASAChatHost

[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 45 - 10:32:02 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
How does computer technology aided in the design of the jet engine?
Yes, we use computer aided design or CAD as we call it all the time. We
use software packages call solid modelers that we design the engine with.
We are able to see the engine in its entirety before we even build the
first part. This helps us to avoid errors and helps us get it right the
first time.
[ Oran/NASAChatHost
- 46 - 10:33:11 ]
We would like to remind you to share your thoughts about today's chat
with us, at http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/qchats/qchat-surveys.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 48 - 10:34:22 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
How high can a plane with a jet engine fly?
I do now know for sure, but I think the upper reaches of the atmosphere
where there is not enough oxygen to help burn fuel is at about 100,000
feet or about 20 miles. Specials engines can burn at higher altitudes.
The oxygen gets thinner and thinner.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 53 - 10:36:51 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
What are the frequent modes of failure in the jet engines?
The failure mode that we are most concerned with is a blade in the rotor
breaking off. These blades are spinning about about 15,000 revolutions
per minutes or 15 Krpm. If ones breaks off, the centrifugal energy will
propel it like a bullet. It can fly through into the cabin of the aircraft
and kill someone or bring the whole aircraft down.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 57 - 10:41:09 ]
RE: [Dean-Mr.Richard/homeschool] What current
project are you involved in?
As a supervisor of a group of engineers, we work on many different projects.
Each 1 or 2 engineers are working different projects. One of these projects
is called High Speed Research or HSR. We are tyring to develop an engine
for the next generation Concord, except this time this aircraft would
be used by everyone flying from LA to Tokyo or from New York to Toyko,
etc. It would fly at 15000 mph. Another project is one to figure out why
jet engines are so noisy. Believe it or not, we don't understand where
all the noice comes from. If you have ever been at the end of a runway
and heard a jet plane taking off you know how loud it is. Many airports
around the world are making laws so planes can't make so much noise are
certain times of the day, i.e. when people are trying to go to sleep.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 60 - 10:43:14 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
What are the ups and downs with working with jet engines?
Ha, ha. Mostly things are up. The downs are when you learn that Congress
doesn't think building a next generation Concord is important enough to
give money to it like they just did. The HSR project is being cut way
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 61 - 10:44:36 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
How long do jet engines last?
Jet engines last many years. Engines can be repaird just like a car engine
to make them last longer. Parts that wear out are replace.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 62 - 10:46:21 ]
RE: [Dean-Mr.Richard/homeschool] What kind
of plane/plane engine has benifited man the most?
I think type of plane that has benefitted man the most is the passenger
jet. It given all of us the ability to travel virtually anywhere on earth
whenever we want to.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 63 - 10:47:55 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
Are there any plans to make any new designs in space vehicles?
Oh yes. The space shuttle is way too expensive to use. We need much cheaper
way to get to space, to get satellites up in space, etc. We are working
on seveal new rocketships to do this.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 65 - 10:48:59 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
Who designed the stardust mission?
I don't know anything about the stardust mission. It sounds like something
the Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasedena, California might do.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 66 - 10:50:00 ]
RE: [Dean-Mr.Richard/homeschool] Can planes
that use rotors like, say, the Osprey can they go hiegher due to the less
oxygen needed?
I am now familar with the Osprey, so I don't know.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 68 - 10:51:25 ]
RE: [KellyMcEntire/LeRC] I am now familar with the Osprey,
so I don't know.
That should have come out, I am not familiar with the Osprey.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 70 - 10:54:31 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
What could be challenging in the international space station?
A big challenge will be for the astronauts to stay physically fit when
they are up there for many months. In a weightless environment, your muscles
don't have to do anything. It is almost like lying in bed for several
months. Another challenge will be to get it assembled since it is a very
complex beast. There are bound to be unforseen problems that will have
to be overcome. When something go wrong in space, you can't run to the
hardware store to get something to fix it.
[ KellyMcEntire/LeRC
- 71 - 10:57:01 ]
RE: [MsMetcalf/Yokayoschool-Ms.Metcalf/Yokayo]
What advice could you give to young people about a career in science?
Don't let science or math scare you. It is fun. Science describes everything
around you. We take for granted the many things that surround us, but
all many made objects are there because someone was interested in science.
Things that occur naturally can be desribed with science.

When an apple fell on the head of Sir Issac Newton, he figured out a way
using math to desribe its fall. This was Calculus. Calculus is not something
scarey, but something cool, because it describes nature.

It's a story that's becoming all too familiar: An employee has a flash drive with sensitive, unencrypted information. Without giving it much thought, he leaves it in a fairly secure location, such as his locked car. A thief comes and steals the device. Now his organization faces a data breach, with thousands of customers' personal information in the hands of a criminal. Regardless of whether the theft was driven by a desire to acquire identity information or simply a quick grab for a piece of technology, the company must deal with the consequences. Legal fees, PR hassles, eroded trust and lost clientele are just a few examples of the long-term impact a simple theft can cause - especially in the absence of secure file sharing practices.
Such was the case in California, where Palomar Health recently experienced a data breach when an encrypted laptop along with two unencrypted flash drives were taken from a staff member's car. The devices exposed the personal health information of 5,000 patients from the Palomar Medical Center in Escondido and Pomerado Hospital in Poway. According to U-T San Diego, the health care organization's spokeswoman Bobette Brown explained that the compromised personal data included medical diagnoses, names, dates of birth, insurance and treatment information.
Although no cases involving suspicious use of the personal information had been reported at the time the news article was written, the medical organization needed to inform patients, allocate resources to understanding and containing the breach, as well as offer credit monitoring to affected individuals.
Sensitive information must be protected
In addition to the financial impact that data breaches can carry for businesses, failures in information security can have detrimental effects on the people whose details they expose, making data protection a key responsibility and matter of trust for organizations. Medical information in particular has great potential to be exploited in sinister ways. While much of the focus is usually on the threat of identity theft, Gigaom posited that health data could be used to wage biological crimes, such as targeting patients with particular conditions or tampering with the medical devices that individuals need to stay healthy. Further, medical information could be leaked to potential employers or the press, resulting in unfair discrimination or reputation damage, the source added.
Therefore, maintaining secure file sharing practices to reduce the opportunities for data to fall into the wrong hands is an ethical responsibility in addition to a good business strategy. In the Palomar Health case, the employee who had the flash drives and laptop had taken them home to continue working. In today's professional landscape, many staff members use their personal devices for business purposes, since workloads often require off-hours activity and employees want the flexibility and convenience that come with using mobile devices. Therefore, organizations should seek ways to facilitate remote working practices without making company resources vulnerable to theft or loss.
With the right services and programs in place, enterprises can provide their workers with access to corporate information, even sensitive data, without leaving it unprotected on portable devices. For example, wide area file services (WAFS) enable employees to connect to resources without removing them from the secure environment.

WARREN -The launch of the Lordstown-built Cruze is being carefully watched by everyone from General Motors Corp. executives to the owners of small mom and pop stores, all hoping the car maker has built a vehicle that will be an international best seller.
It is a tall order.
GM has never built a small car that made money. Its previous small cars usually lost between $850 and $1,000 per vehicle, according to Sean McAlinden, vice president of the Center for Automotive Research. The cars traditionally have been beaten in the marketplace by the Honda Civics and the Toyota Corollas of the the world.
The car company, its union and even some industry experts are saying the Cruze finally may be that small GM-made car that competes and wins in the market.
The new model will begin rolling off the line this week as GM workers return to the plant Monday following their routine two-week summer hiatus.
McAlinden says the investment that GM has put into the Cruze and the promise that some models will provide a family of four a drive of up to 400 miles on a 10-gallon tank makes it a promising vehicle.
''Its last small vehicle, the Cobalt, was not rated a success,'' McAlinden said. ''However, the Cruze's larger size, better designed interior and Echotech option that will provide a 40 mph drive will make it an attractive car to purchase.''
McAlinden said none of its competitors - the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla or Ford Focus - will be able to make the same mileage claim.
''The hope is the Cruze will be able to sell more than 200,000 units a year worldwide,'' McAlinden said. ''It is rare that an American small car sells that well. Usually, they sell between 150,000 to 170,000 units per year.''
The Cruze already is selling well in China, he said.
''It is hoped the Cruze will be a global car,'' McAlinden said. ''Lordstown has a car it can be proud of. We hope GM will have a smooth launch. The original launch of the Cavalier was considered too slow.''
United Auto Workers Local 1112 President Jim Graham is confident they will succeed.
''We're looking for a flawless launch,'' Graham said. ''There were mistakes in the past. We've learned from them. There was more and a wider variety of training for this car that had gone into any previous model built in Lordstown. We are doing everything very slow and methodical. We want the car to be right when it goes out the door.''
The majority of the first 300 cars to be built in the plant this month will be sent to Detroit for inspection and further testing, Graham said.
The complex will produce 3,000 new vehicles in August, and in September the plant should be in full production, allowing for the production of 60 cars per hour, he said.
Extensive training on the making of the Cruze has been taking place over the last two to three months. There also has been changes in how the cars will be produced in the plant.
An example is moving the body shop from the assembly plant to the fabrication plant to create a better production flow.
By the time the Lordstown complex is fully operational, it will have approximately 5,000 people working on it.
There will be will be 3,200 people in the car plant, Graham said.
''It's the lowest number of people we've had working on the complex while having three full shifts,'' Graham said. ''We are focused on building the best quality car in the world.''
Dave Green, president of UAW Local 1714, said there is an emphasis on quality that has been put on this car from the highest level of the corporation through every person working in the Lordstown complex.
When the union members return Monday from their two-week break, Green said a lot of the workers will be working with different teams and in different work areas. The culture will change.
In spite of the numerous changes happen in the complex, Green said he expects enthusiasm to be high as the workers return to the plant.
''People recognize the importance of this car to the corporation," he said. "GM has been investing a lot of money and energy into the Cruze."
Even with the lower number of employees, GM's Lordstown plant still is one of the top employers in the Mahoning Valley region, said Tony Paglia, head of Government Affairs for Youngstown-Warren Regional Chamber said.
''A 2008 study done by Team NEO indicated that the complex, combined with all of the other businesses that have dealings with it, generates about $4.3 billion to the area's economy annually," Paglia said.
For every worker employed at GM, another 1.5 jobs are sustained in various business-to-business and consumer industries, according to the study.
Local governments will realize about $9.5 million in wage taxes.
The Youngstown-Warren region benefits from the $1.4 billion contribution to the gross regional product, which is used as a measure of economic wealth in the region.
It was that financial impact that convinced residents, community leaders, social leaders, the unions and GM executives to work together in the "Bring it Home" campaign nearly a decade ago.
"That period when we nearly lost the complex has since paid big dividends," Paglia said.
"There has been a change in attitude, especially in management and labor relations. That likely helped the Lordstown plant land the Cruze.
"Credit has to be given to the local UAW leadership and the management for looking beyond their self interests and to what was best to save jobs," he said. "That has not happened all over the country."
Paglia suggests GM's and the UAW's success in working together has shown that labor in this area is realistic in wanting to keep employers here.
"It shows this area is a good place for productivity," he said. "That may influence other companies to look favorably when deciding to locate or relocate into the valley."
Lordstown Mayor Michael Chaffee is optimistic the new car will be a success.
He has to be hopeful. About 70 percent of the village's income taxes come from plant or its associated businesses.
Over the last several years, the village's finances have been tight. It has not had money to do infrastructure improvements.
"Once the plant once again has three full shifts, we may begin looking at dedicating more money to capital improvements," Chaffee said. "We want to get back (in capital improvement support) to where we had been in the past. We want to have a schedule of improvements, especially to our roads and services."
Lordstown has a 1 percent income tax on people working within the village limits.
Although concerned that there will be fewer workers - with some earning less money than former employees at the plant - Chaffee said the village was able to maintain most services during the years of one and two shifts at the plant.
The village places a lot of emphasis on its roads, because they are heavily used by GM, its suppliers and associated businesses.
"Beyond the direct financial benefits we receive from a successful operation at the GM complex, we also believe it gives the area a psychological boost," Chaffee said.
"People will feel more positive about their opportunities, their communities and will do home improvements or purchase items they otherwise would not have."

Matcha Green Tea Macarons
I love french macarons. The shell is so delicate, yet has a surprising chewy texture. It's one of my favorite desserts. I finally successfully made some a while back. And then I never got around to making them again. Once you start, it's not that hard to put together. But when recipes require preparation ahead of time, I always drag my feet.
So I finally made myself make some matcha macarons. I love the light green color. I paired them with some sakura blossoms. Full disclosure: the flowers are fake. I loke sakura/cherry blossoms. Near my parent's house, there is a park full of cherry blossoms and I used to get to see them bloom every year. I miss having cherry blossoms around.
I found these imitation ones while I was at Marukai Value (formerly Daiso), and thought they'd add a nice touch.
For the macaron shells, I used this recipe. For the filling, I piped a bittersweet chocolate ganache.
Chocolate ganache filling
4 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
1. Heat heavy cream in a small pot. Once it begins to boil, remove from the stove.
2. Pour heavy cream into bowl of chopped chocolate. Stir and mix until chocolate is completely melted.
3. Let ganache cool before putting it in a piping bag to pipe onto macaron shells.

I just made matcha macarons too! They're my favorite flavor… but I LOVE anything with matcha in it.
Oh man – I always love your matcha-anything dishes.
The recipe seems really difficult thou I'm horrible at converting grams.
Did you do another macaron recipe of your own awhile back?
Your macs look beautiful – nice job!
Oh wow, these macarons look absolutely delicious! What brand of matcha powder did you use to bake this? I could never get mine to be as vibrantly green as yours!

New Jersey's Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights, which we at Garden State Equality conceived and led the statewide campaign to enact in 2011, institutes a Week of Respect during the first week of October in public schools across New Jersey. This year, Week of Respect is Monday, October 1 through Friday, October 5. The law, ranked by the U.S. Department of Education as the nation's strongest anti-bullying law, provides that schools do anti-bullying prevention and training throughout the school year. Week of Respect is an opportunity for heightened anti-bullying programming.
Thousands of schools across New Jersey are holding activities during the Week of Respect, including public schools as required and even private schools not bound by the law. As the organization that wrote the law, Garden State Equality is visiting schools in every part of the state, North, Central and South Jersey, during Week of Respect – just as we do year-round. When we visit, we do state-of-the-art presentations on bullying prevention and training. We tailor our presentations to the audiences at hand, whether students, parents, teachers or administrators. We also visit non-school organizations simply to train people who care.
All our presentations are free – we do them as a public service. If you would like us to visit your school or organization, email firstname.lastname@example.com with your name, phone number, school or organization, and town. We'll be happy to visit during Week of Respect, the month of October or at any other time of the year that is convenient for you.
Here are just some of the events where you'll see Garden State Equality during Week of Respect and the rest of October:
Monday, October 1st at 1:30 pm: Week of Respect Kickoff at Thomas Jefferson Middle School, 655 Teaneck Road, Teaneck, featuring New Jersey Education Commissioner Chris Cerf and Assemblywoman Valerie Vainieri Huttle, author of the Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights.
Tuesday, October 2nd at 6:30 pm: West Orange Human Relations Commission, 66 Main Street Town Meeting, 66 Main Street West Orange.
Friday, October 5th at 9:30 am: Lindenwold High School, 801 Egg Harbor Road, Lindenwold.
Monday, October 8th at 3:30 pm: Columbia High School Spectrum, 17 Parker Avenue, Maplewood.
Thursday, October 11th at 7:00 pm: Kean University Gay-Straight Alliance, 1000 Morris Avenue, Union.
Wednesday, October 17th at 1:00 pm: Jewish Family Service of Central New Jersey, 655 Westfield Avenue, Elizabeth.
Sunday, October 21st at 10:00 am: Anti-Bullying Day and Expo in Support of Special Needs, Presented by Temple Emanuel at Cherry Hill High School East, 1750 Kresson Road, Cherry Hill.
Monday, October 22nd at 6:00 pm: Collingswood PFLAG, Public Library, 771 Haddon Avenue, Collingswood.
Thanks, everyone. We hope to see you at your school or organization sometime soon. Here's to working together for safer schools and a fairer world.

THE SOUL enters Sunday's regular-season finale having long ago clinched homefield advantage throughout the playoffs. It is coming off a bye week and welcoming in a Utah team that is playing for a division title.
This is a trap game if ever there was one.
So what, right? A loss won't effect the Soul in the standings. But it will give it something to think about during the postseason push. A punch in the nose might not kill you, but why bother with the discomfort?

Drew Pearce set to pen pic
Marvel Studios has tapped British TV writer-producer Drew Pearce to write "Iron Man 3," already scheduled for a May 3, 2013 release through Disney.
The hiring of Pearce comes in the wake of Shane Black being attached to direct "Iron Man 3," reuniting the "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" director with Robert Downey Jr., starring as billionaire Tony Stark and his armored superhero alter ego.
Jon Favreau had announced in December that he would not return to helm "Iron Man 3" for Marvel and Disney, which had paid Paramount $115 million two months earlier for the distribution rights to "Iron Man 3" and "The Avengers."
The first "Iron Man" earned $585 million worldwide, while this summer's follow-up generated another $621 million around the globe.
Pearce's TV producing credits include "No Heroics," "Lip Service" and "Damage Control."
He's repped by WME.

Need tutoring help for students? Get HelpNow at Stillwater Public Library
MEDIA RELEASE • For Immediate Release
For many parents, helping their children with homework requires a bewildering reeducation in subjects and skills like fractions, diagraming sentences, geometry and physics. The Stillwater Public Library will be showing students and parents how to get free, home tutoring on all of these subjects and more through its HelpNow service on Saturday, Sept. 21, from 1:30-3 p.m.
HelpNow is a comprehensive set of online academic and tutoring services designed to support many learning styles from kindergarteners to college students. It provides live, online help from qualified tutors who can assist with homework questions, essay writing and building academic skills.
The class will provide an overview of the HelpNow features and highlight the different study options. HelpNow is for use inside the library, and outside the library with a Stillwater Public Library card. It is free and available 24 hours a day, with live tutoring available from 2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
"HelpNow includes a ton of services, but the highlight is the live tutoring," said Lynda Reynolds, library director. "Its tutors are based in the United States, undergo background checks, must have earned a four year degree and have past tutoring experience. It's the service I wish I'd had when my children were in school."
Parents, teachers, and students are invited to the free class, though participants do need to bring their Stillwater Public Library card. Participants will be using computers to follow along with the class. Ten library computers are available for use and twenty other participants may bring their own laptop or tablet.

JERSEY CITY -- When Broncos kicker Matt Prater walked into the team's facility one day early last week, he wasn't able to stay for long. Looking sick and feeling it, head trainer Steve Antonopulos recognized that something was wrong. Almost immediately, he told Prater to leave the building and head for the doctors.
With the Broncos building up for the Super Bowl, there wasn't any time for risks. And with football players sharing close quarters and the potential for illnesses to spread quickly, the Broncos sent Prater home.
"Basically, you don't want to get anyone sick, especially before the Super Bowl<" he said today. "So they kept me away from everyone until they felt I was well enough, which was basically the day we traveled."
Prater says he missed 4-5 days, not returning to the team until they traveled to New Jersey Sunday. Now, he feels almost normal again.
Usually, he says, he does not get sick. Just some sniffles, at most, but Prater knew something was wrong when he could not muster the energy to even play Xbox. Instead, he stayed home, watched television and tried to eat when he could.
But everything grows a magnitude of importance when it's time to prepare for the Super Bowl and even Prater was a little startled at the attention.
"I saw my name go across the bottomline on ESPN was a start," he said.
Prater understands why he had to be kept apart from the Broncos. When a teammate gets sick, he tries to keep away from him.
So it went with him. And with his locker stuck between punter Britton Colquitt and Peyton Manning, he knew the Broncos wouldn't take any chances.
"My locker is right next to Peyton so they definitely kept me out of there," Prater said.

ESPANOLA (AP) - The Espanola school board is considering uniform dress for the district's 14 schools, but the parents of students at each school would have the final say.
If approved, the policy would go into effect in the 2002-2003 school year.
The board last week had the first of three required readings of the proposed uniform dress policy. The second and third readings will be at board meetings June 5 and June 19. The board could vote after that.
The parents of two-thirds of the students at each school would have to approve the uniform look before it would be instituted. The type and color of dress would be set by each school.
Students who refused to comply could be subject to discipline, including being banned from extracurricular activities or other school programs.
The proposed policy would exempt students from uniform dress only for financial or religious reasons. The financial exemption might not stand if uniform funds are offered to needy families.
Elias Coriz, a member of the school board, said he supports uniforms but is glad parents will be required to approve.
"Uniforms can't just be pushed on anybody at any school," he said. "It has to be that the community wants it. It's more positive than some kid wearing designer jeans and some kid who can't afford them."
Students at three Espanola elementary schools already wear uniforms as part of a pilot program that goes back two years.
Uniforms have reduced discipline problems and differences among the rich and poor students among the estimated 200 students at two of those schools, said their principal, Wilfredo Aguilar.
Aguilar also has worn the uniform dress of khaki pants or shorts and a white or blue polo-type shirt, to school every day since being challenged by a parent.
"We've really relied on staff support, parental support, but the students also," he said Thursday. "It has given the kids a sense of pride. We hope it will help with their self-esteem. We don't have to worry about one kid having more than another."
The schools' parent-teach organization created a fund to provide free uniforms to children from needy families, he said.

With a pet care industry that shows no signs of slowing down, K9 Resorts Daycare & Luxury Hotel (K9 Resorts) continues to see extraordinary growth and is pushing forward with its development plans, with a new location set to open within the next four months.
A one-of-a-kind daycare and overnight boarding facility specifically for dogs, brothers and founders Jason and Steven Parker, who also operate the brand's first location, have signed three agreements in 2012, allowing the franchise to open four to five new locations throughout its home turf of New Jersey and into Pennsylvania, on the heels of record breaking sales despite the recession.
"When it comes to pet care, there truly isn't anything out there like K9 Resorts," said Jason Parker. "The pet industry continues to grow and the timing for expansion could not be better. We can't wait to bring our signature services to even more areas of New Jersey and beyond in the coming years."
While New Jersey will continue to be the focus for initial expansion, the brothers are offering franchise territories all the way from Boston to Northern Virginia, and have heard interest from perspective franchisees in each state within that range. With five new franchise agreements already signed and four more set to close before the year's end, the Parkers are planning on having a total of 20 locations by 2014.
Created in 2005 as the second pet business run by the brothers, K9 Resorts is the result of years of pet care experience. As the business expands, the brothers are looking for franchisees who love dogs, are comfortable being in front of the public and have a passion for giving back to the community. With proven models and systems in place for success while also being the top-rated facility in New Jersey, there has never been a better time for the growth of the brand.
"Everyone we talk to about the opportunity loves the concept as much as they love their own dogs," said Steven Parker. "Most of them are unhappy with their current jobs and want to do something with their lives that they will truly enjoy. K9 Resorts presents them with a fantastic opportunity to not only love what they do, but make meaningful money while doing it."
As the industry's gold standard service for pet owners eager to provide their dog with the finest boarding available, the facilities are equipped with top-of-the-line dog pampering products, including accommodations that range from private 9' x 9' luxury suites with premium beds to smaller, executive quarters. According to the Parkers, K9 Resorts boasts the largest cage-free accommodations in the state. With a goal of becoming the number one pet care company in the nation, K9 resorts is well on track to reach that goal.

The Oregon signees you are most likely to hear about next football season:
Chris Harper
School: Northwest Wichita (Kan.)
Why: Listing as "athlete" in recruiting services makes many think he will switch to another position, but Harper and coach Mike Bellotti insist he is a quarterback. Athletic ability -- 4.45 in the 40, 320-pound bench press -- makes him an impact player anywhere. Has leadership skills and experience running a spread offense similar to Oregon's. Quote: "We believe he can be a tremendous quarterback. He has tremendous upside." -- Bellotti
LeGarrette Blount
School: East Mississippi Community College
Why: Doesn't always need an opening, but could bust through the window of opportunity created by Jonathan Stewart's early exit to the NFL and Jeremiah Johnson's knee injury. Bellotti compares Blount to former Oregon running Reuben Droughns.
Quote: "He obviously is gong to help us replace Jonathan Stewart and will compete for playing time immediately." -- Bellotti
-- John Hunt

Partially illustrated Sanskrit text with commentary
Handwritten on paper
Rajasthan, Western India
18th century
Museum no. IS.35:25-1971
A complete illustrated manuscript of the Samgrahanisutra or Sangrahanisutra, a Jain cosmographical text in Sanskrit composed in AD 1136 by Shrichandra Muni that includes Jain ideas about the structure of the universe and the mapping of space. The work is also named at the end as the Trailokya dipi, which is more usually applied to the Sangrahani Sutra of Jinabhadragani Kshamashramana, the earliest work of this class. The work is accompanied by an interlinear text in smaller devanagari script, which is possibly the commentary of Devabhadra. This manuscript is written on 56 oblong folios of paper. The copy is undated but appears to have been written and illustrated in Western India during the 18th century.
This folio (23) is an illustration of the lokapurusha or cosmic man with comments and numbers. The reverse side is text with a numerical table. The Jain cosmos is compared with the shape of a man and the three worlds are conceived within his frame. His head and upper part of the body represent the heavens, abode of the gods. The middle world, where humans dwell and the only region from which liberation can be obtained, is located at his narrow waist. Below the waist are the hells, shown broadest at the base of his tunic.

The Bell Centre will not have a problem selling beer at the arena when the Habs are playing a game on the road.
During the Habs' lengthy playoff run last spring, bar owner Peter Sergakis had complained to the board that the Bell Centre's licence only allowed for alcohol sales during live events — not for out-of-town games being shown on giant screens.
At the time, Sergakis contended that amounted to opening up a 20,000-seat bar.
Today, the Quebec liquor board formally dismissed Sergakis' complaint.

The Somerset County Park Commission will be conducting registration for English style, balanced seat riding lessons and the Horse Care Workshop program at Lord Stirling Stable, 256 South Maple Ave. Lessons are available for juniors (ages 9-17) and adults, and are designed for the absolute beginner through more advanced levels with jumping experience. The 10-week fall session begins the week of Sept. 16.
Current students have the option of registering for classes online. Beginning at 8 a.m., on Saturday, Aug. 24, class registrations will be accepted in the Stable office (until 3:30 p.m.) and on the Somerset County Park Commission website, somersetcountyparks.org. Online registration closes at midnight on Sept. 2; registrations will continue to be accepted in the stable office as space permits.
First time students, as well as those who prefer to pay by cash or check, will need to register in person at the Stable office.
Riders who have previous experience and can post the trot, but have not ridden at Lord Stirling Stable, must be evaluated prior to registration to be placed in the appropriate level. Call the stable office to schedule a testing appointment.
Adults above the Beginner 1 level have the option of riding once a week for the full 10-week session or for the first or last 5 weeks (tentatively scheduled to begin during the week of Oct. 14). Juniors may ride once a week for 10 weeks. The class schedule is available online and in the stable office.
The 10-week, one-hour program rates for Somerset County residents are $290 for flat (non-jumping) classes and $435 for out of county residents. Classes over fences are offered at an additional fee. For additional fee information, call the stable office or visit somersetcountyparks.org.
Payment is due at registration and is payable by cash, check, MasterCard, American Express, Visa or Discover. New students who live in Somerset County must show a driver's license, Motor Vehicle I.D. card or local tax form as proof of residency.
The stable office is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and may be reached at 908-766-5955 or NJ Relay at 711 for individuals with hearing impairment.
Information on this and other events of the Somerset County Park Commission can be found on the Internet at somersetcountyparks.org.

Mechanics of Quiet Breathing Questions+ notes
How is the respiratory system a two-compartment model? What lies in between it?
It is separated into the lungs and the chest wall. Pleural cavity lies in between.
Specify the unit of pressure adopted when considering the mechanics
of breathing.
pressure of centimeters of H2O units are used.
relative pressure
Pressure changes are relative changes. We are assuming that the pressure of the atmosphere is 0cmH2O because it is different wherever we are depending on altitude, temperature, etc.. There is therefore no difference in pressure between the atmospheric pressure and the alveolar pressure = 0cmH2O
atmospheric pressure
Atmospheric pressure, aka barometric pressure is the pressure outside of the body. (The weight of the air in the atmosphere on objects on Earth's surface). 760 mmHg/1atm. at sea level.
alveolar pressure
alveolar pressure:aka intrapulmonary pressure: pressure within the alveoli (0 cmH2O)
intra-pleural pressure
intra-pleural pressure: pressure outside the lungs but still within the thoracic cavity (pressure within the pleural space/intrapleural pressure) = -5 cmH2O
-negative pressure due to the lungs wanting to collapse and the chest wall wanting to expand
Transmural pressures
transmural pressure: pressure inside - pressure outside
=0 cmH2O - -5 cmH2O = +5 cmH2O is the transmural pressure of the lungs.
Describe the relationship between the transmural and elastic recoil
pressure of the lungs.
Transmural pressure ( +5 cmH2O) represents that +5 cmH2O of pressure prevents the lungs from collapsing and the chest wall from recoiling outwards!
A hole in the lung (inner component) or in the chest wall (outer component) will result in what types of pneumothorax?
Traumatic pneumothorax and spontaneous pneumothorax, respectively.
(Collapsed lung)
1. Chest Wall expands
2. alveolar and intrapleural pressure decreases (creates vacuum)
3. air flows into the lungs until alveolar pressure = atmospheric/barometric pressure.
-Increased volume = decreased pressure = vacuum = inspiration
What created this driving pressure?
The intercostal muscles and chest wall expanding.* check notes. inspiratory muscles contracting.*
How come alveolar pressure
decreases and then swings back
up but pleural pressure
decreases continuously during
Alveoli allows air in so the pressure increases, but the pleural cavity is unable to allow air in.
Iron lung
The whole body goes inside the iron lung and decreases the pressure around the body, thus sucking the chest wall out and allowing inspiration.
1. inspiratory muscles stop contracting
2. lungs recoil inwards (volume decreases)
3. alveolar and intrapleural pressures increase.-alveolar pressure rises above atmospheric pressure so air is expelled.
This expiration is passive.
The transmural pressure
of the lungs is always
positive during a breath
cycle; what does this
imply about the state of
the lungs?
Alveolar pressure will always be greater than intrapleural pressure no matter how much the alveolar pressure drops or increases. Intrapleural pressure is equal to or less than -5 cmH2O throughout the cycle
What is the relationship
between transmural
pressure & the elastic
recoil pressure of the
The more positive the transmural pressure, the more elastic recoil pressure is required to keep the lungs from collapsing.
Accessory muscles of inspiration
sternocleidomastoid - lifts the sternum
scalenus - lifts the first 2 ribs

LDF supports nomination of Mel Watt to Federal Housing Finance Authority10/30/13
Today, we are asking the Senate to do what it has done time and again, and that is to confirm one of its own colleagues – a fellow sitting Member of Congress – to a top level position in the Administration.
Congressman Mel Watt is eminently qualified to lead the Federal Housing Finance Authority. Given his expertise in housing, banking and insurance and his long government service working on these issues, we are extremely fortunate that he has agreed to serve his country by accepting this position.
Op-ed: Fair housing for renters, low-income remains lost after Sandy10/29/13
Veronica Joice wrote a critical and timely op-ed exposing the failure of local governments to address the needs of individuals and families with no real safety net -- low-income renters. The shortfalls she identifies emphasize the need for LDF and other stakeholders to hold federal and local governments accountable for the billions of dollars that have been earmarked for recovery to ensure that all households are able to rebound from the storm.

ok, i answered my question below but of course this leads to another
one. it seems that when xkb is disabled the problem disappears, or at
least is greatly diminished. the keyboard still gives me occasional
incorrect characters, and some of them in rapid succession. so, are
there problems with disabling xkb? other ways to modify the way the
keyboard sends information?
thanks in advance,
