Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I purchased a 2013 Honda CBR1000rr from Rick Case Honda. I did not get approved through American Honda Finance so they put me through a lease company called MotoLease. MotoLease sent me a decline letter because I lived outside of the State of Florida. I took the letter in to Rick Case and the Finance director informed me that I had to get a Florida Address even though I lived in Georgia. He was said it can be a relative or a friends address. I gave them my brothers address. The dealer knew I did not live at that address and they still mailed my license plate to that address.
A requirement of MototLease is that the bike have a GPS tracking device on it. The dealership never told me about this tracking device until the day of delivery when it was in the shop being installed. I get the bike home to Georgia after having it transported from the dealership and guess what? The brand new bike wont start with 1 mile on it wont start. They released a bike to me that would not even work. How nice of them. I have it towed to a Honda Cycle dealer here and they tell me the battery is shot. They replaced the battery for me. By the time the bike is towed back home, the battery is dead again. The tow truck brings the bike back to dealer. THe dealer looks at bike and says this tracking device is killing your battery. I called MotoLease and they tried their absolute hardest to make things right. Rick case on the other hand told me "You purchased the bike nothing we can do". MotoLease sent a new tracking device to dealer and covered all expenses.
Unfortunately the bike is still having the same problems.I filed a complaint with several florida agencies and they have all attempted to investigate. I received a letter back stating Rick Case will not cooperate. Really? I disputed the charge on my credit card for the entire down payment (on the gounds of an issue with a product, service, or merchant) and my bank, Bank of America, investigated and found Rick Case to be in the wrong and refunded my $2,500 back to me. I felt a little vindication. Rick Case sent a letter to the Florida Attorney General Stating they told me to but a battery charger that I have to plug the bike into the wall and charge it if it ever kills the battery. They never told me this and if they did, I would have never purchased the bike. Imagine having to push a dead bike across the street to a service station, charge the batter up, and then once its charged continue to your destination. Also keep in mind it can take 24 hours to charge. Not acceptable.
When purchasing from this dealer, please use caution as they will not assist you in any way after you have made the purchase.
This is the email I received when the state tried to investigate:
The Division of Consumer Services, Bureau of Mediation and Enforcement has attempted to mediate your complaint against this business. Unfortunately, the business has refused to cooperate, and we are unable to assist you further. Therefore, we are closing your complaint "Closed Unsatisfactorily."

Actress Robyn Malcolm is selling up and moving but unlike her character in Outrageous Fortune, she isn't looking to settle out west.
Malcolm, who plays Cheryl West in the top-rating series, is eyeing up a pad in Auckland's trendy suburbs of Grey Lynn or Ponsonby.
John Barnett, chief executive of South Pacific Pictures, which produces Outrageous Fortune, said Malcolm was looking to shift closer to the city for convenience.
"She's been looking at Grey Lynn and Ponsonby. She said to me she doesn't know why she's not already on the other side of the bridge," said Barnett.
Malcolm's $700,000, four-bedroom bungalow in Devonport is being sold by her former husband, Allan Clark, a real estate agent for Harcourts who was a former record label manager.
It was jointly owned by the couple before Malcolm took over sole ownership.
The house has been home to Malcolm and her two young sons, Charlie and Peter, for a number of years.
It has an open-plan kitchen and a backyard with a huge Puriri tree, complete with a tree house.
Neither Malcolm nor Clark would comment when contacted.
Malcolm, who was at the front of The Hobbit movie debate over wages and conditions for actors, said she was "trying to stay out of the media at the moment".

Samsung may be waiting to receive its $US1.03 billion bill after losing the American legal battle against Apple on Friday but the decision should have little impact on what happens in the Australian courts.
It may, however, mean the next wave of products from the Korean electronics giant will look substantially different from what the market is used to.
King & Wood Mallesons partner John Swinson said the US jury's decision would have no direct impact on the Australian market because the patents only apply to goods made or sold in the US. But he suggested there would be global ramifications if American Judge Lucy Koh decided to slap an injunction on the sale of Samsung products.
"If Samsung has to make changes to the design of its products, those will be made on a worldwide basis," Mr Swinson said. "This has implications for all Android devices."
It may throw a lifeline to Microsoft and its hardware partners, notably Nokia, which have struggled to land a telling blow in the smartphone market since forming their alliance.
The phones and software have a very different look and feel to those from Apple and its Android rivals.
Corrs Chambers Westgarth partner Matthew Swinn said it was not a simple matter of applying what happens overseas to local cases.
He said outcomes in one jurisdiction tend not to be particularly predictive of the result in another location, despite argument about ostensibly the same patent: for example, Apple did not have a hands-down victory in its UK case.
Commonly, US or UK counsel will be appointed to co-ordinate global litigation matters. "Usually the riding instructions to every other jurisdiction are, 'whatever you do, don't mess up the US case'," Mr Swinn said.
"Typically, the US case is the most important case by a long way because it represents half the global market."
He added that the absence of a jury in the Australian case will make a huge difference. "Both US parties will now be asking the judge to overturn the jury verdict and arrive at her own, different findings," Mr Swinn said.
Some US news outlets are hinting a mis-trial may be imminent after it emerged there were inconsistencies in the jury's verdict form.
It is also rumoured that the foreman, Velvin Hogan, told jurors they did not need to consider "prior art" because it was too complex.
Prior art is evidence of publicly available information that goes to the question of whether an invention is original. Mr Swinn said if that was the case, it was a big problem.
"In patent cases, prior art is the first thing you look at," he said.
"Therein lies the difficulty of dealing with juries in patent cases."
Legal experts say it is more than likely the case will be appealed to the Federal Circuit, in an attempt to reduce the size of the damages Samsung must pay. Apple originally wanted $US2.5 billion as compensation.
Minter Ellison partner Anthony Borgese said Apple was likely to use the US decision to try to force a resolution with Samsung in other jurisdictions including Australia and several European countries.
That Samsung has already indicated it plans to appeal the decision means it is unlikely to be in the mood for thrashing out any deal just yet.
Mr Borgese said the decision would be good for consumers because it would encourage a fresh wave of innovation.
"It sends a message that people have to be more creative," he said. "You have to be courageous to do something different but that promotes leapfrogging rather than the incremental change we have seen.
"Some people don't want Apple products but they do want real choice and everything has started to look the same at the moment."

Most PowerApps apps use external information stored in cloud services called Data Sources. A common example is a table in an Excel file stored in OneDrive for Business. Apps access these data sources by using Connections.
This article discusses the different kinds of data sources, and how to work with table data sources.
It is easy to create an app that does basic reading and writing to a data source. But sometimes you want more control over how data flows in and out of your app. This article describes how the Patch, DataSourceInfo, Validate, and Errors functions provide more control.
Data sources can be connected to a cloud service, or they can be local to an app.
The commonest data sources are tables, which you can use to retrieve and store information. You can use connections to data sources to read and write data in Microsoft Excel workbooks, SharePoint lists, SQL tables, and many other formats, which can be stored in cloud services like OneDrive for Business, DropBox, SQL Server, etc.
There are other kinds of data sources that are not tables, such as email, calendars, twitter, and (coming soon) notifications. This article does not discuss these other kinds of data sources.
Using the Gallery, Display form, and Edit form controls, it is easy to create an app that reads and writes data from a data source. To get started, read the article Understand data forms.
When you ask PowerApps to create an app from data, these controls are used. Behind the scenes, the app uses an internal table to store and manipulate the data that comes from the data source.
A special kind of data source is the Collection, which is local to the app and not backed by a connection to a service in the cloud, so the information can not be shared across devices for the same user or between users. Collections can be loaded and saved locally.
Tables that are internal to a PowerApps app are fixed values, just as a number or a string is a value. Internal tables aren't stored anywhere, they just exist in your app's memory. You can't directly modify the structure and data of a table. What you can do instead is to create a new table through a formula: you use that formula to make a modified copy of the original table.
External tables are stored in a data source for later retrieval and sharing. PowerApps provides "connections" to read and write stored data. Within a connection, you can access multiple tables of information. You'll select which tables to use in your app, and each will become a separate data source.
To learn more, Working with tables goes into more detail about internal tables, but it is also applicable to external tables residing in a cloud service.
You can use table data sources the same way that you use an internal PowerApps table. Just like an internal table, each data source has records, columns, and properties that you can use in formulas. In addition:
PowerApps can't be used to create a connected data source, or modify its structure; the data source must already exist in a service somewhere. For example, to create a table in an Excel workbook stored on OneDrive, you first use Excel Online on OneDrive to create a workbook. Next you create a connection to it from your app.
However, collection data sources can be created and modified inside an app, but are only temporary.
The diagram above shows the flow of information when an app reads the information in a data source:
In the prededing section, you saw how to read a data source. Note that the arrows in the diagram above are one way. Changes to a data source aren't pushed back through the same formulas in which the data was retrieved. Instead, new formulas are used. Often a different screen is used for editing a record than for browsing records, especially on a mobile device.
Note that, to modify an existing record of a data source, the record must have originally come from the data source. The record may have traveled through a gallery, a context variable, and any number of formulas, but its origin should be traceable back to the data source. This is important because additional information travels with the record that uniquely identifies it, ensuring that you modify the correct record.
The diagram above shows the flow of information to update a data source:
For more fine grained control over the process, you can also use the Patch and Errors function. The Edit form control exposes an Updates property so that you can read the values of the fields within the form. You can also use this property to call a custom connector on a connection, completely bypassing the Patch and SubmitForm functions.
Before making a change to a record, the app should do what it can to make sure the change will be acceptable. There are two reasons for this:
PowerApps offers two tools for validation:
Great, you've validated your record. Time to update that record with Patch!
But, alas, there may still be a problem. The network is down, validation at the service failed, or the user doesn't have the right permissions, just to name a few of the possible errors your app may encounter. It needs to respond appropriately to error situations, providing feedback to the user and a means for them to make it right.
When errors occur with a data source, your app automatically records the error information and makes it available through the Errors function. Errors are associated with the records that had the problems. If the problem is something the user can fix, such as a validation problem, they can resubmit the record, and the errors will be cleared.
If an error occurs when a record is created with Patch or Collect, there is no record to associate any errors with. In this case, blank will be returned by Patch and can be used as the record argument to Errors. Creation errors are cleared with the next operation.
The Errors function returns a table of error information. This information can include the column information, if the error can be attributed to a particular column. Use column-level error messages in label controls that are close to where the column is located on the edit screen. Use record-level error messages where the Column in the error table is blank, in a location close to the Save button for the entire record.
When you are creating reports from large data sources (perhaps millions of records), you want to minimize network traffic. Let's say you want to report on all Customers having a StatusCode of "Platinum" in New York City. And that your Customers table contains millions of records.
You do not want to bring those millions of Customers into your app, and then choose the ones you want. What you want is to have that choosing happen inside the cloud service where your table is stored, and only send the chosen records over the network.
Many, but not all, functions that you can use to choose records can be delegated, which means that they are run inside the cloud service. You can learn how to do this by reading about Delegation.
Collections are a special kind of data source. They're local to the app and not backed by a connection to a service in the cloud, so the information can not be shared across devices for the same user or between users. They operate like any other data source, with a few exceptions:
For more information on working with a collection as a data source, see create and update a collection.
Collections are commonly used to hold global state for the app. See working with variables for the options available for managing state.

When we first started, we often ask "What is the state of our women today?"
"What are their thoughts on how Malaysia is developing and where it should be heading?"
These questions have been faithfully lighting our path. Undoubtedly, we will ask them time and again simply because we women are at the heart of Malaysia's resilience and sustainability. Everything and in anything we do leaves a mark in national development. We believe that as we evolve, re-defining our roles and identity, we evidently shape the society we all live in.
Our work at Penita is to build a resource centre where diverse range of information on women's concerns and knowledge can be shared and build upon. A place were women from all walks of life can participate in creating knowledge projects that benefit other women and communities. Where women's voices can be strengthened and minds ignited for our self-development and that of our communities. We believe knowledge is the key that unlocks all these potentials.

A mutant rat that mimics a 400-pound human is helping scientists understand early vascular changes that make walking a pain for more than 2 million Americans.
"Everybody knows that obesity eventually causes diabetes and that when you have complications of the disease, you may even die," says Dr. David W. Stepp, cardiovascular researcher in the Medical College of Georgia Vascular Biology Center.
"What is underappreciated … is that there are vascular changes and cardiovascular effects of obesity well before you become diabetic."
The Obese Zucker rat model shares the symptoms of obesity with a growing number of Americans. "For example, these animals are glucose intolerent, slightly hypertensive and showing protein in their urine. They have kidney dysfunction even though they are not yet diabetic," he says.
That is because small blood vessels in their kidneys already have begun to fail. All the fat rats eventually will get diabetes, but these ailing animals still have the same blood glucose levels as their lean peers. "When they go into frank diabetes, that pushes their kidneys over the edge. The goal of our lab is to use this model to examine vascular disease in other organs, especially the limbs."
Dr. Stepp recently received a $1.4 million grant from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute to study these early vascular changes, called peripheral vascular disease, that can result from obesity, smoking and inactivity.
His goal is to prevent a common condition with significant quality-of-life consequences. "The reason peripheral vascular disease is of interest to us is not because it kills but because patients with it often have quality of life indices worse than those of terminal cancer," Dr. Stepp says. "They can't walk. They don't have any mobility. They are not free. They feel humiliated and miserable."
Causes are multifaceted. "One of the things that goes on is the number of vessels shrinks," says Dr. Stepp, leaving legs, for example, starved for blood and oxygen. "What we think happens is the sympathethic nervous system, which makes blood pressure go up, is cranked up in obese individuals."
To make matters worse, obesity also changes energy use in the body, creating a state called insulin-resistance, a precursor for diabetes, that in the shorter term dumps more fat, or lipid, in the blood. Changed blood content affects sensitive blood vessel lining so vessels don't dilate well. That increased pressure decreases blood flow which gives surrounding tissue the wrong idea. "The dilator signal is not getting through, the constrictor signal is too high so blood pressure goes up and blood flow goes down," says Dr. Stepp. "If your blood flow is chronically low, your local organs say, 'Oh the flow is low. I must not need this vessel,' and it goes away. Anything you don't use atrophies."
Interestingly, lost vessels may not be missed until the person tries to be more active and the deprived tissue protests with pain.
"As long as you don't do that much, low blood flow is fine; you can function," says Dr. Stepp. "But now let's say you have a clot in one of your arteries and you need to increase blood flow to get around it. You can't do it. Now let's say you want to exercise. You can't do it. All the blood supply, all the reserve you think you are supposed to have, is gone."
He sees this in his Zucker rats. Lean rats love to run fast but the fat rats have dramatically reduced capacity for such sport.
"One of the things we would like to find out is, if we train the animals, can we get that capacity back? That we don't know. Nobody has done that."
Another key question is how much the revved-up sympathetic nervous system, reduced ability to dilate and structural changes in blood vessel linings each contribute to peripheral vascular disease. And, if you take one away, say with vasodilators to improve dilatation, does it fix the problem?
"One of the questions we are asking is how much of vascular disease is metabolic changes and how much is just from being obese? They go hand-in-hand, but which one is causing the disease? What if you subtract one of them out? Will you get it slower, or not at all or some mixed portion of it? If we can identify the root cause of the end-stage disease, we can design therapies to intervene early and develop better diagnostic tools," Dr. Stepp says.
So he looks at what happens to exercise capacity when the sympathetic nervous system is blocked or a nitrate patch is used to improve impaired dilation.
"The holy grail of all this is if you can figure out how obesity impairs vascular fucntion and how exercise makes it better and bottle it," he says, acknowledging obvious questions about why obese people can't just exercise. "While it's easy to say 'go exercise,' people who are genetically obese (about 50 percent of the obese population) or who have been obese all their lives may have trouble exercising intensely enough to improve vascular function. By identifying ways to mimic the positive effects of exercise in an obese population, we may come up with new ways to treat all patients who have peripheral vascular disease."

New foe for Brian Cohen!
By Rick Scharmberg
Brian Cohen (9-1, 8 KOs), of Philadelphia, PA will now face Billy Bailey (7-3, 5 KOs), of Bakersfield, CA in the light heavyweight main event on Saturday night's card at South Philadelphia High School in Philadelphia, PA. Cohen's original opponent, Robbie Tovar, of Lafayette, IN, pulled out for personal reasons. The card is highly anticipated in Philadelphia because it features several hot prospects, such as Kensington's Dennis Hasson (5-0, 2 KOs), who will face Michael Rayner (6-10, 5 KOs), of Lumberton, NC in a six round super middleweight bout. Also featured is North Philly's Tony Ferrante (4-0, 1 KO), who will engage South Carolina's Robert Dunton in a six round cruiserweight bout. There will be four additional bouts, including a female bout between debuting Nasia Brown and Karen Dulin, of Mystic, CT. Tickets are priced at $20, $40, and $50 and can be purchased by calling 215-755-8155. Doors open at 6:30. First bout 7:30.

Метод сравнения: ДИНАМИЧЕСКИЙ АНАЛИЗ ИЗОБРАЖЕНИЯ | ДИФРАКЦИЯ РАССЕВ
Разные технологии определения размера частиц дают разные результаты измерения, но что из них Истина? Наиболее распространенными методами определения размера частиц являются следующие: динамический анализ зображений (ДАИ), статическое лазерное рассеивание света (СЛРС, или лазерная дифракция) и ситовой анализ. В данной публикации описаны преимущества и недостатки каждого из методов, их сравнение на примерах различного использования.
Определение размера и формы частиц металлических порошков методом
Технологии порошковой металлургии стремительно набирают популярность по всему миру. Передовые технологии производства требуют использования порошков со строго заданными свойствами (химический состав, распределение частиц по размерам и форма частиц), поскольку эти свойства оказывают большое влияние на эффективность процесса.
Particle Characterization of Metal Powders with Dynamic Image Analysis
Production capacities for specialized metal powders are increasing worldwide. Advances in production technologies generate a demand for tailored and tightly controlled powders with distinctive properties in terms of chemical composition, particle size distribution, and particle morphology, as these greatly influence the subsequent processing.
Software Module Particle X-Plorer
The software module Particle X-Plorer is used in both CAMSIZER P4 and CAMSIZER X2. It offers the user a wealth of features and possibilities like image evaluation, particle lists and 3D scatterplots to obtain in-depth knowledge of his sample.
Improving quality control through effective particle characterisation of metal powders
Advances in Powder Metallurgy production technologies are generating an increased demand for tailored and tightly controlled powders with distinctive properties. The control of particle size distribution, as well as particle shape, is an important step in the quality control process. In this article we compare the three most commonly used methods for powder characterisation and highlights the pros and cons of each process.
Aromatic Beans
With an estimated 1.4 billion cups of coffee consumed worldwide every day, there is a great and ever increasing demand for coffee beans in the global market. The taste of coffee is influenced by the roasting of the beans, their grinding degree and the method and quality of the preparation. Different types of preparation by brewing and filtering (e.g. espresso machine, filter coffee or mocca) require different grinding degrees of the coffee powder to obtain an aromatic result. When roasted beans are ground to powder, the determination of the particle size is a critical aspect because the particle size influences the brewing and filtering properties and thus the taste and salubriousness of the coffee.
Particle Characterization with Dynamic Image Analysis
Sieve analysis and laser diffraction are long established methods for the determination of particle size distributions. Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) is another particle analysis technology to measure particles > 1 micron which has numerous advantages over these methods.
Retsch Technology's particle analyzers CAMSIZER and CAMSIZER XT, which are based on DIA technology, evaluate images of the particles which provide considerably more information on the particles than, for example, a light scattering pattern produced by a laser diffraction particle analyzer. These only allow for an indirect measurement of the particle size. The determination of parameters such as the length, width, or sphericity of particles is only possible by using image analysis.
Seeing is believing: Particle size and shape measurement with Dynamic Image Analysis
Traditionally, particle size distribution analysis of pharmaceutical powders and granules is carried out by sieve analysis, microscopy or with laser diffraction. These methods are established in the pharmacopoeia and used routinely in pharmaceutical laboratories all over the world.
With the introduction of Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) as an alternative method, it is now possible to measure particle sizes >1 micron of powders, granules, pellets and suspensions as well as particle shape. A number of trials clearly demonstrate the advantages of DIA compared to the established particle sizing methods.
CAMSIZER XT - Quality Control of building materials
The CAMSIZER XT has been successfully installed at building material plants around the world replacing sieve analysis by providing quick, reliable high resolution results while still matching historic sieve data. The typical measurement time varies between 1 to 3 min depending on the desired measuring statistics. Reported result parameters include smallest diameter, length, mean diameter, aspect ratio, symmetry, sphericity, and convexity.
Different production sites, identical production quality
Quality control of solder powders with the CAMSIZER XT - solder pastes are used in the electronics industry for reflow-soldering of SMD (surface mounted devices) components on printed circuit board (PCB) assemblies. The solder paste is printed on the contact pads and the components are mounted on these pads. The paste attaches the components on the PCB until the PCB is heated in an oven where the solder paste melts. The melt connects the electronic components (resistors, transistors, ICs, EPROMS, etc.) and the contact pads of the PCB providing the electric contact and mechanical fixture after cooling and solidification. An essential component of solder paste, beside the flux, is the solder powder.
Efficient and precise: Particle size and shape measurement of sugar with Dynamic Image Analysis
Sieve analysis according to ICUMSA Method GS2/9-37 is the standard for particle sizing of crystal sugar. Officially, all labs follow these guidelines, and comparable results should be seen in round robin tests. On a closer look however, each lab
follows procedures that deviate slightly from those outlined in the ICUMSA Method. As a result, the size distributions measured by different labs vary remarkably. In this article we will discuss the typical deviations that can be found in the daily operation, and propose a new analysis method which provides
more reproducible and reliable results.
Particle Size Distributions: Dynamic Image Analysis Beats Laser Diffraction
Laser diffraction is the most frequently used measurement technique for the analysis of particle size distributions in the range 1 micron to 1 mm in the context of quality control. Modern laser diffraction systems offer some convincing advantages such as short measurement times, easy operation and reproducible analysis results. However, they also have various disadvantages: Even if the instruments have been calibrated and validated, an absolute particle size measurement is not possible. Various round robin tests have shown that the analysis results depend strongly on the type of instrument and even on the particular model and software version.
New Particle Analyzer CAMSIZER XT
The quality control of fine powders can be substantially improved with the new CAMSIZER XT: More precise and faster analysis of particle size and particle shape helps to improve the product quality, reduce rejects and save costs.

Construction Materials
The building materials industry uses naturally occurring substances such as various minerals like limestone, clay, sand, glass (SiO
) or wood as well as synthetic polymers and multiple combinations of both (composites). No matter which type of building material, the particle size and shape of the raw materials influence the physical properties of the end product, and therefore need to be analyzed as part of the quality control process.

Wood Fibres
Woodfibers are a 100% renewable organic material which is used for many different applications, including for example construction materials, animal bedding pellets, and biomass for energy generation.
For all these applications, wood is shredded into fine chips or flakes, or finely ground (sawdust).
The size and shape of the particles is not only important for the homogeneity and strength of chipboards, as well as their production process parameters, but for example also for the gasification of wood as biofuel in engines. For the latter process, the surface area of the pulverised material, for example, will strongly influence the pyrolysis process.
[pdf] Английский (319 KB)
Cellulose Fibres
The size and shape of the cellulose fibers are important for example for the texture of the final paper surface, but also for inherent properties of the final product like the tensile strength as well as for production parameters. Thus the quality control of the raw fiber material is an important step, for example for the production of special papers for banknotes.
Traditionally, the fibers are analysed under a microscope or with laser particle sizers.
The first method provides an overview over the shape of the particles, but it is a tedious, time consuming process which does not allow to measure a representative large number of fibers. The second method is fast and analyses many particles simultaneously, but it does not allow for shape analysis. Thus, both methods are not optimal. The CAMSIZER XT provides both: analysis of a high number of particles in a short time, and information about the shape of the fibers.

Metal Powders
The size range of the metal powders varies from a few μm to mm size, depending on the applications. Different processes are used for the production of the powders, including grinding and various atomization processes (gas, water, spinning disc).
Most commonly the wide size range of the initial production step is narrowed down by sieving or sifting techniques to final products with narrow size ranges.

The CAMSIZER XT can analyze the foodstuffs which typically come in many different forms of appearance such as powders, crystals, granulates or suspensions. Particle size of both raw materials and finished products affect taste, solubility, exctraction behavior, mouth feel and many other physical properties. The material is often agglomerated, oily or sticky, so proper dispersion is a big challenge. Air jet sieving or laser diffraction are commonly used mehods, but they suffer from bad resolution and high labour input (sieving) or limited data significance or sensitivity (laser diffraction).

The high throughput makes the CAMSIZER XT a perfect tool for routine analysis in quality control.
The following materials can conveniently be analyzed with the CAMSIZER XT:
Granulated material Powders
Active pharmaceutical ingredients
Excipients (Starch, Cellulose, Sugars etc...)
Crystalline Material (e.g. citric acid)

Additive Manufacturing (metal powder)
The term "Additive Manufacturing" describes a process where digital 3D design data, typically generated by CAD, are used to build a component layer by layer by depositing material. A number of manufacturers offer 3D printers or systems for Additive Manufacturing based on a variety of technologies and materials. The basis for most of the above-mentioned processes is a powder bed on which material is sequentially deposited. Depending on the desired specifications of the 3D components, different types of powders are employed in the printing process. The particle size distribution and shape of the powders is a critical parameter for the operating conditions of the printer and also for the properties of the final product.

Carbon Products
The CAMSIZER XT may be used for the size and shape analysis of graphite, powdered or crushed coal and coke, activated carbon even industrial diamonds which are used as abrasives.
If the material is a fine powder or does not flow freely due to high dust content, the X-Jet module can be used. For coarser, dust-free material samples the X-Fall is an option.

Building Materials
Any material used for construction purposes can be called building material. They are used in multiple facets of construction including carpentry, roofing, structural reinforcement, insulation, and plumbing. The particle size and shape of the raw materials used influence quality and performance, and therefore require analysis to quantify these physical properties. This application note describes how the CAMSIZER XT has been successfully implemented to determine the size and shape of various building materials.

This review is from: LOGISYS Computer CS308RD Red / Black Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 480W Power Supply
Hmm......I bought this case for a customer who ordered a mid level gaming system. It has damage and appears to have been opened or used...
When I unboxed the case I noticed some scratches on the side panel "window." Also, It was cracked/broken at every screw attachment hole as if it was assembled with too much torque applied to the screws. I now must show my customer this and likely discount the cost of this case from the purchase price of the system. Every other case I have bought in the past that had a clear side panel window was ALWAYS protected from scratches by a clear Mylar or plastic sheet that I could remove after the system was assembled. This way the customer is very happy, Now, I am not.

What a fantastic holiday! We had a great time in West Hampstead:
very hospitable host, lovely room, convenient location with nice restaurants and close to all kinds of public transport. We would go there again any time!!
It was a pleasure to stay here. The place is very good connected to the city centre by bus as well by tube. Caroline was the perfect host, very friendly and helpful.
We had a very delightfull stay in Caroline's appartment. It is lovely, warm and confortable, good located, close the subway and station. Caroline is a very nice person,ready to help. We had very pleasant moments with her.
We are ready to come back here the next time
I had to cancel my reservation because of my revised travel plans to leave from Amsterdam instead of Brussels. That placed me too far away from this home to make my stay convenient. Caroline was gracious to allow me the change days before my arrival.
Caroline oh Caroline, what a most amazing host and what a most wonderful place to have stayed! All I dreamt off. A great House, the way I love it. Art everywhere, wood, stairs, not new or barren oh no, full of books and soul. A great bed a great mattress, blankets. Tea at one's disposal and oh the fireplace, lit by a single strike of a match bringing so much warmth and coziness. This was THE place for me . We had a real heart to heart intuitive encounter full of joy and laughter. Her daughter of 15 Elsie is a love too. I have no words (or a thousand) to describe the calm and peace of mind, the sound sleep and the wonderful wonderful stay I had with Miss Caroline Oulton in West Hampstead (Plus that she is a great writer of books :))
The perfect place to stay during our five day visit of London; a warm house with warm hostesses in a pleasant neighbourhood near the heart of London. We will come back again.
From the very beginning I felt like being at home in Caroline s beautiful house. Everything was just perfect. Caroline and Elsie are very kind and uncomplicated and gave me lots of special tips. The room is spacious with a cosy athmosphere
and the bed is very comfortable. In the morning when I had my breakfast I enjoyed the spectactular view from the roof top.
West Hampstead is a lovely area with lots of interesting shops, supermarkets with freshly made food, cafes and a variety of nice restaurants. The bus station is just opposite the house and the tube station is only a short walk with easy access to Central London. I would highy recommend this place to anyone and I hope to come back very soon to enjoy the fireplace in the room which is indeed very special.
Caroline welcomed us into to her home whole heartedly and we felt at home there almost instantly.
The house is a fascinating modernised Victorian terrace, situated in a very interesting part of the London Suburbs, with plenty of Gluten Free options in both the local shops and restaurants.
Getting around from the house by Tube or bus was a breeze.
We are already looking forward to staying there again the next time that we are in London.

BERKELEY >> California agencies have very little authority to regulate a massive increase in crude oil shipments by rail, and only now are they realizing the magnitude of the potentially explosive situation, according to state officials speaking at a workshop sponsored by the California Energy Commission.
"It's a wake up call when you look at the projections," said commission Chair Robert Weisenmiller. "We have to plan for the worst case."
Only in the last month, thanks to an order by the U.S. Department of Transportation, have railroads begun to disclose to the state Office of Emergency Services shipments of 1 million gallons or more of highly flammable Bakken crude oil. Before that happened May 7, nobody knew anything about the shipments or where they were going, Weisenmiller said.
Crude oil rail shipments have increased 506 percent in 2013 to 6.3 million barrels, according to a report by the state Interagency Rail Safety Working Group released June 10. That number could increase to 150 million barrels of oil in 2016, it said. Petroleum spills on railroads in California increased from 98 in 2010 to 182 in 2013, according to the Office of Emergency Services.
In California, crude goes by rail to the cities of Richmond, Sacramento, Bakersfield, Carson, Long Beach and Vernon, according to the energy commission, traveling through Sacramento and Davis.
This week state Senator Lois Wolk, D-Davis, pressed for timely disclosure of crude oil shipments by railroad shipping companies, following Wednesday's release by the State Office of Emergency Services. The report disclosed a shipment of 1 million gallons or more crude oil through Northern California by BNSF Railway, the largest crude-by-rail transporter, earlier this month.
BNSF's June 13 disclosure of an earlier shipment followed an order last month by the U.S. Department of Transportation that railroads must begin sharing information about large shipments of crude oil with state and local officials. The federal order denied long-standing claims by railroads that this information should remain confidential, claiming the information includes "proprietary and confidential trade" secrets and poses security concerns.
"While I applaud the Office of Emergency Services' release of BNSF Railway's after-the-fact disclosure of a crude-by-rail shipment through nine Northern California counties earlier this month, what the public wants and what local responders need is information regarding future shipments of crude oil by rail, in order to better prepare any necessary response in the event of any potential accident or mishap with this hazardous cargo," said Wolk. "I call on the federal and state government to require railroads to provide advance notice regarding hazardous material shipments through our communities."
The only thing state and local governments can do to try and prevent a catastrophic disaster is to enforce federal rules and prepare local first responders, officials said. The regulatory effort falls on the California Public Utilities Commission President Michael Peevey.
"I'm not enthusiastic about having tens of thousands of tank cars running around California because accidents are inevitable," Peevey said at the Wednesday workshop. "There's been a huge increase in volume and we have to step up our awareness and activities, in cooperation with the federal government, but the feds have the ultimate responsibility."
The commission recently added seven rail safety inspectors who look at rail cars, railroad lines, bridges and shipping requirements, bringing the total to 59 inspectors statewide, which Peevey said was adequate for this year.
Peevey dismissed criticism that the PUC has been too easy on industry it is supposed to regulate, and assured the public it is up to the task.
"We've been pretty darn tough," he said.
Weisenmiller said the state first needs to identify the areas most at risk for crashes and make sure the tracks are maintained. He acknowledged there is no way to prevent shipments from coming into the state, but the state can "get its act together and reach out to communities near rail lines and provide first responders with information and technical expertise," so they can respond to an accident.
As the state tries to catch up and wrap its collective mind around the increased shipments, oil companies are attempting to add projects that would bring in more oil by rail.
Valero Refining Co. is planning on 100 cars per day to its Benicia facility by the first quarter of 2015; West Pac Energy is planning 70 cars per day to a facility in Pittsburg; Phillips 66 is planning a crude-by-rail project in Santa Maria that could bring shipments through the Bay Area; Alon USA is planning 200 cars a day in Bakersfield and Plains All American is planning for 200 cars a day in Bakersfield, according to the Oil by Rail Safety in California report.
Union Pacific Railroad Spokeswoman Liisa Lawson Stark said the company is not transporting any Bakken crude into the state, but it is bringing in other types of oil.
But Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway is bringing in nine full train loads of Bakken per month into California, said spokeswoman LaDonna DiCamillo. She did not know how many tank cars each train has or what the actual volume is.
Lawson Stark said that even though railroads are now required to report shipments of the highly flammable Bakken crude oil to the Office of Emergency Services, the information most likely will not be available to the public. A spokesman for the office did not immediately return phone calls.

Hi everyone!
I have tried to behave myself and haven't done too bad. I have kept my spending to a very bare minimum lately. Well it takes time to break or slow down these habits. On the plus side I have made 5 cozy shawls for charity out of my stash. Then I made 25 scrubbies with nylon netting. I made 3 baby receiving blankets for charity. Also, a scrappy blah baby quilt that will go to our local charity also. It is a start anyway.

BBC Review
Dubcore heavymetal jazz in this second album from British quintet.
Peter Marsh 2002
Not to be confused with the 70s German electronic outfit of the same name, UK quintet Sand offer up a new genre; hardcore jazz metal electronica. Or something like that. Originally an offshoot of programmer Tim Wright's Germ project with trombonist Hilary Jeffrey, Sand's diverse influences and activities (members of the band are involved in noisy dubcore outfit Scorn, jazz and electroacoustic composition) are greater than the sum of their parts.
Still Born Alive is a dense and occasionally pretty scary brew of bass heavy grooves, noise and jazz improv; imagine Dark Magus era Miles Davis played by Black Sabbath and mixed by Conny Plank. Like Can, Sand strip funk of its booty shaking joy and reduce it to pure pulse, an unstoppable journey to nowhere in particular.
Rowan Oliver's drums suggest a meeting of Al Foster and Jaki Liebezeit while John Richards' electric bass is a malevolent, fuzzed monster. Occasionally (as on the superbly intense "Airlock"), his melodic springy double bass adds extra texture, while fretless bass whoops punctuate the downtempo throb of "Body in the River". Throughout Jeffrey's fluid, treated trombone is the ghost in the machine, carving out forlorn melodics, angry blurtings or fogbanks of long delayed tones. His solo on the last part of "Bromide Fist" is a bit of a peach and makes Sand's connection with the more adventurous end of electric jazz (Miles, Mwandishi et al) explicit.
Wright's electronics are subtle yet crucial; gassy hisses, distended synth bass, jet engine howl and metallic bursts drift in and out, while his screamed distorted vocal on the closing hardcore blast of "Rubber Eye" is suitably deranged. Guitarist Neil Griffiths provides a raw, scabrous energy; vicious wah'ed chords or anguished feedback swoops. Intense, brutish and short (would that more cds were less than 40 minutes long), Still Born Alive leaves you exhausted yet wanting more. Play loud and often.

Tennessee Head Coach Cuonzo Martin
(Opening Comments:)
"[Vanderbilt] did a good job setting the tone start to finish. They played hard and protected their court. [Jeffery] Taylor did a really good job to set the pace. We did not shoot well and there was no real follow-though. We weren't able to consistently get inside. [Vanderbilt] did a good job across the board, start to finish."
(On Tennessee's 25 Turnovers:)
"We've got to take care of the ball. I can't count just one thing that led to that."
(On Whether He Was Frustrated with His Team's Play:)
"No [I wasn't frustrated with their play], I was frustrated with 25 turnovers. If my team plays hard, I can deal with that. If you are turning the ball over, you can't find a chance to win."
(On Vanderbilt's Defense of Tennessee's Jarnell Stokes:)
"I think [they focused on him in scouting]. He's a young guy and a physical presence around the rim. They made him work for everything and he had seven turnovers. I think it is a good thing for him to go through. It's a good lesson for him."
(On Falling Behind Early in the Game:)
"They ran off... We couldn't make shots and had too many turnovers. When you have turnovers and don't make baskets, you can't win. We settled some in the second half."
(On if the Game Was Too Physical:)
"Not from our standpoint. Yemi [Makanjuola] is a physical guy. He wasn't trying to hurt anyone. In Jarnell [Stokes'] case, I couldn't see what happened. Neither team is built to play that way."
(On Vanderbilt's Play:)
"They are a good team, experienced. We didn't play as well as we are capable of, but they are a good team. "
(On the Positives of Tennessee's Performance:)
"I like the way Wes Washpun defended the ball. I liked the way Yemi [Makanjuola] came in and played. I thought we did a good job at times, those two especially."
(On Whether Today's Loss is a Setback:)
"Not at all. We have to get back to work and keep pushing. We have to find a way to compete and win on the road. We just have to get back to work."
Forward Jeronne Maymon
(On the early problems:)
"The turnovers really hurt us. I heard that we had more turnovers than we had baskets. You're not going to win a game like that, or even get close, so it was really hard for us tonight."
(On how physical the game was:)
"It was real physical, probably the most physical all year that I've played in. I guess a couple of the guys got rattled. A couple of our guards had a tough time catching the ball on the wing, so it was just hard for us all around."
(On the play when he got injured:)
"They were coming to double, and I went right into it. The top of my head hit Ezeli's chest/chin area, and that kind of just jammed my neck. I went down. I kind of blacked out for a second. It was a little tingly feeling."
(On the frustrations of a loss after a win:)
"It's very frustrating because we were pretty high after that win. We came in with the right kind of mind set, and were hoping to go out here and make it a good game, but as we saw we couldn't do that today."
(On embracing the road environment:)
"As a ball player you have to love going in someone else's gym, especially when it's a hostile environment. We all have to be tougher. We're a tough team, but on the road we don't bring the same energy as we do when we're at home."
(On Stokes turnovers:)
"He wasn't used to the physicality of it. This is the most physical game that I've played in. I think he has to get his elbows up. His turnovers were all down in the paint, when they were swiping the ball from him as he was trying to go up, so we'll get that corrected."
(On Vandy playing more physical:)
"It kind of threw us off. We weren't expecting them to come out and deny on wings. We couldn't get the ball in. We were posting at odd angles and weird places. We just have to get in the gym and refocus."
Guard Trae Golden
(On Taylor guarding him:)
"He's a big guy. They just did a really good job of switching screens. All of their one through four men can really guard the guards on the wing, and they did a really good job of doing that. They played a great defensive game and held us to a bad shooting night."
(On the turnover problem:)
"I wish I knew so we could figure it out. I think we're just rushing, and getting caught up in the crowd. That's just something that really hurts us. 25 turnovers tonight, I think there were 30 points off of turnovers, there's no way you can win an SEC basketball game on the road with that. It's tough."
(On the loss after the win:)
"I think it's hard because you feel like you're on a roll, and then you come in here and they kind of handled us. It's something that we just have to keep working at. We have to cut down on the turnovers. In the second half of UConn I think we had one turnover, and that was really good, and that's something we need to really make sure that we focus on and get better at."
(On getting pushed around:)
"I guess it was surprising because we I feel like we hang our hat on being tough. They played a great game defensively and offensively. My hat's off to them. They did a great job tonight."
Vanderbilt Head Coach Kevin Stallings
(Opening Comments:)
"It was a very physical game, which I anticipated. I thought our guys really defended, and defended for 40 minutes. We were active defensively and created a lot of turnovers. I thought we did a better job of defending the three than in the second half of the Mississippi State game."
(On Tennessee's 25 Turnovers:)
"We were active. Our hands got in a lot of balls... It was a very physical battle. We have older, physical guys and they played well."
(On Vanderbilt's Festus Ezeli:)
"He means a lot to us offensively and defensively. He creates foul trouble. He... gets fouled a lot. Then, defensively, if we get beat off the dribble, he's back there to clean up the problem."
(On Vanderbilt Playing with Passion:)
"It's a rivalry game. We feel like... last year, we let the games [against Tennessee] get away from us. Our guys were in tune and wanted to play, and played very well."
(On Vanderbilt's Jeffrey Taylor:)
"The thing with Jeff is that he's active defensively, active on the boards, and active offensively in his cutting. He gets himself to open shots. He played a complete game... He took the right shots and was an active player. When Jeff is active, he's very good."
(On Whether Vanderbilt's Practice Was Indicative of Tonight's Performance:)
"I've learned to not take anything for granted. That's all I can say. They played hard and they played well. They were down with what happened in the second half on Saturday [against Mississippi State]. They're going to rebound in almost any situation, but they can do enough like what they did at the end of the game on Saturday night to keep me guessing."
(On Vanderbilt's Fast Start:)
"It was great. We were up 19 at halftime and we weren't relaxed... It's about us getting better. That's the key for our team. Our focus [tonight at halftime] was on the second half. We wanted to play as well as we did in the first half, especially defensively, and I think we did."
Forward Jeffery Taylor
(On a solid rebounding performance:)
"I've had a couple of good games other than this one, but it felt good tonight. From the start, the ball was just bouncing to me. I tried to make a concerted effort of getting to the boards and helping out the big guys inside and getting second chance opportunities and the ball just happened to go to me."
(On looking towards March:)
"I think we came out and established ourselves from the beginning with the right amount of intensity and toughness on defense. As we've seen the last couple of years, the last team standing is the one that plays the best defense, so that's what we want to do."
Forward Festus Ezeli
(On coming into the game after a tough loss to Mississippi State:)
"After that game we were very disappointed because it was not even a failure of doing assignments, it was more a failure of effort. We just came out with intensity tonight and we said we weren't going to do that again, so that was good for us."
(On Tennessee's Jarnell Stokes:)
"He's a big boy, so that was their game. They walk you up the lane, so you try to take that away as much as possible."
(On the rivalry with Tennessee:)
"Each year you come in here and you learn a little bit about the tradition, so you kind of stick with it. It becomes a part of you. I'm a part of Vanderbilt, so that's part of me as well."
Guard John Jenkins
(On starting the game strong:)
"We got a great start. We had a lot of energy, a lot of passion. That first start got us the win almost because we came out so hard, it was easy for us to just keep going with it. We didn't have much of a let- down in the second half so that was good."
(On improving his defensive game:)
"I guess having more awareness. Part of my problem was I was kind of using it as an excuse, moving around so much, it was affecting my defense. I went to the USA team and I knew I wouldn't play unless I played defense. I kind of carried it back to here and so it's been working for me. I've been studying a lot of film on guys and just doing that."
(On Tennessee's Yemi Makanjuola's ejection from the game:)
"He got me pretty good, but he actually just apologized to me right before I came in here. There wasn't any hard feelings, I know how the game goes when emotions get hot."

I just realized that I have at least one random meaningless thought about every 20 seconds.
Recently I bought a pile of CLIF Chocolate Brownie Energy Bars for the B.O.B. & SHTF Storage - They look like somebody smashed a Brownie with their armpit and crossed that with a miniature mushy cow pie and then left it out in the Sun for 6 weeks and even starving raccoons wouldn't eat it.
Which would be fine with me if they tasted OK but, they suck and taste like mildly chocolate flavored decades old oatmeal mixed with coarse sand...so....don't buy them.

text: I don't think the issue is that a concerned parent is unable to find a particular toy. I think the concern raised by the petition is that a lot of people, including children, are influenced by the subtle -- and not-so-subtle -- messages that are sent by the way things are categorized by gender. We can say that girls like pink things and enjoy playing with toy kitchens, so it makes sense that toy kitchens are painted pink, are marketed to girls, and are listed in catalogs as "girls" toys. But there is a chicken-egg aspect of that statement. Do girls like pink things because they innately like pink? Or do they like pink things because, from infancy, they receive pink things, see other girls wearing pink, and are get messages from others that reinforce the idea that girls are supposed to like pink? Similarly, do girls play with toy kitchens because they innately like to cook or because they pick up clues from society that cooking is something acceptable for girls to do? And, no, there isn't going to be anyone with a firing squad shooting the person who buys a "boys" toy for a girl or vice versa, but the ways toys are classified do create a sense of what is "normal" and what isn't. So the boy who wants to play with a doll or with the kitchen is labeled at a young age as strange or, even worse, as gay. The girl who doesn't like pink and hates Barbies is considered unusual. Obviously, that may depend on where you live and the different viewpoints in your local community, but there are a lot of parts of the United States that still subscribe to very traditional gender stereotypes. Certainly, there are people who buck the system and refuse to conform to those strictures, but a lot of people -- especially children -- don't know how. Instead, they conform to the norms and find themselves feeling lost and confused. We hear a lot about bullying of gays and lesbian children and teens, but that is just one part of a much larger issue during childhood with children struggling with dealing with the sense of what is "normal" and what isn't. I think we tend to hear more about gays and lesbians because sexual orientation is something that is impossible to for many teens to suppress and it becomes a source of very overt bullying. However, I think children conform in a lot of other ways. When a girl wants to play with blocks with the boys is told that she should be having a tea party with the other girls, that sends a message about what is acceptable for girls versus boys. When a girl sees images of only boys playing with erector sets or toy science labs and only girls playing with dolls, it sends her the message that her role is to be a carer and nurturer, while boys are supposed to build and discover things. When the little girl is in a group with boys and girls, who is she going to generally play with? Other girls. And what is she going to generally play with? Toys that girls collectively consider acceptable for girls. So if girls collectively are being sent the message that Legos -- a toy that the author of the petition correctly points out is a very useful tool for helping children develop spatial awareness -- are a "Boys" toy, girls are not going to be willing to play with Legos because they may fear being teased. Certainly parents can do a lot to counteract those messages, but I think it is worth pointing out when our children are being sent these messages and raising concerns about how they reinforces gender stereotypes and myths. Everyone here seems to agree that there is no reason why nearly all of the Legos should be classified as "Boys" toys by Toys 'R' Us. So why do we accept that? Shouldn't we object to the fact that a person looking at the website for "Girls" outdoor toys won't even know that Toys 'R' Us sells a half-dozen different basketball hoops? Sure someone who knows they want to find a basketball hoop for a girl can go find one by searching for it, but that isn't the point. The point is that Toys 'R' Us is sending messages about what is and is not apprioprirate for girls and boys when there is no reason for it to do so. It could have a category for "toy appliances" that includes tools, lawn mowers and kitchens. Just have "bikes and tricycles." "Action figures" can include the ones they list for boys and the girls figures that, inexplicably, they have under beauty accessories. "Building sets" should include everything in one category. It shouldn't matter that the set has a samurai, an airplane, or Olivia's kitchen.

Cassandra Hanna scored a game-high 12 points and eighth-seeded Chatfield rallied in the fourth quarter to hold off ninth-seeded Fountain-Fort Carson, 35-33, on Tuesday night, Feb. 22 in the first round of the 5A state girls basketball tournament.
The Lady Chargers (10-14) trailed 25-24 entering the game's final eight minutes before advancing to play Monarch (20-3), the top seed in the Kaye Garms Region, in Friday's second round.
Kate Kurtenbach added eight points for Chatfield. The loss ended Fountain-Fort Carson's season with a 10-14 mark.

A walloping workout
DENVER — Aaron Norris, for at least two matches, certainly looked the part of a 215-pound state champion at last week's 5A state wrestling championships at the Pepsi Center He was pinning his opponents left and right. And not even a third-place finish at regionals could keep him from dreaming even bigger.
But despite the Chatfield senior's best efforts it wasn't to be.
Things were not looking good for the Chatfield Chargers midway through their state quarterfinal against Summit on Feb. 19 at the Edge Ice Arena.
The Chargers trailed 3-1 and had pulled starting goaltender Ryan Seltenreich in favor of Matt Smith. They were letting the Tigers dictate play and seemed a bit tired after a tough 4-3 overtime win over Bishop Machebeuf the night before.
But with 4 minutes, 34 seconds left in the second period, senior defenseman Carson Allen breathed life back into his team.
DENVER — Every match, every tournament Michael Vigil and Justin Hambleton made a conscious decision to honor their Dakota Ridge pride. The Chatfield wrestlers, who transferred to the team after the Eagles program was shut down for the season due to a lack of numbers, made it a point to wear a Dakota Ridge sock match in and match out. They weren't about to forget where they came from.
Alex Koop said that he tried to step up. But the 6-foot-3 Columbine junior did more than just try. He stepped up when the Rebels needed him most.
Koop came off the bench to score all eight of his points in the second half when leading scorer Jon Snow was knocked out of the game because of a head injury and Columbine ended an eight-year drought to Chatfield with a 60-55 road victory on Feb. 18.
"This is the best win of the season. It's Chatfield, it's a rivalry," Koop said. "I had to step up with Jon Snow out."
Kate Kurtenbach, make no bones about it, relishes the opportunity. The senior guard wouldn't have it any other way, being put in the position to close out a Chatfield victory. That's where she was on Feb. 18 in the host Lady Chargers' regular-season finale with rival Columbine.
With the Lady Rebels nipping away at what had been a Chatfield lead for most of the second half it was up to Kurtenbach to finish off the eventual 40-35 victory and she did.
Kourtney Cryder scored a game-high 17 points to lead three Dakota Ridge players in double figures as the host Eagles rolled to a 63-28 win over Columbine on Feb. 17.
Brooke Orcutt added 15 points and Courtney Rehl scored 12 for the Lady Eagles (17-6).
Kerin Genthe led Columbine with 10 points.
Dakota Ridge led 14-9 after one quarter and 33-17 at the break.
The win was the Lady Eagles' fifth in six games to close out the regular season.
Dakota Ridge also won earlier this season at Columbine, 53-19, on Jan. 5.
Jeffco Public Schools is considering making more staff cuts, charging for student transportation, and increasing fees for extracurricular activities in the wake of a proposed state budget that could reduce district revenue by $37 million.
Following the unveiling of Gov. John Hickenlooper's proposed budget on Feb. 15, which cuts $332 million statewide in K-12 funding, Jeffco began preparing budget recommendations to deal with the cuts. Among the effects, student-teacher ratios are expected to increase throughout the district.

Outlet wires in 1940's home are not color coded help.
So I am trying to install a GFCI outlet in where a 2 prong outlet was in the house I just bought. I made the mistake of not noting where the wires were previously installed before I took the wires off the old outlet as I soon found out all the wires are black. There are 2 pairs of wires. I have determined which wire is hot and have connected that to the brass "line" screw. I connected the other wire in that pair to the silver "line" screw. What I need to know is for the wires that should connect to the "load" terminals, is there a way I can tell which wire should go where or does it not matter for the "load" terminal? None of them of course have power. If there is no way of telling them apart, then is there a danger in just guessing and seeing if it works or will the outlet just not work if the wires attached to the load terminal are mismatched?
Thanks in advance, I have been having so much trouble answering this question. :yes:
You would need to go to the next device downstream amd test with power off and a continuity tester which one is hot and which one is neutral.
