Does DOW 795 ever cure, bond or dry?
As previously posted I surface installed new windows on my C&C 26. As suggested i used Dow 795 caulking. Now more then a week later this Dow stuff is still tacky and soft. I smeared a line of it between two scraps of left over pieces of 1/4" acrylic and several days later I was able to very easily slip them apart. It seems that this stuff has no more bonding strength than ordinary water. I am now very glad I also used double sided tape and some screws.
Re: Does DOW 795 ever cure, bond or dry?
Dow Corning® 795 Silicone Building Sealant is a one-part, cold-applied, non-sagging silicone material that cures to a medium modulus silicone rubber upon exposure to atmospheric moisture.
This seems like an odd way to cure and am not sure what the advantages are.
I'd be curious where you got the advice to use this. I'm not familiar with it and may have to redo some ports, hence my interest....
Re: Does DOW 795 ever cure, bond or dry?
I think that if you google search "Dow 795 sailboat " you will find much info.
Good to see you amigo I was literally thinking about you today amid thoughts of the window replacement issue
In regards to the windows I'm still scheduling when I am going to do mine- probably in early November before I leave for the islands
I have been looking at several options, further, curious how you wrestled with the aluminum framing, if you did damage any sections, & did you replace it and how!
I was going to put in a solar vent this week- one of the VERY knowledgeable old-timers from the marina suggested using GE silicone, perhaps this:
though I will ask him tomorrow- a remarkable attention to detail person, once mentioned to me he built custom boats during which the final phase involved lining up the slots on the Philips heads!
Curious about the 795 too as I remember some poster raving positive~ now I'm quite skeptical
Sure you could use some of our wonderful Florida weather for the next 2 weeks to help you dry out the product- several days of Blazing Sun... ignore the fact that were in the middle of a hurricane, yet you know what I mean
take care
Re: Does DOW 795 ever cure, bond or dry?
You got me interested so Googled some more. Here is some intelligent sounding advice:
Dow Corning 795 - Cruisers & Sailing Forums
Still funny that it only cures in atmospheric moisture. That seems to mean only the surface, but that may be the design while the interior of the bead stays soft until it gets exposed to moisture.....?
Re: .
Re: Does DOW 795 ever cure, bond or dry?
I resealed our pilothouse side windows with it (DC795) and it cured to a rubbery texture much like 3M 4000. No leaks, very happy with it. It is designed for all kinds of glazing, including high rise buildings so I'm not sure what is going on with yours but it doesn't sound right.
Re: Does DOW 795 ever cure, bond or dry?
I've used DC 795 on several occasions, including once where a window cracked and I had to replace it. At that time the 795 had already been in place for about 4 years.
I removed the screws and yes, I was able to 'pry' the window off, but it did stay in place initially. Some of the 795 stayed with the window acrylic, some stayed 'stuck' to the cabin side. The stuff stuck to the cabin side was easy to cleanly remove by getting a scraper underneath it, it peeled off like a rubber gasket. It was soft and pliable, but not wet.
To me this is an advantage.. imagine trying to get 4 year old 4200 or 5200 off easily. I don't mind using the screws to hold the window down, having two methods of fastening never hurts. I wouldn't ever rely strictly on its 'adhesive' properties for an application like this. An office building fixed glass panel is another thing altogether.
One other thought... the stuff definitely has a shelf life and the tubes have a 'best before' date stamped on them.. maybe you got an old batch.

Re: Does DOW 795 ever cure, bond or dry?
I'm going to slide this thread into a more appropriate forum.

CSL Drops Most in 16 Months as Baxter Cuts Profit Outlook on Health Reform
CSL Ltd., the world's second- biggest maker of treatments made from blood, fell the most in 21 months in Australian trading after its larger rival, Baxter International Inc., cut its 2010 earnings forecast.
CSL dropped 7.3 percent to A$33.94, the sharpest decline since July 22, 2008. The stock was the biggest loser on the benchmark S&P/ASX 200 Index. Baxter fell the most in seven years in New York trading yesterday after saying the U.S. health-care overhaul will trim full-year profit to between $3.92 and $4 a share, from its previous projection of as much as $4.28.
Baxter said Medicaid rebates and a change in taxes for retiree prescription drug benefits under the health-care law enacted in March will reduce earnings. The Deerfield, Illinois- based company also said plasma-product market growth in the U.S. will be weaker than previously anticipated. Melbourne-based CSL said it doesn't plan to change its full-year earnings forecast.
"We think the market's soft, but it's not as soft as the Baxter result suggests," Andrew Goodsall, an analyst with UBS AG in Sydney, said today. CSL, which gets almost 40 percent of sales from the U.S., will see full-year profit reduced by about 1 percent because of the increased rebates, Goodsall said.
Baxter and CSL derive products from human blood plasma, the watery liquid in which blood cells are suspended, to treat immune deficiency disorders, hemophilia, wounds and burns.
Price Overreaction
CSL's price drop is "an overreaction" to Baxter's results, said Don Williams, who helps manage about A$2 billion ($1.8 billion), including the Australian company's shares, at Platypus Asset Management Ltd. in Sydney. "In this particular industry, our assessment so far is that CSL is going to be able to perform a lot better than Baxter," he said. Williams said he's buying CSL shares.
CSL also said it completed a A$1.78 billion buyback of its stock that it undertook after U.S. regulators blocked its $3.1 billion bid for Talecris Biotherapeutics Holdings Corp. last year. About 25 million shares were traded today, 10 times the daily average for the past six months.
Separately, the company said it stopped distributing its seasonal flu vaccine for children in its home country after side effects were reported in some children in the state of Western Australia. CSL is working with the nation's drug regulator to investigate the cases, it said in an e-mailed statement today.

The beautiful and pregnant Kim Kardashian West had her baby shower at the fabulous Beverly Hill Hotel and according to reliable sources all of her closest friends were there to celebrate the new baby boy. Some top celebrity people came (including the Kardashian sistas) and "camped out" in cute mini-tents because the adorable theme of the expensive baby shower was Troop Beverly Hills = how clever!
Khloe Kardashian was present as well and it was a huge surprise to everyone! She hasn't left Lamar Odom's side since he was taken to the hospital after being found unconscious at a brothel in Las Vegas. Khloe missed Kimmy's 35th birthday due to staying by her estranged husband's side to take care of him through this sad ordeal. Khloe is reportedly also quitting Keeping Up With The Kardashians this season to make sure she helps Odom recuperate. What a woman!
Now back to Kim's details of the sweet baby shower. Everyone on the guest list was given Beverly Hill Hotel's matching blue and white striped pajamas to wear. Kim posed with her sisters in a hallmark moment for the camera in the attire. She also posed her naked prego belly for the camera and she looks absolutely terrific.
Of course, the social media queen posted lots of pictures to her new app and website. She also posted about her wonderful day on instagram stating: "We had the best brunch and, of course, finished it off with beignets and hot cocoa! It was the best, most child day ever with all of my closest friends. It couldn't have been a better day."
See pictures below of Kim's amazing baby shower:

This letter is in response to James O'Connor's Editor's Notebook column of Feb. 16 in which he compared the local Strand Theatre project to the successful Lyric theatre project in Swift Current, Sask.
Some further information should be provided to allow for an objective comparison.
The Lyric project was undertaken by a group of volunteers in 2005. By their own hard work — and without federal funding — they had the venue operational in 2006. By their continued hard work and local fundraising, they continued to operate and improve the theatre.
With that successful track record, combined with broad community support, they were able to present a strong business case for the further development and restoration of the facility. To that end they were successful in obtaining infrastructure spending.
The efforts of the Strand group in Brandon have been reported many times in this newspaper.
Instead of reporting the news fully, accurately and fairly, Mr. O'Connor often presents one-half of the story to sway public opinion.
I will continue to listen to the people of Brandon-Souris and not the Brandon Sun when it comes to where your tax dollars are spent.

We sell EPIRBs manufactured by GME from Australia and Ocean Signal from the UK. Both manufacturers offer units with integral GPS in Category I, automatic release and Category II, manual release models.
GME is setting the standard for reliable, cost effective EPIRBS worldwide. With their non-hazardous battery pack which can be replaced at a reasonable cost, they are easy to ship worldwide. We especially like the float free, automatic release housing that actually is user friendly when performing the required monthly self-tests. It also uses the Hammar hydrostatic release that is available in every port.
We import these units programmed for US flag vessels. If your vessel is registered elsewhere, we have the in house capability to reprogram a unit to meet the requirements of your flag state.
If you need to register your 406 MHz beacon our registration page will guide you through the process.
Our Tech Files section has several articles regarding EPIRB's should you need further help with registering or wondering what an old unit might be worth.
Read our thoughts on if you should purchase an EPIRB or PLB for your boat (this is not relevant for shore based uses).
April 1, 2016: EPIRBs are now considered Hazardous Material for all air shipments. They are required to ship on cargo aircraft so Priority Mail is not an option.

Hot Wire My 244GL Volvo
My old Volvo seems to have finally died. The ignition switch doesn't work. The key goes round smoothly without the 'lumps' you usually feel as it goes. And nothing happens. No starter operates, no lights come on.
So I need to hotwire it to be able to move it somewhere for disposal or wrecking.
So I cut the wires under the switch. Three fat ones and two thin ones.
I had intended to join two fat wires until I found which pair would light up the panel. Then I was going to find which remaining wire would fire the starter motor if I brushed it against the already joined pair.
But when I put the battery back in I found the car was 'beeping' like it does when there's a door open (there was a door open) or seatbelt undone.
so this means there's already a circuit alive. But how? with all the wires cut?
I'm confused and I always freeze when I'm confused, like a rabbit in the headlights....
Can anyone help me... what should I do to complete this 'hotwiring'?
By the way... the steering lock doesn't seem to be operating, so that's good.
Looks like the ignition is already on, actually, doesn't it? And just the starter motor circuit not working........
But I put it to those with more understanding and experience than myself.... (I have virtually none of either)
ab :)
You shouldn't have done the Cutting...
I suggest you call a wrecking yard,... They have trucks, Just for this purpose...
'ell,... they might even throw ya a few bucks for it....
You're right. I do watch too much t.v. More and more I come to believe ANY t.v. is too much.
But why do you say it? Is it that cars cannot be 'hotwired' in this manner for some reason? 'You shouldn't have done the cutting' seems to suggest so.
If so, what reason?
What have I done? How can I fix it?
In this country - or this part of it at least - car wreckers give you nothing for a car, they charge you to pick it up, generally you get it there yourself. One would get more money from scrap metal merchants.
No truck can get into my backyard to get this car. It died in the garage. We managed to push it back out, just, and then forward down the slope to clear the driveway and it finished up facing the back fence.
Here's my Picasa pic of it: pic of car
We need it out of there. Under its own steam would be best and now after a week of trying to find information and after learning what I have after doing what I have the question has become interesting in its own right.
Seems simple enough to me, to qualified people: join this and this to make it alive, join this to start it. Either that or something like "You've fried the super-duper electronic magic gizmo and now the car can't run without a new one'
Which I think is unlikely.
Any help, anyone?
It is somewhat of a hook this wire there, 'n jump a wire here...
but Hot-wirin' a motor is done from under the hood,.... Not the dash....
Yes, I'm using the term loosely, obviously.
I'm talking about taking the ignition switch out of the loop because I must, because it is broken. That's what I set off talking about.
But the main thing is to move the car. If there's a quick easy way to do from under the hood then - how?
And, yes, it is late enough to have fuel injection. It is 1982 which was the first Volvo with fuel injection, I've been told.

Well, I don't know about volvo, but if you have a gm car and the key and can get the hood up, you can start it easily. I had a bad ignition switch and used this method for a couple of months. Turn the key to 'run' open the hood and put a wire on the solenoid and then the positive terminal of the battery.
Varoom, the car will start because you've bypassed the ignition switch and put voltage straight to the solenoid.
Oh, make sure the car is in park! You are also by passing the neutral safety switch, so the car will start even if it's in gear!
You could torch it in the prcess of tryimg to fix it. Claim it.
I had to look up 'macguyver', it is not a term you hear about in aus.
No, I'm certainly no 'macguyver' - but I don't see where that matters, I'm not trying to do anything 'macguyver-ish'.
I just want to join up some wires in the way the switch they once went into did.
so I think there's something wrong here - I'm in the wrong forum, right?
No one here is an auto electrician, right? Probably no one is even an electrician..
If anyone knows where I might find the right forum to ask, please tell me.
As for buying an ignition, etc., I should have said at the outset that
. they're almost unobtainable
. they're too expensive
. they're far too difficult to put in
. the car's destined never to drive on the highway again... not worth spending on..
You wiil probaly need three. Ignition power and a moentary strike on the starter.
This sounds very encouraging. It is a Volvo 244GL sedan made in 1982 in Sweden.
I didn't see bigplanz post about solenoid and battery before... I might try that.
But the ignition switch is broken.. I can't 'turn the key to run'.
Unless it is already 'on' because of that 'beep' 'beep'.
But there's no lights....
So I don't know...
I would still very much like to know what to do with these cut wires under the dash now and ianc435 sounds hopefull. :)
If they get joined up right so's I can start it from inside the car whenever I like (have to wire in some kind of pushbutton switch I guess for a 'starter') then I can turn the engine over from time to time, move it out so's I can cut the grass under it, put it back, while I'm waiting to see if I send it away or do I 'wreck it', pull bits off and sell them..
Here's a pic of what we call here the 'compliance plate' with all details of manufacture, body, etc.. Compliance Plate

I went to the Autozone web site, and a volvo starter looks pretty much like a GM starter. There is a starter, and attached to it a solenoid. There are two wires connected to the solenoid, a fat one and a thin one. The fat one goes directly to the battery. The thin one is the ignition switch wire. When you turn the switch, if completes the circuit and allows 12v, low amps to go to the solenoid. The solenoid does two things. It pushes the pinion gear of the starter up onto the flywheel and it closes two big heavy amp contacts inside the starter, thus allowing high amp, 12V current to flow from the battery to the starter motor. The car then starts (we hope). When you release the ingition switch, the ignition switch opens, but the car stays in 'run'. This cuts voltage to the solenoid, opens the heavy amp contacts and the pinion gear retracts from the fly wheel. Simple.
If you connect 12V straight to the thin wire contact on the solenoid, the car should start (assuming it's in 'run). If nothing else, the starter will come on and try to start the car.
Agian this is gm specific, but since the volvo starter looks exactly like mine, give it a try. MAKE SURE THE CAR IS IN PARK!!! You will also be bypassing the neutral safety switch, so the car will start even if it is in gear. Good luck!
Take a look in front of your battery. You are looking for a small buss bar that probably has a cover on it. it should have three terminals, two bigger one's, and a smaller one with a purple wire. Take a small jumper wire and hit one of the bigger wires to the purple wire post. this should bypass your Neut and ignition switches and crank the motor. make sure your in N or P

Sheriff's effort
To the Editor,
As I watched the news on KTVZ a few weeks ago and heard more about Aaron Saldana, his disappearance and then recovery of his body, I was struck by Jack Jones' comments about the part the sheriff's office played in this tragedy. After Aaron was found, Mr. Jones' only response was "no comment." But when approached by KTVZ at a store in Metolius he made a rather misleading statement about the situation. He was very forthright about how the sheriff's department had done everything they could do to find this young man.
There seems to be a rather large gap in his comments and reality. He stated that the sheriff's department had drained the irrigation canals and done an air and ground search, and as a footnote to his comments, he added that the family had also made "efforts."
The truth of the matter is this frantic, grief-stricken family had asked the sheriff, and others in this department, for assistance from the very first and were met with complacency and an uncaring and unkind attitude. When Sheriff Jones was asked to drain the canals he commented that this would make the farmers angry and he didn't or wouldn't do it. When he was asked for an air and ground search he declined, saying Aaron was "acting irresponsibly and he would come home when he was good and ready." When he was asked to have search dogs come in, he said there were none in the vicinity, the closest being Portland. It wasn't like it was a needle in a haystack. The family had gotten several calls from Aaron in a short period of time and T-Mobile could narrow it down to a three-mile radius. Families with loved ones do not just give up. Without Mr. Jones' or Mr. Atkins' help, the family found what help they could. A farmer organized a ground search, a pilot volunteered an air search, a friend contacted the irrigation district and the canal was drained, all of this through graciousness of neighbors, friends and family. When a family member called Portland about the search dogs, they were told the nearest search dogs were in Deschutes County -- something that was not told to them by the sheriff or his department. Was this a lack of knowledge or a resistance to aiding the family? Either way it shows a profound lack of competency.
The family was met with frustration and negativity of the worst kind in a time no family should have to endure, let alone beg and plead for assistance that should have been available and offered in a timely manner as it should be from all our public servants. I am sure Mr. Jones will have every excuse to justify the way Aaron's disappearance was handled by them, but there is no excuse or justification for the comments made to Aaron's family. Among other things, they were told Aaron would be found when "they see birds circling" and that he had put the word out to farmers "not to chop up a body when they went out with their combines." This young man had been having some mental difficulties in the last year. This should have been understood, approached, and dealt with the same way as when someone has gone missing that has diabetes and needs insulin. The sheriff's department was made aware of Aaron's condition and yet there was no compassion to be found. Anyone who has children, no matter their age or their health problems, would find the actions shown by our officials extremely offensive and inhumane.
An autopsy was requested by the family after Aaron was found. Initially they were told this was not possible because there were only skeletal remains. Only after a local physician was told of the circumstances in which Aaron was found was an autopsy ordered and completed.
Empathy is described as "your pain in my heart." Laws are made to guide and direct you but they can never replace human caring and concern. As I heard recently, "Does someone else's life matter as much as our own, if we truly believe this then we will act accordingly". Recently "The T.O.R.C.H." publication to raise awareness about domestic violence was in our local newspaper. The sheriff's office is part of the task force to rid our community of this escalating problem. Mr. Jones may want to study this publication and apply the timely information, beginning with the first page on "What Kind of a Community Do You Envision." A major part of domestic violence is emotional and psychological abuse and certainly the treatment the Saldanas received via Mr. Jones would be classified as such. Domestic can refer to family, county or country. As has been said, domestic violence has many forms and faces.
Aaron's family's loss is beyond comprehension. He has left a void in our world, and a void in his family's heart that can never be filled.
Kind, consoling words and every effort imaginable should have been offered up without hesitation, as we have seen many times in various places. Instead, 87 days of torment and complacency, were given by those in authority. We should all be concerned about the treatment this family endured. Our public officials should be held accountable and at the very least apologize for their total lack of compassion and misjudgment. Tragedy strikes at random and shows no favorites. If your family happens to be next in line, how would you like to be treated?
Robert Boffin

How do I make my chest armor, shoulders, and knees. I realloy want to begin on my armor.
How do I make my chest armor, shoulders, and knees. I realloy want to begin on my armor.
First step: what do you want to make it out of (what material?) I would definitely take a look at some of the threads in this section because multiple people have made their own armor. Check out how they did it.
I was going to make out of aluminum.
Start here http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showthread.php?t=7825
Use the search button and put in templet or blueprint.
Advice not aluminum. Been down that side it is a lot of work and ends up badly. search engine it will help a lot.
the what should i make it out of??
sintra? fiberglass? if u dig out old thread in "armor" section, u'll find lotsa information...
One very inexpensive and easy way to make it is to buy a couple of oval, household trashcans from someplace such as Walmart. that's what I have done for my low budget boba.
Do a search for "Trashcan Armor" and you will find a great thread about doing it this way.
Also, search for "armor template" and you will find WizardOfFlight's templates .. they're an invaluable resource!
Lizard there is a string on this forum that sells an inexpensive set of already made chest armor and knees made from sintra for about $40.00. Good starting point, plus you could get a lot of expertise practicing painting, layering ,shaping, dent placement, dremel skills and everything else about costuming by saving and purchasing same. You might consider developing the detailing skills, prior to the manufacturing skills first.
Well since you have no money Lizard, I'd suggest cardboard or trashcans or anything that is light and will hold paint. Whatever materials you can get for FREE
How can I make then dents on my armor??
depends on what you make it out of. if plastic, use a lighter, heat on the back side of the plastic. then with a sharpie or some other oblject with the right size and shape push the plastic in. Just don't touch the plastic with the lighter. you want to soften it, not melt it.
If it's made of plastic, just heat it with hot water or a heat gun and use the back of a screwdriver to make the dents.
A lighter will give one point for damage it's better to go the lighter route the heat gun and hot water is better for forming the general shape of the armor
I heated up my Sintra and used the back of a Steak Knife! lol Sounds funny, but it worked.
Yup. Go play with lighters and steak knives, kid.
Good idea!
i make mando armor out of aluminum all the time and it always turns out great

Mandalore+ is Lizard now talking to himself, trying to promote his aluminum armor sale. If not let us see this great aluminum armor Mandalore+
I asked for more info from +mandalore+ about a month ago now. So far no pics just an excuse.
I think some puppetry is afoot......

On Thursday, Kyle Busch blamed Tony Stewart for the last-lap wreck at Daytona last weekend that caused Busch to slam the outside wall before two collisions with other cars.
Busch said Stewart dumped him.
No, he didn't. Busch tried to block when he didn't have room.
Busch was leading as they headed to the checkered flag, but Stewart had the front of his car up past Busch's right rear quarter panel.
It's simple physics. You can't block the driver behind you if that driver already has his beside your car.
Busch made a wild move to block, and he paid the price.
You don't have to take my word for it. Ask Jeff Gordon.
"I would put more blame on the guy leading who was blocking than the guy who was behind," Gordon said. "It's not getting dumped if the guy got a fender inside you and you turn. You've got spotters. If someone is half an inch inside you, you expect to know it because of your spotters."
Kasey Kahne agrees.
"That's a long way from a dump in my mind," Kahne said. "They both were battling for the win. I certainly would not say he got dumped.
"Tony made a great move to get to Kyle's outside. To me it looked like [Stewart] was going to side draft off him to the line, but Kyle turned right.''
Kahne ended up slamming into the back of Busch's car, causing Busch's No. 18 Toyota to shoot up in the air from the back. Busch also got T-boned by Joey Logano.
Gordon wasn't surprised about any of it.
"As a competitor you get so focused on how to get to the finish line first and what we can do to win,'' Gordon said. "Even though you know you're blocking and shouldn't be, you still do it.
"We've gotten so comfortable as drivers out there, believing all we've got to do block all the way to the finish line and we'll finish first. That worked in the past, but it's not working anymore."
Busch learned that lesson the hard way.
Stewart didn't dump you, Kyle. You dumped yourself.

Cyprus Parliament set to reject tax on bank deposits
Cyprus's Parliament was set to reject a divisive tax on bank deposits in a vote on Tuesday.
Nicosia: Cyprus's Parliament was set to reject a divisive tax on bank deposits in a vote on Tuesday, pushing the island closer to a debt default and banking collapse.
A weekend announcement that Cyprus would break with previous practice and impose a levy on bank accounts as part of a 10 billion euro EU bailout prompted turmoil on European financial markets on Monday.
Cypriot and euro zone officials have sought to soften the initially proposed levy of 6.75 per cent on depositors of up to 100,000 euros and 9.9 per cent above 100,000 to ease the burden on small savers.
But passage of the bill in the 56-member chamber, where no party has a majority, was unlikely. The House of Representatives was expected to meet at 1600 GMT.
"It looks like it won't pass," Cypriot government spokesman Christos Stylianides told state radio. Tuesday's vote, originally planned for Sunday, has been postponed twice already. Three parties have said outright they will not support the tax, while a fourth, in the co-governing coalition, said it cannot support it as it stands either.
Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades asked the EU for more aid during a telephone conversation with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Monday, with a second call likely on Tuesday. Stylianides said Anastasiades may also speak to Vladimir Putin, the Russian president.
The tax will batter not only Cypriots, but thousands of Europeans and Russians with business interests on the island. Putin on Monday described it as "unfair, unprofessional and dangerous."
Cypriot finance minister Michael Sarris was due to hold meetings in Moscow on Wednesday. Stunned islanders emptied cash machines over the weekend and banks are to remain shut on Tuesday and Wednesday to avoid a bank run. Hundreds of protesters rallied outside parliament on Monday, honking horns and holding banners saying "We are not your guinea pigs!"
"If they vote for this tax they will face the fury of the people," said Markos Economou, a 47-year-old physics teacher and father of two. "The banks and the politicians should pay for this mess, not the people."
Seeking to overcome divisions within the government's own ranks, ministers were scrambling on Monday to ease the pain for small savers by tilting more of the tax towards those with deposits greater than 100,000 euros.
Euro zone finance ministers were in favour of imposing a 15.6 percent levy on deposits of above 100,000 euros to help recapitalise Cyprus' financial sector while sparing depositors up to that level, officials told Reuters.
It was not clear what version of the levy would eventually be voted on in Cyprus. The government maintains that Cyprus has no choice but to accept the bailout with the levy, or go bankrupt.
While Brussels has emphasised that the measure is a one-off for a country that accounts for just 0.2 percent of European output, fears have grown that savers in other, larger European countries will be spurred to withdraw funds.
"If you're a small depositor in Cyprus you'll tell yourself that it would have been better to keep your money under the carpet than in a bank," said a French bank executive who declined to be named.
"And if you're a Greek, a Spaniard or an Italian, well, you'll tell yourself that you might be next."

At Home, Winter 2007
Many of Steamboat's mountain homes are noteworthy for massive wooden beams, sensitive architecture and grand views of the Rockies. But often it's the attention to detail that sets a home apart.
Singular design elements like a Pete Schroeder chandelier - custom crafted in steel with antique flair and a rich patina of rust - can appeal to the senses the most.
The Yampa Valley is home to a growing number of artisans, such as Schroeder, who are carving out a healthy niche serving the booming building trades.
"Pete has an organized, methodical mind that helps him patiently create these things," said Gary Cogswell, owner of Cogswell Construction. "At the same time, he's really artistic. He's also patient and gentle with my clients."
Contractors and interior designers rely heavily on construction artisans to meet their clients' expectations. Couples who build $4 million homes want custom fixtures that evoke the rustic surroundings.
Craftsmen such as Schroeder are more than happy to help. For one client, Schroeder built a massive chandelier designed to function as a hangar for dozens of historic branding irons. He's often called upon to fabricate smaller, one-of-a-kind light fixtures, and one of his most used pieces is a steel plate to support stonework surrounding a fireplace. His high level of craft is revealed in the doors that finish the fireplace - one Schroeder creation features aspen branches and leaves. Each leaf was hand-cut from steel and is detailed right down to individual veins.
Schroeder was born to work with metal. His father, Peter, was born in 1902 in Cologne, Germany. The younger Pete grew up in McHenry, Ill., where his father operated a metal shop in a small farmstead several miles outside town.
"As early as 4 or 5 years old, I became fascinated with hanging around the shop," Schroeder recalled. "By the time I was 6, I was looked on as a nuisance, so I began exploring the surrounding fields and woods. If I ever wanted to hide, I just headed for the cornfield. I couldn't get lost, but my mother could never find me."
The formative years he spent rambling the farm country of Northern Illinois gave him an enduring love for hunting that persists to this day. He still hand loads his own shotgun shells and has a collection of old cartridge boxes he keeps in a glass breakfront and prizes for their retro artwork.
Schroeder eventually became a commercial pilot, flying freight out of Gunnison, Aspen and Riverton, Wyo., before moving to Steamboat. After resuming his flying career here, he tried his hand and at real estate and property management in the early '70s. Ultimately, he returned to the fascination with metal work that he developed as a child.
Now in his 60s, Schroeder is a congenial man who surrounds himself with antiques. Near his shop is a rusty sign advertising Oliver tractors, a two-wheeled cart, wooden skis and a flock of waterfowl decoys.
"I've known him to go to various yard sales to rummage for the antiques he uses in his projects," Cogswell said. "And he's wide ranging. If he doesn't have the wagon wheel or antlers he needs to complete a project, he'll go to other states to find them. I've known him for years to be able to do these things."
His shop houses a massive anvil that is native to Routt County, welding equipment, a forge and a plasma cutter.
Schroeder says he learned the basics of his craft from his father but acquired most of the skills he puts to work today through experimentation.
The core of his work involves conceptualizing a custom piece and experimenting until he finds the best way to achieve the homeowner's vision.
"Sometimes people bring me images from magazines, other times I just have a conversation with a designer like Lynne Bier. She gestures a lot with her hands. She'll say, 'I want something this big,' and I go from there."
Schroeder typically insists that the client visit the shop to give a project his or her blessing before he invests more time in it.
Rifling through a portfolio of digital prints of past projects, Schroeder points out the many custom fireplace doors he has built for luxury homes in rural subdivisions such as Strawberry Park and Lake Catamount. His quiet pride in the work is evident.
For second-home owners, the opportunity to work with personalities such as Schroeder and incorporate their creative touch into their new homes can yield unanticipated benefits.
"It is part of the connection our clients feel to the community," Cogswell said. "They take satisfaction in supporting the artisans, and they love to tell the stories" of how some of the most attractive elements in their home were conceived and built by a local craftsperson.

Double Major Option
School districts in Rhode Island and across the country prefer to hire teacher candidates that have student teaching experience and certification in both Health Education and Physical Education. The Health and Physical Education department at Rhode Island College has created an option of combining two single majors, Health Education and Physical Education, into a double major option. The B. S. in Health and Physical Education is a very popular program! Teacher candidates can earn a B. S. in bothdisciplines in five years or less! This uniquely designed program offers courses in health content, motor and skill development, physical education skills, health skills and more. Teacher candidates develop their pedagogical skills through a variety of practica and student teaching at the primary level and secondary level in both disciplines. Teacher candidates interact with school children of all ages and abilities in over a dozen different courses during the program, starting in their first year at RIC and continuing throughout the program, thus providing teacher candidates with authentic learning early and often. Rhode Island Initial Teacher Certification is earned in both disciplines. The RIC HPE program is a leader in the field of HPE teacher preparation.

When it comes to complex business relationships, there are no better poster children than Apple and Samsung. Now Samsung wants to up the ante in their ongoing rivalry with a massive building expansion right in Apple's Silicon Valley backyard.
There is no getting around the fact that Samsung and Apple have one of the most complex relationships in the tech world. While Apple may be looking to change this, the fact is that Samsung is one of the largest suppliers of components used in Apple products, and the legal battles between the two tech-giants will continue regardless of the goods exchanged.
Well, it turns out that Samsung has decided that they need to step up their game against their rival, albeit, in a passive aggressive way. Already the company has opened up a new innovation center in Menlo Park, planning a research and development lab in San Jose, and is working on opening up a startup incubator in Palo Alto, but that apparently isn't good enough.
In a move to compete with Apple's proposed spaceship-like campus, Samsung is going to build a massive semiconductor campus with a distinctive design as well. Samsung claims that its Silicon Valley expansions are needed in order to bring more entrepreneurial DNA into the company so that it can move from being an innovation leader instead of a follower.
Samsung's chief strategy officer Young Sohn believes the company needs to do this in Silicon Valley because it is the center of disruptive forces and he wants the company to be a part of those disruptions.
In order to make that shift, the company wants to get rid of the insular culture that Samsung has been focusing to develop most of its technologies and products internally. To do this, Samsung is partnering and investing with startups, supporting other innovators, and being a more active buyer of other companies.
Sohn also says that much of the company's innovation is currently done in Korea, but he believes that they need to reach out to global hot spots and how Samsung taps into global innovation will dictate their success.
The new semiconductor campus will cost Samsung $300 million and sport an open-air design meant to rival both Apple and Facebook's.

Former Red Sox rival Kevin Youkilis officially joined the New York Yankees on Friday when he signed a one-year contract to fill a void left by the absence of Alex Rodriguez, the American League team said.
The three-time All-Star, 33, will serve as the starting third baseman with slugger Rodriguez expected to be sidelined until midseason after having surgery on his left hip.
The deal for Youkilis, a career .283 hitter, will pay the infielder $12 million, according to media reports.
Youkilis, who has played all but 80 games of his nine-year major league career for Boston, batted a combined .235 last season with 19 home runs and 60 runs batted in in 122 games for Boston and the Chicago White Sox, to whom he was traded in late June.
Rodriguez told reporters at a recent charity event in Miami that Youkilis would be a good addition to the Yankees' lineup.
"Youk has always been a tough out," he said. "He's a tough player, a guy that's a winning player."
With Youkilis's deal finalized, the Yankees were working to finalize a two-year contract with Japanese outfielder Ichiro Suzuki.
Acquired by the Yankees in July from the Mariners, Ichiro thrived in New York, batting .322 with five homers, 27 RBIs and 14 stolen bases in 67 games and provided a late-season spark that helped the club win the American League East title.
Overall last season, Ichiro batted .283 with nine homers, 55 RBIs and 29 stolen bases.
It was believed New York was nearing agreement on a two-year deal that would present Ichiro a chance to reach the 3,000-hit mark with the Yankees.
Ichiro, a career .322 hitter, has amassed 2,606 hits in the major leagues since coming to the Mariners from Japan in 2001.

Yamaha - Bluetooth compliant digital sound projector
Yamaha is going to release the Bluetooth compliant digital sound projector "YSP-1400" in mid-October. It will be sold at a reasonable price of around ¥40,000.
8 beam speakers and a built-in sub-woofer make it possible for "YSP-1400" to play alive 5.1 channel surround sound. It has a slim body so that it won't get in the way of the TV screen when you place it just in front. In addition to that, because it applies the technology that sends the remote control signal over its backside, you will not have trouble with operating the remote control even when you have a TV that has the light receiving section on its lower level.
By installing the free dedicated application "HOME THEATER CONTROLLER" to your smartphone or tablet, you can use it as a remote control of "YSP-1400".
Maximum output: 76W (2W×8+30W×2)
Size: 1,000W×96H×141D
Weight: 4.3kg

It's no secret that we've done our fair share of traveling so far this summer. If your family still has some fun trips coming up – whether by car or by plane – below are some snacks that we think are great and easy to take along. Even if you just can't (or won't) stick to a real food diet once you get to your destination, I think it's a good idea to bring some items for the trip there and even to supplement meals once you arrive. What good is a vacation if you feel sluggish (or even sick) from some not-so-great airplane or gas station food? And yes, you can take your own food and empty water bottle through airport security, provided you follow TSA guidelines for anything considered a liquid.*
- Homemade Trail Mix or Granola
Trail mix is easy enough – just mix together a variety of nuts, seeds, and even dried fruit then divide up into little baggies or reusable containers. Or alternatively bag up some yummy homemade granola cereal that you can just eat dry out of your hand. These options can be an especially filling snack for taking up such little space.
- Simple Store Bought Fruit & Nut Bars (or homemade!)
For the store bought versions be sure to check the ingredients for a short list of items you are familiar with and would cook with at home. We personally like Lara Bars, Kit's Organic and Raw Crunch. (Tip use coupon code "100DAYS" for 15% off your online Raw Crunch purchase.) And yes it's extra work, but I promise the homemade version of dried fruit and nut bars are even better than you could imagine :)
- Whole-Grain Muffins
With so many recipe choices from pumpkin to zucchini to berries to banana nut to cornbread…what's not to love? You can basically bake any "quick bread" loaf in muffin cups!
- Apples or Bananas (with our without an individual packet of peanut butter)
Apples and bananas by themselves are good, but let's face it – (if you don't have an allergy) they are even better topped with peanut or another type of nut butter. Either way though you'll be light years above a gas station snack with this one.
- Frozen Peas
One of the great things about frozen peas – aside from the fact that it's a veggie my daughters both enjoy – is that if you pack them frozen they can act as sort of a temporary ice pack for any other perishables you decide to take along.
- Washed, Peeled, and Sliced Veggies like Carrots, Cucumbers and/or Celery
For a road trip pack your fresh veggies (and other goodies) in a divided lunch container with hummus or homemade dip like ranch or tzatziki – yum!
- Organic Popcorn
Make your own "homemade" popcorn in a brown paper lunch bag without having to resort to those pre-made bags full of additives and chemicals.
- Dried Fruit or Homemade Fruit Leathers
This is another one of those categories where there are SO many choices…raisins, dried apple rings, dried apricots, dried cranberries, banana "chips," and any flavor of fruit leather you can imagine. For the store bought variety look at the ingredients to make sure they don't contain added sugar.
- Cherry Tomatoes or Grapes
Packaged into the perfect bite-size by nature, these are two incredibly convenient whole foods to take on the road. When it comes to tomatoes Sun Gold cherries are my all time favorite, but a little baggie of any home grown – or locally grown – variety will do.
- Whole-Grain Crackers or Brown Rice Cakes
This snack could easily complement many of the snacks mentioned above…you can make your own Easy Cheesy Crackers or for store bought our favorite brand is "ak-mak." Brown rice cakes are another whole grain alternative to crackers – also good with one of those little nut butter packets. :)
Also, don't forget to bring plenty of water along as well. If you will be flying just keep your reusable water bottle empty until you pass through security and then fill up on the other side. Please share your favorite "real food" travel snacks in the comments below!
* You can take solid foods through security, but according to the TSA website, any creamy dips, spreads, or other liquids must be placed in containers 3.4 oz or smaller and placed in a quart clear sized plastic bag. This includes foods such as jelly, peanut butter, spreadable cheeses, sauces, salad dressing, etc.

The 23-year-old, who has already released four albums - including last year's Red which produced hits We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, I Knew You Were Trouble, and 22 - plays Vector on Friday, November 29, with more shows sure to be announced.
It's likely she could equal, if not surpass, her run of three shows last year considering Red has already sold more than 5.4 million copies worldwide since being released in October.
Although her 2008 album Fearless is her biggest seller (with nine million copies sold it made her a household name), Red has potential to come close.
And with attendances at concerts on the start of the North American leg of The Red Tour totalling anywhere from 12,000 to 50,000, it seems Swift is just as big as ever.
When she last played here her sumptuous stage show was one of the most elaborate to be held at Vector, with gilded balconies and staircases, aerial artists, a 10-piece band and dancers.
If reports of her latest tour are anything to go by then expect another spectacle. Edge radio host Dominic Harvey went to Detroit to interview Swift and watch her sold-out show, which was attended by 50,000 fans.
"It's big, with multiple costume changes, 15 dancers, a tight band, fireworks, confetti cannons and some of the best backdrops you'll ever see," he said.
The set-list on the latest tour is made up mostly of songs from Red, including an extended dubstep jam of I Knew You Were Trouble, but with fan favourites and hits such as Mean, You Belong With Me and Love Story.
Tickets go on sale Tuesday, May 21 from Ticketmaster.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Tuesday he had agreed to work with Israeli and Palestinian leaders to boost economic growth in the occupied West Bank as he seeks ways to revive Middle East peace talks.
Speaking after a three-day visit to the region, during which he met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Kerry told reporters he would provide full details of the economic plans next week.
"We agreed among us … that we are going to engage in new efforts, very specific efforts, to promote economic development … and to remove some of the bottlenecks and barriers that exist with respect to commerce in the West Bank," he said.
"We intend to try to create the conditions for peace so that we can resume negotiations between the parties in a clear and precise, predetermined manner," he said at Tel Aviv airport.
Kerry, who flew on to London for a meeting of G8 foreign ministers, was on his third visit to the region in less than three weeks, a mediation effort spurred by U.S. President Barack Obama's trip to Israel and the West Bank last month.
But neither man has put forward any new initiative to encourage a return to negotiations that collapsed in 2010 in a dispute over Israeli settlement-building in the West Bank, which Palestinians fear will deny them a viable state.
"Economic growth will help us to be able to provide a climate, if you will, an atmosphere with in which people have greater confidence about moving forward," Kerry said.
"But I want to emphasise, and I emphasise this very strongly, this is not in lieu of or an alternative to the political track. It is not a substitute. The political track remains the primary focus."
A World Bank report published last month said that Israel's West Bank checkpoints and restrictions inflicted long-term damage on Palestinians' ability to compete in the global market.
Israel cites security concerns for those restrictions in the territory, which it captured along with East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip in the 1967 Middle East war. Palestinians seek to establish a state in those areas.
"With respect to the economic plans … I will be very specific next week," Kerry said. "We will have a Washington meeting and you all will have a chance to see this fleshed out in full."
With Kerry at his side before talks earlier in the day in Jerusalem, Netanyahu told reporters that Israel wanted to "make a serious effort" to end the conflict with the Palestinians.
"This has economic components, and we welcome any initiatives that you and others will bring forward in this regard," Netanyahu said.
"But it also has a political component, political discussions that will address a myriad of issues. Foremost in our minds are questions of recognition and security," he said.
Netanyahu was referring to his demand that Palestinians recognise Israel as the Jewish state, a step they fear could compromise any right of return of Palestinian refugees, as well as harming the status of Israel's 20 percent Arab minority.
Nabil Abu Rdeineh, a spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, said any efforts to bring about economic improvement must occur in tandem with political moves.
"Palestinian economic development is important - we have plans on how to achieve it - but this isn't an alternative to the political track," Abu Rdeineh said.

st: How to know how a global macro was generated: -smr- as an example

st: How to know how a global macro was generated: -smr- as an example
Thu, 11 Dec 2008 17:34:58 -0200 (BRST)
Dear all,
Not rarely I almost drive myself crazy because several Stata commands fail
to provide info about the formulations they use to compute
variances/standard errors in their calculations.
I have already claimed that most Stata packages should provide references
on their formulae/and or to point out where we can get detailed info on
the methods implemented.
When no reference is given, I usually open the code and see how it was
calculated, trying to find ou in textbooks similar formulations.
However, in the case of the -smrby- command, which calculates the ratio of
OBSERVED/EXPECTED counts and its confidence intervals, I could not figure
out how the global macros S_1 and S_2 were computed.
Once you can rapidly take a look on the code of the -smr- command, I did
not paste the whole code here for simplicity.
Specifically, I am interested in the following lines:
if _rc==0 {
_crccip `o' `level'
local l=100*($S_1/`e')
local u=100*($S_2/`e')
local r=100*(`o'/`e')
local emark ""
I will be really grateful for any tip on how both $S_1 and $S_2 were
All the best,
Tiago Pereira

- - New Signature Challenge Contest **Huge Prize** CHANGES MADE** (http://www.mmaforum.com/graphics-showroom/48849-new-signature-challenge-contest-huge-prize-changes-made.html)
New Signature Challenge Contest **Huge Prize** CHANGES MADE**
Well time for the new contest to begin,
If you have a question ask because all rules must be strictly followed.
1. Everybody will start with a single fighter render on a transparent background. Everyone will use the render supplied and it cannot be repostioned. (if a background copy of the render is used for blending purposes a slight movement is acceptable.)
2. The signature may not be resized, you must use it exactly as supplied.
3. Any effects you want to use are ok,
4, No further fighter pics can be used in the signature, a background photo is ok as long as it does NOT contain a fighter pic.
5. You must place the text requirements inside the sig. but this can be done as you see fit.
If your unsure about anything dont be afraid to ask.
Render to be used (Only one that is acceptable)
http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...ender2copy.png Remember it must be used exactly as provided, placement and size will be the same on all signatures in the contest.
Text Requirements:
Title: Rashad Evans
SubText: Sugar
(Can be written as Sugar Rashad Evans)
Contest begins immediatly but if possible signatures should not be posted until Friday.
Contest will Close one week from today and Voting will go up next Monday.
PRIZE is 82000 Points, and a big thank you goes out to CornBread, NikoCC, MJB23 and UFCFAN33 for helping me contribute to the prizepool.
GOOD LUCK To Everyone.
If you sign up below I will try to make sure your entry gets in if its a little late.
I have given into peer pressure.
im in ....even though i thought we got to pick from the ones MJ posted and could put any text that we wanted. i had already made one with a different pic and different text....ill have to redo one....we HAVE to put sugar?
Im gonna say yes, the reason that everyone is using the same render is just to reall accentuate how diffrent each person is, how starting with the same pic and same text requrements just how diffrent they end up. sorry for any confusion.
its fine i just didnt realize ther was a text requirement ill just have to rearrange my things slightly...but i did have a diff pic in mind..esp since this one has both arms cut off on the sides...ill have to blend in
You know I just picked one with more room to work around (the one with the fist cocked took up most of the room), I put Sugar as a subtext so it doesnt have to necessarily be in order just to give a little more freedom.
the one i already made was this one from this one
it just stuck out to me....anyways...ill get to working on this so i can try and win lol...
im in, but i dunno what the hell i'll be able to come up with,
so all we can do is to add the text, and differant brushes and effcts, no other pictures?
this should intresting to see what others come up with
Toxic the picture that steph posted is a much better one and the one I thought you were going to use because it looks the best. We should change it and use that picture.
Also check the prizepool in your OP because it seems to have grown a little :wink01:
Also I'm in.
Is this a general concensus on the Render? I understand were your coming from MJB and Steph, when I originally posted it I never even notice the left arm was cut off, my problem changing it is if some people have started using the one I originally posted then Im pretty much screwing them over if I change it.
You aren't really screwing them at all. The contest just started and they have a week to redo it. It's not like making a sig takes weeeks to do.

I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out of hiding and saying hello. It is such a treat for me to hear all of your stories, even though none of you have spinner reems on your stroller(s), bike(s) or etc. (I don't either, but I fantasize...) It makes the world seem so small and gives me such joy and gratitude to have a place in this community and your days. I want to hug and high-five every one of you. Some day, perhaps?
Thank you, ladies and gentledudes. Thanks for the love. You've made my week.

EXAMPLE: Content and Performance Standards
The following is an exerpt from the New Standards Project. New Standards would refer to this example as a content standard and performance descriptors. Please be aware that this example does not include examples of student work (that exemplify what meeting the standard work looks like), and a scoring rubric that includes performance levels. Under New Standards definition, all of these elements together constitute a performance standard.
Reading is a process which includes demonstrating comprehension and showing evidence of a warranted and responsible interpretation of the text. "Comprehension" means getting the gist of a text. It is most frequently illustrated by demonstrating an understanding of the text as a whole; identifying complexities presented in the structure of the text; and extracting salient information from the text. In providing evidence of a responsible interpretation, students may make connections between parts of a text, among several texts, and between texts and other experiences; make extensions and applications of a text; and examine texts critically and evaluatively.
* * *
E1d The student reads aloud, accurately (in the range of 85-90%), familiar material of the quality and complexity illustrated in the sample reading list, and in a way that makes meaning clear to listeners by--
Some examples of activities through which students might produce evidence of reading aloud accurately:
EXAMPLE: Content and Performance Standards
Mathematical Understanding
Arithmetic, Number, and Operation Concepts

7.6: Students understand arithmetic in computation, and they select and use, in appropriate situations, mental arithmetic, pencil and paper, calculator, and computer. This is evident when students--
PreK - 4
a. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide whole numbers, with or without calculators;
b. Begin to use simple concepts of negative numbers, properties of numbers (e.g., prime, square, composite), three-digit and larger multipliers and divisors, rates, and the relationship among fractions, decimals, and percents; and
c. Describe and compare quantities by using simple fractions and decimals, and whole numbers up to 1,000,000...
aa. Consistently and accurately add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers, and convert them into exponents;
bb. Interchange fractions, decimals, and percents; know that irrational numbers neither terminate nor repeat when written in decimal form;
cc. Show a sense of the magnitudes and relative magnitudes of numbers, and the helpful role of scientific notation; and...
f. Realize the inverse relationships between additional and subtraction, multiplication and division, and exponentiation and root-extraction.
aaa. Understand and use number systems: natural, whole, integer, rational, real and complex;
bbb. Represent numbers in decimal or fraction form and in scientific notation, and graph numbers on the number line in the coordinate plane;... and
ff. Understand and use unitary operations (e.g., opposite, reciprocal, absolute value, raising to a power, taking a root, and taking a logarithm).

Santhera Plunges on European Eye Drug Rejection: Zurich Mover
Santhera Pharmaceuticals Holding AG (SANN), the Swiss developer of an experimental treatment for a rare inherited eye disease, fell to a record low after European regulators recommended against approving the drug.
Santhera plunged as much as 31 percent to 3.30 Swiss francs, the lowest since the company went public in November 2006. The shares traded 23 percent lower at 3.71 francs as of 11:34 a.m. in Zurich, giving the company a market value of 13.6 million francs ($14.5 million).
A "narrow majority" of the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use decided Santhera's Raxone was "not approvable at this time," Liestal, Switzerland-based Santhera said in a statement today. The company has requested a re-examination of the decision, it said.
Members of the committee expressed concern about the reliability of results from a trial of the drug because of the small number of patients studied, Santhera said.
The company had sought approval for Raxone as a treatment for Leber's Hereditoar Optic Neuropathy, a genetically inherited disease that causes blindness, mostly in men.

|Genetic repair for optimization under constraints inspired by Arabidopsis thaliana
|FitzGerald A. and O'Donoghue D.P., 2008
|It has recently been proposed that the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress), uses a newly discovered genetic repair system to repair errors at the genetic level. A. thaliana uses information from the grandparent's genes as a basis for this correction --- so genetic information appears to skip a generation. We apply this gene repair strategy to a combinatory optimization problem, firstly comparing the performance of parent and grandparent based repair. Subsequent experiments expand our understanding of the GeneRepair algorithm, by examining the parameters of fitness and direction involved in the generepair process. Our results point to a tentative explanation as to why A. thaliana might have evolved such an apparently complex inheritance process.
