About Us
Our pets are fostered in NC and VA. However we do allow out of state adoptions. We have cost effective transporters who can get our adopted pets to almost any state on the East Coast.
We do alot of adoptions to the northern states. We have a location in Sussex NJ and one in Niagara Falls, NY and Albany NY. We have foster homes in the locations as well where some of our animals are fostered at times. If you want to check out out NJ and NY website feel free to visit www.saveamuttkennel.info .
You can check out the local animals that are fostered in VA and NC browsing our Petfinder listings here or by visiting our local website at http://www.saveanmuttkennel-va.info.
To adopt one of our rescue animals, you will need to place an application. You can find our application on our main web site at http://www.saveamuttkennel-va.info.
Once the application is approved you will pay a minimal holding deposit and submit an adoption contract.
If you are a local adopter or are coming to me in SW VA to pick your pet up, you can pay the remainder of the fee once you pick up your pet. If you are a northern or out of state adopter and we are shipping your pet up to you, the remainder is due the day before your pet ships to you via PayPal or you can send a USPS money order or check as long as it is in my hands the day before the pet ships.
We do adopt to people in other states. We can arrange transportation to most any state on the east coast (Except RI and MA) and Canada. We have access to low cost transport for all adopted animals.
For shorter deliveries we offer transports for just the cost of our gas. We are always happy to do delivery trips personally when time allows.
All pets that are transported to other states will have a complete health exam by my vet. The exam will be done no more than 24 hrs before they ship to their new home. Each pet that is adopted out of state will receive a certificate of health issued by my vet. A certificate of health is required before any pet can cross state lines legally. All animals that is adopted and is going within the state of VA is not required to have a certificate of health.
We do not have a physical location locally here in VA. All our adoptable pets are housed in private foster homes.
We are a group of dedicated animal lovers! All together we have been in rescue for nearly 20 years. We have worked unselfishly to help the needy animals who end in the area's kill shelters. We don't just take the cute fru fru type pets that are easy to place, we also take the very needy ones who really need help. We would be total hypocrites if we just took the easy cases!
Save A Mutt has some permanent rescues that can't be placed due to issues with their health, age, behavior etc. Some of these dogs and cats we have cared for out of our own pockets for many years. The dogs we do get adopted, those funds go toward caring for our permanent residents. For example our oldest rescue passed away in Nov of 2015 at the age of 16 years old. Her name was Marbles. She was a border collie/heeler mix. She had epilepsy. We cared for her since she was only 6 months old. We have several large breed dogs with issues just as debilitating as or more so than Marbles' condition was. Once we commit it is for the long haul, even if it means 16 years down the line.
Save A Mutt also provides care for a few colonies of (all spayed and neutered of course)feral cats that live on the founder's farm. Some of the cats have been with the founder for nearly 14 years. She was their last hope at a good life. Some of those cats came from VA cities where the city was going to KILL(as in poison or shoot) the feral cats because they considered them a public nuisance. The founder is actively involved in helping local groups such as Mayberry 4 Paws with fund raising to provide low cost spay/neuter services for cats in the area.
Save A Mutt Kennel also participates in the cat adoption program at the Mt.Airy Petsense store. Our adoptable cats are there for the public to visit. You can get an application to adopt one of our cats at the store or on our web site at www.saveamuttkennel-va.info. You can adopt one of our fully vetted and spayed/neutered cats for only $85.00.
Save A Mutt also works alongside a wonderful group called Carolina Canine Rescue. CCR started one of the area's first low cost spay neuter services for the general public. Their service provides surgeries at a discounted price for dogs and cats. They also provide transportation for the public to the spay/neuter clinic which is nearly 1 hr way from the town of Mt.Airy NC. For more information on the spay neuter program that CCR operates please see their web site at http://www.carolinacaninerescuenc.com/
Save A Mutt also helps to impact the numbers of unwanted dogs in the area by providing spay surgeries for any mother dog whose owner surrenders her litter of puppies to our group for placement in our rescue program. We then in turn make certain that all the puppies are altered as well. We make a great impact doing things that way. Not only that, we keep those animals from being dumped at the area kill shelters.
We are not a registered nonprofit, but we operate as a private rescue kennel. We have large operating expenses so there is no such thing as a profit here at Save A Mutt. The largest 2 expenses would be the rescue's pet food cost. We average spending $200 PER WEEK for dog, cat and puppy food. Our other large expense as one would imagine is the vet bills. On a good month we might have get away with only spending $1200.00-$1500 or so. However, we hardly have a good month. You can add the cost of the preventive stuff like heartworm prevention, de-worming, flea prevention and that easily tacks on hundreds to our expense cost each month.
Our pets are fostered in NC and VA. We DO NOT have a physical shelter! We do NOT have a physical facility for the public to visit!

[Personal Declaration] Financial Dispute
Posted by Sandeep Shelke on March 11th, 2012
Dear Friends,
Few months ago I brokered a deal with one person [identity withheld] about some stuff. We got into agreement of that person paying me some[withheld] amount for that stuff. For that he paid me some token amount (but I did not make any legal document since it was in mutual understanding and respect). And I was waiting for other formalities to complete before that person could pay me remaining amount. But this person after paying token due to some issues fail back on commitment and informed me through SMS that deal is broken.
Due this person's last-minute backing off I fail into huge loss and personal setback. Then this person started demanding back the token money paid. I agreed to payback since I was not interested in any such money which to is immoral though legal. But since I was already in deep trouble financially I said I'll pay as soon as possible.
This person started threatening and communicating to some close friends (when none of them is involved in this deal at all). On time to time I met that person and gave assurance (even after he cheated me) that I shall be paying at any cost that too in full.
Last month this person crossed all limits by threatening me and communicating to common friends that I will be dragged into court if I fail to pay immediately. Finally I met this person and gave post dated cheques.
I shall be updating this post with latest developments. Thanks.
जय भारत!
NOTE: I'm putting this dispute in public notice as I don't want any damage to my reputation in long run. All details are withheld to avoid any defamation/character damage. I can share if need be.

Please enter your Mobile Number and Education Level to proceed.
i want to joint as pilot with DGCV , what is the basic Education require to became a pilot...............i request please answer
Becoming a pilot is a long process but a process which is worth the hard work and the effort. To become a Pilot the first requirement is that you should be 12th with Maths and Physics as your subjects. After this you should do a class 2 medical and get a computer number from DGCA and a File number. Having done this you should look for a good flying school which would help you to fly and also have a good ground school. Join the flying school and then you have to appear for exams with director general civil aviation. These exams are held every three months and are conducted 4 times a year. The subjects are Navigation, Air regulations, Technical general, Technical Specific, Meteorology. Along with this you have to appear for the radio telephone exam with the ministry of communication. Having taken care of the exams you have to do 200 hrs of flying on a trainer aircraft and this covers basic flying, general handling, navigation procedures, night flying, cross country flying, instrument flying and a few tests. Once you have completed these you submit the papers to director general civil aviation and get a license issued. Along with all these papers you need verification of the mark sheets of 10 and 12th from the board where you did the exams and a police verification before you start flying. Once you have got a license then you could apply to airlines and other places to fly as a commercial pilot. To join Director general of civil aviation you will have to gain experience as a pilot, upgrade yourself to getting the airline transport pilot licence after giving DGCA exams and having done 1500 hours of flying. The next step is to become a check pilot in the airline and then an instructor and an examiner in the airline. These processes take some time and are based onthe experience one has. After you have achieved this you can apply to DGCA for becoming an Flying Inspector with DGCA. The vacancies for this are listed by DGCA from time to time. This is if you want to join DGCA as a pilot. But if you want to join as any other branch then you need to be a graduate and then go and pass UPSC exams for the post that is available and through the UPSC exam you can join DGCA. In that case you do not have to become a pilot. There your duties would be very different.
In order to post replies to the question: "How can became pilot AND join DGCV -after 12 th science"

text: I have an old house that only has 2 wires to the outlets. All of a sudden I have 2 switches for the lights that quit working. One of the switches has 2.1 volts and the other has 0 volts. One day they were working and then just quit. the 2.1 volts is rather confusing. Any suggestions will be appreciated.


text: SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- NETGEAR®, Inc. (NASDAQGM: NTGR) ( www.netgear.com), a global networking company that delivers innovative products to consumers, businesses and service providers, today set a new bar for the networking industry by expanding its switching solutions ( netgear.com/business/products/switches/) with a full range of the industry's first announced affordable 10 Gigabit Copper (10GBASE-T) switches for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), government agencies, educational facilities, and other networks supporting fewer than 500 users. NETGEAR is introducing three new switches with groundbreaking price points, ranging from the lightly managed ProSafe 8-port 10 Gigabit Plus Switch (XS708E) for small networks, to the ProSafe 12-port 10 Gigabit Smart Switch (XS712T) for small and medium-sized networks, to the ProSafe 24-Port 10 Gigabit Copper M7100 series Managed Switch (XSM7224) designed for enterprise and campus-style networks supporting up to 500 users. NETGEAR's new 10GBASE-T offerings range from as little as $125 per port to $250 per port on the top end, in stark comparison to the most aggressively priced 10GBASE-T solutions currently on the market, which can cost $415 per port or more. "It's good to see that NETGEAR is offering a switch with 10 Gigabit for entry-level situations," said Eric Lindeman, a solution consultant with ETC Distribution BV in the Netherlands ( www.etcdistribution.nl). "I look forward to the massive speed upgrade and how the network will perform as a result." Today's announcement greatly expands NETGEAR's leadership in future-proof networking technology innovation in 10 Gigabit switching. The new copper switches join the NETGEAR ProSafe 24-Port 10 Gigabit Stackable L2+ Managed Switch (XSM7224S) successfully launched in early 2011 that leverages 10 Gigabit fiber to enable businesses to accelerate their data centers to enterprise-class speed, with far less cost and complexity than traditional enterprise vendors ( netgear.com/business/products/switches/fully-managed-switches/10-gigabit/XSM7224S.aspx#). With the introduction of the new 10GBASE-T switches, NETGEAR becomes the first networking solutions provider to bring more affordable 10GBASE-T solutions to sub-500 user networks to alleviate performance bottlenecks and deliver a fast and seamless response to unpredictable bandwidth demands. The company now offers a complete portfolio of cost-effective 10 Gigabit copper and fiber switching solutions ( www.netgear.com/10gigabit/) for networks ranging from a few employees to medium-sized businesses and government agencies with remote branches and campus-style networks. According to Crehan Research, ( www.crehanresearch.com/), a market research and consulting firm focused on data center switch, server and storage networking, 10GBASE-T switch shipments are expected to see a forty-fold increase over the next five years. "Thus far, 10GBASE-T switch market penetration has been relatively low. However, the arrival of affordable, lower-power products in conjunction with the uptake of 10GBASE-T on servers should propel much broader 10GBASE-T switch adoption," said Seamus Crehan, president of Crehan Research. The network performance bottleneck caused by the growing demand for bandwidth to support intensive new applications, combined with the proliferation of data replication and the widespread adoption of server and storage virtualization in small and medium sized networks, is driving the deployment of 10 Gigabit solutions for network connectivity. 10GBASE-T, like other BASE-T technologies, uses the standard RJ45 Ethernet jack, a connection form factor not only common on switches but also normally integrated onto servers, workstations and other PCs. BASE-T usually runs up to 100 meters, on the widely deployed, twisted pair copper cabling such as Cat6A and more recently Cat7, which is far easier to adopt than 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) fiber. 10GBASE-T technology is also backward compatible, auto-negotiating between higher and lower speeds, thereby not forcing an all-at-once network upgrade. With Crehan Research predicting that the number of servers with 10GbE ports will represent a majority of servers shipped in 2014, 10GbE has finally reached the tipping point of availability on servers. The next step in adoption requires affordable price points for infrastructure, to put 10GbE in the realm of possibility for smaller networks as well as medium-sized enterprises, government agencies and educational facilities with evolving networking requirements.

I have tried this recipe twice. It seems that one hour twenty mintues is not long enought. Each time that I baked this cake it was not done. I had to bake it for almost two hours, then the outside was hard. I just cut off the burned hard outside and drizzle the middle with the delicious glaze and everyone loves it. I don't know whats wrong with the batter. Maybe it should be lighter/thinner. Not sure how to acheive this. I would love to give it another try if you can provide information on correcting the batter. The flavor is there so I rated it high. Thank you

Count Lightning: The Party
The Superhero Conference had formally began. The Opening Party was going on and all the superheroes were wearing their finest and dancing in the biggest Conference Room in the whole hotel.
Count Lightning, the President of the United States Superhero Leauge (USSL), was sitting on the stage in a modest folding chair. The night was getting late and it was time to make his announcement.
The Count walked up to the microphone and tapped it. "Can I have your attention, please?" he said into it. No one noticed him. Thunder rolled and all of the superheroes turned toward the stage. "Thank you," he said. "Now, I know you all came here to relax and learn a littl emore about your powers, but, unfortunately, you will not be getting a vacation. Protests rose all around him. "There is a villian here and we need to find out who it is and get them out."

Chapter 2 - "We have a 10-67."Mature
"Thanks, but..." The girl's sentence was cut off when again she held back a cry of pain.
"Hey. Stay calm." Alex held himself back from directly touching her, though his arm went out towards her when she cringed. "We'll get you to a hospital...and you'll be fine."
"No. I'll heal."
The response was one Alex didn't expect, but he didn't respond to it. He had a bad feeling this girl was traumatized by whatever happened. Even so, and as odd as it was, hearing her trying to act brave, or disguise fear, by saying such a thing helped him calm down also. "Can you tell me your name?"
The girl nodded but coughed once more, this time drawing and spraying a bit of blood from her mouth. Alex recoiled a bit from it, but didn't stand up. "Angela..."
Cutting her off before she gave her last name, Alex refrained from trying to grab her right hand, even though he wanted to. "Angela, we will get you to a hospital. Just stay with us." Looking over to Nathan, he called out to him. "Anything yet?"
"Almost." Nathan replied, quickly going back to answering the phone.
"They'll come, and you'll be fine." Alex said.
"Not with him around." Angela's eyes were now shut tight, letting a couple of tears roll down her face.
Alex didn't waste any time asking about what she said. "Who? Who did this?" Angela didn't answer, instead gripping the grass with her one free hand. "You want to tell the police instead?"
"No." Angela replied, sounding upset this time. "I don't...want the police."
Alex swallowed his tongue for a second. Was he pushing her? "No." he though. It had to be Angela's reaction to being torn up so badly that was making her act like this, but either way it was better to stop her from getting hysterical. "OK, OK. I'll stop. Uh..."
"Alex, they're on the way." Nathan said. "ETA's five minutes, and they said to keep her warm."

The wisdom that comes with age is not limited to humans. Our wisest dogs need a little more attention as they learn to adapt to their constantly changing limitations.
As a dog, being terminally ill must be confusing. As you start to feel worse and worse the people you love make you feel better and better.
Cruciate Ligament ruptures and many other injuries can mean restrictive walks and activity. But every dog needs to get out at least a few times a day.
Some dogs don't like other dogs. Some don't like other people. We can work on introducing the right dogs to learn from each other.

Hey - I started at level 1 about a month ago and have been working consistently. I'd like to get a few simple off-day workouts going. I have a few criteria and I hope you all can guide me in the right direction.
1] I have two goals - getting strong and losing weight. I suppose a side goal would be great endurance as well.
2] I don't want to hinder muscles from recovering - that's what an off day is for.
Here's an example of what I was thinking about:
As many rounds in 20 minutes
5 reps 20 lb dumbbell push press
10 situps
5 reps 20 lb dumbbell overhead squat
After typing that up, it looks more like a full workout. I definitely don't want to overdo it. How bout this:
5 rounds for time:
4 reps 20lb dumbbell push press
10 situps
3 overhead squats
I'm totally guessing at all of the numbers here, but what do you think?

Andros Townsend stepped off the bench to hit a 57th-minute winner as Millwall's awayday blues continued.Townsend had only been on the pitch for 50 seconds having replaced the injured Jason Demetriou when he capitalised on some sloppy defending to rifle home an angled drive past Lions keeper David Forde.Kenny Jackett's men haven't won on their travels since Jason Price hit an injury-time winner at Crewe in March some 11 away games ago, and despite their effort, Millwall rarely suggested they would improve on that statistic.In what proved to be a disappointingly scrappy derby, chances were few and far between the two sides as they both struggled to impress.The Lions showed just one change to the team that had played so well against Huddersfield last Saturday with James Henry replacing Dave Martin, who dropped to the bench.Former O's striker Gary Alexander also took his place on the bench after recovering from a heel injury, with Lewis Grabban the player making way.The first half saw both teams try to prise and probe an opening, but the reality was that neither keeper really had anything other than standard saves to make.Millwall's first serious foray after four minutes saw Ali Fuseini spread the ball wide to Steve Morison on the right, but his cross was just too close to home keeper Jamies Jones, who collected the ball comfortably.Morison was involved again on 10 minutes with some smart footwork inside the area creating an opening for Jimmy Abdou 10 yards out. Unfortunately on this occasion the midfielder's shot lacked power and the danger was averted.At the other end Luke Summerfield, signed on loan from Plymouth during the week, was close to marking his Orient debut with a goal after 17 minutes only to see a fierce left-foot shot deflected for a corner.James Scowcroft wasted possibly the clearest opening of the half a couple of minutes later when he broke into the area, only to drill a shot wide on his weaker left foot.Morison then headed wide following good work by Neil Harris and Tamika Mkandawire saw his effort glance over the bar as the two teams traded chances towards the end of a goal-less first half.Millwall came out after the break showing greater intent and twice within the opening couple of minutes Harris first saw a trademark curler held by the keeper before then flicking the ball on to Henry, who drove over.A clash of heads between Chris Hackett and Demetriou resulted in the O's midfielder leaving the field on 56 minutes. Within 50 seconds sub Townsend hit what proved to be the winner with his first touch of the ball, a rasping angled drive that gave Forde no chance.Townsend was close to adding a second 10 minutes later when he escaped the attention of three Millwall players and let fly with a thunderous effort that Forde tipped over for a corner.Jackett, who had already brought on Martin for Hackett, introduced former Brisbane Road favourite Gary Alexander and then Danny Schofield in quick succession in a bid to add some potency to his team's attack.Harris teed up Alexander 18 yards out but keeper Jones was equal to Alexander's 81st-minute effort whilst Andy Frampton blasted over from close-range following a Martin corner.But with the clock ticking away and The O's producing a resilient rearguard action, there was sadly to be no way back for Jackett and his men who will be determined to add points to the board with successive home games against Yeovil (Tuesday) and then Tranmere Rovers next Saturday.

Home › Forums › Gear Forums › Make Your Own Gear › MYO aerogel sleeping bag
Jul 2, 2008 at 2:08 am #1229958
I think this thread is gonna be fun!
Lets start with source for aerogel. There two options for those of us who dont work with NASA:
2)Buy granular aerogel
MYO isnt impossible as was demonstrated by the fifth-grader. But he was able to make just 1-1/2" by
5-1/2" irregular pieces. Making uniform sheets is probably not possible at home. An there could be an
advantage with using granular aerogel.
Here my idea:
>Make a SUL sleeping bag shell of silk
>Apply adhesive on the entire outer side
>Then uniformly sprinkle aerogel on the glue. You will need a lot of aerogel!
>move your hand over the aerogel layer. If you feel the glue add aerogel on that spot. Keep doing till if you find no sticky spot.
>You may need another silk bag as outer shell.
Although I havent tried this I dont see why it wouldnt work.
Another great thing about aerogel sleeping bag is that you dont need a insulated pad with it. You can get away with a sheet of bubble wrap placed under you inside the sleeping bag.Jul 2, 2008 at 4:06 am #1441140
G DupMember
This is funny, i've thought about this before as well. This is going to be so outrageously expensive with materials and equip and all… some big gear mfg w/ a big $ r&d dept is going to have to have a go at this one. Can you imagine any kind of glue/epoxy that would bond aerogel to fabric (doubtful). Seems like you will have to use insanely small baffles.
Maybe a sleeping pad w/ small slabs or stove/mug insulation would be more practical. This is way too far out, nobody is going to do this and come up with a usable bag (prove me wrong!)Jul 2, 2008 at 5:32 am #1441143
Eric FitzMember
I say do it. You can buy a liter of the granules for $35 from that small place. I'd image you could get a lot more for half of that.
I think you should make a really thick baffle filled with it on the bottom. Make it like a bean bag chair on the bottom side. You wont have to carry a pad. That would be funny.
Biggest downside is that it wont stuff. No compression by the nature of one of it's best properties. Maybe you could fill the rest of the bag with helium and tie a string on it instead of packing it ;)
I can see it now. A cuben and aerogel bag. You would look like one of those lollipops with the bug inside.
BTW: Make sure you get a hydrophobic version of the stuff. Aerogel is hydrophilic without treatment.

@finallymeLocale: Utah desert
Yeah, the biggest problem is that it won't compress. The bag would be huge and expensive. Down is cheaper and compresses. I thought about using a blanket, but those are really heavy. For some reason, making aerogel flexible adds a lot of weight.
Also, if you use an epoxy, it would stiffen the fabric, and probably negate any weight savings from the aerogel.Jul 4, 2008 at 9:55 am #1441491
>this is going to be so outrageously expensive with materials and equip and all…
I am not sure how much aerogel would be required for the sleeping bag. United Nuclear sells 950cc Aerogel for $35. It isnt that expensive. An aerogel sleeping bag may possibly be cheaper then down sleeping bag.
>Can you imagine any kind of glue/epoxy that would bond aerogel to fabric
Aerogel is made from Silicon Dioxide, the same material as ordinary Glass. So I think any epoxy that can bond glass to fabric would be able to bond aerogel to fabric.
>Make sure you get a hydrophobic version of the stuff. Aerogel is hydrophilic without treatment.
I will contact UN to enquire about that.
btw does anyone have any idea if absorbtion of moisture by aerogel affects its insulating ability.Jul 4, 2008 at 11:29 pm #1441558
Patrick SlatteryMember
something like this?Jul 5, 2008 at 5:47 am #1441568
After some calculations I realised that a layer of aerogel granules will not provide much insulation. Aerogel has R value of 10/inch that means a clo value of about 11.36
A 30F bag with clo value of about 5.68 will have to be about half inch thick. Uncompressibility of aerogel is sure a valid point now. I would personally chose smaller volume over less weight anyday.
I think I was also wrong about the cost – a half inch think bag would be very expensive. Not sure if I can even make a half inch bag from granules.Jul 8, 2008 at 10:16 am #1441990
I had emailed Polyformes Ltd, UK a few days back to enquire if they sell spaceloft in small quantity. The do! I just got their email.
After a lot of thought it seems to me that aerogel has more benifits when used as a pad then as a sleeping bag. A foldable design such Nightlight torso would be really cool. Check out the link Patrick posted above.
At R value of 10/inch, a 9mm or .35" spaceloft pad will have a R value of 3.5. Comparingly, 3/8" or 9.5mm thinlight has R value of just 1.42!Jul 8, 2008 at 5:10 pm #1442064
Eric FitzMember
Think there might be more value in a pot wrap than a sleep pad. Those blankets don't look light or squishy. Do you have data on them?Jul 8, 2008 at 11:03 pm #1442095
Hi Eric.
Here is the link to the spaceloft datasheet PDF:
Spaceloft has a density of .15grams/cc. Approximating 9mm spaceloft as 10mm for ease of calculation, a 150cm x 50cm pad (smae dimension as thinlight) will weight 1125 grams…. 9mm pad will weight 1012.5grams. You were right, its heavy.Jul 9, 2008 at 11:32 am #1442172

I've been using Aspen aerogel blankets to make multilayer insulation for instruments and vessels at the lab where I work for a couple of years, and I aquired a large piece of Aspen's Spaceloft and experimented with sleeping pad designs about eight months ago. I reported all of the details and carried on some discussion in a dedicated thread:
Aspen's aerogel blankets are very dense compared to typical sleeping pad foam. I tried using the lowest density product Aspen makes, the Spaceloft 6250. It's only 6mm thick but close to 20 ounces/square yard. A torso pad would be half a pound before encapsulation. The fibrous mat in which the aerogel dendrites are formed is like heavy industrial felt. They can be peeled apart to give thinner sheets, but this causes a good deal of the entrapped aerogel to be lost as clouds of fine, choking dust. Flexing the blanket also produces a lot of dust. Any place that folds soon loses all it's aerogel and becomes just a polyester mat.
Also, a lot of research has gone into the use of aerogel-based multilayer insulation for underwater pipelines, where compression of the insulation is a problem (as in sleeping pad design). The aerogel is a bit like that brittle green foam often used for artificial plants. Under compression it mashes down irreversibly. It's not elastic. In the studies I read of pipeline insulation the compressed aerogel doubled in density and lost half its initial insulation value.
I think an aerogel sleeping pad competitive with plain old EVA foam in performance would need three things: a shiny IR reflective envelope (aluminized mylar, for example), evacuation (to below 10 torr), and incompressible posts (maybe syntactic silicone foam) to protect the aerogel from compression.
Ultimately you'd get a very expensive, fragile, complex system that probably wouldn't beat EVA by very much.
It wouldn't suprise me a bit if one of our little MYOG community came up with a way around these difficulties, though. I don't want to shoot anyone down. I think powdered aerogel (pulverized granules), vacuum sealed in tiny (1/8 inch) tubelike parallel baffles, might have promise for warm, lightweight, waterproof gloves and hats.Nov 5, 2008 at 4:14 pm #1457723
forrest pierceMember
Dude get a food vacuum sealer on ebay and get some granular aerogel. When the bag compresses it will hold all the granuals together and water tight.You could have a bunch of cells on either side filled with argon gas so the areogel wont be crushed under weight. Cant wait for winter!!! ForrestNov 16, 2008 at 8:40 pm #1459237

The only thing I could not get around with the glue (epoxy, whatever) is breathability. If all you are making with the stuff is a VBL, there are cheaper ways! :p
I so love my down, but after so many years of leading the industry (weight, compressibility) I cannot wait to see the next big thing!Nov 21, 2008 at 5:26 pm #1460091

@rossbleakneyLocale: Cascades
If I understand correctly, Aerogel has some interesting and unusual properties:
1) High insulation for the thickness
2) Very light for the amount of insulation
3) Doesn't compress
4) Fragile?
5) Has to be wrapped in something
The first and third item make it very unusual. Most insulation (down or puffy synthetic) gets its warmth from trapping air. Thus, the only way you can get decent warmth is by making it thick. On the other hand, the lack of compressibility (when packed) is a big drawback (as mentioned). When these two factors are combined, some uses make a lot of sense. For example, shoe inserts. You certainly don't want to make an insert too thick, nor do you want it to compress (a down insert makes no sense). In this way, it more resembles thinsulate, or neoprene.
Of course, the last two items make things difficult. Since it needs to be wrapped in something, you either wrap it in an air tight bag (which is the simplest, but makes it almost useless as far as body insulation) or as Huzefa originally proposed, a breathable container. I like the sleeping pad idea (I know some company out there makes one) because you don't have to worry about breathing. I would imagine you could have a thin layer of the stuff surrounded by a thin closed cell pad (an aerogel sandwich on closed cell foam). I would design it like the Z-Rest, so you can fold it up easily. I think such a pad could be fairly small (when folded up). Such a folding approach would lessen worries about shifting pellets (if you roll a pad, your squishing it longitudinally which could cause problems). Such a pad would work well with another pad (the aerogel pad would be primarily for warmth allowing you to reduce overall bulk by carrying an additional inflatable for comfort).
There are probably other uses out there for this stuff, but dealing with its unusual properties requires a lot of thought and creativity.

The latest news from academia, regulators

Nanoparticles combine photodynamic and molecular therapies against pancreatic cancer
|"A broad challenge in cancer treatment is that tumor cells use a network of cellular signaling pathways to resist and evade treatment," says Bryan Spring, PhD, of the Wellman Center, co-lead author of the report. "The new optically active nanoparticle we have developed is able both to achieve tumor photodamage and to suppress multiple escape pathways, opening new possibilities for synchronized multidrug combination therapies and tumor-focused drug release."
|Photodynamic therapy (PDT), involves the use of chemicals called photosensitizers that are activated by exposure to specific wavelengths of light to release reactive molecules that can damage nearby cells. In cancer treatment, PDT damages both tumor cells and their blood supply, directly killing some tumor cells and starving those that remain of nutrients. But as with many other types of treatments, treating tumors with PDT can stimulate molecular signaling pathways that support tumor survival.
|The nanomedicine developed by the Wellman-based team is made up of nanoliposomes - spherical lipid membrane structures - enclosing a polymer nanoparticle that has been loaded with a targeted molecular therapy drug. The lipid membrane of these photoactivable multi-inhibitor nanoliposomes (PMILs) contains a FDA-approved photosensitizer called BPD (benzoporphyrin derivative), and the nanoparticles are loaded with a molecular therapy drug called XL184 or cabozantinib. XL184 inhibits two important treatment escape pathways, VEGF and MET, but while it has FDA approval to treat thyroid cancer and is being tested against pancreatic cancer and several other tumors, it is quite toxic requiring dose restrictions or treatment interruption. Since XL184 is delivered to every part of the body and not just to the tumor when administered orally, enclosing it in the PMIL could reduce toxicity by confining its action to the area of the tumor.
|Led by Tayyaba Hasan, PhD, of the Wellman Center, the investigators first confirmed in laboratory experiments that exposing PMILs to near-infrared light both activated the antitumor action of BPD and, by disrupting the lipid membrane envelope, released the XL184-containing nanoparticles. In two mouse models of pancreatic cancer, a single treatment consisting of intravenous delivery of the PMILs followed by localized delivery of near-infrared light to the tumor site via optical fibers resulted in significantly greater reduction in tumor size than did either treatment with XL184 or PDT with BPD alone. PMIL treatment also was significantly more effective than treatment with both XL184 and BPD-PDT given as separate agents. Along with prolonged tumor reduction, PMIL treatment also almost completely suppressed metastasis in the mouse models.
|While the VEGF treatment escape pathway is known to be induced and sensitized by PDT, the research team found that PDT also induces signaling via the MET pathway. The ability to deliver XL184 and PDT almost simultaneously allowed the two therapeutics to be "at the right place at the right time" to cut off the rapid initiation of escape signaling that usually follows PDT. This was reflected in how much more efficient PMIL-delivered treatment was in the animal models compared to either treatment alone, since PDT simultaneously sensitized the tumor to the second therapy. Delivery of XL184 directly to the tumor site produced these promising results at a dosage level less than one thousandth of what is used in oral therapy, with little or no toxicity.
|"Right now we can say this approach has tremendous potential for patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, for whom surgery is not possible," says Hasan. "In our Phase I/II clinical studies with PDT alone, tumor destruction was achieved in all cases, and we've seen at least one case where PDT alone induced enough tumor shrinkage to enable follow-up surgery. The more robust tumor reduction and suppression of escape pathways possible with PMILs might enable curative surgery or improve the outcome of chemotherapy to enhance patient survival. But while we are encouraged by these results, this combination in a new nanoconstruct needs more validation before becoming a clinical treatment option"

National Bus Sales to Offer Trans Tech Type A School Buses
The dealer will sell and service Trans Tech's full line of Type A school buses in Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Oklahoma, Ohio, and Washington.
Twenty-one teams gather in the parking lot of Metro Tech Vocational Institute in Phoenix on a chilly March morning during the National Conference on Transporting Students with Disabilities (for conference coverage, see "Creating a Safe Transportation Team" in this issue). Participants are divided into two groups, under the guidance of team leaders Gabriel Cachora Sr., transportation director for Indian Oasis-Baboquivari Unified School District No. 40 in Sells, Ariz., and Virginia Torres, safety coordinator for The Trans Group in Long Island, N.Y. The team leaders act as parent-figures, guiding the competitors, answering questions and, above all, encouraging them. "I'm the cheerleader," says Torres, "and this is the Super Bowl of roadeos." Torres has been a team leader at her state's competition for the past two years, but this is her first time leading at the national level. "It [the roadeo] is very organized, very exciting, very positive. There's a lot of learning going on; a lot of sharing of ideas," she says. By the end of the day, Torres will be proud to announce that four of this year's five winning teams came from the group she led.
Anxiety runs high
The two groups separate and attack the events, one starting on pre-trip inspections and the other beginning with loading and securement. Driver Michelle (Micky) Schatz and attendant Kristie Perez of Gilbert (Ariz.) Unified School District have some trouble with the securement exercise, but remain optimistic. "We did good on loading. We had a trying time with the securement, but we're okay," says Perez. Schatz and Perez are not alone in experiencing difficulties during the securement event. The securement system used in the competition is not the same one they practiced on the night before. This unexpected change in equipment causes a stir. "They [participants] were panicked about the time," attests Maritza Valentin, product specialist for Sure-Lok in Branchburg, N.J., and one of the judges of the event. Despite nervousness, the teams performed admirably, says Sure-Lok Sales Director Keith Coffin, also judging the event. "Last year versus this year, I've seen extreme improvement -- in sensitivity, dedication and just the mathematics of the whole thing," he says. One team in particular impressed him with its improvement. Last year, the partners struggled through the roadeo. This year, they earned 100 percent on securement and fourth place overall in the roadeo. Upon receiving Coffin's praises, the teammates proclaim, "We've been practicing for this all year!"
Competition heats up
In the afternoon, the teams gear up for the emergency evacuation and behind-the-wheel portions Ñ two of the most challenging events. "The emergency evacuation is definitely the hardest, because you can't really prepare for it. You don't know what the scenario will be," says Beth Green, driver for Tatum (Texas) Independent School District. As each team boards the bus, a judge reads the following scenario: You are broadsided on the driver's side of the bus at an intersection. The bus spins and rolls off the road, but its back end is still in the intersection. You're at the bottom of a hill, where cars will have limited visibility before encountering the bus. The driver of the car appears badly injured. None of the bus' passengers appears injured. The bus is in working order, including the lift. It's 10 degrees outside and snowy. A neighbor who you don't know comes to the bus and offers assistance. You have four children on board. One is in a car seat. Two are seated on bus seats and one is in a wheelchair. The judge finishes reading the scenario and presses the button on the stopwatch in her hand. "Go!" she says, and driver and attendant rush into action. With no time to plan in advance and only two minutes to execute the entire procedure, each team approaches the evacuation in a different way. Some use the lift to lower the student in the wheelchair. Some remove him from the chair and carry him out the front or back doors. Some enlist the help of the neighbor in evacuating the students. A couple of teams even decide not to evacuate at all, but to put out the orange triangles and wait for help instead. The mock evacuation so closely resembles a real situation that many participants say it is truly nerve-racking.
Maintaining control
Of all events, the driving portion of the roadeo most closely replicates the complexities of the participants' daily jobs. Driver Theresa Cole and attendant Deena-Ann Chenault of The Trans Group in Long Island, N.Y., come equipped with a bag of tricks customized for the two passengers they will be transporting. One student (played by judge Brenda Starkey-Fernandez, administrator for transportation at Brownville Independent School District in Texas) has autism and a tendency to repeat words, rock back and forth, bite, bang her head and get up and run. The other student (also a judge) has behavior management problems and an affinity for taunting her fellow passenger. Chenault sits beside the students in their assigned seats, where she can manage their behavior. When Starkey-Fernandez attempts to bite herself or to get up, Chenault is ready with an instructive word, a gentle touch or a distraction tool, such as a book or game. She even brings along a pillow to protect Starkey-Fernandez when she resorts to banging her head on the window. While maneuvering the bus through barrels and over railroad tracks, Cole practices repeating the bus rules with the kids. At the end of the route, driver and attendant present "good rider" certificates to the students. Starkey-Fernandez, before dropping her student role, says, "Man, that was no fun! I couldn't do anything. No one sat on me like you did!" Starkey-Fernandez says she thinks the key to the team's success was in the fact that Chenault did not get off the bus to fetch the children at their stop. By staying inside the bus, she established her authority and gained control of the space. Starkey-Fernandez also notes that the pair came well prepared to meet the needs of the students they would be transporting. "I scored them one of the highest of the day," she says.

So Gabrielle closed her Grandmother's ancient book and stood. She decided to go the long way home, accross the huge graveyard and round the whole city, finally going round the post office on Sallice Street and making her way back from there, instead of pushing through the thick, overgrown bracken and down the secret lane that comes out the back of thesmelly resturant Fish Heaven - that lots of tourists went to and therefore making all locals avoid it as much as possible.When they did pass it they gave it a wide berth, therefore making it perfect for Gabrielle to hang out near it.
It would give her more time and space. But she ran, skidding round a corner and bumping hard into someone. It was Mr Junoire, the head teacher of Blue Primary. A shouty, fat man that spent his time telling young children off and eating chocoalte biscuits or stirring his tea.
'Watch where you're going, girl!' he yelled as Gabrielle sped off. He had never liked her since she spilt her juice in his office when she was six. She had been in his office because she was her year's council representative. It was cruel to have a grudge against a girl so innocent for a thing she did so young. Why was a little bit of juice so significant? But that was who he was and there was no changing him. He had sent her home immediately and Grannie had come to pick her up and wipe away her tears and cradle her in her arms.
That was when Grannie had been younger and stronger. However in the years before she got Dementia, she hadn't even been able to pick up a plate of food. She was so frail and unstable that she had stayed in her soft chair in the lounge most of the time.
Gabrielle got to her house, reached up for the door handle, quietly let herself in and slipped up stairs. Grabbing a neatly wrapped parcel from her room, she tiptoed into her Gramps' room and placed the package on his pillow. Downstairs there was loud laughter. Gabrielle crept back into her room and sat and wrote for hours into the night.

Prof. A. S. Sambo 8 Energy Efficient Products in Nigeria Prof. A. S. Sambo 9 Walk-through Energy Audits Energy Savings Potential Energy efficiency in the industrial sector in Nigeria is low; Over 40% of total energy used is wasted on old, obsolete and inefficient equipment; 25% saving potential exists through good housekeeping measures alone; Retrofitting in industries could save over 35% of energy currently used; 40% of electricity consumption for air conditioning could be saved through more efficient equipment and practices; 30% and 35% saving potentials can be achieved in residential and transport sectors respectively; Prof. A. S. Sambo 10 Walk-through Energy Audits Power Outage Cost Analysis While electricity from PHCN accounted for about 60% of total electricity consumption by the firms, the average cost per kWh is N8.5. Auto-generation accounted for only 40% of electricity consumption, but the average cost was N40.47 per kWh. The audits show that 262 firms spent nearly N2 billion on privately supplied electricity in 2003. Firms lost 900 working hours to power outages in 2003; Assuming an eight-hour working day, this translates to about 113 working days in 2003. Also, about 35% of the firms reported having to shut down production at one time or the other in the year as a result of power outages. The annualized cost of generator to the firms is N318.63 per kW. Annualized other capital items like generator house (N282.57); stabilizer (N20.51); fuel oil tank (N100.46); and others (N256.98). Thus the capital cost of keeping a generator is N700 per kW. For the industrial sector, existing measure of outage costs vary between $2.27 to $32.46/kWh of unserved electricity. Residential outage costs vary between $0.05 and $24.61/kWh unserved. Prof. A. S. Sambo 11 Walk-through Energy Audits Electricity Supply Situation Frequent power cuts and voltage fluctuations; Every industrial establishment undertakes extra investments in generators; Over 30% of total cost of production is on energy supply that is wasted on inefficient equipment; Capital value of generators is on the average, 25% of the total value of machinery and equipment Prof. A. S. Sambo Proportion of Electric Power Supply from Own Gen. Sets by Firm Size, 2002 12 Barriers to EE & C Promotion Lack of Detailed and Reliable Data; Lack of Awareness on EE & C Benefits among Policymakers and End-Users; Lack of skilled manpower to identify and implement specific EC measures; Lack of Adequate Institutional Framework; Inefficient Energy Pricing Policies; Lack of Capital to finance EC programs/projects; Low Manufacturing Capacity Prof. A. S. Sambo 13 Opportunities for Collaboration Industrial Energy Assessment Program Trading on Energy-efficient products – CFLs, Energyefficient Motors, Improved steam boilers, ESCOs on EE & C – not existing Human capacity building on EE & C programs Energy Labeling – urgently required Prof. A. S. Sambo 14 Conclusion Inefficiency in energy use has brought a significant negative impact on the cost competitiveness of the manufacturing sector in Nigeria; There is the urgent need for international support to see to the take off of the NCEEC in Nigeria and the subsequent entrenchment of the EE & C practices. Prof. A. S. Sambo 15 Thank You and God Bless!! Prof. A. S. Sambo 16

On Friday, it was revealed that Liverpool will be signing a new kit deal with American firm Warrior Sports when their current supplier's contract with Adidas expires in 2012/13. The biggest revelation from the deal is that the Reds will be getting £25m a year, taking over Manchester United's deal with Nike (£23m a year) as the biggest kit supplier deal in British football.
Liverpool are currently the fourth largest replica shirt sellers in the world, with 900,000 sold per year, only trailing behind Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid. The Reds deal with Warrior Sports will be the first football shirt deal for the American company, who are little known outside of the United States.
So who are Warrior Sports? There were set up in the 1992 by former champion Lacrosse player David Morrow. Since, they have been at the forefront of new Lacrosse equipment and jerseys, becoming the first supplier to develop titanium shafts for Lacrosses sticks. They eventually branched out into Hockey, but they have yet to breakthrough into any other sports.
So how, you may ask, could they afford to outbid global giants Adidas for the right to make Liverpool replica shirts? In 2004, they were taken over by American Sportswear firm New Balance. New Balance have been going since the early 1900s, and are most famous in the US for developing footwear for athletes. New Balance grew steadily as a company and is now worth over $1billion, which is still only a tenth of the size of both Nike and Adidas. The American company, in addition to acquiring Warrior, has also bought out Dunham, PF Flyers, Aravon and Brine Sporting Goods.

Thanks goodness, Athearn. Good stuff.
Right you are. I gotta admit, Bachmann snap-track is convenient. You dont gotta worry about lint or sawdust getting on the track considering it's height, which is a plus. Only negative I can think of it is how high up it is and how unnatural stations look with it.
And I finally got around to taking a picture of me with it for proof that I own #2094. Shame my webcame was blurry though.

Love it so far.
Really looks well made. Blade is perfectly centered, and lockup is crazy solid. No play at all...I never would have thought a folder could be this close to a fixed blade.

I just bought this morning some black Ray Ban Wayfarer (classic model, not the recent one). I was doubting between these and the Aviator, though. Just cool

Zara is having some legit sales right now so I picked up a sweater, 3 shirts and a pair of jeans.
$103 in total whereas if not for the sale I'd be paying minimum over $200 for all these items in the best case.

Bought a Magic Mouse for my Macbook Pro today for $75.
My Macbook is my "professional" laptop that I use for school and work, so yeah.
I regret nothing....so far.
Aside from that I picked up the iOS version of San Andreas so I can play on my iPad when I'm not home and am bored out of my mind. It's surprisingly not that bad, R* did the best they could translating the controller layout on to the mobile platform. I also like that it has checkpoints for missions and a little "preview" of whatever it is you're about to buy so you don't actually have to select it to see it on CJ.
I need to stop spending though.

Picked up AM by the Arctic Monkeys today.
Pretty good album. It's been a while since I liked most of the songs on an album.

Czech Social Democrats Set to Influence Shape of Austerity
A big electoral year that saw a sharp shift in voter preference from centrist to right-leaning parties, fueled by fears of Greek-style default risk, draws to a close in the Czech Republic this weekend with the runoff of the senatorial race.
The Social Democrats, or CSSD, who since May's parliamentary elections are in opposition, are poised to take the upper hand in the Senate, or upper house of parliament.
A Social Democrat-controlled senate wouldn't change the legislative landscape, but it would enable the opposition to reduce the breadth and speed with which measures such as fiscal budget cuts, social spending reductions and easing of labor market regulation will be enacted by the right-leaning cabinet.
