42,648/61 Claims. (Ci. 72-379) The present application is a divisional application based on the copending application of Adriaan Buys, Serial No. 240,529, filed November 28, 1962.
The present invention relates generally to containers of the type having a sheet metal wall and, more particularly, to methods of manufacturing improved threaded closure seats for such containers. In its principal aspects, the invention is concerned with threaded closure seats for the bung-holes of such containers and with methods of manufacture of such seats.
Heretofore, sheet metal containers of the type used for packaging, storing and shipping of various commodi ties, for example, oil and oil products, and other liquid, semi-liquid, pulverized or granular substances, have commonly been provided with an aperture or bung-hole in one wall of the container, which bunghole permits filling and emptying of the container. In order to allow closing and sealing of the container, a bung-hole bushing is generally mounted in the aperture and secured to the container wall. Such bushings are usually provided with internal screw threads adapted to receive an externally threaded bung or like closure member.
The manufacture of closure assemblies of the foregoing type has proved to be both laborious and costly, and has resulted in relatively heavy container constructions. Moreover, many manufacturing and constructional problems have been encountered, particularly where the container wall thickness is relatively thin. In an effort to solve these problems, attempts have been made to provide a construction in which the separate bung-hole bushing is dispensed with, for example, by forming the container wall with a closure seat which projects from and is integral with the container Wall and which has screw threads pressed therein. However, it has been found that it is extremely difiicult to press a sufficient number of threads in the seat, each having a sufficiently sharp profile to afford a liquid tight seal with a conventional closure such as a screw threaded plug or cap.
Consequently, it has been proposed that container walls be provided with integral polygonal collars projecting therefrom and having screw threads pressed in the flat sides thereof, thus forming a bung-hole closure flange having screw threads which are interrupted at equidistantly spaced points. Such a construction is disclosed in the copending application of Cornelis Andrianus Meyer, Serial No. 825,910, filed July 9, 1959, now Patent No. 3,076,670. While this type of construction has proved satisfactory in many instances, the present invention provides still another solution to the problems which have heretofore plagued container manufacturers.
It is a general aim of the present invention to provide improved methods for manufacturing threaded closure seats which overcome the foregoing disadvantages and which are characterized by their simplicity and adaptability to modern manufacturing procedures.
A related object of the invention is to provide a method of manufacturing threaded bung-hole closure flanges which permits of economical fabrication and which produces an improved threaded flange characterized by its sturdiness and reliability in use.
More specifically, an object of the invention is to provide improved methods for making an integral closure seat for containers which greatly facilitate the formation of screw threads in such seats and which permit such threads to be formed by relatively simple and conventional presses or like equipment.
In another of its important aspects, it is an object of the invention to provide an improved method of making closure seating arrangements, which permits the fabrication of a wide range of different size threaded closure seats suitable for receiving standard closure plugs or caps.
Yet another object of the invention is to provide an improved method of making threaded closure seats which permit the use of a wide variety of different grades and gauges of sheet metal for the container wall construction.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent as the following description proceeds, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIGURE 1 is a plan view of a portion of a container wall after completion of the first stage of the method for manufacturing a closure seat in accordance with the invention, the seat here being adapted to receive a plug.
FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. 1 of the same container wall portion after the second stage of the closure seat forming operation.
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the container wall portion with a completed closure seat embodying the features of the invention formed therein.
FIG. 4 is a view similar to that of FIG. 1 illustrating the initial forming stage for a slightly modified seat construct-ion, also in accordance with the invention, such modified seat construction here being particularly suitable for reception of a larger closure member, e.g., a 2" plug.
FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIG. 2 after the second stage of the forming operation performed on the modified seat, and,
FIG. 6 is a perspective view, partly in section of the completed modified form of closure seat.
While the invention is susceptible of various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments thereof have been shown by way of example in the drawings and will herein be described in detail. It should be understood, however, that it is not intended to limit the invention to the particular forms disclosed, but on the contrary, the intention is to cover all modifications, equivalents and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the invention as expressed in the appended claims.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, there is illustrated a novel seating arrangement for mounting plugs, caps and similar closures in the bung-holes of containers employing sheet metal walls. As the ensuing description proceeds, it will become apparent that the present invention is concerned with improved methods of manufacturing threaded closure seats of the type disclosed and claimed in the aforesaid application of A-driaan Buys, Serial No. 240,529, of which the present application is a divisional. For the purpose of simplifying the description and facilitating an understanding of the invention, an exemplary closure seating arrangement will hereinbelow be described in conjunction with methods embodying the invention for forming a screw threaded closure seat in a sheet metal wall 11 of a container (not shown).
In accordance with one of the important aspects of the present invention, provision is made for stamping, cutting or otherwise forming a generally star-like opening in a container wall, the opening defining a plurality of tongues which are then pressed so as to form portions of screw threads and bent out of the plane of the wall 11 to define segments of a closure seat having an interrupted helical screw thread formed therein. In the exemplary form of the invention (shown in FIGS. 1-3 after completion of sequential stages of the forming operation) the closure seat is formed in the wall 11 by creating a plurality of slots 12 extending substantially radially from a central point 18 or hole 13 in a star-like formation. The central hole 13 and the slots 12 may be formed in separate operations if desired, but they are preferably formed simultaneously. The operation or operations to form the central hole and the slots may, as well known to those skilled in the art, be carried out by means of a punching press (not shown) including a punch or male member having a cross=section corresponding to the shape of the hole with slots to be formed (for example, the hole 13 shown in FIGURE 1 which is provided with four such slots 12), and a die or female member having a hole of similar configuration, said members being reciprocable with respect to one another.
In carrying out the present invention, provision is made for forming screw threads in the tongues 16 defined by the slots 12. To this end, and during the second stage of the operation, alternating grooves 14 and ridges 15 are pressed in the tongues 16 (FIGURE 2). As shown in the drawings, the distance between the grooves and the inner tips of the tongues (and thus also between the ridges and the inner tip of the tongues) gradually increases in a counterclockwise direction so that together they define a generally angular or jagged spiral built up of straight line sections.
During the last stage of the forming operation, the tongues 16 are bent out of the plane of the container wall 11 until they project at substantially right angles from the container wall, thus forming a closure seat integral with the container wall 11 (FIGURE 3). It will be observed that the grooves 14 and the ridges 15 in the tongues 16 together form a helix which defines either internal screw threads adapted to receive the external screw threads of a closure plug (not shown) or external screw threads adapted to cooperate with internal screw threads of a closure cap (not shown).
In keeping with the invention, the tongues 16 are preferably bent slightly less than 90 out of the plane of the container wall 11 when the container is to be closed by means of a threaded plug. In other words, they slightly converge in a direction away from the container wall and therefore resiliently hold a plug screwed into the closure seating means with a force progressively increasing towards the free extremities of the tongues.
Alternatively, if a screw cap is to be applied, the tongues 16 are preferably bent slightly over 90 out of the plane of the container wall 11 so that they slightly diverge in a direction away from the container wall.
While the exemplary closure construction has been illustrated and described in conjunction with grooves 14 and ridges 15 which constitute straight line portions of an angular spiral (thus the grooves and ridges form portions of a true common helix after the tongues have been bent at substantially right angles to the container wall), the grooves, and thus the ridges, may also form the sides of equilateral polygons of increasing sizes, so that the screw threads formed in the bent-over tongues are not truly helical but instead consist of steps arranged along a helical path. In this latter case the yielding and resilient nature of the tongues will allow adaption thereof to the truly helical screw threads of the closure member.
In carrying out the present invention, the marginal edge 17 of the container wall 11 surrounding the feet of the tongues 16 and the dead ends of the slots 12 is also bent out of the plane of the container wall, thereby forming an uninterrupted annular connection between said tongues and the container wall proper (FIG. 3). This annular connection may serve as a seat for a sealing gasket and to this end it is preferably formed with a slightly curved cross-section (FIG. 6).
Referring to FIGS. 46 conjointly, there is illustrated a slightly modified closure seat which is generally similar to the seat described above. However, the modified form of closure seat is intended to receive a standard 2" plug, whereas the construction shown in FIGS. 1-3 is designed to receive a standard /4 plug. Accordingly, the central hole 13 in the modified construction is formed with a relatively larger diameter (suitable for reception of a 2" plug) in the order of 35 millimeters, whereas the slots have a relatively shorter length (in the order of 1012 millimeters) as compared to the diameter of the hole. Moreover, eight slots 12 and consequently eight tongues 16 are formed in order to obtain a better approach to a purely cylindrical seat with less labor.
The tongues 16 bent out of the plane of the container wall 11 may be kept more or less in a flat condition, but as shown in the drawings they are preferably curved in a plane substantially parallel to the plane of the container wall, the concave side of the tongues being directed towards the center 18 of the closure seat. A particularly advantageous embodiment is that in which the tongues are bent into the shape of circular arcs having a radius R and all having their centers coinciding with the center 18 of the closure seat (FIG. 6).
It will be apparent from the foregoing that there have been provided novel methods of manufacturing threaded closures which permit of ease in manufacture, yet which provide an effective and positive means for securing threaded plugs or caps to the container wall. Moreover, the portions of the screw threads can be formed while the tongues are still disposed in the plane of the container wall, thus permitting the use of conventional up and down presses or the like, rather than the relatively complex equipment required to form screw threads in an annular sleeve or collar.

Samsung Galaxy S III launched with Android 4.0.4 on board and the Samsung GALAXY Note II came to market with Android 4.1.1.
This year, the Samsung Galaxy S4 launched with Android 4.2.2 pre-installed which would seem to make it likely that Android 4.3 would come on the Samsung Galaxy Note III right out of the box. In Germany, Deutsch Telekom confirmed that the international version of the Samsung Galaxy S III (GT-i9300) purchased from the carrier will skip Android 4.2.2 and go straight to Android 4.3. This is expected to be the rule rather than the exception globally, another reason to believe that the Samsung Galaxy Note III will launch with Android 4.3 running the show.

Pain in right knee
Hi! I have been feeling an electric shock kind of pain while climbing stairs for a while. I have not been exercising for quite sometime due to busy schedule. The pain goes away with everyday morning walk or running or other leg exercises but returns the next day. I never had any major/minor leg trauma or accident. Is it my incorrect sitting posture or something else causing the issue? Thankfully I never faced this issue on left leg though. Whom should I contact for initial diagnoses? Medicine or physiotherapist or bone specialist?

If you experience pain in front of knee while rising from a low position or while climbing up and down the stairs it may be due to early cartilage damage called chondromalacia of the knee cap/patella. You need to consult an Orthopedician. He will examine you and may ask for an X-ray. You will need knee strengthening exercises too.

Hearty Country Meatloaf with Sour Cream Gravy
Recipe by Irmgard
This recipe appeared many years ago in Homemakers Magazine and since the first time I made it, it has become a family favourite. My daughter hates mushrooms, so I especially like the fact that I can chop them up finely and sneak them into the mixture and she is none the wiser! The cold leftovers make great sandwiches.
Top Review by Lizzie-Babette
I could've sworn that I'd reviewed this before, but I guess not, so here goes. This is THE BEST meatloaf I've ever had. I made it exactly as written, and it was excellent, and I've also made some changes/tweaks over time. I use super lean beef (~90 to 95% lean), multi-grain bread (with sunflower seeds, flax seeds, and walnuts in it), lean center-cut bacon, and a mixture of light sour cream with a tablespoon or two of creme fraiche for the gravy. Instead of ketchup, I use A-1 steak sauce (the bold and spicy is especially good), and I usually use at least a cup or more of the mushrooms (I prefer cremini). It's absolutely one of our favorite dishes (and until this recipe, I didn't even like meatloaf). There are other tweaks I may try (like flourpower's suggestion of adding chopped bacon in the meat mix), but this is just a great recipe. Thanks, Irmgard, for a real winner.

The Large Hadron Collider is entering the final stages of being lowered to a temperature of 1.9 Kelvin (-271C; -456F) - colder than deep space.
The LHC has thousands of magnets which will be maintained in this frigid condition using liquid helium.
The magnets are arranged in a ring that runs for 27km through the giant tunnel.
Once the LHC is operational, two particle beams - usually consisting of protons accelerated to high energies - will be fired down pipes running through the magnets.
These beams will then travel in opposite directions around the main ring at close to the speed of light.
At allotted points along the tunnel, the beams will cross paths, smashing into one another with cataclysmic force. Scientists hope to see new particles in the debris of these collisions, revealing fundamental new insights into the nature of the cosmos and how it came into being.
The most powerful physics experiment ever built, the LHC will re-create the conditions just after the Big Bang.
Currently, six out of the LHC's eight sectors are between 4.5 and 1.9 Kelvin, though all sectors of the machine have been down to 1.9 Kelvin at some stage over the last few months.
By comparison, the temperature in remote regions of outer space is about 2.7 Kelvin (-270C; -454F).
Roberto Saban, the LHC's head of hardware commissioning, said that in order to obtain high magnetic fields without consuming too much power, the magnets were required to be "superconducting".
This is the property, exhibited by some materials at very low temperatures, to channel electrical current with zero resistance and very little power loss.
Helium exhibits spectacular properties at 2.2 Kelvin - becoming "superfluid". This allows it to conduct heat very rapidly, making it an extremely efficient refrigerant.
No particle physics facility on this scale has ever operated at such low temperatures. But, so far, the hardware was performing as predicted, Roberto Saban explained.
"We have a very systematic process for the commissioning of this machine, based on very carefully designed procedures prepared with experience we have gathered on prototypes."
He added: "Our motto is: no short cuts? exchanging a single component which today is cold, is like bringing it back from the Moon. It takes about three to four weeks to warm it up. Then it takes one or two weeks to exchange. Then it needs three to six weeks to cool down again.
"So, you see, it is three months if we make a mistake."
Two sectors of the LHC are currently not cold enough for testing to proceed. Electronics that control the cryogenic systems in these sectors are being moved to an area where they will be better shielded against particles that shoot out of the machine during collisions.
Closing the circle
One sector of the ring is being run as if the LHC was operational and carrying a beam. This is so that crews can de-bug software and hardware and gain experience of running operating cycles.
The LHC's magnets must also undergo electrical testing. Each sector of the machine contains about 200 electrical circuits. Each circuit may consist of as many as 154 magnets or as few as one.
They are being tested for their ability to handle very high currents - up to 12,000 Amps .
"We power each circuit, making sure it goes to its design current. But above all, we are verifying that all the protection systems around it - which are there to detect an eventual quench - are operating as expected," said Roberto Saban.
A quench occurs when some part of the magnet starts to heat up, becoming resistant to electrical current. Engineers have built in a recovery system to detect these quenches before they affect the magnetic field bending particles around the ring and shut off the circulating beams.
The machine's cool-down should take another two weeks to complete, provided no serious problems are found. Electrical testing of the magnets may take another couple of weeks.
Before the LHC is "switched on" for the first time, the proton beams have to be boosted to high energies in a chain of particle accelerators called the injectors.
Once the machine is cold, operators will inject beams into the main ring, threading them through each independent sector of the LHC until they close the circle.
A timing, or synchronisation, system is used to ensure each of these sectors behaves as if they were a single machine.
When the LHC is switched on it will operate at an energy of five trillion electron-volts. It will then be shut down for the winter, so that the magnets can be "trained" to handle a beam run at seven trillion electron-volts.

Carl Icahn Declares a Victory in CVR Energy Fight
Carl Icahn has a victory, for now, in his fight with CVR Energy.
The billionaire has gotten a full 55% of outstanding shares tendered to him in his fight to buy the refining company, giving him the control of some 69% of CVR Energy.
Icahn first took a stake in CVR Energy in January and said the company should sell itself, before stepping in to offer $30 a share, or $2.26 billion, for the company himself. His offer came with a pledge to flip the company in a second sale to what he thought would be one of several bidders who actually do things like run refining companies. Anything he got above $30 would be returned to the old CVR Energy holders.
Today, declaring victory, Icahn looked to speed up the process, urging the company to move forward its annual meeting into this month. A date has not yet been scheduled for the meeting. Icahn needs to have the company's poison pill, installed shortly after he appeared, withdrawn before he can actually buy the shares that have been tendered to him.

The BVSD School Food Project (SFP) believes that all children deserve daily access to fresh, flavorful and nutritious food made with wholesome, and when possible, local ingredients so that every child may thrive. In addition to feeding students healthy meals, SFP emphasizes lunchroom education programs to increase students' food literacy and help them make informed decisions about the types and amounts of food they put in their bodies. All too often children have limited opportunities to learn continuously about food, farming and nutrition. Our program aims to help students make lifelong commitments that support better health and sustainable food systems.
In November 2015, we took over a greenhouse in an effort to expand our garden-as-a-classroom curriculum and support our 33 school gardens. We started over 6,000 plants to support schools, students and their families in creating a garden and growing their own food throughout the summer. This project will begin again in November 2016 and run through May 2017. In May, we'll host a Seed/Plant Sale, our major fundraiser for the year to support our farm to school and nutrition education work in schools.
Volunteering will include planting, transplanting, feeding, and watering. There may also be opportunities to work with school groups or student greenhouse interns.

London AgreementMature
Two days later in London England...
10:30am in London is a normal, chill grey-sky sort of day. The usual businesslike bustle of the city pays little heed to any one individual. This day, a lanky but good looking young man is crossing the Millennium foot bridge. He wears black pants and a black leather jacket that looks new. The collar of a pale yellow striped shirt barely peeks out beneath a dark red sweater under the jacket. His hands swing comfortably by his sides, kept warm in a nice pair of black leather gloves. His hair is dark and cropped short in a longish buzz cut. His gait is confident but casual. A slight smile crosses his thin lips as the sound of a couple of guys playing jazz on saxophone and trumpet drifts across the murky water.
A few streets later, the young man opens the glass doors of a large office building and enters a grand reception room, complete with dark wood paneling and a shiny black marble counter top with gracefully curving corners. A narrow faced woman with carefully crafted dyed-blonde hair sits behind the imposing structure, with a black phone to her ear. She acknowledges the newcomer with a slight glance, then continues her conversation. After a moment, she puts the phone down.
"Can I help you?" she asks, her voice neutral, her eyes bored.
"Yes. I would like to speak to Ivor Mylad."
Her expression changes just slightly as she becomes almost imperceptibly more interested in the stranger. "Do you have an appointment?"
"Mr. Mylad only sees people with appointments. If you would like to make an appointment, it will—"
"Please, maim," the young man interrupts politely. "I do not have an appointment, but I am quite sure the Mr. Mylad would like to see me. If you would be so kind as to give him my name and tell him that I am waiting?"
"I'm sorry. He sees people by appointment only."
"Then simply giving him my name will not be a breech of protocol."
"Alright," she said, after a moment's hesitation. "Your name, sir?"
"How do you spell that?" she asked.
"Do you have a last name, or is that your last name?"
"No, to both your questions. That name will be enough for Mr. Mylad."
"Alright," she said dubiously. "Please have a seat."
"Thank you." said Garith. He went and sat down in a plush waiting chair. He picked up a magazine from a small table in the waiting area and flipped through it uninterestedly. Time passed. After flipping through the magazine twice, Garith picked an article to read. He was nearly finished reading it when he finally heard the receptionist mention him.
"There is a man without an appointment here to see you, sir," she said respectfully into the phone. "I know sir, I told him that, sir." Pause. "Yes, sir. He said to tell you his name. Garith, sir. Yes, with an 'I'. How did you kno— Yes, sir. At once sir. My apologies, sir." She hung up. She then actually stood up and came around the desk to where Garith was sitting waiting. "Mr. Mylad will see you immediately. Please follow me."
Garith rose and followed the woman to the elevator. Two men in black suits met them when the doors opened. The receptionist gestured for Garith to enter the elevator. He did so and the doors shut behind him. The three rode the elevator in silence and got off when it dinged and stopped on the sixth floor.
The two suited and armed men escorted Garith down a pink carpeted hallway and into a large, many windowed room containing a large wooden desk with a large well dressed man behind it.
"Garith," said the man in a booming voice. He rose out of his black leather chair as Garith approached the desk. They shook hands across the wide desk and Ivor Mylad said, "it is a pleasure to finally meet you, Garith."
Garith nodded slightly, but did not return the remark. He took a seat in a chair across from Mylad. The suited men stood silently and stilly in the background.
"So. What can I do for you?"
"Well, I've been doing some serious thinking lately."
"Since you fired yourself?" Mylad asked, the expression on his wide face still friendly, his tone conversational.
"Yes, since then, and of course, some before, too," Garith said. "And I've come to some conclusions. I am tired of this life. I want to retire. And I know I can't do that while you have a ransom out for me. So here's what I propose. I will work for you for one full week. I'll give you information you need, and put my thorough knowledge of your enemies to work on whatever plan we form that will give you a jump start on taking them down. Then, once my week is up, you send me to a house on some little island or remote location, where you will fund my quiet retirement. You will never hear from me again, and I will never hear from you again."
"Interesting, interesting." Mylad tapped a pen thoughtfully against his clean shaven cheek. "I find it hard to believe that you would change alliances that quickly. I don't see why I should trust any information you give me."
"There is little difference between the two sides. The end goals may be different, but…" Garith did not need to finish his sentence, so he didn't. After a pause, he continued. "In all honesty, I still prefer the other side. But more than that, I want out. And I can't get out if I'm on the other side. So I'll make do with changing allegiances for a week, before I quit entirely."
"And you are here because you think I'll agree to this?"
"I do have valuable information that you need."
"I know this may seem counter productive, but I know you well enough to know that you don't trust us. So, why are you convinced that I'll pay up after you've finished your two weeks? Most people like advanced pay for work like this."
"I know. But you can't exactly give a retirement in advance… and retirement is really the only thing I want. Death and the kind of seclusion I'm asking for are practically the same thing in this game."
"As long as you remain in seclusion. Maybe."
"You can keep watch on me. And besides, I keep my word, even if you don't."
Sandra was perspiring. Not a lot. But enough to make her hair stick to her forehead. She watched the screen that looked through the Contrived Garith's eyes as if nothing else existed. For what felt like the millionth time these last few days she wished that she could hear what was going on.
She felt so helpless and disconnected, sitting in this bright little room with the still form of the real Garith silent beside her. And Dr. Malpus alternately busying himself with who knows what and watching the screen. Now he was sitting beside her, his concentration just as focused as hers. He was better at lip-reading than she was, and attempted to translate some of what was going on for her. But they couldn't tell what Garith was saying. It was terribly frustrating.
The conversation in the room went on for quite a while and ended in a definitive handshake across the wide desk.
"Oh, and Garith," said Mylad, "one more thing."
"Yes?" Garith paused before leaving the room.
"Why the change of clothes and the hair cut?"
"Who would take a person seriously who is sitting there in a black trench coat and long dark hair and asking for a normal life? Besides, it is giving me just a little taste of what it is like to be normal… to not attract stares, or averted eyes, when I walk down a street. I should have done this a long time ago."
Mylad laughed. "Welcome to the real world, lad."

Richard Childress, owner of Richard Childress Racing (RCR) joined the media prior to the Sharpie 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway. The following are highlights of that Q&A session: <B>Richard Childress: "Let me just set the record straight...
Richard Childress, owner of Richard Childress Racing (RCR) joined the media prior to the Sharpie 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway. The following are highlights of that Q&A session:
<B>Richard Childress:
"Let me just set the record straight on one thing. I released a statement the other day concerning Simpson and Simpson products. I can't say a lot more about that. There's no need to beat that thing back and forth. No one is going to win. There's never a winner in that type of contest."
Given that statement, what is your level of confidence in Simpson Race Products - especially their seat belts?: "They've always had great products and we still use Simpson products. I have no problem with their products.
Do you have a driver signed for the No. 31 car yet?: "No, we don't."
Are the seat belts in the cars that you now have on the track mounted similarly or differently than they were in the No. 3 car?: "Each driver has his own preference. This issue goes back to the statement. None of us had any idea what 'dumping' was or what the term 'dumping' meant. And today, these drivers in this garage area probably have their belts installed in a different way from Daytona."
Were you aware that the seat belts were not installed properly according to Simpson specifications before all this happened?: "Again, I don't want to keep going back to the seat belt issue. There's no way to win that deal. There's no way, at the end of the day, anybody is going to come out a winner. The way the drivers prefer to mount their belts, and you've probably got some here today, that have their own way and their own comfort level - even after Daytona."
Are installation decisions made totally by the driver - or do you get involved, does the crew chief get involved?: "Actually it is done with the crew chief and the driver. When we build a new car, the drivers usually come to the shop and sit there and adjust their seat and their mirror and get everything like they want it. That way, each time we come to the track the driver doesn't have to do it. There have been occasions when they didn't get to do that - like if there is a test, maybe they would adjust their seat and their belts a couple hours early, or whatever, for their own comfort."
You said you were satisfied with the direction NASCAR is going on these safety issues. Are you satisfied with the speed in which they're going?: "I think throughout the history of NASCAR, they've taken the safety issues very seriously. The worst thing for all of us would be if they just reacted for the purpose of reacting. When it comes to fixing a stiffer nose or jumping in there and saying you've got to wear a head restraint, they've got to know that it's going to work in every situation. What happened at Daytona or what happened in different situations, may not work as well for you if you hit a car in the side or if you hit the wall or if you're flipping like Tony Stewart was. So yes, I'm pleased with what NASCAR is doing and the direction they're taking. I've been in this sport a long time - 36 years now - and throughout that time, I've seen an evolution of safety through a lot of different situations. And we all get smarter. We've all gotten a lot smarter over the years of racing from the time I used to drive a stock car with the gas tank sitting behind me and driving with a t-shirt on. We're all smarter today than we were in them days. We're smarter than we were two years ago. We're smarter than we were February 18th."
How pleased are you with Kevin Harvick?: "Very pleased. If any of you saw the race last night and the moves he made and the things that went on - to be able to come back from two laps down - I think it was a great showing of what the guy's made of. He's the real deal and I keep saying that. We're excited about next year. Kevin is going to run a Busch car for us. Jeff Green is going to run a Busch car for us. And we're going to have the two Sauter brothers (Jay and Johnny) running in the non-companion races. We feel that gives us an advantage coming back to the race next week."
Did you learn anything extra from the NASCAR Investigation?: "Yeah, the severity of the accident and how everything had to happen at one time for it to be a tragedy. I think I learned that out of it. I know a lot of the things that were going on as far as the computer models and everything, but there were some thing things that really surprised me as to how violent the crash actually was."
Have you had any discussions with Dave Marcis about buying into his team or purchasing his team?: "We had talked about that before, but now that we're all set with the direction that we're going with RCR, I'm going to be there as a friend to help advise him and help him do anything I can.
"We're set. RCR has a good future, a good plan, good drivers, great sponsors. We're very happy and we want to win races. We're putting together a program at RCR next year where these teams are going to be working together and helping each other. Now the drivers are going to rub each other a little, but that sorts itself out sometimes."
How did it feel with the drivers - Harvick and Green - getting together a little bit last night in the Busch race?: "I've dealt with that now for about five or six years. It's one of those deals where maybe the shoe will be on the other foot tonight (in the Cup race) and that would be a good problem to have. But these guys get over it. I used to race and I know how the tempers can get lost a little."
Do you talk to them about it?: "Yeah, I do occasionally. I haven't on this incident. On this incident, it was more or less a racing incident."
In this instance, would it be to tell Jeff that that's the way to race or to tell Kevin to calm down?: "I wouldn't tell him to calm down none. I'd just say you've got to do what you've got to do."
How do you feel about the fact that some of the teams don't have the sponsorships you have and are not moving forward in the positive manner that RCR is moving?: "I think it's still early in the year on that. I think there's a lot of companies out there still looking to get into our sport. We've got the greatest sport in motor racing. NASCAR Winston Cup racing is your best sport. Any company that wants to get in and get the most value for their dollar in advertising and marketing.....
"Look at Sharpie and America Online - new companies that have gotten involved. I'll assure you that they'll come along and tell you what a great investment it's been to be tied up in it. America Online got on this year. We've got a three-year agreement with them and we're going to make sure that's a great relationship. And there's still some great race teams out there that I know have a lot of great things working that should be announced (soon). As far as the health of the sport, I think if you'll look at some of these (TV) ratings and the grandstands and the national media coverage and all the things we didn't get years ago, and I think all that's due to the media and the television coverage."
Will one of your Cup cars have the No. 3 on it next year?: "We're planning on making any announcements regarding the No. 3 sometime in the near future. We can't go there right now, but that will be an issue that we'll handle before the year is over or by the end of the year."
Emotionally, how important has it been for you to have some wins at RCR during this difficult period?: "I think so. I can't imagine how it would have been for all of us at RCR to have gone out and struggled on the competition side of the sport. Leaving Daytona, I didn't know if I wanted to even see another race. I just lost my best friend and didn't know what I wanted to do. But we knew after talking with the guys at the shop, we knew we had to go forward. That's what Dale (Earnhardt) would have wanted us to do. If anything, it's given every one of us more drive to do it for him."
Are you going to have a fourth car next year?: "No, it'll be a three-car team. We've really got some good plans. We've worked hard at this all year. Actually, Dale was the one that helped convince me to go to a three-car team. We talked about this when he did his third Winston Cup team. He tried to get me to do it last year. But we weren't ready at RCR to take that step. He helped me decide. We talked about the positives of a three-car race team. And that's probably one of the reasons that RCR has a third team today. It's just one of those things that will be in the future. Hendrick is leading the points with a three-car team. Penske is going to have a three-car team next year I think, if I understand the rumors. Roush does well with it. We don't want to be sitting here like we were in 1992 or '93 with one car if it takes three to do it. We want to be on the cutting edge of it. And we want to set the grounds for how good you can do it with three."
How has this transition been for you?: "It's hard for me sometimes to look out there and pick out the No. 29 car. But we're beginning to make that transition and make it work. To see the No. 30 car run and the No. 31 has always been there and the Busch cars have been there for the past couple of years. I think it's been good. It's been good for RCR and what we have planned for the future. It's growing. And if you sit still, and don't grow with it, it will pass you."
How difficult was it for you to make all these adjustments this year?: "It was tough to start with - not seeing the black No. 3 on the track or in the garage at the first several races we went to. You'd walk in the garage area and you'd look for the truck, you'd look for the car. That's after doing it for 16 years. It's just something that don't go away. With Kevin Harvick and that race team showing what they're made of, if positive. Kevin was set with AOL for seven races and we were going forward. Kevin was going to be in the No. 30 car in 2002. And for them to come in here and still come back and work with RCR and still sponsor a car, I think they understood the situation we were in. The very first thing I had to do was to take care of our foundation. The company was built on that race team. We had to get it back and get it going. And then we had to build everything as one whole corporation like we've been doing. To have America Online step in there and still work with us was just great."
With all the changes over the years, could you give us a briefing of how you've seen the belts change over the years and why you wanted them certain ways in your cars?: "For the first racecar that I drove, we went to the Army Surplus and bought a pair of helicopter belts. We had a chain hooked to the back of the car and had the belts mounted to it. That's all I raced with was a pair of belts out of a helicopter. I went through our museum and looked at a car I drove in '73. I looked at an old pair of those seat belts that was in a Modified car that I drove that had old Air Force belts. I looked at the way the belts were mounted in a lot of the cars that Dale drove from 1986. There are a lot of similarities. I don't have the specs on any of the belts from the time they started to where they are today. We went to the shoulder harnesses and then to what's called a crotch strap. Those are the things that have improved in our sport. You can remember looking back and seeing guys drive with helmets with leather sides to them. All that is evolution of safety. And NASCAR is right in front on everything. People don't realize. I don't think the media or the public realizes how serious NASCAR is about safety. I've been here for 35 years and I've been in that (NASCAR) trailer many, many times. And we talk about safety issues. It isn't something that NASCAR does on their own.
"The roof flaps (for example). We had a problem with the car's getting off the ground. And NASCAR talked to a lot of us. The roof rails - I could just go on and on with things that NASCAR has done. They're constantly working on things for now and the future with the computers, for example, that we didn't have back in the '70's and '80's. That just goes to show how serious they are about making these the safest racecars in the world."
Do you think there's a communication problem between NASCAR and the media that regularly cover this sport?: "Yeah, I have that in my business. Sometimes there are things (and I have) to apologize to my guys. Just like when we did our Cingular (sponsorship) announcement. I went down to the No. 31 team and apologized to them. They were some of the last people to know. I told them before the press knew - before it (the news) got out. I told them that I couldn't tell them everything that we're doing. That's the situation with NASCAR because it's your job to make a story of it. And if it's a story before it becomes something, it's hard to really work on things. If I would have told everybody in my shop that I was working on America Online or Cingular, then everybody out here would have know about
"If you look at some of the horrendous crashes in stock cars and watch the driver walk away -- like Tony Stewart's car flip down the backstretch, Richard Petty's car flip, Michael Waltrip's wreck here at Bristol - and I don't think we give NASCAR enough credit for what they do.
Does RCR have a seat design program?: "Kevin Harvick has changed his seat design. Mike Skinner has changed his seat design. And I know Jeff Green has his own seat design. The driver basically does that. We're there to help them. We've got six or seven engineers to answer any questions they've got. Today you've got sled tests that we didn't have back in the '70's. Whoever heard of that? That was something you rode down a hill. Today, it's a tool to make these cars safer."
With Kevin Harvick giving you your 100th NASCAR win last night, what does that mean to you?: "There's been a lot of tears and it's been a lot of fun doing it. To win 100 is just unbelievable. I know it hasn't been 100 Winston Cup races, but it is significant to win 100 NASCAR races. If you'd have asked me that in '81 when I got out of the car, it's something I never dreamed of. Those 100 wins came from a lot of people, a lot of dedication, a lot of great sponsors. That's why RCR has got those wins. It's not Richard Childress, but I'm pleased to be a part of it."

This napkin holder is so cute and colorful! Measures 5 5/8" tall (at tallest), 5 ½" long, and 3" wide (the napkin holder part is 1 5/8" wide). Excellent condition!
This listing has an excellent, like new condition Prayer Lady wall plaque! Made by Enesco, this line is known as Mother in the Kitchen as well as by Kitchen Prayer Lady. This wall plaque measures 7 ¼" long (at longest), 4 1/8" wide (at widest), back is stamped #-3349, and she still has the original Enesco silver and red foil/sticker/label. She appears new and unused with no evidence of use or wear to the Prayer lettering. Outstanding item!
Excellent condition clear glass egg plate for deviled eggs!
These neat aluminum plates were probably originally part of a picnic basket set. They are very colorful, there's a red, a light copper or bronze color, a teal blue, and a yellow/gold color. Plates are in nice vintage condition with evidence of use (minor dents and dings) as can be seen in photos. Nice items!
All Items : Pottery and Stoneware : Shawnee : Pre 1970 item #1255481 (stock #M4372)
Lin's Antiques and Collectibles
Shawnee's Sunflower items are rather difficult to find! I purchased these together – they apparently have been together a long time – so I'm selling them together. The shakers are the larger size at 5 ¼" tall. They have slight discoloration at the shaker holes – not unusual on stove-top shakers – and the cork stoppers have fallen inside. Marked USA. The sugar measures 4 ¾" tall (to top of knob type handle on lid) and 3 ¾" diameter at top opening. Marked USA...
Lin's Antiques and Collectibles
I purchased this neat Kreiss napkin lady to add to the two ladies I have in my collection. Unfortunately, I failed to remember that my ladies are the shorter size so I'm listing this pretty green napkin lady for sale. She measures 10 ¼" tall (at tallest) and will hold a candle in the top of her hat. She's decorated with rhinestones and she's in excellent condition. Bottom is stamped: "Kreiss 1959" and she has a tiny "Japan" paper sticker. Super addition to a collection!
All Items : Pottery and Stoneware : McCoy : Dinnerware : Pre 1990 item #1228259 (stock #3895)
This McCoy pink and blue listing is a shaker set! These are the stove-top shakers (have little handles) and are in very good condition. The pepper has craze marks – they are not breaks, just crazing, which is not unusual with clear over-glaze items. It also has a production flaw in the handle (looks like a break that was fired closed) and there is a flaw in the pink stripe. Nice set, nicely priced to reflect the imperfections.
All Items : Pottery and Stoneware : California : Pre 1970 item #1217044 (stock #M4357)
Neat Distlefink covered butter dish by Cleminson's Pottery! In excellent condition with no evidence of "use" – there is a teeny production bump/blemish on the end of his tail, it is production and is not detrimental. Cute item!
Excellent condition 4 cup Pyrex coffee pot! It has no chips, dings, or "use" evidence but it does not have its perk stem or basket.
All Items : Pottery and Stoneware : Pre 1990 item #1217037 (stock #M4352)
Lin's Antiques and Collectibles
I purchased this Hall teapot when it was offered by the company in the 1980's!
It is a company re-issue of the donut hole teapot, is a beautiful dark blue (cobalt) color, and is in excellent, never used condition.
Bottom has: Hall Classics, Hallclassics.com, 3116, Made in USA.
Super item that is collectible and usable!

This little launder sprinkler is not your everyday find – it's an elephant with upraised trunk! The trunk holds the metal sprinkler/top that appears to be the original. Measures 7 ¼" tall (at tallest), 4 ¾" wide (at widest), and is in excellent condition. Super addition to a collection!
Excellent condition Enesco Prayer Lady shaker set! The salt shaker has a tiny production fired-on flake on back – not detrimental – that's it!
I've grouped these lovely Enesco Prayer Lady items into one listing! There's a napkin holder and a salt and pepper set. Napkin holder is in excellent condition – has a production non-color dot on her dress just below her apron. The shakers are in super condition with the only "use" evidence being a teeny, teeny, ding on apron edge of the pepper shaker (really not worthy of mention). The set has the original rubber stoppers which have age hardened...
This listing has the larger size Christmas tree shaped tray made by Holt Howard! Tray measures 13 ¾", back has copyright date of 1959, Holt Howard, has the original Holt Howard sticker/label, and is in the original box! Tray is in wonderful condition with a couple teeny flakes of missing color (one on tree "trunk" and one on edge – neither are detrimental). Nice item, nicely priced!
This listing has King's Crown wine glasses and cordials – 2 of each!
Wine glasses measure 4 ½" tall, cordials measure 3 ¾", and all 4 are in excellent condition!
Wine glasses measure 4 ½" tall, cordials measure 3 ¾", and all 4 are in excellent condition!
This listing has an Enesco Prayer Lady spoon rest! She measures 5 ¾" long (at longest) and 3 ¼" wide (at widest). Spoon rest is in wonderful condition – she has a teeny glaze flake of missing color on her hair (in front) and a super teeny one on end of her nose (I could feel it but it's only visible with a magnifying glass!). as often happens with these spoon rests, tips of shoes have been color touched-up. Very nice item, nicely priced to reflect minor imperfections!
Excellent condition shaker set! Made by Enesco, shakers are from the pretty Prayer Lady (Mother in the Kitchen) line. These have pink "dresses", dark brunette color hair, and measure 4 ¼" tall (at tallest). Very pretty!

text: Worked example Andrew runs a supermarket in which he resells all his goods – he does not convert any GST-free goods into taxable products. Andrew looks at his records to check his total stock purchases for quarters 1 and 2 and works out the percentage of GST-free purchases, based on a sample of two four-week periods (June–July). The percentage will be the same for GST-free sales. Purchases Andrew works out that his: total stock purchases for quarter 1 are $203,000 percentage of GST-free purchases is 49% total GST-free purchases for quarter 1 are $99,470 (49% x $203,000). Sales Andrew works out that his: total stock sales for quarter 1 are $219,500 percentage of GST-free sales will also be 49% total GST-free sales for quarter 1 are $107,555 (49% x $219,500). Other quarters Andrew works out that his: GST-free percentage is for quarter 2 is also 49% GST-free purchases for quarter 2 are $105,350 (49% x $215,000) GST-free sales for quarter 2 are $122,500 (49% x $250,000). After examining his purchases for quarters 3 and 4, Andrew works out that 45% of his stock purchases are GST-free, rather than 49%. He works out his GST-free purchases and sales for quarters 3 and 4 using this new percentage. Andrew records the results for these quarters, and for the whole year, in a summary (see the table Andrew's purchases and sales record for the whole year). Andrew then chooses one of the following three options for calculating and reporting GST: calculating and reporting quarterly (or monthly) paying or claiming quarterly but lodging a report annually reporting annually and paying a GST instalment amount quarterly. The following pages show what would happen if Andrew selected: Option 1: to calculate GST and report quarterly (or monthly) Option 2: to pay or claim quarterly but lodge a report annually Option 3: to pay a GST instalment amount.

I reside in Sarnia, Ontario Canada, where I was born and raised. After a career of more than 20 years in Public Service I was forced to 'retire' due to illness. I try to keep myself busy by working on local history and genealogy research when the weather and my health permit. One of my goals is to photograph every headstone in Lakeview Cemetery here in Sarnia (many thousands) and try to find the corresponding obituary and funeral notices in the local newspaper microfilms. So, if anyone out there had relatives in the Sarnia, Ontario area who were buried here, send me their name and dates and I'll see what I can 'dig up' for you. I have more than 30 yrs. experience in genealogy research in Sarnia - Lambton and know the local sources fairly intimately. I look forward to lending a helping hand. I see here that Canadian Postal Codes are not accepted, so I'll just say that Sarnia is across the River St. Clair from Port Huron, Michigan.

The "Rack Royale" in question belongs to Miss Harmony Reigns of London, England. Harmony has big jugs but don't hold that against her. On second thought, go ahead. A high-energy brunette, Harmony goes the Full Monty. She strips, she dances, she masturbates, she does hot modeling on British TV and she does porn. Fetish. Cosplay. Underwater. She does it all. Sex is her hobby too.

The Attunity Blog
Hard to believe that this year's Teradata PARTNERS 2016 conference, is over. After a year of planning, it was great to be on-site in Atlanta, Georgia at the conference. For those who have never attended, Teradata PARTNERS is the premier, customer-led global data conference.
Attunity & Hortonworks – Three Ways to learn more about how to accelerate real-time data ingest into Hadoop
This blog article was written with our partner Hortonworks, who is well known for their open source distribution of Hadoop or Hortonworks Data Platform for data-at-rest, also adds a data-in-motion solution (Hortonworks DataFlow) to enable organizations to manage all their data. Lisa Sensmeier, Director or Partner Alliances at Hortonworks and I describe our partnership and how you can learn more about the solutions to accelerate real-time data ingest into Hadoop.

Attunity, Teradata and the American Cancer Society-Working Together to Finish the Fight Against Cancer
It was 26 years ago that I heard words that forever changed my life uttered from my sweet mother's voice, "Meet me at the hospital. The doctors think I might have cancer." At the time, I was a young girl about to start my career and I was thrown in the middle of a gut wrenching real life problem with no data.
The Attunity team has the pleasure of discussing the future for the HPE Software, especially HPE Vertica and HPE IDOL. We thoroughly enjoyed the key integration of our products, as well as, the keynote, where our software was showcased to the entire HPE community and attendees.
Analytics is both the lifeblood and livelihood of digital native companies such as Google and Facebook which thrive by analyzing the data generated by their Web position to drive their access to and engagement with millions of people. This analytics dominance by the digital natives has been expanded by a number of older companies such as Apple which have successfully adapted to the digital economy. In response, companies in established industries have beefed up considerably their data collection and analysis activities. But how good are they in mining the data for new and profitable insights?
This past week, Decisionworx, in collaboration with The Bloor Group, published their findings from their 'Hadoop in Transition, From Proof-of-Concept to Production' survey 1 . The final analysis reports some interesting findings and may or may not surprise some readers who have been keeping up with the state of Hadoop adoption.
Attunity Positioned as a Challenger by Gartner in the 2016 Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools
Attunity is proud to be named a Challenger in the new 2016 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools 1 . Gartner, the world's foremost authority on IT research and advisory services, has recognized Attunity based on its completeness of vision and ability to execute.

Regency Mistresses(2011)
An omnibus of novels by Mary Brendan
The rake's rescue. Sir Jason Hunter could not let young widow Helen Marlowe fall into ruin when he could so easily help. His intentions were purely honourable, until the lady herself surprised him with an offer of a carte blanche! Helen told herself her offer was practical - as Jason's mistress she would be secure - but her heart knew better. One scandal led to another. To prevent a family scandal, Emily Beaumont must turn for help to the man who enjoyed vexing her at every opportunity, Mark Hunter. Mark was delighted to assist the delectable, witty, spirited Miss Beaumont but then he discovered that Emily truly was in danger. Two classic and delightful Regency tales!
