Fire-hit garage back in business
A commercial garage in Hampshire which was destroyed by fire just before Christmas is back in business, after fears that fifty staff faced losing their jobs.
An electrical fault in a damaged Jaguar sparked the fire which ripped through Williams garage in Otterbourne in November.
Refusing to give up, the owners have been working out of temporary offices.
They now plan to rebuild the entire business, including the village shop.
ITV Meridian spoke to owner of the garage, Pete Whieldon.
Pedestrian hit on motorway in critical condition
Police are appealing for information after a pedestrian was seriously injured in a collision with vehicles on the M3 at Otterbourne.
Officers were called to junction 12 of the northbound motorway at around 9.20pm last night.
A 73-year-old man from Winchester was walking along the carriageway when he was hit by a number of vehicles - at least two, police say.
He suffered serious life threatening injuries and was taken to Southampton General Hospital, where he remains in a critical condition.
The northbound carriageway was closed for around three hours for police to investigate and recover the scene.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Sergeant Tester at Totton police station on 101 quoting Operation Walburton.

T&F Kicks Off Indoor Season with 12 Big Sky Qualifiers at ISU
Related Links
POCATELLO, Idaho – Jan. 18 – SUU Track and Field kicked off the season with a bang as the T-Birds recorded a dozen Big Sky qualifying marks at Idaho State's Snake River Open. Several athletes also earned places within the school record books with top meet finishes.
"This was a really good meet for the team," head coach Eric Houle said. "Many of these athletes had not competed since May, but they really haven't missed a beat. Our goal this weekend was to give them a chance to get back into competition and they did even better than I had expected."
Sister and brother duo Kayla Kovar and Jason Kovar led the Thunderbirds with two Big Sky qualifying marks each as they dominated their respective throwing events. Kayla Kovar improved her Southern Utah record in the weight throw by about three inches with a first-place mark of 61-9, while also leading in the shot put with a 52-8 toss. Jayson Kovar followed his sister's example with first-place marks of 53-5.75 in the shot put and 56-0.5 in the weight throw, ranking fourth and ninth respectively in the school record books.
Sprinters Shaun Murray and Preston Myers also posted a total of four conference qualifiers as they both recorded top-three finishes in the 60-meter and 200-meter dashes. Murray took the title in the 60-meters with a time of 6.85, followed by Myers with a second-place time of 6.89. Utah Valley's Nicholas Taylor (21.73) bested the pair in the 200-meters, but Myers and Murray still qualified with a second-place time of 21.94 and third-place time of 22.09, respectively.
Arnold Carrillo also raced to a first-place finish at the Bengal-hosted meet, recording a 49.12 finish in the 400-meter run and falling only .02 seconds short of a conference qualifier.
Brigham Young transfer Russell Nielson led the jumpers on the men's side in his first appearance since joining the Thunderbird program. Nielson leapt to an individual title in the high jump with a Big Sky qualifying mark of 6-8.75 and recorded a third-place mark of 19-10.25 in the long jump. His high jump finish also ranks fourth in SUU's all-time top ten.
Multi athlete Shaye Springall led the women at Idaho State as she recorded first-place finishes in each of her three events. Springall qualified for the Big Sky championship in the 60-meter hurdles with an 8.50 finish and in the high jump with a mark of 5-7, falling only one inch short of the SUU all-time record of 5-8 which she set in 2011. She also led the field in the long jump with a mark of 17-10.25.
Fellow jumper Taylir Garrison followed right behind Springall in the high jump, recording a second-place mark of 5-5. Garrison's mark ranks sixth in Southern Utah's records and also qualifies her for a berth at the conference championship.
Freshman sprinter Kayla Shakespeare made her collegiate debut with an individual title in the women's 60-meter dash, recording a fourth-best Southern Utah record of 7.73. Shakespeare also finished third in the 200-meter dash with a time of 25.96.
The indoor season will continue next weekend when the T-Birds travel to Flagstaff, Ariz., for the Lumberjack's NAU Invitational on Jan. 24-25.

Hi folks,
I am new to this forum and would really appreciate any help that your collective years of experience and expertise might offer.
The problem I have (for a couple of weeks now) with my 1992 Fleetwood (FWD) 4 DR (75,000 kms) is that when I start my car in the cold the Traction Active (lower rt.blue light) comes on for no apparent reason. When the Traction comes on I hear a pump or motor kicking in under the hood, it will run for 15 sec. to a minute or two. I haven't even gotten into the car yet, just letting it warm up, which it does excellently! Now is the fun part! When I pull out of the drive and put it into Drive to go forward from a dead stop - the Traction comes on and the brakes (not sure which wheels) grab so badly I have to accelerate out of it (2 or 3 seconds). This freaks me out because I have been at a stop light when this has happened and start to accelerate and the grab gets me right away. I am afraid someone following too close is going to end up in the back of me! As usual it doesn't happen all the time and mostly from a cold start. Sometimes the ABS and Traction upper Amber lights come on and then I know there is no fear of the symptom occurring while they are lit. When I took it into the GM/Caddy dealership a couple weeks ago the blue traction light (and motor) was coming on but there was no break grabbing happening at the time. They did a diagnostic on the ABS module with a bi-directional scanner I guess (I don't know if the codes could be pulled from the CCC) and this is what I was given as a print out...
Scan Test ABS;Hist DTC 33,37,RR & LR speed sig. circuit missing;Record & Clear;No re-sets;soak harness & sensor area;NP Resets;RT rear sensor 950 ohm, LR 1040 ohm;Sensor outputs each 250 to 400 millivolt AC;No fault when tested.
Can anyone in this vast knowledge base advise me on what their take on this phenomenon is? Does anyone know what lies ahead for me?
Cheers, Tom

Burnley 4-0 Ipswich
- From the section Football
Ipswich suffered a sixth straight defeat as goals from Sam Vokes, Jay Rodriguez and a Chris McCann brace saw them thumped at Burnley.
Loanee Vokes gave the Clarets the lead when he glanced in a header from a Keith Treacy corner.
Clarets captain McCann tapped in a Junior Stanislas cross just before the break and rifled home a second after good work by Treacy down the right.
And Rodriguez blasted in a fourth as the Clarets earned back-to-back wins.
The victory was nothing more than the Lancashire side deserved with 24 attempts to Town's two, with keeper Lee Grant barely troubled as he kept Burnley's first clean sheet in 10 games.
The home side were on the front foot from the start with Rodriguez denied by Arran Lee-Barrett and Treacy firing wide, before Vokes gave them the lead with his first goal since signing .
The Clarets doubled their advantage on the stroke of half-time when Stanislas jinked his way through the Ipswich defence to tee up McCann to tap past Lee-Barrett.
The skipper grabbed his second when he latched onto the end of a Treacy pass to slot home, before Rodriguez had the final say when he thundered in a left-foot strike into the top corner to give manager Eddie Howe all three points on his 34th birthday.
Burnley manager Eddie Howe:
"The second half was enjoyable. I don't think I've had many second halves here at Turf Moor in my short reign that have been as enjoyable as that. I thought we were excellent.
"It was a strange game in the fact that we created so many chances. I think we could have probably scored double the four that we did.
"Jay Rodriguez had chance after chance and to be fair to him he kept going and got the reward for an excellent individual performance.
"But what pleases me more is the team effort. We were really good in the second half."
Ipswich manager Paul Jewell:
"I feel physically sick. There's a lot of people with big reputations in that changing room. People keep on telling us what an experienced team and what good players we've got.
"They can all talk the talk but at the minute they're not doing it.
"It's unacceptable. I'm embarrassed walking past those supporters of ours who've travelled all that way to watch absolute garbage.
"Ultimately it's my responsibility and some of the stuff that is going on in there is not what we've been preaching. In fact, none of it is."

Alain Silver and James Ursini have produced yet another book on film noir. This time they look at the graphics used to market noir movies. The book titled 'Film Noir Graphics: Where Danger Lives' is lavishly illustrated with over 300 full color posters, lobby cards, and other marketing handouts. All the graphics are rendered in high resolution from pristine originals. Many items I have not seen before, and quite a few are for more obscure films that will whet the appetite of many a noir fan.
Whether the US$40 price-tag is value for money is debatable. The internet is a treasure trove for poster addicts, with such sites as movieposterdb.com offering free downloads of high-res images organized in a searchable database. It comes down to the value you place on the commentary, which does offer some insights. What is missing is a wider survey of the role of graphics in movie marketing, and a behind the scenes look at who the artists were and how the material was produced.
You can buy the book from Amazon. An eBook version is not currently available.

In traditional robotic welding environments, parts were held in place with dedicated
tooling sensors and custom fixtures (jigs). Although effective, custom fixtured
machinery can be expensive and limiting. Hard tooling does not allow for quick
part changeover, part-to-part variations, or enable efficient workcells that
can tackle multiple tasks. Traditional welding systems also required parts
be moved manually into the workcell for hand welding and inspection.
Contemporary welding manufacturing environments demand flexibility and
require frequent product changeovers whenever necessary. Constant pressure
exists in the manufacturing environment to provide higher quality parts faster
and in smaller runs to satisfy customers. In a welding system, this is done
with multiple industrial robots adapted with simple grippers that allow the
robot to manipulate the part from every angle, achieve 360° welds, and
better overall weld positioning. This flexible fixturing with
robotics is less expensive, improves product quality, and increases manufacturing
In the following example, the robot equipped with a simple gripper picks
up work pieces from random bins or trays. Flexible and low-cost robotic welding systems such
as these eliminate dedicated peripheral devices and labor for part feeding
and aligning. Lower cost, simple grippers are also used which eliminate the
need for part present sensors.
Automatic Workpiece Feeding for Welding Applications
Welding Process
Manual operations traditionally transferred workpieces into the workcell.
Now, a robot with FANUC Robotics' integrated iRVision can be used to find and pick the parts. iRVision
can be trained to locate different parts and sort them, or determine whether
or not they pass inspection before or after the weld. iRVision
tools can also be used in the actual workcell to adjust the off-line program
to the actual workpiece.
Shown below is a TripleARM system in which two M-20iA
robots together with an ARC Mate 100iC are controlled by a single controller to provide flexible programming and
improved capability. The M-20iA robots'
integrated through arm cables improve motion range and increase flexibility
for a variety of conditions. iRVision 3DL
allows loosely ordered parts to be picked from bins eliminating expensive
complex tooling. iRVision also provides
part identification and robot path guidance which increases process reliability.
In this example, the M-20iA robots pick
exhaust pipes from bins while coordinating the pipe assembly with an ARC Mate
robot. This seamless coordination allows production of a wider variety of
A TripleARM Robot Controlling Two M-20iA
Handling Robots with an ARC Mate 100iC
As discussed in Using
Robots to Go From CAD to Part, off-line programming tools can assist
in creating a cost-effective welding environment. Off-line programming uses
a 3D CAD model of the workpiece to set up and program the system before it
is tested on actual equipment. It simplifies and reduces costs for system
layout, performing interference checks and estimating cycle time while conserving
critical workcell resources such as equipment and manpower. The off-line programming
operator can specify the welding path by simply clicking the line on the CAD
model. A welding program is then easily generated with the designation of
torch angle, and travel angle after the verification of both the robot stroke
limits, and that there is no interference between robots and work pieces.
In the completely coordinated example below, the R-1000iA
robot loads and unloads a family of products. A two-axis positioner with a
simple tool holds the part in place. The DualARM ARC Mate 100iC
robot with iRVision locates the weld seam.
Finally, the R-1000iA cleans and polishes
the product.

providing flexible programming and improved capability. An ARC Mate 100iC through arm welding dressout package provides
a wider motion range without the reliability of external weld torches. Through
arm cables provide off-line programming capability without touchup so a variety
of parts can be programmed off-line and there's no need to spend time to validate
on the actual cell. Due to its high payload capacity and excellent work envelope,
the R-2000iB robot provides flexible part
placement with excellent path control for coordinated motion. In the following
example, Dual R-2000iB robots with tool
changers dock various part fixtures while coordinating with an ARC Mate 120iC robot improving workcell flexibility.
R-2000iB/165F and ARCMate 120iC Welding Workcell
The following figure shows two QuadARM ARC Mate 100iC
robots with DualARM M-710iC Toploader robots providing flexible programming and improved capability. The ARC Mate 100iC robots with integrated through arm cables improve
motion range and increase flexibility for a variety of conditions. In this
system example, a variety of parts is picked from loose ordered racks all
while coordinating the assembly with QuadARM ARC Mate robots to produce high
quality welds.
QuadARM ARC Mate 100iC with DualARM
M-710iC Toploader Robots
Several successful flexible fixturing systems exist that are proven
to cut costs and improve production. For example ARCMate 100iB
robots, along with Dual Arm and R-2000iA
robots, have been used to weld after market mufflers. This system used several
key software features to create a labor savings and flexible model changeover
for the customer including Dual Drive simplified tooling and reduced integration
and programming costs. In addition, the customer realized an increase in production
and part throughput.
After-Market Muffler Welding
In another system in which no robots had been used previously, FANUC
Robotics' M-710iC robots are welding commercial
heating and cooling units. Using iRVision
for part ID to locate weld seams among various stainless steel models, the
customer was able to reduce labor costs and cycle time, while improving product
quality. Faster process times were realized versus traditional touch sensing
Robots are Being Used to Weld Industrial Heating/Cooling Units
ARCMate 100iC robots solved increased
labor cost issues and improved product quality for one industrial customer
welding transformers. iRVision was used
to locate and weld complex parts which also produced faster process times.
No orientation was required since iRVision
was used to locate the "flats" on each weld nut making welding
easier. iRVision was incorporated into
other applications within the same cell for an efficient and cost-effective
iRVision to Locate Weld Joints
In some cases, flexible manufacturing systems combine material handling,
spot welding and gas metal arc welding (GMAW) to incorporate an efficient
and proven weld and process technology. This is the case in which ARCMate
100iC robots, along with R-2000iA material handling and servo gun robots are assembling
a complex galvanized bumper assembly. Almost immediately, the customer realized
a labor savings with a system that handles frequent model changeovers at low
GMAW of Galvanized Bumper Assembly

My neighbors, or even my hoouehsld, only need enough water to drink, to cook with, and enough to bathe and flush the toilet with. If my family were to be paying my neighbors water bill, we would probably say you only need as much as we use, because we don't want to be paying more for them than we are ourselves. There is a demand for water since everyone in the world needs it to survive. Also, if people were to start watching how many gallons of water they used per month, they may feel self-conscious about it, and try to use less.

Orgy - Tangled Limbs and Thrusting Torsos The Sonic Gang Bang of Orgy
Orgy were the first outfit signed to Korn's Elementree label, and co-guitarist Ryan Shuck relies on seven-string axes similar to those of Korn's Munky and Head. But even though Orgy's music sometimes recalls the surging energy of the band that promoted them, the Los Angeles-based quintet is no "Korn Jr." The tunes on Orgy's debut album, Candyass, have more in common with the industrial/metal firepower of Marilyn Manson, the new wave flash of Duran Duran, the gothic gloom of Sisters of Mercy, and the rhythmic electronic pop of Depeche Mode and New Order. Orgy even achieved mainstream recognition with a propulsive cover of New Order's dance-floor standard "Blue Monday."
The majority of Orgy's unique ear candy on tunes like "Stitches," "Platinum," and "Dizzy," emanates from the dynamic guitar work of Shuck and synth axeman Amir Derakh. But if you're wondering how Orgy orchestrate their guitar passages, don't expect any clear-cut answers. "Obviously a lot of people don't care who is playing whateither they like the music or they don't," Derakh says. "But for people who do want to figure it out in our music, I bet it becomes quite interesting. For instance, and a lot of times I'll play what would almost sound like the bass rhythm, while our bass player Paige [Haley] plays a higher distorted sound."
Guitar.com: Anything to say about the name Orgy?
Ryan Shuck: We kind of justified it as a coming together of all sorts of different sounds. Of course, we're strip club monsters, but that has zero to do with our name, other than that we pull 'em in like flies [laughs].
Guitar.com: What does the title Candyass signify?
Shuck: A drag queen basically. We thought it sort of fits. It's kind of us making fun of ourselves, like, "Ya, we're a bunch of pussies who wear makeup."
Guitar.com: Would you call yourselves "technical" musicians?
Shuck: We're pretty gear-oriented, but we're not very technical as guitar players. We're not interested in solos and the typical guitar player approach. A note can say a lot when played over some sort of a progression. Less confusion is better. Derakh: It's mainly about melodies, sounds, and rhythms.
Guitar.com: Amir, what kind of synths do you rely on?
Derakh: They're pretty much all from Roland, who have cornered the market on that stuff.
Guitar.com: Who were some of your synth influences?
Derakh: While growing I listened to a lot of Allan Holdsworth. I was really into synth in general, whether it was guitar synth or Moog. Everybody from Gary Numan to Dead or Alive to fusion groups like Return to Forever, and the stuff Steve Hackett played in Genesis.
Guitar.com: What role do pedals play in your guitar work?
Shuck: A lot of my effects involve four or five pedals at once. We have hundreds of different pedals and we run them through almost anything. I use a MIDI ground control with them. And we plug into anything that will change the way a guitar normally sounds. We've used almost everything you can use on a guitar, and maybe some things we shouldn't have used. Whoever's in the studio just gets down on his hands and knees and starts tweaking pedals and sticking them through different things. If you turn the guitar on and its just sounds like a guitar, then something's gotta be done to it. That's the only rule I suppose, if there is a rule. We can get a cool sound and write a part from it, or we can have a part that's really cool and design a sound for it.
Guitar.com: Any secrets to reveal about singer Jay Gordon's lyrics?
Shuck: He likes for people to pick their own meanings out of a song. He will never give too much away as to what the song is about. He thinks that would demystify the song, and you wouldn't be able to adapt it as easily to your own experiences. The tunes are designed for you to "put on" and make them part of your life. A lot of them are based on real life and a lot of them are liesjust a bunch of bullshit and fairy tales.
Guitar.com: Does the band have a specific raison d'etre?
Shuck: The whole point of our band is to explore new things, but still write good songs. A lot of bands that are too experimental forget about songs. The songs count the most. If they didn't, than our music would just be noise.
Derakh: Yeah, we could have made a really abstract record, and that's not to say we won't, but at this point we enjoy mixing the abstract with melody and some good arrangements, to make the songs listenable.
Guitar.com: How would you compare your version of New Order's "Blue Monday" to the original?
Derakh: We love the original, and know that a lot of people hold it in high regard. So we knew we had to do it justice. The original was a dance hit with a straight line of dynamics, and we thought we would use our style of dynamics to add something to it. I don't think we really knew how it was going to come out until we were done with it, and even then, we were somewhat hesitant about having it on the record. But after we lived with it for a while, we really felt strongly about it.

Mitt Romney says he's going to take the bull by the horns tomorrow and talk straight from the shoulder with us about his Mormon religion – tomorrow. Sounds fascinating. Except Romney's burst of candor seems to have been sparked by Mike Huckabee's sudden rise in the Iowa polls. So Romney's real goal may not exactly be candor. In fact, candor may be the last thing he has in mind.
It's hard, at least for me, to understand exactly what Mormons believe. A couple of things seem clear. Sort of. Mormons believe two millennium ago, shortly after the last Apostles died, the early Christian church was corrupted by heresy. So Catholics, followed by Lutherans, Baptists and other Protestant churches have been following the wrong idea about Christianity ever since. For instance, the Catholics and Baptists have been wrong about original sin.
The Mormons also believe Joseph Smith, the founder of their church, is a prophet of equal statue with Moses. And, like St. Paul, God and Christ appeared to Smith in a divine revelation (in 1820 in a field in New England where he was given the 'Golden Tablets.') Of course, early on what got a lot of attention was the Mormon churches practice of polygamy. But that's pretty much a moot point now and certainly doesn't seem to relate to Romney, who's been married to the same woman thirty-eight years.
Anyway, maybe it's not exactly germane to the election but my curiosities aroused. What I would really like to know is: Are Mormon's Christians? I have asked Catholic and Baptist friends – more learned in theology than me – and they seem to doubt it. They seem to equate Mormonism with a sect. On the other hand I heard Romney say flat-out on MSNBC Jesus Christ is his Savior, which sounded pretty Christian.
So a debate between Romney and, say, Mike Huckabee on Mormonism might be fascinating. But Romney's trying to win an election and he's not likely to do it by telling Baptists in Iowa their church has been wrong for centuries.
Instead, what we're likely to get is Romney addressing concerns about his religion by making what amounts to a political chess move. By saying, 'I'm a non-smoker, a non-drinker, I've been married to the same woman for thirty-eight years and I have five wonderful sons who are all married. What more do you need to know about my religion?' It is a pretty good answer. But it's also an evasion.

Through Time – Slamming by Claudy Conn
Pursuit Series Book 3
Jazmine Decker, also known as Jazz, was left hanging in Through Time - Whiplash, literally. In this book we find her new Fae blood and her old Fios have joined together to change her into a more powerful being. She don't want to let go of her human side though, ever. Life in the Fae world has many good things, like Trevor, Frankie and all her new friends, but it also comes with having to fight against the Dark Princes and the abominations that the Dark King created. Can't a girl just get some down time to enjoy her hunky prince?
Prince Trevor of Lugh now has love in his life and with that comes the need to protect her. Not easy when it's someone like his Jazmine Decker, a strong independent type. And it don't help that they are in the midst of a battle to save the humans and themselves from the Unseelie.
All our old friends from the previous books have returned and the battle is on. Good verses evil. Pestale is as angry and power hungry as always and determined to escape the Dark Realm with all his father's evil creatures. Prince Breslyn managed to talk the author into plenty of face time, what a surprise. Not. To get the full extent of what is happening you may want to start at the beginning of the Legend Series. The series order is on Just Judy's Jumbles under Claudy Conn's Book List.

Ovarian cancer is the second most common gynecologic malignancy and the most common cause of gynecologic cancer death in the United States. The majority of ovarian malignancies (95 percent) are epithelial; the remainder arise from other ovarian cell types (germ cell tumors, sex cord-stromal tumors) (figure 1) [1].
Serous carcinoma, the most common histologic subtype of epithelial ovarian carcinoma, is regarded as closely related to fallopian tube and peritoneal serous carcinoma, based upon similarities in histology and clinical behavior. Some experts have proposed that these carcinomas all originate in the fallopian tubes. Based upon their common features, these carcinomas will be discussed as one clinical entity in this topic review. Distinctions between these conditions will also be addressed. (See "Pathogenesis of ovarian, fallopian tubal, and peritoneal serous carcinomas".)
An overview of epithelial carcinoma of the ovary, fallopian tube, and peritoneum is presented here. Related topics are discussed in detail separately, including:
●Pathogenesis (See "Pathogenesis of ovarian, fallopian tubal, and peritoneal serous carcinomas".)
●Histopathology (See "Epithelial carcinoma of the ovary, fallopian tube, and peritoneum: Histopathology".)

Spinal reflex control in healthy and ACL-injured women during a distracting task

Spinal reflex control in healthy and ACL-injured women during a distracting task.pdf
Female athletes exhibit three- to six-fold greater incidence of noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury relative to their male counterparts. The increased risk appears to stem from interactions between several risk factors, that can roughly be categorized as anatomic, biomechanical, hormonal, and neuromuscular. Neuromuscular risk factors have recently gained a greater focus, and include differences in the timing and magnitude of activation of lower extremity and trunk musculature. In addition to neuromuscular risk factors, the incidence of ACL injury is not evenly distributed across the menstrual cycle, suggesting that hormonal fluctuations may influence neuromuscular control. Finally, it is known that even well-trained athletes experience decrements in performance and postural control when forced to attend to multiple sensory stimuli, which is common in many sports. PURPOSE: To explore neuromuscular differences in the ways healthy and ACL-injured women respond to a secondary task requiring fine motor control and sustained mental focus (typing task). Our investigation encompassed three broad aims. First, we sought to determine whether ACL-injured individuals demonstrated similar reflex profiles to healthy individuals, as well as to determine whether the ACL-involved limb was similar to its uninvolved counterpart. Our second aim was to determine whether the typing task resulted in attenuated Hoffmann (H) reflex amplitudes, and to investigate whether any observed changes were similar in healthy and ACL-injured groups. Finally, our third broad aim was to utilize more complex H reflex analysis techniques to determine whether differences in spinal excitability existed at different points in the menstrual cycle. METHODS: Thirty nine recreationally active women (20 with prior unilateral noncontact ACL injury: 24.0 ± 4.5 years; 23.8 ± 4.5 kg•m⁻²; 4.1 ± 2.6 years post-injury; 19 with no history of knee injury: 23.8 ± 4.5 years; 23.1 ± 2.3 kg•m⁻²) agreed to participate, and were tested during days 2-5 (follicular phase) of the menstrual cycle. A sub-set of this original group (n=8; 24.0 ± 4.8 years; 22.0 ± 2.1 kg•m⁻²) also agreed to return for a second testing session 24-96 hours after ovulation (early luteal phase), in order to assess H reflex differences across the menstrual cycle. During each testing session, H reflex testing was used to explore spinal-level control mechanisms of the lower extremity musculature under both Rest and Task conditions. In the control group, the dominant limb was tested (CON-D) while in the ACL group, both the uninvolved (ACL-UN) and involved (ACL-INV) limbs were assessed. Differences between groups (Control vs. ACL) and within-groups (ACL-UN vs. ACL-INV) were explored. RESULTS: At rest, H reflex parameters in ACL-INV were generally similar to ACL-UN and to CON-D. However, differences in presynaptic inhibition were apparent in ACL-INV that imply reduced reflex plasticity. During the typing task, both the Control and ACL groups experienced attenuated H reflex parameters. In the sub-set of participants who were tested twice during the menstrual cycle, a significant increase in presynaptic inhibition was observed during the early luteal phase compared to the follicular phase. CONCLUSION: While individuals with prior ACL injury display similar H reflex profiles to healthy individuals, the ACL-involved limb may demonstrate less reflex plasticity in response to environmental changes. This lack of plasticity may potentially increase the risk of re-injury. In addition, an upper extremity task requiring fine motor control and sustained mental focus attenuates the H reflex in both groups. This attenuation has implications for lower-extremity neuromuscular control in dual-task environments. Finally, the increase in presynaptic inhibition observed during the early luteal phase may provide insight into why ACL injuries are not evenly distributed across the menstrual cycle.

I've been reading this site very much recently and have found it to be invaluable with the various opinions and information.
I'm from Rockland County NY, retired from the NYPD in 2010 after 20 years. Although I've carried since '90, I'm no gun expert by any stretch and it's only now that I've taken a deeper interest in reading about the various firearms and carry options.
I currently own the three guns I'd acquired through the NYPD: Glock 19, Ruger Police Service Six, Ruger SPNY. Also, just two days ago, I took possession of a new Seecamp .32. Also have a Kahr PM9 on order.
I'm sure that I can learn a whole lot more from you all so I'll probably remain in the shadows a bit but I just wanted to let you all know that I truly appreciate this site and hope to contribute in the future.
Be safe.

By Dave Klein (May 8, 2013, at 7:44 AM)
Everything was falling into place for CocoaConf Alt this June. We had secured space in the hotel directly next door to the big show, and we were putting together a phenomenal list of speakers. Ticket sales were better than we had hoped. All was well until we got an email from the Intercontinental San Francisco, saying that they had determined that our event was in conflict with Apple and that due to their contract with Apple, we couldn't use the space.
A flurry of frantic emails followed, but to no avail. We tried finding another venue close enough to make it work, but that didn't pan out either. Since many of our speakers had tickets and were going to be at WWDC, we had to be close enough for them to pop over without missing much of the action. Nothing within our radius was available at a price we could manage.
In the end, so that we wouldn't keep everyone hanging, we gave up on this experiment. CocoaConf Alt 2013 is officially canceled.
Anyone who registered will be receiving a full refund, along with a free pass to an upcoming CocoaConf event of their choice.
We feel terrible about this. We know that many were waiting to sign up and were looking forward to being in the middle of it all. We wish we could have pulled this together, and maybe we'll be able to next year, but for now, we need to put this behind us and turn our attention to the CocoaConf 2013 Fall Tour.
Our fall tour starts a bit early with CocoaConf PDX on August 15-16. Next up we'll be returning, for the third time, to Columbus, Ohio, on Sept. 27-28. Then we'll head to the northeast for the first CocoaConf Boston on October 25-26. Finally, on November 15-16, we'll wrap up in Atlanta, where we'll be teaming up with the Big Nerd Ranch.
P.S. To our good friends in Raleigh: We haven't forgotten about you. We're cooking up something special. Stay tuned for details.

Help with Swing out door into Breezeway/garage Brick wall!
I need install a door from house to attached breezeway which also has attached garage. The breezeway/garage were added on long after brick house was built. The door needs to swing into the breezeway.
The door on there now, which is a cheap 28" interior door, is installed completely wrong.
Rough opening on the inside of house side (drywall side) of wall measures 30" W by about 83" H between studs. The brick side of the wall, which is the side in the breezeway has a rough opening of 33 1/2" W X 83"H brick to brick. It looks likes when they made the opening in the brick, they made the width 4 bricks wide even and 32 bricks high even. Overall wall thickness is about 9 1/2".
What are my options as far as buying and installing a door and keeping the cost of the door reasonable? I don't want to get into enlarging the brick opening.
I would guess that I need a fire rated door here because of the attached garage. As a side note and possible option...The opposite wall where the breezeway attaches to garage does have a door opening but no door. Would one option be install a fire rated door between garage and breezeway along with fire rated drywall there? I was planning on putting up drywall in breezway anyways. Technically isn't the breezeway considered an interior space that is separate from garage.
But getting back to the door. What kind do I use and how? Does it really need to be fire rated? Do I frame a smaller rough opening in the brick with 2x4's and use a 28" door? Can I Just install a 30" door and screw into brick? Do I need to enlarge the drywall side rough opening of the wall. Wood frame or metal frame? Can I get by with a solid interior door and then concentrate on installing a firerated one like I mentioned above? I am open to any ideas but I don't really want to order a custom door if I don't have to.
HELP!!!! Thanks in advance!
Call your local Building Department to find if the breezeway is living space or not, requiring a fire door at the garage- or at the house. Call around for pricing of rough openings with shake/brick mold, jamb extenders/exact size, material, weather-stripping, etc.
Be safe, Gary
If your breezeway is conditioned and secure I would go with an interior door. Put a fire door between the garage and breezeway.
28" is very small for an busy traffic door so if you can open up the rough framing to accommodate a bigger door I would. If the 33 1/2" brick opening is straight and square enough you might just be able to squeeze in a 32" door (it'll be very close). For a thick wall like that I'd just build my own frame rather than get a prehung.
If the brick opening is just not quite enough for a 32" door you could get a solid 32" interior door, build your own frame to maximize the opening and plane the door width to fit.
This type of job separates the real carpenters from the "handymen".
I found out the best thing would be a fire door between house and breezeway which I ordered. After removing moulding around existing door I found no lintel in brick. It's been like this for 35+ years with no problems but its time to fix all the mistakes and do it right. I am posting a new topic for advice on lintel.
