Replacing a light fixture...Help!!!
Hi Guys....
I am trying to replace a light fuxture in our utility room. I know about white and white and black and black BUT there is a RED:eek: wire that I dont understand, is it a Ground????? Please help....
color some times not tell... use a voltage tester to test which wire is the hot wire...
More info please.
Is there a red wire, a black and a white?
Does the light in the room turn on from more than one switch?
This could be that the power source is at the light and rather than use a "marked hot" white wire to run to the switch, the person used 3 wire instead, tying the neutrals together at the light and using the red wire to carry power to the switch.
It could also be a three-way circuit, power at the light, where the red becomes the traveller and the two switches only had wire run to the light box. Red to Red,
GOT it.....woot
SO guys the red was for the black wire coming off the light fixture and the white went to white, I did the black to black and white to white and left the red uncapped and the switch didnt work.... so I tried the back to the red and didnt use the other black ones and (they were not connect to the old one either) it all worked....sooooooooooo this house was built in 1955, if anyone else needs to know what the red lines might be ....its Black....Woot thanks sooooooo much...I just kept running back and forth to the breaker and trying different things....hehehehhehe I am woman!!!!! giggling
Be careful there, red wires are not always substitute black wires, its not that simple. They are used for different things, to carry power back to a switch that will return switched power to where the source is, as a traveller in a 3 way circuit, etc. If there is a red wire AND a black, and you left the black wire hanging there are a few things here
1. Did you test the black wire for power?
2. Are you certain it is not attached to anything?
3. Is EVERYTHING else in the room working - other switches, outlets, etc?
CHances are, it was there for somthing. IF you took an old fixture out, was the wire connected then?
You really want to be careful of unused (potentially) hot wires in a box - the result could be a charred pile of lumber where your house used to be. Yours and or your family's safety is at stake, be sure about what you are doing with electrical - it is absolutely NOT a trial and error type of thing. We will be more than glad to help you figure out exactly what you've got for a circuit there.
help please
Don't overthink this...Hook the light up the same way the old one was.
The junction box has been prewired so it can also be used with a fan. Connect the new fixture to the same tow wires as the old one. Either the black or the red will not be used and should be capped off.

2 inch backset deadbolt on patio door
New here so naturally I am looking for some help. I have an old National lock deadbolt that broke. We are not going to be replacing the patio door until next year. Unfortunately, the deadbolt had a 2 inch backset and all the options are full replacements at around $90. I am just looking for the inside bolt. Any suggestions where to look?

Absolutely just call around to your local lock smithing shops. Chances are most of the houses in your area have had this same problem so the local guys keep specialty things like that around knowing it will sell.They should definitely carry what you need. Good luck!:thumbsup:
Local had a substitute but at $80. Just don't want to put money into a door that will be replaced. Home Depot has a Jimmy Resistant-Entry-Door-Deadlock-U-9970 that might work as a temp solution. New here so I can't post the link. Thanks.

Very decent board and I love it.
Such an all around sick board!!
By Crazy Colombian Momma
from Bend, OR
About Me Expert
I love this board because of its unique Double dog camber since it is easy to pop onto all rails in the park and get more height off jumps for a clearer landing. I am small girl so getting that pop has always been a stressful-I hated sacrificing a stable landing by having to buy a more flexible board which washed out often. It also rallies on groomers with a smooth and stable feel. I was also nicely surprised to discover that it was outstanding in deep snow since I am under 120 pounds. I am pleased with how easy it is to ride in any type of snow and I would recommend it to any female!
Awesome Board!
By NolliHD
from Rochester, NY
Got this board as a transition into more park-y riding, and I absolutely love it! The flex is perfect for buttering and throwing ollies and small spins off the ground. I've yet to try it on any terrain or features but I'm excited to see how it performs! My old board was prone to nicks and dings on the top sheet, but this one seems to be holding up well after a few weekends of riding. Love the graphic and coloration!
Rides like a dream!
By Morgan

This board is amazing on all park features and bumpy transitions. It is really flexible for presses and so much fun. I love the vibrant pink color, very girly!
By KMDBOARDER
from Missoula, MT
I LOVE this board and it has been a game changer in the trees. It is super responsive and got up on the 6 inches of powder easily with the reverse cambered even though it is on the shorter end for my height and weight.I'm 5'7" and 140 and I've so far found this board is perfect for my size for tree riding and powder and cruising even though it is suppose to be for park specifically.
By Kels
from Lake Orion, MI
Been able to use this board a few times this year already and I can already tell I am going to love it! The double dog technology is super fun to ride in the park and for just free riding. Good board so far and definitely recommend it!

Don began by explaining the importance of considering context of bible verses by using the phrase "there is no God." Which of course is not an advocacy of atheism when seen with the preceding phrase "The fool says in his heart"The Good Samaritan is not merely saying that we should be kind to neighbours. We need to consider this in its immediate context and in its broader context. The teacher is trying to test Jesus and asks Jesus what he need to do to inherit. Yet an inheritance is a gift.

Hugh Palmer on The Parable of the Nobleman – Luke 19
There are obvious traces of Jesus' own story here. It is not an entirely original account, however. It is likely that it was loosely based on something that would be very familiar to Jesus' hearers. Herod had gone to Rome to persuade the emperor to make him King. The Jews had send a delegation to protest. He had returned as king and massacred hundreds at the first Passover. This is a tale with lessons for the return of the King. 1. How to be a looser in the long run: Be a rebel in the short run. … [Read more...]
Don Carson on The Rich Man and Lazarus – Luke16
Is Jesus just saying that there will be a reversal of what happens on earth? Is it "Live well, end up in hell?" There are some contextual clues that suggest this is not the case eg. "Whoever can be trusted with little, can be trusted with much." "No one can serve two masters" Money easily becomes a master. We become what we worship. What we pursue, we covert.

Vaughan Roberts on Sex from 1 Corinthians 7
Well, after sharing here my pastor Tope Koleoso's talk on sex just recently, regular readers of my blog will think I am obsessed with this subject. Then again, I am a man! Vaughan began by saying that the first command in the Bible to Adam and Eve, loosely translated, was "Go and have sex."He began by explaining Paul begins by quoting them and countering their opinion with his own. The Bible honors both singleness and marriage, and is not anti-sex.V2-9 Paul seems to be implying that everyone sing … [Read more...]

of African Grey Parrots
Tail Feathers
This is to be used only as a quick guide and is not intended to replace DNA or surgical sexing. Most aviculturists are aware of the males being darker in color. This can only be based on the fact both birds originated in the same region of Africa or they are chicks from the same clutch. Also, hens may have a gradual dark-to-light transition of gray from the neck to the belly, while males have a more uniform gray in the same area.
Importers used the under-tail coverts as the guide for sexing. This should not be termed "vent area" or "ventral feathers." The under-tail coverts are directly under the tail feathers and consist of about 10 feathers. Feathers of the hens will be edged in gray, while those of the males will be solid red. Males will occasionally have a hairline of white on the edge.
This is not for babies, and should be used for older greys, approx 18 months and older. The pictures are not great, but they will give you a reasonable idea of what to look for. The grey on the hens can be 1/16th of an inch to almost 1/3 of the feather. I have seen some hens where you could see the grey edge halfway across a room.
Wing Feathers
Observe the birds from about 5 to 10 feet away while they are on a perch or hanging upside down from the cage top and flapping their wings. With this action, three bands of gray can be seen on the underside of the wing. The top band is the feathers making up the ventral antebrachial coverts. The band directly below is the feathers of the minor ventral wing coverts. The last band consists of the primary remiges. In a hen, these bands respectively "appear" gray, white and black. The male "appears" to have only two bands of gray and black. If you hold a bird, rather than viewing from 5 to 10 feet away and study this, your eyes "see" the actual different bands, and you cannot easily distinguish males from females.

Julianna Margulies Talks "The Good Wife" in More April 2014
Fans sat in shock after the latest episode of "The Good Wife" on Sunday (March 23), and now Julianna Margulies is opening up about the exciting series in the April 2014 issue of More magazine.
While striking a few poses for the Simon Emmett-shot spread, the 47-year-old actress opens up about her life on set and revealed her thoughts about the current storyline.
"What I love about the flashbacks with Will is that you get to see her true happiness in a moment where she's not thinking about anyone but herself," Miss Margulies explained. "And that's not a normal day for Alicia. always thinking about everyone but herself."
In regards about the hard work she's put into the show, Julianna stated, "I may work long hours, but I really love my job, Alicia is ever evolving. It's a challenge and fun and hard and everything that you dreamed you'd be able to do when you were taking acting classes."
She also noted, "Aside from an amazing cast, I get these great guest stars [including Fox, F. Murray Abraham and Nathan Lane], and I'm like, 'Really, I get to play with you today?' And I get to live in New York, raise my kid here and come home to my own bed every night."

Wow. Did Jeremy Hunt ever ask for trouble. He responded truthfully to a question about his personal view on the abortion limit — as did Maria Miller and Theresa May. By the reaction, you'd think they'd sponsored a private member's bill to change the law.
"My body, my choice!" The right of men to have a view on the subject at all has been questioned. Maria Miller has been painted as an anti-feminist who cares nothing for disadvantaged women. Hunt has been called "chilling", "ignorant", and a lot of predictable jokes about aborting him have been made.
All that abuse, I regret to say, comes from people I agree with. I think the current law's about right. Late-term abortions are extremely rare — only 1.4 per cent of the 196,082 abortions carried out in 2011 were over 20 weeks —and aren't exactly done on a whim. Each speaks of agony. The social ills associated with restricting access to abortion are well enough catalogued to need no rehearsal here. I think Mr Hunt is dead, dead wrong: and if he moved to change the law, it would be a catastrophe.
But we should also credit him with good faith, rather than paint him as a vicious misogynist wanting to punish vulnerable women for having sex. If you want to win an argument, rather than feel good about yourself by having a shouting match, it helps to stand in your opponent's shoes.
"My body, my choice" entirely misses the point when it comes to abortion. The whole thing hinges on the idea that someone else's body is involved. Leaving aside those who believe that life begins at ejaculation, everyone comes to this subject in broad agreement: at some point between fertilisation and birth, a foetus becomes enough of a human being that its life deserves protection under the law.
Very few think you should be entitled to abort a child in the eighth month of pregnancy, so absolutist talk of "rights" gets us nowhere. Likewise those who think a four-cell zygote deserves the same legal protection as a third-trimester foetus have lost the argument, and good thing too. The question is entirely about where you think the cut-off should come.
Medical evidence is useful; as is the social and psychological data. These are the things most of us use to help muddle towards an answer (along with less scientific questions such as "does it have thumbs?"). But neither can tell us definitively when something becomes someone.
So if you truly believe that a 21-week- old embryo is a human being — and there are a number of people who do — it doesn't make you a fundamentalist, an anti-feminist, or a cruel bigot to feel, and say, that killing it is wrong.
Savile's toxic legacy for charity
According to presenter Paul Gambaccini, Jimmy Savile deterred newspapers from investigating his shenanigans with young girls by warning them that the biggest losers from an exposé would be the charities he supported. Newspaper editors were softer-hearted in those days, apparently. In this account of it, Sir Jimmy's ostentatious charitable doings — those marathons, that tracksuit, all that yodelling — seem to have had a double purpose. Not only did they help inflate his gigantic ego, they served as a sinister sort of insurance policy. This is bad for Sir Jimmy's charities and rather bad for charities in general, too. Will we start to look with suspicion on public men with a show-offy line in charitable giving? I hope not. But it does make you wonder. I shan't name names.
Wise up: civil servants can't run a railway
The cock-up over the West Coast Main Line contract has provided us all with much innocent amusement but something very odd has come out of it, too. According to the BBC, it has provoked a great surge of public feeling in favour of renationalising the railways.
Eh? Problem: a comically elementary accounting error made by civil servants in the Department of Transport. Solution: hand the whole of our national rail network over to, er, civil servants at the Department of Transport?
I'm mustard keen on renationalising the railways, but this seems an eccentric occasion to make the case.
The Queen Mum — a critic to conjure with
"A recent invention: Aeroplanes. An aeroplane is usually shaped like a cigar, and has a propellor at one end and on each side the great white wings, which make it look like a bird. They are not quite safe yet and many, many axidents have happened."
The author of this unimprovable nugget of common sense is not Daisy Ashford, of Young Visiters fame, but the late Queen Mother, aged 10, quoted in a new book of her letters.
How one warms to her! Mein Kampf, she said, was "very soap box but very interesting". She warned Lord Halifax not to read it all because "you might go mad and that would be a great pity". Visiting President Roosevelt, she reported on lunch, finding "HOT DOGS" so exciting she leapt into block capitals in their honour.
Precocious historian; shrewd literary critic; discerning gastronome: so much more than a nice old doll in a hat.

The Nottinghamshire left-arm quick did not join the England one-day international squad in Southampton on Sunday and will continue to receive treatment at the National Cricket Performance Centre, the ECB said Monday.
The 29-year-old has undergone rehabilitation treatment there since suffering the injury during the drawn third Test with India at The Oval, which concluded on August 13. India won the series 1-0.
A further assessment will be made following Tuesday's first one-day international at the Rose Bowl to determine when Sidebottom will be available to join the England squad.
A replacement has not been called up at this stage but further consideration will be made following Sidebottom's fitness assessment after the opening India match.
The second game of the seven-match series takes place in Bristol on Friday.

It's a bizarre one even by Australian standards. A man in Perth has been taken into custody after he terrified motorists on the commute home yesterday by headbutting their cars, reports WA Today. And it was all caught on camera.
According to the police, the man crashed his Mazda, got out, and began leaping across lanes of traffic, headbutting cars. One witness, identified as Jordan, compared the scene to World War Z, saying, "wWhere the zombies just run into cars, he was exactly like that and I thought 'oh sh*t, it's the zombie apocalypse."

Bakhtiari (6-4, 299), a junior entrant, had a formal interview with the Packers at the Scouting Combine. He was the seventh-ranked offensive tackle entering the draft, according to our scouting sources.
The Packers added a second offensive lineman later in the fourth round with Cornell's J.C. Tretter.
Football runs in the family for Bakhtiari. An older brother, Andrew, was a reserve rush end at the University of San Diego from 2008 through 2011. Another brother, Eric, played defensive end for the Tennessee Titans and San Francisco 49ers (2012) and was a three-time All-American and USD's career sacks leader. An uncle, Dan Jackson, played quarterback at California.
Bakhtiari is one of the few bright spots for a Colorado program that has come on hard times in recent years. Another coaching change at the end of his third season in the lineup prompted the left offensive tackle to leave school early and declare for the 2013 NFL Draft.
While the Buffs haven't been the consistent producer of NFL talent, Bakhtiari follows in the footsteps of Nate Solder (New England Patriots) and Ryan Miller (Cleveland Browns), former Colorado standouts selected in the first and fifth rounds of the 2011 and 2012 drafts, respectively. With three years of starting experience under his belt, the junior is well-versed in the pro-set offense, along with the spread formation.
What Bakhtiari offers a professional team is a well-built athlete with a tireless work ethic, one that his coaches call a "gym rat" that usually has to be chased out of the training room late at night. It was common on campus for the offensive lineman to "lock up the facility," as the coaches would simply hand him the keys, tell him to "turn the lights out" and they would then head home hours before Bakhtiari would.
"You have to have the athleticism to play on the outside," he said, "and I think I have the athleticism to play on the outside but I have the leverage to play inside." He put up good numbers in the 40 (5.09) and bench (28 reps) at the Combine. Along with that athleticism, Bakhtiari's personal scouting report includes words like "aggression" and "finishes plays." More than that, he spoke of his maturity. "A lot of scouts asked me (why he left school early)," Bakhtiari told Packer Report at the Combine. "The biggest point was I thought I was mentally mature enough to take on the next step. I wanted to make this my career. I wanted to treat it like a full-time job and I wanted to be surrounded by guys who this was also their job. The big key someone told me is if you decide to go to the next level, you're going to be taking a grown man's job and steady income away from a working man. I understand that."
Bakhtiari has been compared to San Francisco's veteran left tackle, Joe Staley, who played a key role in the 49ers' divisional playoff victory against Green Bay with a gutty performance against Clay Matthews. On Twitter on Friday, Staley said Bakhtiari would be a "steal" in the second round.
"My (position) coach (at Colorado), Steve Marshall, he gave us a little scouting report to do on players he thought most resembled us," Bakhtiari explained. "I always liked the way Joe Staley played and I was fortunate enough that he picked the same guy that I felt that I had marked my game after. He's got good feet, plays with good leverage. He's not the tallest guy but he's got long limbs, plays to the whistle. He's a really good guy."
After redshirting in 2009, Bakhtiari was thrown into the fire at right tackle in 2010, starting 11 games while playing in all 12. He earned All-Big 12 Conference honorable mention from the Associated Press after producing an 89.8 percent grade for blocking consistency, the second-best mark on the team, behind Solder (94.3 percent).
In 2011, Bakhtiari took over Solder's vacant left offensive tackle spot and was recognized as a second-team all-Pac 12 Conference performer. He was also named to the College Football News Sophomore All-American squad. He suffered a severe knee sprain on the seventh play of the season opener vs. Hawaii that would sideline him for the Buffs' next two games before returning to the lineup for the rest of the schedule. He again finished second on the team with an 84.4 percent blocking consistency grade.
While Colorado struggled through yet another poor season in 2012, which ultimately led to the firing of head coach Jon Embree, Bakhtiari again was a bright spot with second-team All-Pac-12 Conference honors. He led the conference offensive tackles with 94 knock-downs, despite playing for a team that ranked 116th in the nation and last in the Pac-12 with an average of 302.75 yards per game in total offense.
Tretter was a high school quarterback who lined up at tight end as a freshman and sophomore in 2009 and 2010. He moved to left tackle for the final two seasons and was first-team all-Ivy League both seasons and an All-American as a senior by the NFL Draft Report.
Cornell has produced just seven offensive linemen that have been selected by an NFL team since the inception of the draft. Since the old American Football League merged with the National Football League in the late 1960s, only two Big Red offensive linemen have played in the league – Kevin Boothe, who was drafted in the sixth round of the 2006 draft by the Oakland Raiders before joining the New York Giants in 2007, where he presently starts for the Big Blue. The other player to enjoy an NFL career was center Greg Bloedorn, a free agent who signed with Seattle in 1996 and played for the Seahawks until 2001.
In 2012, Tretter dominated from his left tackle position. With 120 knockdowns and 13 touchdown-resulting blocks in 10 games, he was rapidly gaining the attention of pro scouts. He was selected for the Senior Bowl but didn't play because of a broken nose sustained at practice.

Shure Beta 87A Microphone Reviews
Worth every penny!
I\\\'ve been gigging with the Shure SM58 for a while now, and was looking for something better, something that supports my voice a bit more. Don\\\'t get me wrong the SM58 is a great mic, but quality difference between it and the Beta 87a is huge.
You\\\'ll read in the reviews about a smooth frequency response, this is 100% true. It picked up my voice all the way from the lows to the highs, playing in a covers band we hit quite a range of music. No matter what I sang into it, the result was the same, a clean, clear representation of my voice.
Now the pickup pattern, I don\\\'t know whether it\\\'s a proximity effect or just great pickup. My voice can be pretty weak in the pretty low sections of songs, get nice and close to the mic and it just powers out to the audience, the SM58 came out with a boomy mess in comparison. We can attempt more songs now I\\\'ve got something that\\\'ll carry my voice all through the songs. Also it picks up what it\\\'s pointing at, without feedback. May sound a bit obvious, but in some venues we played at the SM58 didn\\\'t like the gain being very high as the room was a weird shape and promoted feedback. Using this mic, was the first time I\\\'ve had to turn myself down!
To get the best out of it you\\\'ll need to use a bit of microphone technique, not just get as close as you can and belt out a tune.
I was a bit nervous using my first condenser mic live, in a pub. After the first song I was nothing but happy. After the first gig I realise exactly how good this mic is! 10/10, worth every penny.
Shure Beta 87A
Shure Beta 87A Supercardioid Condenser Microphone
If you have been looking for a good vocal microphone, I sure you will agree, there is no shortage to choose from. So how does one go about narrowing down the field, and being sure that they are making not only a good decision, but also the right decision for their specific needs? This is actually easier than it might sound. The first thing one must decide is to determine what the microphone will be used for, and under what circumstances or conditions that it will be used in. Next, it is always wise to go with a well known name brand when making a purchasing decision. A company with a good well known name brand, typically has earned its reputation by making good trustworthy and reliable products. A company with a reputation for quality is also much more apt to stand by their product if the item you buy has some type of manufacturing defect, or some other related problem. That is not always the case with a lesser known brand, and perhaps that is part of the reason why they are a lesser known brand in the first place.
Bearing the above in mind, there are a few microphone brands that I have come to think of first when it comes to making a microphone purchase, and one of these brands is Shure. Today I shall be reviewing the Shure Beta 87A Supercardioid Condenser Microphone. The Shure Beta 87A can be had for £195.73. Read on and see if this sounds like a microphone that you might be interested in auditioning the next time you are visiting your local musical instrument or electronics store.
Shure is arguably one of the most trusted and respected brand names in the world of microphones, and if you stick to their better models, it is very hard to go wrong. O.K., but what performance characteristics does the Shure Beta 87A have that might be suitable for your needs? Well for one, the Beta 87A is a microphone with a "Supercardioid†polar pattern. As some of you who are reading this may already know, a microphone with a cardioid polar pattern is more sensitive to sounds that emanate from directly in front of the microphone, and less sensitive to, or rejects sounds that originate from the sides or the back of the microphone. A microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern is even more directional, in that it is even less sensitive to sounds that originate from the sides or back of the microphone. Thus, a microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern is very desirable in situations where it is crucial to minimize picking up sounds that originate from sound sources other than from in front of the microphone (i.e., the audience in a live performance, or the sound of the instruments from other band members). Thus, a microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern is one that would be good for a drummer who is also a vocalist. A supercardioid microphone is less likely to pickup the sounds of the drums and cymbals than a microphone with a more open pattern, such as a cardioid microphone. Another great feature of a microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern is that it will be able to also be less likely to feedback in high gain situations, such as from poorly positioned stage monitors.
The Shure Beta 87A is also a condenser microphone. This is an important point to keep in mind, as unlike a dynamic microphone, this microphone will require Phantom Power in order for it to operate correctly. This is much less of a problem today than it was a few years ago, as even relatively inexpensive sound system mixing boards manufactured today typically also have built in preamps that can provide phantom power to a condenser microphone. That was not the case when I was first starting out in the music business. Thankfully that has changed.
So what are the best uses for the Shure Beta 87A? The Shure Beta 87A was designed to be used as a hand held vocal microphone. It has a frequency response of 50 Hz all the way up to 20,000 Hz. With that type of range, I am sure you can easily think of a number of other uses for this microphone other than for vocals. However, although the frequency response is primarily flat, there is a slight presence rise in the midrange which serves to accentuate the human voice, whether spoken or sung, and it is that feature that makes singer's voice more clear and pronounced in the mix than might otherwise be the case. The Shure Beta 87A also has a low frequency roll-off that partially compensates for the "proximity effect.†As some of you who are reading this may already know, the proximity effect is the increase in low frequency response that occurs when a microphone is placed in close proximity to a sound source. This can be a useful tool for a singer to use, in that close vocal techniques can add a sense of intimacy and deep breathiness to a quiet and sensitive vocal passage. On the other hand, the proximity effect can be a real nightmare to a sound engineer who is trying to carefully set levels for a vocalist in a recording or in a broadcasting situation. The Beta 87A partially compensates for the negative aspects associated with the proximity effect.
The Beta 87A also has a built in pop filter to minimize the effect of wind and breath noises that are associated with close vocal techniques. Regardless, I still suggest that use of a wind screen in studio recording situations where close vocal techniques are going to be used by a singer. While we are on the subject of close vocal techniques, this would be a good place to point out that the Shure Beta 87A has a sound pressure level (SPL) handling capacity of 140.5 dB. That is quite adequate for a microphone that is going to be used to capture vocals. It is also quite adequate for a number of other recording or sound reinforcement situations. For instance, I would certainly consider using the Shure Beta 87A to record strings, a conga drum, a high-hat, and possibly even an acoustic guitar. However, there are certainly much better choices to use for these purposes. Remember, the Shure Beta 87A was designed to be a hand held microphone that is capable of delivering professional studio quality sound for live situations, and that is what it does best.
If you have apprehensions concerning purchasing a condenser microphone for everyday gigging and road use because you a concerned that all condenser microphones are delicate and fragile, think again. Although the Beta 87A is certainly good enough to use in a studio recording situation, it was designed by Shure to be durable and capable of surviving daily use, and a bit of abuse as well. After all, after a long night of playing, who hasn't dropped a microphone when they were packing up. The Shure Beta 87A is built to handle rigors of the road, and still keep producing.
I hope that you found this review helpful. Good luck to you mates, and may music always be your mistress.

1) write a function that calculates the value that your dependent cell

2) Use NMaximize or FindMaximum to find the maximum.
See the docpage for NMaximize or FindMaximum for details of their usage.
If you don't know how to define functions in mathematica you should

how much should yorkies eat a day?

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
Depends on the dog's age, health, activity level, and brand of food being fed.
Abby answered on 8/17/08. Helpful? / 1
My neighbor/friend has two yorkies. She feeds them both twice a day. Usually, if you buy a good brand of dog food (nothing from a grocery store) then it will have more vitamins and you won't have to give him/her large heaps of food at once. Most dog food has the recommended amount to feed on the label. Take a look at that on a good brand and you should be fine.

When the Nintendo Revolution hits stores next year it will feature a password feature to allow parents to control access for their children. This way, a parent can limit the games their children are able to play based on their ratings, while still being able to play the most risqué of games themselves. Its basically a V-chip for your Nintendo.
The game software will contain a code indicating the rating. That code will trigger the appropriate password protection as set by the parent.
'Even though many Nintendo games are rated E, E10+ or T, we believe this kind of feature should be included in the hardware. It's the right thing to do,' explains Reggie Fils-Aime, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of sales and marketing. 'Game ratings are on the front and back of every game package, so families can easily make a decision about whether a game is right for them.'
Revolution will be released some time next year. A crack for the password feature will be available online soon after.

Zoo Animal Rubber Bands
The most creative thing I did with office supplies when I was younger was to unfurl paper clips and pretend they were retainers for my teeth. Yes, I thought it was cool. No, I don't still do it. Sober anyway. There was an 80's party once..... but I digress. These fun rubber bands beat anything I ever came up with. (And would make for righteous pretend headgear bands..... not that I'd try that or anything).

Located between the upper and lower layer of fiber on the core of the board is a sidewall made of ABS synthetics that has been integrated to directly transmit pressure from the bindings onto the edge without loss of power. This makes the board even more responsive, providing maximum edge grip and the smoothest ride possible.
In a Fullcap Construction, the upper layer and the topsheet material is pulled down to the side to meet the steel edge. This is a great feature for kids and beginners, making power transmission less direct and thus enhancing playful riding, while minimizing edge catches. Fast progression guaranteed!
In this construction the upper layer is flattened in wide areas next to the sidewall. This makes power transmission on the edges more diffused, providing smooth and forgiving riding characteristics as well as some weight reduction and a unique look.
In contrast to conventional sandwich construction, the Slim-Tip Construction incorporates a solid, shock-absorbent urethane inlay in the nose and tail, which reduces weight and centrifugal mass, making the nose look slimmer and enhancing rotational characteristics of the board.
This base is rounded towards the edges, with the edges suspended in the air. This prevents edge-catching when sliding on boxes and rails. The forgiving characteristics also add extra riding fun to the slopes and more lift in powder through reduced friction.
For this special shape, the nose is built a little flatter with the sidecut adjusted accordingly. This increases the effective contact length of the edges, hence you can ride smaller boards with the same bite of a much longer board. This construction also provides less centrifugal mass, improving the whole board feeling and making spins smoother.
This tapered shape was developed especially for freeride boards and shifts the widest points of the nose and tail towards the middle. This is combined with an adjusted sidecut, providing short effective edges that make long boards ride like shorter ones. This new, flatter construction offers even more float and flex than regular powder nose shapes and also adds a very safe feeling to freestyle moves in the backcountry. It might take a bit of getting used to visually, but has excellent riding characteristics with effortless lift in the crust or in changing conditions off-piste.
This geometry is particularly interesting when combined with camber, which traditionally delivers less float in powder than rocker. Thanks to the square outline, sudden edge pressure during a turn (for example when riding from powder into crust) is passed to the back of the board. The straight, square spot cuts through wind-blown snow and lifts the nose up. This reduces pressure and prevents the front of the nose from digging in.

By lovetoshop
from Ottawa, ON
I've purchased several of DG's shirts over the years, and LOOOOOVE them all. I bought two of the sleeveless equipment shirts this summer, and really enjoyed wearing them, so I bought this one recently in black because of the design and sleeves. Again, what can I say. I love the look and feel of the garment. I have now worn it with black jeggings, and my skinny jeans, and received many compliments. My only suggestion would in the sizing, and that is to have all DG's shirts in an XS size. Quality and pricing excellent.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great Shirt
By Gail
from Calgary
I'm not sure what everyone is talking about when they say the material on this shirt is scratchy. I think it feels lovely.. like silk or satin. The shirt fits absolutely perfectly. I have purchased a number of DG's cloths over the years and the frustrating thing with her line is that her sizing is not always consistent. At the same time as I ordered this shirt, I also ordered two other DG shirts in the same size but of a different design. Neither one of those shirts fit at all, but this shirt fit great....go figure. I don't get it, but that's why I gave this shirt a 5 star rating - it looks and feels wonderful and fits very well.

A Great SHirt
By Stylish Lady
from New Brunswick
I was looking for Diane's shrts that are button front but these were available in the colors I wanted so ordered 2, one in Ivory and one in Black.I taught sewing for many years and I sew a great deal so am accustomed to handling fabrics. The 2 I received are both true to size, and are a silky fabric not smooth but more of a crepe finish. Still they are soft and comfortable to wear. I take a med. in DG jackets but order a large in her shirts as I like a silk-like shirt to fit loosely and so drape some. The black is a nice midnight black and the ivory is a nice winter white color. Have worn both a number of times already.
Great Material
By MARY
from SUNDERLAND
Unlike another viewer, I find the material on this blouse gorgeous. I feel like I'm wearing silk. It's light, luxurious and comfortable, all at the same time. The blouse is one that can be used at least 3 seasons out of the year and on cooler evenings in the fourth. I ordered it in mocha and love it. A lovely colour and style. Easy to wear with the jeans, slacks, a skirt or even a suit. Great for casual, office or out to dinner. The style is unique and not one you see around every corner.

beautiful top
By shirl the shopper
from Rockland
Ordered this in white so I could wear with many things. the fit is great and the white is a nice winter white.
I would buy this product again
By Loraine
from Hamilton, Ontario
I love everything about this shirt, the style and double pockets and the colour. It flows really nice and I have worn over a sweater or on its own.it goes beautifully with jeans and leggings. I love wearing it with my skinny jeans and sometimes I wear a belt. I like the feel of the material. It's nice and light and I feel I can wear it all year long.I love the lace front. Getting it on sale was a bonus.
DG lace up shirt
By Ferrie
from T.O.
This shirt is nice but not very comfortable due to not stretchy enough so the movement in it is just not working for me so well but I kept it because it still was worth the sale price and I need black shirt. But even the color black is not a good dark black it is faded black may be it is better in other colors.
Nice shirt
By Lulu
from Ontario
Great design. A little scratchy to touch. If you want a shirt that flows go up one size

By TSC Lover
from Edmonton Alberta
I was really looking forward to wearing this. I loved the color on TV, but when it arrived, it was not quite the same color. It was also not the right size, I could never wear a sweater under it .I am not a large woman, so chose the medium .The material was not soft, in fact it was rough to the touch. I had to send it back :-(
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
By The Shopper
from Toronto, ON
Ordered this in Blk/Med & was looking fwd to wearing it but Very disappointed once I opened. The Material is Not what I thought it would be at all. I thought it might be "Silky' or Chiffon-like, but it's very hard/rough/stiff. Threads were hanging all over the garment & absolutely not worth this price. I am disgusted at the quality as something of this quality can be found in those cheap Big Box stores. I don't mind easily spending money or more money IF the quality is there. This top in my opinion, is poor quality & value. Perhaps there is too much D.G. on TSC - need more designers & better quality & selection for TSC Shoppers Please! I am returning this. I've given up. Sad but true. I don't even find them that modern anymore. I have purchased a few of her items [pants,tops,sweaters & jackets] over the past 10yrs but they have certainly changed the quality now. I also find the waist on her jeans is far too high at the front & cuts into my ribs. They never give the rise measurement & I wish they would as it IS important for the fit Customers need.

The professional development model of academic induction into on-line teaching
Hanrahan, Mary U., Ryan, Michael, & Duncan, Margot E. (2001) The professional development model of academic induction into on-line teaching. The International Journal for Academic Development, 6(2), pp. 130-142.
Current developments in tertiary education settings are resulting in a second wave of academics using on-line technologies in their teaching, providing universities with a considerable professional staff development challenge. The case study presented here illustrates one way of responding to this challenge. Overall, the literature suggests that professional development that is discipline-specific and located in a community-of-practice is more likely to be relevant and productive than a centralized, decontextualized approach. We propose an alternative hybrid model of 'professional engagement' for on-line teaching that attempts to build on existing discipline-specific workplace structures. This includes recruiting academic on-line teaching advisers for each school in the faculty, showcasing existing exemplary practice, and setting up 'professional engagement groups' with a support team. The main advantages of the model are its responsiveness to patterns of academic work and to the immediate needs of academics, the way it enhances the visibility of exemplars of academic work, its cost-effectiveness and scalability, and the complementarity of local and centralized support systems. Limitations include the time needed to build up such staff engagement, an apparent lack of visibility, and difficulty in measuring outcomes.

Latest Q&A
How can we get our dog back from a NY rescue?Q:
Going back to work left our highly active & destructive dog in a crate too long. 2 weeks ago we gave him to a NY rescue, asking to be kept informed & that we'd take him back if a better home wasn't found. 10 days later we couldn't take it any longer and said we wanted him back. They refused saying he had just been adopted. We've been in touch every day since and they refuse. My dog is registered to us in CT.A:
Once one signs a surrender agreement, it is usually difficult to get an animal returned. Shelters and rescue groups are concerned that the individual who surrendered the animal did not have the requisite commitment to the animal and that whatever caused the individual to surrender the animal could very well happen again.

Dec. 06, 2013 by Brian Jay on Data Recovery/Backup Updated: 07/23/2015
Most iPhone users take advantage of their Notes app to jot down notes or flashing-through ideas, so the Notes app on iPhone is very important to iPhone users. When they come up with the problem of losing notes on their iPhone, they might go mad. Deleting notes by accident could be the most commonly issue that the iPhone users will meet with, and it drives people to find ways to recover deleted notes from iPhone. Therefore, the following post will introduce several methods which helps to recover deleted notes on iPhone.
Using iTunes or iCloud to recover deleted notes on iPhone is the most commonly used method. If the iPhone users update their iPhone backup regularly, the notes and other important data will be saved in the backup, and people can restore their iPhone with the backup to get the lost notes back. Using iTunes to recover deleted notes on iPhone will need users to connect iPhone to computer with USB cable, and using iCloud need users to erase all contents and settings on their iPhone. The following guidance will introduce the two ways in detail:
Recovering deleted notes from iPhone directly is possible with the third-party iPhone notes recovery software. When it comes to the third-party iPhone data recovery software, Leawo iOS Data Recovery can be regarded as one of the best. This program allows users to recover deleted files from iOS devices directly, and also supports to extract data from iTunes and iCloud backup. The following guidance will introduce the three methods in detail.
Please note that if you're using iOS devices that run with iOS 8 or later, you may only get Safari bookmarks in this version of Leawo iOS Data Recovery, but the problem will be fixed in the next update.
People may want to transfer notes from iPhone to computer when they want to make a backup of iPhone notes. The notes can't be moved out of iPhone directly, so the users need to use other apps to move notes out of iPhone. In fact, people have three simple methods to transfer notes from iPhone to computer, and the following post will introduce them to you in detail.
When the sync process finished, you will get the notes in your Outlook, and you are able to copy the notes to your computer if you like. The notes will be saved in .msg file extension on your computer.
Other email services also provide similar syncing features, such as Yahoo, AOL, Outlook, etc.
