Someone is waiting alone on my front porch, just standing there while the rain pours down to soak everything. He stares emptily at my door knocker, as if waiting for the courage to see me. Many times he raised his hand, and just as many times let it fall to his side.
His head drops, and he kneels on my step, leaning his head against the door. So badly do I want to run and open it for him, so badly I want to show him that yes, I still love him, but I can't. The only reason he stands there now is because I was the weak one. I was the one who wanted him to be happy... even if it meant he were not with me. I am nine years younger than him, it isn't fair to him when he could be much happier with someone else. All I want is for him to be happy, even if it kills m inside.
We met not too long ago, when I ran across a lonely house in the midst of a forest...
Hey, sorry I'm not updating, I just wanted to get this story up. I came up with it awhile ago, but had only hand written the first little bit. Pretty much, I just wanted to get this one up and written and then maybe a couple of others while I come up with ideas for my others. Don't worry, none of them have been forgotten, no matter how long it's been since I updated it. Anyway, on to the story!! By the way, Tohru's mind set is a little (OK, a LOT) OOC. I figured it suits her better for this story than being so bubbly headed the plot would never get moving!!
Disclaimer: ain't mine, though I do own some merchandise...
I live in a tent. Make that I lived in a tent. Yesterday I was found out by my classmate Yuki Sohma, and his older cousin Shigure. There was a landslide while I was being lectured on how my camping site was on private land, so whoops! My mistake. I would have just moved someplace else, but too late, my home was gone. Instead, the two have been so kind to me and are allowing me to stay with them until my Grandfather's remodeling is finished. I will return to living with him when the time comes.
Everything is so new, I'm still getting used to the idea of living with the two men, and one one other, Kyo Sohma. Kyo makes a rather odd first impression, crashing through roofs like he does. Shigure was slightly perverted when I met him, so I guess I can't just call Kyo odd. So far most of the Sohmas I've met are!
Speak of the devil, there's the perv now. "Tohru, will you follow me for a moment, please?"
"Sure, Shigure-san! Is there anything I can do to help you?" I asked.
He shook his head. "No, I just wanted to talk to you a little, get to you know you better seeing as we'll be living together for awhile. Also, to discuss the chores that will and won't need to be done."
"Oh, all right. Anything you need done, I'll be glad to help you!" Even if it was far from what I was thinking of doing, I had long since begun a facade of being the nice, bubbly-headed idiot everyone adored.
To be honest to myself would mean admitting that the way he posed in the office's doorway was arousing me to the point of no control. He was looking down at me from his six feet of height to my own five foot three with a smirk of bemusement across his features. The yukata adorning his built body lay slightly open and drooped off his shoulder just the slightest bit to show off that tight, smooth stomach and one small nipple itching to be played with by me. His face is handsome too, making the image of him all the more appealing. Those gray-black and secluded eyes were searching me for an answer I was hiding equally as well as he was, and that matching hair color of his was helping the effect. The whole scene looked as though he had planned it, down to his sweeping surveillance of my body.
"I'll remember that, Tohru." he whispered, before slowly lowering the arm he had had propped up on the door frame. He adjusted his clothing before turning into the room, opening it enough to almost show me his entire chest. Not a hair to be seen. Cocky man, probably does anything to get himself laid.
Pretending not to understand, I tilted my head to the side for a moment before shaking it off. "So what all do you want me to do? I would gladly clean the house top to bottom, cook you whatever you want, however you want it! And if you want takeout I will gladly or-"
"Tohru, Tohru, Tohru! You make it sound like I want you to never have any time for yourself while you're living here. You'd just overwork your self, like you were doing before. No, all you have to do is general straightening when it needs it, and you don't have to do anything extravagant for food. Whatever you'd like to cook will be fine with us. Just be your self and do things at your own pace. All right?"
More pretending to do while I yawn inside. This man is dull. While I pretend to look very happy, calm and composed I tell him "Thank you, Shigure-san, I will do my best."
We had been standing in his messy office throughout the conversation. Shigure decided at that point to sit down on the floor at his desk, leaning against his bed while reaching for a bottle of sake. "One more thing on the chores bit, do not clean in here. It's my room, and I rather like my privacy and clutter."
"Anything you want, Shigure-san." I turned to go, curious as to just what all does he have to hide in here.
He stopped me before I shut the door. "Oh, and, Tohru?"
"Yes, Shigure-san?"
"Don't call me 'san'. You make me feel like I'm a stranger to you. My name is Shigure, just as yours is Tohru."
I smiled, genuinely, this time. "Sure... Shigure."
Calling anybody 'san' for so long was getting on my nerves, too.
Well, that's it for this chapter. I know it's short and not very far in the story, but I'll be doing time skips quite often, just to keep it interesting and to move up the plot line. Anyway, please review me with what you thought! I hate having to do this, but I won't update until at least five reviews have been given. Too many of my stories are hits that just get recognition from the readers. And I have one flame to my name, I don't care if you make it two or more or whatever, just so long as you tell me what the problem you have with my story is. I write for my fans first, myself second. If you don't say what you think, I don't know, lose interest and stop writing on any of my stories until I'm told that people like what I'm doing and want more. Sorry if its selfish to want to know your honest opinion, but that's just how I am.
(By the way, sorry for the long author's note, needed to get that bit said now so I don't have to repeat it all again later.)

THE Left List candidate was today addressing union members at a rally in Holborn, supporting today's strike action by the NUT over pay.
Ms German said: "Labour's abolition of the 10p rate of tax has been matched with a further lowering of corporation tax. None of it has worked. You can see this after campaigning for five minutes. People are fed up with rising prices, the rich getting richer, and their lives getting worse.
"This is a chance for us to put our demands - for decent pay, housing, public services and living standards - at the heart of the political storm Brown now faces. The Left List is standing to represent ordinary working people who have been betrayed by New Labour."
THE pressure of the election is starting to get to activists. The Respect and UKIP campaign battle buses descended on Trafalgar Square at the same time yesterday to speak to the St George's Day revellers. A shouting match between the Left- and Rightwing parties followed, with George Galloway, who is standing for the Assembly, struggling to make himself heard above the cacophony.

Dr Reader the crook.
Quick and easy appointment. They give you the run down over the phone. 250$ upfront 80$ 2 weeks later, then 150$ a month. No insurance cash only.. Fine..Has hours really early which is nice. Receptionist is fantastic. However, after check in I am immediately called back ( that's good) ...I pee for the doctor a few minutes later doc comes in looks at the urine test. Says yep "opiates." Then goes into a very fast paced " this is how you take it this is how much you take" speech. Writes a Rx for 21 8mg/2mg strips. I asked the doc, does it matter how much I have been taking or how long I've been taking it? He says nope its all the same. Asks no other questions and I'm out the door stop at the receptionist who reminds me cash only ( I did pay the cash up front) and makes the next appointment. Here it gets bad insurance company won't cover the sub's. So 206$ goes to Walgreen's. I go to my pain management doc a week and a half later for trigger point injections I tell him that I'm doing the subs, but complain pains a little worse, but its better to not have the oxycodone. He says I can write those for you says, man you need the does adjusted.I said man these are expensive I want as few as possible. He says here is a coupon. Didn't say, Dr. Reader was just a cash business no care for the client ..but...geez let's add it up.. So now I drop off the new Rx with Walgreen's now my insurance covers it ...because it is for pain, not withdrawal. I called canceled my follow up appointment with R.eader. Now 6 weeks later I get a bill from dr Reader for $1379.35. For a urine test that they sent to Baton Rouge, LA. (The spine hospital of Louisiana.) Crooks. Nothing but crooks. If you need help with pain addiction from a pain management doc. Talk to that doc. Replace the word addiction with dependent. You will have a much better day. There are many other sub stores. Do not use this one.

14 Claims. (01. 126-204) This invention relates to body-Warming devices and more particularly to devices for keeping either a portion of the human body such as the hands or the entire body warm.
It has long been recognized as desirable to provide some means of maintaining the human body or portions thereof warm in cold climates or regions. This problem has been particularly serious in the case of mechanics desiring to work on equipment in cold Weather or in cold regions such as the arctic regions. It has also been recognized as desirable to provide some means whereby injured or incapacitated individuals in cold regions could be keptwarm untilthey could be transported to suitable convalescing facilities. In the past many proposals for warming the human body have depended upon an exothermic reaction to supply the heat necessary to replace that lost to the atmosphere by radiation, convection or conduction. There are many objections to use of such exothermic chemical reactions. The principal objection is the fact that they require the use of refillable or renewable cartridges since the chemical can be used but once, it being destroyed by the exothermic reaction itself. Another very serious objection to such exothermic chemical reactions is that they almost invariably require water as one of the reactants to initiate the reaction but liquid Water is not available at sub-zero temperatures such as are encountered in the arctic regions. Furthermore, an exothermic reaction is very diflicult to start at low temperatures in accordance with well-known chemical principles. In addition, once an exothermic reaction is started it is very difiicult or impossible to control. As a practical matter there is no way of controlling it, the heat of reaction itself speeding up the reaction thereby rendering it auto-accelerating. Furthermore, the use of an exothermic reaction involves the complications attendant upon storing the reactants separately until the time when heating is desired and then bringing them into intimate contact. For these and other reasons, the use of body-warming devices based on an exothermic reaction is not feasible.
I have discovered that the human'body or a portion thereof such as a hand may be warmed in a manner which completely avoids the foregoing disadvantages and solves the problem of supplying heat to the body at sub-zero temperatures by the provision of a device comprising, in combination, a layer of expanded material (preferably sponge rubber) having in its interstices an inert hydrated inorganic salt which has a melting point in the neighborhood of normal human body temperature," i. e. 98.6 F. (37 C.), and a heat-insulating layer on the outer side of said layer of expanded material. By heating such a device until the salt is molten and then placing it with the layer of the salt-containing material adjacent to the body, the molten salt is allowed to solidify and give up its latent heat of fusion while, maintaining the temperature substantially constant over a protracted period, thereby keeping the body warm.
In accordance with my invention heat is generally not supplied in an amount sufficient to actually heat up the body but rather only enough heat is supplied to replace that lost to the surroundings by radiation, convection and conduction so that the body or part thereof can keep itself warm by the normal metabolism and the normal circulation system. For example, the human hand is naturally equipped with a circulating liquid heating system, namely the blood circulatory system. My invention makes full use of this natural system by supplying enough heat so that normal circulation is maintained but not substantially in excess of such an amount of heat. Similarly in the case of an arctic rescue bag such as is described more fully hereinafter my invention supplies only enough heat to maintain the normal circulation and metabolism of the injured or incapacitated person until he can be transported into an environment having normal room temperature.

Fig. 8 is a section of a wall of the bodywarming devices of my invention.
In its usual form, the body-warming device of the present invention comprises, in combination, the following parts:
(1) A layer of sponge rubber having its interstitial spaces filled or substantially filled with a hydrated inorganic salt which has a melting point in the neighborhood of normal human body temperature, 1. e., generally within a range of from 28 to 45 C. and preferably Within a range of from 34 to 37 C. and having a suitably highlatent heat of fusion, preferably at least '70 B.t. u.
which melts at 3 l C., calcium chloride hexahydrate which melts at 29.9 C. and has a latent per pound and more preferably at least 100 B. t. 11;,
per pound and which is inert with respect to rubber, i. e., which does not deteriorate or swell or dissolve rubber, and which preferably'is'capable of passing through the cycle of being melted and solidified indefinitely without undergoing any x to prevent lossof the heat given off by the molten salt as it solidifies and makes the device very much more effective than it would be without such heat insulating layer. In the case of a hand-warming device or the like made in'accordance with my invention, this insulating layer is preferably made of closed-cell cellular rubber since this is an excellent heat insulator and is highly flexible. In the case of an arctic rescue bag or the like made in accordance with my invention where such extreme flexibility is not necessary and where greater thickness of insulation and greater rigidity are required-I prefer to construct this insulating layer of glass wool or similar highly heat-insulating fibrous material such as, for example, rock wool, kapok, etc.
The aforementioned parts are assembled together in permanent relationship in any suitable manner. The resulting assemblage is designed to receive the entire human body or a part thereof with the sponge rubber layer (surrounded by the above-mentioned impervious envelope) adjacent to the surface of the body where the heat is required and with the insulating layer exteriorly thereof. In use the device is heated until the salt in the sponge layer is molten'and is then placed around the body or the part thereof to be warmed, whereupon the molten salt is allowed to solidify and give up its latent heat of fusion to warm the body and maintain normal circulation.
The most highly preferred salt for use in the sponge layer is hydrogen disodium orthophosphate dodecahydrate (Na2I-IPO4-12H2O) which is ideally suited for use in practicing the present invention because of its high heat of fusion (121 B. t. u. per pound) and its melting point (variously reported as 36.1 C. and 34.6 C.) which is a comfortable temperature at which to maintain the material adjacent to the body. -Hyrdogen disodium orthophosphate dodecahydrate is completely inert with respect to rubber so that it will not deteriorate the rubber of the sponge or of the envelope surrounding the sponge. It is nontoxic and non-corrosive, so that no hazards attend its use. Its latent'heat of fusion is considhaving a melting point in the desired range. It
heat of fusion of about 73 B. t. u. per pound, calcium nitrate tetrahydrate which melts at 42.7
"C. and has a-latent heat of fusion of about 61 Bl t. u. per pound, chromic nitrate monahydrate which melts at 365 C., ferric chloride hexahydrate which melts at 37 C., and zinc nitrate hexahydrate which melts at 36.4 C. and has a latent heat of fusion of about 56 B. t. u. per pound. Other things being equal, the greater the content of water of crystallization of the hydrated inorganic salt the greater is the latent heat of fusion-thereof.- Forthis reason preference is giventothose salts which have at least ten molecules of waterof crystallization per molecule.
Referring now to the hand-warming device of Figs. '1 to 5 of thedrawings, there is portrayed a glove or hand-shield'whichenables a mechanic to work on precision machinery at-low tempera tures with reasonable comfort and efficiency. This device consists of a mitten-like heat-supplying rubber shield completely covering the closed hand and wrist. The device is slit around the thump, along the ends of the-fingers-and along the outside of the little'finger to the second joint so that the hand can be opened allowing almost perfect freedom for the fingers and thumb and offering almost no resistance to-handling of objects such as tools or even very small objects such asbolts or nuts. The device is preferably so con- "warming device consists of a gauntlet part I which fits the wrist and lower forearm snugly. In-the front this tapers down as indicated at 2 to-endabout a third 'of the way into the palm ofthe hand. In the back the gauntlet continues down "in a broad flap indicated generally as 3 which covers the fingers completely. -A flap 4 also covers the back of the thumb. The device may be constructed in the following manner. A
form 5 (Figs. l and2) made of any suitable mapreferably so: out as toprovide breaks at the wrist and at the finger joints as indicated in dotted lines and by reference numeral I I in Figs.
'1 and 2," At these breaks the edges of the-sponge rubber pieces preferably touch one another so that maximum heating efficiency is attained.
The purpose of these breaks is to greatly increase the flexibility of the glove by allowing the several sections of the device to hinge freely at the joints so that the hand may be more freely opened and closed. The cut pieces of sponge rubber I may be secured in position on the skin sheet 6 in any suitable manner, for example by spotting with rubber cement. In placing the pieces I of sponge rubber on the skin sheet 6 the sponge rubber should be discontinued before reaching the line where the device is to be slit around the thumb as indicated at I3 and I4, along the fingertips as indicated at I and along the outside of the little finger as indicated at I6. The purpose of this is to enable the subsequent slitting operation to be carried out without cutting into the sponge rubber layer 1.
Following application of the sponge rubber layer I to the coated form, a second layer 8 of unvulcanized rubber similar to layer 6 is applied over the entire surface of the coated form. This second layer is extended over the edges of the sponge around the thumb into contact with the first skin sheet 6 at the wrist as indicated by reference numeral 9 and at the position of the slit around the thumb, along the tips of the fingers and along the outside of the little finger.
As the next step, out pieces of cellular rubber ID are placed over the exterior of the second skin sheet 8. As in the case of the sponge rubber layer I, it is preferred that breaks in the cellular rubber layer Ill be provided at the wrist and at the finger joints as indicated by reference numeral II to give the device increased flexibility and to give the hand greater freedom. The pieces of cellular rubber may be secured in position in any suitable manner as, for example, by the use of rubber cement. The pieces of cellular rubber preferably touch one another at their edges along the breaks so that maximum heatinsulating efficiency is obtained.
There is then applied to the exterior of the assembly an outside coat I2 of rubber. Rubber coat I2 should extend over the edges of the cellular rubber pieces into contact with the second skin coat 8 at the wrist at 9 and along the slit to be made around the thumb, along the edge of the fingertips and along the little finger. It is highly preferred to apply the final rubber coat I2 from a liquid rubber-containing composition as by a, dip-coating operation or by spraying.
For example, the entire assembly may be sprayed with rubber latex to produce a film of substantial thickness say 0.06" to 0.1". By applying the final rubber coat from a liquid medium as, for example, by a, dip-coating or a spraying method, no strains exist in this final coat after vulcanization of the device. As a result, after the vulcanization has been effected the device tends to return to its closed shape, the outside rubber envelope being so stressed, when the hand is opened, that the finger-covering fiap 3 and the thumb-covering flap 4 automatically assume the closed position whenever the hand is closed after having been opened so as to distend flaps 3 and 4.
The assembly may next be cured. The rubber of the sponge layer I and of the cellular layer ID has already been cured. The purpose of curing the assembly is to vulcanize the skin coats 6 and 8 and the outer coat I2 and to merge the rubber layers 6, 8 and I2 into an integral form at the edge of the wrist at 9 and across the position of the subsequent operation in which the device is slit around the thumb, along the ends of the fingers andalong the little finger. It will be understood that rubber layers 6, 8 and I2 con tain suitable vulcanizing ingredients. If necessary, layers of rubber 6, 8 and I2 may be clamped together along the wrist at 9 and along theline of the cut, I3, I4, I5 and I6, in any suitable manner during the vulcanization step. 'Ifdesired, the skin coats 6 and 8 may be fabric-reinforced. Final coat I2 will generally not be fabric-reinforced.
The device may now be removed from the form 5 and the sponge rubber layer 1 filled with the salt. Filling of the open cell structure of the sponge rubber may be accomplished in anysuitable manner. One method of accomplishing this is to form a suitable opening through the wall 6 of the envelope surrounding the sponge rubber and to inject the liquid salt therethrough while manipulating the glove in any suitable manner to facilitate the substantially complete fillingof the porous structure of the sponge rubber layer 1. It will be understood that if, for example, a needle through which the liquid salt is introduced enters the sponge layer I at a point adjacent to the wrist, fairly thorough manipulation during the filling operation will be necessary in order to effect penetration of the liquid salt into the portions of the sponge rubber farthest from the point of injection. Upon withdrawal of the injection needle the salt when molten will not leak out through the hole through which'the injection was made. Preferably the assembly is maintained at a temperature above themelt ing point of the salt during the step of fillingthe sponge rubber layer 1. v
An additional advantage of having the edges of the pieces of sponge touch at the breaks mentioned before is that transfer of the liquid salt from one section of sponge into an adjacent section during the filling step is thereby greatly facilitated.
Instead of using an injection method'of filling the sponge layer, I may build into the assembly a suitable check valve such as the flapper valve 32 hereinafter discussed in connection with device of Figs. 6 and 7 whereby the liquid salt is readily introduced but leakage of molten salt from the device is prevented.
Before or after the filling of the sponge layer 1 with the salt and before or after removal from the form 5 the device is slit in a continuous cut extending around the thumb flap 4 as indicated at I3 and I4, thence along the ends of the fingers as indicated at I5 and along the outside of the little finger as indicated at I6. This cutting is at a position such that only the integral rubber mass formed by the union of the three layers 6, 8 and I2 is severed along the slit. The cutting step enables the device to freely open and close with the hand whereby objects can be grasped directly with the thumb and fingers through the resulting opening.
The order of the steps of removing the device from the form, filling the sponge rubber layer with the salt and slitting the device may be varied. Thus if desired the slitting of the vulcanized device may be carried out on the form after which the device may be removed therefrom and the filling of the sponge rubber layer with salt effected. Or the device may be removed from the form, then slit and then filled with the salt.
The hand-warming device of Figs. 1 to 5 has many advantages. It utilizes the circulating system of the hand to keep it warm. By eliminating tight, circulation-arresting gloves, full use is made of-this natural warming system. Supplying heat at the wrist further greatly increases the efficiency of the device. By enclosing the bare handas a unit, the loss of heat from individual fingersis kept .at a minimum. Bygiving the fingers bare-hand freedom the time required to doa. specific job is greatly reduced,'which cuts down the necessarytime of exposure. The use of a changev of state to supply heat, namely the heat given off by solidification of a molten salt, instead of an exothermic reaction, gives almost perfect temperature control. Another advantage is that the glove when held open will always tend to return to closed position whereby if the fingers shquldget cold the operator can simply close his hands guntil they are warmed. Another advantage islthat as the salt solidifies the stiffness of the device increases thereby giving an indication to the 'user that he should change to a freshlyheated device. Other advantages are the elasticity .and flexibility of the preferred form of the device wherein closed cell cellular rubber is used as the heat-insulating layer whereby the device is constructed entirely of rubber except for the salt. If 'a workman is supplied with three or four pairs of the hand-warming devices of Figs. i to in an insulated container he can work comfortably for several hours. It will be understood that in' use an insulated container provided with a heating means such as a gasoline stove may be used for heating the hand-warming devices to a point at which the salt therein is molten and for keeping such devices warm until time of use.
keeping injured or disabled persons warm in very cold regions. is a semi-rigid, self-supporting, box-like receptacle adapted to receive the entire body and to keep it warm for a considerable period of time. Such a bag may, for example, be heated at a base and carried by airplane while maintained in a heated condition to the place where the disabled person is located, then transferred to the ground whereupon the disabled person may be placed therein and transported to a base.
The device shown in Figs. 6 and 7 comprises a bottom 20, a top 2| and side Walls 22 extending completely around the top and bottom and integral therewith. The bottom and the side walls are so shaped at one end as to form an integral head-receiving arcuate portion 23. The top adjacent the head-receiving portion 23 is so arranged that it can be swung upwardly as shown in dotted lines on Fig. 6 to permit theplacement within the receptacle of the disabled individual. There is provided a. throat flap 24 which is adapted to lie across the individuals throat, thereby giving a tight closure. Flap 24 is hinged to the wall at one end as by cementing at 31 and is free at the other end 38. Slide fasteners 25 and 26 are provided along the edges of the swing able portion of the top to detachably secure this swingable portion into position. As shown, the upper edge of flap 24 carries a portion of one cooperating slide fastener element of slide fastener 26, this portion being continuous with the portion along the wall of the bag. 4 I
The arctic rescue bag shown in Figs. 6' and 7 comprises a layer 21 of sponge rubber which has its cellular structure filled or substantially filled with a salt of the type described above. Layer 2'! is completely surrounded as before. with an impervious rubber envelope comprising an inner wall 28 and an exterior Wall 29; 1 Outside of the Figs. 6 and 7 portray a rescue bag for use "in The device shown in these figures tages.
thusenveloped layer of sponge rubber there is provided a layer 30 of heatjinsulation which preferably, isfibrous, such asglass wool. It'is preferred' that this heat insulating layer be at least 4 thick'in order to reducethe loss of heat outwardly'jto'aininimum.
The layer 30 of insulation is surrounded by any suitable covering'layer 3! which may be of rubber but generally is of cotton duck, canvas or similar Woven textile fabric. The sponge rubber 2! may be filledwith the salt inan'y suitable manner. There is illustrated the use'of a flapper valve 32 which is built into the assembly, extending from the outside thereof through the insulation layer 30 and through the outer wall 29 of the envelope into the sponge r-ubber layer 21. Flapper valve 32 may be composed of the usual two parallel Walls 33 and 34 of rubber cemented together at their edges. The liquid salt' is introduced through the opening 35 and passes between the walls 33 and 34 into the sponge rubber layer 2'! through opening 36 at the innermost end of the flapper valve 32. Thereafter and during use, the flapper valve 32 remains closed as a result of the hydraulic pressure of the liquid salt in known manner. I
In'st'eadof having the throat flap 24 constructedas shown in Figs. 6' and 7, in some cases it may be preferable to have it carried by and constructedintegrally with the top 2|. In such case the 'slid'e'fastener 25fends at a point corresponding to that at which the slide fastener 26 on the other side of'the bag ends and the flap is lifted with the top of'the bag when it is desired to place the injured person Within the bag or'to remove him therefrom. Such a construction is simpler than that shown in Figs. 6 and 7 of the drawing and is simpler to operate in extremely cold regions. In such case it is desirable to have the flap 24 constructed of thick, cushioning, heat-insulating material. For example it may be constructed with several inches o'ffresilient insulation whereby when the top is placed in position and fastened do'wn'the throat flap lightly but tightly presses against the throat of the individual in such manher as to effect a good seal without interfering with his comfort or safety. If desired the throat flap so constructed may comprise 'a body of sponge rubber filled with the heat-supplying salt, formed for example by an integral continuation of the layer 2? of sponge together with the envelope formed by layers 28 and'29 into the throat flap 24.
By the use of an arctic rescue bag such as is illustrated in Figs. 6 and '7 a stricken human being may be'k'ept warm for 48 hours at an outside temperature of 'minus'70 F'. assuming that the insulation layer is at least 4" thick, that the sponge rubber layer 21 contains pounds of hydrogen disodiumorthophosphate dodecahydrate and that the individuals body is capable of supplying jenoughfheat tokeep him alive, namely, 1500 calories" per day. It will thus be seen that a device such as is illustrated in Figs. 6 and 7 makes read- 1131 possible the rescue of stricken human beings in very cold isolated areas such as the arctic regions. Thedevice of Figs. 6 and 7 offers many advan- It can be used indefinitely, it being necessary only to warm it until the salt in the sponge rubber layer is molten in order to prepare it for use.
If desired, a more flexible construction than that shown in Figs. 6 and 7 may be provided for enclosing an entire human body. For example an 'oversized sleeping bag type of structure may .be p'rovided; I
Fig. 8 shows in exaggerated detail a section through a wall of a body-warming device made in accordance with my invention, In Fig. 8 the salt-filled sponge rubber layer is indicated by the reference numeral 4|, the impervious envelope surrounding the sponge rubber layer is shown as being formed from the innermost wall 42 and an outer Wall 43, while the heat insulating layer is indicated by reference numeral 44 and the outermost layer is indicated by reference numeral 45.
Sponge rubber is by far the preferred material for holding the heat-liberating salt used in the present invention. However, other expanded material may less preferably be employed in place of sponge rubber. In the case of a hand-warming device or other device where elasticity and free movement are necessary the material used for containing the salt should be elastic and flexible. An example of other material which might be used in place of sponge rubber is closed cell cellular rubber, provided that the difficulty and expense of introducing the salt into the cells are not prohibitive. Another material which can be used is honeycomb rubber, that is sheet rubber which has been assembled into a cellular structure. In some cases it may be feasible to place particles of the salt into rubber prior to vulcanization thereof. However, none of these alternative methods is nearly as feasible as the use of sponge rubber, which has an open structure, and introduction of the salt thereinto after construction of the device as described above.
It is preferred, particularly in the case of the arctic rescue bag of Figs. 6 and 7 or a similar device, that the layer of sponge be cemented to the faces of the envelope discontinuously-for example, in spots-so that the liquid salt can pass between the face of the sponge rubber layer and the face of the envelope rather than through the sponge rubber which consumes considerably more time. This is not absolutely necessary in the case of the hand-warming device because it is circular in shape so that the sponge may be held against the faces of the envelope without cementing although cementing to the inner skin layer 6 may facilitate assembly.
The sponge rubber layer should be sufficiently thick to hold enough of the salt to keep the body or part thereof for which the device is designed warm for the requisite length of time. The thickness of the sponge layer will depend upon, among other factors, the degree of cellularity of the sponge rubber (sponge rubber usually contains from 50 to 80% voids), the particular salt employed and the amount of outward loss of heat which will depend upon the efiiciency of the insulating layer. In the case of a hand-warming device, the sponge layer is preferably at least My thick. In the case of an arctic rescue bag, the sponge layer may conveniently be from one to two inches thick in order to have an adequate reserve of heat.
The layers of rubber making up the envelope which surrounds the layer of sponge rubber are usually quite thin, generally not over 1 in thickness, being only thick enough to have the strength necessary to resist the influences to which they are subjected in manufacture and use. The thickness of the outer rubber layer I2 is generally of the same order although it may be somewhat thicker, if desired, to resist abrasion and wear.
The thickness of the insulating layer will depend upon the particular type of insulating material used, the outside temperature encountered,
the length of time it is 1 desired that the device supply heat, etc. In the case of a hand-warming device insulated with closed cell cellular rubber the insulating layer will usually be at least 4" thick. In the case of an arctic rescue bag insuated with fibrous material, the insulatin layer will usually be at least 4" thick.
Any form of heat insulating material may be used provided it is capable of being adapted to the particular body-warming device in question. In the case of hand-warming devices or similar devices used at moderately low temperature the insulation is preferably of cellular (closed cell) rubber. In the case of body-warming devices which are to be used at temperatures of the order of minus 75 F., especially those devices which do not need to be highly flexible or to possess elasticity, I prefer to employ fibrous insulation such as balsa wood, balsam wool, cork, hair felt, kapok, hair and jute, rock wool, glass wool, etc., the latter being preferred because of its light weight and high insulating value at such extremely low temperatures.
While the invention has been described with particular reference to a hand-warming device and an arctic rescue bag, it will be understood that the principles of my invention can be employed in constructing any type of body-warming equipment such as foot-warming devices, leggings, arm-Warming devices, sleeping bags, blankets, vests, underwear, such as a complete suit of underwear, headgear, jackets, overcoats, flexible suits adapted to cover the entire body and to be'worn while moving about, etc.

7828UV-3R Can't PTT while receiving
Expand Messages
- Nov 5, 2012On my UV-3R, I the PTT is disabled when receiving a signal. This is rather annoying as our repeater has a several second "tail" after a transmission. This makes it pretty much impossible to break into a conversation, especially when other participants don't wait for the carrier to drop.
Sometimes I can get around this by turning the frequency to an adjacent channel, flipping back, and hitting the PTT before it picks up the current signal.
I haven't seen anyone else mention this and I was wondering if it's a common issue or something specific to mine.

Take a Mini Moon, 5 Reasons Why It Will Make You Happy
You have taken some great family vacations over the summer, and the kids are back in school. You are already beginning to think about the upcoming holiday season and all of the arrangements that need to be made between now and then.
Before jumping in, take a pause and a breath. The time between now and the holidays is an excellent time to reconnect with your partner, invest in yourself and in your relationship. It is the perfect time to plan a Mini Moon!
At Stayful we all love Mini Moon's. Most people think of a Mini Moon as a replacement for a big expensive honeymoon. We think of Mini Moons as a regular getaway. It is a wonderful way to reconnect with our partners. Taking time away together creates the conditions for a happier relationship and as a result, personal happiness.
Here are the 5 reasons why:
1 Anticipation:
Talking, dreaming and fantasizing about a Mini Moon will create reconnection with your partner before the Getaway. It is also an excellent opportunity to relive honeymoon memories with your partner.
2 Us time:
Give yourself the gift of unplanned time together. Time without schedules, interruptions or intrusions creates the conditions to just "be" together. Remember to disconnect from your digital world and use this time just for the two of you.
3 Sharing:
We all say "We love doing that, I can't remember the last time we …". Spend time with your partner on a shared interest or hobby while away. This reminds you what you like and enjoy doing together.
4 New Experiences:
Something old, something new. Add a completely new experience, something neither of you have done before, to your Mini Moon. You'll have lots to talk about when you get back home.
5 Memories:
Buy something small on your trip. It is always wonderful to see souvenirs from trips taken around the house. These items are instant triggers for happy memories.
And of course, take loads of pics. Looking at pictures from your trip is guaranteed to trigger happiness.

Upper Canyon Road – The Neighborhoods of Santa Fe, New Mexico
The sky shines with an evening sun that turns the Sangre de Cristo (Blood of Christ) Mountains the color of watermelon. Tonia and I were married in the gardens of the Randall Davy Audubon Center at the end of Upper Canyon Road. 12 years later our son, Nick, became a camp councilor there. Fed by the snowmelt, three reservoirs serve as some of the city's drinking water and spill into the Santa Fe River. Just 3 miles from the Santa Fe Plaza and bordering the Santa Fe National Forest is a 190 acre urban preserve run by the Nature Conservancy. Willow trees and cottonwoods, beaver and birds paint the landscape along the trailhead of the 20-mile Dale Ball Hiking Trail. A series of ponds and wetlands make this neighborhood first choice for our family's regular hikes.

So, you have decided to have a company website after all. Of course you want it to bring new customers. After all, you are investing money into it. One thing, that is very important to get to this point, is UX.
UX is the short version of 'User Experience'.
User Experience is the ingredient of your Web Design that keeps it lively.
You see, when a new user enters your website, you have approximately 10 seconds to make them stay. 10 seconds. Other wise they will leave your website, never to be seen again. Except by the competition, maybe.
Making them stay is not as easy, though. What do you do if you end up on a website, that doesn't show what you need or that is confusing to navigate? You leave.
UX or User Experience, therefore, is the concept of your Web Design, that doesn't only convince the user to stay for longer than 10 seconds, but also makes them love to use your website!
User Experience has a lot of facets and faces. It can be very serious, it can be lots of fun. It really depends on what your brand represents.
If you are a company, that wants to make a very serious impression, you could go with traditional navigation menu with very few links to make it easy to keep the overview. You could keep the design very clean and talk to your users like you would talk to a customer. You'd have a contact page with a form and possibly a map. In order to communicate your brand, you use images, showing what your company values most.
On the other hand, if you own a café, you might want to make your website a little more playful. Your Web Design might be very lively and friendly. Many photos of people enjoying their coffee together, or maybe images of Latin American countries and coffee beans. Probably you will talk to them like friends rather than customers. Your website should be 100% responsive, since many of your customers will find it, when they are on the go. Maybe you want to have a small forum or social community on your website to keep people talking, even when they aren't there anymore?
That's why it's a good idea to talk to a professional. One of the big benefits of hiring an UX- and Web Designer is, that they know what they do. They will do everything in their power to make your website work for you and your customers. They will be able to make sense of all the tiny details and bring across the exact feeling you want to communicate in order to turn website visitors into customers.
User Experience is a mighty tool, that you don't want to miss out on, when you have your new Website created. We at Raindropcatcher, have made User Experience to one of our biggest priorities and always try to push the borders in order to turn mere website visitors into those who come back to pay money for your services and products.

Welcome to SeaKist Yacht Sales! SeaKist Services, in association with the Rio Dulce Chisme-Vindicator, brings you the best yacht sales and brokerage service in the Rio Dulce, Guatemala and Northwest Caribbean areas. SeaKist is a registered broker and member of the YachtWorld family, promoting your vessel on the Internet's largest photo database of sailboats and powerboats for sale. Please have a look at our extensive listings to find the boat of your dreams!
Price reduced $10,000!! August 21, 2015 Lucky you! Here is one of the newest and best built Colvin-designed schooners available today, well maintained in excellent ready-to-cruise condition, and bargain priced for an immediate sale! That's a rare and winning combination worthy of anyone's full consideration!
Naval Architect Thomas E. Colvin has drafted, built, and sold plans for many successful designs of cruising boats and other craft, plans often sold to dreamers of faraway places to be constructed "at home" of welded aluminum or steel plate. The success of Colvin's designs are seen with countless examples found in use and loved by happy owners all over the world!
But this particular schooner is far better than many, and here are some of the reasons why:
--This design, Doxy, has about 40% more interior volume than the cramped but better-known Gazelle design.
--The lead filled keel is one foot deeper than the original design, greatly improving stability and upwind sailing performance.
--After construction the entire boat was sandblasted inside and out, and then the deck and house were hot zinc flame-sprayed (galvanized) including inside and outside of gunnels, followed by five coats of Devoe Bar-Rust 235 epoxy paint sprayed on and topcoated with alkyd enamel. Bilge areas have ten coats of that epoxy paint!
--In January, 2015, the hull bottom was sandblasted bare, then two coats of epoxy primer, two coats of coal tar epoxy, and three coats of antifouling were applied. Splash this boat and GO!
--Also in 2015: two Trojan deep cycle 6-volt batteries and one Trojan deep cycle 12-volt battery were added. A new carburetor was installed on the low-use generator. A new 75-watt solar panel, Blue Sky 2000E solar controller, and 400-watt wind generator were installed.
--An impressive inventory of many anchors and excellent quantities of chain and rode promote wonderful sleep.
So here is your ideal cruising sailboat, already conveniently located in one of the best cruising areas in the world: the pristine Western Caribbean! Now safely tucked up the Rio Dulce in Guatemala for hurricane season, same-day cruising from the Rio can have you snorkeling or diving the 2nd largest barrier reef in the world – Belize it! Or, it's just an overnighter away to experience the Bay Islands of Honduras (Utila, Roatan, Guanaja, etc.). Great Yacht, Great Location… it's time to have fun!

A trial of medical treatment can be given. If it works, he would require medical treatment for life long with regular checkups. If the trial fails, endoscopic surgery would cure him. You need to consult a Urologist in your city.

At the start of every new school year I let my Angels pick out an outfit. My parents did the same thing for my brother and I growing up. We called it "our back to school outfit".
This year I went a little overboard. Ok. A lot. The deals were amazing at Target and Walmart. It was as if the clothes were being given away. The Angels were going crazy at the stores. As was I. I'm talking $8 for stretch-skinny jeans, $4 leggings, and $10 tops. Awesome!
I don't spend a lot of money on my clothing or the Angels. Sure, I can spend $40 on a pair of pants for the girls but they still come home with holes in the knees and stains all over them. I figure what's the point. I might as well pay less. The same goes for shoes. These girls are growing machines. I'm buying new ones almost every quarter. Like hell am I going to pay a ton. The girls got theirs for $20 a piece.
I do let them pick out their own clothes. They are getting too picky and won't wear something if they don't like the cut, feel, colour or texture of a certain material. My Angels like comfortable clothing. Like mother, like daughter
Here's a look at a few of the things we picked up. The Angels were grinning from ear to ear. It was money well spent.
Simply Yours,

Fast Facts
There are 125 MTCs in 39 states. We estimate that 2,100 teachers and 400 professors participate, with a potential impact on hundreds of thousands of students each year.
Math Teachers' Circles are well aligned with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice and are among only a handful of professional development models recommended by the CBMS MET II report.
This 2015 article in Perspectives in Urban Education describes the benefits of MTC participation for teachers as practitioners of mathematics.
An article in the December 2014 Notices of the AMS describes MTCs for a mathematician audience.
A substantial benefit of [Math Teachers' Circles] is that they address the isolation of both teachers and practicing mathematicians: they establish communities of mathematical practice in which teachers and mathematicians can learn about each others' profession, culture, and work.
— Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences Mathematical Education of Teachers II Report, 2012
Recent research on Math Teachers' Circles provides evidence about how the program affects participating teachers:
- Teachers develop stronger identities as mathematical thinkers and begin to see themselves as both teachers and mathematicians (Hendrickson, 2016).
- Teachers feel more pedagogically prepared and have increased self-efficacy as math teachers. They use more inquiry-based teaching practices in their classrooms (Marle et al., 2012).
- Mathematical knowledge for teaching increases after participating in a Math Teachers' Circle workshop (White et al., 2013).
- On national surveys with hundreds of respondents, teachers report increased enthusiasm for mathematics; higher levels of professional engagement and leadership; and an increased belief that all their students are capable of doing mathematics (cf. White & Donaldson, 2011).
Benefits for mathematics professors and departments are described in an article from the December 2014 Notices of the American Mathematical Society (Donaldson et al., 2014).
Several Math Teachers' Circle sessions have also inspired mathematical research, including a publication in Mathematics Magazine by Gene Abrams and Jessica K. Sklar (Abrams & Sklar, 2010), and an article in the College Mathematics Journal co-authored by 13 members of the AIM Math Teachers' Circle on Sets, Planets, and Comets (Baker et al., 2013).

Poll: Should I make Jacob more involved in the story or just leave him alone in Chapter 12? Vote Now!
Author has written 3 stories for Twilight.
Hi ppl...If anyone reads this I just wanted to let you know that for the time being my stories will be on hiatus. The portable harddrive that I have (or had) crashed and my stories were on it. I've been trying without much luck to recreate them...especially Once Upon A Time. Also I've discovered that a lot of my FAVORITE stories are being taken down since it's in violation of ff's TOS rules. I personally think that if you rate a story M for mature it's a given that there will be explicit (otherwise known as things you don't even want to talk to yourself about; much less anyone else) material in the story. I personally look for those when I'm on here so to hear that there are some prudes out there who are in a tizzy about it floors me...DON'T FUCKING READ IT THEN!! Most of the stories are now on twilighted.net...so look there...that's what I've been doing. I actually joined that site since you can write NC-17 stories and no one can bitch about it. I also have to warn that when I get going again on my stories I will try to post on ff and twilighted, but considering that I plan on my stories going towards the land of NC-17 that most likely I will MAYBE at some point delete my stories and post exclusively on twilighted.net. A lot depends on whether I can do the pg versions for ff. If not then look for me on twilighted.net I am also under the same pen name... I just posted the first chapter of together again there, but unlike here it I have to wait for validation before it goes on the site...could take a week or two. I'll also most likely be putting addtional scenes...etc in the story. In fact the prologue that I wrote for Together Again on ff and the one for Twilighted are different...just by a paragraph or two, but it different all the same. (5/1/10 - I was rejected for Twilighted.net turns out I have some problems with tenses...and run-on sentences. I will clean it up and resubmit since that was what I was told I could do.)
Hi..I'm new to this site and I can't seem to put my laptop down. I'm a 30+ woman who loves reading. I've actually been punished when I was younger by having my books taken away from me. My mother said that was the best punishment she could think of for me. She would be yelling at me and I wouldn't hear her because I was too into whatever book I was reading...she's even thrown away a book or two! Let's see about a year ago I found out about Twilight(the movie) and found out that it was based on a book. I am a rabid vampire fan (Buffy, Angel, True Blood..etc. I will watch almost any vampire movie)and when I heard that Twilight was coming out as a movie, but was based on a book of course I couldn't resist...had to get the book. Once I got Twilight and started reading I was done in two days. Then I heard that it was the first book of four...the fourth which was to come out in September...Needless to say I got all four books. Totally addicted...and wish Stephenie Meyer would continue, but what do I know. I'm starting to write some stories which I hope to upload... I think about actually writing a book, but have to admit that I'm a bit chicken-shit to do it. I have 2 ideas, but I keep procrastinating. Hopefully I'll work up to it.
2/27/2011 - I FINALLY watched Eclipse. I was delaying it for as long as I could...don't know why...now that I've seen it I will say that for me it was the best one yet. To me it followed the book more than any of the others, but I haven't seen Breaking Dawn parts one & two yet. I'll let you know when I do.
BTW - I've joined the twitter world. I only did it to follow people, but something unexpected happened...someone decided to follow me...and now I figure...why the hell not...I will be tweeting random stuff...about life as well as when I update...but for now...the updates will be mostly about how it's going to recreate my stories...and other fuckery... my name on twitter is psbnightowl - pony up! Just so you know that it's me...my profile picture is the album cover of Coldplay's X&Y circa 2005...google it if need be.
Some basic facts about myself
Name: My family and friends know me as Debbie...but not my real name
D.O.B.: Lets just say that I'm a scorpio (The month of Nov.). I am old enough to vote - Remember that's the most important thing you could ever do...
Party Affiliation: Democratic
I have an approximately 11 inch tattoo of a scorpion on my back that I got for my birthday!! I've been told it's unusually big. My nephew thinks it absolutely "Cool"
I have no children and honestly don't know if I ever will...I'm a great aunt, but I don't know if I could do the mother bit.
Here's a link to my playlist..enjoy!:
- Couldn't think of another name that wasn't taken
I just recently started a story called Together Again one that I hope to continue, but I guess that depends on reviews.
Favorite Books
The Twilight Saga - I like them in the following order: Breaking Dawn, Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse. Have to admit the order sometime changes based on my mood.
Pride & Prejudice
Harry Potter Series
Lord of The Rings (I can follow the movies better though; the books bored the ever living hell out of me!)
Christine Feehan Dark Series
Favorite Authors. I' just a mess of kiddie and adult. I figure great books and authors cross age lines.
Stephenie Meyer (of course!!)
J.K. Rowling
Jane Austen
Christine Feehan
Lora Leigh
Lori Foster
Sasha White
Favorite Bands/Singers (I'm just a mix of music...I like variety...it's the spice of life you know!)
Coldplay, Beyonce, Justin Timberlake, Queen, Pink, Sarah McLaughlin, T.I., John Legend, Muse, Paramore, Linkin Park, NIN - Nine Inch Nails, Gwen Stefani, No Doubt, L.L. Cool J, Otis Redding, Enya, Evanescence, Rihanna, Maroon 5, Ne-yo, Jennifer Hudson, Maxwell, Tamia, K.O.L.
Twilight premiered on Showtime on Sat. January 23rd, and I was watching it for the third time when I noticed something in the prom scene of the movie. Victoria IS AT THE PROM!! Yeah, I know what is the big deal...we saw her watching Edward and Bella from a distance, but what I mean is that she was in the ACTUAL room with all the other prom goers...her back is to us so settle infront of the tv with your remote and rewind that sucker...because I watched it three more times just to be sure, and she IS there.

Gym etiquette has been consistently dwindling in an age of increasing numbers of gym-goers. Gym etiquette is essential for proper functioning of any gym and only makes the experience more pleasant for everyone involved.
The most important of all gym manners is maintaining hygiene. Always carry a towel/napkin and clean up seats and equipment that you have just used. Make sure you use clean shoes that you do not use outside. Not only does this make the surrounding cleaner but also healthier.
Always use deodorant. Sweating is often unavoidable but the stench is your responsibility. Be sure to wash yourself regularly, especially while doing cardio. Grunting is a natural part of heavy lifting. But, continuous and loud grunting can be distracting to people around you.
Return any equipment you use back to its original place. This makes it easier for the next person to get it and keeps the gym clutter-free. Do not hog time on a particular piece of equipment, especially during peak hours. At the same time, be considerate of the people using the equipment and do not pester them.
Lastly, stick to what the gym is made for. Avoid chatting, texting, providing unwanted advice, admiring yourself in the mirror, flirting with uninterested people and boasting about how much you lift. Most people there go there to get away from the doldrums of work and housework, so let them concentrate on their workouts.
5 Reasons you should exercise early in the morning
- No excuses
If you start your day with a few exercises or even a quick run, you don't get to think of excuses like 'I don't have time', 'It was a long day', 'I'm too exhausted' etc. If you can wake up half an hour early to put on your make up or change five outfits, you can wake up early to exercise.
- Mood improvement
It's a pretty common knowledge that sport can energize us, but working out in the morning can also give us a boost and put us in a good mood for the entire day.
- Blood circulation
Exercising improves the blood circulation, which is good for the health of our entire body. Blood flows through heart, lungs, arteries and veins and keeps our entire system and muscles working.
- Weight loss
If your goal is to lose weight, working out in the morning can keep you motivated to have a positive healthy lifestyle for the entire day, helps you burn calories faster and even have fewer cravings.
- Good rest
A well started day means a more active and productive day and a restful sleep.

For the upgrade to the Brazillian, is that 50 for every session- so a total of 300 more if it is 6 sessions? Or just 50 more total? Also, is it a modified Brazillian, or a regular one? Thanks!

Hi Nina- Yes, you are correct, it is $300 more. It is $50 extra each session, for Brazilian-modified or entire pubic area. This is a great deal because our regular in house price each session is $250. You would save $1,051! Thanks, Raye
