Here are some basic tips from a diesel mechanic on how to check the condition of an automobile. Does the car start right up when you turn the ignition key? If not, the electrolyte solution in the battery acid may be low, or there may be an electrical short in the charging system. To test brake systems, just tap the brakes at high speed, and see if there's any noise or a spongy feel to the brake pedal, which indicates either air in the brake lines, or decomposition in brake fluid viscosity.
Testing the cylinder compression of either the diesel or gasoline engine is simple as well. Just find a hill, and try to accelerate up it from a standing start, noting any black smoke or backfire noise that results from incorrect ignition timing, valve wear, or pinston ring problems within the engine itself. How does the car shift through the gears? Is it smooth, or do you feel a clunk as it shifts, which may signal transmission repair is not too far removed. Beyond major requirements within the automotive engineering department, you may consider Briar Cliff University thermodynamics as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

Thesis:Who told you that you were naked?
Introduction:In our study last week we considered Paul's confrontational question in Romans 9:20-21: Who are you to talk back to God? In that study we focused upon a very large and enormously consequential reality: without humility on man's part, there is no understanding of anything. It should, therefore, be no surprise to anyone that wisdom has almost disappeared from planet earth. Man's arrogance has currently almost reached the stratosphere and the inverse is true of his wisdom. Thus, the point the apostle has made is both blunt and profound: if we really wish to understand so that we may "live", we have no alternative but to humble ourselves and take our position as students of the Truth from God rather than critics.
This evening we are going to push that envelope. We are going to begin a look into Paul's "explanation" to the "humble" of the reason(s) for God's methods in particular respect to His total refusal to permit man's "works" to be ultimately determinant. We are going to do this by considering what he said in 9:22-23. And we are going to consider this text in the light of God's question of Adam in Genesis 3:11.

Energy matters!
Since the District's energy conservation efforts were first launched decades ago, many APS employees (most notably FD+C staff and the M&O Mechanical and Electrical Departments), teachers, students, and custodians have been adopting many good conservation habits. APS' initial conservation efforts were straightforward with a focus on the obvious measures to save energy, which was a good place to start, but these measures eventually hit a "where to go from here?" wall. As it was time to reach higher, deeper, and wider, the District formed the Water and Energy Conservation Committee (WECC) — the brainchild of FD+C Executive Director Karen Alarid — in September 2013. Under the guidance of WECC, APS' energy conservation endeavors have taken a giant leap forward, and there's no looking back! WECC has revamped and shifted APS' Energy Conservation Program (ECP) into high gear and knows no boundaries.
WECC is charged with identifying and implementing conservation opportunities District wide. The program consists of three intersecting areas of conservation: 1) new building design and construction; 2) building system operation and maintenance; and 3) the day-to-day habits and culture of the end users (which includes educational outreach that impacts behavioral practices throughout APS.) It is where these three facets intersect that a balanced approach and the most beneficial energy conservation efforts will be seized. However, there will also be no comprising education in this massive goal of identifying every miniscule amount of wasted water, electricity, and gas and eliminating it. The entire conservation effort has to first create an environment conducive to education and then has to save energy. To make this happen, WECC is changing the culture of APS, branding energy education, and folding curriculum and students into the transformation.
WECC evolved from a holistic recognition that every drop of leaking water could develop into a large lake, and an infinitesimal amount of wasted electricity can add up to enough wattage to power hundreds of motorboats speed racing on that lake. APS' new energized ECP evolved from this discernment that saving energy means getting down to the minutia of every facet of energy — the delivery systems; the controls on those systems; the users (building occupants) of the systems; the technicians who service and repair the systems; the systems' design as well as the design of the space the systems cool and heat; when that space is in justifiable use and when the use can be redirected; when and how to most economically purchase the energy; and lastly but most critical to the sustainability of the ECP, participation of the entire energy literate APS populace. It's not only a consolidation of all the variables of energy and energy use, but also the consolidation of the information and education in creating one comprehensive energy picture that can be managed. If it seems endless, it's because it is and is worth repeating, conserving energy at APS knows no boundaries!
APS' energy conservation efforts grew by leaps and bounds in the 2014-15 fiscal year, gaining traction and realizing many gains presented in this section. The re-energized ECP is directing all conservation efforts from a perspective of consolidation, fully acknowledging that it's an overarching concept, yet achievable. The APS Board of Education and executive leadership is on board with WECC's ambitions to change the energy use culture throughout the District. It is a daunting undertaking, considering APS' vast physical size and its 100,000 plus population of students, faculty, and staff is represented by vastly different ideologies.

Omega-3 is a vital compound for your body. It helps in a large number of ways, especially in cell health and ensuring your cells are able to do the job they have been programmed to do. Lacking omega-3 can result in a number of problems, from poor cell health, cancer and even impaired cognitive abilities.
This is why taking omega-3 supplements are so important. Did you know that krill oil contains just as much omega-3 as fish oil does? It is true. Did you also know that because of how the omega-3 acid is stored in krill, it is easier for your body to digest krill oil than it is for your body to digest fish oil? It is also true.
Benefits of taking omega-3 from a krill oil source
One of the biggest benefits is how omega-3 fatty acids can improve one's mood.
The effects of krill oil omega-3 fatty acids has been compared to that of antidepressants. In addition, there is strong evidence to support the fact that omega-3 can actually have a beneficial effect on bipolar disorder.
In terms of your cardiovascular system, omega-3 fatty acids help in a large number of ways. First of all, they reduce unhealthy fats in your body by as much as 30 per cent. High fats called triglycerides have been linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Omega-3 fatty acids also help to lower the fatty substance that builds up in your arteries, called cholesterol.
In addition, they decrease the risk of abnormal heart beats and help to prevent the clotting of blood. Clots can break off and block arteries that can cause a heart attack, and they can block the flow of blood to the brain causing a stroke.
Omega 3 fatty acids from krill oil also helps to lower blood pressure, and reduce inflammation in the body.
Reduce risk of heart attacks by 33%
It is actually estimated that by taking supplements of krill oil, you can reduce your risk of having a heart attack by as much as 33 per cent.
Looking at the risk of cancer, fatty acids can greatly reduce the risk of developing various forms of cancer. Several studies have found that consuming omega-3 fatty acids can supress various types of cancers, including reducing the risk of breast, lung, prostate and colorectal cancer.
Omega-3 fatty acids are very helpful for your brain
They can improve your learning and memory skills for one. Studies have found that children who took omega-3 fatty acids supplements actually did better in school and scored higher on tests. In addition, they had fewer behavioural problems than those who did not take the supplement. For those who are older, omega-3 krill oil can also help fight age-related cognitive decline due to dementia.
The benefits of omega-3 fatty acids from krill oil are immense, and the cost of the supplements are so low your return on investment is staggering. What else can give you extra years of life, for a low cost of a few pills a day?

Super hot blond does wicked extreme metal vocal covers
Wow! Should Angela Gossow decide to leave Arch Enemy, I think I may have found Angela 2.0. Check out this hot chick from Canada (although accent points to some place in Eastern Europe) as she screams to Arch Enemy's My Apocalypse. While other blondes her age are busy shopping or admiring nude photos of Bieber, this chick spends her spare time dressing her room up with Death logos and doing cool (if not a bit death-corish) vocal covers.
OK, so I'm not really a pig, but as I'm watching this vid, I keep thinking how I want to become her microphone. I sure as hell hope she also plays any of those guitars in her room.
BTW, she also does Death and Satyricon vocal covers. I guess I know what you're doing tonight.

How much to change a tyre, Avis?
Hundreds of you sent in car-hire horror stories, so we sent our man to put your complaints to the rental bosses
After your car-hire horror stories filled a record postbag, we took every single one of your complaints to the bosses of Avis, Hertz and Europcar, and asked them two simple questions: would they refund your money, and what steps would they take to protect their customers from similar "administrative errors" in the future?
"We are disappointed to receive any complaints from our customers and would like to stress that we take each and every complaint we receive very seriously," said Avis chief, Kevin Bradshaw. "From time to time we do make mistakes, and it is a key priority for Avis to ensure all customer queries are resolved satisfactorily."

For reasons unknown my previous thread was closed, however Joe Offer maintained that just 2 members of the Catholic clergy were involved.
The report I read on the BBC News suggested a figure of 49 members of the clergy.
One of the factors that has allowed such abuse to continue unsuppressed is the opposition to open debate of the issue.
The article on the BBC was published on the 18th July perhaps someone would provide a link, doing on my android is nigh on impossible.

Creator Bryan Fuller has confirmed that NBC will continue the Hannibal TV Series with Hannibal Season 3. It was uncertain whether NBC would renew Hannibal but I know every horror fan is now glad that they are continuing with the Hannibal story. Mads Mikkelsen is perfect for the role and the supporting cast is great, a terrific show if you are still waiting to start Hannibal. Starring in Hannibal are Hugh Dancy, Mads Mikkelsen and Caroline Dhavernas.

I'm not gonna lie... I couldn't get past the first chapter.
I absolutely hate when authors write their stories like an English report. So many good stories just irritate me from the start because the author refuses to use contractions! It's plain and simple, the regular human being does not talk the way that you write. In the story you're trying to get us involved in the lives of these people but it's incredibly hard when the diaglog sounds like something a robot would say. I just can't into the story because when you read it either in your head or out loud, it's really choppy. I doesn't flow like reading a regular conversation would. That's just my opinion.

The present invention relates to the construction of an electrode assembly for an implantable medical device such as a pacemaker or defibrillator, which enables it to be implanted, then easily explanted when necessary in a manner not previously known.
While the present invention will be described in a specific manner as being applicable to a pacemaker, it will be understood that the invention is applicable to any other type of implantable medical device intended to stimulate body tissue. Modem pacemakers monitor the activity of a heart and provide a stimulation pulse in the absence of normal heart activity. Advantageously, such devices are relatively small, lightweight and implantable. In order to sense and stimulate the heart, however, such pacemakers must be used with a pacemaker lead, an electrical conductor that carries electrical signals between the heart and the pacemaker. The pacemaker lead can be inserted into the heart transvenously through a relatively simple and well-known surgical procedure.
Lead extraction is required when an infection occurs and at times when products are upgraded or replaced. When infected leads must be removed, physicians have shown a desire to remove uninfected leads to rid the venous system and right ventricle of unnecessary hardware Current lead extraction techniques have proven adequate but can be time-consuming. The technique of extraction runs a high risk of lead separation. The locking stylet method can run the risk of jamming midway in the lead and is sensitive to inner diameters of leads. Such an occurrence can result in ineffective lead removal or lead separation. The laser extraction method is expensive and not readily available.
For some extractions, removal of the lead body is necessary and extraction of the distal tip is exceedingly difficult because of fibrosis on the myocardium to the tines. Tines are used to fixate and stabilize passive fixation leads. If the distal tip (including tines) were detached, the lead extraction could continue at a low risk.
A number of patents are somewhat definitive of the prior art in this regard. Connector appliances are known for easily and rapidly connecting a lead to an electromedical device, which may be implanted in the body of a recipient and also for disconnecting the lead. Typical of such appliances are U.S. Pat. No. 5,885,280 to Nettekoven et al. for "Electrosurgical Electrode Connector", U.S. Pat. No. 5,807,144 to Sivard for "Device for Affixing a Lead Connector to an Implantable Stimulator", U.S. Pat. No. 5,545,188 to Bradshaw et al. for "Cardiac Pacemaker with Collet-Type Lead Connector", and U.S. Pat. No. 5,489,225 to Julian for "Electrical Terminal with a Collet Grip for a Defibrillator".
More closely akin the present invention are patents, which disclose apparatus for implanting and explanting a distal lead to and from a desired body site. Typical of this group of patents are U.S. Pat. No. 5,261,419 to Osypka for "Cardiac Pacemaker Lead" and U.S. Pat. No. 5,207,683 to Goode et al. for "Apparatus for Removing an Elongated Structure Implanted in Biological Tissue".
It was with knowledge of the foregoing state of the technology that the present invention has been conceived and is now reduced to practice.
The present invention relates to an electrode assembly for a body implantable lead provided for the delivery of stimulation energy to a desired body site and includes a tip electrode having a face adapted for positioning at least adjacent the desired body site and a longitudinally extending axially aligned weld electrode engageably receiving a distal end of an electrical conductor at a proximal end. The electrical conductor is a coiled wire strand with an inner peripheral surface for fitting reception on an outer peripheral surface of the weld electrode. A connector member includes a fastener having an enlarged head and a threaded shank, the weld electrode includes an integral weld sleeve with an annular locking tab engageable with the enlarged head to prevent longitudinal movement while permitting rotational movement. The weld electrode has an internal bore for receiving an elongated stylet selectively engageable therewith for implanting the electrode assembly at a desired body site and for explanting the electrode assembly from that body site. The tip electrode includes an integral attachment sleeve having an outer peripheral surface extending in a direction away from the face thereof and having a longitudinally extending tapped bore for threaded engagement with the threaded shank of the connector member. The weld sleeve and the attachment sleeve are mutually stepped to prevent their relative rotation when in the locked position. An insulative sheath is fittingly received on the outer peripheral surface of the attachment sleeve and includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced, radially outwardly projecting integral tines.
This invention, then, concerns a lead that has a removable distal electrode which gives the lead the ability to be removed without traumatic surgery. This translates into reduced money and time for the lead extraction procedure. The mechanism is designed for a passive fixation electrode but it can easily be incorporated into an active fixation lead.
The invention is activated by a stylet that has a driver mechanism. In this embodiment, the driver mechanism is a flat blade screwdriver. Standard ball-tip stylets can and are used for implanting the lead and do not affect or activate the driver mechanism.
When a physician has determined that a lead has to be extracted, the first procedure is to pull on the lead to determine whether it can be removed without further surgical procedures. If that is unsuccessful, the physician has the option to detach the distal tip and remove the lead, leaving the tip in the fibrotic growth. This results in shorter time in the operating room and increased safety for the patient. The doctor activates the mechanism by inserting the screwdriver stylet into the lead and advancing the stylet to the most distal position. When that position is reached, the physician then rotates the stylet counterclockwise as if removing a bolt. The stylet engages into the slot of the detachable tip mechanism and further rotation of the stylet results in the tip detaching. The physician then easily extracts the lead.
It is a feature of the present invention to provide the construction of an electrode assembly for an implantable medical device such as a pacemaker or defibrillator, which enables it to be implanted, then easily explanted when necessary.
It is a further feature of the present invention to provide a surgeon with the option, in one instance, of extracting both the lead and the tip electrode if possible without undue harm to the surrounding tissue and, in another instance, of extracting only the lead, leaving the tip electrode in the fibrotic growth which impedes its removal.
Still a further feature of the present invention is to provide such an electrode assembly with a highly removable tip electrode for safer and less costly lead explants.
Yet a further feature of the present invention is to provide such an electrode assembly with a construction which activates with a special driver stylet.
A still further feature of the present invention is to provide such an electrode assembly with a lead, which becomes isodiametric for easy removal.
Yet another further feature of the present invention is to provide such an electrode assembly with a construction which handles like a standard RV lead at implant.
Other and further features, advantages, and benefits of the invention will become apparent in the following description taken in conjunction with the following drawings. It is to be understood that the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory but are not to be restrictive of the invention. The accompanying drawings which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this invention, illustrate one of the embodiments of the invention, and together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the invention in general terms. Like numerals refer to like parts throughout the disclosure.

FIG. 7 is a side elevation view of a screwdriver tip stylet used with the present invention;
FIG. 8 is a top plan view of the screwdriver tip stylet illustrated in FIG. 7; and
FIGS. 9 and 10 are side elevation views, in section, of the electrode assembly of FIGS. 2 and 3 being operated upon by the screwdriver tip stylet of FIGS. 7 and 8 and illustrating two successive positions of the electrode assembly according to the invention.
As earlier explained, hearts having pacing leads implanted occasionally become infected. This infection may or may not be cleared up with antibiotic therapy. When the therapy is refractory, the lead must be removed. Many times this procedure requires surgery and endangers the patient. In other situations, patients may have exit block or leads that are superfluous. It would be a benefit to the patient to have the leads removed if there was little risk to the patient.
Fibrosis is the healing mechanism of the body. When a lead is implanted, it is encapsulated with this fibrotic growth. On passive fixation leads tines are placed on the distal tip to fixate and stabilize the lead. If the lead is to be removed, the tines must be removed from the fibrotic growth to free up the lead.
With this as background, refer now to FIG. 1 which illustrates a cardiac pacemaker 20 for stimulating a heart 22, and a novel and improved electrode assembly 24 for the delivery of stimulation energy to a desired body site 26. A body implantable lead 28 connects the pacemaker 20 and the electrode assembly 24. Although the present invention will be described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be embodied in many alternate forms of embodiments. In addition, any suitable size, shape or type of elements or materials could be used.
Turning now to FIGS. 2 and 3, the electrode assembly 24 is seen to include a tip electrode 30 having a face 32 adapted for positioning at least adjacent the desired body site 26. A longitudinally extending weld electrode 34 is axially aligned with the tip electrode 30 and at a proximal end 36 engageably receives one end of an electrical conductor 38 within the lead 28. More specifically, at its proximal end 36, the weld electrode 34 has an annular recessed outer peripheral surface 40 and, typically, the electrical conductor 38 is a coiled wire strand having a distal end 42 with an inner peripheral surface 44 for fitting reception on the outer peripheral surface of the weld electrode. With the elongated coiled electrical conductor 38 thus coaxially received on, and attached to, the weld electrode 34, a connection is thereby obtained for achieving electrical continuity between the tip electrode 30 and the electrical conductor when the weld electrode and the tip electrode are in the locked position in the manner to be described below.
A connector member in the form of a fastener 46 having an enlarged head 48 and a threaded shank 50 extending away from the enlarged head is movably mounted on the weld electrode for selective engagement with the tip electrode and, when so engaged (FIG. 3), for moving the tip electrode longitudinally between an unlocked position (FIG. 2) spaced from the weld electrode and a locked position (FIG. 3) fixed against longitudinal and rotational movement relative to the weld electrode. The weld electrode 34 includes an integral weld sleeve 52 with a radially inwardly directed annular locking tab 54 engageable with the enlarged head 48 to prevent its longitudinal movement with respect to the weld electrode while permitting its rotational movement relative to the weld electrode.
In turn, the tip electrode 30 may include a suitable reservoir 56 for containing a therapeutic drug and an associated delivery system (not shown) to deliver the drug to the body site 26. Regardless, the tip electrode 30 includes an integral attachment sleeve 58 having an outer peripheral surface 60 and extending in a direction away from the face 32. The attachment sleeve has a longitudinally extending tapped bore 62 for threaded engagement with the threaded shank 50 of the connector member or fastener 46.
Continuing to refer to the tip electrode 30, an insulative sheath 64 is fittingly received on the outer peripheral surface 60 of the attachment sleeve 58. A plurality of tines 66 are integral with the insulative sheath 64 and project radially outwardly therefrom, respectively, at a plurality of circumferentially spaced locations. It is also noteworthy that the weld sleeve 52 and the attachment sleeve 58 are mutually stepped, as at 76, 78, respectively, to prevent their relative rotation when in the locked (FIG. 3) position.
The weld electrode 34 has an internal longitudinally extending tapped bore 68 for receiving an elongated threaded tip stylet 70 (FIG. 4) selectively engageable with the weld electrode 34 for implanting the electrode assembly 24 at the desired body site 26 and for explanting the electrode assembly from that body site. In a known manner, the stylet 70 is flexible but reasonably rigid torsionally with a suitable proximally located operating end 72 and a threaded distal end 74. When the threaded end 74 of the elongated threaded tip stylet 70 which is engaged with the tapped bore 68 of the weld electrode 68 (FIG. 5) and drawn in a proximal direction, in one instance, the entire body assembly (lead 28, weld electrode 34, and tip electrode 30) can be withdrawn from the body site 26 when the weld electrode and the tip electrode are in the locked position (FIG. 6) and, in another instance, the entire body assembly less the tip electrode (that is, lead 28 and weld electrode 34) can be withdrawn from the body site when the weld electrode and the tip electrode are in the unlocked position (as in FIG. 2).
The proximal end 82 of the enlarged head 48 of the fastener 46 is formed with a screwdriver engagement component. As illustrated, the head 48 is formed with a slot 84 to receive the tip end of a conventional spade type screwdriver. In this instance, the screwdriver engagement component is adapted to engageably receive the tip end 86 of an elongated screwdriver stylet 88 (FIGS. 7 and 8) which, when so engaged and rotated in one direction, can move the tip electrode longitudinally between the locked position (FIG. 9) and the unlocked position (FIG. 10).
With the construction just described, the goal sought at the outset, namely, the construction of an electrode assembly has been achieved for an implantable medical device such as a pacemaker or defibrillator which enables it to be implanted, then easily explanted when necessary in a manner not previously known. More specifically, this invention incorporates a threaded distal tip to be used with a threaded stylet and a detachable electrode, both for the purposes of improved lead extractability. Both of these ideas have current embodiments for passive fixation leads, but can also be used with active fixation leads.
This new lead extraction system provides a method that mechanically locks into the lead distal tip using the threaded stylet to provide direct force and control at the location where the lead adheres to the myocardium. This will greatly improve lead extractability. Insertion of the threaded stylet into the lead is typical of a standard stylet, but significantly more simple than the locking stylets used today. Direct force and control of the lead tip when explanting leads will eliminate lead fractures and fragments left in the heart.
If the threaded stylet proves to be ineffective in removing the lead or the physician wishes not to risk myocardial injury, detachment of the electrode tip from the lead body may be performed. A screwdriver type of stylet is inserted fully into the lead and engaged into a slot. Then rotating the stylet counterclockwise results in the electrode tip separating from the lead body. The small electrode tip is left encapsulated in fibrotic tissue. The lead is then removed and the myocardium is left unharmed.
While preferred embodiments of the invention have been disclosed in detail, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various other modifications may be made to the illustrated embodiments without departing from the scope of the invention as described in the specification and defined in the appended claims.

Driver selection
14V/20Ohms = 0.7A capability with flyback
If the two coils have independent magnetic paths (which I expect), low voltage flyback is the best. Either:
- 2 free FET (TO220 or DPAK) with flyback. The injector FETs have flyback applied already: on this 6 cyl machine that would use the two remaining high power FETs if you use the injector drivers, none to spare for other functions.
- or 2 stepper channels (free anyway, seems like a good choice) - finally it has been choosen
- or IGBTs. the IGBT-s have internal 400V clamping, but IMHO it's a bit rude to dump the coil energy in the IGBT. So I recommend to apply flyback diodes onboard if you choose this. (there are throughole pads for one end of the flyback diode at the IGBT)
If the 2 solenoids have the same magnetic path (very unlikely, only unipolar steppers have that), than high-voltage flyback (16V or above, 18..20V recommended) needed instead of low-voltage flyback:
- FET is good, but with high voltage flyback. Throughole 18V transient suppression diodes are easy to mount for either the DPAK FETs or a free TO220 FET.
- if using the injector FETs with already applied low-voltage flyback, an SMB diode must be replaced with an SMB transient protection to get high-voltage flyback
- SN754410 stepper chip is not sufficient, it has internal low-voltage flyback. L293 would work with external diodes, but we don't use it since v2
- IGBT is good, but high voltage flyback recommended.

After more than year of work, Whitley County Sheriff Colan Harrell and his deputies went knocking on doors Thursday morning in search of 14 suspected drug dealers, and two thieves.
"He kept the buy money," Harrell said of Kenneth Barnhill, 46, whose arrest warrant was for theft by unlawful taking. "He went right out the back door with it."
Harrell and his deputies along with Kentucky State Police and Whitley County constables Lonnie Foley and Andy Moses spread out across the count about 8 a.m. to pick up the individuals for whom they had secured warrants.
Deputies did not need to look far to find their first suspect. Judith Meadors, 52, of Canadatown was already incarcerated at the Whitley County Detention Center.
Arrested in the first sweep were:
• Johnny Satterfield, 34, of Williamsburg
• Danny Whitehead, 52, of Williamsburg
• Phyllis Whitehead, 50, of Williamsburg
• Michael Leach, 25, of Williamsburg
• Melissa Newberry, 34, of Williamsburg
Kentucky State Police went to Knox County in search of: Robert Leach, 45, of Gray, Martin Price, 42, of Heidrick, Matthew Johnson, 38, of Flat Lick and Tonya Estep, also of Flat Lick. Harrell said none of them were located, but the search will continue.
By early afternoon Thursday, Harrell reported that Diedra Partin, 52, of Williamsburg and Barnhill had both been taken into custody.
The remaining suspects include:
• David Vanderpool, 52, of Williamsburg
• Donald Hurst, 42, of Williamsburg
• Lovetta Bryant, 51, of Williamsburg
• Wendy Day, 33, of Williamsburg
Harrell said with the exception of Barnhill and Day, who both are accused of pocketing the buy money, confidential informants purchased prescription pain medications from the suspects at some point within the last year. As a result, deputies secured arrest warrants charging each individual with at least one count of trafficking in a controlled substance.
As Satterfield was led from his home by Deputy Kirk Mays, he said he had been the middleman for a single Suboxine pill on two different occasions to help out family members.
In most cases, the arrest warrants indicated the individuals had sold one or two pills to the confidential informant.
Harrell said it is not the number of pills, but the fact that the individuals are selling the pills in Whitley County.
"That is what the statute is, is selling pills," Harrell said. "We want to get them off the street whether they are selling one or two or three. Selling one is a felony."
Harrell credited Detective Sgt. Tim Baker for his efforts that led to securing the arrest warrants.
"I promise you there will be plenty more," Harrell said.

Strollers that are JPMA-certified are built with optimum durability and safety in mind, and these products have passed intensive safety tests.
Pneumatic or Air-Filled Tires
You should opt for strollers with three pneumatic tires that ensure the smoothest ride possible. However, make it a point to check the tire pressure on a regular basis and inflate the tires when necessary.
Durable 5-Point Harness
As with a regular harness in baby car seats, the jogging stroller should come with a 5-point harness that goes over your child's shoulders, hips, and in between the legs. This feature can keep your baby secure while reducing potential injuries in the event of a crash.
Safety Strap or Tether
The safety strap found on one end is connected to the back part of the stroller while the other one includes a loop that you can wear around the waist. The tether works by preventing the stroller from simply rolling away as you jog. With this feature, you can save the life of your child in case you trip with traffic as you run outdoors.
Parking Brake
You must make it a point to engage the parking brake whenever you need to park the stroller to prevent it from rolling downhill. Moreover, you need to double-check the brake since it must be fully-engaged to keep the jogging stroller in place.
Wide Canopy
This feature protects your child from various elements such as the heat of the sun, strong wind, rain and frost. So, when you shop for a good stroller, make sure it has a large canopy that can be positioned in a number of ways. This is a very important component in strollers, particularly when you are jogging in the evening before sunset or early in the morning.
Storage Basket
This is another good feature that good quality strollers have. The storage basket is used storing items that you and your baby will need when you are outdoors. It also serves as the lowest center of gravity that can keep the stroller from tipping over. Instead of putting the diaper bag or your purse on the handlebar like skillet handle cover, place these things in the basket to prevent the stroller from being tippy and unstable.
Folding Mechanism
An excellent stroller must come with a good folding mechanism that adds to the convenience of storing it when not in use. Although the wheels may be taken off and placed back on, a jogging stroller can take up more trunk space than regular small-wheeled strollers.
Cup Holders and Trays
A cup holder and tray can serve as an additional place to put small items that will add to your convenience as you take your morning or evening jog. These cup holders may be a bit shallow such as 2 inches deep.
These are only some of the things you need to keep in mind as you shop for the right stroller for your child. Consider these top 5 brands and key features you should look for in the best jogging stroller, so you can find the perfect product that suits your needs and standards.

Get the facts about Lock Haven University scores, and registering for elective lectures and seminars. Not all recruiting is done like NCAA Division I teams. College coaches spend a lot of their time at summer sports camps evaluating athletes, and offering tips and direction. This is a great chance to meet the coaching staff in a relaxed setting. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Lock Haven University Athletics information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Lock Haven University.
Track stars have revealed the secret to developing running speed. Most athletes simply run out of breath long before they need to stop running, because they aren't able to get the oxygen into their muscles fast enough. By taking deep breaths, and building up the supply of oxygen in your blood, you can prevent muscle cramps. As lactic acid builds up, and muscle fatigue sets in, untrained players think they've reached their limit.
Track teams, and well-coached basketball and football teams for that matter, train by sprinting short distances, over and over. It's not fun, but it works. After a few months of training, the lungs begin to process oxygen more efficiently, and players find that they can run long distances non-stop, or sprint for a longer period of time. Furman University martial arts may encourage student-athletes to apply via early decision. Students who are considering applying via early decision should be aware of the rules and obligations that this commitment entails. Beyond consideration for Lock Haven University scores, you may think about Molloy College special topics for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

|Quoting Dreadnought (Thread starter):
This administration is turning out to be the most corrupt in a long, long time, between the tax cheats, unprecidented pork barrel politics, blatant conflicts of interests etc.
|Quoting RFields5421 (Reply 1):
Heck, this administration has yet to beat the last one on resignation of cabinet appointees for taxes and immigration issues, and certainly cannot hold a candle to the conflict of interest of the last one.
Practically the only realtive clean, honest person taking office in 2001 was the President.
|Quoting RFields5421 (Reply 1):
I guess you mean since 1980-88?
That administration holds the record for the most convictions.
|Quoting Blackbird (Reply 7):
You do know that adopting an "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" approach to all matters in life just leaves everybody toothless and blind right?
Gerrymandering isn't right if a Republican does it or a Democrat.
|Quoting RFields5421 (Reply 4):
All it indicates is that the Obama administration has fewer old Washington hands well versed in DC politics.
|Quoting MadameConcorde (Reply 9):
Who is this Tony Rezko? This man seems rather obscure...
What is Rezko's political background?
How did he end up being one of BH Obama's close friends? Is he a Chicago lawyer?
Where is he originating from... and most of all what is his position in the current administration?... or is he just an advisor?
|Quoting Blackbird (Reply 5):
Strikes me as a method to perform gerrymandering. Not good.
Is there any recourse to this?
|Quoting RFields5421 (Reply 4):
All it indicates is that the Obama administration has fewer old Washington hands well versed in DC politics.
|Quoting RFields5421 (Reply 11):
Republican or Democrat on the local level, you want the highest count possible.

What is "gerrymandering"? Never heard this word before

|Quoting Mayor (Reply 12):
Oh, BS.........for a man to have promised to not use Washington "insiders", he certainly has gone against that promise.......
|Quoting Confuscius (Reply 18):
You're right, there wasn't enough change. Pres. Obama has three Republicans in his cabinet.
|Quoting Mayor (Reply 19):
You do know, don't you, that ex-Illinois Governor Blagoiovich (sp?) was a Democrat don't you?
Well, remember, they wanted "change". The problem was, nobody knew "change" to what.
The biggest 'fraud' threat is that the Census could result in higher counts in states which support the Democrats and lower counts in states which support Republicans. That strictly isn't Gerrymandering, because it does not involve drawing the district lines.
Besides the Congressional district influence, the census counts have their greatest impact on the amount of federal money which comes to a state, county or city.
Considering which political machine he learned at, it's not surprising that he has trouble with the truth. And for you to think that ALL Republicans are bad just shows how brainwashed you are. You do know, don't you, that ex-Illinois Governor Blagoiovich (sp?) was a Democrat don't you?
|Quoting Confuscius (Reply 20):
Quoting Mayor (Reply 19):
You do know, don't you, that ex-Illinois Governor Blagoiovich (sp?) was a Democrat don't you?
Yep, the problem with him is he got caught just like his Republican predecessor. The smart ones, like the current mayor, don't. Speaking of Mayor Daley, did you know that when he finishes his current term he'll be the longest serving mayor of Chicago, breaking his father's record.
|Quoting Blackbird (Reply 22):
Which could be used as a weapon. You could reward states that either have large amounts of democrats, or those that just play-ball by giving them huge amounts of funding, and punish states that have large amounts of republicans, or even those who just don't play ball by strangling their funds.
|Quoting Mayor (Reply 25):
Odd, don't you think? Is this the "change" you voted for?

TV's Madhubala, Drashti Dhami made her debut with Dill Mill Gayye. Since then there has been no looking back for this bubbly girl. With that naughty smile and legs to die for, Drashti has the oomph to carry off any outfit. A name that has recently making waves is of Krystle Dsouza. The actress with a million dollar smile has become the heartthrob of TV in no time. Currently acting in Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai, Krystle has a big male fan following. Sanaya who rose to fame with Iss Pyar Ko Kya Naam Doon, is definitely a beautiful girl. Remember her character with glasses from the show? The actress who is always seen in salwar kameez on her shows, sure has a body to die for. The TV actress, who rose to fame with Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka, gave us some of the best dance performances in the Season 2 of Zara Nachke Dikha. She eventually won the dance reality show proving that she is best at everything. Pretty as a picture, Sanjeeda who tied the knot with TV actor Aamir Ali recently, is extremely gorgeous.
