MAWRD United States Patent 3,403,314 CONDITION RESPONSIVE MOTOR CONTROL HAV- ING UNIJUNCTION FIRING CIRCUIT FOR A TRIGGERED SWITCH John T. Maynard, New Berlin, Wis., assignor to A. O. Smith Corporation, Milwaukee, Wis., a corporation of New York Filed Oct. 22, 1965, Ser. No. 500,966 6 Claims. (Cl. 318-227) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A split capacitor motor is connected to a power supply in series with a Triac or other bidirectional solid state gated switch. A capacitor firing circuit is connected to the incoming power line and connected to fire the switch. A unijunction firing circuit includes a thermistor in series with a capacitor to vary the time a positive pulse is applied to the gate of the unijunction transistor in accordance with the sensed temperature. The firing circuit is connected across the incoming power lines through a rectitying bridge circuit such that the unijunction transistor and the series thermistor and capacitor are parallel connected and energized with a pulsating direct current corresponding in frequency and phase to the incoming alternating current power. The unijunction transistor 14 includes a pair of base electrodes, one of which is connected in the circuit in series with a resistor and the opposite of which is is connected in series with the primary of the pulsating transformer connected to the Triac. A resistor is connected in series with the resistor and in parallel with the interbase circuit of unijunction transistor in series with the primary of the pulsing transformer.
This invention relates to a condition responsive motor control and particularly to a temperature responsive motor control for refrigeration motors and the like.
In air conditioning and refrigeration control systems, it is desirable to vary the speed of an alternating current motor driving an air fan for various reasons. In applicants copending application entitled, Dynamoelectric Machine and Control Therefore, filed on Jan. 29, 1965, with Ser. No. 428,975 and assigned to the same assignee as this application, a small split capacitor motor for controlling the air output of a hot air furnace system or heating system is disclosed. As disclosed in that application, a capacitor firing circuit is connected to the incoming power line and connected to fire a triggered symmetrical rectifier or switch which can be fired to conduct during both the positive half cycle and the negative half cycle of an alternating current input by an appropriate firing signal applied to one gate. The phase or time of the firing controls the voltage applied to the motor and thereby the speed of the motor. A thermistor is connected in a triggering circuit for the symmetrical switch to control the speed of the motor in accordance with a sensed temperature; for example, the bonnet temperature of a hot air furnace.
United States Patent 3,196,629 discloses a refrigeration system employing an air cooled condenser. The speed of the fan motor is varied to control the air flow in accordance with the condenser temperature. A unijunction firing circuit includes a temperature sensitive means to vary the time positive of a firing pulse in accordance with the sensed temperature. The circuit is connected to control firing of a silicon controlled rectifier which in turn controls the voltage application to .an alternating current motor to vary the speed of the fan motor and thereby control the air passed over a condenser. In the afore- 3,403,314 Patented Sept. 24, 1968 "ice mentioned US. patent, the current through an electric motor is varied to maintain a desired minimum condensing temperature.
In applications where the control is to be mounted .as an integrated part of the motor as shown in applicants previously identified copending application and in an air cooled condenser unit, the control circuit must be specially designed to operate in response to widely varying temperature conditions. Further, it is highly important that the firing circuit provide symmetrical firing of the switch on the opposite polarity half cycles of the alternating current signal in order to minimize or avoid creation of a direct current component in the motor circuit. A direct current component produces high losses, negative torque and noise in an alternating current motor. As a practical matter for commercial production, the circuit is preferably .adapted to provide control over various desired temperature ranges; ie the variation of the speed for a given variation in temperature will be different in various applications. Speed control between zero and maximum in one application may be desired within a 30 variation in temperature and within a 60 or 70 change in still another application.
The present invention is particularly directed to a temperature and voltage stabilized unijunction transistor firing circuit for symmetrically firing of a triggered switch means connected in a power controlling circuit with an alternating current motor. Generally, in accordance with the present invention, the firing circuit is connected across the incoming power lines through a rectifying bridge circuit such that the unijunction transistor and the firing circuit for the unijunction transistor are connected to be energized with a pulsating direct current corresponding in frequency and phase to the incoming alternating current power. A thermistor is connected in the firing circuit to control the precise firing point in accordance with temperature variation.
In a unijunction transistor, the required firing voltage at the emitter is generally proportional to and follows the varaition in the applied base voltage. The application of the pulsating current to the unijunction base circuit and through the firing circuit to the emitter provides input voltage stabilization. A variation in the incoming line voltage simultaneously'varies the voltage applied to both the base circuit and to the emitter circuit. In accordance with a highly important and unusual aspect of the present invention, a resistor is paralleled with the base circuit of the unijunction transistor. This has been found to provide highly stable conditions with variations in temperature while maintaining the tracking feature obtained by applying the full wave pulsing of the alternating current. This has been found to provide a significant improvement in operation over the conventional voltage clamping employing a Zener diode or other clamping means.
The present invention has been found to provide a highly reliable firing circuit for maintaining symmetrical firing of a controlled rectifier device and consequently application of the positive and negative half cycles of the voltages to an alternating current motor in a relatively simple and inexpensive means. Its very simplicity is one of its greatest advantages and improvements in the art of controlling motors.
The drawing furnished herewith illustrates a preferred construction of the present invention in which the above advantages and features are clearly disclosed.
The drawing is a schematic circuit diagram of a control for a split capacitor run motor applied to a refrigeration system of the type employing an air cooled condenser.
Referring to the drawing, the well known refrigeration condenser system is shown including a compressor 1 for producing flow of a suitable refrigerant through an air cooled condenser 2 and a refrigerant evaporator 3. The refrigerant flow through the system is controlled by a suitable thermal expansion valve 4 in the outlet of the exaporator 3 which may be regulated by a suitable temperature sensing device 5 connected to the evaporator. A fan 6 is mounted to pass air over the condenser 2 for condensing the refrigerant therein. The fan 6 includes an alternating current motor 7 which is preferably of the permanent split capacitor variety and consequently the winding for such a motor is diagrammatically shown. With proper design, the speed of a permanent split capacitor motor is directly proportional to the energization voltage supplied to the motor over most of the speed range. Consequently, by varying the portion or period of each positive and negative half cycle of the applied current, the speed of the motor can be accurately controlled. As disclosed in applicants copending application previously referred to, a triggered symmetrical switch 8 is connected in series with the motor 7 to the incoming power lines 9 and 10. The switch 8 is shown as a bidirectional controlled rectifier having a single gate 11 operative to fire the rectifier to conduct with the voltage applied across the main terminals with either polarity. A firing circuit 12 which particularly forms the subject matter of the present invention is connected to the trigger gate 11 of the switch 8 through a pulse transformer 13.
Generally, the firing circuit includes a unijunction transistor 14 connected to the A.C. power lines 9 and through a rectifying circuit. The unijunction transistor 14 is also a triggered device having a control emitter 15 connected to the power lines through a trigger branch 16 connected in parallel with the base branch 17 of the unijunction transistor which includes the pulse transformer. A temperature sensitive resistance element 18 is connected in the trigger branch 16 and mounted to the condenser Y coil or the like to provide a variation in the resistance of the trigger circuit in accordance with temperature changes at the condenser 2. In this manner, the precise firing point of the unijunction transistor 14 is controlled and it in turn controls the firing of the symmetrical switch 8 such that for any given temperature, the switch 8 is triggered to conduct for a corresponding period during the positive and the negative half cycles of the incoming alternating current power.
More particularly, in the illustrated embodiment of the invention, the split capacitor motor 7 is shown with the main running winding 19 connected in series with the power lines 9 and 10 and the symmetrical switch 8. The starting capacitor 20 and starting winding 21 are series connected in parallel with the main winding.
The symmetrical switch 8 serves the function of backto-back silicon controlled rectifiers or the like in that it is adapted to conduct during both the positive half cycle and the negative half cycle of the alternating current power if an input signal or current is applied to the single trigger electrode 11. The pulse transformer 13 has a secondary or output winding 22 connected in circuit to the trigger electrode 11. A primary winding 23 is close coupled to the winding by a suitable core and connected as a part of the unijunction firing circuit. Thus, whenever the unijunction is fired, it passes a current through the primary winding 23 and generates a triggering pulse in the secondary winding 22. Once the symmetrical switch 8 is fired to initiate conduction through the switch, conduction c0ntinues for the corresponding half cycle until the current drops to zero and reverses, which allows the symmertical switch 8 to regain its blocking state. Thereafter, the symmetrical switch 8 does not again conduct until another firing pulse is applied to the gate.
A resistor 24 and a capacitor 25 in series are connected directly across the symmetrical switch 8. This network reduces the voltage change with time which may cause false firing of the symmetrical switch. Further, the circuit dissipates the back electromotive force of the permanent split capacitor motor 7 during the interval that the device is blocking or nonconducting to maintain open circuit conditions.
The unijunction firing circuit 12 for the symmetrical switch 8 which particularly forms the subject matter of the subject invention includes a unijunction transistor 14 connected to the incoming power lines through a bridge type circuit, as follows.
A diode 26 in series with a resistor 27 is connected directly across the power lines 9 and 10 and polarized to conduct in one direction; shown from line 10 to 9. A similar resistor 28 is connected in series with a similar diode 29 across the lines with the diode 29 polarized to conduct in the opposite direction.
The unijunction transistor 14 is a conventional well known device and is schematically illustrated including a pair of base electrodes 30 and 31 and the emitter electrode 15. The one base electrode 30 is connected to the junction of the diode 26 and the resistor 27 through a resistor 32. The opposite base electrode 31 is connected in series with the primary 23 of the pulsing transformer 13 to the resistor 28 and the diode 29. During one half cycle, when the one line is positive with respect to the other line, for example, the power circuit through the interbase electrodes is from the line 9 through resistor '27, resistor 32, unijunction transistor 14, the primary 23 and the diode 29 to the opposite power line 10. During the opposite half cycle, the power path is from the power line 10 through the diode 26, the resistor 32, the unijunction transistor 14 and the primary 23 of the pulsing transformer 13, and resistor 28 to the upper power line 9. Thus, during each half cycle, the full half cycle is applied directly across the unijunction transistor 14 with the power path being unidirectionally directed through the unijunction transistor.
In accordance with the present invention, a resistor 33 is connected between the base 30 of the unijunction transistor 14 and the junction of the resistor 28 and the diode 29 and is thus connected in series with the resistor 32 and in parallel with the interbase circuit of unijunction transistor 14 in series with the primary 23 of the pulsing transformer 13. Resistor 33 functions as a stabilizing resistor. In a unijunction transistor, the interbase resistance is highly sensitive to temperature. In operation, the resistor 33 acts with the resistor 32 to divide the input voltage and maintain a selected percentage across the base electrodes 30 and 31. The resistor 33 is in parallel with the interbase resistance and minimizes the effect of any variation in the base resistance with temperature. Generally, the prior art devices have provided series connected resistors or a paralleled Zener diode to maintain a selected voltage across the unit. Although such modifications did not provide sufficient stability for application of the firing circuit for motor controls, particularly where widely varying temperature conditions are encountered as in the present application, the simple modification and application of the resistor 33 surprisingly provided an exceptionally high degree of stabilization to the point where the circuit has been satisfactorily operated over widely varying temperature ambient temperatures. The resistor 33 in one circuit as shown in the drawing reduces the drift in set point due to a F. variation in unijunction transistor 14 ambient temperature, from 25 F. to only 4 F. change.
The emitter 15 of the unijunction transistor 14 is connected to the trigger branch 16 of the firing circuit 12 which in turn is connected between the junctions of the rectifying branches. Generally, the trigger branch 16 includes the thermistor 18 having one end connected directly to the junction of resistor 27 and diode 26 and the opposite end connected in series with a resistor 34 and the parallel combination of a resistor 35 and a timing capacitor 36 to the junction of resistor 28 and diode 29. The emitter 15 is connected to the junction between the resistor 34 and the paralleled resistor 35 and capacitor 36. In operation, the pulsating voltage applied across the interbase electrode branch 17 of the unijunction transistor 14 is simultaneously applied across the timing or trigger branch 16. An in-phase pulsating voltage is therefore impressed upon both the trigger branch and the base branch. The current in the trigger branch 16 charges the capacitor 36 and impresses an increasing voltage on the emitter 15. The resistance of the thermistor 18 varies with the temperature condition and thus varies the time constant of the circuit including the capacitor 36 and the series connected resistor 34. Consequently, the precise time that the capacitor 36 will charge to the firing point of the unijunction transistor 14 in each half cycle varies with the resistance of the thermistor 18 and therefore the sensed temperature of the condenser. It should be noted that the voltage pulses applied to the emitter 15 and to the main interbase circuit of the unijunction 14 are in phase and further each will vary in the same manner and generally in proportion to changes in line voltage. Thus, if the peak line voltage increases, the peak voltage applied to the emitter 15 and to the base electrode 30-31 varies in the same manner and in proportion. As the applied interbase voltage increases, the firing voltage necessary .at the emitter 15 will increase and vice versa with decreasing voltages. It has been found that the present application providing the tracking or pulsating voltages to the unijunction transistor 14 and paralleled stabilizing resistor 33 and to the emitter 15 provide relatively precise tracking between the two circuits such that the firing point for any given temperature is maintained at a corresponding desired firing point within the corresponding half cycle.
A radio frequency choke 37 and a capacitor 38 are connected across the input terminals to the firing circuit 12 and the motor 7 to suppress transient voltages and suppress radio interference. The capacitor 38 functions to further reduce the false firing of the unijunction transistor 14 as a result of any fast rising line transients or interactions with other controls connected to the same supply lines.
The operation of the illustrated embodiment of the invention is summarized as follows.
The circuit is designed to provide a selected variation in the resistance of the thermistor 18 for a corresponding control temperature range which affects the predetermined variation in the speed of the motor. In operation the thermistor 18 may be selected for example to have a set point temperature providing 95 percent full load voltage to the motor 7.
With the thermistor 18 at the set temperature, the resistance of the firing circuit is such that the capacitor 36 will charge to the firing point and fires the unijunction transistor 14 which in turn through the pulse transformer 13 applies a pulse to the gate 11 of the symmetrical triggered switch 8 to apply 95 percent of the line voltage to the motor 7. The circuit will continue to fire at essentially the same angle during each half cycle to maintain application of the corresponding half cycles as long as the thermistor 18 is maintained at that temperature. If the line voltage should increase or decrease, the voltage applied across the unijunction 14 and particularly the base electrode 30-31 as it appears across resistor 36 will correspondingly increase or decrease. However, the voltage applied to the timing branch 16 and thus to the emitter 15 includes a corresponding variation and consequently corresponding tracking of the charging of the capacitor 36 and the generation of the firing voltage at the emitter 15 to maintain the precise firing point. As previously noted, the resistor 33 provides a stable percentage voltage across the base junction of the unijunction transistor 14 and consequently substantially eliminates the elfect of ambient temperature on the control. As a result of this structure and arrangement, this circuit is particularly adapted and may be mounted as an integrated part of the end frame of the motor for example as shown and claimed in applicants previously identified copending application.
If the sensed temperature varies, the negative temperature coefiicient thermistor resistance will vary inversely. If the temperature goes up, the resistance of the thermistor 18 in accordance with well known theory goes down. This will reduce the time constant of the timing circuit and consequently, the firing point is reached earlier in the cycle to fire the unijunction transistor 14 and the switch 8 and apply a greater portion of the applied current to the motor 7 and thereby increase the speed of the motor 7. This will increase the cooling effect to return the temperature condition to the desired set point. Conversely, if the temperature goes down, the temperature of the thermistor goes up to increase the time constant, retard the firing point and thereby reduce the proportion of the voltage and current applied to the motor 7. This in turn reduces the speed of the motor to allow the temperature to increase to the set point condition.
The present invention provides an improved motor control network having means to suppress transient and direct current components and means to improve the firing characteristics of a unijunction transistor firing circuit or the like under varying input voltage and operating temperature conditions.

PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 10 (UPI) -- Two boys, ages 11 and 7, tried to rob a woman at gunpoint outside a church in Portland, Ore., this weekend, city police said.
Police said they nabbed the pair Saturday as their alleged victim roared out of the church parking lot in her pickup truck, The (Portland) Oregonian reported. Police said they found the gun, loaded and cocked, on the 11-year-old.
Too young to be booked into the juvenile detention facility, they were released to their parents, the newspaper said.
Amy Garrett, 22, of Milwaukie said she at first didn't think the boys were serious, just kids "being tough guys" spouting profanity.
"They were children," Garrett said Sunday. "I didn't think they'd actually have a real gun."
But then they displayed the .22-caliber pistol and a box of bullets.
At that point, Garrett said, "My heart was racing."
At the same time, a woman across the street was phoning police after her son told her he had seen the 11-year-old carrying a gun.
The young holdup artists demanded Garrett surrender the truck to them, but she pointed out the gas tank was near empty and they wouldn't get far. They then demanded money, but she told them she was broke. She refused to turn over her phone.
When the 11-year-old grabbed her arm, Garrett slammed the truck into reverse and drove way. Looking back, she said she saw the boy waving the gun in the air and the police pulling up.
"I literally thought I was going to die," Garrett said. "If the cops hadn't come right then, I'm sure he would've fired it."
"All it would have taken was a pull on the trigger," police Sgt. Pete Simpson said.
"I've never heard of a 7-year-old being involved in an armed robbery. These weren't just two kids goofing around."

Indeed, the RadTreeNodes do not have client IDs. However, you can either assign such on the server or create the tooltip dynamically on the client. For such cases we have prepared the following demo which shows both the approaches:
If you want to tooltipify only particular nodes, you should add the only their ClientIDs (which you programmatically set) to the TargetControls collection or create dynamically tooltips only when they are hovered - in this manner the other nodes will not get tooltipified.
Note, also, that if you have ajaxified the sorting, you should make sure that you also update teh tooltip manager with AJAX when sorting.
Please, examine the code and use it as a start point for your implementation.
On a side note, when you install RadControls, our online examples projects are automatically installed on your computer and you can not only examine their full source code, but also extend them further in order to meet your requirements.

I am furnishing the following interesting news report which I found in "The Telegraph" dated 17.09.2006, for the benefit of RTI community:
New Delhi, Sept. 16: Fighting a case against a government official but fed up with the roadblocks in getting the necessary documents from unwilling babus? Put your faith in the Right to Information (RTI) Act.
Documents that may help beef up a legal case can be sought under this legislation even if the matter is already in court, says the central information commission.
The commission — an independent panel appointed as the legislation's custodian — has clarified that government bodies cannot deny documents to an appellant on the ground that the matter is sub judice.
Many people have been denied information just on this plea, based on a dodgy interpretation of a clause in the RTI Act.
"We believe that people fighting a legal battle have every right to be given information that will help them in the case. Government bodies have been wrong in denying information claiming the matter is sub judice," chief information commissioner Wajahat Habibullah has told The Telegraph.
He feels that most such cases have a strong "public interest component, which makes transparency extremely important".
For instance, Rajeev Agarwal, a senior manager at Wipro, had decided to take on Delhi's traffic police after being told by officials to pay the "mandatory" bribe to get his driving licence renewed.
Rajeev shot off a letter to the traffic police, asking to be told the procedure for lodging a complaint against the officials who had asked for the bribe.
After waiting in vain for a reply, he filed a case and, under the RTI Act, sought details of appointments in the traffic police.
This time he was told that since the matter was now sub judice, the traffic police were not obliged to provide him with the information.
Habibullah's clarification has made Rajeev happy.
"I was told there would be no point applying to the central information commission as the matter was sub judice. Now I feel I can get the documents that will help me win the battle against corruption in the transport department," he said in his sleek, wooden-panelled office overlooking the Lotus Temple.
Mahaveer Singhvi, a young Indian Foreign Service probationer, is another appellant who was denied information on the same ground.
Dismissed from service, Mahaveer is fighting a case against the Central Administrative Tribunal in Delhi High Court. He is waiting for documents relating to his dismissal from the foreign ministry.
The contentious clause —Section 8(1)(j) — of the RTI Act says: "Information which cannot be denied to the Parliament or a State Legislature shall not be denied to any person."
It, however, does not say the converse — that information that cannot be produced before Parliament or a state legislature should not be made available to any person, as has been interpreted by government bodies.
If a matter is sub judice, documents relating to it cannot be produced in Parliament or a state legislature.
The link to the above is furnished herunder:
Sub judice? Itâ019s no bar to info act

Actor David Arquette is raising awareness about hunger by spending time inside a Plexiglas box atop New York's Madison Square Garden marquee.
The star of the "Scream" movies, who started his two-day stint in the box yesterday, hopes to raise $250,000 for Feeding America, the nation's largest domestic hunger relief charity.
Donations are being accepted on-site or through text messages and Facebook. Arquette, 37, will have food during his eight hours a day in the enclosure.
HBO saved by vampires
Much to its relief, HBO has finally discovered that there's life after "The Sopranos" and "Sex and the City."
The pay cable network had a strong week. The vampire series "True Blood" had a series high of 3.9 million viewers Sunday. The second episode of "Hung" was up 29 percent from its premiere. And returning hit "Entourage" had its biggest audience in more than two years.
It was a slow summer week for broadcasters. "America's Got Talent" is clearly the summer's most-popular new series.
For the week of July 6-12, the top five shows were: "America's Got Talent" (Wednesday), NBC; "NCIS," CBS; "America's Got Talent," (Tuesday), NBC; "Two and a Half Men," CBS; "The Mentalist" (Tuesday), CBS.

Good Points
Quality build (as with anything Salomon)
Sharp turn radius
Firm but flexible
Great ski for the powerful intermediate skiier to advance on
Bad Points
Costly but not a downside really as they're an investment
General Comments
I was lucky enough to get my Tornadoes on sale from a ski shop on Ebay paying around £300 rather than the full price in the region of £550-600. These were complete with the Salomon Z12 binding.
The ski itself in a solid piece of kit with all the hallmarks of Salomon quality. They are truly awesome to ski on. Though mostly an on piste carving ski, they're perfectly capable off piste where the riders ability is present.
I've not felt as confident on another pair of skis, though these are my first pair of owned skis, those I have borrowed or rented have paled in comparison.
The sharp turning radius and stiff(ish) edges allowed me to progress my technique carving no end and have opened up a whole new feel for skiing at speed and on the steep.
If, like me, you're a 'powerful' skiier with a well built frame (6 ft, 85kg's, powerful legs & core) who skis at an intermediate getting on for advanced level then these skis are well worth considering. They've truly helped me come on and I feel more confident to throw myself at anything the mountain has to offer. Except the park, I'm keen but these skis aren't right for the park!
Written on: 25/09/2007
Apologies, some information that I had forgotten to add:

My skis are length; 170 (Cm) Sidecut (124mm/75mm/107mm) and have a turning radius of 14.5m

The length chosen to suit my stature and ability, the sidecut makes these great on piste and capable off, and the turn raidus proves that they are going to turn very sharp in an carved turn.

Top 10 Social Networking Sites by Market Share of Visits 2008-2011
Three years of US social networking market share data on a single chart. Facebook is winning more and more users. The only social website that has some traction compared to Facebook is YouTube with 19.22 percent. MySpace is declined to oblivion with only 1.67 percent of market share remaining. One small but consistently growing site seems to be LinkedIn. However, LinkedIn is niche site limited to "business people", so its penetration should remain below 5 percent even if they are wildly successful.
The chart supports my idea that there can be only one major social networking site. Only geeks and marketing droids are active on more than one social network at the time. It's just too time consuming to be fully active on several social networking sites. As you can see from LinkedIn and Club Penguin there are some niches that might resist Facebooks dominance.
The chart below is in logarithmic scale so that the smaller sites wouldn't just a single line around 1% of social network market share. Every month in the chart lists the top 10 sites of that time by the market share of visits. Please note that it is just a percentage and 30% in January 2009 is a lot less than 30% in September 2010. The gaps in the the lines mean that the site wasn't in the top 10 at that time.
I used an interactive chart making software Tableau Public for this visualization. If you don't see anything below please try reload. If all else fails then look at the image or download the chart in PDF format.

Royals third baseman Mario Lisson ranked on the back end of Kansas City's Top 30 prospects in 2005 and 2006, but fell off this season after a second straight year in the low Class A Midwest League.
But last year was the most time Lisson spent on the field, playing 130 games at Burlington and wound up hitting .263/.368/.421 with 13 homers in 463 at-bats.
Signed as a nondrafted free agent in 2002 out of Venezuela, Lisson was one of former Royals' general manager Allard Baird's favorite prospects. Still just 22 years old, Lisson is off to a hot start at high Class A Wilmington, coming off a 5-for-5 night on Thursday in the Blue Rocks' 4-3 win against Kinston.
And an American League scout had plenty good to say about the third baseman:
"He moves really well for a big kid," the scout said. "He just seems to get very good reads. I've seen him make plays going back on balls that would have caused a lot of guys fits over there, and I've seen him charge balls and make that throw on the run.
"Good lateral movement as well with plus arm strength. Offensively, he puts the ball in play–solid, disciplined hitter. He hit balls hard all over the place the last few days. Line drive stroke that he'll shorten up when he needs to. Smart hitter.
"This is a guy who might be getting it all together."

The mentalist lets a spectator examine a small cylinder closed on one side, its lid and a die, all of them being made of brass. This may also happen with the magician's back turned on the audience. The spectator chooses a number from the die and puts the die back in the cylinder with their chosen number faced up. Afterwards they close the cylinder with its lid. The performer turns back toward the audience, grabs the cylinder and after concentrating for a few seconds, names the chosen number. In the end the spectator opens the cylinder showing the correct insight.

Jimmy Love's stands strong on Fifth Avenue in one of the best locations in the Gaslamp Quarter. But when was the last time you actually stepped inside? If your story is anything like mine, it was during a post-Mardi Gras dance party circa '07. You don't even want to know.
Word on the street is, Jimmy Love's is poised for a complete renovation this summer. The man on the job? Ty Hauter, of course -- the incredibly busy man behind the new Block No. 16 Union & Spirits (opening late June), Bootlegger, Bub's at the Ballpark, Knotty Barrel and Double Deuce, just to name a few local projects. Hauter's restaurant and entertainment venue design and consulting firm, Good Time Design, has signed on to bring the love back to Jimmy. The debut is slated for August.
Jimmy Love's 2.0 will boast a new American menu served in a social dining atmosphere. You can look forward to grubbing on 'gourmet' stuffed burgers, American-style tapas, and a selection of dishes served 'en papillote' style, which basically means the goods are cooked in parchment paper to bring out the flavors. And don't worry friends, the dance parties will live on. Jimmy Love's will continue its tradition of live music, and will mix things up with DJs and diversified bands, from jazz to funk, as directed by Hauter and crew.
We're most excited about what's happening downstairs. Hauter is converting the lower level of Jimmy Love's into an aircraft carrier-themed lounge called Hangar 5. Did anyone else just get nostalgic for the old Airport Lounge? Maybe Hangar 5 will gift us with sexy bartenders clad in captain uniforms. A girl can only hope…
Jimmy Love's is located at 672 Fifth Ave., on the corner of Fifth & G St. in downtown San Diego, and will remain open with regular business hours during the renovation process. Learn more at jimmyloves.com

LANHAM, Md. (CBSDC) – D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray is outraged over the United States Secret Service's decision to close streets that created severe traffic problems in the nation's capital.
WNEW Senior Correspondent Mark Segraves obtained a copy of a letter Gray sent to USSS Director Julia Pierson on Tuesday after the mayor learned the southbound lanes of 14th Street NW had been closed for several blocks. The roadway is considered one of the busiest in the city.
"These actions create gridlock in and around this area that will cause tremendous inconvenience to tens of thousands of District workers and visitors especially during rush hour," the letter reads. "To treat the District with such disrespect is simply unacceptable."
Read: D.C. Gives Final Approval to Marijuana Decriminalization
Tuesday's closure marked the second time in a year USSS officials closed streets around the Willard Hotel due to visiting dignitaries. Such VIPs typically stay at Blair House which is currently closed for renovations.
Gray states in the letter that he does not understand why the USSS insists on dignitaries staying in a location that results in a significant portion of downtown being "paralyzed by traffic."
The mayor requested city officials meet with USSS to review planning protocols and ensure similar situations do not occur in the future.
D.C. Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton has also been made aware of the situation, according to the mayor.
The USSS declined to comment on the letter and gridlock surrounding the street closures.

The leaders of the Sweetwater Union High School District deserve praise for deciding not to follow through on plans to borrow $58 million in voter-approved bond funds to pay operating costs this fiscal year and to then backfill the bond borrowing with state funding arriving early in the 2011-12 fiscal year. But their willingness to entertain the scheme is alarming.
Dianne Russo, Sweetwater Union's chief financial officer, cites language in the California Education Code allowing a temporary transfer of funds. But the Education Code is trumped by the California Constitution, which says school bond funds cannot be used for operating expenses. What's more, district auditors had already warned the district over similar borrowing in the 2008-09 and 2009-10 fiscal years.
In an interview before Sweetwater Union officials changed their minds, Russo offered a sweeping defense of the proposal and suggested critics didn't understand state law and the Education Code. But the constitutional language is there for a reason – to guard against abuse of bond money. Russo and the district should have known that.

Hakim sings in Italy for children with cancer
Egyptian singer Hakim is scheduled to hold charity concerts in Italy for the children's cancer hospital that is to be built in Egypt. Hakim will hold performances in Rome and Milan which are sponsored by Egyptian businessman Khairi Hassan who has been living in Milan for the past 25 years.
According to the Egyptian based daily, Al Ahram, Hakim has announced that he will donate the proceeds of his concerts to the children's cancer hospital project in Cairo.
A number of Egyptian singers and actors collected a total of 4 million dirham during two charity concerts held in Dubai in February of this year for the building of the new hospital.
The total cost to build the hospital is around 70 million US dollars. So far a total of 50 million US dollars has been collected over the past two years. Renowned Lebanese singer Majida Al Roumi had also held a charity concert at the Cairo Opera House. The proceeds of Majida's concert were donated to the children's hospital specializing in the treatment of cancer.
Hakim had suddenly decided to terminate all plans for a new film "Hasan El Shater" (Good Hassan), which he was to begin filming. The singer decision came as a surprise, especially since he had made a commitment to dedicate his time completely for the film and has in fact been extremely busy with all the necessary preparations.
Hakim realized that he is neglecting his singing career with all his time going into the making of the film "Hassan Al Shater" and so decided to cancel it altogether in order to dedicate his time and effort to his music. Hakim added that he is currently preparing to begin working on his upcoming new album, which will take up all his time. –Albawaba.com

Annual Salary Survey
Before the calendar turned, 2016 already had the makings of a pivotal year for manufacturing, and for the world.
There were the big events for the year, including the United States as Partner Country at Hannover Messe in April and the 2016 International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago in September. There's also the matter of the U.S. presidential elections in November, which promise to shape policy in manufacturing for years to come.
But the year started with global economic turmoil, as a slowdown in Chinese manufacturing triggered a worldwide stock hiccup that sent values plummeting. The continued plunge in world oil prices has resulted in a slowdown in exploration and, by extension, the manufacture of exploration equipment.

Seven steps to training success
Another tool is the 20 to 30-minute toolbox training session led by a skilled craft worker on short topics like sheave alignment, laser shaft alignment, or belt tension gauges. These should appear on the training schedule as well. In addition to capturing the training for each individual in human resources' training management software, use individual work orders to capture the skills and knowledge trained on plus the actual training hours. As part of the performance review and continued development planning, you can review work order history to determine the number of hours of training and content that each worker has received during the course of the year.
Until now, we have focused on the tools. Now we have to put the tools in the background, bringing learning to the foreground, which is the fifth step. If you are the manager, you have a responsibility to ensure the individual has the proper environment to learn. Conducting training on-site when the individual is constantly being pulled from the class is frustrating to the craft worker and the trainer.
I suggest you consider offsite training locations where possible, such as a hotel conference room. Once the training is complete, the job expectations have to change so that the craft worker has the opportunity to apply what he or she learned. Be careful of setting yourself up for failure with the approaches you take, especially when it comes to pay.
For example, one organization used a concept called secondary skills to encourage workers to learn and work on equipment in a different area. Learning the secondary skill provided a 50-cent hourly increase in pay. These workers were not called to apply the skills until 3 to 5 years later while collecting the extra pay for every hour worked in that time. When management finally asked them to cross over to the other secondary skill areas, they threw up the safety flag as some of the equipment had changed over the years. When faced with expensive conferences or courses, use the approach of training the trainer.
Build a training 'loop'
Require the people attending the course to develop a presentation on their return, and train the others. A benefit to this is as the attendees know the expectations, they tend to be more attentive as opposed to lounging on the beach, only returning at the end of the day to pick up the attendance certificate. This also allows you to stretch your training dollars and works well for conference-type workshops.
A word of caution: While it may be tempting to copy an expensive training course, using an educational group's copyrighted material to train others is both unethical and illegal. It could cost you dearly.

Seth Sternberg, CEO of Meebo, is on stage right now talking about MeeboMe, his company's embeddable IM widget (stats: 900,000+ unique URLS, 9 million unique visitors to unique widgets, 54,000+ unique widgets seen). He was just demoing the product on the MeeboMe MySpace profile, showing how he could see who was visiting the page at the same time as him and start a one-on-one chat with any of them.
Then someone logged in from the audience to ask "why can't you see other people's messages on this page?" Good question — I was wondering the same thing! "It's not necessarily group chat," explained Sternberg. "Even though there may be 10 people on the page, you're having a private conversation." Cool example of widgets in action.

All operators have 3G licenses. Will it mean change of handsets?
Most UMTS phones are capable at of operating at several UMTS frequencies already, in fact the iphone can operate at 4 HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100. Check GSMARENA website if you want to know more about your own phone.

Operators have been testing kit for a few years now, so they don't need to roll-out a "few test sites". It's already done.
Market rumour says O2 already have equipment in the field ready for a launch. Voda on the other hand are stuck with old Ericsson kit which can't be upgraded to UMTS 900 (so it is said). But it will happen sooner than later, since UMTS coverage is generally poor and GSM900 operators can get big benefits from UMTS900. To the customer, they can't tell (and don't care) which frequency they are using, so there isn't really a negative market issue - just migrate people over if they have a capable device.
In GSM1800, the situation is different. Why deploy UMTS 1800 when it isn't much better than UMTS2100? Better to skip to LTE. In either case, a new deployment is needed.
Expect a major upgrade program from everyman & dog over the next 2 years. That's quite a short time in network terms.
You haven't really disagreed with me, I wouldn't be suprised if 02 already have some UMTS900 kit out there ready to turn on especially in rural areas. Just don't think it's a real biggy and I still think UMTS will be out the door as soon as LTE kicks off so I reckon skipping and concentrating on deploying this is the best option for the Networks and us users. Can you see people getting rid of their home fixed line BB and replacing it with unpredictable UMTS? I can't and won't but with LTE coverage I'd be ringing my fixed line provider the very next day...
In Germany E-Plus has also successfully petitioned to run 3G on 900 MHz. Fun because they withdrew from the expensive 800 MHz "digital divide" auctions.
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Regulierer-erlaubt-E-Plus-UMTS-Nutzung-der-GSM-Frequenzen-1156114.html (in German)
Will the winners of the Guard Band spectrum be allowed to run 3G? It's an interesting proposition because all the decent picocells are 3G. If you wanted to have a very local network it makes a cheap solution.
I believe the Guard Licenses are already allowed to use it for whatever they want but UMTS needs a 5MHz carrier so additional bandwidth would be needed.

Sometimes amid all the news about H5N1, the "old and boring" diseases get overlooked, such as chickenpox and mumps.
State health officials said they are concerned about a rare strain of virus behind an outbreak of 60 mumps cases in Iowa.
Mary Gilchrist, director of the state's University Hygienic Laboratory, said the genotype G strain is infrequently seen in the United States. With the number jumping from 17 cases just two weeks ago, she predicted there could be more outbreaks this spring.
"If the past predicts the future, it will get worse in April," she said.
(Continued below)
Recall that, while mumps currently is chucked in there with chickenpox and measles as a "harmless childhood disease," prior to mass vaccination, mumps, a paramyxovirus, was the leading cause of viral encephalitis in the United States. While not a highly deadly disease, it did account for a large number of hospitalizations and a good deal of morbidity (the fancy name for "bein' sick").
And sure enough, it seems to be getting worse. The latest update from the Iowa Dept. of Health Center for Acute Disease Epidemiology notes that as of March 23rd, there have been 187 likely cases of mumps–69 of them confirmed. The age range is all over the scale, but most of them remain clustered in college-age kids (fully a third of the confirmed cases are in students currently attending college). And though the majority of cases have had at least one MMR (measles, mumps & rubella) vaccine, only 65% report 2 doses, with 9% reporting 0. Additionally, I'm not sure how close the vaccine strain is to the G strain causing the outbreak–even with higher vaccination coverage, there may not be enough cross-reaction to get good protection. (Just tiltin' in the wind a bit here–I couldn't find much info on the genetics of the vaccine strain or good cross-protection studies involving serotype G–any mumps virologists out there?)
Anyhoo, it will be interesting to compare the molecular epidemiology of the strains (vaccine vs. current outbreak strain). Dr. Gilchrist mentions that the virus may have arrived here on a plane, which may seem a bit strange to folks who are used to thinking of Iowa as more tractors than jets, but recall that many of the cases have so far been here in Johnson county–home to U of Iowa and 30,000 students from not only all over Iowa, but also around the country and the globe. As I'll discuss further tomorrow, this is fertile ground for an outbreak of infectious disease.

I know someone asked before. I am completely blind in low light or no light. During the day my best corrected vision ranges from 20/70 to 20/100 in the better eye but my left is much worse than my right. I also have trouble seeing low contrasting things. Jillian-the cane really helps take my word for it. I am also learning braille now and I love it. It makes my day so much easier.

Hey Jillian,
I am not blind in one eye but my vision in the left is severely worse than the right. My adaptive gym teacher is always joking because he was trying to teach me how to shoot a basketball and I kept throwing it to the right.
The cane is really helpful-take my word for it.
I also just started to learn braille just like you. It is really helpful and I can read for a lot longer because I am not straining my eyes. Good Luck!!!!!!!!!

At iBelieve.com, we strive to offer authentic and real life stories for women in all stages of life. Being a mom can be one of the most rewarding yet most challenging time in a woman's life. Find timely advice for raising your children to love God and follow a Biblical worldview while escaping for moments of mommy encouragement and refreshment! Whether you're a mom of 1 or 10, single mom or step mom, we want to supply you with the tools you need to be an effective example of God's love and grace in your home!
Single parenting has become a hot-button issue for many churches around the country. There are approximately 15 million single parents in the United States today with numbers continuing to rise. Almost 50% of today's marriages are failing and 49% of American babies are born outside marriage. Throw in military families with spouses on extended duty, incarcerated parents, and widows; we can see the numbers of parents going it alone are significant.
Unfortunately, in the past, the body of Christ has struggled to find the proper response to the above-referenced statistics. While single parenting numbers continue to grow, a survey cited in The Church and the Single Mom (Carepoint, 2011) found that 67% of single parents in the United States do not actively attend a local church. Yet, less than 1% of all Christian evangelical churches have any sort of long-term, sustainable single parent ministry and/or outreach program. In the past, churches have tended to fall into one of several response categories, when it comes to the needs of single parents in their communities:
Do you know how sometimes in life God births a dream and passion so great within you that it keeps you up at night? Maybe for you it is seeing orphans find homes or helping others become good stewards of their money. For me, that passion is single parents. My dream began when I was a 19-year-old, completely broken, teen mom who knew my life was worth far more than what I was portraying. God whispered into my heart the passion to see other single moms, like myself, live a life of freedom, hope, and joy. It is actually funny now, because I wasn't even serving the Lord at the time. (Isn't that just how our Savior works?) But I know in that tiny government-subsidized apartment, oh so many years ago, God planted a seed.
The truth is, we are all affected by single parenting. Maybe you are a single parent, and you experience the difficult journey on a daily basis. Or maybe you were raised by one. Maybe you work with one or have one in your family. All of us know a single mom.
May I put this in perspective? Imagine you are a mom with two precious angels and a loving husband. Your husband is called away on business once every few months or maybe he travels extensively with his job, leaving you behind to parent for days or weeks on end without much help. Now, imagine that weeks turn into months and months turn into years. Now, imagine that you receive no financial help, no parenting advice, no words of encouragement. It never ends. This is reality for many parents across our communities.
Maybe the single moms in your life seem like they have all together. There are some amazingly, strong single parents today and many are achieving financial and parental success, as well as emotional and spiritual freedom beyond what they would have ever expected. But even those strong, amazing single parents could use a helping hand.
Here are some ways you can get involved and make a difference in a single parent's life:
Jennifer Maggio is considered one of the nation's leading authorities on single moms and womens' issues. She is an award-winning author and speaker who has a God-given passion to see women walking in total freedom. She is founder of The Life of a Single Mom Ministries and has been featured in countless media venues.

What Georgia's Spring Game Means for Bulldogs' 2013 SeasonApril 7, 2013
Another SEC East championship and an opportunity to take the conference outright is expected of the Georgia Bulldogs in 2013.
The spring game just gave us a glimpse of that potential for this season.
Obviously quarterback Aaron Murray is a strong focal point after tossing for 200 yards and two scores, not to mention a 66.7 completion percentage. After an impressive 2012 campaign, following that up thus far into the offseason paints a confident picture for the fall.
When autumn rolls around, expect Murray to be provided with another playmaking receiver in Jonathon Rumph, who really shined as he accounted for two receiving scores on Saturday. His impact creates great depth and balance, because the production of running back Kyle Karempelis (124 total yards) adds to Georgia's backfield options.
We know the Bulldgos will run the rock effectively and a slew of capable receiving targets will prevent opponents from constantly stacking the box.
As a result, the Dawgs will start contests off much more effectively and form a safe pocket for Murray to survey any coverage.
Elsewhere, the starting defense showcased its talent despite key losses in Jarvis Jones, John Jenkins, Alec Ogletree and Bacarri Rambo to the 2013 NFL draft. David Ching of ESPN.com writes of the defense from coordinator Todd Grantham's perspective:
"The first drive, they got some points there and I thought there were some drives that were a little nervous and their eyes maybe weren't where they should be, but there were also some plays that they hadn't seen before," Grantham said. "But once we got into the normal flow of the game and the things that we've repped and it was things that they kind of knew, [they played well]."
Holding the red squad to just 17 points, Damian Swann and Co. also limited the starting offense to a mere nine first-downs and recorded six sacks.
While Swann had three defended passes, linebacker Ramik Wilson led the unit with eight tackles.
In short, with a core group of linebackers capable of filling running lanes and blitzing when needed, the Dawgs won't miss a beat next year. Now giving up some big plays certainly remains a concern, but there is also plenty of time to buff out the rough spots.
The red team saw dependable numbers from its defense, as linebacker Kosta Vavlas notched 12 tackles and John Taylor amassed seven tackles and two sacks.
Once again the Bulldogs possess sound depth across the board and are quite athletic to boot. Even better, injuries are not too extensive at the moment. David Ching also wrote of the banged up players on Saturday:
The Bulldogs experienced a couple of injuries during spring practice before Saturday -- most notably a hand fracture for senior offensive lineman Austin Long, a hamstring pull for sophomore cornerback Sheldon Dawson and a torn meniscus for junior receiver Malcolm Mitchell.
But Richt believed his team came out of Saturday's scrimmage free of any major injuries. Defensive lineman John Atkins left in the second quarter with an apparent knee injury, but Richt did not believe it was serious.
Factor in a winnable schedule where Georgia faces South Carolina and LSU at home, and the Bulldogs won't see Alabama or Texas A&M unless either appear in the SEC title game. The spring game may just be an exhibition matchup; however, its essence displayed a snapshot of the young potential.
With the established talent of coach Mark Richt's starters, the Bulldogs will make another run at the outright conference title.

Many urban homes in Saint Paul, Minnesota, were built on hills above the street. The lots often slope down steeply to a sidewalk, and the majority of these slopes are planted with lawn. I've seen people pulling their lawnmowers uphill with ropes to cut the grass. I've also seen people standing under their running lawnmowers to push them uphill.
But things are changing, and recently gardeners who are both adventurous (with plants) and cautious (with lawnmowers) are replanting their slopes with a variety of gardens.
Here are a few samples of slope gardens in my neighborhood, with my best guesses about the identities of the plants:
A slope can be an asset to your property. Shaded or sunny, it offers you the chance to make a bold artistic and architectural statement. I hope this sample of the many possibilities will inspire you to create your own unique slope garden.
This Sunset Book is packed with photos if you need more design ideas.

Bilge pumped fail or battery died = Moomba at bottem of the lake. Help us!!
Hey all,
New too the forum. Looking for some much needed advice.
Last June my buddy and i were in Vegas got a call that are boat was sinking.
Here is the 27 min video of the recovery of the boat: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OrmgjJMHtI
So we believe it was a bilge pump failure and combination of the battery dying.
We just put a new transmission in it and we have it running. But now we want to be able to prevent it from ever having this problem again.
So this is where we need help!!
What is the best battery and bilge pump solution? We would like to leave the boat in the water up too two weeks at a time. Without the battery's dieing on us and the pumps stop working.
Thanks in advance

Slavery is real
Human trafficking is the fastest growing crime of the 21st century. Selling girls and women into slavery generates $32 billion per year - half of which comes from western nations like the United States. Nineteen year old Austin Knight has decided to do something about it.
During his freshman year of high school, Austin watched a documentary on the Eastern European slave trade detailing the ongoing trafficking of females as young as five years old from distressed European nations. Perplexed by this reality, he channeled his frustrations into a website manifesto.
Austin's interest grew - and so did Slavery Is Real. The focus of his website is simple: to raise awareness and take action against human trafficking. From speeches and campus events to athletic competitions and fundraisers - this fast growing University of Kentucky based non-profit has established a formidable presence such that students can't help but stop, learn, and take action.
This month taking action means participating in the Strides for Freedom campaign. Twelve dedicated runners are enduring a 200 mile, 30 hour long journey through the state of Kentucky to raise awareness and funds for Slavery Is Real.
Awareness is the most critical component for Slavery Is Real. You don't have to travel to Eastern Europe or the third world to encounter slavery. The United States is one of the top buyers of slaves. Within five years, it is estimated that human trafficking will surpass the drug trade and become the largest organized crime entity in the world.
To Austin, however, these numbers merely cloud the faces.
Imagine staring into the eyes of 27 million enslaved human beings and seeing what their lives have been like. Imagine their faces. That's what Slavery Is Real fights for - the people; not the statistics. That's our greater purpose.
Today Slavery Is Real serves their Lexington, Kentucky community. However their reach expands everyday. For Austin, awareness drives action, and action drives change. Slavery is Real is a catalyst that can alter human trafficking forever.
