PHILADELPHIA -- Like a dad handing over the car keys to his son on prom night, Celtics coach Doc Rivers placed his team's fate in Rajon Rondo's hands on Wednesday. It was time to trust the point guard. Instead of triumphantly justifying Rivers' decision, however, Rondo ground the gears, spilled soda on the upholstery and returned the family sedan with a big scratch on the side. There was very little to find appealing about the Celtics' Game 6 loss to the Sixers, and the least attractive aspect was a sputtering offense Rivers had entrusted to Rondo. "He wanted to play...

2000 Standard Plumbing Code Online Classes Chapter 9 Venting of Plumbing Systems GEORGIA PLUMBERS' TRADE ASSOCIATION 1517 Lucky Street Griffin, Georgia 30223 (770) 229-1288 Fax (770) 229-1422 Email email@example.com Venting Requirements The requirements set forth by the 2000 Standard Plumbing Code for the venting of plumbing systems are some what different than what was found in the earlier editions. When the International Plumbing Code was developed as a national code, they reviewed the three major plumbing codes used across the nation. What they found was that the venting requirements used in the southeastern area of the U.S. were, for the most parts, outdated. Other plumbing codes had been updated because of new data and products but the code used in Georgia was not. We used the philosophy that "If it ain't broke don't fix It ". Many of the changes in this chapter have been used in other parts of our nation and over seas for decades without any problems. This class will look at many of the changes and the major requirements for venting plumbing systems. Understand that venting and air flow is necessary throughout the system. Venting is used to equalize air pressure to insure the proper movement of waste and fluids from the point where it is introduced into the system to its place of disposal. DRAIN LINE OR SEWER Lower half is for the movement of waste and the top half allows the movement of air. VENT VENT Air Waste DRAIN DRAIN DRAIN SHOULD NEVER BE MORE THAN HALF UNDER MAXIMUM USE CONDITIONS. 901.2 Trap seal protection. The plumbing system shall be provided with a system of vent piping that will permit the admission or emission of air so that the seal of any fixture trap shall not be subjected to a pneumatic pressure differential of more than 1 inch of water. ■ (Trap seals are generally 2 inches and more than 1 inch water column pressure can cause loss of trap seals) SECTION 903 VENT STACKS AND STACK VENTS 1994 STANDARD PLUMBING CODE SECTION: 904 VENT STACKS ■ 904.3 Main Stack 904.3.1 Every building in which plumbing is installed shall have at least one main vent stack or vent stack, of not less than 3 inch diameter, for each building drain when connect separately to a building sewer or septic tank. Such stack shall run undiminished in size and as directly as possible from the building drain through to the open air or to vent header that extends to the open air. This is the wording found in the 1994 Standard Plumbing Code. A three inch stack was required on all plumbing systems. This was first introduced in areas where they had combined storm water ands sewer system and the pressure in the pipes would greatly increase when ever there was a rain storm. The three inch vents acted as relief valves for the system. These systems are now outlawed and other plumbing codes have dropped the requirement for the three inch vent unless the fixture load required a vent of this size. On the following slide you find the wording of the new code. 2000 STANDARD PLUMBING CODE SECTION: 903 VENT STACKS & STACK VENTS ■ 903.1 Stack Required ■ Every building in which plumbing is installed shall have at least one stack the size of which is not less than one-half of the required size of the building drain. Such stack shall run undiminished in size and as directly as possible from the building drain through to the open air or to vent header that extends to the open air. As the code now only requires the a vent to be one half the size of the drain it is connected to, a three inch vent would only be required where the fixture load required a six inch drain. It is highly unlike that a drain of this size and a three inch vent would be necessary on a residential plumbing system because of the small fixture load. Because some jurisdictions still have combined sewer systems, the State of Georgia added the following appendix to the code so local governments could adopt it for enforcement and require a three inch vent. Several jurisdiction have adopted this appendix even though they do not have combined sewers.They still feel that this vent is necessary for the systems to work properly even though it has been proven that they work just as well with a smaller vent. Georgia Amendments to the 2000 Standard Plumbing Code APPENDIX J GENERAL AMENDMENTS *** Local Jurisdictions are permitted to adopt specific sections from this Appendix without adopting the entire Appendix. *** CHAPTER 9 VENTS SECTION 903 VENT STACKS AND STACK VENTS 903.1 Stack required. Every building in which plumbing is installed shall have at least one stack a minimum of 3 inches (75 mm) diameter except accessory buildings, which shall have at least one stack a minimum of 1 ½ inch (37.5 mm) diameter. Such stack shall run undiminished in size and as directly as possible from the building drain through to the open air or to vent header that extends to the open air. (Effective January 1, 2001) 901.3 Chemical Waste Vent System. ■ The vent system for a chemical waste system shall be independent of the sanitary vent system and shall terminate separately through the roof to the open air. To protect the environment and to keep contaminated material from entering the sewer and waste system, the code requires and systems where harmful chemicals and waste are produced or used must be vented separately from the main plumbing system. 901.6 Engineered systems. Engineered venting systems shall conform to the provisions of Section 918. ■ Engineer Stamped Drawing ■ Computer Design ■ Table 918.2 allows 1/2, 3/4, 1 inch venting on engineered systems Engineered systems can reduce vent sizes even smaller as shown in Table 918.2. Plumbing systems installed over seas have used vents as small as 1 inch to vent an entire plumbing system. This practice is not new and has been used for over a hundred years. 903.1.1 Connection to Drainage System. ■ A main vent that is a vent stack shall connect to the building drain or to the base of a drainage stack in accordance with Section 903.4. A main vent that is a stack vent shall be an extension of the drainage stack. The difference between a Vent stack and a stack vent is illustrated on the following page The difference between a Vent Stack and a Stack Vent A vent stack carriers A Stack Vent is an extension no waste and is strictly of a soil or waste stack to a stack for venting provide venting 903.2 Vent Stack Required. ■ A vent stack shall be required for every drainage stack that is five branch intervals or more. ■ 1994 SPC stated: A vent stack or main vent shall be installed with a soil or waste stack when ever back vents, relief vents, or other branch vents are required in two or more branch intervals Again you can see the new code requires less venting 903.4 Vent Connection at Base. ■ Every vent stack shall connect to the base of the drainage stack. The vent stack shall connect at or below the lowest horizontal branch. Where the vent stack connects to the building drain, the connection shall be located downstream of the drainage stack and within a distance of ten times the diameter of the drainage stack. 903.4 Vent Connection at Base. WASTE VENT STACK STACK HORIZONTAL BRANCH FLOOR NOT MORE THAN 10 DIAMETERS OF THE HOUSE WASTE STACK SIZE DRAIN Keeping the vent stack within 10 pipe diameters of the waste stack connection eliminates the possibility of pressure effects on the system's traps. SECTION 904 VENT TERMINALS 904.1 Roof Extension. ■ All open vent pipes that extend through a roof shall be terminated at least 6 inches above the roof, except that where a roof is to be used for any purpose other than weather protection, the vent extensions shall be run at least 7 feet (2134 mm) above the roof. ■ Ga. Amendment requires 6 inches ■ Extension above roof was changed to from 5' to 7' 904.4 Prohibited Use. ■ Vent terminals shall not be used as a flag pole or to support flag poles, television aerials or similar items, except when the piping has been anchored in an approved manner. 904.5 Location of Vent Terminal. ■ An open vent terminal from a drainage system shall not be located directly beneath any door, openable window, or other air intake opening of the building or of an adjacent building, and any such vent terminal shall not be within 10 feet (3048 mm) horizontally of such an opening unless it is at least 2 feet (610 mm) above the top of such opening. SECTION 905 VENT CONNECTIONS AND GRADES 905.1 Connection. ■ All individual, branch and circuit vents shall connect to a vent stack, stack vent, air admittance valve or extend to the open air. 905.3 Vent connection to drainage system. ■ Every dry vent connecting to a horizontal drain shall connect above the centerline of the horizontal drain pipe. 905.3 Vent connection to drainage system. SECTION 906 FIXTURE VENTS 906.1 Distance of trap from vent. ■ Each fixture trap shall have a protecting vent located so that the slope and the developed length in the fixture drain from the trap weir to the vent fitting are within the requirements set forth in Table 906.1. 906.1 Distance of trap from vent. 8* * 2001 GA Amendment to table SECTION 909 WET VENTING* ✶ 2001 GA Amendment adds additional Wet Vent options in Appendix I. To enforce the provisions of this appendix, a local government must formally adopt it. (See GA Amendments) 909.1 Wet Vent Permitted. ■ Any combination of fixtures within two bathroom groups located on the same floor level are permitted to be vented by a wet vent. The wet vent shall be considered the vent for the fixtures and shall extend from the connection of the dry vent along the direction of the flow in the drain pipe to the most downstream fixture drain connection to the horizontal branch drain. Only the fixtures within the bathroom groups shall connect to the wet vented horizontal branch drain. Any additional fixtures shall discharge downstream of the wet vent. 909.2 Vent Connection. ■ The dry vent connection to the wet vent shall be an individual vent or common vent to the lavatory, bidet, shower or bathtub. The dry vent shall be sized based on the largest required diameter of pipe within the wet vent system served by the dry vent. 909.3 Size. ■ The wet vent shall be of a minimum size as specified in Table 909.3, based on the fixture unit discharge to the wet vent.

Why Vine is perfect for brands to reach teens
Vine is an emerging app that is perfect for reaching the not-quite-20-somethings as the precious demographic leaves traditional social media sites, according to the Silicon Valley Business Journal.
A study released by Piper Jaffray illustrated that teens are finding Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google+ and Pinterest less important. Facebook's user base, for example, has been trending older for a while. Vine is doing to YouTube what Twitter did to Blogger: Simplifying the media publishing process for even greater scalability.

Investors' appetite for hedge funds has abated somewhat in the face of this summer's difficulties, but not enough to keep the industry from its annual inflow record-breaking.
Hedge fund managers added $45.2 billion in new assets in the third quarter, according to Hedge Fund Research. Year-to-date, investors have added more than $160 billion to hedge funds, easily surpassing the record of $126 billion set last year. All told, hedge funds now manage some $1.81 trillion.
The good news notwithstanding, investors are putting less new money into hedge funds as the year goes on—and bad news makes a splash in the headlines. The $45.2 billion inflow was significantly lower than that in the first two quarters of the year—$60 billion and $58.7 billion, respectively—and is the lowest level since the final quarter of last year, when hedge funds added just $16.8 billion.

ProPark DBU platform for online courses
On the 22nd of June, www.proparktraining.ro, the platform for online courses dedicated to future Protected Area specialists, has been opened to the public.
The first online session in 2015 is accesible to 85 selected participants that have been targeted amongst people directly or indirectly involved in the management of Protected Areas, as well as students enthusiastic and motivated to start working for Protected Areas.
During and after 6 weeks of intensive study within the virtual platform, the students will be evaluated. Based on the results, the first 30 students will participate at face to face sessions to become the first certified Protected Area Specialists in Romania.
The platform is developed within the project "Increasing education opportunities on sustainable development for Protected Area managers in Romania" implemented by Propark Foundation for Protected Areas with the help of EUROPARC Federation and financed by DBU – Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (German Federal Foundation Environment).
The EUROPARC June eNews is now out!

Check our new section on capacity building for Protected Areas in Europe
Our goal of protecting the unique variety of wildlife, habitats and landscapes in Europe can be achieved only by developing our professional capacity to effectively manage Protected Areas. A competence-based, systematic and comprehensive approach to capacity building is therefore needed to enable us to achieve conservation goals at national and European level.
The section on capacity building is a first step towards the development of a coherent, competence based approach to Protected Area professionalization within Europe. It is launched now as a portal providing information on capacity development needs in 23 Eastern European countries, recommendations on how to strengthen the capacities at regional, national or local level and initiatives to develop the professional capacity of Protected Area staff. But we hope that it will grow into a Europe-wide portal on this important domain.
The section presents the unique initiative of developing national and regional plans in 2 pilot countries and one region which can be used as a model approach to be replicated in other countries and regions.
The section was developed as a result of the project "Capacity Building Plans for Efficient Protected Area Management in Eastern Europe", implemented by PROPARK Foundation for Protected Areas in Romania, and commissioned by the German Federal Agency for Nature Conservation (BfN).
The project will be finalized in November 2015, so stay in touch for updates!
Learn more about the Project here and get to the Capacity Building Section.
The 2015 TransParcNet Meeting across the Czech-German border has just started!
The beautiful Šumava (CZ) and Bavarian Forest (DE) National Parks are hosting the 2015 TransParcNet Meeting. These transboundary Parks will be the location of an exciting training until this Friday.
This year's meeting will look at "The value of healthy ecosystems for nature and people" from a transboundary perspective. Participants will study practical examples of raised bog restoration in the Bohemian Forest as well as the natural dynamic of ecosystems and their effects on biodiversity.
Moreover, they will enjoy views on the area from mountain tops and tree top walks, learning about the value of visitor management in order for everybody to benefit from the natural landscape.
The training will take place during the whole week and should be an amazing opportunity once again to develop good practices in transboundary cooperation, discover cross-border partnerships in other parks and look into common project ideas.

Sprint Closes on Acquisition of Clearwire With $80M USD Loan
Jason Mick
February 27, 2013 4:47 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: Adrian Mendoza)
DISH's higher bid is on the verge of collapse due to its onerous terms
Sprint Nextel Corp. (
) is perhaps the most intriguing force in the U.S. telecommunications market. While it's currently
performing miserably
, bleeding customers and revenue, it's also in a process of evolution that could make it a leaner, more competitive power.
Key to that process is Sprint's gamble to fully acquire Clearwire Corp. (
) a telecommunications company that Sprint currently owns a 50 percent stake in. Clearwire holds a large amount of scarce spectrum, and what's more much of the spectrum is in the same LTE band used by Softbank Corp. (
) in Japan.
Softbank is
in the processing of acquiring a majority (70 percent) stake
in Sprint. With the new deal Softbank could save money by essentially sharing top smartphones between the American and Japanese markets, in theory.
There is a risk, though, as Sprint offered
a relatively low buyout price of $2.97
USD/share -- or a total of $2.2B USD. Shareholders refused to vote on the deal and were reportedly unhappy with it. Also on the table is a rival offer from DISH Network Corp. (
) at $3.30 USD/share. However, the DISH deal appears on the verge of collapse given that it was loaded with debt/equity swap conditions and commercial agreements, which seemed onerous.

In a sign Sprint may be on the verge of winning, Clearwire offered preliminary approval for accepting a loan of $80M USD from Sprint. That loan is a convertible debt obligation. If the shareholders vote to block the sale to Sprint, the debt is converted to shares.
The $80M USD in financing would be enough to dilute current shareholders' stake by 3.5 percent. Clearwire declined to accept $160M USD in funding in January and February, as it was still considering DISH's proposal.
Many view its acceptance of the March payment as a sign that DISH's bid is officially sunk.
analyst Walter Piecyk told
that it is unlikely that DISH Chairman Charlie Ergens would be willing to back down from the extra conditions to save his company's bid. Wells Fargo & Comp. (
) analyst Jennifer Fritzsche argues that at this point DISH's best hope of saving the bid is to "pursue litigation" -- perhaps sue Sprint and the shareholders -- as its price is signficantly higher than Sprint's.

Sprint's road would have been much easier, were it not for its own debt struggles, prior to the Softbank hookup. Those struggles forced it to initially
its stake in Clearwire
to prevent a debt trigger from being reached.
But inaction plays to Sprint's advantage. If the DISH deal is sunk, Clearwire's rising debt will likely necessitate it to take on more of Sprint's convertible loans, which in turn may give Sprint enough of a stake to break the fragile coalition of shareholders opposing the deal.
Softbank's plan to reform Sprint will also
rely heavily on prepaid phone customers
under the Sprint, Boost Mobile, and Virgin Mobile brands. Prepaid is one of the only sectors to grow at Sprint; an LTE boost from Clearwire could further enrich the prepaid options.

Bowman's Carpet CareRead MoreBowman's Carpet Care operates efficiently thanks to the brains and brawn of two brothers, a father, and a powerful, truck-mounted carpet-cleaning system. Winner of a 2011 Angie's List award, the familial trio tends to all manner of messes, providing clients with services that include care for upholstery, tile, grout, and carpeting. The team's hot-water extraction technique—one of its most popular cleaning methods—busts up dirt with superheated, pH-balanced water. And after the steamy mist subsides, the team members back their work with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, just in case a technician misses a spot or accidentally removes your favorite coffee stain.2236 Fisher Ave.Speedway, IN US
Moving DawgsRead MoreMoving Dawgs is owned and operated by off-duty firefighters, veterans of the United States Armed Forces, or service members. They put their muscles to use in clients' homes and offices, carefully transporting belongings into their truck and setting them up in new locations. They also haul away junk that can't be taken by a garbage truck or eaten by the neighborhood goat with their company Fire Dawgs Junk Removal.1657 Christopher Ln.Speedway, IN US
Here To There MoversRead MoreJoshua Baxter was born to move. As a child he was so entrenched in his family's auction business that when Joshua was 16, his father pulled him aside and told him it was time to take an active role. So, Joshua took his driver's test in the truck the family used to pick up merchandise, and at 19 he bought his own truck, handling the transportation of the often-valuable antiques. That skill and preternatural understanding of merchandise transportation led to the birth of Here To There Movers. Now, Joshua has trucks headquartered in five Midwest cities. Here To There Movers' technicians know that the transport of belongings from one abode to another is one of life's most stressful affairs, even more than interviewing for a position at the local bomb diffusery. The licensed and insured staff can arrive at a moment's notice, equipped to handle bookshelves, boxes, and pianos. Here To There provides a frequently asked questions page and moving tips for the befuddled house-swapper or recreational vagrant.6800 East 30th StreetIndianapolis, IN US
American MattressRead MoreFor more than two decades, American Mattress has promoted peaceful slumber in bedchambers throughout the Midwest with their vast selection of mattresses, headboards, and linens. The sleep experts strive to stay abreast of the latest bedding technology: their Serta mattresses are made with gel foam that supports curves, and Tempur-Pedic mattresses repel allergens, mites, and poltergeists looking to spoon.

Additionally, American Mattress doubles down on each of its beds with a 30-day comfort guarantee and a 60-day best-price guarantee.4909 E 82nd StIndianapolis, IN US
Robyn's GroupRead MoreRobyn's Group LLC deals with all the textiles and flooring in a home that typically get overlooked until something goes wrong. Its technicians are not only trained in how to clean carpets, but also how to repair them onsite. And if a pipe bursts, causing some impromptu carpet cleaning on its own, Robyn's is available to extract the water 24/7. Similarly, the techs can steam- or dry-clean upholstery and install blinds from brands such as Lafayette Venetian Blind, Inc. and Hunter Douglas Inc. Finally, Robyn's can turn its cleaning machines to floors to lift up grime from tile, marble, granite, slate, and sandstone. Staffers can also re-coat hardwood floors to make them look fresh, which is a far easier process than applying makeup to floors with a giant foundation brush.111 Monument CircleIndianapolis, IN US
Elite Auto Image, Inc.Read MoreElite Auto Image Inc.'s MECP-certified technicians personalize vehicles with custom electronics, including audio, video, and remote-start systems, and stand behind their work with a lifetime warranty on labor.

Fast and friendly service. Rolls are very tasty with more taste than Subway.
Little higher in price than the competition but worth it for a better sandwich.
wont go there again. was charged $50 for 2 foot long subs. Ludacris! Service was also slow. I looked up menu pricing online which did not exist, had to call the next day.
Nice soft bread with substance and flavor (unlike the air bread at Subway). Tasty meats and cheeses. These folks do sandwiches right.
Great location by the waterfront, downtown, and the Holiday Inn. They have good sandwiches and fast service even for a large group.
Skimpy on the meat, no grill, no fries. Do not order a hot sub because they do not have a grill and will use a microwave to make your sub.
Great location, very helpful staff.
We came in at 10AM and ordered 4 full subs and requested that they put EVERYTHING on the side for us, as we were visiting family and weren't sure what they'd want (on our visit in from out of state). They were quick, efficient and friendly, even though we just go there when they were...
Pun intended. This Cousins pales in comparison to others. Usually staffed by teens, this location has food quality that is below the standard Cousins. There is no grill or fryer, so don't order a hot sub or you will see the staff microwaving your food. A cheesesteak sub microwaved is not even close to a grilled version. Hot subs should...
I move away from Wisconsin for 18 years, and a Cousin's sub is what I would always have to get, at least once, on my travels back. It's really hard to say what they do to make their sub sandwiches more desirable to me, but they better never change what they do.
I have been to this location on numerous...

Publisher's Description
As we dive into the Father s heart we are overwhelmed by His presence, the fullness of joy. From this place we begin to see from His perspective. As we see and understand His world we are compelled to intercede.We are now praying and speaking with fresh insight.We see that we no longer have to pray from a place of defense. Instead we pray offensive prayers from His presence. When we speak our petitions and most important our declarations into the atmosphere, authority and breakthrough come. From the intimate place with our Father everything is birthed.

XML is cool in flex, but I have an annoying problem to solve, caused by what I can imagine is a feature. You see, when you have just one tag of something, it creates an object which is not an array. But when finds more than one, it puts it on an array structure.
I want to solve it elegantly. Any recommendation.
Example: this illustrates it, being the result of a HTTP request:
private function initXMLRes(event:ResultEvent):void
var resObj:Object = event.result;
for each(var i:Object in resObj.specifictag)
// to use specifictag attributes, etc. example:
The code before will work with 2+ items. It will accept this xml:
<specifictag name="one" /><specifictag name="two" />
... but not this one:
<specifictag name="one" />
I could check the format of resObj.specifictag (to check if it is has an array) and then duplicate the code (for each case). But -even if it's calling a function- I don't think it is an elegant solution.
Well, I hope someone has a good idea on this matter. (I know from experience that SO has much more C++ experts than flex, but well...)
The perfect thing would be that HTTPrequest handled every tag in a consistent way (using always arrays... though I'm guessing that that would also have its drawbacks).
