Broker's License Requirements
Rockwell has everything you need to get your broker license!
With our Broker's Packages you can choose combinations of anywhere from two to eight of the following courses. Some packages include the Cram for free, for even more savings!
This practical real estate course offers guidelines in areas such as listing agreements and purchase and sale agreements, pricing property, qualifying the purchaser, agency relationships, financing, and other information pertinent to the real estate practitioner.
Real Estate Appraisal gives you an overview of both the theoretical and practical aspects of the subject, with an emphasis on residential appraisal practices. It provides you with a solid understanding of collection and analysis of appraisal data, analyzing the highest and best use of a property, estimating cost and depreciation, selecting and analyzing comparable properties, the three methods of appraisal, and preparing appraisal reports.
Financing Residential Real Estate gives you an overview of both the lending process and the guidelines used to qualify homebuyers for mortgage loans. It covers loan underwriting standards, conventional loans, FHA loans, VA loans, seller financing, fair lending, and predatory lending.
Legal Aspects of Real Estate offers an overview of the legal concepts that come up most often in real estate transactions. This course discusses the laws governing the ownership and sale of real estate in California, examines common problems in real estate transactions, and provides examples from actual court cases.
Real Estate Economics offers an overview of the economic aspects of real estate. It discusses the government's role in the economy, important economic features of real estate, regional and community analysis, community growth patterns, housing markets, commercial and industrial markets, rural and recreational property markets, land use controls and real estate development, and the income tax aspects of investment.
Any or all of these three elective courses: California Real Estate Principles, Property Management, or Advanced Legal Aspects of Real Estate.
Rockwell's Cram Course is designed to help you focus on the essential information that's most likely to be tested on the exam. You get several practice exams, a detailed outline of the topics most likely to be tested on the state exam, and a math review mini-lesson. This exam prep course is included for free when you purchase 5 or more broker courses.

A Star Medal is an item found in Super Paper Mario. They can only be acquired by purchasing them at Howzit's shop at Flipside for fifty coins. When used, it gives the Player 1,000 Points, which is immediately added to their score (3,000 if the Speed Flower or Slow Flower is used).
Gold Medals are a stronger variety of the Star Medal, which add ten thousand Points to the Player's score, but cost five-hundred coins each.
Using these is beneficial as points serve as the player's EXP points in the game.

ACT's Plastic Bag Ban is now in effect and started on 1 November 2011.
View the interim review report.
Plastic Bag Ban information in English (30kb)
Plastic Bag Ban information in English (20kb)
Useful information for retailers - This is where retailers can find information about the ban and how to prepare for it.
Useful information for the community - This is where the community can find information about the ban including which bags they can and cannot use
Which bags will be banned and which are allowed?
Plastic Bag Ban resources - A range of resources have been developed to help retailers with the phase out of lightweight, checkout-style plastic bags.
Useful information on Australian Standard plastic products - The list is supplied by the Plastic and Chemicals Industry Association and it should be noted that only four products on this list comply with the Australian Standard. The ACT Government does not endorse any suppliers of these products.
The ACT plastic bag ban followed a four month transitional period which began on 1 July.The consultation process sought views from members of the community about how they use plastic bags in and around the home, as well as their opinions on a possible ban or levy. The plastic bags community consultation was undertaken by consultants Manidis Roberts on behalf of the ACT Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate.
The ban followed a comprehensive study of community attitudes towards the use of plastic bags in the retail environment carried out in August 2009. In December 2010, the ACT Legislative Assembly passed legislation to ban lightweight plastic bags in the ACT. The Plastic Shopping Bags Ban Act 2010 can be downloaded from www.legislation.act.gov.au

Oh dear. The sky is falling, again.
Sadly, the majority, who reject this nonsense, are in control, AGAIN.
This will continue until the sky falls. Then the folks who rejected the notion of the sky falling will call upon the people who said it was falling to bail them out, but they won't be able to... Huh?
Apparently the number of people who are gloating that they are better off than others is falling. And this is bad.
Although the writer didn't say anything about that, this is also somehow linked to Christianity. Giving all you have to the poor is no longer a part of Christianity. Did I miss the part where Jesus was a venture capitalist? There must be a secret Gospel somewhere that I missed out on, where the rich will save the world.
Yes, the world is doomed. Tell your kids.
Uh, nope. My kid is is full of hope and determination. The world is fresh and new for him. But then, he's not a bitter old fart with no future.
Ever watched Lord of the Rings, where Denethor wants to burn his son because of his own despair? That's the GOP. Your fear stinks.

Thoughts and Reactions to the Packers 2012 Draft Class
Saying that Ted Thompson and the Packers focused on defense in the 2012 NFL Draft wouldn't be strong enough. Thompson used the Packers' first six draft picks exclusively on defense before drafting Andrew Datko in the seventh round.
The heavy emphasis on defense wasn't the only difference in this years' draft for the Packers. After trading up just three times since taking over draft day responsibilities for the Packers, Thompson traded up not once, not twice, but thrice to get players.
Round 1: Nick Perry, OLB, University of Southern California
Perry fulfills a specific need while providing great value to the Packers at the 28th pick. Perry should be able to make the transition to OLB and fit nicely opposite Clay Matthews. It would appear that Perry will be the starter making the jump over Erik Walden, Brad Jones and Frank Zombo. With some coaching, Perry should be able to make an immediate impact on the Packers defense.
Round 2: Jerel Worthy, DT, Michigan State
With a pick I would have been pleased with in the first round, the Packers traded up and grabbed Worthy. The combo of Perry and Worthy will come into Green Bay with big expectations, similar to Matthews and B.J. Raji. Worthy will immediately improve the Packers defensive line lined up alongside Raji and Ryan Pickett. Worthy not only adds to the pass rush, but allows the Packers flexibility on the line because of his size.


text: HI ive got an 88 ranger v6 the dual tanks. My problem is that when i switch the tank to rear there is red wire starts to melt. Also there is no power to either rear tank or at the switch unless i jump the circuit. I tried disconnected the forward pressure pump on the left frame and it runs when jumped and the truck starts if i put the fuel line in a 5 gallon gas can. The truck runs great and is in excellent condition otherwise. I saved it from the crusher one day. Any help would be appreciated maybe a procedure to follow. Also an idea of how the dual tank setup works and its components. Thanks.

The Snowboarding Legend
On the chairlift heading up to the top of the mountain. Seeing tricks like never before. People hitting air, doing three sixtys, and gringing the box. So surprised I wanted to try it. Getting to the top of the mountain I was thinking of the cool breeze hitting my face on the jump, aplouse while grinding, and the feeling of being and having a success. Starting down the mountain I tried to catch air. I ended up falling on my face! Getting back up i wanted to try a three sixty but i didn't know how to turn. So, I tried the grind. I fell off and every one laughed at me. I didn't want to ever snowboard again! My brother convinced me to keep trying so I said," One more try." I went back on to the mountain the next day and learned practice makes progess. I started to learn more and more and soon I became as good as the PROS!!!!!!
outstanding work!
This writing is alsome it shows how a kid could be great by just a little practice evry day. Hey you know what the say practice makes proggess.

Funny Face is my first Nars lipstick, and defintely won't be the last! The colour is gorgeous, blueish fuxia, and the formula is non-drying as promides, as a matter of fact is so light that you don't feel like you are wearing a lipstick!
At last, I've found the perfect dark red. Nars Fire Down Below is exactly the same colour in the bullet as it is on the lips and it smells lovely too! Highly recommended for those who are wanting burgundy or garnet lips with no blue or pink pigmentation.
Always steered clear of matte lipsticks as thought would be drying but not nars. Weightless and lasts around 7 hours. Joyous red only available here or direct from nars. Fab colouring for my mac nc20 skintone, very wearable red. Will try jungle red next as great formulation.
This Nars Semi-Matte Lipstick is a beautiful colour that's long lasting. Easy to apply and moisturising.Gorgeous.
Great lipstick and an awesome colour for easily going from day to night. Definitely a winner
this is really amazing lipstick that i ever have so far... I bought schiap, was waiting for really long to get it as it sold out so quick all the time, the texture is really smooth and color is beautiful! make your skin brighter too... Highly recommended this!!!
Such a pretty orangey-red. Looks good on yellow asian skin. A little dry but most matte lipsticks are. But from matte lipsticks point of view though, the most moisturising. Not as orangey as I would like. Eyeing Nars Red Square for that. From orange-red lipstick point of view, this has a little more blue.
Love this product! Amazing colour.
It's a silky lipstick, the colour is the perfect classic red and it lasts for a long time. A must have.
I really love the texture and the staying power of this Nars Semi-Matte Lipstick. I got it in Schiap, which is bold fuschia colour. It's not completely matte and it doesn't dry out at all. It also didn't transfer as much as my other long lasting lipstick like Mac. Looking forward to repurchasing them in other shades. Fully recommended.
I really like the colour, it is beautiful and goes well with my lips. I normally avoid beige colour lipsticks but this is a pretty pink beige that does not make my face look pale. It does not give me cracking line when my lips are little dry. Love it, I will buy this again!
I have this Nars Semi-Matte Lipstick in "Cruising", which is a perfect hybrid of nude/MLBB. The formula is amazing; the lipstick feels comfortable on the lips, it's just enough pigment and opaque, it is easy to apply, looks good and the lasting power is impressing. Will purchase again!
I'm a collector of NARS red lipstick but I've never dared to get an orange-based one. I changed my mind after seeing Nars Semi-Matte Lipstick in Heat Wave which looked so beautiful and vibrant. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Heat Wave is such a great and energetic colour! It's very long-lasting, even if a bit on the drying side. It beautifully compliments my light olive complexion and it's perfect if paired with neutral eyes or eyeliner rimmed eyes.
The color I bought was "Funny Face", a beautiful fuchsia. It has exceptional durability, and semi matte texture gives incredible results. I am very happy. The color in pictures online I found very striking, since it is very flattering. I recommend it 100%.
Love the colour and finish... It looks a bit scary in tube, but is fabulous on. Just make sure you use lip liner with this!
The colour Heat Wave is less orange than I expected, but everything else about it is so perfect that it can easily be forgiven. You have not tried lipstick until you have tried Nars. This is as good as it gets. I am completely done with Mac and whatever I may have used in the past. Nars only for me from this moment on, please.
The colour is AMAZING! I would not normally have chosen such a strong colour as I am normally a mid-pale skin tone with blue-grey-green eyes and dark blonde hair, usually wearing subtle pink tones. Amazingly, the colour suits me down to the ground and I look very sophisticated! It looks great with a full face of makeup or minimal. The only downside is that if you have any dry or flaky lip skin at all it highlights the dryness and it doesn't mix well with chap stick or balm, so make sure when you wear it your lips are hydrated and smooth. All in all, if you're willing to spend the money it's a good 'special occasion' lipstick.
Very nice product, nice texture & great colour.
The best lipsticks that you can find actually, excellent texture, colors, variety and specially the strong and high pigments in them producing a really excellent quality products.
This Nars Semi-Matte Lipstick is a great lipstick. I have been struggling for a while to find a nice lipstick, and I have finally found it. I apply once in a morning and it lasts for several hours, which is what I wanted. I highly recommend.
I have the shade Catfight and all I can say is that the color and formula are incredibly nice. This is a semi-matte lipstick therefore it dries lips a lot, but I always put a layer of balm on my lips and apply the lipstick next. I still get the same semi-matte effect but my lips don't feel so dry. The longevity of this lipstick is incredible: it lasts for hours and it doesn't leave marks when I kiss my boyfriend
Estoy encantada con el labial semi-mate cruising. Es como me lo esperaba tanto en pigmentación como en el color. Estaba buscando un color labios y con este lo he conseguido. La entrega ha sido perfecta. Muchas gracias.
I have Transeurope Express and Catfight... and I'm dying to have more! They're highly pigmented, blend in smoothly and will last for hours. I only use NARS lipsticks from now on, they are the best ones I've ever tried!
The Nars Lipsticks offer a lot of colours and a lot of finish. I have Catfight a cold rosewood, very delicate...a colour that I never saw before !

AN intricate renovation and restoration project by Visioneer Builders has taken out the HIA Victorian Home of the Year for 2012.
The Art Deco Middle Park home wowed judges at the HIA-CSR Victorian Housing and Kitchen & Bathroom Awards for its use of steel, timber and stone and quality of workmanship.
Visioneer Builders director Venise Reilly said the project had been "very complex and challenging".
"The building itself was quite old - it originally started as two Victorian cottages and was turned into apartments in the 1920s. That's what created the look of the windows," Ms Reilly said.
"It was then turned into three apartments and the current owners wanted to change it to one home."
Ms Reilly said the positive working relationship between herself, fellow director Michael Schuurmans, the architect, interior designer and cabinet maker on the project, as well as the rest of the team, had helped create such an outstanding home.
She encouraged more women to take an active role in building.
Visioneer Builders received three accolades for the Middle Park home - Home of the Year, Overall Renovation/Addition Project of the Year, and Renovation/Addition Project over $1 million.
The team also won Custom Built Home more than $2 million for a Hawthorn home build.
HIA Victoria executive director Gil King said it was "wonderful" to see the high standard of entrants "in a year where building activity in Victoria has come off the boil".
"Victorian builders are first class in the design, workmanship and quality of new homes and renovations," Mr King said.
"In an environment of uncertainty about the economic and regulatory future, our builders and designers have put these difficulties behind them and forged ahead with outstanding concepts, designs, construction and finishings."
Other winners were R & R Quality Homes for Overall Custom Built Home of the Year, Englehart Homes for Overall Display Home of the Year, Canny Pty Ltd for Overall Project Home of the Year, Individual Design & Construction for Overall Kitchen Project of the Year and Royston Wilson Design for Bathroom Design of the Year.

Quick Index Board Index Home FAQ Site Map
Does Isabella have feelings for Captain Tilney? She dances with him in Ch. 16 and disparages it to Catherine but obviously enjoyed the attention: "My spirits are quite jaded with listening to his nonsense: and then, being such a smart young fellow, I saw every eye was upon us." In Ch. 18 Isabella is obviously looking for Captain Tilney in the Pump-room where he treats her with the same sort of intimate flattering banter that she showers on everyone else:
Catherine, looking up, perceived Captain Tilney; and Isabella, earnestly fixing her eye on him as she spoke, soon caught his notice. He approached immediately, and took the seat to which her movements invited him. His first address made Catherine start. Though spoken low, she could distinguish, "What! Always to be watched, in person or by proxy!" (Ch. 18)
Twice Isabella tells Catherine what Captain Tilney has told her and I don't remember her parroting James in the same manner. First in Ch. 18: "I am amazingly absent; I believe I am the most absent creature in the world. Tilney says it is always the case with minds of a certain stamp." His assertion minds of a certain stamp are always amazingly absent seem to me to be an insult but Isabella does not recognize it. Second, after assuring Catherine she would not wish to hurry her into an engagement with John:
Take my word for it, that if you are in too great a hurry, you will certainly live to repent it. Tilney says there is nothing people are so often deceived in as the state of their own affections, and I believe he is very right. Ah! Here he comes; never mind, he will not see us, I am sure." (Ch. 18)
I have never been convinced Isabella has any real feelings for James but it seems she might be regretting her engagement. I am suspicious that she does have regard for Captain Tilney. If Henry is correct his brother has no honorable designs on Isabella, "The mess–room will drink Isabella Thorpe for a fortnight" but does she understand it? Is Isabella being taken in as she took in James?
Thanks for reading. (;D)

We are Helpers of People!
FDLIC is characterized by people who really care. Our people want to be servants to one another, to our funeral home customers, to our sales managers and sales professionals, to our policyholders, and to our community. Many participate in volunteer activities such as Meals on Wheels, and by fundraising for the American Heart Association, the Alzheimer's Association, and the American Cancer Society among others. Many of those who lead others in these volunteer activities are driven by a personal connection to the non-profit organization, giving their time, money, and tireless efforts to seeing these organizations thrive. We believe that by continuing to place an emphasis on service not only within our work environment, but in our activities outside of work, we will have an even greater opportunity to give back to our communities and promote positive change in people's lives.
Thank you so much for your support of our work here at Colette's Children's Home and for the matching grant given through the "Helpers of People" Charitable Contributions Match Program in conjunction with Heritage Memorial Funeral Home. These funds mean so much to the women and children residing in our shelters. I am pleased to share that in 2009, Colette's Children's Home has taken over 400 women and children off the streets and given them shelter and the support they need to get their lives back together again. Thank you again for thinking of us, and have a happy, prosperous new year.
William O'Connell
Executive Director, Colette's Children's Home
American Heart Association
Throughout the year, FDLIC employees conduct fundraisers to raise support and awareness for the American Heart Association. Heart disease is still one of the leading causes of death in the U.S., and as such, is a very important and personal cause for many of our employees. Every year, FDLIC volunteers participate in the local "Heart Walk," which is the AHA's largest recurring fundraising event.
American Cancer Society
FDLIC is also involved in raising money and support for the American Cancer Society. Money is raised through payroll deductions, which FDLIC matches as a Company. Also, raffles and donations contribute to fundraising efforts. The funds go toward the 24-hour "Relay for Life."
Alzheimer's Association
Alzheimer's disease is another cause that is close to our hearts as a Company. Many of our employees have seen the devastating effects of this disease on family members and friends. As a Company, we participate in raising funds for the "Memory Walk," held every year.
Meals on Wheels
FDLIC volunteers also participate in our local Meals on Wheels program, delivering hundreds of hot meals to the ill and elderly every year. For many employees, delivering these meals is a moving experience. Many of the people who receive meals are home-bound or suffering illness, and the program allows them in some cases to remain in their homes instead of having to go to a hospital or long-term care facility.
Pregnancy Resources of Abilene
Every summer, FDLIC collects donations of baby clothes, diapers, toys, and blankets for a special baby shower in honor of Pregnancy Resources of Abilene. Pregnancy Resources is a local non-profit organization that offers free pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, counseling services, and material support to young mothers. The organization is dedicated to providing a support network for pregnant young women who are facing difficult situations and are in need of health services or just someone to talk to.
Hearts of Hope Grief Camps
For the last several years, FDLIC has been involved in supporting and volunteering at grief camps for children in Minnesota. The camps are provided as a free service to grieving children, giving them a place to meet others who have lost a close loved one. The children participate in activities of memorialization and play that allow them to express their feelings and comfort one another. At the camps, they learn that they are not alone, and many times this makes it easier to begin to talk about and understand their loss. Every year, FDLIC sends volunteers loaded down with teddy bears for the children attending the camp.
The Abilene Youth Sports Authority
The AYSA is a local non-profit organization that FDLIC founded. The AYSA is an organization that promotes organized youth sports activities in our community. AYSA helps with registration fees, provides information about upcoming events, and acts as a streamlined central clearinghouse for youth league and tournament information. The mission of the AYSA is to promote family-based principles and the highest ideals of teamwork, sportsmanship, honesty, trust, and respect for authority with the specific purpose of influencing kids and adults to become better individuals.
Helpers of People Charitable Contributions Match Program
Our Helpers of People program also gives our client funeral homes the chance to make a difference in their own communities. The Helpers of People Charitable Contributions Match Program allows funeral homes to double their charitable contributions to non-profit organizations that are notably "helpers of people." In this way, funeral homes are able to assist charitable organizations in their own communities.

An intramolecular SH3-domain interaction regulates c-Abl activity.
The ABL1 proto-oncogene encodes a cytoplasmic and nuclear protein tyrosine kinase (c-Abl) that has been implicated in processes of cell differentiation, cell division, cell adhesion and stress response. Alterations of ABL1 by chromosomal rearrangement or viral transduction can lead to malignant transformation. Activity of the c-Abl protein is negatively regulated by its SH3 domain through an unknown mechanism, and deletion of the SH3 domain turns ABL1 into an oncogene. We present evidence for an intramolecular inhibitory interaction of the SH3 domain with the catalytic domain and with the linker between the SH2 and catalytic domain (SH2-CD linker). Site-directed mutations in each of these three elements activate c-Abl. Mutations in the linker cause a conformational change of the molecule and increase binding of the SH3 domain to peptide ligands. Individual mutation of two charged residues in the SH3 and catalytic domain activates c-Abl, while inhibition is restored in the double reciprocal mutant. We propose that regulators of c-Abl will have opposite effects on its activity depending on their ability to favour or disrupt these intramolecular interactions.[1]References

This article explains types of check valves used on hot water heating systems. Here we explain heating boiler check valves, also referred to as flow control valves, flo-control valves: controls that prevent hot water from circulating in the heating system when it is not supposed-to. We also discuss IFC circulators - internal flow control circulators, and heating system backflow preventer valves. This article series answers most questions about Heating System Boiler Controls on central heating systems to aid in troubleshooting, inspection, diagnosis, and repairs. If you are looking for information on water supply piping & well system check valves see WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM CHECK VALVES. Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2013 InspectAPedia.com, All Rights Reserved. Check Valves on Hot Water Hydronic Heating Systems - Flow Control, Flo-Control Valves, Inspection, Settings, ProblemsThe photo above shows a modern cad cell relay on an oil fired heating boiler - one of the safety controls which we discuss in this article. Because on some hot water heating systems the check valve or flow-control valve is integrated into the circulator pump assembly, also see Circulator Pumps & Relays. For an example of how the check valve or flo-control valve functions on hot water heating systems, and what goes wrong, also see Heat Won't Turn Off - Stop Unwanted Heat. Contact us to suggest text changes and additions and, if you wish, to receive online listing and credit for that contribution. Check valves on heating boilers prevent hot water from circulating through the building when it is not supposed to be doing so - such as when the boiler and its water are still hot but the thermostat has stopped calling for heat. Why Are the Baseboards or Radiators Hot Even Though the Thermostat is Set Lower than Room Temperature? Un-wanted Gravity or Convection Circulation of Hot WaterIf electrical power switch to a hot water heating boiler is in the on position (see ELECTRICAL POWER SWITCH FOR HEAT) and the room thermostat is set below the current room temperature, the heating system (hot water or steam) boiler or (warm air) furnace should not run.[1] But for hot water heating systems (baseboards, radiators), other defects could cause or permit hot water to circulate through the heating system by "gravity" (convection, warm water rising on its own through the heating piping) even though the thermostat is not calling for heat. [Warm water is less dense than cold water and will rise up through cooler water, displacing it and sending cooler water down to the boiler.] The problem, if this is occurring, is usually that a check valve (photo above-left) (found internal to some circulator pumps, or external as a physical device) intended to prevent hot water from circulating on its own - when the circulator pump is off - is either set to a "forced open" position, or it has become defective (less likely). If that's the problem (diagnosed by a heating and service technician) then the valve or circulator needs to be replaced. While waiting for that repair to be made, you can still turn off the heat when it is not needed, by turning off electrical power to the boiler. With the heating boiler switched off it will cool down and water will stop heating the radiators by gravity or convection circulation. The red Bell & Gossett B&G flo-control valves shown in our photo above and in the sketch at left are designed to prevent hot water from circulating in a heating system unless the circulator pump is also running. The valve provides a vertical-lift check valve function: until the circulator pump begins to run, the valve will prevent hot water from circulating through the piping system. The B&G installation sketch (left, edited) shows a simplified but typical location of a flo-control valve - the red device at the right-most side of the sketch. Which way do we turn the lever on a flo-control valve?The lever on the top of the B&B flow control valves shown here allows the user or service technician to force the valve to an "open" position, overriding the valve's automatic internal operation. It's important that these B&G flo-controls are properly installed: the stem with the little lever needs to be upright. This flo-control valve is installed only in a vertical position, either at the top of a vertical pipe (where heat piping changes direction from vertical to horizontal) or in a horizontal heating pipe, but with the valve in an upright position. And the valve has to be installed with its flow-arrow pointing in the correct direction - in the direction off flow of heating water. The valve handle is turned fully clockwise to prevent hot water circulation other than when the circulator is running. This is the normal setting for this control. When would we turn the lever counter-clockwise? We can think of several instances:
Watch out: B&G warns users to remember to return the lever to the "closed" (fully clockwise) position after the emergency or service. Otherwise you'll get un-wanted hot water heat circulation by gravity even if the room circulator is not calling for heat. Also, these valves sometimes leak around the packing nut below the flo-control valve lever. The valve instruction and service manual describes how to remove, clean, and repair the valve without disassembling system piping. At References we provide a link to an excellent resource to understand these flow control valves: the B&G Flo-Control Valves - installation, operation, and service instructions manual from Bell and Gossett - an ITT company. B&G Hydrotrol™ Check ValvesBell & Gossett (and other manufacturers) also provide a separate Hydrotrol™ valve to prevent hot water from circulating in a building by gravity when the room thermostat is not calling for heat. This brass valve includes a knob that permits bypassing this check valve with a simple half-turn, achieving the same emergency heat or service functions we described above. The Hydrotrol HT flow control valve - a specialty check valve e is used to prevent hot water from circulating through a building where the boiler is kept on to provide domestic hot water via a tankless coil or indirect water heater, during non-heating-season months. It is also installed to prevent overheating of individual heating zones by gravity. But unlike the red B&G Flo-Control valves discussed above, the Hydrotrol flo-control valve can be installed both vertically and horizontally in heating piping. Internal Flow Control Valves - IFC Valves on Heating Circulator PumpsCheck valves may be present on a hot water heating system (hydronic heating) but may be less easy to spot. IFC valves or "internal flow control" check valves are built right into the circulator pump of some models, including some circulators made by Taco® such as the Taco nnn-IFC® (nnn=model number and IFC = internal flow control) circulator pumps. Taco's product literature comments on the benefits of an IFC type circulator pump: Backflow Preventer Valves on Heating System Piping - A Different Check ValveHeating System Backflow Preventer Valves Protect Public Water Mains / Private Water Piping from Heating System Water ContaminantsBecause a building potable water supply piping cold water line is used to deliver water to hydronic or steam heating boilers, we need to prevent heating system water from back-contaminating the building water supply piping. At a hot water heating system a heating system backflow preventer check valve is used to keep hot, high pressure water in the hydronic heating system from flowing backwards through a boiler water feed line into the building water supply - a sanitation concern. On both hot water (hydronic) and steam heating systems the backflow preventer may be built into the automatic water feed valve (photo at left, also see BACKFLOW PREVENTER, HEATER WATER FEEDER). At our heater backflow photo (above left) the automatic water feed valve (red arrow) includes a built-in backflow prevention device. Depending on local plumbing codes, a separate (from the water feeder valve) dedicated backflow preventer valve may also be installed "upstream" of the automatic water feeder - that is, between the heating system water feed valve and the incoming municipal water supply cold water piping (green arrow). A closeup of the separate heating backflow preventer is shown in a second photograph below. These are two separate devices for heating system water backflow prevention, but often you will see both of them installed. The blue arrow in our photograph shows the direction of water flow into the water feeder and onwards into the heating boiler. In sum, backflow preventers found on heating systems are installed to prevent higher-pressure heating system water from being forced backwards (say through a water feeder valve) into the building potable water supply piping. Details about automatic water feeders are at WATER FEEDER Valves, Hydronic and WATER FEEDER Valves, Steam. Water Feeder Valves on Hot Water and Steam Heating Systems - as check valvesOn older hydronic or steam heating boilers the expansion tank and water feeder valve are separate physical units (photo at left). This automatic pressure-reducing water feeder combines a check valve and boiler water feeder. Like the separate backflow preventer described just above, the check-valve function, internal to the automatic water feeder device, prevents back-flow of heating system water into the building water supply piping. This bell-shaped device opens and sends makeup water into the heating boiler and its piping whenever the heating system's internal water pressure falls below a normal level. The feed-pressure i s typically factor-set to 12 psi when the boiler is cold, but adjustable where higher starting water pressure is needed for taller buildings. Systems without an automatic water feeder are less safe and risk serious boiler damage should boiler water be lost and should there be no low water cutoff installed on the system. See WATER FEEDER VALVES for details about water feed valves for hydronic boilers. Steam boiler automatic water feed valves are discussed at WATER FEEDER Valves, Steam While going through the detailed sequence in the operation of the heating boiler, watch for and inspect the condition of the heating boiler controls and safety devices (as required by ASHI 9.1.A.3 automatic safety controls).

Crack hurdler Oscar Whisky was due to run at Cheltenham on Tuesday
PICTURE: Edward Whitaker (racingpost.com/photos)Cheltenham cancels Tuesday meeting
TUESDAY'S meeting at Cheltenham, due to feature Oscar Whisky and herald the start of Channel 4's new racing coverage, has been abandoned.
Heavy rain left the track unraceable and officials, who planned to inspect at 3pm on Monday, took an early decision to cancel.
Channel 4, whose content will now be produced by IMG rather than Highflyer, will broadcast four races from Musselburgh with new lead presenter Clare Balding hosting a live link-up from trainer Nicky Henderson's yard.
"We've had further rain overnight and it's raining now," said clerk of the course Simon Claisse just after 9am.
"More rain is forecast so very sadly we've taken this decision. The course is waterlogged in too many places."
Oscar Whisky's Henderson-trained stablemate Captain Conan was entered in the Grade 2 novice chase on Cheltenham's card and Claisse raised the possibility of moving that to another fixture.
Speaking on At The Races, he added: "We've discussed it with the BHA and it might have a home somewhere else. We'll have more discussions today."
Tuesday's meeting was the first Cheltenham has abandoned since December 2008.


text: Ron Bowen, who works for the AT&T marketing group, especially enjoys the one-on-one contact the show provides. He said he and his co-workers enjoy taking part because it gives them "a chance to get out of the office" and meet people. Since AT&T has a strong foothold in the communications market, Bowen said, their purpose in coming to the expo is not to sell but to find out how they can improve customer service. Bowen said an added bonus of the expo is that, unlike some trade shows, it is free, attracting a large number of older people who otherwise might not be able to come.

Cards for Causes Donates 110,000 meals to help America's Hunger Problem
We were recently contacted by Feeding America to let us know that our donations to date had provided over 110,000 meals to people who need help. In reviewing all of the hunger related charities that we have donated to, we discovered that the number of meals we have provided is over 200,000, thanks to our customer's orders. We are thrilled that we have been able to help so significantly and we look forward to making more donations to hunger related as well as the other charities in our database. Our goal continues to be donations of $1,000,000 or more to charities nationwide.

CookStar Pro Portable Induction Burner (PROX61) |
$294.99 |
Add to Basket
This is the most awesome portable "burner" we've even seen. It's a magnetic induction burner, made in Germany by Fissler, and it's the perfect marriage of form and function. The sleek black exterior is a smooth, frameless, glass-ceramic surface made by the famed Schott glassworks. No seams, switches or buttons mar the easy-to-clean, wipe-it-off surface. Inside is a 1500-watt motor, with a whisper-quiet fan, that can boil water in less than a minute, with minimal energy consumption. Touch-sensitive controls include a boost function for 20 seconds of full power, simple up-and-down arrows for heat levels, and a keep-warm setting. The CookStar Induction Pro easily handles everything from grilling kebabs at the table to keeping food warm for a buffet; all you need is a place to plug it in and a ferrous-metal pan for the food. Stainless-steel, multi-layer clad stainless-steel, and cast-iron will all work beautifully. Aluminum will not. Since the induction process heats only the pan, the CookStar Induction Pro will barely get warm to the touch, a great safety feature at a buffet. Additional safeguards includes a 2-hour automatic shut-off, pan detection, and over-heating protection. The Cookstar Induction Pro, thanks to its compact dimensions, even fits neatly on a shelf, to store with your cookbooks if you wish. 3-year warranty. 14.4" x 11.1" x 2.9".

810. The Revenge of Hamish
Sidney Lanier
was three slim does and a ten-tined buck in the bracken lay;
And all of a sudden the sinister smell of a man,
Awaft on a wind-shift, wavered and ran
Down the hillside and sifted along through the bracken and passed that way.
Then Nan got a-tremble at nostril; she was the daintiest doe;
In the print of her velvet flank on the velvet fern
She reared, and rounded her ears in turn.
Then the buck leapt up, and his head as a kings to a crown did go
Full high in the breeze, and he stood as if Death had the form of a deer;
And the two slim does long lazily stretching arose,
For their day-dream slowlier came to a close,
Till they woke and were still, breath-bound with waiting and wonder and fear.
Then Alan the huntsman sprang over the hillock, the hounds shot by,
The does and the ten-tined buck made a marvellous bound,
The hounds swept after with never a sound,
But Alan loud winded his horn in sign that the quarry was nigh.
For at dawn of that day proud Maclean of Lochbuy to the hunt had waxed wild,
And he cursed at old Alan till Alan fared off with the hounds
For to drive him the deer to the lower glen-grounds:
I will kill a red deer, quoth Maclean, in the sight of the wife and the child.
So gayly he paced with the wife and the child to his chosen stand;
But he hurried tall Hamish the henchman ahead: Go turn,
Cried Maclean,if the deer seek to cross to the burn,
Do thou turn them to me: nor fail, lest thy back be red as thy hand.
Now hard-fortuned Hamish, half blown of his breath with the height of the hill,
Was white in the face when the ten-tined buck and the does
Drew leaping to burn-ward; huskily rose
His shouts, and his nether lip twitched, and his legs were oer-weak for his will.
So the deer darted lightly by Hamish and bounded away to the burn.
But Maclean never bating his watch tarried waiting below;
Still Hamish hung heavy with fear for to go
All the space of an hour, then he went, and his face was greenish and stern,
And his eye sat back in the socket, and shrunken the eyeballs shone,
As withdrawn from a vision of deeds it were shame to see.
Now, now, grim henchman, what ist with thee?
Brake Maclean, and his wrath rose red as a beacon the wind hath upblown.
Three does and a ten-tined buck made out, spoke Hamish, full mild,
And I ran for to turn, but my breath it was blown, and they passed;
I was weak, for ye called ere I broke me my fast.
Cried Maclean: Now a ten-tined buck in the sight of the wife and the child
I had killed if the gluttonous kern had not wrought me a snails own wrong!
Then he sounded, and down came kinsmen and clansmen all:
Ten blows, for ten tine, on his back let fall,
And reckon no stroke if the blood follow not at the bite of thong!
So Hamish made bare, and took him his strokes; at the last he smiled.
Now Ill to the burn, quoth Maclean, for it still may be,
If a slimmer-paunched henchman will hurry with me,
I shall kill me the ten-tined buck for a gift to the wife and the child!
Then the clansmen departed, by this path and that; and over the hill
Sped Maclean with an outward wrath for an inward shame;
And that place of the lashing full quiet became;
And the wife and the child stood sad; and bloody-backed Hamish sat still.
But look! red Hamish has risen; quick about and about turns he.
There is none betwixt me and the crag-top! he screams under breath.
Then, livid as Lazarus lately from death,
He snatches the child from the mother, and clambers the crag toward the sea.
Now the mother drops breath; she is dumb, and her heart goes dead for a space,
Till the motherhood, mistress of death, shrieks, shrieks through the glen,
And that place of the lashing is live with men,
And Maclean, and the gillie that told him, dash up in a desperate race.
Not a breaths time for asking; an eye-glance reveals all the tale untold.
They follow mad Hamish afar up the crag toward the sea,
And the lady cries: Clansmen, run for a fee!
You castle and lands to the two first hands that shall hook him and hold
Fast Hamish back from the brink!and ever she flies up the steep,
And the clansmen pant, and they sweat, and they jostle and strain.
But, mother, tis vain; but, father, tis vain;
Stern Hamish stands bold on the brink, and dangles the child oer the deep.
Now a faintness falls on the men that run, and they all stand still.
And the wife prays Hamish as if he were God, on her knees,
Crying: Hamish! O Hamish! but please, but please
For to spare him! and Hamish still dangles the child, with a wavering will.
On a sudden he turns; with a sea-hawk scream, and a gibe, and a song,
Cries: So; I will spare ye the child if, in sight of ye all,
Ten blows on Macleans bare back shall fall,
And ye reckon no stroke if the blood follow not at the bite of the thong!
Then Maclean he set hardly his tooth to his lip that his tooth was red,
Breathed short for a space, said: Nay, but it never shall be!
Let me hurl off the damnable hound in the sea!
But the wife: Can Hamish go fish us the child from the sea, if dead?
Say yea!Let them lash
Hamish?Nay!Husband, the lashing will heal;
But, oh, who will heal me the bonny sweet bairn in his grave?
Could ye cure me my heart with the death of a knave?
Quick! Love! I will bare theesokneel! Then Maclean gan slowly to kneel
With never a word, till presently downward he jerked to the earth.
Then the henchmanhe that smote Hamishwould tremble and lag;
Strike, hard! quoth Hamish, full stern, from the crag;
Then he struck him, and One! sang Hamish, and danced with the child in his mirth.
And no man spake beside Hamish; he counted each stroke with a song.
When the last stroke fell, then he moved him a pace down the height,
And he held forth the child in the heart-aching sight
Of the mother, and looked all pitiful grave, as repenting a wrong.
And there as the motherly arms stretched out with the thanksgiving prayer
And there as the mother crept up with a fearful swift pace,
Till her finger nigh felt of the bairnies face
In a flash fierce Hamish turned round and lifted the child in the air,
And sprang with the child in his arms from the horrible height in the sea,
Shrill screeching, Revenge! in the wind-rush; and pallid Maclean,
Age-feeble with anger and impotent pain,
Crawled up on the crag, and lay flat, and locked hold of dead roots of a tree,
And gazed hungrily oer, and the blood from his back drip-dripped in the brine,
And a sea-hawk flung down a skeleton fish as he flew,
And the mother stared white on the waste of blue,
And the wind drove a cloud to seaward, and the sun began to shine.

December 13, 2013
NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- Smiling, even laughing, at questions about a report linking him to a company that purports to make performance-enhancers, Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis says he "never, ever took" the stuff.
Lewis also says he's "agitated," not angry, that the story has become part of the Super Bowl-week prelude to Baltimore's game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
He said Wednesday that he's certain his teammates won't be distracted by the report in Sports Illustrated. The magazine said Lewis sought help from a company that says its deer-antler spray and pills contain a banned product connected to human growth hormone. Lewis is the leading tackler in the NFL postseason after returning from a torn right triceps that sidelined him for 10 games.

This item is for those who wish to have any of the jilbabs, abayas, skirts etc, made with different measurements than what is listed on the website. For example, do you need longer sleeves or longer length? There is a $5.00 charge for each garment
(For example, if you need longer length $5.00 each garment, if you need longer sleeves and longer length, $5.00 for each garment.)
Posted by Umm Abdullah on 19th Feb 2013
Hamdulilah the sister J. knew just what i needed...where to add an inch or two, where to take away an inch or two...she was so quick and attentive and i have never bought a garment that was so suitably tailored subhan Allah! And she did all of that long distance! I am a customer for sure...inshaa Allah i will be back many more times!
Posted by umm abdul-alim naimah on 20th Dec 2012
The alterations were done with excellent expertise. No complaints whatsoever
Posted by Jamie on 21st May 2012
I ordered the special measurements to get my abaya made a little longer and with longer sleeves. Since I'm taller than average this helps me get the coverage from my abaya that I really want.

Crapo, Simpson haven't solved fiscal problems
I was intrigued reading the guest column authored by Sen. Crapo and Rep. Simpson. I am curious. Is there any particular reason both of them have failed to realize that these problems have been in existence at least as long as they both have been serving us in Washington? And they have done what?
As long as our congressional representatives require big donations to fund their campaigns and assure their political careers, nothing will be done.
If either Crapo or Simpson had the intestinal fortitude to propose legislation to cut all subsidies and all tax loopholes to all individuals and corporations, perhaps it would start a chain reaction. A flat tax to all individuals and corporations would have us all contribute our fair share to government programs.
Idahoans have had opportunities to boot both Crapo and Simpson down the road several times. Unfortunately, the majority opted to maintain the status quo. Sadly, nothing changes.
SKIP DAVIS, Weiser
Sequester might be the only solution
In President Obama's speech several weeks ago, he in essence said, "Now is not the time to cut government spending. It will put our fragile economy at risk." If not now, when the government is bleeding red ink at the rate of trillions of dollars, when? Government never shrinks when the economy is good; it grows like cancer.
The looming sequester, while a very blunt instrument, may be the only way we ever get a decrease in government spending. Our legislators, on both sides of the aisle, through many administrations, have shown us very clearly that they don't have the guts to make the necessary cuts - they are too worried about being re-elected. They are so far from reality, we no longer even debate that the government should not run a deficit. We debate how much of a deficit is acceptable.
Our political system is disgustingly dysfunctional. Most of our lawmakers and the presidency were engaged in raising money for their own re-election or for their respective parties for the last 12 to 18 months. Is it any wonder nothing is being accomplished?
LAYNE CREA, Meridian
Senators overlook personal waste
Response to "Senate even losing money on haircuts," by Lynn Hulsey on Feb. 18: If the Senate were serious about paring government expenditures given today's pressing need for fiscal austerity, one would hope their attention would first turn to leading by example. Why should taxpayers subsidize the Senate Hair Care shop to the tune of $340,000 annually? Isn't a yearly salary of $174,000 sufficient to pay for a senator's own haircut? Where does the largesse end?
I am enraged that our elected representatives conveniently overlook their personal wastefulness perpetrated by their elitism. Would that the Senate turn a critical eye on its own superfluity and lack of statesmanship to pare Senate "entitlements" as it contemplates cuts to my upcoming and meager Social Security benefits for which I personally paid! Build my faith by getting in the game, senators.
GAYLE R. EATON, Boise
Obama runs up debt, then blames the GOP
Even the far-left blog "Daily Beast" admits that sequestration was Obama's idea and there is no question that after it was passed Obama was pleased - in November, 2011, he threatened to veto any efforts to avoid his sequester, which he is now flying around the nation like Chicken Little (or is it Pinocchio?) screaming "The sky is falling, the sky is falling!" and blaming Republicans.
To put the amount of the sequestration cuts into perspective, it is around $85 billion of a $3.7 trillion budget - a cut of only around 2.7 percent! Working Americans had more than that cut from their pay in January when payroll taxes were partially re-implemented.
To give you an idea of the scale of the sequestration cuts compared to the total budget, we will be running a deficit of around 45 percent of the total budget - that's a deficit of over $1.6 trillion, or nearly $4.4 billion deeper into debt every day. Simply put, the sequestration cut of $85 billion will pay for less than 20 days of the obscene deficit this president is running up, and has run up, every year he's been in office!
KENNETH HUSTON, Garden City
Obama, Democrats manufacture crisis
As a federal civil service retiree, I have been a political pawn for several administrations, mostly Democrat. Government shutdowns, furloughs, reduction in force, etc. In reality, nothing really happened, and no disasters occurred. This "Sequestration Crisis" is being manufactured by Obama and his Democrat demagogues to frighten people into accepting more deficit spending.
Now that it seems it may happen, Obama is actively decrying his own plan, and demagogues like Luckovich are doing their best to try to get folks to blame the Republicans. Yet which house passed two budgets during Obama's regime? The Republican-controlled House of Representatives. And which house refused to pass them? The Democrat-controlled Senate.
Obama told us that first responders will be out of a job, ignoring the fact that they are not paid by the federal government. It's just another of his unending emotional appeals. No air traffic controllers, no meat inspections, no teachers, ad nauseum. Enough with this panic pandering. Democrats always propose cuts to essential services but none of the fat. We can reduce spending without affecting essential services.
It's your plan, Obama. Why are you fighting so hard to convince the people otherwise?
SCOTT A. JONES, Council
Spending cuts were the president's idea
Obama is doing an about-face on the automatic spending cuts otherwise known as the sequester. It was his idea to raise taxes and cut spending.
Now that the taxes are going up, he's changing his mind about cutting the spending. He's using scare tactics once again to delude the masses into thinking we can't do without the government's vast bureaucracies. No day care, great job losses, blah, blah, blah. Why is he spending us into oblivion - $6 trillion more in one term. Unbelievable! He's had two vacations so far this year. Is there no end to this man's audacity. He's our president, not our king!
It's time to tighten the belt, Congress. It's the only way America will wake up to the craziness going on in the White House. Call your congressman, let the cuts begin!
RENE MCSHERRY, Boise
Nation's defense at risk
It is important for members of Congress to know that they are risking our national security by failing to address the fiscal needs of our defense forces.
The Army's chief of staff, Gen. Ray Odierno, spoke at the Association of the United States Army's (AUSA) January Institute of Land Warfare breakfast in Washington, D.C., and his message was clear: "Our national security is at risk because of the fiscal uncertainty that we face today."
The numbers are sobering - a $6 billion shortfall for FY13 in Army operation and maintenance accounts because Congress has failed to pass appropriations legislation and the Army must spend at the FY12 budget levels. If sequestration triggers on March 1, another $6 billion shortfall will occur. Combined with other underfunding, the total shortfall for FY13 could be $17 billion - in wartime!
AUSA has been urging Congress to solve the sequestration puzzle quickly and we continue to highlight the significant dangers posed by sequestration and the repeated use of continuing resolutions to fund the Department of Defense.
The fiscal process must be put back in order so that our defense forces can maintain their readiness and their ability to defend this nation.
MARSHALL O. TOWNSEND II, Gem State Chapter President, AUSA, Meridian
Governor, commission open door for waste
Butch and the boys want to do it to us again. In case you blinked, the governor proposes to preserve and create jobs at INL by accepting even more nuclear waste at the Arco site.
Environmentally, the site is already a disaster. Hazardous waste (chemical and nuclear) has been dumped into the aquifer (drinking water for 300,000 people). On-site workers have developed any number of diseases attributable to radiation exposure, cancer in particular.
The governor's LINE Commission supposedly solicited input from a number of different scientific disciplines. However, members of the U.S. Geological Survey and the Idaho Geological Survey are conspicuous by their absence. Turning Arco into a nuclear repository without credible scientific input is a nonstarter - jobs or no jobs. The geologists were ignored at Teton Dam. Are they even being consulted this time around?
Idaho is one of the most seismically active states in the Lower 48 and the reactor site sits within a few miles of four fault lines associated with the Lost River Range. Also, the site is on top of the Snake River Aquifer. What could possibly go wrong? Remember the Mt. Borah earthquake of 1983? Can you count to magnitude 7.3?
JOHN ULINDER, Boise
Give back extra money to Idaho's taxpayers
Did you know that Idaho has one of the highest levels of state income tax (Ranks 12 out of 50)? Did you know that Idaho is one of the lowest in the nation on a per capita income (ranks 48 out of 50 in per capita income). Both of the Idaho tax pendulums are moving in the opposing direction - high state income tax and low per-capita income. To correct this unbalanced approach, state income tax rates should be lowered and emulate closer to the per-capita income levels. That would be closer to a balanced approach of income levels to the state income tax rate.
Idaho is taking in millions more in taxes and wondering what to do with it. I have an idea. Give it back to the taxpayers that paid the taxes and lower the state income tax rate and related tax tables. Another way is for the state to stop taxing food. In addition, have a flat $25/year car tag renewal regardless of the age of the vehicle.
GALEN KIDD, Boise
