Kilimanjaro - Lemosho Route 12th Feb 2014
So...I guess I am the first to post then....ok...My name is Dave Gurney and I have been talked into doing this "hill" by my brother (who is also going too...so I get to give him grief if it gets too tough!). Am currently on the cross trainer most nights, and doing as many peaks in the UK this year as I can get away with...
So if your on this trip too, then I wish you luck and see you there!
So... I guess I am the second to post then.... ok.... My name is Rob Gurney and I have also talked my brother into doing this "hill" (so I get to give him grief if he moans too much). Am currently on the cross trainer more nights than he is, and doing more peaks in the UK this year than him too....
Would love to hear from anyone else booked onto this trip - its going to be a good un.
Rob G
Evening people, I got new booties and now thanks to Daveg a neck thing too.
Look forward to meeting you all, bit worried I am not as hardcore as everyone else but in for a penny!
speak soon
Hi Angela
Have you ever considered pre-acclimatisation before heading out on your high-altitude trips? I put a post on the Exodus forum a while ago but no-one has responded. There are a few companies in the UK offering equipment hire so that you can get your body used to breathing reduced-oxygen air, which increases red blood cells etc.... The science behind it all seems valid, but it is quite costly. Is this something you have looked into? Or are you happy to rely on Diamox to get you through?
Rob G
Hi again Ang. While you chaps are on the subject of Diamox, I have been chatting to some people at work who have already done Kili, and they say that some people on their trip taking diamox messed up their appetites so they just didnt feel like eating...and this meant that they didnt eat enough to top up energy reserves? Any similar experiances of this or were you side-effect free?
By the way we all did Ben Nevis again last week (in the sunshine!)...and I was the slowest...so unless I beef up my training it will probably be me doing most of the whinging on the trip next year! Rob, however, was unanimously voted as the "Most Improved Climber" for his efforts!
Hi Colette, no need to apologise for the intrusion, any advice (or chat) is welcome :-)
Not heading up Ben Nevis again for a while...but it is certainly worth doing as it is such a relentless slog that it is pretty good stamina training.
I will let you know as soon as we have set a date it will probably be beginning rather than the end of September. We do quite a lot of walking in the lakes at weekends. We recently did the Old Man, two Loughriggs, and Crinkle Crags. We have done Scafel a couple of times and Snowdon many times aswel. Not too keen myself about Striding edge we did go last year but ended up on Swirrel edge due to taking the wrong path. I,m not too keen on knife edge ridges I have to say!!!
Hi...just to let you know I've also booked on this trip. DaveyBoyG - no harm in being slowish! in fact I would suggest practising to be slow (perhaps carrying more), as being used to walking in this country and doing altitude walking in Peru and Nepal, I was constantly told to slow down! and they usually allow plenty of time to walk on these trips - much shorter days than I usually do here i.e. certainly no rush, and in my experience a slow steady slog is best way to go (!) A big healthy twentysomething dutch guy got helicopted out of Annupurna when I was there...so patience can be better than fitness, although obviously some degree of fitness is pretty key. Also, food wise your digestion rate slows, so best not to eat too much heavy stuff and meat. Constant supply of small high energy stuff and keeping hydrated is best. I might take some walking energy bars I think. I remember having some minor headaches and some funny feelings at altitude....which I think happens to everyone to some degree.
I live in Norfolk so don't get much hill walking practice (!) but walk up and down the stairs to my 4th floor office a lot, which I've found keeps my legs in some degree of shape (!) Went to lakes last month and plan at least a couple more hill trips before going.
Have not signed up for the group flight, as hoping to fly KLM from Norwich, but still waiting to see if there is a sale/offer at some point. Anyone else thinking of flying with them?
hello Chris, Nicki, Rob, Dave, Jamie hope you are all starting to get very excited now ( I know we are )? how's your training going? I have just stepped up mine a little at the gym and we are still walking every Sunday. I did Ben Nevis in July but unfortunately Margarita was on holiday so did not come with me, It was good and managed to complete it in 6hrs 50min (not too bad I think). I a bit out of action at the moment as I managed to tear my cartilage in my knee three weeks ago! I am of the crutches though now and on the mend. We have treated ourselves to a couple of new tops and pants etc and go out doors have just replaced my boots as the rand had started to come away (not bad though I had had them 18mths so quite impressed that they replaced the for me). I am so excited I have even started to get sun cream ear plugs etc!!!
speak soon guys
Ang and Margarita x
Wow well done on your weight loss Rob that's a fantastic achievement :-)
Really good time on the Yorkshire 3 peaks to it's a bit gruesome that one! We have done it a couple of times and it takes us about 11hrs.
Good luck on your October trip I will think about you all whilst I am chilling out in Murcia lol
That's a good idea Rob re: trying out sleeping bags....might have to have a night or two out in the cold to get used to it. Mine is an old Mammut one a hired in Nepal, but I decided to keep it as it packs quite small. I think its a bit past its sell-by date...its says -29C on it, but I don't believe that! the coldest night I used it, I remember wearing all my clothes in the bag......there were snow storms outside, so it was pretty cold.... thermals always a good idea and pack small.
Noticed that this trip is now fully booked up! Looks like its a trip of life time for many....its a special one for me...my 40th year!
If anyone is looking at flights, I think I might book Kenyan...very good flights times.
Thinking of Snowdonia in Oct as my next hill trip! might take my tent!
Hi all, cant believe that it has been 3 months since I last posted here...where has the summer gone?? My bro (Rob) really has lost 4 stone and it is easy to see that this has managed to give a massive boost to his fitness (so he can pull me up that hill). It is a shame that this means that everything he had already purchased for this trip now doesnt fit him anymore...lol. Great to hear from you Chris, and look forward to seeing you in Feb. We are flying Kenya Airways too (into Nairobi , then onto Kili) so hopefull its a good un. I have heard some nasty stories about Kili trips using Ethiopian Airlines so was happy with Exodus's choice of airline I think.
Hi all...I booked the same Kenya group flight today so will be travelling on the same planes....Kilimanjaro is I hear a difficult airport to transfer to a hotel from, so it makes life a lot easier to be picked up at the same time as the group...the flight times are actually the best! Looking forward to it!
Anyone else find themselves kit binging before this trip?....I apologise beforehand if I look like I've stepped out of a Cotswolds catologue (!!) Will need to go on a trip or two to get my new stuff looking a bit more worn in I think (!!)
Hi all
100 days to go!!!!!!
Think we are reasonably kitted out now, just a few bits and pieces remain on the shopping list.
We managed to get up Skiddaw and Helvellyn a few weekends ago. Enjoyed the multi-day climbing with a cold and wet Keswick camp in between. Not quite a mini-Kili experience however, unless they have installed hot showers and Chinese restaurants at each overnight stop on the Lemosho route.....!
Anyone got any winter hillclimbing trips planned?
Rob G
Hi Ang
Nicki and I saw our GP a while ago and got a list of all the essentials (which luckily I already have, as I spend quite a bit of time overseas) and the optionals for the trip.
We were basically encouraged NOT to have the yellow fever injection, as (a) it is listed as optional, (b) it is expensive and (c) there is a small risk of actually catching the rather nasty disease from the innoculation....
However, Exodus have last week informed us that we are no longer flying Kenyan Airways into Nairobi. We are now booked onto the Ethiopian flight and I have read recent reports of Yellow Fever being a big issue in that country at the moment. So much so that there are instances of Tanzanian officials refusing to allow passengers off the plane from Ethiopia without first showing their YF certificates!!!! So - the "optional" jab is now very much an essential one for us.
Anyway, to answer your previous questions - we didn't do Striding Edge on our Helvellyn ascent. The weather was foul - strong winds, horizontal rain and poor visibility - and we really didn't fancy it (well, Jamie probably did, but we try our best to keep him safe....). Also - we will be taking Diamox with us on the trip, but probably only for emergency use rather than using it regardless. I am hoping that the Lemosho route being 2 days extra will mean that we adjust to the altitude that bit easier - fingers crossed anyway.
All the best - see you soon
Rob G
PS - any sign of any other Kili trekkers in the group? Or is it just the 7 of us?

""Make a mistake"?
This all stems from an order made in 2009, over a year and a half ago and is posted only now, in May of 2011. On that order the customer chose to have his package shipped via Uninsured USPS Mail. When the customer contacted us, he stated that the package looked like it was "tampered with". We shipped this order complete, but he chose a shipping method that was not insured and then threatened to do a charge back if we didn't refund the missing items. We refunded the missing items, and then marked this account so that it could not place future orders as this was against out company polices that he had already agreed to. It is clearly stated in the store policies (which the customer has to check off on during checkout) that if you choose a cheaper shipping method that it will not be an insured shipping method. A refund was issued nonetheless for customer satisfaction and not because we did something wrong. The customer seems to have forgotten that this wasn't a mistake we made, but a mistake by USPS. It's understandable as it has been over a year and a half.
This is a simple matter of the customer having sour grapes now that he can no longer make orders from us. We will continue to cancel his accounts and orders now and in the future because he did get a full refund on this old order and is only here to now post inaccurate information to slander our company."

"Restrict" This
The (soon to be abolished) District Council's officers are adamant that no help can be made available due to the "restrictive" covenant that prohibits both alcohol and gambling either on the premises or in fundraising.
I therefore propose that Croft View Hall rename itself "Croft View Mosque", and appeal to the Council for the money, ostensibly for a dome and four minarets, on the understanding that there can be neither alcohol nor gambling either on the premises or in fundraising.

Nice to see you adopting the language, and sense of humour, of the BNP.

There is nothing humorous about it. A mosque would not be treated like this.
Britain is due a religious revival as once she experienced the rise of Methodism, but at the current rate it will be an Islamic one.
There are already far more White British Muslims than you might think, and Islam is spreading like wild fire among young Afro-Caribbeans.
In several parts of the country, Nonconformist chapels from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are already having domes and minarets built onto them. - 28 November 2008 16:13
Thank you Anonymous - you took the words out of my mouth - it is well-known locally, of course, about the BNP's plans for David. In fact they are lining him up to be the "mixed race" face on their local leaflets in an attempt to hide their racist views.

Peas in a pod sounds like a good name too? These pieces look like they came from the same piece of wood, just one above the other. Great looking pieces.

Gary D'Amato offers news and insights, from the latest on Wisconsin tournaments and players to new technology, courses and instruction
Lombardi Classic has new energy, enthusiasm
Menomonee Falls -- The Vince Lombardi Memorial Golf Classic has raised more than $15 million to help fight cancer since its inaugural year in 1971. That alone makes it one of the most important golf events on the summer calendar in southeastern Wisconsin.
Like almost any event that has been around 42 years, however, the Lombardi has gone through cycles of change and in recent years seemed "stuck" in a bit of a time warp. The event, wildly popular and well-attended in its heyday, has had a tough time drumming up publicity and attracting crowds to North Hills Country Club. It's probably fair to say the Lombardi was hurt by a lack of out-of-the-box thinking. Not that the committee didn't try. It just seemed out of fresh ideas.
No more.
An infusion of young committee members who are excited and enthusiastic about the event and who have brought new ideas to the table has given the Lombardi Classic a palpable new energy. The 42nd annual Lombardi Classic is June 8 and 9 at North Hills; the first day is a private outing for the golfers and celebrities, but spectators are welcome June 9
I attended media day on Wednesday -- once a staple eagerly anticipated by media hacks but discontinued years ago -- and came away thoroughly impressed with the eagerness of the committee members to return the Lombardi Classic to its prominent place on the golf / social calendar.
The committee promptly made Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby a co-chairman with Bart Starr, whose dedication over the years has been hugely responsible for keeping the Lombardi Classic going.
Making Crosby a co-chairman was a stroke of genius. He's a golf geek who plays to a low single-digit handicap and loves the game. He's planning a trip to St. Andrews in Scotland this summer with his wife and has a tee time on the Old Course. Crosby also has studied Packers history and understands what the names Lombardi and Starr mean to Packer Nation. And he wants to be involved for all the right reasons.
"Bart Starr has done such an amazing job for so many years," Crosby told me. " All those (Lombardi Packers) keep coming back and we just kind of want to bring it all together. We want that group of guys and the current guys, just the tradition of the Packers and the Lombardi Foundation and this golf event. Just try to make it as big as possible. That's kind of where my role is."
Crosby said he was working his Packers teammates, trying to get as many as possible to commit to playing in the Lombardi Classic without being obnoxious about it.
"I try not to bug too much," he said. "It's more just, 'It's a really good cause.' I tell them exactly what it is and hopefully some of the guys will come down. I already had four or five guys say, 'We're going to be there.' I'll definitely get the rookies. I'll be like, 'You're coming.'"
The group of celebrities already is one of the best in years. Here's a list of celebs who have committed:
Morten Andersen, Jim Bakken, Desmond Bishop, Bret Bielema, Bonnie Blair-Cruikshank, Zeke Bratkowski, Willie Buchanan, Paul Coffman, Crosby, Lynn Dickey, Santana Dotson, Bruce Froemming, Brett Goode, Jim Grabowski, Ahman Green, Arte Johnson, Perry Kemp, Michael King, Gary Knafelc, Greg Koch, Jerry Kramer, Tim Lewis, Tim Masthay, Doug Melvin, Pat Richter, Ken Sanders, Starr, Jim Temp, Frank Winters, Ickey Woods and Robin Yount.
Mark it down on your calendar: June 9, Lombardi Classic, North Hills. You can make a difference in the fight against cancer and be entertained at the same time. What could be better than that?

Ickey Shuffle after every birdie. Can't beat that.
I remember caddying for this event. Bob Ueker is the biggest p.o.s. person you could ever meet. The guy was a jerk to every caddie he came across. Bart Starr on the other hand, amazing person. Was happy to meet him.

How to Pick a Credit Card for Your Small Business
The new credit card law (CARD Act) that came into effect earlier this year has changed the credit card landscape considerably. Consumers using personal credit cards now have additional protection from things such as unexpected interest rate increases and extensive penalty fees. Unfortunately, business credit cards were not included in the protections provided by the CARD Act and continue to carry risk for business owners who use them as a funding vehicle.
Although they are called business credit cards, the business owner is still personally responsible for the debt incurred on the card. Since you are assuming this risk already, business owners should consider the advantages of both personal and business credit cards when making decisions about how to finance their business. In my opinion, a personal credit card is the best choice for funding purposes (i.e. when you have to carry a large balance) because of their protection under the CARD Act, and business credit cards are the best choice for purchases that you know you can pay back in full right away.
Using a personal credit card for funding will offer you predictability, which is essential in making long-term financial plans. Under the CARD Act, the credit card company is not allowed to increase your interest rate on an existing balance until you are a full 60 days past due. With a business credit card, on the other hand, the credit card company may change your interest rate suddenly and for any reason at all.
Additionally, the final phase of the Credit CARD Act that went into effect on August 22nd, also put limits on penalty fees for personal credit cards, relieving you of the superfluous costs of extensive fees.
While business credit cards do not offer the same protection as personal cards, they have their own advantages too. For example, business credit cards are much more effective in tracking and managing daily expenses, as they allow you to set different credit limits and give individual cards to each employee.

Task Manager only shows the "Svchost" as a process, failing to show the actual processes it loaded. This often leads to confusion as to why so many duplicate services seem to be running. At a command prompt, enter:
tasklist /svc /fi "imagename eq svchost.exe"
to see the actual services that svchost has loaded.
Users can encounter crash events that list svchost.exe as the problem. It really means the DLL that svchost loaded is the problem, not Svchost itself. Svchost is considered a critical process within Windows and cannot be terminated with Task Manager.
This directory holds the core operating system files and libraries.
This directory holds the 32-bit system files on the 64-bit editions of Windows. WOW stands for Windows On Windows. When a 32-bit program runs, Windows will simulate this directory as being c:\windows\system32 for backwards compatibility.
The WinSxS directory holds Windows Side-by-Side DLLs. WinSxS allows multiple versions of the same DLL (code libraries) to exist on the same system. This ensures that every application will get the DLL version they were tested and designed for. The result is improved application and system stability. See details for full directory location.

Notes: Nice to have the IO panel on the front for a change. Now, if only there were slots for CF/MD, SD/MMC, SM/XD, MS -- slot readers. I have an after market slot reader that has those along with eSATA, 3xUSB2, IEEE 1394, mic and headphones. I keep waiting for case manufacturers to figure out that having some of this stuff built in is a good idea. I've seen a couple of cases with slot readers. Bulged-out right side panel bodes well for cable management. Excellent filters on the bottom, with those bridging feet. Too bad the back filters slides out the back. Hard to get to it if your case is up against a wall. Is there room for a fan in the forward top position? Nice wide cpu window in the mb tray. Clever use of mid-case fans. The HD cages look restrictive though. As usual, these articles are worth reading for their excellence, rather than for the sake of the cases themselves. |

The Claws Will Come Out at CMS in 2013
Health plans and other stakeholders in Medicare Advantage and Part D can be assured of one thing by President Obama's reelection: that the claws will come out at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) in his second term.
Election Gives Health Reform the Kiss of Life
It's hard to argue this wasn't a decisive victory for the President and Democrats in the Senate. What remains to be seen is whether intractable Congressional Republicans will come to the table to get stuff done.
Fact-Checking the Medicare Advantage Clash at Biden/Ryan Debate
Like most, I found the Biden/Ryan debate last week some of the best TV of the election season. Both were well-prepared and spoiling for a fight, and moderator Martha Raddatz did a terrific job. There was one exchange that really got our attention when the topic turned to Medicare Advantage:
Romney-Ryan Plans for Medicare Are Kid Stuff Compared to What They'd Do to Medicaid
GOP nominees Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have big plans for Medicare reform, as we've written about here often. But health plans and other stakeholders need to start paying attention to their plans for Medicaid, which are game-changing, would affect millions more Americans, and would take effect much sooner: a recent Bloomberg report found that Romney/Ryan's changes to Medicaid would lead to an estimated $1.26 trillion drop in federal funding from 2014 through 2022. Other analyses estimated that 14-27 million Medicaid beneficiaries could lose coverage if the campaign's promise to block-grant the program became reality.
More Swing-State Voters Trust Obama on Medicare
We all know seniors vote in huge numbers, and that Medicare has become a centerpiece issue in this Presidential campaign with the selection of Rep. Paul Ryan as the GOP VP candidate. Gallup is out with a new poll showing registered voters in swing states prefer President Obama to Mitt Romney on Medicare.
With Presidential Election Static, Senate Slips from GOP's Grip
The most frequent question I get is "what will the elections mean to Medicare and Medicaid?" We've said here the Republicans' only hope of repealing the Affordable Care Act and enacting entitlement reform comes from making President Obama a one-termer, maintaining their majority in the House, and retaking the Senate. At the moment the Presidential race remains largely unchanged, with Mitt Romney getting a disappointing bounce from the GOP convention; Republicans will likely hold the House, but their grip on retaking the US Senate is slipping — and with it, any chance of ObamaCare repeal or major changes to Medicare and Medicaid.
Romney's Budget Promises on Medicare Cannot Be True
The political jiu-jitsu on Medicare since the selection of Paul Ryan as the GOP Vice Presidential candidate has been amazing to watch. Democrats shriek Romney/Ryan will "end Medicare as we know it." Romney/Ryan countered by charging that health reform was funded by $716 Billion in Medicare cuts — it's Obama who is the threat to the program. At the moment they're fighting to a draw in the polls on the issue. But the fact is that Romney's budget would restore the ACA cuts to Medicare – and require everything else the Federal government does except Social Security and defense to be cut by a catastrophic 40% as a result. Which means Romney's budget proposal isn't worth the paper it's on.

New ComRes Poll – Tories Increase Lead to 4%
There is a new poll from Communicate Research reported tonight for tomorrow's Independent and ITV News which shows the Conservatives and Labour up and the Lib Dems down:
Conservative 33% (up 1%)
Lib Dem 29% (down 2%)
Labour 29% (up 1%)
Changes are within the margin of error but overall the changes are in line with the earlier Populus poll suggesting the Lib Dems drifting downwards and the Conservatives up again.
New Populus Poll – Tories Pull Away From Lib Dems
There is a new Populus poll reported tonight for tomorrow's Times which shows the Conservatives stretching their lead over the Lib Dems to 8%:
Conservative 36% (up 4%)
Lib Dem 28% (down 3%)
Labour 27% (down 1%)
This poll suggests again that the Lib Dem tide is turning but Labour will be concerned that despite the Lib Dem fall they are still in second place.
Another West/East Mix Up From Local Lib Dems
A week ago I wrote about the campaign website of Reading East Lib Dem candidate Gareth Epps, which saw him promising "a Fresh Start for Reading West". Of course it was swiftly amended as soon as I blogged it but a kind correspondent had screen-captured the blooper for me. You might think therefore that the Lib Dems would be most careful not to repeat the error.
However, a resident has passed me a copy of a "Focus" leaflet currently being distributed in Redlands ward. Not only is Epps once again advertised as the candidate for Reading West but he is described as the "perspective" (sic) candidate! The same caption suggests that "a resident" is posing for the photo with Gareth (Reading West) and Daisy Benson (Redlands). If you look closely, that "resident" bears more than a passing resemblance to Lib Dem Councillor Warren Swaine, who not only does not represent Redlands but lives in Katesgrove ward.
So that one Lib Dem photo and caption is confusing, misleading AND inaccurate. Quite an achievement!
Have a look at the leaflet here.

Today, I remember thinking as we purred westwards in the new Continental Supersport, may turn out to be a very bad day for Bentley.
We were in Spain, an hour out of Seville, heading for a circuit called Monteblanco to test the fastest, most powerful Bentley in history. It suddenly struck me that the Crewe company was taking a serious risk with its reputation, given that it was planning to let us loose on the very same asphalt we'd recently used to drive Jaguar's brilliant XFR at the limit. How would it look if a $265,000 luxury coupe couldn't match the all-around ability of a Jaguar sedan costing $97k?
A familiarization tour of the track gave little reassurance. It's a modern track, wide and well surfaced, with a very long straight that piles you immediately into a complex hairpin – ideal territory for a 621hp, 2.2-ton Bentley to attain huge speeds before overpowering its brakes and tires while trying to stop and turn at the end. As for the rest of the circuit, it's a succession of late-apex swoops – perfect for the Continental to demonstrate the traditional lack of adjustability of all-wheel-drive cars by negotiating them in moaning understeer. Despite the fact that I'd briefly and successfully driven the Supersports back in the UK, I had feelings of foreboding…
The Supersports itself looked wonderful. Derived from a "skunkworks" project produced under the radar by a group of Crewe car nuts who believed there was room for one more performance level above the Continental GT Speed, the model looks far sportier than any other Bentley model. All of the traditional chrome is replaced by "smoked steel" brightwork, the instant sign of a no-nonsense character. A modified front facade provides bigger intakes for cooling air, and there are new hood slots to allow the air out. The car wears a superb set of black, 20-inch, thin-spoked alloy wheels, through which its standard 420mm diameter carbon ceramic brakes, the biggest on a production car, are visible. They are fitted with specially formulated 275/30 Pirelli P Zero tires. The rear wheel arches are flared to cope with an increase in rear track, which engineers demanded as a means of adjusting the handling balance.
It takes a whole suite of subtle engineering changes to a Speed to make the Supersports. The extra engine cooling air gathered at the front feeds larger chargecoolers that help lift the turbocharged power of Bentley's mighty 6.0-liter W12 by 3.5 percent to 621hp at 6000rpm, while also boosting torque by 6.5 percent to a new and extraordinary peak of 590lb ft, measurable anywhere between 1700 and 5600rpm. The car can now accelerate from 0-100mph in just 8.9sec and top 204mph, and it'll do these things whether it's burning pure gasoline or E85. Like every future Bentley, this Supersports will run on gas or ethanol, or any mixture of the two, and the driver won't be able to tell the difference. This is Bentley's highly original contribution to cutting greenhouse gas emissions by up to 70 percent.
The ESP has been tuned to allow for more exuberant driving before it intrudes. The carbon brakes, optional on other Bentleys, are standard on this one. The new set of thin-spoke forged wheels are specially styled to expose the brakes more and contribute 20 pounds to a total weight saving over the GT Speed of 243 lbs (the Supersports' carbon-tub bucket seats contribute 100lbs). There is no rear seat, only a big-diameter carbon brace running across the car behind the front buckets. All these changes go to make a model that Bentley describes as the most extreme in its history, which is why Crewe has applied the revered "Supersports" tag to it. The original Supersports was a Le Mans-spec 3-Liter that produced 85hp and could crack 100mph, in an era when most cars had 15hp and couldn't do 40mph.

Dear ,
Derlin as much I understand is one of latest polymers in use for Aerospace parts, electronic & communication devices.
Lets admit that after all its a plastic and not a metal. Fine plastic threads can deflect easily compared to metal threads.
UNC 6-32 is a small fine pitch size of aproximately 0.8mm thread pitch.
The possible causes are that a ? mark shaped helicoil insertion tool is in use.
OR a plain mandrel type prewinder insertion tool is in use , these type of tools don't guide the helicoil wire properly & could make them jump over in case of relatively flexible thread flanks in derlin.
Best to use a Threaded mandrel TYPE-II prewinder of HeliCoil Part # 7551-06 to prevent thread jump over.
Further a marginally better shaped thus stronger thread in derlin can be created by using serial taps ; rough first & then finish.
Somewhat significant thread flank strength improvement can be observed by using thread forming / Roll taps . ( check derlin physical property on permanent deformation)
You can download HeliCoil technical catalog from website www.helicoil.in for further information & support.

The numbers have shifted for four teams following this past weekend's developments. Joe Fortenbaugh
Not much has changed in the eyes of Las Vegas bookmakers following the conclusion of the 2013 NFL draft.
Adjustments have been made to four teams since our last update on March 17, which came at the end of the free agent feeding frenzy. The LVH sports book in Las Vegas has dropped the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 60/1 to 40/1 while New Orleans, Arizona and the New York Jets have all shifted in the opposite direction.
Here's the complete rundown:

Northern Power Systems offers administrative software to monitor their Northwind 100 Wind Turbine. Here is a website that shows the McGlynn Middle School's turbine in Medford, MA.
A quote from the Northern Power Systems website says it best:
PublicView: Your Community's Window Into Your Northwind 100 Turbine
The turbine is up and spinning, the ribbon cutting is over, and most of the news camera crews have gone home. But neighbors, residents, and customers are still calling, inquiring, and visiting the newest addition to their town. PublicView is a web-based tool that can provide answers to the questions people may have, such as:
- How much power is the Northwind 100 producing?
- How windy is it today?
- How much energy has the Northwind 100 made to date?
Your turbine will be the center of attention for at least the first few years of operation. Giving your neighbors a window into its operation and impact can encourage long-term support and a sense of community involvement in your wind project.
Good for 'em!

Twin rings

Advantages: Look good, great price, very clear
Disadvantages: Volume of ring tone too low, doesn't beeop for a message
We were given a set of phones when we first moved into our own home but towards the end of last year we found that they were no longer working properly and we decided we were going to have to buy some new ones. We quite liked the idea of having an answering machine as it was what we were used to so we set off to find a set of two phones complete with answering machine.
I was quite surprised that we found these phones in our local b & m discount store as we had only visited the store for a couple of bits and pieces before going phone shopping, the phones cost us £35.99 which we knew was a decent price as we had had a look on the internet before we had gone shopping so we had some idea of what price we would be paying. The phones came securely packaged in a cardboard box and all of the packaging was suitable for recycling.
On opening the box we found the 2 handsets and 2 bases complete with wires and plugs to allow them to charge and there were four rechargeable AAA batteries two for each handset, the base with the answering mahcine on it is bigger than the one without and all the screens had sticky plastic covers on them to protect the screens. The phones weren't fastened into the box in any way so it was easy to remove them from their packaging and underneath everything was an instruction manual.
The phones that we bought were not only for answering calls, you also have the answering machine, an address book which holds up to 50 contacts, a redial list of up to 10 numbers, a 40 number call list, a clock, keypad lock, call timer and a low battery alert.
The phone was very easy to set up literally just plugging the charger wire into the base and then plugging into the wall socket and leaving it to charge for an initial 24 hours before using it. My husband set the phone up initially so I don't know exactly how to do it but he managed it pretty easily and managed to have the correct date and time set, we don't use the programmable contacts list as we don't ring out on the landline so we don't need them in.
The phones look pretty good too, they are silver in colour and have rounded corners making then look pretty sleek, the bases are also silver in colour and both handset and base are black on the back. The buttons all dip in the middle and the phone is comfortable to hold even when you are on a call for quite some time.
The phone works well and the sound is extremely clear, the ring tone on the phone is not very loud and my daughter has to shout me if the phone rings when I am in the kitchen as it simply isn't loud enough to be heard from there. There is an intercom button which will call the other phone, ours is upstairs and this has come in useful rather than shouting up the stairs when my little one is sleeping, I would say the phones don't seem quite so clear when using the intercom. The phones have a good range supposedly 300 metres outside and 50 metres inside, when my Mam had an accident and needed to speak to my Dad she rang my phone as he was engaged and I was able to walk next door and into another house and the phone still worked pefectly. If your signal is getting weak on the phone the signal symbol will flash however this is pretty useless if you are on the phone as you would have it to your ear and not notice this anyway.
The answering machine can hold up to 12 minutes of messages and each message can be a maximum of 3 minutes long, the answer machine is clear and gives you the date and time of your message aslong as you have set these details, the controls for the machine are easy making it easy to play and delete your messages. The drawback of the answering machine is that it doesn't let you know when you have a message apart from a number on the screen whereas my old phone beeped to let you know which is better.
I would recommend these phones but we are thinking of buying another single handset to have in the kitchen due to the volume issue but this is probably as the kitchen is an extension so is quite far from the phone. The phones do what we wanted and so I give them 4 stars.
Summary: A pretty good system for the price

Help on the value of a 1978 P-Bass
An older gentleman at our church asked me to sell his 78 P Bass for him today. It's a beauty. Clear ash body with a b/w/b pickguard and like new hardshell case. The bass has a few small dings and a little buckle rash, but is mostly in very good shape. I adjusted it and gave it a good going over. Everything works great, it sounds and plays excellent. What is the going rate for these? He wants to sell it quick as he need the money, but I don't want to see him take it in the shorts! He also has a Peavey MK bass amp ( head ) he wants to sell. This one looks like it's brand new. I need help on the value of that also. Many thanks for your help!

EBay is pulling pretty good value these days. I've been suprised a couple of times on recent sales, where items went for me thatI thought they would. I'd go there for a valuation.
I haven't been watching the P Bass market lately but I would guess in the $500 range. A '78 wouldn't be that highly sought after. the right buyer comes along though ... and you can never tell. Assuming that the Peavey is one of the smaller ones (100 to 125 watts) and is a head, figure around $1.00 per watt. Maybe a tad more. I just sold a near mint Hartke 3500 at $270 which was about $25 more than I guessed. Hope that's helpful. Mal |

You'd be surprised what a late '70s P will bring!
eBay is definitely the place to sell it to get as much bread as you can.
Regarding what late-'70s Ps are worth, check out what the Swami at the Bass Palace has some priced at. He's got one tagged at $1100!! JAM

Yeah, he has but are you prepared to pay that price? No way man, they are'nt worth that amount of money. £600 tops And thats for a mint condition.
Having said that, there's always someone who'll pay over the odds. |

Gucci Mane - Bricks ft. Yo Gotti & Yung Ralph
Artist: Gucci Mane
Featuring: Yo Gotti , Yung Ralph
Producer: Zaytoven
Album: TBD
Avg Rating: 3.1 ( 67 total votes )
Despite collecting plenty of street cred over the years, thanks in part to beating an attempted murder charge and spending several stints in jail, rapper Gucci Mane hasn't strayed away from his bread and butter material: drugs. Following the winter release of his Asylum/Atlantic debut, Back to the Trap House, Mane is ready to serve some brand new Bricks he just cooked up. On this Zaytoven-produced street banger, which features guest appearances by Yo Gotti and Yung Ralph, the self-proclaimed 'So Icey Boy' jokingly considers leaving the drug-dealing world, but then comes to his senses when he lists all the purchases he has made with his profits from moving kilos.

Using funds allocated 25 years ago, the state is providing $5 million to buy a crumbling shipyard that dominates the waterfront of Oyster Bay, a sheltered haven that yields 90 percent of the oysters harvested in New York State.
The 5.2-acre site at the southern end of the bay is bordered by beaches and public parkland. Much of the bay has been designated a National Wildlife Refuge and is home to the Pine Island oyster.
The Town of Oyster Bay board is to vote on Tuesday on a proposal to provide an additional $1 million for the purchase.
In a statement announcing the land purchase, Gov. George E. Pataki said, ''This cooperative purchase will recapture an important part of Oyster Bay's waterfront and the area's unique maritime character.''
He added, ''It will allow for redevelopment that will turn a dilapidated eyesore into a vibrant economic and recreational resource.''
The $5 million will come from the state's 1972 Environmental Quality Bond Act. Previously, the money was designated for a solid waste incinerator on Long Island that was never built, according to a statement from the Governor's office.

Dear Pai,
It's been months since we parted. But I still think about you all the time. You have left such an indelible mark on me. You have shown me your beauty, your lovely light. You are worth braving the thousand hairpin curves that lead to you. Pai, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways...
1. Bikes bikes everywhere! Vintage bikes, decorated rickshaws, even planter box bikes!
2. You overwhelm me with your Pai smiles. I see it on your walls, your people and even your banks!
3. You got me hooked on your delicious cappucinos, bannoffee pies and artsy cafes!
4. You are a paradise of art! You corners are filled with pretty little corners just waiting to be discovered. I also adore your beautiful souvenirs like postcards and custom t-shirts.
5. You are a photographer's (and a model's) dream setting. There are so many places to visit in this town. The Chinese village, the Japanese WWII bridge, Coffee is Love cafe...
6. Pai is a truly romantic town. Love is all around!
7. Where else could you find an upside down house?
8. Pretty, colorful street art! An entire town just came together to create a place that would make you smile.
9. For a touristy town, it's impressively clean. There's absolutely no trash in sight. And the air is fresh! How's that for a community effort?
10. 3 words: Manual ferris wheel! Wheeeee!
Did you fall in love with Pai just like us? Who wouldn't? If you get to Northern Thailand, make sure you drop by this place. When people ask me what I think about Pai, I always answer: Pai is love.
Getting there:
Pai is only 134 km from the city of Chiang Mai, Thailand. But the ride takes 3-4 hours because of a steep, winding road. It was so winding that 5 out of 8 people in our van threw up. The only ones who were spared were Chichi, myself and the driver. So make sure you take your car sickness pills and a barf bag!
Forever in love with Pai.
Sole Sister Lois

Cria Training Author: Liz MacEachran
Like most farms, we get our share of visits from small groups cub scouts, school classes, etc. They pet the alpacas, ooh and aah over the crias, and thats about it. When we had a group from an after-school program for middle-schoolers, it went like any other visit, but after they left, I felt dissatisfied with it and wondered if there was something more meaningful we could do.
Two years ago I sat down with two of the program directors and we came up with a plan to have some of the kids come out and help train our youngsters to walk on halters. We decided to run our program during March and April. We hoped most of the snow and ice would be gone, and it wouldnt be too cold. Of course, this is New England, and kids here dont mind the cold much, but we didnt want crias or kids getting hurt on the ice.
Two to three days a week an adult brings four kids to the farm. The staff has to find out ahead of time which kids really want to come. We tell each group of kids that they are alpaca trainers, and their job is to teach the alpacas not to be afraid. We also tell them that they are the bosses, and the alpacas must do what the kids want . We dont harp on the dont run, dont yell thing. We know the staff has stressed that, and we want them to have fun. And lastly, we tell them if their alpaca is going to drag them down the driveway on their face, let go of the lead. The cria will just run back to the barn. Then we grit our teeth and resist the urge to micromanage kids or crias.
Four kids walk four crias (from six months old to almost a year) for ten or so minutes, then we put those crias back, and the kids walk four more. Next session four different, kids, four different crias. Within a week or so, weve met all the kids and the crias have too.
At first they just walk the crias around our driveway. Generally theres too much snow everywhere else. Then we begin to introduce new challenges. Up the steps onto the porch or through the gardens. Sometimes a simple obstacle course. One day we have a pretend show, and the crias must stand quietly for the judge to examine them. For some reason the kids love loading-in-the-trailer day best. One by one, the kids with their crias jump into one end of the trailer and out the other. They do this over and over.
I dont think its important what they do with the alpacas. The crias just learn that walking on a lead and being around kids and noise and strange objects is not a big deal. The kids learn that even though theyre just kids, they can help a young animal learn something new. Were often warned in advance that a certain kid is hyperactive or has behavior problems and must be supervised closely. That kid is often the most patient, conscientious one we see. Noisy kids become quiet, shy kids become talkative, passive kids become assertive. And the cria that flops on its side for us may walk beautifully for a child.
We stop our sessions once we get busy with shows. After the last show of the spring, we go to the program center with all our ribbons and banners and show the kids what the alpacas have won. They feel they participate in our wins, but really, that doesnt seem very important to them. Its a little inconvenient to always be at home and available the days the kids come, but look what we get out of it: its lots of fun and a lot gets accomplished. Look for us at the shows. Were the ones with the bulletproof crias!

Boston Celtics vs Washington Wizards 12/21/2013, at TD Garden ... Find Tickets
The hat tipAn official in the Cowboys' 16-10 win over the Buccaneers threw a hat that appeared to disrupt the progress of Dallas receiver Kevin Ogletree. Officials throw a hat when a receiver steps out of bounds during a play, though the video did not indicate that Ogletree stepped out of bounds. Cowboys QB Tony Romo targeted Ogletree with a throw into the corner of the end zone, but the receiver had lost his footing—seemingly from stepping on the hat in the end zone.

I have always said that there is an unlikely alliance in Memphis with the black elite and the white elite. The white elite is racist to a large extent, the black elite doesn't trust them, but working together serves both their purposes.
It keeps them in power.
