America's national parks are a gift to the world. We wrapped up four of our favourites, mixed in some high-energy outdoor thrills, and put a nice little Sin City bow on them, just for you. Here, you'll hike among the hoodoos in Bryce Canyon, refresh yourself with a river swim in Zion, marvel at the sandstone formations of Arches NP, raft the Colorado River, and gape at the awesome majesty of the Grand Canyon.

A little food for thought regarding SPACE
July 10, 2007, 09:52:38 AM »
From the Chronicle of Philanthropy

Washington Nonprofit Groups Looking to Buy Office Space Instead of Renting
Large annual increases in rental prices in Washington have spurred area nonprofit groups to purchase office condominiums instead of renting space, reports The Washington Post.
In the past year and a half, about a dozen nonprofit groups have bought or signed contracts to purchase office condos.
After 30 years of leasing, we would be better off had we bought, dealing with the realities of the Washington, D.C., leases, said the Rev. Tom Gaunt, executive secretary of the Jesuit Conference, which recently bought a total of 17,000 square feet of office space. The immediate cost will be more in the initial years. Were fully expecting savings seven to 10 years out. Well be paying less than if we kept renewing our current lease.

This does require some (gulp) long term thinking and some medium to heavy duty fundraising...
Things, I'm afraid are only going to get worse in this town; wouldn't be surprised to see theatre get priced out of existence in Capitol Hill in the not-too-distant future...

Having rented and managed a space in Denver, I can only concur with Karen's post. Rent will only grow with time, and will never increase your assets. You have to ask yourself, do I want to own and run a space, or do I want to manage someone Else's. A tough choice? Yes.
Roger, long term? Absolutely...and there is nothing wrong with looking at your company in the long term.
Cheers, and success,

I think the problem is most "fringe" (if you will) companies have a hard enough time thinking about their next season, let alone long-term planning. you need a good mix of artistic and financial managing talent. and by "a good mix," i mean a lot of both.

This thread illustrates something that I think is desperately lacking in "Arts" education (and as we all know, I am far from an academic). At some point, I think that business education should be injected into a Fine Arts degree. Chances are, at some point, as artists we are each going to become a partner or creator of a company. Business is business and it would be helpful for artists to know how to accomplish running a successful one. Perhaps if Karen takes a peek at this she could point us all to some resources that can help accomplish this (or am I a fool for not noticing it before).

I've been having exactly this discussion with people for - oh, about fifteen or sixteen years now.
I completely agree with your premise, but the difficulty arises from the simple fact that many of the people running university degree programs in the arts, and in particular the performing arts, have little or no practical experience as working artists themselves. They're academics, and the entirety of their professional experience has occured in an academic setting. For the remainder of those who actually have worked out there in "the real world", their own business skills may be marginal-to-non-existent, and which possibly contributed to their shift from profressional to academic career tracks in the first place. Meanwhile, the handful that do "get" the need for teaching the BUSINESS side of "Show Business" frequently have good intentions. but just as often run into resistance within their own departments. "That's not our job," they're told, or, "we do not wish to sully our art with considerations of crass commerce", or, "if artists want to be business people, they should pursue an MBA degree," or other such nonsense.
Frequently this attitude comes from a position of simple ignorance, but it also can come from a fear that putting students in the position of honestly confronting some of the more difficult challenges of their profession, particularly ones that instructors themselves find problematic, may only serve to discourage students from pursuing their particular degree program; and nowadays, with the explosive growth of liberal arts programs, particular those in the performing arts in the past 10 - 15 years, nobody wants to do anything to upset their cash-cow.
As a result, literally thousands, if not tens of thousands of young performers are handed their diplomas, and thrust out into the highly competitive (and in my opinion, already over saturated) marketplace, with at best, only the most minimal business skills required to successfully develop and maintain a professional working career. But for the most part, nobody has spoken to them about developing a business plan, about marketing (other than, "get headshots"), about personal or business finances, about taxes, about - well, about anything that could have a significant financial impact on their careers. And so, they're left to flounder around helplessly, maybe picking up a few things as they go along, or perhaps at some point coming to the realization that they're deficient in these areas, at which point they may seek out expertise or additional education to get up-to-speed.
But for the most part, what I see when I conduct tax seminars, or on rare occasions get invited to actually come speak to students on the subject, are young performers who, for the most part have never even paid taxes, let alone prepared their own returns, who haven't the faintest idea about deducting business expenses, or, about categorizing and allocating income and expenses; heck, most don't even know how to correctly fill out employment forms! And frankly, even a lot of established working artists just don't have enough of a "left brain/right brain balance" to fully understand math and related concepts (although truthfully, if I can do it, anyone else can too, given sufficient time, training, and motivation), so they just let it slide until the problem finally becomes too intractable to ignore, THEN they start hunting around for someone - anyone to help them out, which unfortunately, most often means they end up someplace like H&R Block, where the so-called "tax specialists" don't have any better understanding of the specific issues relating to their profession than they do! This is generally the point where they start showing up on my "doorstep".
People seldom do what they believe in. They do what is convenient, then repent.

Best Uses
I'm a chemist, not a floor installer. My knees and legs were very sore after a day of installation. Remember this for doing it yourself. The floor itself looks good, and took about a day for an 11' x 11' room. The tiles trimmed quickly and easily, but I found that my roto saw was the best tool for cutting odd shapes around baseboards and doors.
Best Uses
After a little practice of fitting and cutting the boards the installation was very easy and looks professionally done. Must have quality kneepads.
Best Uses
We had it installed in our family room, which was originally a garage. We had installed indoor/outdoor carpet many years ago, and it was thrashed. We decided to go with a different look, and this flooring has warmed up the space so much. It looks like wood, but it is so durable, and it was a very reasonable price! We love it!
Service and delivery comments:
We had to order the flooring from Virginia, because the two local stores didn't have enough of the style we wanted. The delivery took quite a while, but it was worth the wait. It arrive in good condition and looks fabulous - even better than we had anticipated. Customer Service was okay, but the clerks in the Miramar store were very helpful, and the final installers were great!
Best Uses
Great flooring! After installing it in my kitchen and dining room, I decided to do the rest of my house also. Scratches when heavy furniture is moved across it, but is easily replaced. Use ply wood before moving furniture.
Service and delivery comments:
Service at Lumber Liquidators was awesome. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Best Uses
It's easy to install after you watch the video & figure out the right way to do it & once you get enough done so you have room to position yourself on the side where you can pull it toward you to click it in place. After that, it went very smoothly. Looks great! I'm am very particular & am impressed at how nice it looks. We matched it as closely as we could to the adjoining dining room floor. We will use it in other rooms we are planning to remodel including 2.5 bathrooms & a basement. Very happy with the product. By the way, price was the best price we found locally. Online stores had a little lower prices but with the shipping costs, it was a little more than what we paid locally.
Best Uses
Love this flooring...I bought it for my common areas and bedrooms. It looks like a hardwood floor only better...my dogs can't damage it!
Best Uses
The traffic in my split level home comes in on the ground level floor where the family room is located. When there's bad weather this level gets all the rain, snow, and mud tracked in. I've had wood laminate before and although it can be beautiful I was afraid it just wouldn't hold up. I went with this vinyl laminate on my local store's recommendation. This stuff is great! Had a bunch of kids and 2 dogs here at Christmas. After playing in the snow it was inevitable that water would get tracked in. This stuff was impervious to all the abuse they handed it. I still wipe up water spills- just habit from my days of dealing with wood laminate- but even if I didn't I don't think it would hurt this super tough surface. And it looks great too. I love it!
Best Uses
We used this product on our porch and so far it looks great. Easy to install if the sub floor is prepped correctly.
Best Uses
We used this product in an enclosed above ground porch. Since it was recommended for a sauna thought the product will hold up under adverse temperature conditions. The porch looks great, cozy and warm. We had indoor/outdoor carpet and this is a welcome change.
Best Uses
Here is a tip, may sure the you get the first 2 course absolutely straight, even more important here then most materials. The tongue, click together does not hold very well. They tend to be harder to fit together then you'd expect. Take your time.
They do cut nice with laminate cutter (rough) or circular saw for precise cuts. Looks nice when finished. Tough floor, but it scratches easier then a quality laminate floor.

I can't tell from the picture, but does this have a hand scraped texture to it? Or is it just flat?1 answer
This product question would be better answered by our Sales Department, they are more familiar with all of our flooring products and can better assist you with your questions.Q:

MAINTENANCE (Dos and DONTs)Q:
Is any type of underlayment (padding) required to be layed before installation? Also, how do you maintain this flooring? The instructions say not to use soap or a wet mop but they do not state what to use instead.1 answer
TRANQUILITY may be installed with or without an underlayment. When doing so, the recommended underlayments are Bellawood Premium and ECO Silent Sound. These high quality underlayments best support the joints while ensuring superior thermal and sound reduction qualities. To maintain this floor sweep or vacuum regularly. Use cleaning products safe for vinyl planks such as our Bellawood floor cleaner.Q:
I don't know of too many floors that are perfectly level, especially older wood floors. Is there a minimum spec for the wood floors that have some concaved boards or a floor that is almost level on the surface but slopes about 3/4" to 1" towards one wall??1 answer
You can find complete installation instructions on the product page by clicking on the installation tab and then clicking on - Installation Guide.Q:
What is the wear layer thickness for the shenandoah Mtn. American Cherry Tranquility Vinyl Resilient flooring/product?1 answer
The wear layer is 0.1mm and is made of polyurethane.Q:
Can this product be used as a dance studio floor, installed over concrete? What type of underlayment for cushioning is available?1 answer
I would not recommend it for this application.Q:
You have recommended using a dry Swiffer for cleaning but can a wet mop be also used for cleaning?1 answer
Wet mopping can potentially cause moisture to seep under the flooring damaging the subfloor and/or causing mold by trapping that moisture under the flooring.Q:
Can this be used for a covered porch?1 answer
All of our flooring products are designed and recommended for interior use only.Q:
What can be done to this flooring to keep the end joints from coming unlocked, which is creating large gaps (1/2" and larger) between the ends? Also, the 1/4" perimiter gap has grown to 1" to 2" on some runs. The trim doesn't cover the gaps anymore in some spots. This is installed inside, climate controlled. It is getting very annoying to have to go down each run and "kick" the flooring back together, closing the gaps, only to have it happen again, and again, and again!1 answer
Please contact Technical and Installation; email@example.com or call 1-800-366-4204Q:
I have a seasonal lake cabin in Minnesota. Which means it is closed up in the winter and not heated. I have a concrete slab floor. Can I lay vinyl plank on that, or will the temperature variation from summer 90 degrees to winter minus 20 degrees cause the vinyl problems due to expansion and contraction....or since it is floating will it just move on the edge perimeter of the flooring? If it won't work do you have flooring that will work in these conditions.1 answer
All of our flooring products are designed to be installed in climate controlled environment.

Gaucher disease
Gaucher disease is a rare genetic disorder that results in accumulation of fatty molecules called cerebrosides. It can have serious effects on numerous body organs including the liver, spleen, bones, and central nervous system. Treatments based on molecular biology are becoming available, but are very expensive.
Gaucher disease was first described by the French physician Philippe Gaucher in 1882. It is the most common of a class of diseases called lysosomal storage diseases, each of which is characterized by the accumulation of a specific chemical substance (a different substance depending on the exact disease). Gaucher disease is characterized by a wide array of different symptoms and the severity of the disease ranges from undetectable to lethal.
Three forms of the disease are recognized: Types I, II, and III. Type I is by far the most common and shows the mildest symptoms. It is non-neuronopathic, meaning that the nervous system is not attacked. The onset of Type I can occur at any age in childhood or adult life, with the average age of onset at about 21 years. Some affected individuals have no symptoms throughout adult life. Type II, the infantile form, accounts for less than 1% of patients with Gaucher disease. It is neuronopathic (attacks the nervous system); nervous system effects are severe, and victims often die within the first year of life. Type III most often has its onset during childhood and has some of the features of both the adult and infantile forms. This affects less than 5% of persons with Gaucher disease.
Gaucher disease is caused by the absence, or near absence, of activity of an enzyme called glucocerebrosidase (GC). The normal action of GC is to break down a common molecule called glucocerebroside. If not broken down, glucocerebroside accumulates in certain cells to levels that can cause damage, especially in the spleen, liver, and bone. The common link among these organs is that they house a cell type called a macrophage. A macrophage is a large cell that surrounds and consumes a foreign substance (such as bacteria) in the body. The cellular structures in which glucocerebroside accumulates are called lysosomes.

Krakow as a city wrapped in countless legends does have plenty of hidden gems, off-the-beaten-path spots & places. Some of them marvellous, some charming, some a bit scary but all having this "something" which makes people want to see it (but usually people don't know where to look or are so close but they don't even realize). I have prepared a list of 10 Krakow's unique gems, hidden in the city, most of them unmentioned... Read More

Team FMF Makita Suzuki Off Road got a small vacation during the hottest months of summer, but that doesn't mean they relaxed. These heroes trained hard in order to come back for the second ½ of the season ready to dominate. Team riders Josh Strang and Charlie Mullins spent a considerable amount of time on the west coast training in the heat with legendary coach/trainer/mentor Rodney Smith. The boys also took in WORCS and AMA Western Hare Scrambles races, which they both lead for a while before dropping back in order to not interfere with the championship points in those series. Then Josh headed home to Australia where he took two top ten finishes in the Australian Outdoor Motocross Nationals. Meanwhile, JP Davis, the junior member of the team took a WORCS Pro 2 victory and closed in on the title in that series.
With the second ½ of the season coming up the team is stronger and healthier then ever. Josh Strang sits second in the GNCC points with 201 points and four victories so far this season. Right behind him is Charlie Mullins with 197 and one victory. Tune in on the VERSUS network to see which of these two Makita Suzuki warriors will win the GNCC Championship. JP Davis sits third in the WORCS Pro 2 title hunt with 158 points and two victories with two more races to go in this series.
Team FMF Makita Suzuki Off Road Highlights
Joshua Strang 2nd in GNCC point's standings with 201/4 wins with 4 races left
Charlie Mullins 3rd in GNCC points standing with 197/1 win with 4 races to go
JP Davis 3rd in WORCS Pro 2 standings with 158/2 wins with 2 races left

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) |
Director: Vacant
Phone: (406) 497-6260
Fax: (406) 497-6328
Began in 1990-91 under the Superfund program with a grant from Atlantic Richfield Company (ARCO), the Butte-Silver Bow Geographic Information System (GIS) Department is charged with providing timely and accurate GIS information to all Butte-Silver Bow Local Government departments, as well as various state, federal, and private entities. A large part of the information provided is in the form of hard copy maps, which are generated using ARCInfo GIS software then plotted on an inkjet plotter. In answering the often asked question, "What is GIS?", the textbook definition of GIS according to the Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI), (the company that created ArcInfo), is as follows:
"An organized collection of computer hardware, software, geographic data, and personnel designed to efficiently capture, store, update, manipulate, analyze, and display all forms of geographically referenced information."
Data or information used to plot maps are derived from a variety of sources. Various scale plan metrics (or topology) for features such as roads, streams, railroads, building roof prints, contours, transmission lines, etc., are produced from aerial photography, which has been photogrammetrically processed by various commercial vendors or by state or federal government mapping agencies.
Political and administrative boundaries such as fire districts, legislative boundaries, precinct boundaries, and commissioner districts are created by digitizing the original hard copy maps and using the recorded legal boundary descriptions for reference.
At the heart of Butte-Silver Bow, lies the ownership or land records data. Land records data, known also as the cadastral or ownership base, have long been generated using existing Montana Department of Revenue parcel base maps, mining claims maps, and property legal descriptions. Information about each parcel is contained in the Montana Department of Revenue's Computer Assisted Mass Appraisal System (CAMA or CAMA) data, which is updated on a regular basis. The CAMA data provides owner name, address, property type, building information, and much more. To download the data for Butte-Silver Bow, follow this link to the State, choose DATA, then choose CAMA. You will see a directory of counties in Montana. Choose Silverbow. State CAMA data.
In combination with the CAMA data described above, the land records data is used for both mapping purposes showing information and for producing reports listing information, such as ownership, addresses, assessed valuation, building information, zoning, and so on. Acquisition of this data was driven by the necessity for Butte-Silver Bow, along with ARCO and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), to be able to identify properties affected by or affecting Superfund sites. BSB GIS has completed digital land records for all the urban area and a good share of the neighboring communities and rural areas in Silver Bow County as well as for the Anaconda-Opportunity-Warm Springs Superfund area in Deer Lodge County.
Partial List of Data Available from GIS:
- Ownership/Land records (by section) and appraisal data, mining claims
- U.S. Public Land survey - township, range, and section lines
- Zoning and Masterplan boundaries
- Floodplain (revision by FEMA pending)
- Topologic features (roads, hydrography, buildings, railroads, contours, wooded areas, etc.)
- Administrative and political boundaries (fire districts, legislative districts, precincts, school districts, commissioner districts, etc.)
- Superfund (waste dumps, reclaimed areas, soil sampling sites/data monitoring wells, mine shafts, operable unit boundaries, etc.)
- Parks and recreation
- Infrastructure (water mains, sanitary and storm sewer lines - work in progress)
- Vegetative cover, Digital Elevation Models (DEMs)
- Soils data (not yet completed for Silver Bow County)
- 1990 Census data
- Miscellaneous other data (ask, we may have it)
All of the data listed above carries with it relevant attributes or information in database format; thus the data can be extracted and/or spatially analyzed for display purposes and/or for supplying a digital or hard copy report. In addition, BSB GIS has a Global Positioning System (GPS) with which the location of any feature(s) on the ground can be collected and entered into the GIS, and ultimately mapped and/or analyzed.

Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) of a male and female engaged in sexual intercourse, sagittal view. The uterus and vaginal canal are colored brown and the penis and testicles are colored pink. In this frame the penis has reentered the vagina, and the glans of the penis is pushing the posterior wall of the vaginal canal up to the cervix and uterus. The erect penis bends and flexes upward as it penetrates far up into the vaginal canal. Swelling and tightening occur in the outer vaginal walls, while the inner two thirds expand slightly; the uterus becomes elevated. In combination with vaginal moistening, these actions work together to accommodate and seize the thrusting penis - all in preparation for receiving sperm.

FTC Resources for Reporters
Made in the USA Claims
For most products, unless they are automobiles or items made from textile or wool, there is no law requiring manufacturers and marketers to make a "Made in USA" claim. But if a business chooses to make the claim, the FTC's Made in USA standard applies. Made in USA means that "all or virtually all" the product has been made in America. That is, all significant parts, processing, and labor that go into the product must be of U.S. origin. Products should not contain any – or should contain only negligible – foreign content. The FTC's Enforcement Policy Statement and its business guide, Complying with the Made in USA Standard, spell out the details, with examples of situations when domestic origin claims would be accurate and when they would be inappropriate.

- Marketer of Outdoor Accessories Agrees to Drop Made-in-the-USA Claims 10/21/2013
- Manufacturer Settles with FTC for Making Misleading Made-in-the-USA Claims 7/20/2009

Perfect Beach chair!
We are getting this chair for our daughters boyfriend for Christmas. They love our chairs (have had them for a couple years) and the new style is even nicer with the cooler!
October 14, 2013
Excellent chair!
I bought 2 of these chairs for my husband and I to take on our beach trip. We have never owned our own beach chairs so I wanted to invest in some that were nice and could last for a long time. These chairs were just that! We love all the extra pockets and the fact that you can lay all the way back in them. They are very comfortable to sit in all day and be beach bums! The ability to wear them on your back is very convenient and allowed us to carry more things at once. We read reviews on how it was hard to close them, but after a few tries, we got it. It was funny to ask someone else to close them up and watch them struggle lol. I would definitely recommend buying these chairs!

Love this chair! Comfortable and stylish.
I bought this as a birthday gift for my husband and he absolutely loves it! He especially likes that it can lean all the way back...as if you're lying down. The cooler feature and cup holders add extra convenience. Highly recommend.

Great chair!
I bought this for my daughter for her birthday. God only knows why she wanted this for a Sept. birthday but, you get what your kids ask for. She loves it. It is oversized and durable. The color was awesome. I think if taken care of it will last for a lot of Summers. Well package and fast delivery.

Cheery, roomy, lightweight, carries all
I've bought so many beach chairs, but finally, I found a chair that is easy to carry, like a backpack, it is roomy in the seat, the carry sack on the back holds everything I need for the beach, the softball game, and a place for my 'sippy cup'. I keep my chair in my car so that even when I'm visiting friends at a party, I know I have a place to sit and relax. One of the best features, is the full recline. It's nice to lay back, look at the sky, listen to nature, and drift off. Tommy, you never disappoint!
September 21, 2013
Very comfortable! Easy to carry!
We are very pleased with our chairs! Very comfortable and easy to carry!
Seem to be well built!
We will be buying at least 3 more before spring.
September 21, 2013
Every now and then a product come along that is well thought out.
We had these in a condo we stayed in in Maui. After struggling for years with awkward, clumsy chairs we found these gems. I used to leave the chairs behind given all the other stuff that we carted to the beach. These things actually make it easier because they can double as a backpack. I live that they are loaded with the important little features, like an insulated pocket, headrest and arm pockets for your phone, camera, beverage, etc. With all the junk out there today it is really refreshing to find a product that is to beach chair what Kleenex is to tissue. Well, done TB!

The ugliest hostel room we ve ever stayed in. When they made that picture album they 'forgot' to include the rooms that don t have an actual window and look more like a storage room... The staff barely speaks english. As for the location, the city is so small that wherever you find a place is sure to be quite central. ..really disappointing, try to find another place to stay, or at least specify that you don t wanna stay on the top floor. It kinda ruined our trip mood.

Alice Munro Biography
Alice Munro was born in 1931 in Wingham, a small town in southwestern
Ontario, to a family of small farmers. She began writing stories at the age of
12. She won a two-year scholarship to the University of Western Ontario.
While at school she published several short stories in the student literary
magazine. She left before graduating due to money troubles, and in order
to marry another student, James Munro. The Munros raised three daughters and for
several years ran a bookshop in Victoria; they eventually divorced and Alice
Munro married Gerald Fremlin, a geographer. The Fremlins divide their time
between Clinton, Ontario--not far from Munro's hometown of Wingham--and Comox,
British Columbia.

Although Bonnema remembers being awake during surgery, she said she was not aware of what the surgeon was doing. Elisevich gave several reports during the six-hour operation to Bonnema's husband, Brent, and her children, Brandon, 20 and Brittany, 18.
After the surgery, Bonnema's speech was garbled at first, and she was unable to open her right eye for three months. With time and rehabilitation therapy, she regained her ability to speak clearly and her eye function returned.
"The brain doesn't particularly like me, nor does it like any surgeon," explained Elisevich. "Any slight perturbation of the cortex, the gray mantle of the brain, or the white matter underneath it kind of leaves their footprint there for a time. The white matter in particular has to recover from that."
Elisevich said he will monitor Bonnema's other lesions. If she continues to be seizure-free for a period of time, she may be able to reduce and eventually stop taking her epilepsy medication.
"That's great," Bonnema said. "I'll have more energy."
In the meantime, she has returned to her job at Clark Home. She is again taking two-mile walks at lunch time, and her kids are expecting her water-ski again.
"It's amazing," she said. "It really is."

This next story is an emotional one and the perfect ones -- Christmas season five years ago doctors told our next guest that he would never walk again.
I'm Christmas -- -- -- was involved in the deadly car crash an older driver spun out of control crashing into his family's SUV killing of his father.
And his brother seventeen year old girlfriend.
-- was left paralyzed from the waist down but he never stopped living his life and believing that he would walk again.
And now in two weeks guess what he's gonna do.
He's -- -- -- the I don't unassisted and its own wedding.
Joining -- -- this morning -- Miller and his fiance Haley -- and so honored to meet both of you what a wonderful story with such tragic beacons.
I know that you went -- such immense pain of losing these two people that were so close to you and then you were so injured.
But you say it was your mental capacity.
That kept you going in what way.
For me mainly it was.
Really just hold on my faith -- in the whole time and that's like a lot of people that.
Probably -- -- here in the story for the first time can think I don't know if I could get through that and for me every day -- about waking up in the morning and just praying to god that he's gonna give me a different future than.
Then when I was being told at that time and and you know I had so many ups and downs and a really long road but it it really just came back to that perseverance and been holding on my faith.
So this was five years ago we're watching video -- now going through rehab.
Three years ago you also went to the University of Michigan and walked out using canes and it was sent to honor your brother right.
Yeah we just Timonen and it was a really huge goal -- set at the time because I had been walking in a -- leg brace.
At -- time we have set that goal while.
Eight months before and led the team out then and got down to where I was just using canes and -- -- -- -- Keep in mind folks if you're watching this right now this young man was given a 1% chance of ever walking again.
Look at how the -- -- respond.
Right around this time you met this beautiful woman was sitting next to me Haley how did you guys meet.
Well it started out and.
I was living and and Toledo and he had just posted that he was -- -- around going to this benefit to support.
This boy who had cancer and I just kind of responded and said okay I'll be around -- leaking well and he sent me a message that came out pick -- up and and that lending again that little bit up.
And that was it now you are going to be getting married it's two weeks away and most people would be you know -- -- just -- -- -- such -- -- -- -- your goal -- to do a lot.

Walking out to to wait for alias on.
On -- wedding day and walk out there.
I'm an assistant unassisted.
Because today when you cannot say.
You still are using canes.
What are you gonna do in your mind to make sure that you get out there yeah.
Well the biggest.
-- That I've had is.
I had to think.
Just -- like all my strength conditioning coaches every day -- far less.
And and the guy train with a lot John Jeffrey.
Every day they try to convince me I shouldn't be afraid of -- -- be afraid of of all these things that are floating to remind -- having to think about.
Each step I take and it's really been about more about train my mind to just naturally walk rather than.

Wait. So if Arthur Conan Doyle existed in the Sherlock Universe, WHO DID HE WRITE ABOUT? Also if it is well known enough to put in the lead in that means John is sure to have read at least one of the novellas.

so... there were some comments regarding the 11th Doctors second companion (outside of the specials and River...who is a special case) to be portraied by Jenna-Louise Coleman... more specifically there were a number of Nerdfighers who were hoping she'd turn out to be from a different time or even be an alien. thought we could all talk about this one here and maybe more easily come back to it a season down the road and see how we like the results, in comparison.
personally i have mixed feelings. from my limmited knowledge of the classic series, i'm pretty sure the majority of not only recent companions, but companions in general, have been contemporaries of the era of the show... and human. as one of our fellows pointed out, this has some advantages with them rooted (more or less) in our world/time.
at the same time, anyone who has followed the show (or gone back) has been seeing today's people of earth more or less reflected and reflecting (in) the series. it might be interesting to see more of the past, future, other worlds and even (or maybe especially) the present through another very different pair of eyes (for a while.)
what do you think?
Most Companions have been contemporary--in fact, this was controversial among the first few production teams. In Season 3 (First Doctor) they killed off Katerina and Anne Chaplet in quick succession because they were from the past, and thus thought to be of less use as an audience-surrogate. But the very next production team brought in a Companion from the past who turned out to be a fan favorite and one of the longest-running Companions: Jamie McCrimmon. (pause for obligatory *squee*) Romana, a Time Lady, is another of my favorite Companions. (Also K9.)
Anyway, I'd like to see a past or alien Companion in the new series. We've come so close so many times...Jabe, Chantho, Astrid...that psychic kid from Family of Blood...yes, I hope the new Companion is from the past or another planet.
I think that the new companion will be from this time and this world, though i hope otherwise. I think they try to use the companion to link the show us and give it relatibilaty
I've become a fan of the two companions. Perhaps it was because I loved Rory and Amy. But I personally would like to do both. A companion from our world and our time and an alien or someone from a different time period. I would like to see an alien from a planet that, much like earth, is unaware of other species of the universe. I think that would be interesting. But then you would get a very interesting connection between the characters. I would like two companions who don't know each other.
that would be cool but also a big risk for the show. they may be scared to go that far out. though it would be amazing to have a more skewed view on humans/earth. I'm pro full alien. Imagine getting to see how other species see our world and that mixing with the doctors views.
The very early show (which I'm currently watching) usually had two or three companions at a time: Ian, Barbara, Susan; Ian, Barbara, Vicki; Steven, Vicki; Steven, Dodo; Ben, Polly; Ben, Polly, Jamie (this is where I've reached). I like the multi-Companion dynamic...especially, notice when there's three Companions, at least one is from a different time period (Susan is a Time Lady, Vicki and Steven are from the future, Jamie from the past). I think they could do it again for the nostalgia, at least; I don't think it's a risk.
I think a non contemporary or non earthly character could provide an interesting different view on contemporary life on earth. We would still be able to relate to that.
Agreed! And aliens could still be human-looking (cf. Romana, Turlough, Nyssa...) if they didn't want to go too far out on a limb.
I don't have much knowledge of the classic series either but I like the companions being human because I can relate to them more and most of their reactions are funnier compared to aliens who already know about the universe. I would also love to see a lot more of other worlds and/or in the past. I know it is easiest to film the present but I really love when they go someplace completely new to the viewers or even just me. And I don't know much about Jenna-Louis Coleman but I am very excited to get to learn a new face and personality in the show an I am wondering how the Doctor will pick her up :)
How about an alien from a planet where they don't know about the universe.. like earth.. but not earth..
yeah that would be cool also :) I just like to have to companion someone that I can relate to at least a little bit. Because everything The Doctor does and knows just goes right over my head and I like to see how the companions react to this also.
I think she'll be either from the future (like Jack, oh, my sweet, hot Jack) or from modern day UK. I understand that. Most of the audience is from today's UK and I can't blame them for not making her a 18 year old, redhead nerd from Bosnia and Herzegovina. That would make me really, really happy but I doubt that she would be a relatable character. They can make her, either a human looking alien or Time Lady. I doubt that she'll be a Time Lady because that would mean that the Doctor is not the last one and I think Moffat likes the idea of him being alone. They can't make her an alien looking alien because that would just be weird and unpractical.
I think she'll be really, really smart. I mean Sherlock Holmes smart. I would like to see that but I just hope she doesn't fall in love with the Doctor. Girls, hold you hormones. He's 900 years old. I never really liked the romance part of the show, with the exception of Amy and Rory. Doctor is one of the rare characters that I don't ship with anyone.
I would like to see a nerdy companion, obsessed with space and aliens. I don't know why, but I think that would be really cool. Fandom might just go boom!

Recipe by Chef John
"If you're looking for a new addition to your holiday dessert table, I hope you give this a try. Enjoy!"
Watch video tips and tricks
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup dark molasses
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup boiling water
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
Very easy and not too sweet - perfect with a scoop of ice cream. If the cake sank in the middle it was either under cooked - check with a tooth pick in the center or your batter was too wet. Mine took exactly 35 minutes.
It was too much molasses for us. It was just okay. I would not make it again. I had the same problem like some of the other reviews, it sank in the middle, not a lot, but did just a bit. But it was not undercooked in the middle or anything like that. I kept it 6 minutes longer than the recipe said but likely that is just my oven.
21 Ratings
Not quite sure what to rate it. The taste is fantastic but the cake was sunken in the middle and it was very crumbly... Updated: I live at 6000ft and I believe that the ingredient combination here is rather difficult for high altitude. I tried the Favorite Old Fashioned Gingerbread recipe from here also and that worked at over 7000 ft. So, if you live at high altitudes, I might suggest using the proportions in that recipe and the adjust the spices according to your tastes.
Brilliant! Not too sweet, and the glaze is amazing. Made according to recipe and it turned out great.
For me, there was just too much molasses, if I make this again I will half it. Otherwise good flavor.
Awesome :)
Ilove this simple recipe. I will change this-no boiling water, no molasses, no spice except almond extract- 1/8 tea. 2 tablespoons dry ground ginger, fresh Tumeric in grinder 6 tablespoons. MMM.
Is perfect!!! my kids loved it, is not to sweet. I did it just like the recipe says and it didn't sank. I cut the molasses a little. Jus a great cake and easy to make!!!

Getting to the BOTTOM of it!
21 September 2007
I know what you're thinking! The songs are probably going through your mind as you read... fat bottom girls... I like big butts... let me see you shake a tail feather. Well let me tell you - butts are no joking matter. And I don't intend for this article to be the butt of any jokes. Well not intentionally anyway. You see, in the animal world, butts, bottoms, backsides, behinds, tails and the likes are deadly serious. In fact in many cases, they are critical to an animal's survival. Let me explain.The cut, curvaceous bottom you see depicted on Minibus, one of our beautiful Common Wombats is in fact a killer butt. Yes, I know that many of you would agree this is a great butt, but that's not what I'm talking about. The Wombat has an incredibly hard cartridge plate which spans its back from the hips down. Not only does this plate protect the valuable cargo of a developing joey in the pouch underneath the female Wombat, it can also serve as a door to its underground burrow. This area has very few nerve endings and this coupled with the hard plate, makes it extremely difficult for a predator to get a grip of the wombat and drag it from its burrow. But getting back to the killer butt. The often mistakenly thought slowness of the Wombat is put to the test if a predator manages to get over the Wombat's bottom. The Wombat will lower its bottom to the ground and with such lightning speed you would miss the action if you blinked, will thrust it's backside up towards the top of the burrow in an effort to immobilize its predator. Wombats have been known to crush the skull of medium sized carnivores with the pressure applied from such a butt slam, as well as suffocate an animal the size of a dog by holding its head between its bottom and the top of the burrow roof. Now that's what I call a killer butt!!
However, it's not only the Wombat that has a valuable little asset in its bottom. Let me give you some examples:-
The Koala, the Wombat's distant, but closest living relative has a similar cartilage plate, which also has very few nerve endings, therefore desensitizing the area. This acts like a built in recliner, ensuring that the Koala does not suffer the effects of a numb bottom from the 20 odd hours of stationery tree sitting that it does each day.
The Eastern Blue Tongue Lizard has a long, tapered tail. Like many Skinks, the small back yard garden variety probably being the easily recognizable, the Blue Tongue is able to 'throw' it's tail if threatened. The muscles along the length of the tail from the tip to just below the back legs are loosely knitted from a molecular perspective. Simply put - this means that if sufficient pressure is applied to the tail, the lizard is able to release the bottom most part of its tail. The body is designed to then quickly cut off the blood supply to the tail where it dislodges from. Mother Nature in her constant wisdom then goes one step further to ensure these little guys have the best possible chance of survival. The nerve endings in the released portion of the tail will continue to move in response to the release, acting as a decoy for the attacking animal. While the predator is potentially occupied with the moving tail end, the lizard has the opportunity to move safely away from danger and certain death.
The Shingle Back Lizard on the other hand has a tail that looks remarkably like its head. Now that's enough butt head jokes. When will you people learn? Unfortunately the poor old Shingle Back Lizard has not been graced with speed. Its body is long and large, with a great span between 2 sets of short legs. So this is where the oddly head like looking tail comes in handy. Many predators will attack the head in order to kill an animal quickly. By having a tail that looks a little like it's head, the Shingle Back increases its chances of surviving. It has a 50/50 chance of its predator attacking its tail rather than its head. The point to this you ask? Well like the Eastern Blue Tongue Lizard, the Shingle Back Lizard, also a part of the Skink family is able to release or throw the bottom half of its tail when under attack. Like the Blue Tongue Lizard, this gives the Shingle Back a chance to move away from its predator and hopefully live to see another day.
Question. Have you ever wondered why the Willy Wag Tail wags his tail so eloquently and with such persistence? It's all in the name of love, of course. The male with the ability to shake his tail feathers most effectively wins the heart of the female Willy Wag Tail. His prowess at wagging his tail during the courting dance not only lets the female know that he is truly committed to the cause of securing her as a mate, but also demonstrates his proficiency as a potential protector of both her and their future young. Once the courting is over and the serious business of raising a family begins, the male will use the technique of wagging his tail as a decoy to detract any attention away from his nearby mate. Love and chivalry is alive and well in the animal kingdom and with some thanks to a cute little backside.
So you see... bottoms, butt, backsides, behinds, tails and the like are not always as they seem. So next time you ponder the beauty of one of our amazing native or exotic animals, take the time to check out their bottom, however obvious or unobvious it may seem, and see if you can recognize the secret and perhaps critical role it plays in the animal's survival. Trust me, you'll never look at a butt in the same way again!

Under law introduced by the EU, when a commercial agent has its agency terminated, it is entitled to compensation.
Recently, a case arose in which the agency of a commercial agent was terminated by a designer in 2005 and a compensation claim was made by the agent. What complicated matters was that the agency agreement, which had existed for many years, was made when the agent was a partnership. The agency had subsequently incorporated its business in 2003. Under UK law, a company is a separate legal person from its shareholders.
When the change in ownership was made, the businesses carried on dealing with one another as before without any difficulty until the decision was made to sever relations.
The company brought a claim for compensation. This was successfully opposed on the basis that the company had never entered into an agency agreement with the designer, so it could not bring the claim. The partnership could bring a claim, however, because it had assigned the benefit of the contract to the company.
The company argued that because the notice of termination sent by the designer's solicitors was addressed to the company, the designer was 'estopped' from arguing that it was not the company that held the contract.
The notice was clearly wrongly addressed, but the court ruled that it had been treated by both sides as terminating the agreement. Because the law applying to the commencement of a claim for compensation for termination of an agency requires the claim to be commenced within a year of the termination, the partnership was 'out of time' for commencing a claim.
The partnership should have arranged for its contract to be replaced by a new contract with the company: this is called 'novation' by lawyers.

I made this charger when I ordered some electronic parts and received a 120 to 12 volt AC transformer with center tap. Sending it back would have cost as much as the transformer. Similar transformers can be found at places like Radio Shack. The transformer puts out about 3 Amps., so it is ideal as a trickle charger. A charge will require about 12 hours. But, it has gotten me out of several jambs. Some friends have also borrowed it when their batteries were dead and it worked for them.
The center tap allowed the output to be either 6 or 12 volts. At the time I made this charger I helped to maintain an older farm tractor with a 6 volt electrical system.
Note: The output of the transformer is actually about 13.4 volts. When the voltage passes through the diodes in the rectifier it drops 0.6 volt for each of two diodes to roughly 12 volts. If you look for a 12 volt transformer you may at first be frustrated because you can find only 13.4 volt transformers.
Step 1: The circuit and what you need
I used a piece of plywood for a base. I already had a double pole toggle switch. I used a piece of scrap aluminum cabinet angle to mount the switch. Any piece of aluminum or steel could be bent to do the job. I used a 4 Amp. bridge rectifier from Radio Shack. I also got aligator clips already connected to a cord to connect to the auto battery. This was also from Radio Shack. The AC cord and plug came from a neighbor's discarded televison set that was put out on the curb on garbage day. You will need some screws, soldering iron, and a hot glue gun.
1-40 of 111 | Next » |
and i have a transformer with 12v output, can i use a 6A05 diode (i have 4 6A05 Diodes) to make a car battery charger?
A bridge rectifier smooths AC current when converting it to DC quite a bit. Batteries charge better if the current is a little choppy. Some early battery powered screwdrivers used an AC charging transformer with one simple diode between the transformer and the batteries. It was cheap, but it also lengthened the charging time by using only one half of the sine wave. You can assemble and use a bridge rectifier with four diodes and it will work.
I see three tabs with solder. Is the transformer a center tap style that would produce a lower voltage between the center tab and one of the outside tabs? (Check with a voltmeter.)
i m new here
i wanted to ask that i have a 6v 4.5 ah SLA battery,can i charge it using 12 v dc transformer with a bridge rectifier?
Looking forward for your suggestion.
If your transformer's output is DC current, you do not need to add a bridge rectifier. A bridge rectifier converts the current from AC to DC, and your transformer's output is already DC.
But, 12 volts is too much for charging a 6 volt battery. You need to reduce the voltage to 6 volts or 7 volts. (I think someone said batteries charge better if the charger's voltage is just a little above the battery being charged, but not too much.)
You can reduce the voltage to the battery in several ways. One would be two resistors in series to make a voltage splitter. But, the resistors will need to be able to handle the power to be dissipated without becoming so hot that they fail. You could also make a voltage regulator from an LM317 variable voltage regulator chip. But, this chip can handle only 1.5 amps at most, and that is with a heat sink. There are many Instructables on using an LM317 chip. A lot depends on the current output of your 12 volt transformer. If it is too high, an LM317 chip would burn up and fail. You could also drop the voltage by stringing together a chain of diodes properly aligned for polarity. Each diode will drop the voltage around 0.5 to 0.6 volt. But, the current flowing in the circuit would need to be lower than the maximum tolerated by each diode so that they do not burn out.
The best would be to find a transformer with an output of about 6 to 7 volts DC.
I added a switch to the line cord so I can turn on/off the transformer as well.
I have it hooked up to a 2 speed 12v fan I got in K-Mart.
This allows me to get 4 speeds out of the fan.
Fan set to high, transformer set to 12v then 6v so that's 2.
Fan set to low, transformer set to 12v then 6v so that's 2 more.
Its nice to have air moving when ya sleep.
If you have a low voltage AC transformer you could connect its output to one set of leads and see what you read out on the other set. That would give you a pretty good clue about which set of leads goes to the primary and which goes to the secondary.
I cannot see the end of the red word in the phot to know what it's end looks like. Is it like the black and the white?
Black - White = 1.2
Black - Red = 1.2
Red - White = 1.2
The red, blue, and brown all have female spade connectors, but they have a clear boot on them.
I just realized my multi-meter is just like your red one used in some of your instructables. I had it set on 200Ω.
Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it, especially since I'm extremely an amateur at this, but I like to learn.
I did find an article on the Internet for people who work with antique radios and may have several old unmarked transformers in their parts bin. It gives some guidance, although there still may be some guessing involved. Just click on the hot link in this reply.
I think the safest thing to do would be to find an AC transformer for charging an old battery powered tool that uses 120 volts in and gives out around 9 volts AC. Attach the 9 volts AC to the blue and brown leads. Take a reading on the red and black leads. See if it is around 1 volt. That is not enough to hurt you or the transformer. (Of course, if my suspicions are backwards, the red and black wires would have around 90 volts coming out of them.) The test transformer needs to be AC rather than DC because transformers do not work with DC current.
I have a 6/12v combo charger, meaning, I can set the charger to charge 6 volt or 12 volt lead acid batteries. I want to charge a 6 v - 4.5ah sealed lead acid battery. The chargers 6 volt setting is set for "6v-6amp" charging. Is it ok to use to charge my 6v - 4ah s.l.a. battery with this charger?
i have a 12volts 3.5 amps regulated smps adapter..
can i use it to charge my motorcycle lead acid battery,,?thats 12volts2.5 AH.?
also i have confusion how much currrent will flow through the circuit..,, i know that the 3.5 amps ooutput of my adapter means that it can supply currents upto this,, but how do i controle the current..?
and at what point do i stop charging ,, i mean at what battery voltae level should i stop.,,, if my battery is unloaded..?
As regards knowing when the battery is fully charged, you could get a hygrometer made for measuring the specific gravity of the battery acid, unless the battery is sealed. Do you need the battery to be fully charged, or just charged enough to start the motorcycle? The motorcycle's own charging system should complete the charging if you go for a long ride. I would think you can know when the battery is pretty well charged by trial and error. After an attempt or two you should have a pretty good idea of how many hours are needed to charge the battery.
A fully charged 12V battery will read 12.6V with a voltmeter on open circuit with no load or charger connected to it.
