Thermodynamic system
This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2010) |
A thermodynamic system is a precisely specified macroscopic region of the universe, defined by boundaries or walls of particular natures, together with the physical surroundings of that region, which determine processes that are allowed to affect the interior of the region, studied using the principles of thermodynamics.
All space in the universe outside the thermodynamic system is known as the surroundings, the environment, or a reservoir. A system is separated from its surroundings by a boundary, which may be notional or real but, by convention, delimits a finite volume. Transfers of work, heat, or matter and energy between the system and the surroundings may take place across this boundary. A thermodynamic system is classified by the nature of the transfers that are allowed to occur across its boundary, or parts of its boundary.
A thermodynamic system has a characteristic set of thermodynamic parameters, or state variables. They are experimentally measurable macroscopic properties, such as volume, pressure, temperature, electric field, and others. The set of values of the thermodynamic parameters necessary to uniquely define a state of a system is called the thermodynamic state of a system. The state variables of a system are normally related by one or more functional relationships, the equations of state. In equilibrium thermodynamics, the state variables do not include fluxes, because for a state of thermodynamic equilibrium, all fluxes have zero values, by definition. Equilibrium thermodynamics allows processes which of course involve fluxes, but these must have ceased by the time a thermodynamic process or operation is complete, bringing a system to its eventual thermodynamic state. Non-equilibrium thermodynamics allows its state variables to include non-zero fluxes, that describe transfers of matter or energy or entropy between a system and its surroundings.[1]
An isolated system is an idealized system that has no interaction with its surroundings. It is not customary to ask how is its state detected empirically. Ideally it is in its own internal thermodynamic equilibrium when its state does not change with time.
A system that is not isolated can be in thermodynamic equilibrium with its surroundings, according to the characters of the separating walls. Or it can be in a state constant or precisely cyclically changing in time - a steady state - that is far from equilibrium. Or it can be in a changing state that is not in thermodynamic equilibrium. Classical thermodynamics considers only states of thermodynamic equilibrium or states constant or precisely cycling in time. An interaction of system and surroundings can be by contact, for example allowing conduction of heat, or by long-range forces, such as an electric field established and maintained by the surroundings.
A thermodynamic system is a specialized conception, which does not cover all physical systems. A physical system is a far broader conception, beyond the scope of the present article. The physical existence of thermodynamic systems as strictly defined here may be considered a fundamental postulate of equilibrium thermodynamics, although such is usually not listed as a numbered law of thermodynamics.[2][3] According to Bailyn, the commonly rehearsed statement of the zeroth law of thermodynamics is a consequence of this fundamental postulate.[4]
Originally, in 1824, Sadi Carnot described a thermodynamic system as the working substance of a heat engine under study.

History / Culture
Thermodynamics describes the macroscopic physics of matter and energy, especially including heat transfer, using the concept of the thermodynamic system, a region of the universe that is under study, specified by thermodynamic state variables. As thermodynamics is concerned with the flow and balance of energy and matter, a thermodynamic system is distinguished by the kinds of transfer that may occur between it and its surroundings.
Isolated systems are completely isolated from their environment. They do not exchange energy or matter with their environment.In practice, a system can never be absolutely isolated from its environment, because there is always at least some slight coupling, such as gravitational attraction.
Closed systems are able to exchange energy (heat and work) but not matter with their environment. A greenhouse is an example of a closed system exchanging heat but not work with its environment. Whether a system exchanges heat, work or both is usually thought of as a property of its boundary.
An open system has a part of its boundary that allows transfer of energy as well as matter between it and its surroundings. A boundary part that allows matter transfer is called permeable.
An example system is the system of hot liquid water and solid table salt in a sealed, insulated test tube held in a vacuum (the surroundings). The test tube constantly loses heat in the form of black-body radiation, but the heat loss progresses very slowly. If there is another process going on in the test tube, for example the dissolution of the salt crystals, it probably occurs so quickly that any heat lost to the test tube during that time can be neglected. Thermodynamics in general does not measure time, but it does sometimes accept limitations on the time frame of a process.
The first to develop the concept of a thermodynamic system was the French physicist Sadi Carnot whose 1824 Reflections on the Motive Power of Fire studied what he called the working substance, e.g., typically a body of water vapor, in steam engines, in regards to the system's ability to do work when heat is applied to it. The working substance could be put in contact with either a heat reservoir (a boiler), a cold reservoir (a stream of cold water), or a piston (to which the working body could do work by pushing on it). In 1850, the German physicist Rudolf Clausius generalized this picture to include the concept of the surroundings, and began referring to the system as a "working body." In his 1850 manuscript On the Motive Power of Fire, Clausius wrote:
" | "With every change of volume (to the working body) a certain amount work must be done by the gas or upon it, since by its expansion it overcomes an external pressure, and since its compression can be brought about only by an exertion of external pressure. To this excess of work done by the gas or upon it there must correspond, by our principle, a proportional excess of heat consumed or produced, and the gas cannot give up to the "surrounding medium" the same amount of heat as it receives." | " |
The article Carnot heat engine shows the original piston-and-cylinder diagram used by Carnot in discussing his ideal engine; below, we see the Carnot engine as is typically modeled in current use:
In the diagram shown, the "working body" (system), a term introduced by Clausius in 1850, can be any fluid or vapor body through which heat Q can be introduced or transmitted through to produce work. In 1824, Sadi Carnot, in his famous paper Reflections on the Motive Power of Fire, had postulated that the fluid body could be any substance capable of expansion, such as vapor of water, vapor of alcohol, vapor of mercury, a permanent gas, or air, etc. Though, in these early years, engines came in a number of configurations, typically QH was supplied by a boiler, wherein water boiled over a furnace; QC was typically a stream of cold flowing water in the form of a condenser located on a separate part of the engine. The output work W was the movement of the piston as it turned a crank-arm, which typically turned a pulley to lift water out of flooded salt mines. Carnot defined work as "weight lifted through a height."
A system boundary is a real or imaginary two-dimensional closed surface that encloses or demarcates the volume or region that a thermodynamic system occupies, across which quantities such as heat, mass, or work can flow.[5] In short, a thermodynamic boundary is a geometrical division between a system and its surroundings. Topologically, it is usually considered nearly or piecewise smoothly homeomorphic with a two-sphere, because a system is usually considered simply connected.
Boundaries can also be fixed (e.g. a constant volume reactor) or moveable (e.g. a piston). For example, in a reciprocating engine, a fixed boundary means the piston is locked at its position; as such, a constant volume process occurs. In that same engine, a moveable boundary allows the piston to move in and out. Boundaries may be real or imaginary. For closed systems, boundaries are real while for open system boundaries are often imaginary. For theoretical purposes, a boundary may be declared adiabatic, isothermal, diathermal, insulating, permeable, or semipermeable—but actual physical materials that provide such idealized properties are not always readily available.
Anything that passes across the boundary that effects a change in the internal energy must be accounted for in the energy balance equation. The volume can be the region surrounding a single atom resonating energy, such as Max Planck defined in 1900; it can be a body of steam or air in a steam engine, such as Sadi Carnot defined in 1824; it can be the body of a tropical cyclone, such as Kerry Emanuel theorized in 1986 in the field of atmospheric thermodynamics; it could also be just one nuclide (i.e. a system of quarks) as hypothesized in quantum thermodynamics.
The system is the part of the universe being studied, while the surroundings is the remainder of the universe that lies outside the boundaries of the system. It is also known as the environment, and the reservoir. Depending on the type of system, it may interact with the system by exchanging mass, energy (including heat and work), momentum, electric charge, or other conserved properties. The environment is ignored in analysis of the system, except in regards to these interactions.
Open system[edit]
In open systems, matter may flow in and out of the system boundaries. The first law of thermodynamics for open systems states: the increase in the internal energy of a system is equal to the amount of energy added to the system by matter flowing in and by heating, minus the amount lost by matter flowing out and in the form of work done by the system. The first law for open systems is given by:
where Uin is the average internal energy entering the system and Uout is the average internal energy leaving the system.
The region of space enclosed by open system boundaries is usually called a control volume, and it may or may not correspond to physical walls. If we choose the shape of the control volume such that all flow in or out occurs perpendicular to its surface, then the flow of matter into the system performs work as if it were a piston of fluid pushing mass into the system, and the system performs work on the flow of matter out as if it were driving a piston of fluid. There are then, two types of work performed: flow work described above, which is performed on the fluid (this is also often called PV work) and shaft work, which may be performed on some mechanical device. These two types of work are expressed in the equation:
Substitution into the equation above for the control volume cv yields:
The definition of enthalpy, H, permits us to use this thermodynamic potential to account for both internal energy and PV work in fluids for open systems:
During steady-state operation of a device (see turbine, pump, and engine), any system property within the control volume is independent of time. Therefore, the internal energy of the system enclosed by the control volume remains constant, which implies that dUcv in the expression above may be set equal to zero. This yields a useful expression for the power generation or requirement for these devices in the absence of chemical reactions:
This expression is described by the diagram above.
Closed system[edit]
In a closed system, no mass may be transferred in or out of the system boundaries. The system always contains the same amount of matter, but heat and work can be exchanged across the boundary of the system. Whether a system can exchange heat, work, or both is dependent on the property of its boundary.
- Adiabatic boundary – not allowing any heat exchange: A thermally isolated system
- Rigid boundary – not allowing exchange of work: A mechanically isolated system
One example is fluid being compressed by a piston in a cylinder. Another example of a closed system is a bomb calorimeter, a type of constant-volume calorimeter used in measuring the heat of combustion of a particular reaction. Electrical energy travels across the boundary to produce a spark between the electrodes and initiates combustion. Heat transfer occurs across the boundary after combustion but no mass transfer takes place either way.
Beginning with the first law of thermodynamics for an open system, this is expressed as:
where U is internal energy, Q is the heat added to the system, W is the work done by the system, and since no mass is transferred in or out of the system, both expressions involving mass flow are zero and the first law of thermodynamics for a closed system is derived. The first law of thermodynamics for a closed system states that the increase of internal energy of the system equals the amount of heat added to the system minus the work done by the system. For infinitesimal changes the first law for closed systems is stated by:
If the work is due to a volume expansion by dV at a pressure P than:
For a homogeneous system, in which only reversible processes can take place, the second law of thermodynamics reads:
where T is the absolute temperature and S is the entropy of the system. With these relations the fundamental thermodynamic relationship, used to compute changes in internal energy, is expressed as:
For a simple system, with only one type of particle (atom or molecule), a closed system amounts to a constant number of particles. However, for systems undergoing a chemical reaction, there may be all sorts of molecules being generated and destroyed by the reaction process. In this case, the fact that the system is closed is expressed by stating that the total number of each elemental atom is conserved, no matter what kind of molecule it may be a part of. Mathematically:
where Nj is the number of j-type molecules, aij is the number of atoms of element i in molecule j and bi0 is the total number of atoms of element i in the system, which remains constant, since the system is closed. There is one such equation for each element in the system.
Isolated system[edit]
An isolated system is more restrictive than a closed system as it does not interact with its surroundings in any way. Mass and energy remains constant within the system, and no energy or mass transfer takes place across the boundary. As time passes in an isolated system, internal differences in the system tend to even out and pressures and temperatures tend to equalize, as do density differences. A system in which all equalizing processes have gone practically to completion is in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium.
Truly isolated physical systems do not exist in reality (except perhaps for the universe as a whole), because, for example, there is always gravity between a system with mass and masses elsewhere.[6][7][8][9][10] However, real systems may behave nearly as an isolated system for finite (possibly very long) times. The concept of an isolated system can serve as a useful model approximating many real-world situations. It is an acceptable idealization used in constructing mathematical models of certain natural phenomena.
In the attempt to justify the postulate of entropy increase in the second law of thermodynamics, Boltzmann's H-theorem used equations, which assumed that a system (for example, a gas) was isolated. That is all the mechanical degrees of freedom could be specified, treating the walls simply as mirror boundary conditions. This inevitably led to Loschmidt's paradox. However, if the stochastic behavior of the molecules in actual walls is considered, along with the randomizing effect of the ambient, background thermal radiation, Boltzmann's assumption of molecular chaos can be justified.
The second law of thermodynamics for isolated systems states that the entropy of an isolated system not in equilibrium tends to increase over time, approaching maximum value at equilibrium. Overall, in an isolated system, the internal energy is constant and the entropy can never decrease. A closed system's entropy can decrease e.g. when heat is extracted from the system.
It is important to note that isolated systems are not equivalent to closed systems. Closed systems cannot exchange matter with the surroundings, but can exchange energy. Isolated systems can exchange neither matter nor energy with their surroundings, and as such are only theoretical and do not exist in reality (except, possibly, the entire universe).
It is worth noting that 'closed system' is often used in thermodynamics discussions when 'isolated system' would be correct - i.e. there is an assumption that energy does not enter or leave the system.
Mechanically isolated system[edit]
A mechanically isolated system can exchange no work energy with its environment, but may exchange heat energy and/or mass with its environment. The internal energy of a mechanically isolated system may therefore change due to the exchange of heat energy and mass. For a simple system, mechanical isolation is equivalent to constant volume and any process which occurs in such a simple system is said to be isochoric.
Systems in equilibrium[edit]
At thermodynamic equilibrium, a system's properties are, by definition, unchanging in time. Systems in equilibrium are much simpler and easier to understand than systems not in equilibrium. Often, when analyzing a thermodynamic process, it can be assumed that each intermediate state in the process is at equilibrium. This also considerably simplifies the analysis.
In isolated systems it is consistently observed that as time goes on internal rearrangements diminish and stable conditions are approached. Pressures and temperatures tend to equalize, and matter arranges itself into one or a few relatively homogeneous phases. A system in which all processes of change have gone practically to completion is considered in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium. The thermodynamic properties of a system in equilibrium are unchanging in time. Equilibrium system states are much easier to describe in a deterministic manner than non-equilibrium states.
In thermodynamic processes, large departures from equilibrium during intermediate steps are associated with increases in entropy and increases in the production of heat rather than useful work. It can be shown that for a process to be reversible, each step in the process must be reversible. For a step in a process to be reversible, the system must be in equilibrium throughout the step. That ideal cannot be accomplished in practice because no step can be taken without perturbing the system from equilibrium, but the ideal can be approached by making changes slowly.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- It wasn't enough that Lenny Kravitz is a big-time rock star and had a mom who was famous. He has also had some experiences few people have. Like spending time with two of the greatest football players ever. Kravitz says running legend Jim Brown was a friend of his mom, actress Roxie Roker. And while in Indianapolis, Kravitz got to chat with him again. And Kravitz used to live across the street from former New York Jets quarterback Joe Namath. And he says Namath used to play catch with him. They also had the chance to visit with each other during the NFL honors. Kravitz was among the performers at the NFL's official tailgate party at Lucas Oil Stadium before the Super Bowl yesterday.

Is a Carbon Tax a Good Idea? >
The Time Has Never Been More Right for a Carbon Tax
A carbon tax could extend the payroll tax holiday while spurring clean energy innovation
December 10, 2012
Recurring and worsening climate disasters make painfully clear that the world has just a few decades, if that, to leave carbon-based energy behind. But no modern economy can do that unless prices of fuels tell the truth about the climate damage they cause. This is best done by aggressively taxing the carbon content of coal, oil, and natural gas, with the levies placed "upstream" where the fuels are taken from the ground.
That's a carbon tax: straightforward, transparent, no gimmicks, no loopholes. Unlike cap-and-trade, a carbon tax creates no new markets; rather, it embeds price signals in existing fuel markets that will spur innovation and reward the rapid uptake of clean energy. Moreover, making the tax revenue-neutral will prevent it from adding to the size of government.
With the anti-science far right losing traction in Washington, and with the nation reeling from "extreme weather" events like the 2011-2012 droughts and the recent Superstorm Sandy, Americans appear ready for climate action. Fortuitously, a carbon tax is perfectly suited to handle an overlooked but key piece of the "fiscal cliff"—the impending expiration of the two-year payroll tax "holiday."
[See a collection of political cartoons on energy policy.]
The Carbon Tax Center estimates that a carbon tax pegged at just $18 per ton of carbon dioxide would generate $95 billion a year—enough to pay to extend the payroll tax holiday beyond its December 31 expiration and thereby help keep the fragile economic recovery from imploding. That tax is relatively small (equivalent to 17 cents on a gallon of gas and just under a penny per kilowatt-hour of electricity), so its climate impact would be modest. But the reductions in carbon emissions will cascade if the tax is ramped up, year by year; indeed, the mere expectation of rising prices for coal, oil, and gas will go far to drive an across-the-board transition to renewable and efficient energy.
To protect energy-intensive industries, carbon tax legislation should include "border tax adjustments" on imports, pegged to their untaxed carbon contents. These tariffs will incentivize our trading partners to impose their own carbon taxes so that the tax revenues flow to them, not the U.S. Treasury.
A carbon tax is so necessary and manageable that its adoption isn't a matter of "if" but of "when." The time has never been more right. It's up to Congress and the president to seize it.

More than fifty years ago one musical changed theater forever. Now it's back, and mesmerizing audiences once again. From the first note to the final breath, West Side Story soars as the greatest love story of all time. Directed by David Saint, using Tony Award-winning librettist Arthur Laurents' Broadway direction, West Side Story remains as powerful, poignant and timely as ever. The new Broadway cast album of West Side Story recently won the 2010 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album. The Bernstein and Sondheim score is considered to be one of Broadway's finest and features such classics of the American musical theatre as "Something's Coming," "Tonight," "America," "I Feel Pretty" and "Somewhere."
"So exciting it makes you ache with pleasure" –John Lahr, The New Yorker
Should I see it?
What Is West Side Story Like?
Considered a great groundbreaking musical, West Side Story has remained a poignant, provocative and emotionally devastating piece of theater for over half a century. Dark in tone and content, the show is flush with many of legendary composer Leonard Bernstein's most famous compositions ...

Electric standby capability is built-in, allowing haulers to tap into electric power supplies to run the system when parked, providing quiet, emissions-free refrigeration performance that can reduce operating costs by up to 70 percent compared to diesel operations, while conserving fuel for the highway.

What is the status of these plug-ins?
Too add
Can I use these plug-ins to build playlists?
Yes! I recently learned how to use the resolveurl properly in plug-ins so all these should be updated to work correctly when building playlists. Also all shows or episodes served as multi-segments are now stacked instead of making a playlist of them. XBMC treats them as a single item.
Which XBMC should I use?
How do I install the repo
Download this zip and the in the Add ons section of XBMC choose install from zip.
I found a problem. what do I do?
report the issue to the google code project and I will try to fix it.
Please post debug logs, xbmc build version, addon version and platform.

I didn't grab it from anywhere. I am working off the base of the XML feed version maruchan posted in the dev thread and applying my patches. It isn't really ready for mass consumption. If other people who have hulu plus accounts want to try out the HD feeds then I will commit a version. I don't want to try to support other people using it yet. It isn't really useful to non plus members yet anyway. Except maybe the limelight cdn fix.
I looked through my old project directory and found a spike tv video plugin I abandoned because it used swf verify. I got it working again with a couple small updates. It still has a couple things to fix but all the full episodes work. It is spike though so not always the best content. I plan to clean it up a little more and commit it. |

abfmdf: CBS has proxy support in its settings.
mtv network does not have proxy support. It has region locked videos for different regions though. so some videos in the us are locked out. I am not sure what region they are authorized for though. The Daily Show - i had some reports on its support thread of it working in other regions but haven't really had anyone report to me any problems they had so I can't improve support. South Park Studios: i have had reports it works in Netherlands but not in Canada. The Colbert Report, Yahoo Music Videos - I have had zero feedback from these two plug-ins. This thread was my first time releasing these. so you can try them and tell me if they work. I can add proxy settings to all of them if that's what people want. There are several cases when it isn't needed though. It only uses the proxy for its interaction with the site and not streaming the media. In most cases the smil(Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language) file is served with geo protection but the rtmp server is completely unlocked. In other cases they rely on a separate url that a flash client will return a result from. Like in the case of NBC Universal they geo protect their media with a simple connection to a server that returns a region code. You use this region code when connecting to the AMF gateway to get the smil url. So here you can simply lie about your region to the AMF gateway and it doesn't seem to mind.

abfmdf: did you try the proxy settings in CBS? if you don't mind I would like a little more detail.
Jopplehead: pre-dharma only right now. I don't use an xbox anymore. I think they are failing because of the xbmcplugin.getSetting takes one parameter instead of two. I will see if I can add detection for xbox to change the xbmcplugin.getSetting usage. if you replaced the "pluginhandle," from each xbmcplugin.getSetting then they should work but I don't have a setup to test on xbox right now. |

But now, as Mr. Brooks succumbs to one last murderous urge, an amateur photographer (Dane Cook) witnesses the crime. Suddenly Brooks finds himself entangled in the dark agenda of an opportunistic bystander, as well as hunted by the unorthodox and tenacious detective Tracy Atwood (Demi Moore).

Aw, heck. Is it really worth making a fuss over The Middle's 100-episode milestone? It hardly seems in character for a family like the Hecks of Orson, Indiana. When she's reminded that they volunteered to drive a giant cow float in Orson's centennial parade, Frankie (Patricia Heaton) whines, "This is what happens when we drink: We sign up for stupid committees. Or get Brick."
But as Orson itself expresses in a self-deprecating new town motto: "Why not?" This episode (Wednesday, 8/7c, ABC) truly is cause for celebration, as TV's most heartfelt and hilariously relatable family sitcom reflects on what brought Frankie and Mike (Neil Flynn) to Orson in the first place, while giving their lovably imperfect offspring a chance to shine in clever-to-wacky subplots. (Sue's attempt to make Darrin jealous by cozying up to her flamboyant BFF Brad is especially genius.)

text: This week I finally filmed a clip on Scoop.ed which is a charming little coffee bar and ice cream parlour in East Dulwich. I'd been talking about doing this with Sarah, the founder, for months and finally we scheduled it in the diary for a Wednesday early evening after business hours. It's always a little bit tricky filming under changing light conditions – in this case the sun was setting – but overall we're both really pleased with how it turned out. I think Sarah's got a good voice, so it made for strong narration.

The Very First Jozi Craft Beer Fest. Hmm...
You'll hear a lot of hate about yesterday's Jozi Craft Beer Festival. About how they were turning people away at the gate. How the lines were too long... The fact that the fest sold out the day before may, I dunno, have something to do with it. Why people would still show up to an event when they know there were no tickets left is beyond the realm of retard. That fact is, I had a great time as did tons of others. I will admit the lines were too long for pretty much everything. It happens. They'll fix it for next year's fest. But you know what, it was all worth the wait. The beer was awesome. As was the food and company. So many familiar faces. Some with babies (which was weird) All smiling by the way. So many beers to choose from. So what if you had to wait 10 minutes in the glorious Winter Jozi sun? Not like you had a meeting to go to. Beer of the day, by far, was Devil's Peak IPA. Deflippenlicious! If you have the opportunity to taste it, bring along a giant mug or two. You will not be disappointed. And to all of you out there who didn't attend yesterday, next year maybe buy your tickets on time, eh? Excellent.

A quote escalation.
In the Gaza conflict in this comes as Israel strikes more targets in Gaza overnight to -- a cluster of -- government buildings there.
In the meantime Hamas firing dozens of rockets back at Israel bringing the total to some 14100.

Good to be with -- -- -- what new information do you have about who's behind the bus bombing.
But we don't know who is responsible yet cannot.
But we do know that Hamas is celebrating as you mentioned -- -- firing guns of celebration in the street -- giving out candy to children.
You can go on YouTube and see Hamas.
Supporters chanting.
We want more Israeli body -- we want more is really body bags and this this is really what this conflict is about.
It's about Hamas and other genocide -- groups in -- Gaza.
Trying to kill the maximum number Israelis.
Well we are trying to defend ourselves and trying to reduce.
The Palestinian civilian casualties of the greatest extent that we can.
Because the terrorists are dug in behind the civilian population how when we if I could have ambassador how has this impacted.
This cease fire talks that are ongoing.
-- doesn't help.
It's certainly we are we we're looking for Hamas to stop shooting at us to.
So that when we can discuss long term arrangements such as putting to place a mechanism that would prevent.
Hamas from the shooting at our population.
Every month -- they've been doing and paralyzing half the country.
And also stop Iran from smuggling very sophisticated long range missiles into Gaza both -- hit Tel Aviv they try to shoot them at -- Islam as well.
-- taught us a little bit about.
The -- -- negotiation and share with us with us what you can because on the very surface level we understand ceased our means at her when stops firing rockets at each other -- you mentioned some.
Other problems that are very import and -- Israel.
And the survival of your state so what is imperative.
To the cease fire negotiations.
To get Israel to agree.
What is imperative first of all that the firing stopped.
And a couple of days ago general that prime minister -- visited Gaza and we declared a unilateral cease fire we stopped all shooting.
Took advantage of that cease fire to fire fight fifty rockets at southern Israel so that's got to stop that's right off the bat.
But also we have to put into place a mechanism.
I involving other regional actors such as Egypt.
That will prevent the terrorist.
From the shooting three for twenty rockets every week into southern Israel to completely disrupt the lives of more than a million Israelis keeps them.
Within a 152 run of the nearest bomb shelter keep schools closed.
-- and we have to find a way of blocking the great smuggling.
A sophisticated arms from Iran including long range missiles up across the desert into Gaza.
You can't -- do you think Egypt is complicit in not -- you think Egypt under the new administration of president Morrissey is complicit and knows that's happening.
Well part of this way the the the rock they did the weaponry goes to the Red Sea.
From Iran rock we rock -- -- weapons also come from Libya and at certain point they all crossed through Egyptian territory.
So certainly there's a responsibility there to step up to the plate and stop the smuggling.
Egypt has been constructive in the past -- had a constructive role we hope beatable continue to fulfill a constructive role now -- in the future.
I asked that question because we we both know how -- in this -- relationship with Egypt is for both your country.
And fraud are -- -- to talk to a little bit about the New York Times article that.
That you wrote I today news did publish and he said that that Hamas is not interested in peace he does -- violence does want to promote.
Terror it is not a rational actor.
According to the way that you that you laid this out.
So so why negotiate at all through any actors here in this region with Hamas.
What you negotiate trade arrangement not to make -- they don't want -- negotiate with -- -- don't want make peace with us they -- to destroy us.
They want to not only kill every Israeli -- you wanna kill Jews throughout the world that's what -- covenant says there they are genocide organization.
But you can negotiate with the United States with Egypt and other regional actors to create a situation where Hamas does not have free -- to shoot at us.
And where Hamas does not have access.
-- Iranian rockets.
You -- and something so important though.
As Mary said they don't have free -- stood to fire these rockets but with or without hamas' ideology exist.
That that is one that wants to destroy the State of Israel.
This ideology is something that also we confront in this country as well so beyond just the immediate ambassador what do you do about that ideology how do you.
How do you win.
It's a great question -- -- the one like the question I've sought to ask and answer India in the New York Times article.
At winning means -- you send a message to the terrorists he sent a message to Hamas that if they shoot at our citizens they will pay a very very hair heavy price.
And they have to be -- reminded periodically.
And it's unfortunate that's the way we live in the Middle East but we've lived that way since it for 64 years since Israel creation.
Israel is a fantastic country a world leader in high tech and technology.
We've done this because every once in awhile we've had to remind those who want to destroy us.
That is a very very heavy price for shooting at our citizens and is that reminder only through violence.
Well we can remind them through diplomacy but if diplomacy doesn't work we have to take.
All legitimate and necessary means to defend our citizens that's what any.
State I would do is certainly a statement are very tough neighborhood ambassador we look for having back on the program thank you for the time we know you're very busy and we appreciate it very much.
Thank you have a good Thanksgiving --

There was no movement among the top six schools in the latest law school rankings from U.S. News & World Report. The real attention-getter on this year's list will likely be the extension of numerical rankings beyond the top 100 and elimination of the old alphabetically listed third and fourth tiers.

TOC's sexpert tackles your most penetrating questions.
I read your column every week, and I know anal sex is not an uncommon topic. I have been experimenting with (and really enjoying) anal with my boyfriend over the last several months. However, in addition to being pleased at this new source of pleasure, I've also been worried about the possible negative effects it's having on my body. Even in a few months I've noticed that my anus has become a bit more flexible and "open"—it's become less painful than it occasionally used to be. Am I causing irreversible damage here? Will this cause prolapse, hemorrhoids or other problems? As much as I enjoy this newfound realm, taking care of my body is a big priority for me.
I wish I could guarantee you a land of risk-free anal sex but, alas, I can't. Then again I can't guarantee risk-free vaginal sex, either. Each of these types of sex runs the risk of passing a sexually transmissible infection (STI). In the case of the human papillomavirus (HPV), research suggests that certain strains of HPV may be related not only to cervical, penile and vulvar cancers, but also to oral and anal cancers. Of course, most people who have HPV (or who engage in oral or anal sex) will not develop cancer, but it is a reminder that sex has risks. You can reduce the risk of some STIs by having your boyfriend wear a condom during anal sex. And yes, there may be a potential for other types of problems associated with anal sex. For example, one can tear the anus just as one can tear the vagina during penetration. Often these cuts or tears are tiny but they may be painful, and if you or your partner has an infection, the cuts may make it easier to transmit an infection. Some health-care providers believe that some cases of rectal prolapse (which is when the rectal tissue falls down into the anal opening) may be linked to anal sex, but we need more information on that, and certainly one can experience prolapse from other causes (pregnancy, for example). Most people will have hemorrhoids at some point in their life, so it's difficult to tell how much anal sex may increase those odds, if at all. If you ever experience pain during or after anal sex, I would strongly encourage you to check in with your health-care provider just as you would if you had issues with vaginal or oral sex.
My partner and I have been together for about a decade. He is considerably older than me, and last year he bravely faced prostate cancer. He survived, which is something that I thank my lucky stars for daily. Our sex life is almost entirely gone these days, though. He has difficulty with erections and orgasm. He has encouraged me to go out and meet other men for sex, but my heart isn't in it. We have never been the type of gay couple to have an open relationship. It wasn't our thing when we got together, and I don't feel that way now. I think he feels that if he can't give me sex, then someone else should. He doesn't want us to split up, but sometimes I feel like he's practically pushing me out the door for sex. I don't want to. I am in love with him more now than I ever have been. Do I wish we could have sex? Sure. But I can't imagine being with another guy. This is beginning to be a contentious issue, strange as that might seem.
It can be heartbreaking to worry about losing someone you love so dearly, and though dealing with cancer certainly can change many things, it seems not to have changed your feelings about exclusivity with your partner. He may be feeling as if he has less to offer you now, and he may need extra reassurance from you that 1) he remains exactly what you want when it comes to sex, romance and your relationship and 2) if you ever change your mind and want to be with other men, he can count on you to be open and honest with him. It may be that he's worried about losing you, or about you secretly wanting to have sex with other guys, and concerned he'd hear it through the grapevine (and feel doubly rejected) rather than hear it directly from you. Then again, maybe he feels like he is trying to offer you the gift of being able to guiltlessly be with other men, and believe me, there are quite a few men and women who would want such an opportunity. However, that doesn't work for everyone and it doesn't sound like it's what you want. In addition to erection and ejaculation issues, he may be struggling with desire or body image, or how to communicate his changed feelings and experiences with you. If you'd like some support dealing with these issues, please consider connecting with the Howard Brown Health Center, meeting with a certified sex therapist (aasect.org) or reading a book such as Saving Your Sex Life: A Guide for Men with Prostate Cancer (Hilton, $16.95), which is straight-focused but still useful.
My boyfriend of two years has a beautiful, huge penis that I sometimes brag about. A few weeks ago, I was talking about it with a girlfriend of mine and she joked that she wishes I would share it with her! I mentioned this to my boyfriend, and (surprise, surprise) he was very turned on at the idea of two girls giving him a blow job at the same time. The more I've thought about it, the more I get turned on as well. Am I crazy for maybe wanting to share my boyfriend's penis with another girl? I've always wanted to try a threesome; would this be a good way to start?
Wow, a guy turned on by oral sex provided by two enthusiastic partners (one of them his girlfriend) who are both impressed by his penis? Imagine that! If this is something that you are into and your boyfriend and friend are, too, then it could be a very good experience. Then again, one never knows. Some things are positively drool-worthy in fantasy but not so great in reality. For instance, how would you feel if she hogged your boyfriend's penis? What if you watch his face and feel as if he's enjoying her oral sex skills more than yours? What if he kisses her in a way that makes you feel jealous or uncomfortable? What if it's going so well that one of you suggests intercourse, and the others aren't into that? Or, even if the sex itself goes well, what if she and he want an encore but you don't? Or what if she says it was "just okay," whereas you think he and his penis are amazing? All I'm saying is that threesomes are tricky. Since you are in a romantic relationship with your boyfriend and a platonic friendship with your girlfriend, my guess is that these are two relationships you don't want to jeopardize. Treat them with the care that they deserve, and if you decide to proceed, make sure to talk about everyone's feelings, expectations, boundaries and comfort zones prior to getting on your knees with your friend. The Ethical Slut (Greenery Press, $17) is a unique book in its ability to explore a range of issues (such as how to deal with jealousy, communication and reassurance) around threesomes, nonmonogamy and the like.

1937 Hudson Terraplane Delivery Van
I am just wondering, how rare are these Hudsons? How many where manufactured?
Any Information on Hudson would be much appreciated.
It is one Hudson I would love to acquire if I ever got the chance. Preferably in a year or two after I finish restoring my current projects.Christopher

In a word, they are quite rare, and if one is around in restorable shape, it won't be as cheap as say a 4 door sedan.
Scarcer'n hen's teeth. However, there is a 37 Terraplane listed as a panel in the HET roster belonging to the Tabbert's in Alberta CN
The HAMB picture was posted several years ago. Moses Lake was the location of a longtime HET member who found purchased and towed home to the "farm" many Hudson automobiles. Most were moved there at the end of a hand cranked tow dolly connected to the owners Hudson driver. I believe there was an auction a decade or more ago to sell off the collection.
On other historic posts Bill Albight (RIP) states he sold his restored 37 T panel to Hemming Motor News. Further that HMN repainted the truck to match thier green motif.
Another post from Lance Walker states... the origin of Bill's restoration was a Pennsylvania based HETer who stored the former funeral car in a barn for years before Bill bought and restored it.
As another poster shared, I too have had the pleasure of viewing and riding in the HMN panel.
Rare vehicles but still Hudsoning firstname.lastname@example.com -
knowing my luck i found one when i cannot afford it.... seller wants 20k for it.
Considering the condition of that beauty, I would want to find something in a lot worse shape and in this case the more rust the better.Christopher

I bought these to replace 30 year old blinds. the old ones had five hangers at top; these have two. The old blinds had real cords; these have lightweight cotton that will not last more than 5=8 years in the outdoors. the hooks sent with two of the three blinds (none in the other box) are useless so I had to go out and buy substantiall hooks to hold their weight. Again, the old blinds with five hangers distributed their weight evenly along the blind, but with only two hooks, heavy ones are needed. Here's the real surprise...the originals cost 10 dollars and these,,,I kept them because returning these heavy items would be costly; would I buy them again? No, unless I recognized that they are a short term investment. I think they are overpriced.
The bamboo shade is just perfect for our needs. We have a screened porch that faces west so the afternoon sun can really be warm and the glare can be really bad. The shade solves both of these problems. While keeping out the heat it allows the breeze to come through. We love it.
This shade was the perfect solution to shade and privacy. Easy to put up and take down. Only wish it had more than three hooks. Love it.
These are awesome. Have had them on my screened in porch for almost 2 years. Have held up well to rain, wind, and the heat. Love them!
These shades were a very good value for the price. They were well made, easy to install, functioned correctly and looked good on the windows. We have ordered many sets of these from Overstock.
See my review about the 48 inch Roll-up Window Shade. Same comments apply to this one.
i bought 3 olive ones for my family room. they look great except the color is lighter than the one in the picture.

Check in was quick and the clerk was very pleasant. Our suite was very roomy with a couch so my grandson had a good play area with the coffee table. Nice breakfast with plenty of food. Internet was up and down and not very reliable. It is close to the expressway so you'll have some noise from that.

It launched a new website about two weeks ago. Several dozen women are coming together to post their profiles and stories about whey they would like women to have the same leadership opportunities as men.
Lori Winder is just one woman who supports this group. She raised her children in the Latter-day Saint Church and has taught gospel doctrine classes and worked as a visiting teacher.
She now occasionally attends church, but says many in her group attend Church every week. "We have men and women. We have women who are grandmothers and women who are young mothers," Winder said.
She says other women and men connecting with her group's message and recalls some of the many reactions to her group's new website. "I thought I was the only one out there who believed this. I've been troubled by this from so many years in the Church. I love the Church and I want to remain, but I'm so troubled by gender issues," said Winder.
Winder says her concerns focus primarily on the Church's most senior leaders.
"The minute you move above the local level where you don't have those personal relationships women lose a lot of power and authority to influence decisions in the Church," Winder said.
LDS Church spokeswoman Jessica Moody released this official statement:
"There is nothing in the scriptures which suggests that to be a man rather than a woman is preferred in the sight of God, or that He places a higher value on sons than on daughters. The worth of a human soul is not defined by a set of duties or responsibilities. In God's plan for His children, both women and men have the same access to the guidance of His spirit, to personal revelation, faith and repentance, to grace and the atonement of His Son, Jesus Christ, and are received equally as they approach Him in prayer. The practice of ordaining men to the priesthood was established by Jesus Christ himself, and is not a decision to be made by those on earth."
ABC 4 talked with active Latter-day Saints about this new group. ABC 4's Noah Bond shared the group's statement with active Latter-day Saints to get reaction.
Ordain Women's website reads:
"According to the Church's Gospel Principles manual, Men use priesthood authority to preside in the Church. . . 'Women who hold positions in the Church . . . Work under the direction of the priesthood.' As such, Mormon women have many delegated responsibilities but lack the authority to define and oversee those responsibilities."
Active Latter-day Saint Glenn Cox responded, "I disagree with them having previously served as a bishop many years ago in my ward that those sisters called to responsible positions had every right to make decisions pertaining to the organization and never came to time as a bishop to say is this OK."
Active Latter-day Saint Bonnie McDermott said, "There's a place for both men and women in the Church and men hold the priesthood. Women do other things that are just as important."
It's organizing "The Ordain Women Launch" April 6 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Union Theater at 200 South Central Campus Drive in Salt Lake City. The location is inside the University of Utah Student Union Building.
