Our Research
America could meet its energy needs by capturing just a sliver of the virtually limitless and pollution-free energy that strikes the nation every day in the form of sunlight. With solar installation costs falling, the efficiency of solar cells rising, and the threats of air pollution and global warming ever-looming, solar power is becoming a more attractive and widespread source of energy every day. Star Power: The Growing Role of Solar Energy in America challenges our local, state and federal government officials to set strong goals and implement pro-solar policies to spur America to meet at least 10 percent of our nation's electricity needs with solar power by 2030.(November 2014)
Federal tax subsidies for commuter parking add 820,000 cars to the roads - often during rush hour in America's biggest, most congested cities - at a cost to taxpayers of $7.3 billion per year, according to Subsidizing Congestion, a report issued by the civic philanthropy TransitCenter and Frontier Group. The report finds that the tax benefit for commuter transit use - while beneficial - only weakly counteracts the negative effects of the parking subsidy. The report calls for detailed evaluation of commuter tax benefits and reforms to better align tax incentives with the nation's overall transportation goals.(November 2014)
In the early 1970s, many American rivers and streams were contaminated with toxic industrial pollution, choked with untreated sewage and trash, and, in many cases, devoid of aquatic life.
In 2014, 42 years after the passage of the Clean Water Act, many of these formerly degraded waterways are returning to health. But at least one-third of the country's rivers, streams and lakes are not yet safe for fishing and swimming.
Our 15 case studies show that when the Clean Water Act applies to waterways, it is a powerful and effective tool for improving water quality for humans and wildlife.(October 2014)
Members of the Millennial generation are driving less than previous generations of young Americans and taking transit and biking more. They are more likely to want to live in urban and walkable communities, more technologically connected, and more likely to use new transportation apps and services than older Americans. What is behind those changes? And will they last? Millennials in Motion explores the many factors at play in Millennials' move away from driving and argues that many of those changes are likely to be lasting.(October 2014)
Americans are driving less than in years past. Yet states continue to move forward with highway construction and expansion projects that consume a large share of shrinking transportation revenues, even as other needs – from public transportation improvements to road and bridge repairs – go unmet. Highway Boondoggles: Wasted Money and America's Transportation Future describes 11 questionable projects around the country – slated to cost at least $13 billion – and calls on policymakers to reevaluate these huge capacity-expanding plans in the context of competing needs and changing priorities.(September 2014)

"We got these for thank you cards for our little baby girl. I like that they are just one flat card rather than a folding card. They are heavy duty, high quality and beautiful."
"These blank cards will be the Thank You cards from both "MOM" and "DAD" to be.... they are the perfect ending to a perfect couple for a perfect shower for a more than perfect baby. Tiny Prints put both full names on the cards ... it's just awesome looking...."
"The stationary cards can quickly. Good quality and done perfectly. Very impressed and will be ordering more items from this company."
"This card is perfect for writing little thank you notes. About half the size of a normal envelope the card is an ideal size. A matte finish with very sharp printed lines I wish I had ordered more!"
"I was trying to decide between three cards from this site and this is the one I chose- and I love it! It's so simple yet elegant and what really won me over was the matching birth announcement which is soooo cute too! Service from company was great, recieved personalized cards very quickly and they were perfect."

Reducer moldings are a common flooring transition and are used when a small transition is needed from one finished floor surface to another. Usually this is where a hardwood floor meets tile, vinyl or linoleum flooring. Wood reducers can be used with tile-to-wood or wood-to-tile transitions. Usually used in doorways but in some cases used as a room divider or where the floor meets a fireplace.

The latest weekly flu report shows a slight downward trend in rates of flu-like illness in Massachusetts. Flu can be unpredictable, though, and we can expect flu to continue to spread at some level in Massachusetts as we make our way through spring. That's why it's important to get a flu shot even at this point during flu season. Contact your healthcare provider or visit your local pharmacy if you'd like to get vaccinated.

As the standoff over Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project (KNPP) persists, a top KNPP official on Sunday said the prolonged stir would affect the scheduled commissioning of the plant in December.
Sticking to their guns that the project be scrapped, the anti-KNPP activists have stepped up their agitation blocking the road leading to the site of the Indo-Russian project affecting the work.
"It (the stir) has definitely affected the work. The protesters have blocked the road leading to the plant. Police have advised us not to take our vehicles on that road, since they are blocked," KNPP Director Kasinath Balaji told PTI over phone.
He said employees and contract workers were "restricted" from entering the plant in the past few days.
Though there were no nuclear processes in progress as of now, the protest has derailed plans for commissioning the first of the 2x1000 MW reactors in December.
"If not for these protests, Unit I would have been commissioned by December," Mr. Balaji said.
To address the concerns raised by the local population, the KNPP officials have set up a committee to explain about the safety measures put in place.
"We have constituted a seven-member committee which will bring out booklets and pamphlets in Tamil to explain to the locals about the safety measures in the plant," he said.
KNPP Director Mr. Balaji said, "The committee members will go to all the schools and colleges in the area and explain about the safety measures in the plant."
The protests have intensified since August after the authorities announced the plant would be commissioned in December following the completion of hot run (testing with dummy nuclear fuel).
Efforts by the Centre and Tamil Nadu governments have failed to convince the protesters so far. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who had met a multi-party delegation including representatives of the protesters, had announced setting up of a panel to address the safety concerns.
Making out a strong case for nuclear power to meet the growing energy requirement, Dr Singh has also written twice to State Chief Minister Jayalalithaa on the importance of commissioning the plants as planned.
All safety measures at the unit I had been tested and once the test procedures were over, a report would be submitted to the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board, Mr. Balaji said.
Mr. Balaji also said pre-commissioning works were underway at the unit II.

Scottdale girl returns home from theatrical tour
Ten-year-old Maggie Martinsen swears that if she ever has to hear the song "Castle on a Cloud" again it will be too soon.
Not that she doesn't like it, but she had been singing it night after night as part of her role in the Broadway musical "Les Miserables."
Martinsen returned home to Scottdale in September after a three-year tour with the production. She performed all over the country and in Canada, playing the young version of a character named Cosette.
The production took her and her aunt, Debbie Riggin, to all but four states as well as Canada.
For the two, it was three continuous years on the road. They lived in hotels and ate in restaurants. During the months Martinsen normally would have been in school, she and the three other kids in the show spent five hours a day during the week working with a tutor.
All told, she performed in roughly 1,352 shows.
The young Cosette is abused by her foster parents. Martinsen also played the young version of another character, Eponine, the couple's real daughter.
In either role, Martinsen was on stage for about 20 minutes during any given show.
She said she was never nervous because she couldn't see the audience - the stage lights blinded her - and she figured she'd never be back to any of the towns she was performing in.
"If I messed up, I wouldn't see (the audience) again," she said.
Prior to leaving, Martinsen had performed in shows at Scottdale Showtime Theatre and was a student at the Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera Academy of Musical Theater.
Her mom, Jan Martinsen, said her daughter has always had some measure of musical talent.
"From the time she was little, she has always liked to sing. She could carry a tune, and if she heard a song, she could sing it back on key."
Martinsen landed the part after her aunt saw an ad in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette for open call for kids.
On a whim, Riggin suggested her niece audition.
Maggie's mother, however, wasn't so keen on the idea because she didn't want to see her daughter be rejected.
"I didn't want her to be disappointed," she said.
Riggin said she ought to go anyway, at least just to see what an audition for a Broadway production was all about.
So they went. And she sang "Castle on a Cloud." And the people from the show liked her.
Jan Martinsen said they told her they wanted her daughter in the show, but they didn't have an opening at the moment. They would call later, she was told, if something opened up.
Martinsen said she thought that amounted to a polite brush-off. But a month later, they called her at work and asked if Maggie could be in Tampa in a few weeks.
"I was shocked," she said.
Martinsen eventually had to leave the musical because she was growing too tall for her part.
Andre Barette, the musical's production stage manager, said Martinsen was playing a character who is 5 or 6. He said the kids can't be too tall because they need to maintain a size difference between the younger and older versions of characters.
He said that helps show time has elapsed and a character has indeed grown up.
But that's not to say he and the other cast members wanted Maggie to go.
"She's a doll," said Barette. "I don't have a bad thing to say about Maggie. When she left it was a sad day for all of us."
So now after three years on the road, she's come home and is trying to adapt to a normal life for a 10-year-old.
She's playing soccer and she's already made some new friends at school.
Her mom is glad to have her home.
"I missed her terribly, but I was happy for her," Martinsen said. She also thinks the Maggie she sent off is the same Maggie who came home.
"I think the great thing about Maggie is she left not being a stage kid and she came back not being a stage kid. She's definitely not full of herself and I love that."

I need to re-finish my deck which I have allowed to weather. I plan to use my belt sander with extra course paper.
1- How fine does the final sanding need to be?
2- If I leave it relatively rough (medium grit)on the last pass will that affect how long the stain will last?
3- Do I need to take it down to bare wood?
Thanks, in advance for the help.

People don't ordinairly sand their decks. They just water blast then stain. Why do you want to sand? However, if your still inclined to do such a task, I wouldn't go over 100grit.
Just use a pressure washer and if it hasn't been stained all ready you are at bare wood prolly just grayed a bit if you let it age.
The grayish looking will be blasted away with pressure washer.
The grayish looking will be blasted away with pressure washer.
Excellent thanks. I wasn't looking forward to sanding. I didn't realize a pressure washer would get me to bare wood.
It may be a while fore I get to it. Lots of stuff, little time. You know how it is. Thanks again. Oh I am going to use solid stain now anyway so it doesn't really matter if the wood is a little gray.
OK I pressure washed the deck and it is pretty clean. Now, there are little "hairs" of wood sticking up in many places. Should I do a little light sanding to remove these things and possible slivers? Should I dust with a rag moistened with paint thinner after sanding? Thanks
Just use a piece of sandpaper in most cases it will work great,you might of gotten a little to aggresive with the pressure washer in those spots,but no harm done.

PRINTER PLATEN CONTROL 7 //v VEN TOR JOHN E. HAWXHURST Br I I GWUJMM ATTORNEY May 6, 1969 J. E. HAWXHURST 3,442,210
PRINTER PLATEN CONTROL Filed Dec. 20, 1967 Sheet 3 of 2 United States Patent US. Cl. 101-407 6 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An adjustable printer platen is retracted by operation of a type carrier gate locking handle in opening the gate, and is advanced by operation of the handle to lock the gate in the closed position until a sensing mechanism engages the form and locks the mechanism against further advance of the platen.
FIELD OF INVENTION The invention relates to automatic adjusting of printer platens, particularly in front printers where clearance are generally critical.
DESCRIPTION OF PRIOR ART Adjustable printer platens are known in which an operator loosens a clamp and manually adjusts the platen by setting a lever or knob which actuates the platen to a position selected on the basis of a table which designates different knob or lever positions for different form thicknesses.
SUMMARY OF INVENTION Generally stated, it is an object of this invention to provide a simple and effective platen control system for a printer.
More specifically, it is an object of this invention to provide in an on-the-fiy printer for mechanically connecting a platen positioning mechanism with the operating handle for a swinging gate type carrier.
It is also an object of this invention to provide for automatically retracting an adjustable print platen whenever the type carrier gate of the printer is opened, and for advancing it into predetermined operating relation with the form to be printed upon, whenever the type carrier gate is closed.
Yet another object of the invention is to provide for close positioning of a printer platen in a front printer without incurring damage to the type carrier by reason of jamming the carrier against a relatively thick form when the carrier gate is closed.
Another important object of this invention is to provide a spring biased platen With a resilient cam operating mechanism for advancing the platen.
Yet another object of the invention is to provide releasable latch means for locking a platen camming mechanism against further advance whenever a sensing mechanism senses that the type carrier gate is in predetetrmined relation with a form in the printer.
It is still an important object of the invention to provide for resiliently biasing a printer platen to a retracted position, and biasing an operating mechanism to advance the platen whenever locking the type carrier gate.
Still another object of this invention is to provide for resiliently connecting a platen advancing mechanism to the type carrier gate control handle, and for determining the advance of the platen by releasing a latch member when the form is sensed to block further advance of the platen advancing mechanism.
In a preferred form of the invention, a back up print platen for a front on-the-fly train printer is mounted for movement toward and away from the type elements of a train type cartridge which is mounted on a swinging type carrier gate. A rotatable cam mechanism for adjusting the platen position is connected by a spring to the control handle of the latch mechanism which locks the gate closed, so as to advance the platen as the control handle is moved to the locking position. A releasable sensing member carried by the platen engages the form when the platen advances to the proper position relative to the form, and releases a pawl which prevents further advance movement of the cam mechanism, thus locating the platen in predetermined relation with the form.
The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following more particular description of a preferred embodiment of the invention as illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a schematic isometric view of a portion of a printer mechanism embodying the invention in one of its forms, and
FIGURE 2 is an enlarged partial sectional view taken along the line 2-2 of FIGURE 1.
DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring generally to FIGURE 1 of the drawings, reference numeral 10 denotes the mechanical elements of a print mechanism for a high speed printer in which a type cartridge 12 shown in dotted outline is mounted on a swinging gate structure 14 which is pivotally mounted on a frame 13 by means of a pivot 15 at one end so as to permit manually swinging the gate structure 14 in a horizontal plane between a closed operating position as shown to an open position for permitting the insertion and removal of a form or forms 16 shown in dotted outline, upon which a printing operating is to be performed. The printer may be generally of the type disclosed in Patent 3,224,366 which issued on Dec. 21, 1965 to James M. Cunningham, and is assigned to the assignee of the present invention. Whereas the printer shown in the subject patent is of the back printer type, the printer of the present application is a front printer, and as shown in FIGURES 1 and 2, the document or form 16 on which a printing operation is to be performed is positioned between type elements represented by the element 17 shown in FIGURE 2 as mounted in the cartridge 12 for movement along a print line, and a platen 18 which provides a back up for the document 16 when a type element 17 is impacted against the document and a ribbon 22 by means of one or more hammers 24 pivotally mounted on pivots 23 and actuated by means such as the pushrod 26 which corresponds to the operating mechanism in the Cunningham patent hereinbefore referred to.
Instead of having fixed character bearing type elements as in the subject patent, the type elements 17 of the pres ent application are formed on levers 25 which are pivotally supported by means such as the pin 27 in type carrying members 28 which are disposed in a train arrangement as described in the Cunningham patent, on a rail 29 which guides the type members past the print line. A resilient impression control member 32 engages a portion of the hammer 24 to limit the operating velocity thereof.
In order to provide the proper relative positioning of the type elements 17 and the form 16, the platen 18 is made adjustable. The platen 18 is for example, slidably supported on the frame 13, being located for movement toward and away from the type cartridge 12 by means of slots 26 which receive guide pins 28 secured to the frame 13. The platen 18 is biased to a retracted position by means of springs secured between pins 32 in the platen and pins 34 secured to the machine frame. Adjustment of the platen against the force of the springs 30 is secured by means of an eccentric cam adjusting member 36 which is rotatably mounted by means of a shaft 38 and bears against the rear side of the platen 18. The shaft 38 may be rotatably supported on the frame 13 by means of suitable bearings, being for example, positioned in openings 39, as shown at one end of the frame. Means such as the retaining clip 37 is secured to the platen 18 by means of a screw and partially surrounds a portion of the cam member 36 so as to provide positive retraction of the platen.
Operation of the platen adjusting cam 36 may be effected by means of a selector cam 40 which is secured to the shaft 38. The cam 36 is activated by being resiliently connected to a control handle 42 which is used to lock the type carrier gate 14, by means such as the spring 44, which is connected to a pin 45 secured to the selector cam 40 and to a pin 46 projecting from a portion of the control handle. The control handle 42 may be positioned by being rotatably mounted on the shaft 38 of the adjusting cam member 36. The pin 46 may be so located that when the control handle 42 is operated to the horizontal or open position as shown, the pin 46 engages a rear portion of the selector cam 40 to rotate the adjusting cam 36 clockwise to its most retracted position. The control handle 42 is provided with a depending hooked portion 48 for engaging a pin 50 on a latch member 51, which is pivotally secured to the' carrier gate 14 by means of a pivot and provided with a compression biasing spring 56 for urging it to the position shown. When the control handle 42 is rotated in a counterclockwise or upward direction, the hook member 48 engages the pin 50 and locks the gate in the closed position.
When the control handle 42 is moved in a counterclockwise or upward direction to lock the carrier gate in the closed position, the spring 44 connecting the control handle 42 and the selector cam 40 is stretched, and the selector cam 40 is urged in a counterclockwise direction, rotating the adjusting cam 36 to advance the platen 18 towards the type carrier 12. Forward movement of the platen 18 is terminated by the engagement of a sensing member 68 carried by the platen, with the form in the machine. The sensing member 68 is adjustably positioned on a latch lever 64, which is rotatably disposed by means of a pin 66 on a support bracket 56 carried by the platen, to which it is secured by means of screws 58. The bracket 56 provides one bearing 57 for a shaft 52, the other end of which is supported by means of a bearing bracket 54 on the machine frame (this arrangement is possibly because of the limited movement of the platen 18, which is on the order of .040.050 inch). The shaft 52 carries a pawl 53 which is disposed to engage teeth 43 and lock the selector cam 40 against further movement when the sensing member 68 engages the form. The latch member 64 is biased in a counterclockwise direction as shown in FIGURE 2 by means of a spring 62 connected to an operating lever 60 carried at the other end of the shaft 52. The spring 62 normally urges the latch member 64 in a counterclockwise direction to the position shown in FIG- URE 2 in which a stop 65 engages the surface of the platen. In this position, the latch lever 60 rests against a latch portion 67 of latch member 64, which prevents further counterclockwise rotation of the shaft 52, and maintains the pawl 53 clear of the teeth 43 on the selector cam.
With the control handle in the open position shown in FIGURE 1, the carrier gate 14 may be swung open on its pivot 15 to permit the insertion of a form or forms between the platen 18 and the type carrier 12. When the swinging type carrier gate 14 is closed, against the form 16, movement of the control handle 42 in an upward or counterclockwise direction (FIGURE 1) to lock the type carrier gate 14 results in counterclockwise rotation of the 4 selector cam 40 by reason of the spring 44 which connected to the control handle 42. As the selector cam 40 rotates in a counterclockwise direction, the cam adjusting member 36 rotates and forces the platen to advance against the form 16 in the printer. When the sensing member 68 engages the form, the latch lever 64 is rotated in a counterclockwise direction (FIGURE 1) removing the latch portion 67 from beneath the end of the latch lever 60 and permitting the spring 62 to move the latch member 60 in a downward clockwise direction. This brings the pawl 53 into engagement with the teeth 43 of the selector cam, and locks the cam adjusting member 36 against further advancing motion, thus leaving the platen in predetermined relation with the form in the printer. When the control handle 42 is rotating in a downward or counterclockwise direction to release the swinging type carrier gate 14, the pin 46 projecting from the control handle 42 engages the rear surface of the selector cam 40 and rotates the selector cam in a clockwise direction thus rotating the adjusting cam 36 to the retracted position, and permitting the retaining clip 37 and biasing springs 30 to retract the platen 18 to its most retracted position in which it is capable of receiving the thickest of forms.
From the above description and the accompanying drawings, it will be apparent that provision has been made for automatically retracting the platen when the control handle is operated to release and permit opening the type carrier gate and adjusting the position of the platen in a front printer Whenever the control handle is operated to lock the type carrier gate in the closed position to start a printing operation. Proper adjustment of the platen is automatically maintained for a wide variation in the thickness of the forms, and optimum operating conditions are maintained at all times without there being any danger of the type being damaged by closure of the gate on a form with the platen in the advanced position.
While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to a preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changs in form and detail may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
What is claimed is:
1. The combination in a print control system for a printer having a frame with a swinging type carrier gate pivotally movable relative thereto into and out of a closed operating poistion pivotally supporting a type cartridge comprising a plurality of type bearing members movable along a print line of a document and with actuating means for effecting impacting between the members and the document to print on the document,
of a platen movably supported on the frame to provide a backing surface for the document on the opposite side thereof from the type bearing members when the type carrier gate is moved into the closed position,
operating means movable to advance and retract the platen toward and away from the type carrier,
and means including a gate control handle operable to one position to lock the gate in-the closed position and operable to another position to release the type carrier gate, said means being resiliently connected to the operating means to advance the platen toward the type bearing members of the type carrier gate as the handle is moved to the gate locking position.
2. A platen control system as defined in claim 1 characterized by the platen carrying sensing means operable when it engages'and senses the thickness of a form positioned between the platen and the type cartridge to render the resilient connection inelfective to effect further movement of the operating means to advance the platen. I
3. A platen control system as defined in claim 2 characterized by the operating means comprising a rotatable cam member engaging the platen to move it relative to the type cartridge in response to locking movement of the control handle.

Video App Demo: WhitePages
If you're over a certain age and live in the USA you may remember the days when giant books filled with addresses and phone numbers were thrown at your house each year by Ma Bell. Unlike countries elsewhere, such as France, where computers took over the task of finding phone numbers before cell phones were popular, the White Pages (and their paid cousin, the Yellow Pages) were a fixture of American life for many years.
Of course, now we have smartphones. But if someone isn't in your address book on your iPhone, you can use the WhitePages app to find their info. The WhitePages app does more than reverse lookup, but don't take my word for it. Check out the demo video below to see it in action.

Billionaire Banker Andrew Beal has donated the max to Ron Paul's presidential campaign.Submitted by Neverquit on Sat, 10/15/2011 - 20:22
Cain forums freaking out again, GOOD! tHIS COULD BE HUGE FOR rON pAUL.
This is not good, it has been reported that billionaire banker D. Andrew Beal of Beal bank from Dallas Texas has donated the max of $5000 to Ron Paul's presidential campaign, Beal an advid poker player as well as online poker player may be disinfranchised with the federal government shutting down online poker sites to US players. If poker players find out that Ron Paul has been on their side to leagalize online gambling for all US players this could launch Paul to a whole new level.

I would
transfer my funds into this bank in a heartbeat, if they only had a branch in my city.
I don't keep much in the bank, but I'd keep what I had with this guy, just for his support of Ron Paul.
Great ammo for all your "rich" friends
who think that Ron Paul doesn't have a chance.
Ask what does this billionaire know that you don't know. Chances are your friends aren't billionaires but are impressed by those who are. When they start to understand that smaller limited government is the key to our recovery, they will start to come around to Ron Paul.
When you hit them with the info that Andrew has donated the max to Ron Paul, they might even feel that its okay for them to join the campaign.

Nope, not satire.
I've been nosing around there for a few days. The guy who runs it, "Constitution," seems like a pretty decent sort, who was turned off of Ron Paul by the rudeness of some supporters. The forum seems to have around 5000 folks signed up, but very few of them actually post anything.
Nobody there seems to have a clue why anyone would oppose the Federal Reserve, so I posted this to see if I could make a few heads spin. So far, no comments.

Contact Billionare Beal, Let him know about Revolution Super PAC
This needs to be done Immediately, forget the 10k- 100k idea, more like 1 million-10 million, think about it he has probably won/ lost close to that at least once in a game!!! After all supporting doctor Paul is the surest thing we've got!!

How far would you go if you played at World Poker Tour for the first time? When Annie Duke made her first major public appearance in the poker scene, she showed the world that females can play poker too. Many years of experience with cards and competition made her last until 14th place, and a total of $70,000 richer.
Annie was born in Concord, New Hampshire and educated in the prestigious St. Paul's prep school. Feeling like she never fit in there, she matriculated at Columbia University and tried her luck in the big city. Following her parents steps, she decided to become a teacher, but instead, she ended up at the University of Pennsylvania and graduated in cognitive psychology
Did you read their discussion of "fiat" money?
If I could have posted, I would have said:
Isn't "fiat" money like an Italian currency, not as good as a Ferrari, but better than a Vespa?
Feel free to post that if you wish. It's what those Empty Cranium Cainiums deserve.
not to be mean..
but those forums are flat out silly. You can tell its TV watchers commenting.. or maybe TV believers?
I cut out TV when FOX censored Ron in rebroadcast after a debate. All their comments are based on press, not philosophy. I think that is what truly separates a Paul supporter from the establishment supporters.
Just my thoughts. Thanks for the post.
'Peace is a powerful message.' Ron Paul
An Austrian ?
If this Beale is the guy I think it is, then he made a stir in banking circles several years ago when he announced that his bank would only accept Certificates of Deposit and not ordinary checking deposits, etc.
Such a policy eliminates one of the primary objections to fractional reserve banking because it eliminates the problem of creating multiple claims to the same money, provided that the maturity of assets and liabilities are matched.
I remember hearing about it at the time, and thinking that it was curious that a real bank would adopt such a policy. I figured it was a marketing gimick or something at the time. But if this guy has a track record of donating to libertarians, this policy may be founded on principle. He may actually be trying to run an "honest bank" in a world where traditional fractional reserve banking has become institutionalized.
Anyway, I know that this is an obscure topic, but I thought some of you might find it as interesting as I did.
That is interesting - thank you!
Good to know :)

Good atmosphere as seems to attract a fun crowd. We stayed in a double room which was really smelly and not clean. Nice place to relax in hammocks, communal feel. Good location only a few minutes walk to street. The breakfast is decent located really near by. I'd stay here again, it was value for money

I liked this place, stayed a week. Was a bit put off when I paid up front for the rest of my booking after the 10% already paid to hostel world and was quoted in reals but charged in USD. Therefore paying more than I should have. If the booking was quoted in USD it would have been fine but... It wasn't. Anyway guy did put us in a room a day before booking and found us a room post booking.

Pipa is amazing! If you are traveling in Brazil, make sure you check out this awesome beach town. Great for surf, partying and food. Media Veronica Hostel was okay but I wouldn't stay there again. I felt the place was very clicky and the set up for a common area is poorly thought out. As well, they don't provide adequate lighting (they shut it down early on in the evenings). Weak and no breakfast offered. Eat at the pasta place across the street - Pan E Vino is authentic Italian. Homemade pastas

Listening to that song makes me think they've finally found their balance and composure as a band
get out
"Emo/Post Punk"
What would you consider them as? That's a serious question. I've always kind of had a hard time classifying them as a genre,
so I just went by what sputnik says, lol.
Anyways, song rules hard
But I always use "alternative" for this band.
pop-punk masquerading as alt
Lets stop arguing about genres and discuss the song? lol
i guess its about time i look into these guys. song rules.
Digging: Grade - Separate The Magnets
Song is fantastic
Picked up that yellow/fuchsia haze vinyl before it sold out. Glad I did. This song kills.

"Lets stop arguing about genres and discuss the song? lol"
Digging: Mr. Oizo - The Church
cool song. i'm excited for the anthony green feature!
Calc, it's cause people obviously weren't taking the question serious.
its still funny
new balances are for old women
Great song. Looking forward to the album.
song was definitely better than anything on Separation.
Jesus, could that article be any more pretentious sounding?
song is alright. I can see people digging it a lot, not sure how much I'll be listening to it though.
song was definitely better than anything on Separation.
Mabbitt, you talking about the pitchfork article?
loveisamixtape, which song is better? Maybe More to Me or Patience.
echo, more to me, stonehands
i love this song but i don't know if i can call it better than anything from separation without hearing the whole album
can't wait to see them this fall with title fight. I've heard mixed opinions about them live, so I'll have to see for myself.
so fucking boring
Awesome song. Sounds like ti will be much different than Separation.
Digging: Ne Obliviscaris - Citadel
dig it. as long as they don't completely stray away from the intense stuff like "i tore you apart" & "patience" I don't mind a few songs like this.
completely disagree. cliche as it is, i liked their more aggressive songs and found much of the rest of the album to be boring. this song is better than like half their discography.
It's good.
Digging: Lux Occulta - Ko?ysanki
So good, Jon absolutely sucks live though
Does anyone else think it's weird that it's on Pitchfork?
Good song.
Mabbitt, you talking about the pitchfork article?
Sounds like Turnover
Great song.
Digging: Pianos Become the Teeth - Keep You
What do P4K mean when they say "cereal is no longer an acceptable dinner option"?
Crazy, just crazy!
cereal is always an acceptable dinner option.
Good song, I have been waiting for this album for awhile.

Neutrino experiment now creates anti-neutrinos
Lancaster physicists working on the T2K neutrino experiment are participating in a major step toward understanding why the universe exists.
Neutrinos are tiny particles that pass through matter almost unimpeded, yet they may be responsible for the preponderance of matter over anti-matter in the early universe. They come in three types, and change from one type to another as they travel.
This month, T2K has restarted its beam after a maintenance shutdown, and for the first time has begun producing a beam that is predominantly composed of the anti-matter equivalent of neutrinos: anti-neutrinos.
Lancaster physicists have produced specialized computer algorithms to select data that correspond to a particular type of anti-neutrino interaction. Analysing these data and comparing them with data from neutrino interactions will allow the physicists to look for differences in the behaviour of neutrinos and anti-neutrinos. Such differences could help to account for the existence of the universe.

Workington white goods firm plans expansion
Last updated at 20:09, Thursday, 26 April 2012
A Workington white goods firm plans to expand by moving to new premises and creating at least three full-time jobs.
Genesis Home Appliances wants to take over the former Graham & Bowness showroom near its existing premises at Clay Flatts.
A planning application has been lodged with Allerdale council to change the building's use to a warehouse and sales area.
Agent Bob Metcalfe, of MJN Associates, said that the business, which sells items including ovens, washing machines and tumble dryers, hoped to take over the premises by the summer.
He said if planning permission is granted, negotiations for the showroom would take place.
If it managed to buy the building, Genesis would close its current premises and move there.
Graham & Bowness recently closed after more than 30 years in the town, with the loss of 11 jobs.
John Riley, director of Genesis Home Appliances, declined to comment last night.
