Chocolate Cake For Breakfast?
- PotatoHouse May 21, 2013 10:34 AM
Thinking about Bill Cosby's bit about giving his children chocolate cake for breakfast and his wife's resulting reaction, makes me wonder. Have any of you fed your children (or yourself) something for breakfast that your spouse (or parent) had a "negative reaction" to?
re: jrvedivici
I have to agree with you about inappropriate breakfasts. I eat lunch early, usually, and I'm not actually hungry before then, but if I eat breakfast, and I don't do it often on weekdays, it's gonna be something other than dry toast and a half a banana. Not necessarily with the whole smorgasbord, but it would be an omelet, or chicken fried steak (the ones at work on Wednesday are tasty and nice and small, but satisfying), or a quesadilla or menudo or an omelet or a couple of fried eggs or three. Or dim sum on a Sunday- that's a meal that will last until the next day as far as I'm concerned. So sue me.
It didn't get a negative reaction from anybody but the most bizarre thing my son ate for breakfast was, all one winter, sweet potatoes. We had bought a bushel of them and he loved them. I had to leave for work before he had to get up for (senior high) school so I would put a big sweet potato in the oven to bake and when he got up it would be ready. He would eat it busted open and filled with butter and brown sugar and have three or four glasses of milk with it. Did not seem the worst thing for him to have in his stomach as he set out in the snow---but...unconventional.
re: Querencia
Doesn't seem to me like a bad thing to eat at all. In fact, I may try that. I love sweet potatoes. The more I think about it, the better it sounds- fiber, vitamins, minerals, fiber, natural sweetness, wow. I'm going to the store tomorrow and get a few sweet potatoes for my breakfasts. I can take them to work and gobble them down there.
Thank you for that suggestion.
re: Querencia
Funny, Querencia, I did this during my Senior year too! Except I topped mine with a dollop of plain yogurt and cinnamon in addition to the butter. So comforting.
"Daddy's great - he gave us chocolate cake!" I love that episode!
Sr. Swanky gave me a hard time the other day for giving my boys hot buttered mini pretzels for breakfast. I told him, "Think of them as savory waffles!"
Take said chocolate cake, put it into cupcake form, replace frosting with chocolate chips, and then mega-size it and call it a muffin. Now it's a legitimate breakfast!
My mother still remembers her H.S./college boyfriend who ate ice cream for breakfast.
Hey it's milk and calories!
(But she married my dad....and thus I grew up eating eggs and pancakes)
Class B Cosby bit! Still enjoy it.
About 10 years ago, a dear friend asked us to "house" her wedding cake (top tier) in our freezer while she & the hubby went on a month long honeymoon. When they returned they decided they didn't want the cake after all-told us to dispose of it. Well...why toss perfectly good wedding cake!
I fed my nieces for a week with wedding cake. They love their Auntie J.
While attending college and house sharing one roommate nabbed a job on the pie line at Delicious Orchards and was keeping most of us in the house well fed on broken pies their pie dept could not sell. Good times :) pie for breakfast (lunch and/or dinner).
50+ years ago in Whitehouse Station, NJ, many of our "breakfasts" (especially on weekends) were supplied by Scottie, the one-legged baker, who made the absolute best crumb cake and "sticky" buns as well as world-class hard rolls. Totally acceptable, it wasn't much of a reach that years later a big hunk of chocolate cake or, better yet, a large slice of strawberry-rhubarb pie would be consumed with coffee for the morning meal. These days, I still do it if available. Lately, I've been into the TastyKake Peanutbutter Kandy Bar Kakes or Biscoff Crunchy spread on toast. The only negative reaction would come from my doctor.......if he knew about it.
Our son is decidedly a non breakfast food kid. His typical breakfast is leftovers from dinner and is partial to spaghetti and meatballs, beef and bean burritos, leftover steak or burgers. I doubt there is anything my husband could feed him that I would have a negative reaction to, even cake. On his birthday every year he does get ice cream for breakfast.
When he was about 3 1/2 he had a huge bowl of haggis for breakfast. He then asked for seconds "with eggs, mom". When I asked what kind he said "just egg" so I cracked an egg over the haggis and a he ate every bite. My husband did raise an eyebrow about the raw egg but got over it.
re: foodieX2
Oh hell to the yes on leftovers- that's the best breakfast ever, in fact this morning I was hoping there were a couple of Costco cooked ribs left over, and thought I found some- alas, it was a bag of the bones. Sad face is me. I would have gobbled them down as soon as I got to work. Leftover pizza, pasta, casserole, enchiladas, wow. Great breakfasts, all.
I was single when I did this, but I used to frequently have oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for breakfast. Hey, it had oatmeal in it, and that's breakfasty right? Pretty sure my SO would judge me if I did that in front of him haha!
Then there's the usual stuff like cold leftover pizza.
I personally don't see an issue with chocolate cake for breakfast. Many breakfast foods are sugar bombs anyway... so how is that different than say, coffee cake or danish?
A friend has eaten oatmeal with a scoop of ice cream on top for years. Hey, milk and sugar, right? My next door neighbor, raised on a farm in Central Illinois, serves - very occasionally, she laughs - leftover cake "if there ever is any!" in a bowl with milk on it for breakfast, which is an old family habit, she says.
re: lemons
Haha - that's exactly how a dear friend of ours eats his cake. Others skeeve it, but I think it's perfect breakfast fare!
Angelfood cake with fresh berries, under the theory it has more protein (egg whites) and probably not much more sugar than cereal.
As a kid, cold chicken Rice-a-Roni.
re: kaleokahu
I used to have a slice of pecan pie while the last piece of mom's lasagna was reheating with a little water in her small Revereware skillet. Maybe a Coke and a smoke for dessert.
dinner leftovers; hot or cold noodle soup; cake; apple pie; cookies. Basically, everything that I eat (or most things that my kids had) would cause my MIL angst.
About a month and a half ago, my husband and I had chocolate cake and ice cream for breakfast on my step-daughter's birthday. She had school and then was going to her mother's house for visitation, and wouldn't be back until bedtime.
DH was actually surprised that I went along with it, but he was all for it.
Whenever I make a tiramisu, if there's any leftover I look forward to having some for breakfast. With coffee. Yeah, I know coffee's IN IT but I also drink coffee WITH IT. You got a problem with that?
re: pdxgastro
Oh my gosh -- no problem at all! That's friggin' brilliant!
re: JudiAU
Plus 2 for pie! The secret of course is to game it so you are the first one downstairs.
re: JudiAU
Breakfast pie is the best! One of my favorite things about the Friday after Thanksgiving...multi-course breakfast of different pies.
re: debbiel
Breakfast the day after Thanksgiving is always pumpkin pie. That's a healthy serving of vegetables!
Strangely enough, it was my grandma who introduced me to the "birthday privilege" of cake for breakfast---the day after your birthday, you get to have leftover cake for breakfast.
My husband thinks this is a little strange, but how is cake significantly different than donuts or pastry for breakfast, at least in terms of nutrition?

The Clear Lake boys golf team improved its record to 21-7 overall and 5-2 in the North Central Conference with impressive performances last week.
CL 178, St. Ed's 182

"Treslyn came through for us tonight," said Coach Eric Perry. "He battled hard all night. It was a 'grind it out' night with 40 mph winds that were steady at that speed.

After being totally bored last weekend & staying home w/ my teenage son, who was also bored (the only thing we could think of to do was go out to dinner cause it was very hot too), this weekend I went out both nights.
Friday night was a bust. I had made plans to go with one friend to a ballroom dancing place that I had been to before that is very nice, then she got sick. So some other friends were going to a singles dance--I really hate them (the dances, not the friends) but the alternative was staying home cause it was last minute. There were 6 of us who met up there. I was dressed up nicely--not one man asked me to dance, can you believe it? There were a couple of men there that my friends knew and not even those guys asked me (although I didn't care for either one of them, but I like dancing). A couple of my friends were getting asked to dance a lot. The only good thing was that our group ended up with 3 free bottles of wine. I won a drawing and then they do this kind of match game where they give out cards & you are supposed to find the man with the matching card--well my girl friend ended up with the same card as me, so one of the guys took that card and said "look, we will go out & say that we matched up." The man at the desk said "this can't be--both of you have the cards marked women" but the friend said "I can't help it if you gave me a woman's card by mistake" so they believed him & gave up 2 bottles of wine and then he said he had plenty of wine at home so he let us keep it. So for the price of $15, I got wine and a piece of cake--wow! After that, my most wild & crazy friend wanted to go to this nightclub that was next door for Latin music night--I like that music and it's very frustrating because I know how to dance it very well, but again, no dancing. Oh yes, one guy asked me to dance and then he turned out to be creepy--he was trying to grab my rear and he was saying about how he liked curvy women and then he asked if I wanted to go out with him--when I said no, he stopped dancing with me. lol And to top off the night, I met one of my dance teachers there & he said he had been to the ballroom place that I was originally going to & some other people I knew were there, so that probably would have been a good night. It's a dilemma because a couple of my friends really like going to this place, but I always hate it--but I liked the woman and hate always saying no. But it's just not enjoyable to me, so I think I'll just say that I like doing things with them, but just call me when they are going somewhere else.
Then last night a different friend & I went to a swing dance--it was a totally different atmosphere. If you keep going to these dances, you keep seeing the same people, so by now there are always a few people I recognize. It's not about being picked up for a date--it's more about the dancing, so when the guys find out you can dance, then they ask you. I danced with at least 7 different men, so it was not boring in the least, plus it was live music w/ a really good band, so at least if you're not dancing, you can enjoy the music. There were also people there from a meetup group that I belong to and the one guy who is the organizer of the group I met once before. He was very friendly and I don't know if he's interested but at least he seems like someone I could get to know better & be friends with. I signed up for a meetup in a couple of weeks that's at a bar with a band & he will be there.

I want to program a cgi to transfer a piece of audio together with a text/html back to the browser. The audio can be a explanation to the file or even a some music. I need it because the file is in English and the audio explanation is in Chinese, and the audio should be immediately played without a user to click. So, can I transfer different types of contents in a single message? From the http draft I can see no hint whether it is possible or impossible. Thanks!

Eli Manning wasn't included this year's "Madden" cover vote -- the Giants were represented by Victor Cruz and Jason Pierre-Paul -- but the quarterback didn't shy away from participating in a Saturday Night Live skit spoofing himself in motion-capture gear this weekend.
In the skit, Manning struggles to come up with a usable touchdown dance for the Madden creative team.
The funniest part of the skit, in my opinion, was Keenan Thompson's depiction of Ray Lewis refusing to put on the "funky-looking pajamas," and the Madden producers being afraid to argue with him.
And the portrayal of Tim Tebow is pretty good, even if the actor doesn't look much like the Jets quarterback.

text: David Johnson The price is all about the quantity (and scarcity of finding one from Panini) not the quality. its easy to find the cards in a box of UpperDeck compared to finding one in Panini. The Panini cards are inserted in packs randomly and as redemptions (which means pack searchers will have a harder time finding them) and they have a very limited production. The UpperDeck cards are inserted in a special bonus pack not normal packs. It's easy to find which box in a case has the bonus pack, which means dealers or case breakers can find the single pack and sell it sealed or open it and sell it, and then resell the rest of the case. You won't find a random pack in a box that just might have a video card in it from UpperDeck, however you have that chance when its a redemption card from Panini. This will just add to the scarcity of the Panini cards, as some of the redemptions won't be found for a long time. Posted July 11, 2011 at 5:35 pm | Permalink

MWW Automotive Reports Financial Results For The First Fiscal Quarter 2013
This has been achieved while at the same time reducing our gross loss from operations by nearly 30% and only slightly increasing the net loss from operations, caused by the necessary expansion in expectation of higher production volume. We expect to significantly improve our performance in the third and fourth quarter 2013 and report positive cash flow from operating activities. While 2012 has been our year to assure the company's survival, the focus for 2013 will be on the aggressive expansion of our business model of diversification and on a more economical approach to financing the company's expansion in support of our share price."
REVENUES Net revenues were $193,974 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Our revenues decreased by $29,615 from the three months ended December 31, 2011. This decrease is attributable to the fact that some of the new programs that had already been awarded still have been significantly delayed. At the same time our team was focused on the pre-production of a number of already awarded projects and aggressively pursuing additional business, with a focus on immediate production start.
GROSS LOSS For the three months ended December 31, 2012, MWW has significantly improved its Gross Loss, which was $26,249 (13.5) in the 1 st quarter of 2013, compared to a gross loss of $91,684 (41.05) for the three months ended December 31, 2012. This improvement is based on the fact that MWW sold a greater percentage of its higher margin products during the first quarter of 2013 than in the same period during 2012. The primary components of cost of sales are direct labor and cost of parts and materials. The cost of parts and materials has been consistent from year to year.
OPERATING EXPENSES Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $350,176 (180% of revenues) in 2012 compared to $253,026 (113% of revenues) during 2011. The increase in costs is attributable to additional production and management staffing added at Colortek, as we carefully ramp up towards future revenue. Management intends to keep costs comparatively low, so that increasing product volume and revenue will result in improving profit margins and eventually net profits. Significant components of operating expenses consist of professional fees, salaries, and impairment losses, some of them accrued or non-cash.Net Income – Earnings per ShareNet income available to common stockholders improved to a profit of $4,047,258, generated earnings per share of $0.02 in the first quarter of 2013 compared to a ($2,128,659) loss in the first quarter of 2012 an increase of $6,175,917. This increase was partially based on the change in the fair market value of the derivative liabilities. At the same time total liabilities decreased from $16,245,335 in 2012 to $11,883,752 in 2013 and generated earnings per share of $0.02 in Q1 of 2013 as opposed to a loss of $0.02 per share in Q1 of 2012.

Oakley Elevate Goggle
Perfect goggles
I think these are very underrated goggles. I've had the last two versions of A-frames, but was never 100% happy with the fit or peripherals. The Elevates fit my face better and I prefer the squared off geometry. Also goes well with my giro revolver helmet. HI yellow for flat/low light and blue iridium for sunny days is the perfect combination and worked well during my whistler trip--HI yellow really saved my ass during a white out. Love these goggles.

How to Make Simple Mashed Potatoes
Mashed potatoes are a great side dish and are very cheap and easy to make! This recipe shows how to create smooth and creamy mashed potatoes without lumps or skins. Makes enough for two people.
- 4 or 5 average-sized potatoes
- 1/2 or 1 cup of milk (depending on how creamy you want the potatoes to be)
- 2 or 3 tbsp butter
- salt to taste
1Wash the potatoes.Ad
2Peel and cut each potato in half or into quarters (this makes them cook much faster).
3Boil them for about 15 minutes, or until a potato falls apart when you poke it with a fork.
4While the potatoes are boiling, heat up milk until warm and get some butter out of the fridge.
5Drain the water from the pot and place back on the stove. If you want, you can turn on the stove again on the lowest heat setting to make sure that the mashed potatoes are hot when you're done.

A recent report by the Muskie School and the Maine Department of Health and Human Services provides a new way of looking at the state's long term support system. With an emphasis on developing a common approach for description and analysis across programs, the profile reveals that users of long term services and supports in Maine span all age groups and types of service users. In fact, 28% are ages 17 or younger and 29% are between the age of 35 and 64. Long term service users include people with physical impairments, cognitive and intellectual disabilities, and people who need behavioral health support. In Maine, these long term service users account for two-thirds of total Medicaid expenditures.

Sept. 3 — The Environmental Protection Agency has granted the first-ever Class VI underground injection permits for carbon dioxide to FutureGen Industrial Alliance Inc., which plans to construct an innovative near zero-emission, coal-fired power plant in southern Illinois.
In a statement released Sept. 2, the EPA said it approved a permit proposal for the FutureGen 2.0 carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) project, allowing for carbon sequestration near Jacksonville, Ill.
The agency's approval marks the first time the EPA has issued permits for carbon sequestration.
The action follows the Department of Energy decision earlier this year to issue a favorable record of decision, allowing for construction of the FutureGen 2.0 power facility.
EPA said it completed a technical review of the permits and responded to more than 280 public comments before granting final approval. FutureGen may begin drilling the wells next month in preparation for injecting liquefied carbon dioxide. The four wells will be drilled to a depth of approximately 4,000 feet.
The nonprofit alliance is made up of coal mining and electric power companies that include Alpha Natural Resources Inc., Anglo American SA, Joy Global Inc. and Peabody Energy Corp.
EPA said FutureGen 2.0 plans to annually capture and inject 1.1 million metric tons of carbon dioxide for 20 years. The agency noted that the CCS project would have the effect of removing the carbon emissions of the equivalent of 232,000 automobiles.
The FutureGen Alliance project will modernize boiler units at the Meredosia Energy Center with oxy-combustion technology to capture 90 percent of the carbon emissions, and will reduce other emissions to near-zero levels.
The project originally was proposed by former President George W. Bush a decade ago. It received support from the administration of President Barack Obama in 2010, which pledged $1 billion through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
Ken Humphreys, chief executive officer of FutureGen Alliance, said the approval paves the way for further development of the project.
"The issuance of the permit is a major milestone that will allow FutureGen 2.0 to stay on track to develop the first ever commercial-scale, near-zero emissions coal-fueled power plant with integrated carbon capture and storage," Humphreys said in a statement.
"The Alliance appreciates the work the EPA has done to complete the permitting process," he said. "This new class of permit offers a superior level of environmental protection, monitoring, and financial assurances."
Despite action on the FutureGen 2.0 permits, the long-delayed project continues to face challenges. The power facility continues to be the target of a complaint brought by the Sierra Club before the Illinois Pollution Control Board. The Sierra Club objects to potential air pollution from the project. FutureGen 2.0 also faces a September 2015 deadline to use $1 billion in Recovery Act funding.

Didier Vassal, Vice President OEM and Maritime Services at Victaulic, compares the flanged and grooved pipe-joining methodologies and explains the advantages that grooved pipe joints provide over flanges.
Efficient piping systems are essential for the range of services needed on board a vessel including secondary systems such as bilge and ballast systems, sea and fresh water cooling, lube oil, fire protection and deck wash.
For these systems, where piping class permits, an effective pipe-joining alternative to welding/flanging is the use of grooved mechanical joints which offer a range of technical, economic and practical benefits. These include enhanced performance; faster, simpler installation and maintenance and weight reduction on board.
Performance Issues
In a flanged pipe joint, two mating flanges are bolted together and compress a gasket to create a seal. As the bolts and nuts of a flanged joint absorb and compensate for system forces, over time the bolts and nuts can stretch and lose their original tightness due to pressure surges, system working pressure, vibration and thermal expansion and contraction. When these bolts experience torque relaxation, the gasket will lose its compressive seal, which can result in varying degrees of leakage.
Depending on the location and function of the piping system, leaks can be costly and hazardous, resulting in maintenance/repair downtime and exposure to risk. Gasket replacement will be required when the joint is taken apart, as the gasket will bond to the flange faces during the course of time. When the joint is disassembled, the gasket will need to be scraped from both flange faces and these surfaces will need to be cleaned before the gasket is replaced, again increasing maintenance downtime. Due to the bolting forces along with system expansion and contraction, flange gaskets can also develop compression "set" over time, presenting another cause of leakage.
The design of a grooved mechanical pipe joint overcomes these performance issues. A groove is first formed in the pipe end and the piping connection is secured by a coupling which houses a resilient, pressure-responsive elastomer gasket. The coupling housing fully encloses the gasket, reinforcing the seal and securing it in position as the coupling engages and forms a positive interlock into the pipe groove. The latest coupling technology enables pipes up to 24" (600mm) in diameter to be fully assembled with only two nuts and bolts in order to secure the self-restraining joint. The mechanical joint creates a triple seal due to the design relationship between the pipe, gasket and housings, which is enhanced when the system is pressurized.
Rigid and Flexible Couplings
Available in both rigid and flexible forms, grooved mechanical pipe couplings are Class Society Type Approved, and may be used in lieu of welded/flanged methods in 30 systems, subject to installation criteria established by each certifying agency.
Rigid couplings are used, for example, around areas such as manifolds and valves, where they offer easier access and replacement than flanges. By nature of their design, rigid couplings also provide axial and radial rigidity comparable to flanged or welded joints.
Flexible couplings have advantages in applications where relative movement between the pipe and supporting structure is anticipated, in addition to pipe movement resulting from thermal expansion or vibration. Expansion and contraction can stress the flange and piping, which can compromise the gasket over time. When this occurs, the joint is at risk of leaking. Grooved flexible couplings can accommodate pipe displacement in the form of axial movement or angular deflection. For this reason they are ideal for installing long piping runs especially between blocks where high seas can cause flanges to loosen over time, resulting in leaks and the risk of pipe separation. Both rigid and flexible couplings also provide the benefit of noise and vibration attenuation, eliminating the need for specialised noise reduction components and perishable rubber bellows or similar items.
Using a mechanical grooved piping system can speed up and simplify both installation and maintenance and improve the efficiency of onboard piping systems.
Ease of Installation
On initial installation, bolt holes of a flange must be precisely aligned and then tightened to hold the joint. The bolt-hole index on equipment inlets and outlets must also line up perfectly with the flange on the piping to be connected to the unit. With only one of a number of fixed positions determined by the number of holes in a flange, a fitting or valve can only be rotated to match the bolt holes. Additionally, the opposite end of the flanged pipe must also line up with its mating flange, which further increases assembly difficulty and the risk of misalignment.
Grooved piping systems do not have this problem and allow much more convenient installation with a full 360-degree rotation available for the pipe and mating components. There is no bolt-hole pattern to line up, and a coupling can be oriented at any position around the joint. The coupling can be rotated around the pipe to provide easy access to the bolts and simplify access to the equipment.
In addition to eliminating misalignment during installation, a coupling's 360-degree orientation capabilities, together with its smaller profile compared to a flange, make the installation of grooved systems ideal for confined spaces.
Additionally, the installer can orient all of the assembly bolts on each joint in the same position to ease system inspection and maintenance.
Flanges are roughly twice the outside diameter of the pipe they are attached to. On average, grooved couplings are only half this size. The size advantage of the smaller design makes the grooved system ideal for jobs where space is limited, such as deck and wall penetrations - a fact recognised as far back as the 1930s when Victaulic couplings were originally used in U.K. shipyards.
Speed of Assembly
Because couplings have fewer bolts and no torque requirements up to 12" (300mm), grooved piping is much faster to install than flanging. Unlike flanges that must be welded to the pipe end, grooved valve assemblies do not require welding, which further cuts installation time and eliminates potential heat damage to the valve while also reducing safety risks by eliminating hot works.
A comparison of a DIN 150 ballast line installed using Victaulic grooved products versus traditional joining methods showed a 66% reduction in total installation time required (150.47 man hours vs. 443.16 man hours). The time needed to install 52 slip-on flanges and weld elbows and tees compared with 60 rigid couplings showed the largest time differences.
Couplings require just two bolts up to 24" (600mm) pipe size. For comparison, at the higher size range a flange would require a minimum of 20 sets of nuts and bolts.
In addition, flanges require time-consuming star pattern tightening with specialised wrenches to measure and ensure that correct torque specifications are achieved. Grooved pipe technology allows couplings to be assembled using standard hand tools and the joint is properly installed once the mating bolt pads of the coupling housings meet metal-to-metal. A simple visual inspection confirms correct assembly. Flanges, on the other hand, do not provide visual confirmation: the only measure to ensure proper assembly is to fill and pressurise the system, check for leaks and retighten the joints as needed.
The same characteristics of grooved piping systems that accelerate installation—fewer bolts and no torque requirements — also make system maintenance or alteration a quick and simple task. To gain access to a pump or valve, for example, the two bolts of the coupling are loosened, and the housings and gasket are removed from the joint. In a flanged system, multiple bolts need to be removed. The same time-consuming bolt-tightening sequence required upon initial installation is also required upon reassembly of the flange.
Because they do not require retightening, couplings eliminate much of the routine maintenance associated with flanges. Unlike a flange that puts variable stress on the gasket, nuts and bolts, a coupling holds the gasket in precise compression from the outside of the pipe joint. Additionally, since coupling gaskets are not subjected to high compressive forces, they do not need to be replaced on a regular maintenance schedule, while flange gaskets need to be replaced when the system is disassembled for maintenance.
To attenuate system noise and vibration, flanged systems require rubber bellows or braided flexible hoses. These items can fail due to overextension and, with normal wear, need to be replaced every 10 years on average, incurring cost and system downtime. Mechanical grooved pipe couplings, however, last the life of the system. Their ability to accommodate system vibration reduces the risk of joint failure, without the need for speciality products that require periodic repair or replacement. The resilient elastomeric gasket contained within both flexible and rigid couplings is very durable and can handle significant operating pressures and cyclical loading. A system can be pressurized and depressurized repeatedly without fatiguing the elastomer gasket.
Weight reduction
Valve assemblies are typically constructed with flanged components. However, this joining method can add unnecessary weight to a piping system. A 6" (150mm) flanged valve assembly constructed with a lug butterfly valve, connected with weld-neck flanges and eight bolts and nuts on each side of the valve, weighs approximately 85 lbs. A 6" (150mm) valve assembly that utilizes a grooved-end butterfly valve, grooved-end pipe and two rigid couplings to connect the components weighs approximately 35 lbs, representing a 58% weight reduction over the flanged assembly. A grooved valve assembly is therefore, an ideal alternative for the shipbuilding industry.
The above-mentioned comparison of a DIN 150 ballast line installed showed a weight reduction of 30 percent (2,164 lbs vs. 3,115 lbs) when Victaulic grooved products were used instead of traditional joining methods. The 52 slip-on flanges, bolt sets and gaskets, versus 60 rigid couplings accounted for major weight increases in the welded/flanged system.
Weight reductions by using grooved pipe couplings instead of flanges are achievable across a range of pipe sizes. The magnitude of the reduction depends on the pipe diameter and type of coupling used. In tests where piping was connected using one Victaulic Style 77 coupling – the heaviest coupling in the range – compared with two light-weight PN10 slip-on flanges the total installed weight of the grooved assemblies was significantly lower. Weight reductions were recorded as follows: 4" (100mm) – 67 percent; 12" (300mm) - 54 percent; 20" (500mm) – 60.5 percent.
With the lighter-weight flexible Style 75 or rigid Style 07 couplings and/or a heavier type of flange, weight reductions of 70% are easily achievable. As an example, a 24" (600mm) flanged set for a TG2 system would weigh 507 lbs but a comparable assembly using Victaulic couplings would weigh only 88 lbs. Shipyards that have used grooved couplings in preference to flanges on selected systems have recorded weight savings of 12 tons on offshore support vessels and 44 tons on cruise ships.
The economic benefits of grooved technology to ship owners are clear: less weight means more cargo or passengers and less fuel consumption. It makes the handling of piping systems on board easier as well.
Growing Trend
Grooved piping systems can offer significant advantages over their flanged equivalents because of their speed of installation, maintainability and reduced weight. These characteristics, coupled with additional benefits such as reliability, ease of alignment and lower safety risks, are leading owners, engineers and shipyards to choose grooved mechanical systems instead of flanges.
This growing trend towards the use of grooved technology is supported by suppliers of equipment such as heat exchangers, box coolers and chillers, along with valve and compressor manufacturers, many of whom are now providing their products with grooved end connections. The range of services where grooved pipe couplings may be used is steadily increasing. Building on successful applications in water systems, Victaulic is continuing its long history of innovation to develop fire-resistant gaskets and gain Type Approval for their use on maritime fuel services.

1. As you start to write you might have a sharp point, but as you continue to write the point is worn down and thus your line widths are not uniform. This can also lead to smudgy and thick lines.
2. If you pick the pencil up and happen to start writing with the tip of the angled point, it is likely to scratch or catch on the paper.
3. The different angles at which the pencil lead comes in to contact with the paper is a common cause of lead breakage.
The Kuru Toga, on the other hand, has a core rotation mechanism that continually rotates the pencil lead as you write. The lead is twisted through a spring-loaded clutch, it works by twisting incrementally every time you lift the pencil up (i.e. during printing words, etc). This allows a uniform wearing of the pencil lead so that it always remains as a pointed tip. Not only does it solve the above problems, but it also gives you an amazingly thin line. You are effectively using only 50% of the lead area that you were previously using with your old mechanical pencil. Thus, a 0.3 mm Kuru Toga will write incredibly thin lines and have less breakage than a standard 0.3 mm mechanical pencil.

I ordered this alongside the 0.5mm KT, and I can say the exact same things - it's great. One 'gotcha' with the 0.3mm though is that the lead is so thin that the rotation doesn't do quite as much as on the 0.5mm. It still works, though the difference isn't quite as dramatic. I've read that certain types of lead wear more slowly which makes a difference (I have the HB AIN lead currently) so that may help as well.

Fan. Tastic.
I never noticed before owning this pen that I actually developed a twitch wherein I would manually rotate my pencil every word or so to avoid an ultra-sharp point on the lead. I have to train myself out of that habit with the kuru toga, because my manual rotation keeps the pencil from doing what it says it will. However, with an unmoving hand, this pencil is wonderful. The 0.3 lead has the strength of an 0.7 with a nice, ultra-fine line.

Great pencil! Love using it! Mine's orange, and I love that no one else in the office can mistake it for one of their own boring drab pencils. Auto-rotating lead and a clear mechanism make this a great pencil.

Our dear dad had his 65th birthday today! We celebrated on Sunday and it was a grand time for us and for him too I think. My sister, Betsy, organized a large-group present… She asked several family & friends to write a note to him with a memory story they shared in the past with Dad. This was the end result…
It was tons of fun to listen to him read them-all 65… Lots of memories.
To sum life's education with Charley as your father… Here are some frequently heard quotes from Dad growing up. (Please don't be offended by a lack of context or some farmer humor)
"I've got a bulletin for ya." (Similar to 'I've got news for you…')
"If you eat too much pizza, you'll get pizza butt." (Don't eat too much)
"If you eat like a bird, you'll look like a bird." (Don't eat too little)
"I know." {everything implied here}
"That's crap."
"I'm on a need to know basis."
"You gotta know where your bread is buttered." (Know what you are good at)
"Poor people have poor ways." (Repeated from Great Grandma Clara) [And really there's lots of wisdom in that]
"It's just more stuff to dust." (Meaning home decor or trinkets)
"I'm just resting my eyes." (Aka napping)
"Come with me, I need your help." (Every son-in-law should be afraid…)
"Learning by doing" (Evidently this was the 4-H motto during Dad's childhood)
We love you Dad! Happy birthday! Thanks for all you've taught us, but especially for taking us to church to meet Jesus, showing us what a loving marriage & father looks like and teaching us what hard work is & that it's worth it.

An additional overlay, recorded separately and dubbed in later. In the case of the "trombone sweetener" from Tribbles, they were an effect recorded in real time with the intention of being sped up to get a unique sound. We had the original real time takes and presented one of them on here as a bonus. If you know the score, it's really wild hearing it at the recorded speed.

How can I afford to stay home with my baby?
I want to be a stay-at-home mom more than anything in the world. Even though I know I have to work for financial reasons, I can't help wishing my life were different, being depressed, crying all the time, being jealous of my friends who stay home, and fighting with my husband every day about not wanting to leave our 8-month-old. This is ruining our marriage, but I don't know how to just accept it. Please help!

I too was facing the wanting to stay home delimea. I am in the early stages of pregnancy and after i have my baby i want to stay home. I found an amazing company that allows me to work from home. www.feedomathometeam.com/40538965 this generates some awesome income. I am now able to stay home once my baby is born. I am so excited. Hope this helpsposted 09/09/2007 by dbean27
I understand how u feel! I have a beautiful 8 mth old and im going back to work part time when she is 10 months. We have to finanically no way can we pay our mortage unless I work. I do love my job but i have felt guilt and uncertainty. My husband will babysit and our families so lucky for their support. This also reduces costs. i have talked to so many of my friends about my feelings - all of them but 2 has had or will be returning part time and some full time. It is almost unheard of now for mums to be able to saty home full time for years families just cant seem to afford it with mortages these days. When i talk to my friends common thing is the first day was hard and then after that better....their advice has been use that time for yourself, enjoy the break and then when you are home you can purely focus on them. i have told myself not to stress about this now, this is life, the way it is and my time with her is positive.posted 09/01/2007 by a BabyCenter Member

My husband and I live on $2,000 a month and I am a stay at home mom with 2 children. We lack nothing. We can do it, so can you! Here is how: 1. Tithe your money. 2. Breastfeed - you don't have to waste money on formula and it is better for you and your child. (Saves about $150/month) 3. Start cooking - My husband and I eat breakfast, snacks, lunch and dinner on $5-$7 a day because I make my own breads and cook everything from scratch 4. Cut the cable, internet, and cell phones if you have to 5. Stop using gas to run around. Plan and be frugal. 6. Shop at thrift stores and yard sales. Stop buying things new. Don't shop at the mall. 7. Do your own nails. Stop stopping in for pedicures. 8. Be frugral about your utilities. 9. Find free and creative entertainment Most women who work out of the home only earn $20 profit a week because after gas, eating out, dry cleaning, and daycare you have pretty much run yourself into a cirlce!posted 08/21/2007 by melindascott
I am somewhat on the fence on this subject. I do stay at home with my daughter but I also work part-time. My husband works a second shift so he stays home with her in the morning while I'm at work and then I get home and he goes to work. I love my job and would love to work full time but I also see the value of raising our own child. Also there is alot to sacrifice to be a stay at home mom. We pretty much don't do much socializing and most of the money we do make goes towards bills and stuff, but we figured out by the time we paid daycare, extra gas, extra formula, extra diapers it wouldn't be worth it. Alot of moms want to stay home with their children but you need to look at what are you willing to sacrifice in order to do that, we gave up a social life beside just going and visiting friends and family at home.posted 08/20/2007 by tatkoz
My daughter was born in June, and I knew from the time I got pregnant that I wanted to stay at home, your children are only little once! I watch 2 kids for extra money, most daycares in my area charge $175 a week for infants, I charge $100-i dont have as much time as I would like with my daughter, but I dont miss a thing of her growing, and I know she is taken care of. There are definitely days when taking care of 3 children is hard, but worth every second when I look at my daughter.posted 08/19/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
Okay, first of all...calm down. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. There are pros and cons to staying home with the baby ( or in my case twin babies). The pros are you get to spend all of your time with your little one and experience every laugh, cry and poopy diaper. You save money on daycare and the gas money to get them there. The cons are you spend every waking moment with babies. It could be several days before you have an adult conversation, a decent shower, or a moment of peace for yourself. I worked full-time for the first 6 months of my babies life and I felt that I didn't get to spend much time with them. Now that I'm here with them all of the time, I long for some time away. Also, remember that in order for your child to have a healthy childhood, you and your husband MUST have a healthy relationship. If your finances won't let you stay at home, consider something part-time to meet the financial needs but still allow time with your child.posted 08/16/2007 by jomo12282
There are 3 things that you will never have the money to do: 1)Get married, 2) Have children and 3) Have the mother stay home w/ the children. There will always be things that you have to sacrifice in order to do what you feel is right. I'm pregnant w/ our first and am working as much overtime as I can while in my 2nd trimester so we can get rid of some of our unwanted credit card bills, and other payments. My husband is still a student and is looking to go to med school so we're going to have no money for a long time. You just have to figure out what your priorities are and stick to them. My husband and I both agree that I need to stay home and raise our children as they come to us. We don't want someone else to raise them whether it's daycare or a babysitter. I have to stay home. You just do it. My mom stayed home for years and at 50 is just now going back to work and w/o any experience got hired as a manager at a hotel b/c she was a stay at home mom; they knew she could handle the job. We still had lessons and played sports but until my sophmore year of high school my parents only had one car. That's how they felt they could have my mom stay home. I loved coming home from school to find my mom. I wouldn't trade those precious moments for anything. No one can replace you in your child's life-no one.posted 06/18/2007 by rachel_robertson24
