Veterinary Teaching Hospital in Idaho & Oregon
We are pleased to provide Post-Graduate Veterinary training at WestVet.
With pets becoming a more integral part of our families, owners want the very best medical treatment available. This has led to significant advances in veterinary technology, as well as demand for more expertise and depth of knowledge in medical and surgical disciplines. As a result, veterinary specialists are needed now more than ever.
Additionally, many graduating veterinarians entering general practice find that employers require more experience and proficiency. As a result, many specialty practices have started internship programs—previously only offered by veterinary schools and universities. One-year internships enable recent veterinary school graduates to gain valuable postgraduate training prior to entering general practice or applying to specialty residencies. It has been said that a one-year rotating internship is equivalent to three years of general practice.
In 2007, WestVet accepted the challenge, responsibility, and honor of providing postgraduate education for our colleagues interested in specialization or becoming exceptional general practitioners. WestVet is the only veterinary hospital in the state of Idaho that offers postgraduate training, and one of only four private specialty hospitals in the Northwest offering a rotating internship. We currently offer a one-year rotating internship as well as one-year specialty internship in surgery. Washington State University and Oregon State University offer similar programs.
WestVet interns are selected through the Veterinary Internship and Residency Matching Program(VIRMP) administered by the American Association of Veterinary Clinicians. After applications are submitted through the VIRMP website in December, applicants undergo a thorough selection and interview process by our Internship Selection Committee. Qualified applicants begin training in June of each year. Our application process ensures that each incoming intern is truly the cream of the crop—they have graduated at or near the top of their veterinary class, have outstanding recommendations from university faculty, and many have won academic awards or scholarships from their veterinary school.
Applicants must obtain an Idaho veterinary license prior to the start date of their program. Interns are employed as WestVet veterinarians and they receive standard benefits such as medical insurance, CE, paid vacation, licensure, and liability insurance.

Walking Horizon September 2013, I will bring out my debut cd under my band/project 'Walking Horizon'. The Album will called 'The Rising Sun', will incluse collaborations with different vocalist. and will include a lot of instrumental beats. It's still a long waiting time because finishing a CD with 12 tracks next to scool & work is a huge job. The songs are there, the final...
oh yeah, on Let It Go we didn't have our lead singer do the vocals, we had our keyboardist sing them, cause we didn't have enough time for the lead singer to memorize the lyrics. but thanks, also you should check out Sickly Sweet Demise, that's everyone's favorite. We're gonna be getting together again in Spring or something to do more, and better, stuff. And keep in mind that we had to go into our garage and practice for the first time ever for only 3 hours before we had to go into the studio. So if we had more than freaking 3 hours to practice then we would'v done a lot better haha. cause we barely even knew what songs we were doing or how we were gonna do them.

The primary object of the present invention is to provide a relatively simple, practical and reliable device to permit using a trailer as a semi-trailer and vice versa, one specific object being to provide a semi-trailer couplingwhich permits automatic coupling of a trailer to a tractor in such a manner that, after coupling has been realized, the trailer falls under the designation semitrailer, that is, is supported at the front end on a fifth wheel on the tractor, electrical power and pneumatical connections being established simultaneously with the mechanical coupling between the tractor and the trailer/semi-trailer. Another object of the invention is to provide a tractor trailer vehicle combination in which the front wheel pair of the trailer is adjustable between a ground engag ing position normal to the function of the trailer as a full trailer and a position in which said front wheel pair is free from the ground and the trailer functions as a semi-trailer, and the vehicle combination includes a device by means of which, after the trailer has been coupled as a semi-trailer said wheel pair is adjustable between said positions. Preferred embodiments of the tractor trailer vehicle combination according to the present invention have the characteristic features appearing from the appended subclaims. These and further features of and advantages gained by the invention will appear from the following description, reference being made to theaccompanying drawings in which: FIG. 1 is a side elevation of a tractor and a vehicle which is coupled as a semi-trailer to the tractor and is constructed for use also as a full trailer in accordance with the invention; FIG. 2 is a view of the vehicle shown in FIG.

The tractor 1 shown in FIG. 1 is equipped with an automatic semi-trailer coupling mechanism in accordance with the invention and also with a conventional trailer coupling mechanism. As shown in the FIGS. 1 and 2 the vehicle as a full trailer is equipped with a pair of front and rear wheels. The vehicle 2 isadapted to be used either as a full trailer or as a semi-trailer and is therefore equipped with a semi-trailer coupling mechanism as well as with a trailer coupling mechanism. The trailer coupling parts mounted on the tractor I and those mounted on the vehicle 2 may be of conventional design and are not described here in detail. However, certain elements of these parts are mentioned in the following and are shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. To permit using the vehicle 2 as asemi-trailer the front wheels 3 of the vehicle are adapted in accordance with the invention to be raised by means of a lifting device 4 from their normal lower, ground engaging position shown in FIG. 2 to an upper position shown in FIG. 1. The wheels are raised against the action of gravity and other means which tend to return them to and maintain them in their normal lower position in which the'vehicle when used as a full trailer is supported on the ground by its front and rear wheels. This lifting device 4 is of the pneumatic type in the illustrated embodiment. The automatic coupling mechanism according to the invention includes a lifting device 5 for height adjustment of a vertically movable upper frame section 6 which is supported on the main frame I of the vehicle 1. The upper frame section 6 is pivoted to the main frame 1' and supports the semi-trailer coupling member 7 of the tractor, which includes a fifth wheel 9 and is adapted for engagement with a complementary coupling member 8 mounted on the trailer 2 and comprising a king-pin 30. The height adjustment device 5 is a pneumatic type lifting device and is arranged between the vehicle frame 1' and the pivotally mounted vehicle section 6 to enable height adjustment of the fifth wheel 9 of the coupling member 7, which is mounted on the frame section 6. If desired, the height adjustment .device 5, can be used as spring means in combination with shock absorbers 10'(FIG. 3). After this general orientation about the mechanisms and devices according to the invention for using the trailer 2 as a semi-trailer and the variousv means provided for this purpose. the coupling mechanism 7, 8 proper will now be described more in detail. The two coupling members 7, 8 are shown engaged in side elevation in FIG. 3 and in vertical section in FIG. 6. The mechanical coupling member secured to the tractor comprises, as already mentioned, a fifth wheel 9 which is in the shape of a horseshoe (see FIG. 4) and a locking bolt 11 displaceably mounted centrally in the hollow space of the fifth wheel. The vertical locking bolt 11 is displaceable in a bearing bushing 12 which is connected to a vertically downwardly directed sleeve-shaped portion 14 of a plate 9' forming the bottom plate of the fifth wheel 9. The locking bolt 11 is sealed in relation to the bearing bushing 12 by means of a packing 15. The fifth wheel 9 is carried on the pivotally mounted upper frame structure 6 which in the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 4-6 consists of two parallel frame beams 16a, 16b which at their front ends are connected to the main frame 1 by fulcrums 17a, 17b. At their rear ends the two frame beams 16a, 16b are connected to fastenings at the underside of the fifth wheel 9 by means of rubber bearings 18a, 18b to allow a certain resilience of the fifth wheel relative to the two frame beams 16a, 16b. The locking bolt 11 which isdisplaceable in the hearing bushing 12 connected to the fifth wheel 9 is hollow and has an inner supporting flange 18 carrying an insulator body 19 which is inserted in the locking bolt and consists of for instance molded plastics material and contains air pressure and electrical power service lines which are described more in detail in the following. In the lower half of the hollow locking bolt 11 there is inserted a strong spring 20 which bears with its upper end against the supporting flange 18 and with its lower end engages the bottom of a compressed air box 21 connccted to the pivotally mounted vehicle frame section 6. The compressed air box 21 which in a bottom hole receives and snugly embraces an insert in the form of a sleeve 22 which contains an insulator body 23 of for instance plastics material with air pressure and electric power service lines leading from the tractor to the air pressure and electrical power connections in the insula tor body 19, is sealingly connected at its upper open" edge to the lower part of the sleeve 12, which is di rected downwardly from the fifth wheel 9, and contains a flexible annular diaphragm 24 which is tightly sccured between the two halves of the compressed air box 21 with its outer marginal portion and is tightly clamped against the underside of the locking bolt 11 with its inner circumferential margin by means of a clamping ring 25. The annular diaphragm 24 divides the space in the circular compressed air box 21 into a lower chamber 26 and an upper chamber 27. The upper chamber 27 is connected through an air conduit 28 to an air feed conduit in the tractor. By the supply of compressed air to the upper chamber 27 the diaphragm 24 can be urged downwardly towards the bot tom of the compressed air box 21, the diaphragm taking the locking bolt 11 along downwardly against the action of the spring 20 which tends to hold the locking bolt ll in the upper position engaged with the hollow king pin 30 which is part of the semi-trailer coupling member 8 secured to the trailer 2. in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 and in the modification shown in FIG, 9 the king pin 30 consists of a sleeve-shaped body having an upper flange 31 which is connected for example by means of bolts to the bottom plate 33 of a box-shaped frame section 32 at the front end of the semitrailer 2. At the lower end the king pin 30 has a flange 34 which in coupling position (see FIG. 6) engages in a groove 35 beneath a flange 36 along the inner circumference of the horseshocohaped fifth wheel 9 (cf. also FIG, 4). Owing to the engagement be wee h l king bolt 11 and the king pin 30 the latter is retained in its position in the horseshoe-shaped fifth wheel 9 with the annular flange 34 engaged in the groove 35 beneath the flange 36 of the fifth wheel 9. Vertical movement of the king pin 30 is prevented by the mutual engagement between the flanges 34 and 36. The front end 32 of the semi-trailer rests with the bottom plate 33 on the upper side of the fifth wheel 9, allowing for the requisite pivot movement. Wear of the coupling mechanism 7, 8 takes place between the king pin 30 and the fifth wheel 9, while the pull is essentially taken up by the locking bolt 11 which is mainly exposed to shear. ' Mounted in the upper part of the annular or sleeveshaped king pin 30 is an air pressure and electrical power connector member in the form of a box 40 at the ends of two flexible air hoses 41 and one or two flexible electrical cables 42 for supplying air pressure and electrical power from the tractor to the trailer. Said connector member 40 comprises a sleeve 43 and an extension 43' thereof and contains an, outer insulator body 44 and an upper insulator body 45 which correspond to the insulator bodies 19 and 23 in the locking bolt 1 l. The electrical power cables extend through the upper insulator body 45 to the upper end of the insulator body 44, which serves as a terminal block. The unit formed by the elements 40-45 is rotatably mounted in the sleeve-shaped king pin 30 and in the upper wall 46 of the frame section 32 at the front end of the tarailer 2. As will appear more clearly from the modification in FIG. 9 the unit 4045 described can be mounted in the sleeve-shaped king pin 30 by means of a self-lubricating flange bearing 47. A dirt protective element or gasket 48 may be connected to the unit 40-45 by means of bolts 49 and so arranged as to have sliding contact at 50 with the upper end of the king pin 30. The extension member 43 of the sleeve 43 may be sealed at the wall 46 by means of a labyrinth packing generally designated 51 and of the design illustrated in FIG. 9. in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 6 and 11 the electrical connection between the tractor 1 and the trailer/- sembtrailer 2 consists of two electrical cables 42 each containing three leads connected to three contact pins 54", 57-69 in the junction box 40 and 54'-56', SW59, respectively, in the insulator body 19 of the locking bolt 11, for instance in one cable a stop light lead, a lead for the left-hand direction indicator and a ground wire common to them, and in the other cable a lead for the right-hand direction indicator, a lead for parking light and a ground wire common to them. Of the two flexible air pressure conduits 41, one is a feed conduit for high pressure about l00 pounds per square inch m for the brakes of the trailer/semi-trailcr and for the wheel lifting device 4 of the trailer 2, while the other is an operating conduit for the brakes. The electrical contact pins which are arranged in the lock ing bolt 11 and which may have fixed contact elements have their counterpart in for instance movable contact pins in the insulator body 44 of the junction box 40. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 use is made of a single electrical cable having six leads. Electrical contact between the contact pins is ensured by pressure engagement which is realized on one hand in that the locking bolt 11 is urged upwardly by the spring 20 against the underside of the sleeve-shaped king pin 30, and on the other hand in that the contact pins 54* in the insulator body 44 include contact elements 63 urged downwardly by springs 62, as shown in detail in FIG. where a contact pin, e.g., 54 is shown. FIG. I2 shows one way of realizing connection between an air pressure line 41 in the coupling member 7 secured to the tractor and an air pressure line 41 in the coupling member 8 secured to the trailer/semitrailer 2. The tubes 70, 71 in the two insulator bodies 19, 44 may be of plastics material or metal, and connection between the tubes 70, 71 is realized by spring force in that the tube 70 in the locking bolt 11 of the coupling member 7 has a non-return valve 74 disposed in the widened end of the tube and loaded by a spring 72 into engagement with a valve seat 73, and a sleeve 75 movable against the action of the spring load on the non-return valve and having sealing means 76 for tight pressure engagement against the end of the tube 71. A locking ring 77 keeps the sealing means and the valve member of the non-return valve in position in the tube 70. This arrangement provides automatic closure of the .air pressure lines in the coupling mechanism member 7 in the disengaged state thereof. Coupling between the tractor l and the trailer vehicle 2 is realized by backing the tractor against the vehicle 2 when the latter occupies the position illustrated in FIG. 2, that is the vehicle 2 is supported with all wheels in ground contact in the manner ofa full trailer, but with the draw bar 80 raised in order not to obstruct the coupling operation. The correct height position of the fifth wheel 9 is set by means of the height adjustment device 5 which is operated by means of a control in the tractor driver's cabin and consists of a bellows which is connected to the air pressure feed system of the tractor and disposed between the main frame 1' of the tractor and the pivotally mounted upper frame structure 6 in the manner illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 6 and as described more in detail in the following. When the tractor is backed after the correct height has been set, the hollow king pin 30 secured to the trailer 2 is passed into the openlngof the fifth wheel 9 and into the groove 35 beneath the fifth wheel flange 36. However, to make this possible, the spring-loaded locking bolt 11 must first be pulled downwards out of the way, which is realized in that air is supplied to the compressed air box 21 for pulling down the locking bolt 11 against the action of the spring 20. When the king pin 30 has reached the correct final position in engagement with the fifth wheel 9 the locking bolt 11 is moved upwards. and into the king pin 30 by air being discharged from the compressed air box. The two coupling members 7 and 8 are now coupled together. However, in backing the tractorl against the trailer 2 it is difficult to ensure that the movement takes place with aligned longitudinal axes'of the tractor and the trailer, thereby guaranteeing that the air pressure and electrical power lines have been correctly connected. Correct connection also at a certain angular position of the tractor relative to the trailer 2 is made possible in that the unit 4045 in the coupling member 8 is rotatably mounted. To make manual angular setting unneccssary the unit 40-45 is provided with a pair of wedgeshaped or conical guide pins 81 (see FIGS. 8 and 9) which are adapted for engagement in complementary conical or wedge-shaped recesses 82 in the upper end of the coupling member 7 secured to the tractor. The recesses 82 have relatively wide upwardly facing mouths whereby the pins 81, which constitute male guides, can slide down into the recesses 82 which form female guides, the unit 40-45 being turned into correct position for establishing the described electrical connection and air pressure connection. To make a correct initial position possible for the unit 40-45 in the king pin 30 prior to connection, use is made ofa device illustrated in FIG. 8 and comprising a spring arm 84 which is connected at one end to a part 2' of the trailer/semitrailer 2 and which at the outer end carries a roller 85 for engagement in a recess 86 in the flange 31. In a preferred embodiment of the lifting device 5 for height adjustment of the upper frame section 6 said lifting device includes a sleeve-shaped vertical air bellows 90 which at the lower end is tightly connected by means of a circular set of bolts 93 (see FIG. 5) to a bottom plate 91 having lateral flanges 92. The marginal bead at the upper end of the bellows 90 is similarly connected in a tight manner by means of bolts 94 to a rigid top plate 95. Said top plate is connected by bars 96 to a short transverse beam 97 which is connected at its ends with the longitudinal fifth wheel frame beams 16a, 16b which are of box-shaped section. A central brace 99 extends between a fastening 98 on the short transverse beam and the front portion of the vehicle frame 1' and is pivotally connected with said fastening by means ofa bearing including a rubber bushing 100 and is similarly connected at .101 with its front end to the vehicle frame I. This device serves as a parallel guide for the air bellows 90 and, together with lateral guides formed by longitudinal frame beams 102.0n either side of the pivotally mounted upper frame section 6, contributes to preventing wobbling of the bellows 90. As shown, the flanges 92 are connected to. said frame beams 102.The pivotally mounted frame structure 6 can be raised and lowered by means of the bellows 90 for an amount of approximately 30 cm, counted at the centre of the fifth wheel 9. i i The stroke length in an upward direction can be limited by means of abutments 103 (see FIG. 5). In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 3-5, the pivotally mounted frame structure 6 as already mentioned is connected to the vehicle frame also by means of shock absorbers 10 which are mounted in a substantially vertical position between the main frame I and the frame structure 6, the shock absorbers being pivoted to the main frame 1 and to the upper frame structure 6. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 the shock absorbers 10 are connected at their lower ends with fastenings 105 on the main frame 1, and the upper frame section 6 is rigidified by means of a number of transverse short beams 106-108 at the two ends and the central portion of said structure. Like the shock absorbers 10, the lifting device 5 can be utilized with a view to providing increased travelling comfort, apart from their use as height adjusting means. The lifting device 4 for raising a front wheel pair of the trailer/semi-trailer 2 into semi-trailer position comprises one or two air bellows III connected to the wheel support 110 and being of a similar kind as the height adjusting bellows 90 already. bescribed. After the trailer 2 has been coupled to the tractor as a semitrailer, the wheel lifting bellows 111 are filled with air from the tractor 1 thereby to raise the wheels to the positiondn which they are shown in FIG. 1. To this end, the bellows are mounted beneath the frame 115 for the wheel support 110, said frame 115 being pivoted to the vehicle body 116 in a per se known manner for pennitting the trailer to be used as a conventional trailer with steerable wheels. In FIG. 3 the lifting bellows 110 are shown filled with air and the front wheel axle 117 and wheels of the trailer 2 are in the raised position (of. also FIG. 1). To this end, the wheel axle 117 in the construction illustrated in FIG. 3 is connected to the upper rigid end walls 118 of the bellows 111 by means of lifting arms 119, while the bellows 111 rest with their lower rigid end walls on a bracket table 120 carried at the underside of the frame 115. Asdescribed above, the lifting device is arranged such that the front wheels will be raised when compressed air is fed to the lifting bellows. It is therefore understood that the front wheels can be lowered by gravity and by other means when the bellows are vented. 1f the air pressure accidentally fails the only thing that would happen is that the front wheels are lowered, which will not be dangerous since the vehicle 2 when used as a semi-trailer is supported at its forward end by the fifth wheel mechanism at such a high level that the front wheels of the vehicle in their lowered position do not'touch the ground. If the front wheels should touch the ground, the shock will not be stronger than an ordinary bump. As shown in FIG. 3 two draw beams 122 extend in a forward direction from the pivotally mounted frame 115, the trailer draw bar 80 being pivoted to the ends of said draw beams. Said draw beams are positioned laterally of the fifth wheel 9 when the trailer 2 is coupled to the tractor as a semi-trailer and do not obstruct articulation of the vehicle combination. When the trailer 2 is connected as a conventional full trailer the draw bar 80 is lowered and an eye 125 at the end of the bar is hooked onto a draw hook 126 secured to the rear end of the vehicle frame. At the use of the trailer 2 as a semi-trailer the front pivoting wheel supports thereof, to which the draw beams 122 are connected, should be locked for instance by locking of the draw bar 80 in raised position. For establishing the air pressure and electrical power connection between the tractor 1 and the trailer 2 when the latter is used as a full trailer, use can be made of a service line connecting mechanism previously known in connection with trailers. This mechanism need not include any air line to the lifting device 4, which need not be used in trailer operation. To prevent dirtying ofthe connections ofthe semi-trailer couplings these may have closure means. in FIG. 4 there is shown at the fifth wheel 9 a closure means in the form of a plate 130 which is movable against the action of spring force in guides formed in said fifth wheel. The fifth wheel can also ensure that the locking bolt 11 cannot be urged upwards before the plate 130 has been moved aside, which takes place automatically as the connection is realized, when the locking bolt 11 is inserted in position and urged against the protective plate 130. As will appear from the following the tractor 1 is equipped with controls for the manoeuvres required for connecting together the units of the vehicle combination. The electrical power system and the air pressure line system for the automatic semi-trailer coupling according to the present invention are diagrammatically shown in FIGS. 14 and 15. These Figures illustrate the elements associated with the tractor to the left of a dash-anddot line and those associated with the trailer 2 to the right of said dash-and-dot line. When connecting together the tractor and the trailer/semi-trailer 2 it should first be checked that the draw bar used with the trailer 2 asfga full trailer has been swung to raised position and that'a blue indicating lamp 200 is lighted. When lighted said lamp shows that the locking bolt 11 is pulled down into its lower position. The tractor 1 is then backed against the trailer/- semi-trailer 2, the driver adjusting the suitable height level of the fifth wheel by means of the level control 202. When the tractor 1 has reached the correct position for the coupling member 7 to engage the coupling -member 8 a gear selecting lever 203 is set in position N and the driver interrupts the electrical contact in a switch 204 which opens a solenoid valve 205 releasing the air from the compressed air box 21, the locking bolt 11 being raised bymeans of the spring 20. Simultaneously as the driver interrupts the electrical contact in the switch 204 the blue indicating lamp is extinguished and a relay 206 is closed whereby a red warning lamp 207 is lighted. When the locking bolt 11 has been moved upwards into the correct position (locking position) an electrical contact is closed in a switch-209 which in turn disconnects a relay 208 and extinguishes the red warning lamp 207. i In conjunction with the connection of the air pressure and electrical power lines on establishing the mechanical coupling air flows from the air feed line via a three-way valve 210 to the lifting bellows 111 on the front wheel axle 117 of the semi-trailer 2 and raises the semi-trailer into semi-trailer position. After that the driver adjusts the correct height of travel by means of the level control 202. Furthermore, 212 designates an electrical microswitch which is adapted to interrupt the locking bolt operation when the tractor is driven with a semi-trailer. 213 designates a relief valve between the feed line of the air pressure system and an air reservoir 214 for air pressure equalization. A filter 215 is disposed in the output air line of said reservoir. At the output side of the filter there is connected an air spring valve 216 for level control of the height adjusting bellows 90. 217 designates a relief valve which constitutes an air intake from the compressed air system. Finally, there are shown at 218 a dewatering valve for dewatering the compressed air, and at 219 a pressure switch controlled by the air pressure in the air line 42 and bypassing the switch 212. FIG. 15 shows the same system as FIG. 11 but after coupling of the vehicle 2 for use as a semi-trailer. In a modification two valves, via. a pressurecontrolled two-way valve and a relief valve (not shown), are substituted for the three-way valve 210. The relief valve opens at a certain pressure for admission of air to the lifting bellows, and when the king pin is released the pressure sinks in the air line and a nonreturn valve (not shown) is opened for venting the air from the bellows. As already mentioned, the unit 40-45 for air pressure and electrical power connection in the semi-trailer coupling mechanism is rotatable in relation to the king pin and the frame of the trailer/semi-trailer 2 and is adapted to be guided into correct angular position, when coupling is effected, by means of the described guiding device. During driving, the described air pressure and electrical power connector unit 40-45 in the semi-trailer coupling member 8 secured to the trailer/- semi-trailer 2 will'turn to and fro with respect to the last mentioned coupling member because said unit 40-45 is guided by the guiding device 81, 82 into a definite angular position in relation to the fifth wheel 9; This relative movement of the unit 40-45 in relation to the semitrailer 2 can be exploited for control purposes in the manner illustrated in FIG. 13. Fixedly connected to the unit 40-45 is a swing arm 300 which extends at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the semi-trailer 2 when said axis is aligned with the longitudinal axis of the tractor. At angular articulation of the tractor and the semi-trailer the swing arm 300 will retain its position relative to the tractor but will make an angle corresponding to said angular articulation with the longitudinal axis of the semi-trailer. These relative movements may be taken out as movements of pull at wires 301 secured to the ends of the swing arm 300, and these wires 30l may be connected to the rear wheel axle of the semi-trailer for steering said axle. Alternatively, the wires or some other transmission mechanism may control for instance stabilizers for the semi-trailer 2, such as air springs or hydraulic control means. The pull exerted at the wires 301 may be utilized for direct operation of the means or device to be operated (or controlled), or may actuate an electrical or pneumatical device such as switches or valves for instance solenoid valves, for the described control or operation. The unit 40-45 and its connection with the locking bolt 11 can be made accordingly stronger as required for the desired power output. it will appear from the above that it is the king pin 30 that is rotated in relation to the locking bolt 11 and the unit 40-45 during driving. The bolt 11 and the unit 40-45 thus together constitute an assembly which may be non-rotatable in relation to the tractor, for instance by means of a guide (not shown) between the bolt 11 and the sleeve 14 in FIG. 7. However, it is preferred to have a certain angular mobility that may be permitted within the scope of strength of the diaphragm 24. While but one tractor 1 and one trailer/semi-trailer vehicle 2 have been described in the foregoing it is understood that a vehicle equipage of the type shown in FlG. 1 can be supplemented with one or more similar vehicles connected to the trailer/semi-trailer 2. Of course, use can be-made of hydraulical or electrical lifting means instead of the pneumatical lifting means 4, 5 illustrated for the pivotally mounted upper frame section 6 and for the front wheels 3 of the trailer 2. Also many other modifications are conceivable within the scope of the appended claims. What we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. Equipage comprising a tractor having a main frame and equipped with a fifth wheel mechanism and a draw bar coupling at its rear end, and a convertible vehicle including a vehicle body having at its rear end at least one pair of wheels and at its front end a king pin and a draw bar coupling, a front wheel assembly including a frame pivoted to and supported by said vehicle body and at least one pair of front wheels mounted on said frame to thereby permit connecting the vehicle alternately as a full trailer with said draw bar coupling with the vehicle supported at its front end by said front wheels and as a semi-trailer with said fifth wheel mechanism; said tractor having a power operated supporting and lifting device secured to said main frame and supporting said fifth wheel mechanism at said rear end of said tractor for raising and lowering said fifth wheel mechanism to adjust the elevation of said mechanism in relation to the front end of said vehicle when the latter is supported on the ground by its rear and front wheels and for adjustment of the level of said fifth wheel mechanism and thereby of the elevation of the front end of said vehicle when the latter is coupled to said tractor as a semi-trailer; said front wheels being supported under the front end portion of said vehicle by said pivoted frame by suspension means; said suspension means supporting said front wheels for movement substantially in their own planes between a lowered position corresponding to a ground engaging position for using said front wheel to support the vehicle at its front end for using the vehicle as full trailer and a raised position above the ground to facilitate using the vehicle as a semi-trailer supported at its front end by said fifth wheel mechanism and at its rear end by said rear wheels; said suspension means including a power operated lifting device which is secured to said pivoted frame and to said front wheels and by which said front wheels are selectively shiftable in said planes between said lower and raised positions, and power operating means connected to said fifth wheel supporting and lifting device and to said vehicle front wheel lifting device for selective activation of the former lifting device for said adjustment of the level of said fifth wheel mechanism and for activation of the latter lifting device for raising and lowering said front wheels only when said vehicle is coupled to said tractor as a semi-trailer'supported'at its front end by said fifth wheel mechanism. 2. Equipage as claimed in claim 1, in which said supporting and lifting device of said fifth wheel mechanism comprises an upper frame structure having its forward end pivotally connected with said main frame to permit pivotal movements of said upper frame structure about a transversal axis and supporting on its rear end portion said fifth wheel mechanism at the rear end of the tractor, and a lifting means supported by said main frame and supporting said upper frame structure at said end portion thereof, said lifting means being adapted to raise and lower said fifth wheel mechanism by pivoting said upper frame structure about said transversal axis. 3. Equipage as claimed in claim 1, in which said lifting device of said front wheel suspension means is adapted to raise said front wheels against flexible preloading force exerted by said suspension means and to permit lowering of said front wheels by said preloading force when deactivated. 4. Equipage as claimed in claim 1, wherein said front wheel suspension means comprise a transverse wheel axle which supports said front wheels and wherein said lifting device is a pneumatic lifting device mounted between and mechanically connected to the front wheel axle and a part of the vehicle structure. 5. Equipage as claimed in claim 1, said fifth wheel mechanism and king pin including connector means for automatic connection of the lifting device of the vehicle to a power supply line in the tractor. 6. Equipage as defined in claim 1 wherein said supporting and lifting device comprises an air bellows which may be selectively inflated by'means of compressed air for selectively adjusting the level of said fifth wheel mechanism- 7. Equipage as defined in claim 1 wherein said vehicle further comprises a front end ensemble which is pivotally connected to the vehicle body for pivotal movement about a vertical axis, and means for locking 8. Equipage as claimed in claim 7, wherein said locking means includes means for locking the draw bar of the vehicle to a fixed part of the semi-trailer. Referenced by

An empirical study of activity-based costing (ABC) systems within the Jordanian industrial sector: critical success factors and barriers to ABC implementation.
Nassar, Mahmoud and Morris, David and Thomas, Andrew and Sangster, Alan (2009) An empirical study of activity-based costing (ABC) systems within the Jordanian industrial sector: critical success factors and barriers to ABC implementation. In: Accounting in emerging economies (research in accounting in emerging economies). Tsamenyi, Mathew and Uddin, Shahzad, eds. Emerald Group Publishing Limited, pp. 229-263. ISBN 9781849506250
Full text is not in this repository.
Purpose – The aim of the study is to contribute to a better understanding of activity-based costing (ABC) implementation systems in the context of a developing country such as Jordan. The main objectives of the study were to determine the extent of ABC implementation within the Jordanian industrial sector and identify the factors that facilitate and motivate the decision to implement ABC. Additional objectives include determining the problems associated with ABC implementation and assessing the degree of success of ABC implementation. Design/methodology/approach – A questionnaire survey was conducted during 2008 among 88 Jordanian industrial companies that are listed on the Amman stock exchange. Eighty-eight questionnaires were distributed and 61 were returned giving a rate of response of 69.3%. Findings – The survey findings indicate that ABC implementation among the Jordanian industrial companies is quite satisfactory. The rate of ABC implementation is about 55.7%. The most cited factors that facilitate the decision to implement ABC were that adequate training was provided for designing ABC and operating data in the information system are updated in real time: followed by the fact that adequate training was provided for using ABC. The most influential factors that motivate the process of ABC implementation are among others the increasing proportion of overhead costs, growing costs, including product costs and administrative costs, and currently the increasing number of product variants. Further factors are identified in the paper. Originality/value – Most previous studies focused only on the implementation of ABC in western developed countries. The results of this study make a contribution to existing knowledge in the area of the implementation of ABC, especially in eastern developing countries such as Jordan. In addition, the current study used a multi-attribute to measure success of ABC implementation within the Jordanian industrial sector. This multi-attribute was composed of satisfaction with ABC implementation, the degree of using ABC in decision making and the success of ABC implementation.

A light, blind bidding game with attractive pieces, Zoosim works well with 3-4 and plays quickly, thus acting as a good filler. I recommend following one Spielfriek's advice: get multi-sided dice in order to keep track of who has the most stars in each animal type. In our first couple of games scoring was confusing as people failed to keep track of who had earned a majority.
Zoosim is a good game with a pleasing theme. How many of us haven't wanted to build and design our own zoo at one time! The goal is to earn points by attracting the most visitors to your zoo. The games moves fairly quickly. There are 5 rounds. During each round, 5 zoo tiles are bid on by players. The tiles have various paths and animal types on theme the more stars by the animals the more attractive the exhibit. There are also trees on the tiles which invite visitors to rest in the shade at your zoo. Bid is simultaneous (closed fist style) so it moves quickly. Ties in bidding are decided by the 'flagpole.' The highest flag wins the tie but then goes to the bottom of the pole. Tiles are placed and attractions tallied and then visitors distributed. Vistors are worth x1 in the first round, x2 in the 2nd and so on. There is a first and 2nd place with visitors. Visitors may also get stuck in 'pathloops' at your zoo (I guess they just keep going around in a circle and can't find the exit to visit your opponent's zoo). You earn income by the size (number of tiles) in your zoo. this goes for 5 rounds and the game is over. Simple yet challenging.
Well, right now my wife and I earn enough such that we could pretty much afford any toy our son would want. As a result, he doesn't always have to think about saving money or spending wisely. So how do you teach being careful with money, when you have enough?
One way is Zoosim, and after a few games our 5-year-old is already learning that just because he wants a certain tile, it doesn't mean he should bid everything he has for it, because then he can't afford anything else (plus, the prices for subsequent tiles gets much cheaper once everyone starts running out of cash). The rules are simple enough that he can see that certain tiles have a lot of value, certain have little, and most are in between.
I'd give this game 4 stars, but for most gamers there are some flaws that probably prevent it from being a favorite for a long time. For instance, it can get very confusing keeping up with who has the most (or second place) of whatever. Second, in some games one player might get lucky and pretty much runaway with the game after that (though the special scoring mechanism alleviates some of this problem).
In brief it's a fun enough game that can teach the value of saving and spending under the right circumstances.
After a careful look at the O Zoo Le Mio back cover, I see trees, park benches, and that the visitors are in 5 colors, apparently 3 per color.
So it would seem that O Zoo le Mio fixes one of the major problems with ZooSim (ie, how to tell who's got what visitors and for what reason). If I ever play that game, and if this happens to be as I suspect, then I'd give it 4 stars. Too bad I bought ZooSim before the 'fixed' version came out.
The pages of rules to read always attract gamers. Cwali again scored a winner with short rules and ease of play.
After playing Titicaca several months ago, I knew Cwali is cementing a reputation for playable games. ZooSim proved a possible winner. Our group of four all liked the little houses for hiding your gray coins. Such names as Zoo World, Zoo Grande, Zoo Life, and so forth certainly added to the entertainment of the game.
Our group had to immediately distinguish the colors of the zoo: orange for Apes, Red (more pinkish)for Birds, Yellow for mammals, and Gray for reptiles. The idea was achieving adjacency.
Adjacency meant thinking like a game of dominoes. You had to play gray against gray, for example, in adjacent tiles. Adjacent tiles as we interpreted the rules did not mean adjacent road tiles. The colors had to match against each other.
One soon found that having eight gray coins at the beginning did not ensure you would have the highest bid. The flag idea caught on immediately for the ties in the bids. Each player had a colored flag that was placed randomly at the game's beginning. That flag was moved to the bottom of the flag stack once had a bid had been tied. The most prominent flag at the top of the pole won the oustanding bid for that player.
The zoo building started slowly. It was important to connect one of two roads from the initial zoo entrance or building. Then, the problem of matching colors for subsequent bids became apparent. I tended to bid too low and only achieved maybe one or two tiles for the five tiles up for bid each round.
The visitor part of the game certainly interested the players. When you achieve a loop--even a small one--you immediately receive a permanent visitor or black-blocked figure. Other visitors are acquired by the most stars on birds, reptiles, mammals, apes, and so forth. Then, your multipliers are calculated at the end of each round. For example, if you have the most black-blocked visitors at the end of the second round, you multiply that number times two for your count.
Soon one player started running away with the game. He was smart enough to match adjacencies and tile stars for the most points in certain animal categories. Others struggled along to match particular road tiles to achieve some kind of points with sea animals, for example. I still don't think I recognized many of the reptile grays, except for the red cobra.
It became evident that the bidding for final rounds was going to be extremely spirited. One receives replacement coins for the number of tiles down on your particular zoo. The far-ahead player bid seven gray coins for the last tile of the game, and I bid five. Naturally, the far-ahead player completed his zoo with the most birds, most mammals, most other mammals, and most reptiles. The final scores were: 138, 81, 68, and 50.
We discovered certain points resulted from an analysis of the game. The tiles for the different animal tiles are not completely balanced. It pays to go for broke on the final five-tile bidding. One has to be extremely careful to match the colors and remember the domino theory of adjacency. One zoo's visitors can change every turn, and it is important to save the coins for the later rounds.
Would I play the game and recommend to others? It is good beer-and-pretzel gaming with the flavor of Carcassonne and Wooly Bully thinking thrown in.

Holy who?! KSA says this MENA country leads the way with most pilgrims in 2014
At least 888,978 Egyptians have visited Mecca this year thus far (File Archive)
More > ,
Saudi Arabia said Egyptians have made up the largest segment of religious pilgrims to the holy city of Mecca so far in 2014.
A statement by the Saudi embassy in Cairo said the number of Egyptian pilgrims this year totalled 888,978 – over 15 percent of the total number of pilgrims.
The embassy also said the number represents an increase in Egyptian pilgrims compared to 2013.
Egyptians were also the largest pilgrimage contingent in 2012.
The Umrah is a pilgrimage to Mecca performed by Muslims that can be undertaken at any time of the year. It is sometimes called the minor – or lesser – pilgrimage. The Hajj is the major pilgrimage and is compulsory for every able-bodied Muslim who can afford it. The Umrah is not compulsory but highly recommended.

California surfer - Hey, I'm going to be in this area for a week or two in June. Im from Southern California, grew up surfing oxnard shores(look it up on this site, there are sweet pics). I will be travelling for almost two months in europe, and the thought of not surfing that long makes me cringe. Is there any surf here in the summer? If not here, where can I find some? Ill be here mid-late june. Thanks
By oshensurfer , 01-12-2005
can be cool - surf there once, the 28th of october 2004 I think, like 1.5m at the set, was quite cool, shallowand quite power, was niec surf for mediterranean, definitly the best in the area!!
By holiday surfer , 23-06-2005
...it is good - it is just a really good spot with not very often swell.when there is swell, and it can be the most chaotic windswell, you will have long long long rides when it is small and long long long rides with lots of power when it is big (for the med)

Home > Health Library > Asthma and Wheezing
Wheezing is a whistling noise that occurs when the bronchial tubes, which carry air to the lungs, narrow because of inflammation or mucus buildup. Wheezing is often present in asthma.
During an asthma attack, the bronchial tubes become smaller. At first, the person may wheeze when breathing out. As the attack becomes worse, the person may also wheeze when breathing in. During a severe asthma episode, wheezing may go away because little air is moving through the narrowed bronchial tubes.
Wheezing is a sign of asthma in children, but it does not always mean that a child has asthma. Children younger than 5 often develop wheezing during a respiratory infection. Children with a family history of allergies seem to be more likely than other children to have one or more episodes of wheezing with colds. Children with certain viral infections, such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), rhinovirus (which causes the common cold), and influenza virus, also are likely to develop wheezing.
Wheezing also is more likely to occur in children who:

Outdoor Water Solutions® Pond Pack
Item # WX2-282063
- Google+
- Details & Specs
Outdoor Water Solutions® Pond Pack. A trio of all-natural scum busters!
The recipe for a clean and clear pond is here: the Pond Pack from Outdoor Water Solutions!
Each Kit includes:- (24) 8-oz. packets of concentrated aerobic bacteria in a barley straw medium
- 10 lbs. of water clarifier
- (2) 6-oz. packets of blue dry pond dye in water soluble pouches
The Pond Pack is designed to treat a 1/4 acre pond for the whole season (approximately 6 months) or a 1/2 acre pond for 3 months. For larger ponds, you can either treat for a shorter period of time or purchase multiple packs.
The bacteria is designed to break down excess nutrients in the water column and to start consuming excess organic matter on the bottom of your pond. The clarifier ties up excess phosphorous and can help improve water clarity while the concentrated blue dye packets help filter sunlight off of the bottom - preventing algae from growing while giving your pond a beautiful blue color.
Compared to commercial-grade algaecide, it's easily your best long-term solution. The industrial stuff just kills algae and lets it sink to the bottom where it adds to the existing organic matter, making future algae issues worse. Meanwhile, the Pond Pack's 3-pronged approach helps prevent algae growth. Works extremely well when combined with bottom diffused aeration (either wind-driven or electric systems), too.

The influence of carbon nanotubes on mechanical and bielongational properties of films of polypropylene prepared with film blowing technique were studied. The carbon nanotubes (CNTs) adopted as fillers were contained in a polypropylene pre-compounded with 20 wt% of carbon nanotubes (masterbatches). To investigate on the effect of moelecular and/or carbon nanotube orientation on the mechanical properties of PP, the tensile test were performed eiher on suitable composite sample plates, obtained by pressing the granulated melt- mixed composites, either on film samples. Furhermore, blown film samples were tested either in the blow-up direction (BD) either the take -up one (TD). Different response to the tensile tests were displayed by the blown films samples in the two directions of testing as a consequence of the biaxial orientation of molecules (and/or the carbon nanotubes) during the film blowing. Excellent improvement of the mechanical properties (Young's modulus and strength) for certain weight fractions of CNT of the blown composite films compared to the neat PP were revealed. Furthermore, the bubble formation and stability in the film blowing process of PP nanocomposites were correlated to their underlying rheology, structure, and crystallization behavior.

Album Review
The first ever full-length Christmas album from
Aaron Tippin
isn't bad. He puts his own "working man" spin on popular holiday fare like "Jingle Bell Rock," "Blue Christmas," "Silent Night," and "Away in a Manger," sung as a charmingly winsome duet with wife Thea. And no country Christmas album would be complete without some new songs, so
and Thea wrote or co-wrote seven newbies including standout originals "It's a Good Thing Santa Ain't Single" and "The Year That Santa Never Came." Even Scrooge himself would have a hard time not enjoying this sweet little album.

Rituals, Superstitions, & Quirks – Oh My!
3The photo above is from my 15 year old son's room. His shoes are lined up perfectly – perfectly spaced, perfectly aligned – what 15 year old boy does that??? And, yes, the rest of his room, as well as his racquet bag, is similarly arranged. During tournaments, he eats the exact same thing for breakfast each day, the exact same thing for lunch, and the exact same thing for dinner. His before-bed-during-a-tournament ritual is well-rehearsed and impeccably executed each night, too. When I, More >
A Matter of Fitness
If you don't want to know the outcome of the Djokovic-Murray semifinal match, stop reading now!
I watched that match with great interest, especially as it moved into the 5th set. Both players were looking a bit fatigued, and it was obvious that this match was going to come down to who was the most fit – both physically and mentally. While Djokovic has traditionally been plagued with physical ailments which caused him to either retire matches or More >
High School Tennis
6For the past two weeks, my son has been going to his high school tennis team tryouts after school and drills. Given the individual nature of his sport, the idea of trying out for a team is a relatively new concept for my son. And, the idea of playing matches without worrying about ranking points is completely foreign to him. Thankfully, his coach gave him a handout spelling out the do's and don'ts when trying out for a school team. My favorite tip is:
- Act like a champion, dress like a More >
The Alternate List Redux
3I wrote in an earlier post about life on the tournament alternate list. Now, let's talk about a different kind of alternate . . . the on-site alternate.
When you're on the alternate list for a tournament, you have the option of showing up to the tournament site on the first morning of play and asking to step in if anyone in the draw doesn't show up for his/her match. Each tournament has slightly different rules for how they work the on-site alternate thing, but, basically, if you show up, More >
What Can We Learn From the Pros?
1Going back to my last post on active viewing, I wanted to expand and talk a bit about what we – and our kids – can learn from watching the pros in action.
I have been spending a lot (understatement!) of time watching the Aussie Open this week. I've seen some good stuff and some not-so-good stuff, all of which has taught me lessons that I can share with my son.
Did you see Marcos Baghdatis play Stan Wawrinka? Did you see Marcos have a meltdown then start destroying his racquets on the More >
Q&A with Coach Lisa Dodson
2This next Q&A is with Lisa Dodson. Lisa currently lives and teaches in Northern California. She is a certified USPTA Pro 1 and PTR coach with over 30 years of teaching experience. She was also a ranked player on the WTA tour. As you will read below, Lisa is a passionate coach who has much to offer in the way of player development. Enjoy!

Life in Limbo
12As a precursor to this post, you might want to go back and read my earlier post on the USTA ranking system and how it works. That done, let's talk about life in limbo aka The Alternate List.
With the new smaller draws at the USTA tournaments, there is likely to be an alternate list for most age divisions. The alternate list is simply a document listing the registered players who were not ranked highly enough to make it into the main draw but who, in the event that a main-draw player decides More >
New Rules for the New Year, Part 2
6Another rule that was piloted in the Southern Section in 2011 but rolled out nationwide for 2012 concerns 10-and-Under Tennis (aka QuickStart or Mini-Tennis or ROG which is an acronym for the different colors of the low-compression balls). From this point forward, all 10U tournament play will take place on smaller courts (36×18 feet for 8-and-unders, 60×21 feet for 10-and-unders) with low-compression balls. If a 10U player wants to play on a full-size court (78×27 feet for singles) with More >
New Rules for the New Year
2For those of you living in USTA's Southern section, some new rules went into effect January 1st. For those of you living in other USTA sections, these rules are probably coming to you soon since Southern tends to pilot changes that are then rolled out nationwide.
The rule that I want to address today concerns Southern Level 3 tournaments. Even though my son has been playing USTA Southern tournaments for several years now, we got no notice of this rule change. How did I find out about it? I More >
