Aluminum dock boards are ideal for low to medium volume dock loading applications and come in capacities of 10,000 to 15,000 pounds. Steel curbs are bolted onto the aluminum diamond pattern plate for increased strength and to help prevent runoff.
Steel dock boards provide a safe ramp for heavy-duty loading dock applications. They are constructed from heavy duty steel and are available in three styles: SC series, T series or C series. SC series are low capacity (10,000-13,000 lbs) and feature bolt on steel curbs. T series are high capacity (15,000-40,000 lbs), feature welded construction and two, four hole pin pockets on each side of the board for positioning. C series dock boards are high capacity (15,000-40,000 lbs), feature welded construction and pin pockets that run the length of the board for extreme flexibility when positioning.
Selecting the proper dock board is easy with the assistance of our dockboard selection guide or our loading dock experts. Call us now at 800-876-7267 to discuss your loading dock needs.

Breathtaking Landscape Photography By Fakrul Jamil
I've never been one to take landscape pictures. I just don't like any that I take. I can't seem to get the composition right or lighting. I am a portrait photographer. It's what I do. However, I greatly appreciate photographers who are able to capture the true beauty of a certain location. Photographers, like Fakrul, are able to do just that. The perfect exposure, bringing out details I would never have noticed had I been the one to take the shot.

Sharon Simmons is one serious GILF, who is trying to become a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader/stripper. Now although SHARON is not as serious as the GILF I am trying to hit up on OKCUPID, she is pretty damn SEXAAAAAY. I mean if you wouldn't hit up 55 year old Sharon Simmons you must have a really small one/you know she won't feel it – it's OTAY.
Now If Sharon does make the team (MEANING SHE BANGED JERRY JONES), then she would be the second grandmother in the NFL – she would join 37 year old grandma (what did she have a kid when she was 12) Susie Sanchez.

70 year old man | Seattle, WA, USA | Seeking women 60-70 within 5 miles
Lotta livin' left to do...
I'm a healthy, happy, considerate, active, adventuresome, passionate man who laughs a lot while enjoying life and others. I take joy in a great many things. I'm friendly, outgoing and affectionate. I stay in shape by working out 5x/week, plus skiing in the winter and biking in the summer. I'm debt free--the house, kid's college and car are all paid for--so I'm financially comfortable and able to do what I want. I have great relationships with my two grown sons' families, my 4 grandchildren and many good friends. They describe me as honest to a fault, open, enthusiastic, empathetic, fun, funny, personable, caring, vulnerable, and a good friend who tries to treat others the way they want to be treated. I ran two successful companies and now I'm retired from business and the Navy, but not from life. My time now is spent volunteering, travelling, attending the performance arts, playing w/ my grand kids and always going to do or see something interesting. I have a good life and I'd like to share it w/ someone. I'm looking for a life partner, a best friend, a lover. She is active, attractive, interesting, easy to talk to, physically fit, young in spirit woman to share my life as an equal partner. I like strong, independent women who also have a warm, fun, affectionate side and enjoy intimacy. If you think there may be some potential, let me know and we'll get together for a cuppa--coffee or wine. If I'm not for you, a simple , "No thanks," saves us both a lot of time. Thank you.
Camping , Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Wine tasting
Aerobics, Cycling, Other types of exercise, Skiing, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 5 or more times per week.

I love to travel. Been to all 50 states and more than 50 countries. Too many favorites to list all, but Cappadocia, Turkey was most memorable. Also love road trips and exploring different neighborhoods locally.
University of Washington, Seattle, WA
I like variety in food, drink, arts, movies, things to do, etc. I spend time w/ my grandkids every week.
Many things: Travel, performing arts, brew pubs, wine tastings, long weekend road trips, being w/ grandkids, reading, rocking babies at Children's Hospital, movies, biking, skiing, walks, special events, camping, fishing, white water rafting, etc.

Designing Seat Patterns
I have a pair of Cavalier bucket seats I am going to recover this week. My question is I would like to do some Inserts in them a different color, and the original seats dont have an insert pattern. Since I am planning on copying the old seat pattern, can I stitch everything together, then design my pattern, and stitch it overtop ? I understand it will be raised over everything else, but will it look horrible. This is a first time seat upholstery for me, and I would hate to ruin 3 hides of leather.
Thanks Brad

Just a suggestion but if you can make a pattern from some cheap fabric to see how it looks and goes together and then when you are happy make the covers form the good material..10 ounce cotton canvas makes a decent pattern and does not cost that much..
I have tried most all of it and now do what is known to work.. |
You are right, it will look horrible and amateurish to do it the way you are talking about. The first thing to do is to draw the insert on the old seat cover with a magic marker while the seat cover is still on the frame. Once you have the insert for the seat back and the insert for the seat bottom the size you want, draw another line parallel to the insert lines 1/2" inside toward the center of the seat around the top and two sides of the insert. The bottom stays the same. This is the size of the opening you will need for the insert. If you add 1" to the top and two sides of the opening, you will have the size of the insert. Now you can take the old seat apart, cut out the openings for the inserts, cut the seats apart, and make your cutting patterns from the pieces. Check out this thread:CLICK HERE Also check out this thread: CLICK HERE These will give you all the info you need to do the job.
One thing you need to realize is that once you create the inserts, you will need to come up with a way to hold the insert down, either around the edges or the whole insert. That will define the insert area and make the seat look better. This can be done by sewing in listings or by simply gluing down the entire insert. Make sure the seats are right before you glue anything. That method should be your last resort, 'cuz once it's done that way it's permanent. Sam is right also. Don't try to do the seat covers out of the leather the first time around. Make your patterns, sew them up out of some inexpensive vinyl, and tweek your patterns until the seat covers look good before you start cutting up the leather.

5.0L 302 carb'd engine SOLD
I bought a early 80's ford f150 2wd for parts. Had a 5.0L carbed engine in it. Owner told me he had installed a rv cam in it and had very low miles since install of the cam, mileage on motor unknown. I bought it for the new edelbrock intake and carb and distributor. I have no need for the rest of the motor. The starter was bad at purchase but I was able to get it started and it ran decent and had good oil pressure. I am in no need of the long block. $150 and its yours. The heads are your plain Jane early 80's truck heads and block. Has an auto c6 flywheel bolted to it.
I am in Middleville, but can bring it to Grandville almost any day of the week. No broken exhaust bolts or any other bolts I noticed. Last edited by CheapThrillB2; August 13th, 2014 at 05:17 PM. |

Both land use and the roadway system were analyzed in this study effort. The purposes of the transportation component are to assess the effectiveness of the existing roadway system, considering the present land uses and transportation network, and to develop a transportation plan that will mitigate current and future roadway deficiencies, increase mobility, support the Comprehensive Plan, and create a safe and efficient roadway system for the future. Sources of information for the transportation plan included the City of Homewood, the Alabama Department of Transportation, the Regional Planning Commission of Greater Birmingham, the KPS Group, Inc. and office files and field reconnaissance efforts of Skipper Consulting, Inc. BACKGROUND Homewood has approximately 25,000 inhabitants and is located south of Birmingham, Alabama. Over the past several decades, Homewood has experienced significant growth in both population and employment, resulting in subsequent traffic growth on the City's roadway network and increasing traffic congestion throughout the area. Homewood is located on three major regional roadways Interstate Highway 65, U. S. Highway 31, U. S. Highway 280 and Alabama Highway 149. Interstate 65 is a six lane interstate highway, U. S. Highway 31varies in cross-section from a four lane median divided roadway to five lanes, U. S. Highway 280 varies from four lanes with a median to six lanes with a median and Alabama Highway 149 varies from four lanes with a median to a five lane cross-section. To ensure that the transportation plan meets the desires of the City of Homewood it was determined that it should meet the following criteria: Meet the long range transportation need of the city; Encourage and accommodate traffic on the interstate, arterials and collectors while discouraging traffic on local and neighborhood streets; Skipper Consulting, Inc. 1 Transportation Plan – Homewood, Alabama Provide access among all developed areas of Homewood; Improve overall accessibility to employment, education, public facilities, the Central Business district and other major activity centers; Provide for an orderly improvement and expansion of the roadway system at minimum cost as the need for improvement arises; and Minimize disruptions of existing and planned developments and established community patterns. EXISTING TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM Roadway Classifications and Descriptions All transportation networks have some form of classification to categorize the hierarchy of movement in the system. The roadway network developed for the Homewood study area was based on the functional classification system prepared by the Alabama Department of Transportation. The components of this network are freeways, arterials, collectors and local streets. The distribution of mileage in these classifications for Homewood is as follows: Classification Mileage Interstate 2 miles Arterials 25 miles Collector Roads 20 miles Local Streets 80 miles TOTAL 127 miles Each type roadway provides separate and distinct traffic service functions and is best suited for accommodating particular demands. Their designs also vary in accordance with the characteristics of traffic to be served by the roadway. The following is a brief description of each roadway type. Interstates are divided highways with full control of access and grade separation at all intersections. The controlled access character of freeways results in high-lane capacities, Skipper Consulting, Inc. 2 Transportation Plan – Homewood, Alabama enabling these roadways to carry up to three times as much traffic per lane as arterials. Freeways move traffic at relatively high speeds. Arterials are important components of the total transportation system. They serve as feeders to the interstate system as well as major travelways between land use concentrations within the study area. Arterials are typically roadways with relatively high traffic volumes and traffic signals at major intersections. The primary function of arterials is moving traffic. Arterials provide a means for local travel and land access. Collectors provide both land service and traffic movement functions. Collectors serve as feeders between arterials as well as provide access to the local streets. Collectors are typically lower volume roadways that accommodate short distance trips. Local Streets sole function is to provide access to the land uses that are immediately adjacent to the roadways. These streets are not included in the computer network for this project. Regional Access Routes The Homewood area is served by an interstate highway (I-65) two U. S. highways (U. S. Highway 31 and U. S. Highway 280) and a state highway (Alabama Highway 149). These highways offer both north-south and east-west regional access as well as access throughout the Homewood area. Interstate Highway 65 traverses the City of Homewood from north to south. It is a six-lane controlled access interstate highway that bisects the study area. I-65 has two interchanges located within the study area: Oxmoor Road and Lakeshore Drive. U.S Highway 31 is a principal arterial roadway that varies from four to five lanes throughout the study area. It is one of the major transportation spines through the City of Homewood and provides access to many of the commercial and residential areas in the City. Skipper Consulting, Inc. 3 Transportation Plan – Homewood, Alabama U.S Highway 280 extends along the eastern boundary of the City of Homewood in a northwest- southeast direction. U.S Highway 280 is a principal arterial roadway with a cross-section that is six lanes throughout the study area. U.S Highway 280 has an interchange with the Elton B. Stephens Expressway in the Homewood area. Alabama Highway149 follows Lakeshore Drive and Green Springs Highway through the City of Homewood. Alabama Highway 149 is classified as a major arterial roadway and has a cross- section that ranges from four lanes to five lanes. Existing Traffic Volumes Traffic volume, as indicated by traffic counts at various locations on the roadway network, reflect current travel patterns and how well the network is serving the travel demand. Traffic counts were collected throughout the study. Existing daily traffic counts, which were conducted in 2006, are shown in Figure 1. As shown in Figure 1, the following is a summary of the maximum daily traffic volumes that occur on major roadways in the study area: Interstate 65 100,000 vehicles per day U.S. Highway 31 44,000 vehicles per day U.S. Highway 280 84,000 vehicles per day Lakeshore Drive 50,000 vehicles per day Green Springs Highway 28,000 vehicles per day Valley Avenue 20,000 vehicles per day Oxmoor Road 22,000 vehicles per day Skipper Consulting, Inc. 4 Figure 1 Existing Volumes and Roadway Classifications Transportation Plan – Homewood, Alabama Roadway Capacity Roadway networks are evaluated by comparing the traffic volumes along each facility to the facility's capacity. Roadway capacity is defined as the ability of the facility to accommodate traffic. Service flow volume is the level of traffic flow (vehicles per day) that can be accommodated at various levels of service. The current level of service scale, as developed by the Transportation Research Board in the Highway Capacity Manual, Sixth Edition, ranges from a level of service "A" to a level of service "F". Abbreviated definitions of each level of service are as follows: Level of Service A Free traffic flow (0% –35% of capacity) Level of Service B Stable traffic flow (35% –50% of capacity) Level of Service C Stable traffic flow (50% –62% of capacity) Level of Service D High-density stable traffic flow (62% –75% of capacity) Level of Service E Capacity level traffic flow (75% –100% of capacity) Level of Service F Forced or breakdown traffic flow (>100% of capacity) As a general rule, the desired operation of a roadway should be no lower than level of service "C". Level of service "D" may be acceptable under certain circumstances. A level of service "E" or "F" is considered unacceptable. The methodology used to evaluate roadway segment capacity in this project was a tabular analysis relating roadway classification, number of lanes, levels of service, and daily service volumes. The estimated 24-hour capacities of the facilities included in the area network are shown in Table 1. Figure 1 summarizes the roadway segment levels of service.

Each land use (residential, commercial, industrial, etc.) generates and attracts traffic depending on the nature of the development and the amount of land developed. In order to identify this demand for travel, inventories of existing land uses must be made. This information is used in conjunction with the physical location of the adjacent land uses, constraints on the roadway network, and other related factors to develop the interrelationship between land use and the transportation system. To catalog the land uses of the study area and to provide a means of quantifying the relationship of land use to transportation demand, the study area was divided into individual cells called traffic analysis zones (TAZ). A traffic analysis zone is defined as a subdivision of a study area of homogeneous land use within a distinct border for the compilation of land use and traffic generation data. A TAZ system developed by the study team was employed for this analysis. A total of 36 zones are included within the City of Homewood. Each traffic analysis zone within the City of Homewood was inventoried to determine existing land uses within its boundary. The existing land use information was used to duplicate current travel demands and trends throughout the City of Homewood. The future travel demands and trends were forecasts based on the land use plan that was developed for the City of Homewood. Other considerations included the density of development in each TAZ and the suitability of vacant land for development in each TAZ. TRANSPORTATION MODELING PROCESS Travel demand models are developed to predict future traffic on the street and highway system. The models are initially developed using existing land use data to duplicate travel for the base year. How well the model duplicates base year conditions is considered as an indication of how well it Skipper Consulting, Inc. 8 Transportation Plan – Homewood, Alabama will predict future travel. If the model cannot produce traffic volumes similar to those observed on existing streets and highways, then the model is reevaluated and adjustments are made. This adjustment or calibration process continues until the model is adequately simulating base year traffic conditions. The process of building and modifying the model to simulate base year travel is called calibration. After the model is calibrated, trip generation data is developed for the land use plan and input into the model to predict future travel demand. NO BUILD ASSIGNMENT The travel demand generated by the land use plan is assigned to the existing roadway network. The purpose of this step is to identify where future deficiencies might occur if no roadway improvements are undertaken. The future year no-build forecast traffic volumes are illustrated in Figure 2. As was discussed in the Existing Conditions section, the future year no-build forecast traffic volumes were compared with the roadway capacities to determine roadway segment levels of service. Roadways which show a projected volume/capacity (v/c) ratio of greater than 0.75 (Level of Service "E") should be considered deficient. Emphasis should be placed on those areas where the v/c ratio is greater than 1.00 (Level of Service "F"). Based on those ratios, the roadways estimated levels of service are also shown in Figure 2. TRANSPORTATION PLAN DEVELOPMENT The Transportation Plan for Homewood, Alabama was developed in an effort to provide a guide for local and state officials to utilize to address existing traffic congestion, mitigate anticipated future year capacity deficiencies, improve mobility, increase safety and promote economic vitality. The Transportation Plan was developed as a result of public meetings, meetings with Homewood officials and the results of analyses that were performed by Skipper Consulting. Various types of roadway improvements have been included in Homewood's Transportation Plan. The improvements include adding travel lanes to existing roadways and constructing new roadways. The Transportation Plan is described below and illustrated in Figure 3. Each improvement is shown in detail in Figures 4 through 11.

Extend 25th Court from its current end to Woodcrest Place. 8. Modify the intersection of Hawthorne Drive at Linwood Drive. Access Management The success of the Transportation Plan relies on the City's ability to protect current and future capacities of the roadway network. Access management can benefit roadside properties throughout the City of Homewood by promoting safety and improving roadway capacities. If approached properly, access management can enhance property values while safeguarding past and future public investments in the infrastructure. Access management techniques developed for Homewood should incorporate the following strategies to retrofit current roadway corridors and in planning new projects: Separate conflict points – distance between major intersections and driveways should be regulated. As a general rule, driveways should not be located within the area of influence of intersections. Restrict turning movements at unsignalized driveways and intersections – the use of full directional unsignalized streets and driveways should be limited. Full movement intersections should serve multiple developments through joint use driveways or cross access easements. If frontage roads area available, all driveways should access the frontage roads. Access to the main line should only be permitted at intersections of public roadways. Establish design standards – design standards that address access spacing, the length of turn lanes and tapers and driveway dimensions should be developed for application throughout the corridor. Skipper Consulting, Inc. 20 Transportation Plan – Homewood, Alabama Traffic signal spacing – signals should only be installed when appropriate studies indicate their spacing and interconnection can be accomplished without significant impacts on the corridor capacity. Turn lanes – left and right turn lanes should be required for all public streets and major access points to adjacent land uses. Shared driveways/inter-parcel access – joint use driveways should be required to reduce the proliferation of driveways and to preserve the capacity of the corridor. Pedestrian/bicycle planning – specific needs of pedestrian and bicyclist movements should be addressed. Traffic signals should be designed and timed to accommodate pedestrians in those areas of significant activity. Skipper Consulting, Inc. 21 Transportation Plan – Homewood, Alabama CONCLUSIONS This report summarized the results of a study performed for the transportation system of the City of Homewood. The conditions summarized included traffic analysis for existing, future conditions and recommendations for roadway improvements that would help correct current and future transportation deficiencies. It is virtually impossible to eliminate all transportation deficiencies that may occur in a city but the recommendations in this report will help relieve existing and future traffic congestion, improve mobility, improve traffic safety and increase the opportunity for economic vitality.

Now Jesse's words saddle them with an obligation to not only visit the past, but the need to rewrite it.
Fulfilling their purpose will take everything they have, both mentally and physically. But they have no choice...because everything in the past-and the future-is on the line.

My son just discovered a treasure!!!!
My son Chris was helping a friend move some furniture and came home with an older stereo as his "pay" . He was so excited and said that Miss Valerie told him that it played these things called "albums". Chris then asked me if I had any of those old antique things. LMBO!~ I told him that yes, I had a few and showed him where I kept my old record albums that I cannot stand to part with. He got so excited when he found my beautiful Hawaiian ones and started playing them. He's a huge fan of good Hawaiian music and has now claimed them as his treasure!

My mom recorded all the old scratched and staticy sounding Christmas albums for me one year on tape when I was away from home. I still play the tapes at Christmas and refuse to by CD versions of them because it just would not be the same without that scratching sound!

Brandon Sun - PRINT EDITION
'Extra! Extra!' Newsboy to hawk Saturday special edition
» Front-page reprint of 100th anniversary of the declaration of the First World War
The Brandon Sun will be taking a page out of the history books this weekend — literally.
On Saturday, as the world marks the centennial of the beginning of the First World War, the Sun will present its readers with a reprinted historical front page from 100 years ago. And they'll even be able to buy it from a real live newsie.
Related Items
The "Extra! Extra!" front page containing the declaration of war was recently digitized from an original paper copy preserved by the Sun, and modern readers will be able to learn the news of war exactly as Brandonites did a century ago.
"The First World War affected Brandon and its citizens deeply," said Sun publisher Eric Lawson. "The Sun's archives provide one of our city's most important records of its history, and we thought it was important to bring that history to life."
Inside, the paper will contain all the news, sports, analysis and advertising that it normally does, but the outside wrap will be a throwback to 1914. If the period style isn't enough, a special memorial banner will ensure that no readers believe Britain and Germany have gone to war again.
"From a marketing perspective its always fun to have something new or different for our readers, but also attracting more eyes to our advertisers' messages is what we try to do," said Sun sales and marketing director Glen Parker. "This will be a win on both fronts."
Adding to the vintage flavour, the Sun has hired an actor to dress up as a newsboy and to stand on a street corner flogging copies of the paper.
The Sun newsboy, in full costume, will be on 18th Street at Brandon Avenue, outside of Forbidden Flavours, and he'll be selling copies of the paper from 9–10 a.m. on Saturday morning. Copies of the Sun are $1.50 on Saturday, but all proceeds and any additional donations are being forwarded to the Shilo Military Family Resource Centre.
"If there was a breaking news story back then, paper boys and girls would have hit the streets to get the news out quickly," said circulation manager Lori Timms, who will be helping the actor out. "On Saturday, we're bringing part of history back. This will be a little bit what it was like in the past."
The historic front page reprint officially kicks off a major initiative of the Sun, which will track the progress of the First World War from a Brandon perspective "as it happened" for the next four years. The retrospective coverage actually began in June, with a look back at the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand — the war's inciting event. Saturday's edition will include local perspectives on the lead-up to the war itself, as well as stories about how Brandon reacted in the first days of the conflict.
The ongoing coverage will continue regularly, and will also be presented online at www.brandonsun.com/firstworldwar100.
"It's sobering to look through Brandon's history as it was presented in the pages of the paper," managing editor James O'Connor said. "There are important lessons to learn from any community's past, and the Brandon Sun is lucky to have access to nearly 130 years of history that we can learn from."
