What It Is
The new line of toys from Fisher-Price's Little People line now features Disney/Pixar Toy Story vehicles, including the Woody and R/C Vehicle. Place the Woody Little People figure into the R/C and press Woody's head to hear one of four phrases. Then press down on the R/C's back spoiler to set the car in motion. The vehicle will accelerate as it goes forward and make different car sound effects.
Why It's Fun
Preschoolers will like pretending to ride along with Woody as he chases down other toys in the Woody & R/C Vehicle. The sounds and phrases will help bring children's favorite cowboy and the fun of the movies to life. Kids will be inspired to create their own storylines with the toy.
Who It's For
The Woody and R/C Vehicle is for ages 1–5.
What To Be Aware Of
Two AA batteries are required but not included.

The Wii U is the latest games console from Nintendo and will soon lock horns with the other next-gen offerings from Sony and Microsoft.
After placing third in a console generation with the GameCube, Nintendo showed that it was no longer willing to compete strictly on software with the 2006 launch of the Wii.
The platform proved a phenomenon thanks to its motion controls, ease of use, and low price point, and while it may not have held sway with core gamers for long, the Wii showed that Nintendo could still work wonders with innovation.
The Wii U is the next step, and like its predecessor, it's something different from the pack. A brand new standalone console, the Wii U may initially offer graphics power comparable to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, both of which have been on the market for several years, but that's not its main selling point.
- Read about the new Wii Mini
What sets the platform apart is its focus on the new Wii U GamePad, a large amalgamation of a traditional controller and a tablet, featuring a 6.2-inch touchscreen display that can work in tandem with what's being shown on your TV.
It's the center of the Wii U experience – a single, wireless input device that includes a bit of everything. In addition to the large screen, it includes two analog sticks, a directional pad, eight input buttons, a front-facing camera, and an NFC (Near Field Communication) sensor. It can even control your television.
And much as the GamePad is designed to supplement your big-screen games, whether as a standard controller, a screen for map and inventory info, or one of many other inventive uses, it can also work independently from the TV. Turn on the GamePad (which likewise activates the console) and many titles can be played entirely from the small screen, even in another room – though range varies.
The Wii U ships with a single GamePad, and while future games may support two, none do as of now – and they're not sold separately. Multiplayer games still utilize the last console's wand-like Wii Remotes and Nunchuk attachments, plus the new Wii U Pro Controller bears a striking resemblance to an Xbox 360 controller.
Beyond the innovative GamePad, the Wii U in many other ways seems intent on rising to the level of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. While the Wii was a smashing success, its lack of high definition output – plus graphics technology barely above that of the previous generation of consoles – dated it quickly as HDTV sales surged and streaming media took off.
Early Wii U launch titles look very similar to current games on the other home consoles – in part because many of the launch titles are top games from other systems, albeit with modifications and enhancements. For Nintendo's part, the company has finally ushered some of its franchises into high definition with New Super Mario Bros. U and Nintendo Land.
And the Wii U is positioned as the center of your digital universe, though it's not quite ready to fill that role. Netflix is available, but apps for Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video, and YouTube – visible on the home screen – won't be activated for weeks, and the big Nintendo TiVii feature that lets users track and find their favorite media across services (as well as interact with TiVo boxes) won't be out until December. At least you can control your TV and cable box with the GamePad.
Considering its myriad parts, the Wii U seems to offer a mix of the new and novel and the old and familiar – but what is its worth to both owners of other current game consoles as well as those looking to upgrade from the Wii? And do its initial game offerings warrant early adoption, or should curious parties wait and see how it takes hold in the market?
The Wii U is initially available in two distinct packages. On the lower end is the Basic Set, which includes a white Wii U console with 8GB of internal flash storage, a white GamePad, separate AC adapters for the console and controller, an HDMI cable, and a sensor bar for Wii Remotes. The Basic Set is currently available on Amazon UK for £222.99.
For slab more cash, the Premium Pack serves up a black console and GamePad, the former offering 32GB of internal flash storage, and in addition to all of the accessories from the Basic Set, the bundle also features Nintendo Land, a charging cradle for the GamePad, as well as simple stands for both the GamePad and console. The Wii U Premium Pack is currently selling online for £299.
It's extremely difficult to recommend the Basic Set by comparison. Even for those uninterested in Nintendo Land, which serves as a smart tutorial for the system's various features, the huge increase in storage makes it an essential purchase – especially since only 3GB of the Basic Set's storage is usable for games, compared to 29GB on the Premium console.
The Wii U console itself looks somewhat similar to the original Wii in general build, yet features rounded edges and is notably longer – it measures 10.6 inches long and 6.75 inches wide, with a height of just 1.8 inches. While it reads and plays older Wii games on standard DVDs, the Wii U's native games run on new 25GB optical discs. GameCube discs will not run on the Wii U.
On the front of the system, you'll find power and eject buttons, each augmented by a small light. The white light by the eject button illuminates when a disc is in the system, while the power light changes from red to blue when the system is turned on. Below the disc slot is a hidden compartment with two USB ports and an SD Card slot for added storage.
Flip the system around and you'll find two more USB ports on the right, along with ports on the left for the HDMI cable, other types of AV outputs, power cable, and Wii sensor bar. External hard drives up to 2TB in size can be plugged into the system, though any hard drive will be formatted to work with the Wii U and cannot be used with other devices.
Out of the box, the Wii U only supports Wi-Fi (892.11b/g/n) connections, though a Wii LAN Adapter connected to a USB port can be used for wired Ethernet lines.
Nintendo hardware has a long history of being physically well built and reliable, and from our initial testing of the Wii U, we don't expect that to change. It seems sturdily assembled, though the glossy black plastic of the Pro unit is seriously prone to dust, fingerprints, and visible scratches.

2014 Harley-Davidson® Sportster® 1200 Custom
1200 Custom Key Features
1200 Custom
Key Features
Fat Front End
Leading the way for the 1200 Custom motorcycle is a fat, in-your-face front end. The thick triple clamp and beefy front tire wrapped around a 16-inch 5-spoke chrome cast wheel will not be denied. Take a look and you'll see the true custom character of a Sportster® motorcycle, but just a little fatter and a little more custom.
Rear LED Lighting
Low profile in style, but big and bright when you need it most. The rear LED beam on the 1200 Custom motorcycle fits the contours of the rear fender perfectly, and the array of fast-acting red LED lamps grabs everyone's attention both during the day and at night. License plate mounts are slotted nearby to offer a convenient and noticeable spot for your tag.
Chrome 5-Spoke Cast Wheels
When it comes to custom, standout wheels are a must. The 1200 Custom motorcycle features brilliant chrome 5-spoke wheels that cast striking reflections wherever you go. Custom style for a custom ride.
H-D1™ Factory Customization
Make it yours from the start. Now with H-D1™ factory customization, your personalized 1200 Custom motorcycle is built just for you from the Harley-Davidson factory. It's easy: use the online H-D1™ Bike Builder tool to configure a bike that fits your style and personality. Select from extended paint offerings and genuine H-D engines, wheels, seats, handlebars, footpeg positions and security. Bring your plan to your Harley-Davidson dealer for consultation and to place your order. Our employees go to work, building your motorcycle, according to your design, and in about 4 weeks* your masterpiece will be ready for you at your dealer.
Evolution® Engine Heritage
The Evolution® engine—known in certain crowds as the Blockhead—was first bolted to the frame of a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle back in 1984. Born from legendary Shovelhead and Ironhead engines, the Evolution® engine broke new ground in displacement innovation while maintaining the hunger for power, durability and proven reliability that The Motor Company was built on.
Evolution® Engine Innovation
Air-cooled and durable as hell, the 1200cc Evolution® engine is yet another nod to the unwavering work ethic that drives advancements in motor technology at Harley-Davidson. Aluminum heads and cylinders lighten the load of the bike and improve air-cooling efficiency. Electronic fuel injection says goodbye to carburetors and boasts increased reliability and less routine maintenance. Bottom line: the rubber-mounted Evolution® engine runs hard and rides smooth for thousands of miles so you can just worry about taking in the freedom of the open road.
Pure Harley-Davidson Styling
Feast your eyes on the 1200cc Evolution® engine and there's no mistaking its roots. This is authentic Harley-Davidson style through and through with an attention to detail you won't find from any other motorcycle company. Black powder-coated cylinders and cylinder heads are topped off with chrome rocker covers, while chrome pushrods highlight the iconic V-Twin. It's a jewel machined out of metal. Pure. Dripping with power. From the classic edge of the cooling fins to the clean lines of cases and covers—the 1200c Evolution® engine makes an ironclad statement to holding on to what's right and staying true to what satisfies the rider.
H-D® Smart Security System (Optional)
The factory installed next-generation security system features a hands-free fob that automatically arms and disarms the vehicle electronic security functions as you approach and walk away from the bike. Stick the fob on your ignition key ring and let it do all the work. It's this attention to details and security that make Harley-Davidson® motorcycles unique.
New Foundation Brake System
Like riding itself, you can never go too far when it comes to improving a bike's brakes. This is why for 2014 we gave the brake system of each Sportster model a complete overhaul designed to improve performance, fit and finish. We increased the size of the brake rotors from 292mm to 300mm, and added a more powerful, stylized front caliper with 34mm pistons, and stylized rear caliper to match. Other system features include an improved all-aluminum integrated rear master cylinder with reservoir, new all-aluminum front master cylinder with reduced friction and higher efficiency, and stainless steel braided lines. It all adds up to more confidence on the road, and more power and predictability when you squeeze the brakes.
Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS) (Optional)
When the burrito exit comes out of nowhere, you'll need a little extra braking power. That's why we're proud to introduce optional anti-lock brakes (ABS) on all Sportster models. ABS improves overall braking performance, and keeps you from locking up under heavy braking. Plus, the entire system is smartly integrated into the design of the bike, so nothing gets in the way of your steel work of art. Because what's the point of stopping if you can't make a few heads turn?
New Ergonomic Hand Controls
If your hands feel good on the controls you'll feel good on the bike. Which is why when you twist the throttle of a Harley-Davidson, you just know. You feel more dialed in, comfortable and attuned to the road and everything around you. In designing the new hand controls we went the extra mile to make sure every operation is as intuitive, fluid and effortless as possible. So you can keep your eyes on what's over the next ridge and not what's under your thumb. Things like self-canceling turn signals that are right where you want them to be and brake levers that are easy for all riders to reach. We've added new features, too, like a trip switch and vehicle "start" switch on keyless models. Details that may seem small but make a huge difference on the road. Because it's tiny things like these that make a Harley-Davidson a Harley-Davidson.
Integrated Electrical System
Coursing through every 2014 Sportster model is a new body controller with updated routing. It has a cleaner look and reduces the number of wiring harnesses, switches, relays and fuses. Which is a fancy way of saying less fuss. We've also added a new voltage regulator with modified fins and integrated connectors to improve heat rejection. Like you, the 2014 Sportster® motorcycles are wired and ready to chase wind and eat up miles of pavement.
New Closed Loop Exhaust System
Designed to meet future worldwide emissions standards, and the standards of future generations of Harley-Davidson riders. The new closed loop exhaust system delivers heart-pounding performance in the key of the trademark Harley-Davidson rumble. With its robust, soul-stirring big twin design, new durable mufflers with exhaust shields, a catalyst and mini heated oxygen sensors that improve emissions and drivability, this system is not only better for the environment, it makes riding better.
Tach and Gear Indicator Readout
Even though none of us would want to admit it, from time to time, we've all had to kick our shift lever back down to 1 to figure out what gear we were in. This year the Sportster® models get a new speedometer with a gear indicator readout and a tachometer that can be activated by your trip switch. Now you've got all the information you need to keep it in the power band at the touch of a finger.
Michelin® Scorcher™ Tires
Michelin® Scorcher™ Tires provide the superior performance, sensational grip, impressive durability and excellent handling expected on a race-bred bike. The exclusive deep-cut tread design improves grip and water evacuation capability. Grip performance and durability is also enhanced by the tire's rubber compounds, which use the latest generation of Michelin synthetic polymers. Under the rear rubber, aramid belts are used to stabilize your ride, which helps inspire confidence in handling.
Forward-Mounted Controls
With the custom forward-mounted controls on the 1200 Custom motorcycle, you can kick back a little and stretch your legs for the ultimate cruise through town or across the state line. It's time to take in the open road the way you were meant to—on a two-wheeled machine that keeps it as real as you do.
Pullback Handlebar
Sink into the saddle and let your arms fall naturally to the grips. The 1200 Custom motorcycle is equipped with a pullback handlebar that creates a comfortable, laidback cruising position. Stainless steel for a tough custom look, and about one inch closer to your chest, you're ready to take on the road ahead.
Two-Up Custom Seat
The 1200 Custom motorcycle sports a sleek one-piece, two-up classic seat that has all the premium material, stitching and style you expect from Harley-Davidson, the motorcycle makers who've been putting their own seats in the saddle for over a hundred years. It's a great seat to go solo, and has plenty of room to bring along a friend.

Post subject: Base Commanding Officer (CO) Nominations
Hi everyone, in this thread we'll be accepting nominations for Base Commanding Officer (CO).
According to the Rebel Legion charter, nominations may be made starting 12:01 A.M. EST September 1st and continue until 11:59 P.M. EST, September 10th.
All nominations must be seconded. A member may nominate themselves but that will require a second and third nomination. Standing officers must post their desire to seek another term or if they decline to seek another term (no response is considered a decline). A second is not required for standing officers.
If there are no nominations made for a particular office by 11:59 P.M. EST September 10th, then the officers holding these positions will remain in office. If a standing Outpost or Base Commander chooses not seek another term and no nominations are made for that unit, the XO must accept or decline being promoted to CO. If the XO declines (no response is considered a decline) then the Legion Council is empowered to appoint a new CO or to consider having the unit absorbed into a neighboring unit due to lack of leadership.
Also please be sure to participate in the nominations for Legion Council, Legion Commanding Officer (LCO) and any Detachments or other sub-units you belong to.

I really enjoyed being CO, and if wanted I will also take up this role in the future. Do mind that my private life is getting busier and busier all the time, so just as last year I will have to delegate tasks to my fantastic XO, Stijn, and other active members.
If someone feels that Stijn should be CO I will not stand his nomination in the way. I will not nominate him because that might look like I'm not willing to be CO anymore, but I sure will support him.
If someone else wants to take up the command, please nominate yourself or the person you'd like to be in command. I only ask that this member has enough knowledge of the RL standards, the working of our base, and that he can make up the necessary time to take up this role seriously.

Il Divo: Wicked Game
Witness the evil genius of Simon Cowell's pop opera "Frankenstein" live on Il Divo tour dates! See this multi-national and multi-talented quartet performing "Wicked Game" and more at upcoming concerts!
About Il Divo
Il Divo is the brainchild of Simon Cowell, pop guru and American Idol curmudgeon; he was inspired by a collaboration between Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli's classical crossover "Con te Partiro." The Idol mastermind carried out a worldwide search between 2001 and 2003 for international singers willing to accompany this style. It was then he discovered American tenor David Miller, Spanish Baritone Carlos Marin, Swiss tenor Urs Buhler and French pop artist Sebastien Izambard. Honing in on the fairly new operatic pop subgenre of music, Il Divo has reached sales of 22 million with six albums under their belt! Singing in English, Spanish French, Italian and Latin, Il Divo has received worldwide acclaim for thier highly diverse sound.
But don't think that Simon did all the work. Each member of Il Divo has a well developed past in musical training and performance. Urs Buhler began singing in a local choir at the young age of five, he also played the violin, clarinet, piano, drums and guitar. He later studied voice at the Sweelink Conservatorium and continued training under French Tenor Christian Papis and Stockholm's Royal Opera tenor Gosta Winbergh.
Sebastien Izambard, the pop star of the group, had a solo slbum in circulation before Il Divo and he is the only member that is not classically trained in opera or operatic pop. Regardless, this self taught musician is a cultivated composer and highly regarded piano and guitar player.
David Miller, an American Tenor, studied Vocal Performance and Opera Theatre at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. Miller can add Il Divo to his already extensive repetoire of music including: Manon, La Traviata and La Boheme.
Carlos Marin, a Spanish baritone, recorded his first album when he was eight years old, his second album was released two years later. Between the ages of 15 and 20 Marin received numerous awards for his vocal abilities as he dilligently studied piano and solfeo. Having studied under Alfredo Kraus and Jaume Aragall, Marin has seen fame in musicals such as Les Miserables and movies such as The Nightmare Before Christmas.
It is clear that Il Divo is a seasoned group of music masters. They released their sixth studio album The Promise in November 2008 and it was labeled as their "richest and most diverse album to date." Covering songs by ABBA and Leonard Cohen, The Promise was an epic crowd pleaser.
2011's Wicked Game and 2013's A Musical Affair have brought new audiences into the fold and Il Divo aims to please. Their new musical promises to wow audiences already accustomed to their artistry and technique with performances designed to pay homage to the greatest musicals of all time.

AT&T Data Plan Is 'a Wolf in Sheep's Clothing'
Open Internet advocates are warning that AT&T's 'sponsored data' program could create pay-to-play mobile Web. It has also been described as a new form of double-dipping, where both customers and businesses are charged for the same data usage.
Thu, January 09, 2014
[ Best of CES 2014: In Pictures ]
On Monday, the telecom giant unveiled the sponsored data program for its wireless network, a program that will allow businesses to foot the bill for the bandwidth of their videos, applications or other content, rather than counting it against subscribers' monthly data caps.
For digital rights groups like Public Knowledge and Free Press, the plan of the nation's second-largest wireless provider appears another step toward a pay-for-play Internet where carriers and well-heeled companies can reach agreements that amount to giving preferential treatment to certain types of content over others. Businesses that could not afford to pay -- garage startups are a favorite example -- might find themselves at an even steeper competitive disadvantage against their larger and more established rivals.
AT&T bills the plan as a boon for consumers, promising no-cost delivery of popular content from companies that choose to participate. The company says sponsored and non-sponsored data will be delivered at the same speed, but that content from a participating company will be marked as such so consumers will know that it won't count against their data plan.
"[C]ustomers just look for the sponsored data icon and they know the data related to that particular application or video is provided as a part of their monthly service," AT&T Mobility President and CEO Ralph de la Vega said in a statement, calling the service a "win-win for customers and businesses."
But proponents of net neutrality -- the notion that carriers should treat all information travelling over their networks equally -- the plan raises fresh questions about potential harms from data caps as a business practice. Public Knowledge, for instance, reiterated its longstanding call for the Federal Communications Commission to open a formal investigation into usage caps, which spokesman Bartees Cox described as "anticompetitive."
Josh Levy, Internet campaign director at Free Press, called AT&T's plan a "wolf in sheep's clothing," describing it as "a new form of double dipping" -- charging customers and businesses alike for data usage -- and warning that it will translate into higher prices as the costs of sponsoring content are shifted back to mobile subscribers.
Public Knowledge raised concerns last year when rumors surfaced that ESPN was in negotiations with a carrier to pay for an exemption to consumers' data caps. The group has said that such an exemption would be "an obvious violation of net neutrality."

Gov't Developing Smart Suits to Protect U.S. Troops From Bio Attacks
A U.S. soldier is on patrol with his squad when he kneels to check something out, unknowingly putting his knee into a puddle of contaminants.
Thu, February 20, 2014
Computerworld — A U.S. soldier is on patrol with his squad when he kneels to check something out, unknowingly putting his knee into a puddle of contaminants.
The soldier isn't harmed, though, because he or she is wearing a smart suit that immediately senses the threat and transforms the material covering his knee into a protective state that repels the potential deadly bacteria.
Scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, a federal government research facility in Livermore, Calif., are using nanotechnology to create clothing designed to protect U.S. soldiers from chemical and biological attacks.
The researchers turned to nanotechnology to overcome the tough task of creating military-grade protective clothing that's breathable and isn't heavy to wear.
"The threat is nanoscale so we need to work in the nano realm, which helps to keep it light and breathable," said Francesco Fornasiero, a staff scientist at the lab. "If you have a nano-size threat, you need a nano-sized defense."
For a little more than a year, the team of scientists has focused on developing a proof of concept suit that's both tough and inexpensive to manufacture. The lab group is teaming up with scientists from MIT, Rutgers University, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and other schools to get it done.
Fornasiero said the task is a difficult one, and the suits may not be ready for the field for another 10 to 20 years.
Ross Kozarsky, a senior analyst with Boston-based Lux Research, said the effort could also lead to a lot of other uses for smart nano-based clothing or devices.
"I think it's definitely innovative. It's a pretty powerful platform technology," he added. "Materials that intelligently react to their external surroundings -- that is certainly an interesting class of materials. This is at the front end of the tunnel. Imagine an athlete wearing some kind of clothing that reacts to humidity or temperature and can make itself a lighter or warmer shirt."
Kozarsky also noted that smart clothing could be used for personal tasks, like measuring a user's heart beat, pulse and blood pressure.
The technology could also lead to smart footwear, which could, for example, transform itself to repel potential danger found in water and keeping the user's feet dry.
The military also might consider adapting the base technology so instead of a nano-infused fabric transforming itself to protect a human from a biological or chemical attack, the smart material could be body armor that automatically strengthens itself based on the stress it's under.

Abby-Kate for the Lewis family — AL
Charlie and Jeanie have been married for thirteen years. After meeting at church when they were just children, Charlie and Jeanie were reunited later in life. They fell in love and were married at the church where they had met. They, along with their three boys, have a wonderful story to share.
Did you know that elephants can carry their babies for an incredible 21.5 months? Can you imagine having to wait that long to meet your precious little one? The Lewis family understands the pain of the wait. They have waited to complete their adoption for 10 years. After committing to a child in 2003, they completed almost the entire adoption process—minus travel—of a beautiful visually-impaired young girl.
Two years into the process, they were joyfully awaiting a travel date to adopt their daughter when they received a phone call no parent ever wishes to receive. Though they had steadfastly exhausted themselves to raise funds, enjoyed the process of preparing a bedroom, celebrated with an "adoption shower," and were fully approved…..their daughter would not be coming home. Her country had politically closed its doors to adoptions from U.S. citizens. Stunned, they were left to heal and wonder what would ever come of the precious one they had come to love.
After a second trimester miscarriage, they decided a few years later to try to adopt a child through the Department of Human Resources. With full approval of DHR (having taken 10 weeks of classes and received an approved home study), they patiently waited to have a child placed in their home. Encouraged to be patient, the Lewis family worked with DHR for over a year and did not receive one placement.
Now the Lewis's have come full circle. They have taken time to pray and seek God for what His perfect will would be for their family. And, believe it or not, they have received the referral of a perfect little girl who just so happens to be visually-impaired. In fact, this child has the exact same eye condition that their previous "daughter" had. And though she will need surgery and will remain partially blind, she will be able to "see" and feel and know the love that her family has for her every day of her life.
Overjoyed, the Lewis's await bringing their daughter home after a 10-year "gestation" of the heart.

If you're using that little water, you will have a hard time scalding anybody. The heat loss as it dribbles through the pipeing system is going to take a toll.
I am looking to install a mixing valve on our current water heater so I can increse the temperature to 140 to 150 and not be scalded. I was looking at the Honeywell AMX300 mixing valve that attaches directly to the top of the water heater.
The specs list the minimum flow rate as 0.25 gpm. My question is what will happen if you open a hot faucet just a trickle and have a flow rate less than 0.25 gpm? Will you get scalded with 140 or 150 deg water? Or is the mixing valve just not quite as accurate below 0.25 gpm?
If you're using that little water, you will have a hard time scalding anybody. The heat loss as it dribbles through the pipeing system is going to take a toll.
Next question... Can a recirculating pump be added to this system? This valve has a cold water return inlet and the product manual siad this can be done if you add an aquistat and a temperature controlled pump on the return line. But then I read online that this will not work because the mixing valve does not mix unless there is flow. Therefore it would put superheated water in the hot-water lines.
A recirc system draws water through the line, just like you opened the faucet, but instead of dumping it, it goes through the return line back to the WH. On a retrofit system, you may not have a dedicated return line, and then, they use the cold line and a thermostatically controlled crossover to allow flow when the hot isn't hot enough.

So it sounds like I could use the Grundfos Comfort System with the mixing valve and not have to add a dedicated return line. Is this correct?
That should work and is reported to be a good system. FWIW, I have a RedyTemp unit (more expensive, easier, to me anyways to install) that works well.
Jim DeBruycker
Important note - I'm not a pro
Retired Defense Industry Engineer; Schluter 2.5-day Workshop Completed 2013, 2014
Without an actual "flow" there is no way for cold water to pass through the valve to cool the water down. A Comfort system does NOT remedy that problem. It will still produce full temperature water at the faucet until the "tempered/mixed water" can fill the pipe.
Licensed residential and commercial plumber
Is there any way to get a circulator system to work with a tempering valve (and not get super hot water in the lines)?
All that said, depending on how the piping is laid out WRT trunks and branches, there may be the remote possibility of a small slug of scalding hot water in the line getting to the POU, much like the "cold sandwich" does on a tankless.
There are ways to use a tempering valve and circulation system, but they involve mixing the "circualted" water into the cold inlet fo the mixer.
Licensed residential and commercial plumber
Since the mixing valve adds water from the cold side into the stream that is circulated, essentially the recirc pump will put back more water (blended cold plus hot) than it took out of the tank if it returns to the bottom of the tank. The extra water then has to flow backwards out the cold inlet but since it is now blended, it will no longer be cold. Depending on how far this blended hot water has to travel (heat loss over distance) before it is reintroduced into the tempering valve, the re-blended hot water could conceivably be hotter than what the tempering valve is set to.
Okay, I must be missing something obvious...with a retrofit system, at the cross-over point, it is getting the hot water from the tempering valve at the WH. The pump is pushing (or pulling) that water back through the cold water line which is going into the WH on the cold inlet side. So, since this is not normally ever hotter than the setting of the cross-over, the 'cold' inlet to the tempering valve would never be above the 100-105 degree range, while the hot from the WH could easily be much hotter. Why would the hot water line end up hotter than the setting of the tempering valve? Worst case, it might be nearly 100% from the cold side, which wouldn't be more than the cross-over point's setting, or don't I understand the limitations of a typical tempering valve.
What am I missing? I could see this being an issue with a dedicated return line, since returning the hot to say the drain or cold input might back up and feed the tempering valve, too, but not with using the cold line as the return controlled by the aquastat in the crossover.

I found the installation instructions for the mixing valve I was planning on using: http://www.forwardthinking.honeywell...ll/62_3112.pdf
This valve connects directly to the water heater and has a special circulating return inlet on the valve (see page 3). Also, Figure 5 shows just a aquastat and a pump on the return line going into the return inlet. So it looks like this could work.
HJ, is this return inlet the same thing you were referring to?

Fighting for my first authorship of a professional publication
A scientific research publication, which contains >80% out of my work, is unfairly having my authorship as second one. What Shall I do?
The first author has done neither written nor main contribution to whole work of the article. The reason why it happens is that I left that lab before all the necessary data had been collected and the lab of the 1st author is the one my boss needs to keep cooperating with.
Where else I can complain with and what should I do to protect my right?
May anyone who has such unfortunate experience give me some advices?
so frustrated!
alien1 said:
thank to foils. I tried but didn't work. whole thing gets more dirty. the leader of lab need to use the publication to make his connection with other group smoother. I am simply fed up arguing with him. He is up handed and he play it as always. not the end of world, i tell myself.
dont give up so easily. my brother had the same issue in US, he was doing his post doc at harvard when the paper he worked upon was about to publish in science journal Nature and he was told that he will be second author. bascially his boss has some ccollaboration with other lab where the research work was carried with another guy and the lab's collaboration was needed for all future works also
my bro put his feet down and told his boss that the paper should have him at the first author or doesnt get published at all. he told about all the mail exchanges that he has as proof and all the relevant docs to show that he has carried out major part of the work and in writing the paper. he infact also recorded the conversations between him and his boss and the co-worker. finally they budged after being given legal warnings and the paper was published with his name as first author. ofcourse the relationships soured between him and his boss but then he has a paper in his name in Nature
if you have your proof i wud say go for it
all the best

A relatively new health and wellness group is planning a community event.
The Burlington Wholistic Community has set aside Saturday, March 23, from 11 a.m.-5 p.m., at the Polish Hall, 2316 Fairview St., for its first public event.
Lisbeth Fregonese and Debra Harding founded The Burlington Wholistic Community last year as a way to introduce the general public to natural health and wellness.
"I am an energy worker and meditation facilitator and my friend Debra Harding is a Reiki Master and also a meditation facilitator in Burlington," Fregonese said in an e-mail to the Post.
"We both have a passion for helping others in healing and enhancing their own lives. This is the reason that The Burlington Wholistic Community was created," she added.
For a $20 entrance fee attendees will have the opportunity to experience massages, reflexology, reiki, quantum touch, have readings done, receive energy healing, learn about raw food, organic food, yoga etc.
The admission fee also includes lunch, coffee, tea, live music and a guest speaker.
To attend, send an RSVP by e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com or call 289-828-3640. Walk-in attendees will be accepted.

Scheduled events include a look-alike contest for stocky white-bearded men resembling Hemingway, readings and book signings, an awards ceremony for the renowned literary competition directed by author and Hemingway granddaughter Lorian Hemingway, a commemoration of the 115th anniversary of Ernest's July 21 birth, a museum exhibit of rare Hemingway memorabilia, a zany "Running of the Bulls" and a three-day marlin tournament recalling Hemingway's devotion to the deep-sea sport.
During his Key West residence, Ernest Hemingway wrote some of his most enduring works and spent his leisure hours fishing and socializing with local and literary cohorts. Each year, fans of his writing and exuberant lifestyle come together for Hemingway Days.

I do! My oldest is just 3, but we`re starting to do preschool work with him. Also, I was homeschooled my entire life, so I have that experience, as well. We plan to teach both our boys at home.

Personally, I think your best option is to look at starting your own business. Is there something you are good at doing or making? Some great work at home ideas include sewing, writing, and teaching classes. I would stay away from anything you find that promises quick money online . . . chances are it`s a scam. However, looking for work instead of actual jobs, or advertising your service or product is far more likely to pan out. I actually write about this on my blog, www.athomemomblog.com, if you`re interested.

Red chalk and wash heightened with gouache and buff oil overpaint, 25.5 x 28.6cm
Rubens did this drawing during his first trip abroad to Italy between 1600 and 1608. It is copied from Michelangelo's famous paintings on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Rubens returned to Antwerp with many such drawings. They were used as 'reference material' for himself and his workshops assistants and pupils to study and copy.
This drawing faithfully copies the central part of the Sistine Chapel ceiling, but is also enhanced with Rubens's own qualities. The cherubs become more vigorous, God's face becomes even more intense and his muscular torso ripples more emphatically through the clinging tunic. The handling of the red chalk is masterly, despite it being a relatively new medium to the artist. Although made in 1601 / 1602, the distinctive highlights were not added until much later, around the early 1630s.
As well as being exercises in drawing and study aids, these drawings were also used to help solve compositional problems. The crossed-legged pose of God, for example, is echoed in a later painting of the crucified Christ, 'Raising of the Cross', of 1602.

Wall Street Journal (09.27.12)
On September 27, the city's health department alerted local doctors about a deadly outbreak of bacterial meningitis among HIV-infected gay males in New York City. The outbreak has occurred over the last two years and includes a total of 12 cases and four deaths. The outbreak has recently accelerated, as four of those 12 cases were identified in the last month, during which one person died and another person was in critical condition. Investigators are trying to discover how the infection spread. The people with whom the men were in close contact have been treated with antibiotics. Bacterial meningitis can cause swelling of the membranes covering the spinal cord and brain. It is a rare disease, but people with HIV have weakened immune systems and are more susceptible to bacterial meningitis.
