RULAND Manufacturing, represented in Australia by Naismith Engineering , precision hones the bores on all of its rigid couplings with straight bores.
Honing has several benefits that enhance the overall performance of the coupling.
Applications that require strict control of shaft alignment benefit greatly from honing, which assures both bores are collinear. The collinear bores even allow the coupling to be used as a shaft alignment mechanism.
In contrast, installing an imprecise rigid coupling can introduce misalignment into a system and cause early failure of bearings, seals, or other components.
Honing also corrects any residual distortions caused by stresses introduced during the manufacturing process, resulting in a round, precisely sized bore. Proper sizing and geometry assures a large percentage of shaft contact and greater torque transmission ability. This can sometimes make a keyway unnecessary with a possible reduction in labour and material cost.
Ruland rigid couplings are offered in one- or two-piece styles in aluminium, black oxide carbon steel and stainless steel with bore sizes from 1/8" to 2" in the inch series and 3mm to 50mm in the metric series.
The couplings are available with or without keyways. In addition to precision honed straight bore couplings, a wide range of stepped bore couplings are manufactured.
While set screw-style rigid couplings are available, the Nomar clamp-style rigid couplings featured by Ruland do not mar the shaft like set-screw type couplings.
Clamp-style rigid couplings also have higher holding power because they wrap around the shaft when tightened, thus applying compressive stress nearly uniformly on the circumference of the shaft.
Two-piece clamp-style rigid couplings have an additional advantage since they can be installed on the shaft without removing other components.
All Nomar Ruland rigid couplings are supplied with Nypatch hardware that resists loosening under vibration.
Rigid couplings are part of Ruland's complete line of shaft collars, rigid couplings and motion control couplings.
All Ruland products are stamped with the Ruland name for easy identification.

Financial market participants require fast, concise and accurate information to successfully operate in today's markets. Deutsche Börse's ...
Financial professionals believe that the Eurozone will not retain its current structure in future - and is likely to evolve into a two-tier club - while the UK should remain a member of the European Union. At the same time, the Eurozone crisis has undermined financial markets' confidence in the region and participants are demanding greater transparency of the EU policy-making process.
These findings come from the inaugural MNI Eurozone Barometer, a survey conducted by Market News International (MNI). MNI is a leading provider of news and intelligence for the global foreign exchange, fixed income and commodities markets and part of Deutsche Börse Group. The research conducted by MNI's Euro Insight intelligence service for economic and financial policy in Europe questioned about 170 senior financial professionals.
"In the context of the current market volatility related to uncertainty of Chinese growth and U.S. interest rates, the Eurozone is now perceived as something of a safe haven among investors", said Matthew Saltmarsh, senior Euro Insight analyst at MNI, commenting on the survey. "However, institutional investors believe that a two-tier Europe is the most likely way forward, rather than full fiscal integration."
Among the three most important findings from this survey was that most doubt the Eurozone will ever achieve a full fiscal union. According to the survey, 43% thought that a "two-speed" euro area was likely to emerge in the future; 35% disagreed with the premise and 22% were undecided. Under this scenario, a core group of countries would bind more closely together to pool sovereignty, especially around fiscal policy, while a second group of countries would step back from deeper integration.
Secondly, a clear majority prefers the status quo with regard to UK and the EU, saying the UK will and should stay in EU, but avoid euro assimilation. With the question of a possible British exit from the EU moving up the agenda before the referendum on the question, due by 2017, a clear majority (72%) said it was very likely, likely or somewhat likely that London would still be inside the Union in 2020. Only 14% of respondents thought that the UK should sever ties with Brussels and only 8% thought the country should abandon the pound for the euro.
The third major finding was that investors expect that the euro will continue to exist in its current form. 59% of financial professionals felt that despite the recent upheavals, the euro would still exist in its current form in 2020; against 18%, who said it was unlikely or very unlikely.

The survey was conducted during August and September 2015 via an email survey of MNI's Foreign Exchange and Fixed Income buy-side and sell-side communities, asking a series of questions focused on the likelihood of and possible financial market reactions to various Eurozone crisis scenarios. The results were analysed by MNI's Euro Insight team, which provides insight and behind the scenes analysis of Brussels' opaque policy-making processes.

Calculating new car loan rates is most of the time difficult because there are many factors involved in it. Knowing the exact amount needed for the repayment of the vehicle is also difficult. You still need to understand how the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) and the Annual Percentage Yield (APY) affects the loan rates for a new vehicle despite the abundance of online car loan calculators. This article explains the APR and APY to help you get a better idea on how the new car loan rates are calculated.
Annual Percentage Rate (APR)
The Annual Percentage Rate is a popular concept used by lenders when you inquire about the interest rates of the loans they offer. This may sound common but only few car buyers know what this concept really means. The APR is basically the amount of interest computed within a year. However, most lenders use the monthly interest rates to promote that their loan rates are lower compared to what the other lenders are offering. Thus, the monthly interest rate of a car loan is calculated using the formula written below.
Monthly Percentage Rate = Annual Percentage Rate/12
This means that if your present car loan has a 0.4% monthly interest rate, you are actually paying a 4.8% Annual Percentage Rate. Thus, you need to select a loan with APR lower than 4.8% or a monthly percentage rate lower than .4%.
Annual Percentage Yield (APY)
The Annual Percentage Yield is the accrued amount of the loan in a single year. Compared to APR that uses a simple interest, the APY uses a compounded interest. By knowing the APY, you are able to determine the ways in which the interest rate affects the needed money to pay the total loaned amount for a new car. It is usually calculated using the formula given below.
Annual Percentage Yield= (1+APR/n)^n-1
In this formula, the APY stands for the Annual Percentage Yield, APR stands for the Annual Percentage Rate, and "n" stands for the number of times that the interest rate is compounded in a year.

Style and safety are two of the major considerations why drivers like you purchase a Honda Civic. These aspects are also two of the many reasons why the model is being supported by many buyers worldwide. One part that contributes to these features is the bumper covers. These are components made of plastic, steel, or fiberglass that serve as safety features by protecting the actual bumper material. And since it is located right in front of the car, it is an integral styling accessory that affects the look of the vehicle as a whole. Indeed, your bumper covers are very important, and you should be watchful for signs of damage in this part.
There would come a time when you might notice your Honda Civic bumper covers are giving out rattling sounds while you drive. The sounds are associated with that of rattling tin cans. These noises are produced when your bumper covers are rubbing against nearby parts like the fenders and the bumper. This is due to a loose mounting hardware. When you experience this, you might want to check the screws and bolts holding your bumper covers. To fix the problem, you may need to remove and reinstall the bumper covers.
Another effect of an issue with the mounting hardware and brackets is misaligned or even loose bumper covers. You must remember that the position of your Honda Civic bumper covers is very important because it has to be completely aligned with the bumper material and not cause any problem with the headlights and fog lights. The easy fix would be repositioning the misaligned or loose bumper covers.
A warp or dent in the bumper covers can be caused by two problems. The first and the more obvious reason is a low-impact collision. Needless to say, once your bumper covers hit something, it has the tendency to bend or develop a dent. A more uncommon cause of the problem is an issue with the mounting brackets. This occurs when these metal brackets bend, disfiguring the bumper covers.
The easiest sign of damaged bumper covers is a crack. Like dents, this can be caused by a low-impact collision. Good thing is that a small crack can be remedied with soapy water, soldering iron, and sandpaper.
The Honda Civic's debut in the early '70s came exactly at a time when people were looking for alternatives to gas-guzzling muscle cars. As oil prices soared and emission standards from the EPA became stricter, the Civic ushered in the dawn of fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly cars. To this day, this compact car is beloved for its performance, affordability, and style.
To learn more about the Honda Civic, let's take a closer look at one of its components: the bumper cover.
The bumper cover is a high density reinforced plastic panel that houses your car's crash safety components. It also serves an aesthetic purpose, giving the Civic its distinct look. These are installed in both the front and rear ends of a car. The front bumper cover protects the engine and the headlights in a forward collision, while the rear bumper cover protects the trunk and tail lights.
The bumper cover is an external component that is fitted over the metal bumper beam. It is designed to absorb shock and crumple during a low-speed collision. It protects other safety systems like your car's headlights and taillights from impact damage.
Before the '70s, cars were fitted with heavy chrome bumpers meant to keep them safe during collisions. While it sounded good in theory, road accidents at the time still ended with mangled vehicles and critically injured passengers.
As stricter regulations demanded better safety systems for low-speed collisions, manufacturers started switching out metal bumpers for plastic. The idea was to create crumple or crush zones designed to absorb impact and prevent transferring its energy to the passenger cabin.
Engineers achieved this by finding a balance between flexible and rigid components. They designed a bumper cover lined with a flexible bumper absorber. This thermoplastic foam is meant to slow down the crumpling of the cover after getting hit by an external force. Then they attached the cover to a rigid reinforcement bar to provide the assembly stability.
The bumper brackets that connect the bumper kit to the vehicle frame can either be flexible or rigid. Some brackets are meant to be stiff mounts, while others are designed to collapse and redirect impact energy toward the front of the vehicle.
There have been ten generations of the Honda Civic, each with parts of varying sizes. Let us help you find the right bumper cover for your car by using our website's search engine. Simply plug in your vehicle's year, make, and model to browse through relevant parts.
The cost of a replacement Honda Civic bumper varies depending on the vehicle's year and model. OEM replacement parts typically range between $130 to $1,400. Bumper covers are either sold individually, in sets of two, or as part of a kit. While working on this part on your own is possible, we strongly recommend going to a trusted mechanic to ensure a proper and secure installation.
Dents and scratches on the bumper cover may not seem like a safety hazard, but it's better to have your car checked out by a professional after being involved in a major or minor collision. Your mechanic will be able to distinguish if a part is compromised and requires replacement. Here are other reasons why it's a good idea to have your bumper replaced as needed.
Fine cracks and bumper misalignment are hard to detect just by examining your car's exterior. Removing and replacing a bumper cover allows your mechanic to take a closer look at all of the car's crash safety components. This saves you from driving with damaged bumper absorbers, re-bar, or bumper brackets unknowingly.
Even minor collisions can compromise the integrity of your car's bumper. A single faulty part can significantly reduce its ability to absorb impact in a subsequent road accident. Replacing a damaged bumper cover ensures that your car's crash safety system is fully capable of minimizing vehicle damage and preventing critical injury.
Due to its location in the front and rear of your vehicle, bumper covers are bound to get a beating from daily use. It protects the engine and the rear compartment from kicked-up road debris such as rocks and branches. In winter climates, it can get damaged from hard ice, or hide rusting internal parts. Any kind of cosmetic or internal damage will affect your car's resale value.
The bumper covers in your cars are parts that play double roles. First, they are safety components that protect the actual bumper material and the parts in your underhood. Secondly, since they are available in different colors and designs, they are also integral styling factors that make your Honda Civic attractive. With these two roles, damaged bumper covers mean double troubles for your cars. Because of this, you need to take good care of your bumper covers to ensure that your cars are safe and appealing as they should be.
Wash your Honda Civic bumper covers on a weekly basis.
Most especially for cars being driven every single day, it is important that you clean at least the bumper covers once a week. The slightest dirt buildup can snowball into something undesirable to the eyes. The worst thing about this buildup is that they can stick to the bumper covers, making it difficult to remove. Before this happens, you need to take good care of your covers. Besides, all you need are rags, car-washing solutions, and vinyl cleaning gel.
Paint the bumper covers and the mounting brackets.
Rust is one of the major enemies of bumper covers. A small rust buildup can easily damage the bumper covers to the point where they would just pop out of the car body. To prevent developing of rusts, it is recommended that you apply paint even on the underside of your bumper covers. Since your mounting brackets are also of metal, you may also paint them as well.
Use fender covers when doing your car repairs.
While it is completely admirable that you are doing the repair of your cars on your own, certain accidents do happen. Tools and parts can drop into your bumper covers while you are doing these repairs. This can cause dents and cracks which just add up to the things you should fix in your cars. A good means of preventing this is by having fender covers. These are cloth covers that are laid on top of your fenders and bumper covers when doing your repairs, protecting them from possible damage.
The Honda Civic slowly crept into the American automotive scene as an economic performer. Some enthusiasts just can't get enough of when that V-tec kick in yo! When you drive through the highway and twisties on the mountainside, you feel the power on the front wheels as they grip the road. You just have to watch out for road hazards before they hit your bumper. A damaged bumper is not only an eye sore but is also a driving hazard. While the Honda Civic bumper cover is your front line protection, it also has other functions. It supports your Honda Civic's aerodynamics, air induction, and style. In order to prolong its lifespan, you have to take note of methods on how to preserve your bumper. Here are some of them:
We highly recommend that you drive on well-paved roads only. But in case you can't avoid driving through rough roads or those submerged in flood, you should do so slowly and with extra caution. Driving through these areas increases the likelihood of exposing your bumper to scratches, dings, and cracks.
Take a deep breath. Not all bumper damage will require you to visit your local body and paint shop right away. Minor scratches can be addressed using DIY fixes and some elbow grease. There are also rubbing compounds that can be easily found in auto shops that can be used for light scratches.
Once you have identified where the light scratches are, you can proceed with applying the rubbing compound. First, you have to clean the area where you will be applying the solution. Next, you have to apply a minimum amount of the solution then rub in on the scratch in a circular motion. Allow it to dry to a haze before wiping off the excess. You can further buff it by applying a little wax then polish it off to a gloss.
One of the most basic maintenance procedures for your bumper is including it on your regular car wash. First, you rinse off the dirt that have accumulated during your regular use. You then scrub off the surface with a sponge soaked in a car shampoo solution. Repeat as needed. Once you are able to remove the dirt and grime, you rinse the bumper again with clean running water. Wipe it dry with a clean cloth.
A Honda Civic bumper cover needs to be prepared first so that the paint will not flake or peel after a few days. The best way to prepare an aftermarket bumper cover is to sand its surface using a 300-grit sandpaper and by applying several coats of wax sealer, primer, and plastic sealer. Applying these compounds is very important because they will make the paint last for a long time.
The price of Honda Civic bumper covers depends on whether the covers are raw or primered. Raw bumper covers usually cost about 80 to 240 USD while primered ones have prices ranging from 94 to 350 USD.
Replacing a bumper cover is easy and can be done at home. However, various tools are needed in order to successfully do this task. Some of the important tools that should be on hand are Torx screwdriver, socket set, flat-head screwdriver, and wrench set. What's more, this should be done in a well-ventilated and spacious room because the bumper cover is a heavy and big car part.
The kind of primer that is best used when preparing a polypropylene bumper cover is urethane. This type of primer is preferred over other types of primers because it can last for a long time. What's more, unlike other kinds of primers such as lacquer, urethane does not shrink, swell, or crack.
A cracked bumper cover can be repaired by applying some epoxy around the cracked area. However, don't forget to hold the cracked area together for about five to ten minutes so that the epoxy will harden. Also, tape can be used to cover the crack to make sure that the epoxy will not drip.

New Palo Alto lab for life science startups
Two prominent life science accelerators in the Bay Area, StartX and QB3, are joining forces to open a lab in Palo Alto for early-stage companies.
StartX, which is affiliated with Stanford University, and QB3, which is led by the University of California, said Wednesday they will jointly operate a 2,000-square-foot lab near the Stanford campus. The space, which can accommodate up to 20 startups, is for faculty and students who are turning their research into commercial enterprises.
A bench in the StartX-QB3 Labs costs $1,500 a month and companies can stay for at least a year, said Andrew Lee, founder of the lab. Neither StartX nor QB3 will take equity.
Lee started his own biotech company, Stem Cell Theranostics, as a medical student and doctoral candidate at Stanford. He also coaches other life science entrepreneurs as a co-founder of StartX Med, the segment of the StartX accelerator program that helps health and medical startups sharpen their business plans, grow and seek partners.
In both roles, he noticed that young companies struggled with finding a place to work, since Stanford does not allow students to work on commercial projects on campus. Lee's company initially had to rent a lab in Sunnyvale for $4,500 a month.
Consumer tech startups don't need much equipment to get up and running, Lee said, but "one of the pain points common to chemistry, clean tech, hardware, medical devices and biotech is access to affordable and easily accessible lab space at the early stages."
StartX-QB3 Labs is open to entrepreneurs from the StartX program and elsewhere. Built by Alexandria Real Estate, a major developer of life science facilities in the region, the space contains fume hoods, a molecular biology core, a tissue culture core, an autoclave, a glass wash, workbenches and a hardware prototyping room. Renovating the space, which had been occupied by another lab, cost an estimated $1 million, Lee said.
QB3, which stands for the California Institute for Quantitative Biosciences, was founded by Gov. Gray Davis in 2000 to drive innovation in biomedical research. Its network includes several labs in the Bay Area and includes faculty at UCSF, UC Berkeley and UC Santa Cruz.
"Co-locating high-caliber scientific researchers within the resource-rich environment of StartX will significantly and rapidly improve the odds of success for these early-stage life-science companies," said Douglas Crawford, associate director of QB3 and co-director of StartX-QB3 labs, in a statement.
A few companies have already moved in, including Nirmidas Biotech, a five-person team spun out of Stanford and formed last year. Nirmidas has a nanomaterial used in fluorescence-based diagnostics, which it says could allow for earlier detection of diseases such as diabetes and cancer. Previously, the team ran its operations out of a QB3 lab in San Francisco's Mission Bay neighborhood.
"It's so expensive to rent a little life science lab ourselves," said Meijie Tang, CEO of Nirmidas. "To rent a small space here, it's affordable, and we can utilize core facilities and we don't have to buy everything of our own."

World Anesthesia Disposables Market to Post 4.03% CAGR, Says Infiniti Research in Its Study Available at MarketPublishers.com
28 Apr 2016 • by Natalie Aster
LONDON – Healthcare-acquired infections (HAI), or nosocomial infections, are a key threat to the safety of patients. Organisations like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Public Health England conduct monitoring of medical facilities by virtue of routine surveillance programmes to diagnose the infection type and expend some effort towards prevention. To prevent various nosocomial infections during a surgery that involves general anesthesia, medical personnel encourage the usage of disposable anesthesia devices such as laryngeal masks, face masks, breathing systems, endotracheal tubes, and resuscitators. These masks are also capable of guarding against cross-contamination. Anesthesia disposables are single-use consumable items.
Globally, the market for anesthesia disposables is poised to expand at 4.03% CAGR through 2020. The forces propelling the growth of the industry comprise an upsurge in chronic respiratory diseases, low risk of HAIs, enlarged number of surgical operations, booming geriatric population, and a rise in the healthcare expenditure from pole to pole. The market has also seen a move to anesthesia disposables in the developed world, increase in anesthesia product marketing via Internet, and technology advances. However, the demand for myocardial infarction MI procedures, insufficient reimbursement, high prices for disposables, and the lack of skilled anesthesiologists are hindering the market growth.
Comprehensive information and insightful analysis on the global anesthesia disposables market is available in the new report "Global Anesthesia Disposables Market 2016-2020" elaborated by Infiniti Research. The research publication analyses the market categorising it by product and geography.

George F. Walker follows a pair of grown-ups we first met as teenage lovers
THE DAMAGE DONE by George F. Walker (Canadian Rep). At the Citadel (304 Parliament). Runs to December 11. $21-$32, Sunday pwyc. See listing. 416-946-3065, canadianrep.ca. Rating: NNN
Like some couples you know, George F. Walker's Tina and Bobby can't live together, can't live apart.
Audiences first met the Toronto east-end Toronto pair as teenagers in Tough and later Moss Park, with Tina pregnant and the two uncertain what to do. In The Damage Done, they return as grown-ups to the same park where we first saw them nearly two decades earlier. Some superficial things are different, but the core nature of their relationship is unchanged, including their regular and seemingly inevitable recriminations and arguments that probably began in kindergarten.
Tina (Sarah Murphy-Dyson) has married another guy and moved up socially and economically. She's now a social worker and living in the burbs with the two daughters she shares with Bobby (Wes Berger), while he's still caught in dreams, schemes and disasters. His latest plan: to be a playwright, his script based in part on their history. (In fact, what we hear of it sounds like a very George F. Walker-ish script.)
At first it seems she has her life pretty much together, while he's the aimless one in fact, as the play goes on, Tina emerges as the less anchored person, needing her ex to step up and care for the kids while she pursues a way to "heal her spirit" and forget memories of a difficult past.
Walker's trademark humour, partly sarcastic, is present, though a strong sense of melancholy permeates the work. Tina's the better-defined character, while Bobby is most in focus when he's angry and passionate about something.
The pair know each other really well, refusing to admit the weaknesses the other exposes and explores. But sometimes their pattern of a brief connection followed by a pushing away feels repetitious.
Director Ken Gass's long-time relationship with Walker makes him familiar with the playwright's world and lets him to evoke these characters not only through their words but also their speech rhythms, emotional tones and physicality.
The reading that the actors and Gass provide the play's last few lines is subtly evocative. It starts with a sense of comedy and hope before striking a different note entirely. Only then do you realize that Gass's set, a rectangle of fallen leaves that fills the intimate Citadel space with the musty smell of a season's ending, has suggested from the start that Bobby and Tina's conversation won't be one of expectant renewal.

Children and children figures in your life also seem fruitful these days and seem supportive of your career. Likewise your friends. Your good work ethic plays well with superiors.
Health still needs watching this month; glad you are on the case. Your health planet, Venus, spends most of the month in your 10th house so health is part of your agenda. You're seeing that the career goals you seek are unachievable without decent health. Good health is an important component of success. Good health impresses superiors. Enhance your health until the 8th by giving attention to the heart. After the 8th is given to the small intestine. Appropriate health for you (especially after the 8th) means a healthy career, not just 'no symptoms'. This is happening and this is a reliable signal for health.
The love life is tolerable this month. Mercury, the love planet, makes progress in the 9th and is in 'mutual reception' on Venus from the 8th onwards. This implies that the two love planets in your chart. Mercury (tangible) and Venus (generic) are co-operating with each other. Each is a guest in the house of the other. Thus, friends are furthering romance. They are playing Cupid, making introductions, giving advice. Sometimes someone who was only a friend becomes more than that. Romantic opportunities happen as you get engaged in groups and group activities. The online world is a source of romance too. There are some rough spots between the 22nd and 23rd and the 25th and 26th. Be more patient with the beloved on those days. Also, he or she should stay out of harm's way those days. Avoid risky kinds of activities.
Previous month, on the 18th, Saturn, your financial planet, moved back into your sign. This brings money and financial opportunity to you. The message here is 'achieve your career goals and money will just follow'.
Avoid overseas travel from the 5th to the 7th and on the 11th and 12th.
Best Days Overall: 6, 7, 8, 16, 17, 18, 25, 26

KILLJOYS – Season 5 Episodes 7 & 8 – SPOILERS
John's efforts to locate The Lady's real body have the unexpected side effect of resurrecting Lucy (Tamsen McDonough) with all her memories intact. Once awakened, Lucy is able to rescue Fancy Lee (Sean Baek) from captivity, and in the process of his escape he stumbles on four large cocoons, the suggestion being that they contain The Lady's real body, which means that The Lady might be some sort of ruling council rather than a single individual, or that her body might be stored in separate segments.
Zeph (Kelly McCormack) and Pree (Thom Allison) set out into the badlands on foot to escape The Lady's death squads (which look a lot like the Jawa from STAR WARS). Pree must be in really good physical condition, because, when Zeph can't walk any further, he carries her on his back the rest of the way to Turin's safe house, a distance he estimates at twenty miles.

Organizational History
Lab Four Professional Development Center was formed in response to acknowledging the reality that individuals stuck in low-paying, low-skilled jobs are highly unlikely to escape the cycle of poverty and achieve self-sufficiency without increasing access to opportunities for work advancement. The transition from getting by to getting ahead requires several steps. Technical training leading to industry certifications in high demand fields is one step that leads to financial gain. Many job training programs offer comprehensive "soft skills" training individualized to the target population served. Although these programs excel in soft skills development, they often lack the capacity to also offer high-level technical training. We use a strength-based approach to developing partnerships that results in optimal workforce training.
Mission Statement
Lab Four's mission is to become a key workforce development partner in three ways: by providing the best possible technology training to help businesses become more successful, providing the skills and credentials necessary for individuals to secure stable employment in a high-demand industry, and partnering with non-profit organizations to help our community fulfill its vast potential. We will accomplish this through the most innovative, effective, and ethical methods possible from top to bottom.
Our vision is to serve as a key workforce development partner, a community and regional training resource, and center for industry certified training in the tri-state area of Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee.
Our current local workforce is comprised of a large portion of unskilled and low-skilled workers whose highest educational attainment is a high school degree/GED or less, and who are often trapped in low-paying jobs in the service industry. This subset of the workforce is more likely to be unemployed or underemployed, working multiple jobs without benefits, and at the fringe or below the poverty level. Due to these and other socioeconomic disparities, the pathway to completion of a college education has narrowed and is largely non-existent for many of these individuals.
Our goal is to create a local pipeline of highly skilled workers that will be competitive in the 21st century job market. These workers will have the knowledge, skills, credentials and abilities to secure stable employment at a living wage leading to self-sufficiency, a higher standard of living for themselves and their families, and career growth in a high-demand industry.
What we do
Lab Four specializes in providing technical training using industry recognized curriculums that lead to industry certifications. We focus on technical training within industries showing potential labor market growth. Our training is a viable alternative to premature college entry for high school/GED prepared individuals and a source of re-training for displaced workers.
Benefits of Collaboration
Successful workforce development requires a more comprehensive approach that includes "soft skills" or personal leadership skills, "hard skills" or technical training, on-the-job training (OJT) and innovative strategies toward job placement. Rarely can one agency or organization alone provide quality, comprehensive workforce development services. We collaborate with other organizations that excel in soft skills training and provide additional opportunities for OJT and job placement to ensure that our technical training is optimized for each client.
Our Approach
We believe that communities must be a part of the solution to challenges they face. Therefore, we employ a community-based approach to workforce development. We rely on collaborative relationships with community-based organizations and businesses committed to improving economic livelihood and prosperity within the community they serve. Through collaborative relationships we employ a comprehensive workforce development model individualized to the needs of community members. There are a number of ways to create innovative solutions that can benefit our clients, organizations and communities at large. See our partners to find out more about our projects.
A strong workforce is an indicator of a healthy community in which people can find good jobs and create new economic opportunities. Community leaders committed to achieving economic prosperity emerge through collaborative efforts, becoming positive role models and instilling hope in their communities. The community shows signs of growth such as stable housing, lower crime and more assets and resources. Vibrant communities benefit the well-being of all residents.

It's vital to retain one's capacity for surprise, and ours was found to be in good working order when we saw over the weekend that BMW has created something we had previously considered to be oxymoronic – an exciting hybrid car.
Before you cancel the Prius order please note that the immemorably named Vision EfficientDynamics car is only a concept, and bears all the hallmarks of that category, which is that it looks incredible, but will never be built.
The appeal lies not just in the incredible silhouette, fascinating layered bodywork and jaw-dropping exterior lighting, but in the idea that it accelerates like an M3. The car's virtues are so extensive we're happy to overlook the fact that, at heart, it's a 1.5L diesel. www.bmw.com

It's no secret that health reform has put hospitals in a difficult position.
As I've written before in the New York Times "Room for Debate" blog, reform incentivizes hospitals to consolidate in order to standardize practice patterns, but they must be wary of monopoly issues that arise from mergers:
Jonathan Gruber, an economist who helped shape the Affordable Care Act, sums up the dissonance health reform proponents face: "There is a tension between the benefits of coordinated care and the possible consequences of market power."
Will reformers regret their push to consolidate health care? The answer depends on how this tension is resolved.
It appears that the government is taking steps to resolve the tension.
In another article from the Times, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is growing wary of such mergers, which allow growing hospital groups to dictate the health care prices for consumers.
This puts hospitals in a difficult position: On one hand, they are encouraged by health reformers to consolidate in order to reduce practice variation, yet are told by the FTC that doing so runs afoul of antitrust laws.
It's another obstacle that hospitals must navigate to survive in an increasingly foreboding health care environment.

WASHINGTON — The White House brushed aside threats by North Korea on Wednesday to cancel an upcoming summit meeting between President Trump and the North's leader, Kim Jong-un, saying it was still "hopeful" the meeting will happen — but that Mr. Trump would be fine if it did not.
"The president is ready if the meeting takes place," Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House press secretary, told Fox News on Wednesday. "And if it doesn't, we will continue the maximum pressure campaign that has been ongoing."
White House officials said they were taking North Korea's latest warnings in stride, in part because Mr. Kim, not Mr. Trump, had sought the meeting. They said they expected the North to maneuver for tactical advantage in the run-up to the meeting, which is scheduled for June 12 in Singapore.
When Mr. Trump was asked on Wednesday about the prospects for the summit to go off as planned, he was noncommittal, telling reporters in the Oval Office, "We'll have to see." Mr. Trump said he would still insist on the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula in the talks.
In its warning on Wednesday, North Korea said Mr. Kim could withdraw from the meeting over Washington's demand that it unilaterally abandon its nuclear arsenal.
The sudden change came after months in which Mr. Kim presented himself as a statesman, changing his image from tyrant to moderate on the world stage. By issuing the latest threat, the North reverted to his earlier hard-line stance on retaining nuclear weapons and to a North Korean playbook that includes sudden shifts in tactics when negotiating with other nations.
But American officials acknowledged that the North appeared to be seeking to exploit a gap in the administration's messages about North Korea — between the hard-line views of the national security adviser, John R. Bolton, and the more conciliatory tone of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who has met twice with Mr. Kim in Pyongyang to lay the groundwork for the summit.
In a recent television interview, Mr. Bolton said the precedent for the North Korea negotiations should be Libya, which agreed to box up its entire nuclear program and ship it out of the country. Mr. Bolton said North Korea should receive no benefits, including the lifting of sanctions, until it had surrendered its entire nuclear infrastructure.
Mr. Pompeo, by contrast, put the emphasis on the American investment that would flow into North Korea if it agreed to relinquish its nuclear arsenal. He, too, said that the North would have to agree to "complete, verifiable, irreversible denuclearization," the technical shorthand used by the administration to describe its bargaining position with Pyongyang.
The president has shifted between a hard-line and more conciliatory tone in his statements about the North, although in recent days he has expressed excitement about a potential breakthrough with Mr. Kim. He has not yet responded to the warning Wednesday issued by the North's first vice foreign minister, Kim Kye-gwan, which took direct aim at Mr. Bolton.
People close to the White House said the uncoordinated nature of the statements reflected the newness of the president's national security team, but also the fact that Mr. Trump was distracted by the swirl of legal issues around him, from the Russia investigation to payments his personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen, made to a pornographic film actress.
Some officials suggested that Mr. Trump needed to rein in Mr. Bolton, though they expressed few qualms about the White House's broader strategy. Officials noted that the United States had not made any concessions to Mr. Kim, beyond agreeing to the meeting itself. Mr. Kim has agreed to stop nuclear and missile tests and to blow up an underground nuclear site in the presence of foreign journalists.
While the daylight between Mr. Bolton and Mr. Pompeo gives the North Koreans the opportunity to drive a wedge between members of the president's national security team, officials said that was a more manageable problem than when Mr. Trump publicly undercut Mr. Pompeo's predecessor as secretary of state, Rex W. Tillerson, over how to deal with North Korea.
Assessing the North's recent statements, Koh Yu-hwan, a professor of North Korean studies at Dongguk University in Seoul, said North Korea had begun to fear looking weak by taking unilateral steps, like its moratorium on missile tests. He noted that the United States, rather than offering concessions of its own, has vowed to keep up its maximum pressure on the North if it fails to quickly denuclearize.
"The last thing Kim Jong-un can afford is to look like he is surrendering his nuclear weapons," Mr. Koh said.
If North Korea's tough statements on Wednesday caught officials in Seoul and Washington off guard, they also reflected a well-established North Korean stance, with Mr. Kim saying his country wants to enter talks with the United States as an equal nuclear power.
Few analysts said North Korea would ultimately go so far as to cancel the Singapore meeting. Rather, the threat to withdraw was an attempt to raise the price that Washington would have to pay to get any significant concessions on the North's nuclear program, analysts said.
"The goal is to change the subject from what the U.S. wants to talk about — denuclearization — to Pyongyang's preferred focus: U.S. military exercises, the U.S. 'threat' and by extension the U.S.-South Korea alliance," said Evans J.R. Revere, who directed Korean policy at the State Department during the administration of President George W. Bush.
North Korea's abrupt change in tone began Wednesday, when it indefinitely postponed high-level talks with South Korea, blaming the joint military drills known as Max Thunder with the United States that began last week.
When Mr. Kim met with President Xi Jinping of China twice in the past two months, he sought support for his country's longstanding demand that Washington and its allies take "synchronized" steps to satisfy the North's security needs in return for any "phased" moves toward denuclearization.
North Korea turned to China because, as the North's biggest economic benefactor, it can provide the best economic and political cover as Mr. Kim confronts Mr. Trump over his demands.
When South Korea's president, Moon Jae-in, met China's premier, Li Keqiang, in Tokyo a week ago, the two urged Washington to address North Korea's concerns about its long-term security.
The two leaders agreed that "rather than asking North Korea to make unilateral concessions, the international community, including the United States, should actively participate in guaranteeing a bright future for the North, including security guarantees and assistance for economic development, if it denuclearizes completely," Mr. Moon's office said at the time.
Cheon Seong-whun, an analyst at the Asan Institute for Policy Studies in Seoul, said North Korea's main goal in coming negotiations with the United States was to "weaken the influence of American forces in Korea."
One aim is to try to stop the United States military from bringing nuclear-capable aircraft or vessels to Korea. That was why on Wednesday the North vehemently protested South Korean news reports that American B-52 long-range bombers and F-22 stealth fighter jets had participated in the current drills, Mr. Cheon said.
The United States military denied the participation of B-52s, saying that Washington and Seoul had decided not to include them in the exercises "some time ago," said Col. Chad Carroll, a spokesman for American forces in South Korea. But the participation of F-22 stealth jets will not be affected by the North Korean protest, the South's military said.
In China, analysts said that Mr. Kim's about-face was a return to his normal behavior. The trajectory of the past several months was uncharacteristic, they said.
"Kim Jong-un has been soft like a dove, but he also has a side to him like an eagle," said Wu Qiang, a writer on current affairs and former lecturer at Tsinghua University. "This change of mind is more normal."
Mark Landler reported from Washington, Choe Sang-Hun from Seoul and Jane Perlez from Beijing. Motoko Rich contributed reporting from Tokyo.

Manly through! Locky's Gone!
At 6-0, the Broncos bombed a try with Dale Copley headbutting the ball out of Jack Reed's hands as he soared high to take a kick. Reed was in and Copley bombed it....this error compounded just minutes later when Copley again, knocked on just ten metres out from the Broncos try-line, to which Manly scored easily. Manly 12-0.
From here, it would take a colossal effort for Brisbane to get back into the game, and they fought valiantly, but Manly were never seriously threatened as try-saving tackles were made by Jamie Lyons, and others but ultimately Brisbane missed Lockyer, and Sam Thiaday never really stepped into the role. He gave away some silly penalties and simply was off the pace all night....
Manly should be without Steve Matai and Tony Williams, who were both placed on report, but will have Glen Stewart back for the decider.

What Clients Say
Maria is a truly inspirational coach. When we started, my work-life balance was non-existent and my confidence shattered. She has helped me to become the man I knew behind my mask. She has helped me to rebuild and reboot. Now I believe in myself, I am confident, and I am finally living my life. My confidence around women has changed and I am successful. I'm happy again. Because of Maria, I have high self-esteem and look forward to every day. Maria is amazing, and I am so glad she is part of my life.
I came across Maria by sheer luck. I was going through a bit of a dark period, struggling with my self-esteem and self-worth, and her posts on Instagram struck a chord. We started talking and now we Skype at least once a week. I love that I can talk to her from the comforts of my own home. She helps me to tear down the road blocks in my head that I've subconsciously created over the course of my life. It's not easy, but I feel like I have learned more about myself and am growing more within the comforts of my own skin than I did with any psychotherapy session I had years ago. Maria is relatable and extremely conscientious. Thank you Maria.
I have seen Maria public speaking and each time it gave me self-confidence. I had lost my confidence over the course of a decade for various reasons, and had been unable to regain it even though I tried various other things. Given this, I asked Maria whether she could help me regain my self-confidence through her coaching sessions and she kindly accepted. She was open and honest about what she can do. Her sessions boosted my confidence and, to my surprise, she eventually helped me to restore my self-confidence to pre-lost levels. I can confidently recommend Maria's coaching session to those who want to restore their self-confidence, which has been lost through various life events.

Medial pontine syndrome
Medial inferior pontine syndrome is a condition associated with a contralateral hemiplegia.
|Medial pontine syndrome
|Pons. (Medial pontine syndrome affects structures at the bottom of the diagram: the corticospinal tract, abducens nerve, and occasionally the facial nerve. Medial lemniscus is also affected, but not pictured.)
"Medial inferior pontine syndrome" has been described as equivalent to Foville's syndrome.[1]
Although medial pontine syndrome has many similarities to medial medullary syndrome, because it is located higher up the brainstem in the pons, it affects a different set of cranial nuclei.
|Structure affected
|Corticospinal tract
|Contralateral spastic hemiparesis
|Medial lemniscus
|Contralateral PCML (aka DCML) pathway loss (tactile, vibration, and stereognosis)
|Abducens nerve
|Strabismus (ipsilateral lateral rectus muscle paralysis - the affected eye looks down and towards the nose). Abducens nerve lesion localizes the lesion to inferior pons.
Depending upon the size of the infarct, it can also involve the facial nerve.
Medial pontine syndrome results from occlusion of paramedian branches of the basilar artery.

This post will cover the Autumn Equinox / Mabon ritual and celebration held by the Circle of Fountains.
This year's equinox ritual was led by Andrea!
Each sabbat, a different Circle of Fountains member writes and leads the ritual. Each member has a different belief system or practice and often incorporates that into their celebration. Andrea has written for Witchy Words in the past about her Egyptian-influenced pagan beliefs. You can check out that article here. Though her personal beliefs are strongly influenced by Bastet and Seth, you'll find that her rituals are inclusive of the variety of CF member paths.
The celebration began with a potluck feast put together by all attendants. We had everything from chicken to potatoes, carrots to corn and even desserts made of apples and pumpkins!
After dinner, we began on our ritual crafts!
Each circlemate received a packet filled with everything they needed to create their crafts.
In the first craft, we created a scroll on papyrus. We were asked to write various statements, such as things we planted this year that didn't turn out or things that did more damage than good.
We then sat those aside to create miniature mummies!
Here's my finished product.
After crafting was complete, Andrea asked that we take our papyrus and enter the ritual area.
For this particular ritual, Andrea hosted it at her house. It gave us an opportunity to see her personal ritual room. Here's some highlights!
We began by calling the quarters utilizing Egyptian gods that properly corresponded with each direction.
As a holiday of equal day and night, Andrea celebrated the equinox as a time to find inner balance. Representing that balance was a feather and scale, an ode to Ma'at who is the goddess of truth and justice. In ancient Egypt, your heart would be weighed against the feather of truth to determine if you were worthy. Also awaiting you at the scales would be Anubis, who would place your heart on said scales, Thoth, who would document the information and Ammit, the devourer of the dead.
On the table were figures that represented each of these gods, goddesses and demons.
Andrea asked us to take our papyrus and roll them into scrolls. Then, using wax and a candle, we sealed our scrolls and set it with a small heart.
This ritual, however, was not about judging our lives. We judge ourselves enough every day. Instead, if the scrolls were lighter than the feather, our struggles would take longer to come to resolution. If they weighed more than the feather, then they would be resolved quickly.
As we went around the room, we discussed our regrets and concerns of the past year.
And not everyone's scroll was heavier than the feather.
Once everyone's scrolls had been weighed, that concluded Andrea's ritual! We released the gods at he quarters and completed our celebration.
From my family to yours, I hope you had a thankful and grateful equinox!

What To Consider Prior To Getting A Vinyl Liner Swimming Pool Carmel IN
Whether you live in the South where Summers are exceptionally hot and dry, or on the East Coast where they are warm with an exceptional amount of humidity, having a cool place to relax in is essential to maintaining comfort during these hot months. While some people prefer simply staying indoors with the air conditioning blasting, others prefer taking a dive into their swimming pool. As someone who is considering installing a Vinyl Liner Swimming Pool Carmel IN, there are a couple elements to take note of prior to committing to anything, ensuring that you make the right decisions for your individualized situation.
Choosing The Right Design
Much like when purchasing a house, many people go into a Swimming Pool purchase with stars in their eyes, focusing on the biggest and best options, regardless of whether a particular design is too expensive, or will function right for their backyard space. As such, it is important to carefully consider the size of your backyard, shape of the area that you want to have the pool installed, and choose an option that will best accommodate that space. In doing so, you can save a drastic amount of time and money by avoiding having to restart the process after a contractor has already been hired.
Choosing A Contractor
In addition to choosing the right Swimming Pool Carmel design, you also have the option of choosing a contractor for the job. The benefits associated with hiring a contractor is that you have a more personalized resource for providing you with the solutions best suited for your situation. By going this route, you will often get results that are more in tuned with what you want, with all of the details covered.
In all, a swimming pool purchase is an exciting occurrence that also requires a degree of responsibility. And while the exhilaration of having a pool installed can overshadow these responsibilities, it is important that they do not go neglected. Consider the above elements in the decision making process to not only save time, but save you money in the long-run, as with jobs like these, more time spent on the project often means more money out of your pocket.

Garlic is a must for many cooks, and the great news is that here in Michigan, it's actually very easy to grow garlic. It can be tucked just about anywhere in the garden, and, when you grow it yourself, you really get two crops in one. You get the bulbs, which is what most people think of when growing garlic, but you also get the scapes (which are the flower stems) which you can harvest in late spring to early summer. The scapes provide a delicate garlic flavor, and are great in many dishes that would benefit from a bit of garlicky goodness. Let's take a look at how to grow perfect garlic here in Michigan.
Garlic Types: Hardneck or Softneck?
There are two general types of garlic to choose from: hardneck and softneck. Michigan gardeners will have better success with hardneck varieties.
Hardneck Garlic Varieties (Allium sativum var. ophioscorodon)
Hardneck garlic varieties are generally hardier than softneck varieties, making them the best option for Michigan gardeners. They are also the best option if you want to enjoy garlic scapes, because hardnecks are the only type that send up a storng central stem, or scape, in spring. Hardneck varieties tend to form fewer cloves per bulb than softneck varieties, but the individual cloves tend to be bigger.
Within the hardneck family, there are nine sub-types of garlics: Purple Stripe, Marbled Purple Stripe, Asiatic, Glazed Purple Stripe, Creole, Middle Eastern, Turban, Rocambole, and Porcelain. The Purple Stripe and Rocambole types are the hardiest, best for gardeners in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and other parts of the state with very long, cold winters. Gardeners who live in warmer zones, such as those in southern lower Michgan, can easily grow all of the hardneck types.
How and When to Plant Garlic in Michigan
Here in Michigan, you'll want to plant your garden in October and November — before the ground freezes hard, but after we start getting cooler temperatures. This will allow the bulbs to start forming roots before we get a deep freeze.
Garlic needs a site in full sun to grow well. To plant garlic, dig holes or furrows six inches apart and three inches deep in loose, well-drained soil. Place individual cloves (separate them – don't plant entire bulbs of garlic) in the holes, pointy end up, and cover with soil. Water them in. If you have squirrels or other animals that try digging them up, consider covering the area with chicken wire or wire mesh — the foliage and scapes can still grow through it, but it will deter wildlife from digging them up.
Spread a six-inch deep layer of organic mulch, such as fall leaves or straw, over the planting area. Within six to eight weeks, shoots might emerge if the weather is warm enough. This is fine — the plant will stop growing once the soil gets cold, and growth will start up again in the spring.
Companion Planting: What to Plant Near Garlic
Garlic is one of those crops that you can plant throughout your garden to help naturally deter pests. It actually accumulates sulfur, which is a naturally-occurring fungicide that will help protect your plants from diseases. Garlic also helps repel insects such as aphids.
Best Companion Plants for Garlic
Garlic helps the plants listed below grow better. Because garlic isn't overly picky about where it is planted (as long as it is in full sun), it's easy to tuck it into the garden wherever you have a spare spot. Plant garlic near: tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, eggplant, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, kale, carrots, and kohlrabi.
Avoid planting garlic near beans and peas, since it may stunt the growth of both plants.
Garlic Pests and Problems
Garlic really isn't bothered by many pests or disease issues. Rot can sometimes be a problem; guard against this by providing your garlic with good, well-draining soil. The most common pest is squirrels and other animals, which may dig up the bulbs. Deter them with chicken wire, as mentioned above in the "planting" section.
Another common concern gardeners have is that sometimes the garlic will send up green growth in the fall after planting, when we don't expect to see any foliage until spring. This is nothing to worry about; growth will halt once the weather cools, and the bulb will send up new green growth in the spring.
Growing and Harvesting Garlic
Once you have your garlic planted, there really isn't much to do. In spring, give the bed a topdressing of compost and/or bloodmeal, then do this again once you see the scapes. Harvest the scapes when they just begin to curl. When the foliage has turned yellow and dead looking, it's time to harvest your garlic. Dig it up, and let it cure in a dry place for several days.

Ex Prime Minister Baroness Thatcher lost a testicle during an operation because the surgeon cut it off by mistake, a General Medical Council (GMC) hearing has been told. Dr Omar Ghulees was only supposed to cut out a cyst, but removed the whole right testicle instead.
"I honestly thought I was operating on a woman and believed that what now turns out to be the right testicle was simply a large hairy cyst." said surgeon Dr Ghulees.
Dr Ghulees was a locum surgeon at the swanky Cromwell Ritz HospiHotel, at the time of the surgery in September 2003. He is accused of misconduct, treason and stealing medication. It is alleged the doctor, who is now practising in Los Angeles and was not present at the hearing but gave evidence on Skype, also injected himself with a drug meant for a patient.
Sarah Prickhard, counsel for the GMC, said the mistake was made as a nurse helping the surgeon turned her back to get him a drink and a smoke. When she turned around the Thatcher testicle had been removed.
Ms Prickhard said: "Literally as the nurse turned away to get a JägerBomb and a Marlboro, the incident occurred and the testicle was removed. Such was the level of concern they immediately realised it could be a serious medical incident and took steps to complete the relevant whitewash documents as prescribed by the GMC."
A month later it is alleged that the surgeon stole ninety boxes of dihydrocodeine from a treatment room on a ward at the same hospital. An investigation was launched and the doctor was dismissed by his employer, Abu Dhabi HospiHotels plc which ran the hospital.
The GMC was told of another incident in August 2006, this time working for Northern Penile Hospitals NHS Trust, when Dr Ghulees had consulted a colleague and was advised to inject a patient with 10 milligrams (mg) of midazolam, a powerful sedative drug. He then gave the patient 1mg and injected himself with the other 9mg, the hearing was told.
Sentencing Dr. Omar Ghulees in abstentia to 'a slap on the wrist', the GMC panel proffered their sincere condolences to Baroness Thatcher (who was subsequently awarded £50 million compensation), on the loss of her testicle and commented that, if it was any consolation, she always had another one.
The Ex-Prime Minister refused to comment on the ruling. "She can't." said an aide, "She's totally out to lunch."

The Cover
It was 'pre-loved' and although described as only used once, that once must have been tough! It came a bit dinged and battered, but, to be honest, I liked that. I still like it. I think it has a bit of an Indiana Jones look about it and I'm not afraid to throw the filofax in my bag (unlike the way I am a little more precious about my Baroque personal filofaxes).
The Quality
There has been a lot of coverage recently about the poor quality of filofax inserts, filofax binders, and the company in general. I am not about to start into all that, but I have been disappointed with Filofax both as a company and as a product recently. This Mulberry is (like old filofaxes) of good quality. The ring mechanism is perfect, the leather is great, the linings are robust etc.
The Pockets
On the inside cover (reverse of the front cover) there are two pockets: one partial-height pocket which has three card-slots in it and one full-height pocket behind. I have credit/bank cards in the card slots, which works fine. I keep paper-money in the full-height pocket. This is a little stiff and the opening of the pocket is a bit too close to the rings, making getting money out a little tricky. Thankfully, the cover is flexible enough to be able to bend it back to get easier access, but it could have been cut to the same size as the partial pocket's width. The partial pocket is less useful to me. I have slipped receipts into it, but it's not currently used much.
At the back, there is a zipped pocket with a full-height pocket behind. Currently I keep coins in the zipped pocket and cards I don't need quick access to (but want to have on me) in a pocket-filofax card-holder, slipped into the full-height pocket. I have another of these pocket-filofax card-holders on the rings. The coin-pocket is a little tricky to get money out of and I'm contemplating re-using one of the coin-hacks I have used before, and moving stamps and other bits and pieces into the zipped pocket. I do like to be able to see how much money I have in change without having to root around in the pocket!
The Pen Loop
This is down as a con for me but would probably for many of you be a pro! It's too big for me to put my Zebra biro/pencil combo in – it falls straight out. Currently, my pen/pencil combo is in a Leuchtturrm self-adhesive pen loop which is attached to a piece of acetate at the back (acting as pen-loop and paper protector combined).
Although it looks as if the cons are significant, they are all bearable, and the pros most definitely out-weigh them. To be honest, the ability to make my own inserts so easily is one of the biggest bonuses. It's allowing me to contemplate making a whole host of custom-made inserts and print them on fountain-pen friendly paper. Bliss.

- Brand: Shop Notes | Category: Magazines
I suspect I'm like most LJ's on here and love to read anything about woodworking. Blondie recently had asked my what I would like for my Birthday, not really needing anything I said these books would be great. I have been receiving the magazine for just over a year now. This is 4 years worth of magazine's binded in separate one year hardcovers, @ $89.50 http://www.shopnotes.com/
I love this subscription, great pics and projects with plans. Very little advertising, while I understand the importance of advertising sometimes magazines tend to have just a little to much for me. The subscription comes with the 3 ring binder holes in them so you can place them in a binder.
These hardcover books are high quality and the pages are thick grade paper that will resist tearing out for years. I have ordered some of there of there other books that are by far the most reasonable priced on the market at $9.99 http://www.woodsmithstore.com/sibooks.html
I would give it 6 Stars if available, thx for reading and I hope this helps!

I would LOVE it if ShopNotes would put all their back issues on DVD in .pdf format like Wood Magazine did for the 25 years DVD ROM set… Paper media is great, but I love the space saving benefits of DVDROM instead of paper…

I have every issue of ShopNotes and its probably my favorite of all the woodworking magazines. When I first got serious about woodworking I relied on these magazines to learn the craft. Like you said ShopNotes is not filled with adds and they always have great plans for jigs and shop items.

When i got serious about my woodworking i started with their magazine as well. I liked the idea of NO advertising! It was great and i had it for about 2 years worth. I thought it was kinda cheesy though that every picture of a pair of hands was of the same guy lol…Just because he had, nice hands. If i remember correctily most of thier projects where for the shop, which at the time, was fine with me. I now subsrcibe to the e-version of Fine woodworking though because of the more interactive website.
