Radio Controlled Rocket Glider Kits
Information Page: Applies to all kits, each kit has it's own specific build instructions but read this page first.
Items needed for assembly:
Foam safe CA+ with accelerator for most glue joints. I use Bob Smith gold with the black cap or Hot Stuff UFO Foam safe Thick CA, **other CA's may melt the foam, test on scrap if you aren't sure. DO NOT use CA debonder on the foam without testing on scrap.
3M-77 spray adhesive for laminating if needed.
Items needed for rocket flight:
1S 500 mah 3.7V lipo battery or similar
Adapter wire to connect battery to the receiver
2 12-18" servo extensions:12" extension 18" extension
2 10-11 gram micro type servos I prefer Hitec HS-65 HB, they are more expensive but are quality servos.
Transmitter with elevon/delta mixing capability (Spektrum DX-6e or similar) (optionally with ability to put glide up-trim setting on a switch)
Finishing Materials:
I have personally used model master and testors enamel small rattle can flat black, flat red, olive drab, and gray on depron foam. If you are masking over painted foam, the tape may pull up the paint so you can't use a masking tape that is too sticky, I use blue masking tape but it isn't perfect, so I try to avoid color schemes that require masking painted foam. You need to be careful not to spray too close to the foam or the spray solvents can melt the foam. Use many light coats, not one heavy one. I don't recommend any other brand of paint, and it's always good to test on spare foam first. There are methods to use thinned water based polyeurethane to coat the foam first, but I haven't done that and I like to keep my models as light as possible. One customer tested Rustoleum direct to plastic paint on some scrap and it seemed to be ok, but then it damaged the top surface of the wing, an online search showed that you needed to keep at least 2' away when spraying and it was not specifically listed as ok for foam in any case, so again, I'd stick with the model master/testors enamels.
www.stickershock23.com is my go-to person for cut vinyl, he has excellent turnaround time, does great work based on just an idea, and his prices are very reasonable. The vinyl is lightweight and easy to work with.
**Notes when applying stickershock vinyl decals.
Stickershock decals are supplied with a stiff backing sheet and a sticky thinner facing sheet. You should trim as closely around the markings as possible, then remove them from the stiff backing sheet. Be careful with small markings to be sure they come with the facing sheet and aren't left stuck on the backing. They will now have the sticky backside exposed. Apply the decal to the area desired. THIS IS IMPORTANT...when removing the facing paper, especially on painted surfaces, you want to roll the facing paper off carefully while pressing down with your fingers/thumb to make sure it does not pull up paint or the marking. You don't want to just pull the sheet off like a sticker. On smaller markings or on thin stripes, it might be easier to remove the marking from the backing/facing sheet and apply it straight to the model to avoid pulling up any paint. Once the markings are applied, apply heat from a hair dryer, and press down the markings once you see them soften, you should see them start to show the foam grain underneath, they should stay well attached at that point. Be careful if you try to use a heat gun not to warp or melt the foam.
Rocket motors:
It's recommened using the aerotech 24mm E-6 motor for first flights since it gives the slowest boost and allows time to trim the model if needed. They are easy to use, just grease the inside of the case, o-ring, and forward end of the propellent and outside of the liner(I use synthetic SuperLube) , insert propellent, insert nozzle, insert o-ring, screw shut. Retail Cost per flight for the reloads is as good or better than Estes Black powder E motors and they have approx 40% more total impulse. I use a baby/handy wipe and paper towel to clean inside the case every three flights or so or after I'm done flying. Here's a video showing how to reload the 24mm aerotech motor.
See theOrdering Page for ordering.
These models were designed and engineered for very light weight and slow glide, with a moderate boost speed of approx 88fps. The use of higher thrust motors, while entertaining, may exceed the structural limits they were designed for. In addition, the higher thrust motors give less time and margin for steering on the way up to account for any trim, cg or wind issues you may have.
Notes on radio equipment and flight battery(many radios will work, this is what I use and know will work)
Transmitter: I use a DX8gen2 radio, but the new DX6 has most of the same features, 250 model memory, mixing, flap switch for glide trim...pretty inexpensive. These models require mixing of the aileron/elevator channels to provide control. Simple 2-5 channel radios usually do not provide this feature. It may be possible to purchase an electronic mixing module to add to the model. You also need to be able to put in trim for glide, you can do this manually with the trim tab but you will need to set and re-set this each flight. The 6 channel radios and higher usually include both the mixing feature and the ability to program up trim on the flap switch which allows easy setting/resetting of the trim position on a switch.
Receivers. I fly spektrum and use the full range micro AR400 receiver.
Most receivers can run with 3.5V or better input so a larger capacity 1S battery(500mah) should work fine. Servos will run a tad slower. The 1S batttery will need a plug or adapter that is compatible with your RX. If you need more nose weight for balance and you don't want to add lead, you can just use a larger flight battery instead.
I use a hitec x1 charger which is overkill for a 1s battery but I use it for charging my transmitter and 3s batteries as well X1 Charger
This is a nice tiny charger that uses a usb connection: USB Charger You Just need something with a jst connector, will charge a 1s battery and have a charge rate about 500ma or so. I fly a single battery and am doing 10-12 flights on one battery with only about 150mah out of 500 being used...
Launch Pad: For flying at my local RC field I made a very simple pad. Since I boost straight up and then can steer into the wind if needed I didn't need any angle adjustment. I simply used 2" sch. 40 black abs pipe available from the local home depot, with legs about 2' long with end caps on one end and put some threaded ends on the other. I bought a "+" shaped intersection and put threaded couplers into each inlet of the intersection. That way I can screw the legs in or take them out for transport. To mount the rail I bought a 8" by 1/2" bolt. I drilled through the intersection in the middle for the bolt to pass all the way through and secured it with a nut and washers. I used two hose clamps to clamp the rail to the bolt in two places. The bolt naturally tends nest in the rail slot and keep it straight. Originally I cut a 12" long piece of black abs pipe and slide that over the rail and it stops on the hose clamps and acts as a standoff to keep the model up off the ground. Now I just put another 1" hose clamp on the rail and snugged it up tight, the model will stop against the screw portion of the hose clamp. You can add a blast deflector if you think you need it, the E-6 motors don't make a lot of flame so I don't use one, I keep the model about 12" from the base when I launch.
Notes on Flying
It is recommended you use a 6' rail to launch your model to avoid any flex/whip which can happen with a rod. If you do use a rod, make sure it is at least a 6' 1/4" rod to give sufficient airspeed on launch, you'll need to add a 1/4" launch lug to the model centered on the CG location at least 5" long. The rail buttons are designed to be used with standard 1010 rail that can be purchased online and from the 80/20 corporation on ebay/amazon.
*While these models are very easy to fly and boost, they are not intended for a novice flyer. Initial flights may require minor trimming to be done both for boost and for glide. It is best to use one of the low thrust long burn motors for these initial trim flights to give time to react to any trim adjustments needed. It is best to have an experienced R/C pilot do the initial flights/trim and fly with a buddy box with you for subsequent flights until you are comfortable. Even though they boost with little to no input once trimmed, do not assume that you can leave your radio off and/or not touch the controls. It is hard to judge winds aloft and you must be ready to keep the model boosting straight if needed.
Turn on your transmitter and then receiver. Install a loaded motor. Ensure your balance is still correct and all control surfaces are in the correct position for boost and are moving the right direction.
Check your glide trim setting is correct if you have that on a switch, but make sure you switch to boost setting for launch!
Be sure to use a standoff with at least 12" from the blast deflector or pad to avoid any hot particles from bouncing back and melting the foam.
Do not put the standoff directly below the nozzle for the same reason.
Once the model boosts, react quickly in either pitch or roll to keep the model pointed straight up or slightly away from you so you can see it. As the model reaches apogee, push the model over to level flight to keep flight speed and then switch in the trim setting. If you let the model get away from you it can get very small quickly and be very hard to determine orientation. Sometimes it helps to turn yourself in the direction of the flight of the model to avoid getting confused. For the first flight you may have some roll or pitch trim that needs to be set for boost and/or glide depending on how straight you built your model. Adjust as needed.
Once gliding, circle your landing spot while not banking too sharply which causes the model to lose altitude. Do not let the model get too slow till you have a feel for how it flies. Set up for landing into the wind. If you find you are slightly high, it is better to make gradual S turns back and forth keeping the model pointed into the wind slightly to lose altitude and avoid a downwind turn. When about 20 feet off the ground start to level the model and let it settle, if it gets too slow, push the nose forward slightly. About two feet off the ground pull back slightly to flare and soften the landing. If you have a model with fully movable surfaces it is a good idea when landing on grass to relax the up elevator just before touchdown to prevent the tips of the controls from catching on the grass/dirt and damaging them. It may take some time to judge your landing spot so fly in an large open space till you are confident in your landings. If you keep the model overhead you can always adjust your altitude with S turns. If you let the model get very far away it can be hard to judge orientation. If there is a headwind, launch up wind and make sure not to go too far downwind or you won't be able to make it back to the launch site.
Be sure to check the controls, battery attachment, wires, launch lug or buttons before each new flight to be sure nothing loosened.
If you have any slight damage you can use the spare depron to repair it. Simply cut the damaged piece out, cut a new piece, insert and glue in place. You can use the blenderm tape to give extra strength if needed. If the depron gets cracked, and it is a clean break, you can re-glue and tape as well.
Can I learn to fly RC using a rocket glider? Short answer is not really, unfortunately. Even though these are relatively easy to fly, they don't have an on off switch and you need to do some trimming during the first few flights. It is nearly impossible for a new flyer to keep his left/right straight while trying to trim a model going 60 mph straight up in a few seconds. There are a few micro rocket gliders available that can boost hands off and have only yaw/pitch control, but flight times are very short and it's hard to gain the skills you need in that short of a time. If you have an rc club near you, you could have someone experienced do the first few flights for you to get it trimmed, but you still should fly with assistance/a buddy cord till you are confident. There is simply no point in destroying a nice model learning how to fly. If you have no help or clubs nearby I recommend the eflite radian or radian umx. The latter is a smaller lighter/cheaper version, it can't be flown in much wind though due to the light weight. These are good models to learn to fly with and when you have confidence in your abilities, you can move to rocket gliders. If you get the spektrum radio suggested in my information page it will be usable for these models and rocket gliders.
When flying, practice chopping the throttle and doing deadstick landings, judging your decent rate and airspeed beause that's what you will have to do when flying the rocket gliders. You should still have someone experienced help you set up and do the first trim flights if you aren't comforable. Simulators are also a good way to get experience. I've found that it really helps when people are trying to learn. When I was doing instructing, people that would come back for lessons each week that were doing simulator practice often had improved their flying skills, while others had to re-gain a bit each time they came back. One thing I feel though, is that simulators, as good as they are, aren't great at helping landings, since it is very difficult on a simulator to judge distance and perspective/altitude, but they are great tools.

When the air becomes crisper, and the hayrides begin, baseball fans know that one thing has arrived: the World Series. For over 100 years, the Fall Classic has brought a spirited conclusion to the Major League Baseball season.
At game four of the 2017 World Series, the hosts, the Houston Astros, gave one young fan the experience of a lifetime – throwing out the ceremonial first pitch. Incredibly, she did so with an artificial hand.
Hailey Dawson has a goal – to throw out the first pitch at every stadium in Major League Baseball.
So far she has thrown out the first pitch at three stadiums: Oriole Park, Nationals Park (homes of the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals), and Minute Maid Park (home to the American League Pennant-winning Houston Astros).
Dawson's goal seems quite lofty for a girl without a fully formed right hand.
Dawson was born with a disorder called Poland syndrome, which causes underdeveloped and deformed hands. Her right hand only has a fully formed pinky and thumb.
Hailey is a huge baseball fan and refuses to let her condition slow her down. She wears a custom 3D-printed robotic hand which allows her to grab and throw a ball, as well as other activities.
Major League Baseball commissioner came away quite impressed with Hailey after meeting her at the World Series.
He said, "She's really a terrific young lady. It's an honor for Major League Baseball to have her here to throw out the first pitch. It's an amazing scientific and medical accomplishment."
After tossing the first pitch for the Orioles and Nationals, she received a massive amount of invitations from MLB teams. At least 17 MLB teams including the defending champion Chicago Cubs reached out via Twitter.
Even minor league and college baseball teams wanted her to come throw out the first pitch. Hopefully, the World Series is just the beginning of her quest.

While the fall postseason began Saturday with golf's state meet, the regular season is coming to a rapid close in the other sports and local teams are in the thick of the action.
Here's a glimpse of the week that was and what's on tap:
Saturday, at Natanis Golf Course in Vassalboro, Greely placed fifth in Class A and Falmouth was seventh. Thornton Academy won with a team score of 310. The Rangers had a score of 334 and the Yachtsmen finished at 341.
Greely was led by Joe Piwowarski, who shot a 79 over the 18-hole course. Erin Holmes shot an 83, Aidan Roberts finished with a round of 85 and Sam Burgoyne and Jacob Storey both shot an 87.
Falmouth's low scorer was Alex Whitmore (82). Also scoring were Reed Lonsdale (85), Riley Lonsdale (87) and Louis Mainella (87). Dex Dremann's 97 wasn't factored in.
In Class C, North Yarmouth Academy shot a 393 and was sixth (Mattanawcook Academy took first with a 323). The Panthers were paced by Dana Nichols' round of 93. Also scoring were Owen McCarthy (98), Haven Cutko (99) and Jake Malcom (103). Conner Millett's 105 wasn't factored in.
The golf season comes to a close Saturday back at Natanis where Class A, B and C boys' individual champions and an all-class girls' individual champion will be crowned.
Greely's boys' soccer team has come to life. Last week, the Rangers extended their win streak to three and their undefeated streak to six with a 4-1 home victory over Kennebunk and a 5-0 home blanking of Cape Elizabeth. Jacob Nason scored twice and Kalle Ekholm and Hunter Graham both had one goal against the Rams. Nason had a hat trick and Ekholm and Lucas Watt also scored against the Capers. Greely (6-3-2 and fourth in the Class B South Heal Points standings at press time) was at Lake Region Tuesday, has a pivotal showdown at Yarmouth Saturday, then closes at home against York Tuesday of next week.
Yarmouth, the defending Class B champion, improved to 10-1 and second behind Maranacook in Class B South after blanking host York and Kennebunk by 4-0 scores last week. Against York, Patrick Grant, Matt Dostie, Luke Groothoff and Nick Kamra had the goals. In the win over the Rams, Grant, Christopher Pidden, Nate Gallagher and Henry Becker all tickled the twine. The Clippers were home against Gray-New Gloucester in a playoff rematch Tuesday, play host to Greely on Senior Night Saturday and close the season at Falmouth Tuesday of next week.
Freeport improved to 3-6-1 and 11th in Class B South after a 2-0 win at Poland last Tuesday. Nate Smail and Josh Spaudling had the goals. The Falcons home game against Traip Academy Friday was postponed. Freeport was home against Falmouth Tuesday, hosts Poland Thursday, plays the makeup game against Traip Saturday and closes at Waynflete Tuesday of next week.
Falmouth improved to 8-2-1 and fourth with a 4-1 victory at Cape Elizabeth and a 5-0 home win over York last week. Against the Capers, Matt Polewaczyk, Devin Russell, Jonah Spiegel and Ben Wuesthoff had the goals. In the win over the Wildcats, Michael Sanzari scored two goals and Spiegel, Brody Lycan and Olin Rhoads also tickled the twine. The Yachtsmen were at Freeport Tuesday, visit Kennebunk Friday, then close at home Tuesday of next week versus Yarmouth.
In Class C South, North Yarmouth Academy was 7-4 and fifth in the Heals at press time after a 9-0 home romp over Lake Region and a 1-0 loss at Waynflete. Against the Lakers, the Panthers got two goals apiece from Xander Bartone and Bobby Murray and one apiece from Ryan Baker, Noah Dennis, Xander Kostenik, Trevor Lachance and Thomas Pitts.
Against the Flyers, NYA had an 8-7 edge in shots on frame and goalkeeper Zack Woods made six saves, but the Panthers still fell short, thanks to a highlight-reel 40-yard goal from Waynflete senior Willy Burdick.
"It was two good teams, two very even teams," NYA coach Martyn Keen said. "I honestly believe without disparaging anyone else that these are the two best teams in Class C South, but time will tell. When we got chances, we never got a clean shot off. We didn't quite connect. I'm very satisfied with how we played. This could have easily been a tie."
NYA went to Class D South power Richmond Tuesday. After visiting Wells Thursday, the Panthers close at home versus Poland Tuesday of next week.
Greely's girls' soccer team stayed perfect with recent wins at Kennebunk (4-1) and Cape Elizabeth (4-1) and at home over Falmouth (2-0). The win at the Rams was highlighted by a sensational flying header from freshman Anna DeWolfe on a feed from Izzy Hutnak. Against the Capers, the Rangers completed a season sweep thanks to two goals from Hutnak and one apiece by DeWolfe and Courtney Sullivan. In the win over the Yachtsmen, Caroline Swaney scored in the first half and Mitiguy added a goal in the second half.
"Falmouth came out strong and ready to win," said Mitiguy. "Once we got our heads in the game, we shifted momentum."
"There's always pressure when you're undefeated," said Rangers coach Josh Muscadin. "No one will take us lightly. It comes with the territory."
Greely (11-0 and first in the Class B South Heal Points standings at press time) hosted Lake Region Tuesday, goes to Yarmouth Saturday (see theforecaster.net for game story) and closes at York Tuesday of next week.
"We want to keep raising the bar for ourselves," Mitiguy said. "The senior class has been together forever. We're really tight and we really want it. We hope to go all the way this year."
"We don't dwell on the past, but the seniors feel that it's time," Muscadin said. "If we play the way we play versus the way the other teams play, that will help us."
Yarmouth was 4-4-3 and seventh in Class B South after scoreless home ties against York and Kennebunk last week. The Clippers were at Gray-New Gloucester Tuesday, host Greely Saturday and close at Falmouth Tuesday of next week.
Freeport was 3-6-1 and 14th in the region (12 teams make the playoffs) after Friday's game at Traip Academy was postponed by rain. The Falcons were at Poland Tuesday, visit Poland Thursday and Traip Saturday, then close at home versus Waynflete Tuesday of next week.
Falmouth beat visiting Cape Elizabeth, 1-0, lost at York, 1-0, then lost at Greely, 2-0, to fall to 5-4-2 and sixth in Class A South. In the win, Tyler Spence had the goal. Against the Rangers, the Yachtsmen had chances but couldn't finish.
"I was happy with everybody's performance," said Falmouth coach Andrew Pelletier. "We worked hard and played good soccer. That's all I can ask for."
The Yachtsmen were home with Freeport Tuesday, host Kennebunk Thursday and close at home versus Yarmouth Tuesday of next week.
"We'd love to go 3-0 to finish out the season," Pelletier said. "We don't really care where we go into playoffs. We want to go in healthy and playing good soccer and we're on the right road right now."
In Class C South, NYA was 1-11 and 12th in the standings (11 teams make the playoffs) following a 6-2 loss at Lake Region and a 2-0 home setback at the hands of rival Waynflete. Emily Baker and Isabelle Coleman had the goals against the Lakers. The Panthers were home with Old Orchard Beach Tuesday and close at Poland Monday.
All five local field hockey teams were still in the mix for a playoff spot at press time.
Yarmouth will likely be the second seed in Class B South. The Clippers beat host Poland, 3-1, then lost a last-second heartbreaker, 2-1, to visiting Falmouth on Senior Night to fall to 10-2-1. Emilie Martin, Ally MacLeod and Abby McDowell scored against the Knights. In the loss, MacLeod (from McDowell) tied the game late in the first half. Yarmouth dominated much of the second half, but couldn't go ahead and then the Yachtsmen got the winner with 6.2 seconds to play.
"We wanted to come out with a win in this one, but we'll learn from it," said Yarmouth coach Mandy Lewist. "These girls have put together an amazing season so far. We have to continue to focus on a playoff run."
The Clippers closed the regular season at Traip Tuesday.
Freeport was 5-8 and eighth in Class B South at press time (10 teams qualify for the playoffs). Last week, the Falcons lost at Fryeburg Academy, 3-1, and had a game at Traip Academy rained out. Alexa Koenig had the goal against the Raiders. Monday, Freeport played the makeup game at Traip and won, 4-0. The Falcons closed the regular season at Wells Tuesday.
Greely finished 5-9 and was awaiting its playoff fate after closing with a 3-0 home win over Gray-New Gloucester Monday. Mariah Wilcox had a hat trick. Last week, the Rangers (ninth in Class B South at press time) lost at Kennebunk (2-0) and at NYA (1-0).
Falmouth improved to 8-5 and seventh in Class A South after Friday's palpitating 2-1 win at Yarmouth. The Yachtsmen got an early goal from Isabella Libby and the winner from Lisa Smoluk with 6.2 seconds remaining.
"We had the opportunity and we took it," Smoluk said. "I had no idea there were six seconds left. That's definitely the biggest goal I've ever had."
"We were coming up with our seven (players) for overtime and then we scored," Falmouth coach Robin Haley said. "It was great."
The Yachtsmen got 11 huge saves from goalie Elizabeth Amadei.
"(The Clippers) were really, really good," Amadei said. "I was just trying to protect the goal."
Falmouth closed the regular season at home versus winless Cape Elizabeth Wednesday.
NYA extended its win streak to six last week by downing visiting Cape Elizabeth (3-0) and host Greely (1-0) to improve to 9-4 (fifth in Class C South). Against the Capers, Kiersten Marr had two goals and Keeley Bartolini had the other. In the win over the Rangers, Savannah Shaw had the lone goal. The Panthers closed at home against the McAuley/Waynflete co-op team Wednesday.
The playoffs begin this weekend with the preliminary round. The quarterfinals are Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.
It was another successful week for local volleyball teams.
Greely improved to 9-1 in its last 10 matches with a 3-1 (25-19, 25-23, 20-25, 25-21) win at Scarborough and a 3-0 (30-28, 25-23, 25-23) home victory over Gorham.
Against the Red Storm, standout Kayley Cimino had 14 kills, 12 assists and five aces.
"We've been (in close matches) so many times this season, so we keep our energy up the whole match," said Cimino. "We don't let ourselves get down."
"A win's a win," Rangers coach Kelvin Hasch said. "I thought we played pretty good the first two sets. We forgot how to pass in the third set. The fourth set started the same way, so I had to change it up."
Cimino had 14 kills against Gorham. Greely (9-3 and fourth in the Class A Heal Points standings at press time) visited Cony Tuesday and closes at home versus Biddeford Saturday.
Falmouth is peaking at the right time, improving to 9-3 and second in Class A after wins last week over visiting Biddeford in three sets (25-21, 25-23, 25-23) and Yarmouth in four sets (9-25, 25-16, 25-19, 25-18). Lydia Farmer had 11 kills and Julia Treadwell finished with nine kills against the Tigers. In the win over the Clippers, the Yachtsmen bounced back from a slow start, getting 20 assists from Amanda Watson, 12 kills from Farmer and 11 from Treadwell.
"We saw they were getting us in our weak spots (in the first set)," Watson said. "We just had to fix our mistakes and we knew what to do."
"Nights like tonight, when everybody's on, I think we're unstoppable," Farmer said. "
"It didn't start well, but I'm so impressed how we came back," added Yachtsmen first-year coach Molly Northway. "We have an old team on paper, but we have a young team on the court. We had some luck on our side. It's huge for us."
Falmouth was at defending Class A champion Cape Elizabeth Tuesday (see theforecaster.net for story) and closes at home against Scarborough Thursday.
Yarmouth earned a 3-0 (25-13, 25-14, 25-15) home win over Kennebunk (Alison Clark had 10 kills, Breanna Taylor added five kills and Andrea St. Pierre finished with seven aces), then, despite a strong first set at Falmouth, lost in four sets to fall to 8-3 and seventh in Class A.
"It's such a strange game," Senecal said. "You never know. We got outplayed by a team that looked like they wanted it more tonight."
The Clippers were at Biddeford Tuesday, host Cony Thursday and close at home versus Cape Elizabeth Saturday (see theforecaster.net for story).
NYA extended its win streak to five matches last week with a 3-1 (24-26, 25-15, 25-13, 25-15) victory at Wells to improve to 8-5 and sixth in Class B. The Panthers close at Bonny Eagle Thursday.
The cross country regular season wound up last weekend.
NYA hosted Freeport, Greely, Fryeburg Academy and Lake Region. In the boys' meet, the Rangers were first as a team, as Ryan Morrison (16 minutes, 28.85 seconds) was the top individual. The Falcons came in second as a team. Erik Brobst placed fourth (17:19.08) individually. The Panthers were fourth, as Jack Sillin placed 15th for scoring purposes (20:15.78). In the girls' meet, Greely was first, Freeport second and NYA fourth. The Rangers had the top two individuals, Katherine Leggat-Barr (19:03.47) and Carolyn Todd (19:15.54). The Falcons were paced by Lily Horne (15th, 22:51.67). The top Panther was Megan Alberding (eighth, 21:10.55).
Falmouth and Maine Coast Waldorf School joined Gray-New Gloucester and Poland at Cape Elizabeth. The Yachtsmen boys were first and Jeremiah Sands was the top individual in 16:11. MCW placed fourth. Tucker Pierce was fifth individually (16:27.10). In the girls' meet, Falmouth came in second behind the hosts. Mira Wyman was fifth (19:46). MCW placed third and Fiona Ahearne came in third individually (19:41).
Yarmouth ran with Kennebunk and Waynflete at Sacopee Valley. The Clippers boys were first, as Ben Cox-Faxon placed second individually (17:56). The girls were also first, as Anneka Murrin was first individually in 19:32.
This weekend brings the Western Maine Conference championship meet at St. Joseph's College in Standish.
The regional championship meet is Oct. 24. The state meet is Oct. 31. Both will be held at Twin Brook in Cumberland.

Damn: Norman Mailer Dies.
It's a bad year for American authors.
Norman Mailer wrote one of my favourite books of all time: The Armies Of The Night, which I have a sudden inclination to re-read. It tells the story of a march on the Pentagon from two different view points - as a reporter at the event and in the second half as a participant in the march itself. I recommend it.

Recent mass shootings are hitting too close to home. My sister lives just outside of Aurora, Colorado. One of my cousins shops in the Clackamas Mall in Oregon and another cousin attended Virginia Tech when the shooting occurred there. A good Glen Ellyn friend is friends with the parents of the little girl who was the sole survivor of her class in Newtown. I cannot sit still any longer. If this is not the moment to change things, then what will the next moment look like?
Even today, Representative Roskam does not support universal background checks for firearm purchases or any other gun violence prevention measures being discussed in Washington DC.
Following the tragedy in Newtown, there is real political momentum. We must act now to prevent more tragedies. While IL has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation, it is almost meaningless without similar gun laws governing the rest of the country. Crime guns come to IL from many other states, in fact, the number one border for crime guns to cross in the entire country is from IN into IL.
We in Glen Ellyn are in a unique position to ask for change. Our Congressional Representative, Peter Roskam, is a leader of Republicans in the House of Representatives. He is the Chief Deputy Whip, ranking 4th of 232 house Republicans. I believe that he represents a constituency that would want safer gun legislation, because the only other option on the table is arming our teachers, and that is not an acceptable option.
Gun violence takes over 30,000 lives and leads to over 60,000 injuries annually. To the fiscally minded, the Firearm & Injury Center at University of Pennsylvania estimates that the annual cost of this gun violence is over $100 billion. Two of every 5 guns sold are sold without background checks. Since 1982 there have only been 3 years without mass shootings, and six of the 12 deadliest shootings have taken place since 2007. Since 1968, more Americans have been killed by gunfire than in all the wars in our nation's history.
It has been almost 2 months since 20 little children and 6 adults were murdered in CT and it angers me that Representative Roskam is not even calling for the most basic of changes, universal background checks. I am here today to remind my friends and neighbors in Glen Ellyn that we are at a turning point. We must raise our voices and demand change and so I ask the President and Board of Glen Ellyn to support gun safety initiatives in Springfield and Washington DC and I would like to ask my friends and neighbors in Glen Ellyn to contact Representative Roskam and ask him to support the President's gun safety proposals. Rep Roskam can be reached at 202-225-4561.

A taxi driver has suffered critical injuries in a hit and run crash at Epping, north of Melbourne, early this morning.
A red Holden Commodore sedan crossed onto the wrong side of Epping Road and collided head-on with the taxi about 1.20am.
Two men inside the Commodore then ran from the scene without offering help to the taxi driver.
The 35-year-old taxi driver was trapped in his car for some time, and was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
He remains in a serious condition in hospital.
Police are trying to locate two men, both believed to be aged in their 20s and of South Eastern European appearance.
One of the men was wearing a white t-shirt and may have chest and facial injuries. The other man was wearing a black t-shirt.
The crashed Commodore had false registration plates and detectives are speaking to the registered owner.

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) - Late-stage research on Eli Lilly & Co.'s experimental drug Zovant found it can reduce mortality rates from sepsis - a deadly illness that until now was untreatable -- by about 20 percent.
The research was published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Friday, and is to be presented in full at a medical research conference on Sunday.
Sepsis is an illness that's characterized by an overwhelming systemic response to infection, which can quickly lead to organ failure and death. It has a high mortality rate, and there are no existing approved treatments for it.
Lilly's LLY, -2.55% drug has received a lot of attention in recent months. The company's stock jumped in June, when the drug maker stopped a Phase III study of Zovant ahead of schedule after it met research goals. The company will present detailed results of its research at the Society of Critical Care Medicine meeting in San Francisco on Sunday.
New data on Zovant, which showed the drug reduced the relative risk of death from severe sepsis by 19.4 percent, were published Friday on The New England Journal of Medicine's website.
"It's one of the few potential blockbusters coming from (the pharmaceuticals industry) this year, said Adam Greene, an analyst at Wasserstein Perella. The drug is also generating interest because some 30 attempts to create a treatment for sepsis have failed in the past decade or so, he said.
Sepsis can be triggered by events such as pneumonia, trauma, surgery and burns, or by conditions such as cancer and AIDS. It often occurs in hospitalized patients and, in the U.S., is the leading cause of death in non-coronary intensive care units.
The company says 700,000 new cases of sepsis, which has a 30 percent to 50 percent mortality rate, are diagnosed in the U.S. each year. Current treatment is limited to attempts to manage infection and therapy if the infection leads to organ failure.
Greene said Wall Street is likely to get a better idea of how Lilly is positioning the drug for marketing and what effect it might have on the company's revenue.
Lilly may be able to charge from between $3,000 to $9,000 per patient, per treatment, which lasts about three days, he said.
Shares slipped 24 cents to close at $80.75 on Friday.

Joining Lisa-Jo and others this morning for Five Minute Friday, where we cut the words loose for just five minutes, and see where they fall. No editing, just encouraging the others who play along. The topic today is Story.
Stories have always facinated me. Ever since I learned how to read I've read everything I can get my hands on. When I was upset I would often pull one or another of my favorites off the book shelf, and read till I felt better. The story itself didn't much matter, it was immersing myself in it that did the trick. Once I returned from my foray into storyland, I had calmed down enough to deal with real-life challenges.
I've had a number of writer friends throughout my lifetime--including my husband. The relationships have always worked well. They give me original reading material that I voraciously consume. I give them an eager audience, and non-critical feedback. It's good.
My love for stories doesn't just apply to stories between the covers of a book. When I look at people I see story--the story of their lives. As I get to know them I feel like I'm reading a book, full of mysteries to be discovered. As our friendship continues I see the story of their lives unfold, I try to guess what comes next, how things will turn out. I wonder curiously what the author of their story, the greatest and best Storyteller that ever lived, has next. It's fascinating to think of all the possibilities.
Now that I have a little girl I wonder what her story will be like. What will her personality be like? What things will she like to do? What adventures will she have? What relationships will she develop? What will her interests be? Who will she marry and what will their story be? I've watched many friends grow and mature over many years, their story unfolding day by day, but this is the first time I've been allowed a front row seat to an individuals entire life-story, starting at day one. I can't wait to learn what comes next!

with whom, I hope, you are thoroughly reconciled" (Neville
laughed, and shook hands with Hector across the table), "and grant me a
moment's audience."
"You have a claim on me, Mr. Oldbuck, were my business more urgent," said
Neville, "for having passed myself upon you under a false name, and
rewarding your hospitality by injuring your nephew."
"You served him as he deserved," said Oldbuck--"though, by the way, he
showed as much good sense as spirit to-day--Egad! if he would rub up his
learning, and read Caesar and Polybus, and the _Stratagemata Polyaeni,_ I
think he would rise in the army--and I will certainly lend him a lift."
"He is heartily deserving of it," said Neville; "and I am glad you excuse
me, which you may do the more frankly, when you know that I am so
unfortunate as to have no better right to the name of Neville, by which I
have been generally distinguished, than to that of Lovel, under which you
knew me."
"Indeed! then, I trust, we shall find out one for you to which you shall
have a firm and legal title."
"Sir!--I trust you do not think the misfortune of my birth a fit
"By no means, young man," answered the Antiquary, interrupting him;--"I
believe I know more of your birth than you do yourself--and, to convince
you of it, you were educated and known as a natural son of Geraldin
Neville of Neville's-Burgh, in Yorkshire, and I presume, as his destined
"Pardon me--no such views were held out to me. I was liberally educated,
and pushed forward in the army by money and interest; but I believe my
supposed father long entertained some ideas of marriage, though he never
carried them into effect."
"You say your _supposed_ father?--What leads you to suppose Mr. Geraldin
Neville was not your real father?"
"I know, Mr. Oldbuck, that you would not ask these questions on a point
of such delicacy for the gratification of idle curiosity. I will
therefore tell you candidly, that last year, while we occupied a small
town in French Flanders, I found in a convent, near which I was
quartered, a woman who spoke remarkably good English--She was a Spaniard
--her name Teresa D'Acunha. In the process of our acquaintance, she
discovered who I was, and made herself known to me as the person who had
charge of my infancy. She dropped more than one hint of rank to which I
was entitled, and of injustice done to me, promising a more full
disclosure in case of the death of a lady in Scotland, during whose
lifetime she was determined to keep the secret. She also intimated that
Mr. Geraldin Neville was not my father. We were attacked by the enemy,
and driven from the town, which was pillaged with savage ferocity by the
republicans. The religious orders were the particular objects of their
hate and cruelty. The convent was burned, and several nuns perished--
among others Teresa; and with her all chance of knowing the story of my
birth: tragic by all accounts it must have been."
"_Raro antecedentem scelestum,_ or, as I may here say, _scelestam,_" said
Oldbuck, "_deseruit poena_--even Epicureans admitted that. And what did
you do upon this?"
"I remonstrated with Mr. Neville by letter, and to no purpose. I then
obtained leave of absence, and threw myself at his feet, conjuring him to
complete the disclosure which Teresa had begun. He refused, and, on my
importunity, indignantly upbraided me with the favours he had already
conferred. I thought he abused the power of a benefactor, as he was
compelled to admit he had no title to that of a father, and we parted in
mutual displeasure. I renounced the name of Neville, and assumed that
under which you knew me. It was at this time, when residing with a friend
in the north of England who favoured my disguise, that I became
acquainted with Miss Wardour, and was romantic enough to follow her to
Scotland. My mind wavered on various plans of life, when I resolved to
apply once more to Mr. Neville for an explanation of the mystery of my
birth. It was long ere I received an answer; you were present when it was
put into my hands. He informed me of his bad state of health, and
conjured me, for my own sake, to inquire no farther into the nature of
his connection with me, but to rest satisfied with his declaring it to be
such and so intimate, that he designed to constitute me his heir. When I
was preparing to leave Fairport to join him, a second express brought me
word that he was no more. The possession of great wealth was unable to
suppress the remorseful feelings with which I now regarded my conduct to
my benefactor, and some hints in his letter appearing to intimate there
was on my birth a deeper stain than that of ordinary illegitimacy, I
remembered certain prejudices of Sir Arthur."
"And you brooded over these melancholy ideas until you were ill, instead
of coming to me for advice, and telling me the whole story?" said
"Exactly; then came my quarrel with Captain M'Intyre, and my compelled
departure from Fairport and its vicinity."
"From love and from poetry--Miss Wardour and the Caledoniad?"
"Most true."
"And since that time you have been occupied, I suppose, with plans for
Sir Arthur's relief?"
"Yes, sir; with the assistance of Captain Wardour at Edinburgh."
"And Edie Ochiltree here--you see I know the whole story. But how came
you by the treasure?"
"It was a quantity of plate which had belonged to my uncle, and was left
in the custody of a person at Fairport. Some time before his death he had
sent orders that it should be melted down. He perhaps did not wish me to
see the Glenallan arms upon it."
"Well, Major Neville--or let me say, Lovel, being the name in which I
rather delight--you must, I believe, exchange both of your _alias's_ for
the style and title of the Honourable William Geraldin, commonly called
Lord Geraldin."
The Antiquary then went through the strange and melancholy circumstances
concerning his mother's death.
"I have no doubt," he said, "that your uncle wished the report to be
believed, that the child of this unhappy marriage was no more--perhaps he
might himself have an eye to the inheritance of his brother--he was then
a gay wild young man--But of all intentions against your person, however
much the evil conscience of Elspeth might lead her to inspect him from
the agitation in which he appeared, Teresa's story and your own fully
acquit him. And now, my dear sir, let me have the pleasure of introducing
a son to a father."
We will not attempt to describe such a meeting. The proofs on all sides
were found to be complete, for Mr. Neville had left a distinct account of
the whole transaction with his confidential steward in a sealed packet,
which was not to be opened until the death of the old Countess; his
motive for preserving secrecy so long appearing to have been an
apprehension of the effect which the discovery, fraught with so much
disgrace, must necessarily produce upon her haughty and violent temper.
In the evening of that day, the yeomanry and volunteers of Glenallan
drank prosperity to their young master. In a month afterwards Lord
Geraldin was married to Miss Wardour, the Antiquary making the lady a
present of the wedding ring--a massy circle of antique chasing, bearing
the motto of Aldobrand Oldenbuck, _Kunst macht gunst._
Old Edie, the most important man that ever wore a blue gown, bowls away
easily from one friend's house to another, and boasts that he never
travels unless on a sunny day. Latterly, indeed, he has given some
symptoms of becoming stationary, being frequently found in the corner of
a snug cottage between Monkbarns and Knockwinnock, to which Caxon
retreated upon his daughter's marriage, in order to be in the
neighbourhood of the three parochial wigs, which he continues to keep in
repair, though only for amusement. Edie has been heard to say, "This is a
gey bein place, and it's a comfort to hae sic a corner to sit in in a bad
day." It is thought, as he grows stiffer in the joints, he will finally
settle there.
The bounty of such wealthy patrons as Lord and Lady Geraldin flowed
copiously upon Mrs. Hadoway and upon the Mucklebackits. By the former it
was well employed, by the latter wasted. They continue, however, to
receive it, but under the administration of Edie Ochiltree; and they do
not accept it without grumbling at the channel through which it is
Hector is rising rapidly in the army, and has been more than once
mentioned in the Gazette, and rises proportionally high in his uncle's
favour; and what scarcely pleases the young soldier less, he has also
shot two seals, and thus put an end to the Antiquary's perpetual harping
upon the story of the _phoca._People talk of a marriage between Miss
M'Intyre and Captain Wardour; but this wants confirmation.
The Antiquary is a frequent visitor at Knockwinnock and Glenallan House,
ostensibly for the sake of completing two essays, one on the mail-shirt
of the Great Earl, and the other on the left-hand gauntlet of
Hell-in-Harness. He regularly inquires whether Lord Geraldin has
commenced the Caledoniad, and shakes his head at the answers he
receives._En attendant,_ however, he has completed his notes, which, we
believe, will be at the service of any one who chooses to make them
public without risk or expense to THE ANTIQUARY.
Note A, p. #.--Mottoes.
["It was in correcting the proof-sheets of this novel that Scott first
took to equipping his chapters with mottoes of his own fabrication. On
one occasion he happened to ask John Ballantyne, who was sitting by him,
to hunt for a particular passage in Beaumont and Fletcher. John did as he
was bid, but did not succeed in discovering the lines. 'Hang it,
Johnnie,' cried Scott, 'I believe I can make a motto sooner than you will
find one.' He did so accordingly; and from that hour, whenever memory
failed to suggest an appropriate epigraph, he had recourse to the
inexhaustible mines of "old play" or "old ballad," to which we owe some
of the most exquisite verses that ever flowed from his pen."--_J. G.
See also the Introduction to "Chronicles of the Canongate," vol. xix.]
Note B, p. #.--Sandy Gordon's Itinerarium.
[This well-known work, the "Itinerarium Septentrionale, or a Journey
thro' most of the Counties of Scotland, and those in the North of
England," was published at London in 1727, folio. The author states, that
in prosecuting his work he "made a pretty laborious progress through
almost every part of Scotland for three years successively." Gordon was
a native of Aberdeenshire, and had previously spent some years in
travelling abroad, probably as a tutor. He became Secretary to the London
Society of Antiquaries in 1736. This office he resigned in 1741, and soon
after went out to South Carolina with Governor Glen, where he obtained a
considerable grant of land. On his death, about the year 1753, he is said
to have left "a handsome estate to his family."--See _Literary Anecdotes
of Bowyer,_ by John Nichols, vol. v., p. 329, etc.]
Note C, p. #.--Praetorium.
It may be worth while to mention that the incident of the supposed
Praetorium actually happened to an antiquary of great learning and
acuteness, Sir John Clerk of Penicuik, one of the Barons of the Scottish
Court of Exchequer, and a parliamentary commissioner for arrangement of
the Union between England and Scotland. As many of his writings show, Sir
John was much attached to the study of Scottish antiquities. He had a
small property in Dumfriesshire, near the Roman station on the hill
called Burrenswark. Here he received the distinguished English
antiquarian Roger Gale, and of course conducted him to see this
remarkable spot, where the lords of the world have left such decisive
marks of their martial labours.
An aged shepherd whom they had used as a guide, or who had approached
them from curiosity, listened with mouth agape to the dissertations on
foss and vellum, ports _dextra, sinistra,_ and _decumana,_ which Sir John
Clerk delivered _ex cathedra,_ and his learned visitor listened with the
deference to the dignity of a connoisseur on his own ground. But when the
cicerone proceeded to point out a small hillock near the centre of the
enclosure as the Praetorium, Corydon's patience could hold no longer,
and, like Edie Ochiltree, he forgot all reverence, and broke in with
nearly the same words--"Praetorium here, Praetorium there, I made the
bourock mysell with a flaughter-spade." The effect of this undeniable
evidence on the two lettered sages may be left to the reader's
The late excellent and venerable John Clerk of Eldin, the celebrated
author of _Naval Tactics,_ used to tell this story with glee, and being a
younger son of Sir John's was perhaps present on the occasion.
Note D, p. #.--Mr. Rutherfurd's Dream
The legend of Mrs. Grizel Oldbuck was partly taken from an extraordinary
story which happened about seventy years since, in the South of Scotland,
so peculiar in its circumstances that it merits being mentioned in this
place. Mr. Rutherfurd of Bowland, a gentleman of landed property in the
vale of Gala, was prosecuted for a very considerable sum, the accumulated
arrears of teind (or tithe) for which he was said to be indebted to a
noble family, the titulars (lay impropriators of the tithes). Mr.
Rutherfurd was strongly impressed with the belief that his father had, by
a form of process peculiar to the law of Scotland, purchased these lands
from the titular, and therefore that the present prosecution was
groundless. But, after an industrious search among his father's papers,
an investigation of the public records, and a careful inquiry among all
persons who had transacted law business for his father, no evidence could
be recovered to support his defence. The period was now near at hand when
he conceived the loss of his lawsuit to be inevitable, and he had formed
his determination to ride to Edinburgh next day, and make the best
bargain he could in the way of compromise. He went to bed with this
resolution and, with all the circumstances of the case floating upon his
mind, had a dream to the following purpose:--His father, who had been
many years dead, appeared to him, he thought, and asked him why he was
disturbed in his mind. In dreams men are not surprised at such
apparitions. Mr. Rutherfurd thought that he informed his father of the
cause of his distress, adding that the payment of a considerable sum of
money was the more unpleasant to him, because he had a strong
consciousness that it was not due, though he was unable to recover any
evidence in support of his belief, "You are right, my son," replied the
paternal shade; "I did acquire right to these teinds, for payment of
which you are now prosecuted. The papers

Although video-assisted thoracic surgery can be used for well-encapsulated thymomas, its role in invasive thymomas remains controversial. Between 1998 and 2009, 77 patients aged 22-76 years underwent thymomectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery. Tumors <5 cm without major invasion on preoperative computed tomography were selected. There were 13 invasive thymomas (Masaoka stage III and IV). A modified dissection technique was employed to prevent breaching the tumor capsule and risking tumor seedling. Limited resection of the phrenic nerve, pericardium, perithymic fat, and a wedge of lung was performed en bloc with the tumor. The mean duration of surgery was 138 min. Hospital stay was 3.6 days. Eleven patients had associated myasthenia gravis. There was 1 case of wound infection and no operative mortality. The mean size of the thymomas was 34 mm (range, 23-55 mm). All patients had adjuvant radiotherapy. During follow-up of 4.9 years (range, 1-10 years), there was one local recurrence. With the modified video-assisted thoracic surgery technique, selected invasive thymomas detected during surgery can be removed safely without resorting to sternotomy.

They give new meaning to the phrase 'putting forward one's best foot'. Sinewy and agile, keeping abreast with the pacemaker, trudging mile after mile under the scorching sun or the biting cold, aiming for the ultimate prize… the Olympic gold; paid for in blood, sweat and tears. They run for glory, pride written all over their face as the drums roll, the national flag is hoisted and the national anthem sung… "O God of all Creation…"
Reality: They run while aiming at the ultimate prize… feeding their family and surviving the political, social and economic turmoil that bedevils the country as regular as clockwork. At night they pray. They pray for a little less rain. The rain of corruption and tribalism.
A bit of history: Mzee Moroa Galana is dead. Do you know Mzee Moroa Galana? No, you don't. Mzee Moroa Galana is not synonymous with the Kenyan National Anthem. In other countries, he would be a hero. Why? He is the one who suggested the tune of a beautiful Pokomo lullaby be adopted for the national anthem. In other countries, he would be feted as a hero- a living hero. Here, we have dead heroes; immortalised in death (for a short time, anyway, before the next scandal) while they were left to wail in penury while they lived.
The lyrics: O God of all Creation
I refute that God, or at least the one referred to in in our Kenyan Constitution, created everything. Corruption, nepotism and tribalism are definitely man-made in Kenya.
Bless this our land and nation
Kenya is a blessed country: the Great Rift Valley, Mt Kenya- God's own mountain, pristine beaches, a beautiful people… Now, we have water and oil in Turkana. We have seen what oil has done in the Sudans, Nigeria and the Middle East. We shiver at what the future holds for us; for surely as day; the politician will auction our resources to the highest bidder… with the end justifying the means.
Justice be our shield and defender
Once upon a time, justice was our shield and defender… Whom am I lying to? Money has always been our shield and defender… the more, the merrier. Why hire a lawyer when you can buy a judge?
May we dwell in unity
Presently, the only people dwelling in unity in Kenya are the cabals and cartels that run the country; or rather, the cabals and cartels that ruin the country.
Peace and liberty
Foreign concepts that have their origin in European countries. Enemy to the country's progress and development (Our community is being targeted). Still, we need foreign aid and so we have learnt to run a show of peace and liberty in order to receive this aid.
Plenty be found within our borders.
Perhaps it is time we as Kenyans (do politicians count as Kenyans?) really put thought to the words of our national anthem. What is it we want to be found in plenty in Kenya? Corruption? Tribalism? Nepotism?

Storage appliances and the software that manages them have been keensellers and a strong growth area over the last two years as organizations, companies and data centers eagerly put in place infrastructure to house a growing amount of data. However, Gartner's new report, on server and storage user wants and needs in the Asia-Pacific region, casts doubt on the market's ability to sustain its remarkable growth. It states that 75 percent of corporations surveyed in Asia-Pacific do not expect to embark on any major storage acquisitions in 2002, a statistic Gartner reads as a result of over-adoption and under- utilization.
"There are a number of reasons why companies won't be embarking on anymajor storage purchases this year, namely the economic downturn andresulting budgetary constraints, and storage under-utilization," saidPhil Sargeant, research director for servers and storage, Gartner AsiaPacific.
The report goes on to say that the server market will be comparativelystrong this year, with 34 percent of those surveyed indicating theywould execute major server acquisitions this year.
The report represents a change in Gartner's overall message. Untilrecently the Connecticut-based research firm had been espousing thelikelihood of a strong third and fourth quarter for the storage marketthis year. In December, Phil Sargeant, Gartner's storage market researchdirector overseeing Asia-Pacific, said he expected to see a slow firsthalf of 2002 followed by a rebound starting around the mid-term.
Adding to the gloom are new International Data Corp. (IDC) figuresreleased last week showing that the disk storage systems hardware marketin the U.S. fell by US$5.7 billion, or 18.2 percent, in 2001, its firstdecline since 1998.
The U.S. economic recession and the decline of dot-com companies, plusprice competition in the U.S., sent the disk storage market into a slumpthat will continue to ripple throughout the worldwide market, IDC saidin its report 2001 Disk Storage Systems Forecast and Analysis,2000-2005, published last Wednesday.
Despite the general downturn in the market, IDC did point to pockets ofgrowth in 2001, in particular in sales of networked storage systems,which experienced gains of 8.3 percent in 2001. Revenue for that sectorof the disk storage market should reach about US$8.5 billion in 2001,IDC said.
Specifically, NAS (network attached storage) and SAN (storage areanetwork) technologies are showing signs of growth within the networkedstorage systems sector, due to the benefits of storage consolidation andthe need for efficient management of storage infrastructure resources,IDC said.
The slowdown also comes despite renewed interest in storage-relateddisaster recovery systems, a concern aroused by the September 11 attacksin the United States.
Representatives from major storage vendors were not available to commenton the research reports at press time.
The impact of the storage slowdown already seems to be having an effecton market leader EMC Corp. Cost cutting at EMC has yet to have an effecton its bottom line, as the data storage giant last week reported itssecond consecutive quarterly loss.
EMC reported a net loss of US$70 million, or $0.03 cents a dilutedshare, for the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2001, the company saidin a statement. That compares with net income of US$562.8 million, or 25cents per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2000, EMC said.
EMC's revenue in the fourth quarter was down significantly to US$1.51billion, compared to $2.62 billion in the same quarter last year, thecompany said.

How Commercial Cleaning Can Boost Office Productivity
Who doesn't want to work in a clean and well maintained environment? Office cleaning is not just about hygiene, but also about making the workplace more productive. There are many reasons why you should be investing your money and time in professional commercial cleaning services.
To make an impression
If you have clients regularly walking into your office, hygiene and cleanliness is one of the first reasons why they should be going back with a smile. A clean and well maintained office is visually appealing rather than an office piled with old files and dust flying all around.
Staying healthy
When your employees stay healthy, there will be a lower rate of absence, increased focus on the work at hand and overall, a better product/service facilitated. After all, your employees are your biggest asset and you don't want them compromised.
Saving money and time
Cleaning is never a very glorious task and it also takes a lot of time. Even a small amount of time spent cleaning your desk everyday can leave you frustrated. Also, you aren't paying your employees to clean their desks. Hiring an office cleaning service consequently saves you both time and money.
Getting the job done
Once you strike a contract with a professional cleaning service, you wouldn't have to worry about maintenance for the period of the contract. You can thus always expect to run into a clean cubicle.
Boosting Positivity
A clean, bright and good looking office will automatically lead to employees spending more time in their work. They will love to stay in their cubicles and complete their tasks on time. A comfortable, healthy and bright work environment will make your business a success.

The last few days I could not wake up without fighting an uphill battle with the desire to sleep for just a few more minutes. You know how those few minutes become a few more minutes and all of the sudden it's September.
I would be up until 3 in the morning since as long as I remember but I had a great alarm clock back when I was in school, it was called Dad. If you asked for a few more minutes, it was the snooze alarm and it worked twice a morning, the third time you asked for a few minutes he would come in and scream at you until you wake up. I can't believe that I wish he would still do that once in a while.
So tonight I am trying a sleeping pill, which is a bit scary because I am worried that I won't wake up. I might find that I enjoy sleeping and decide to stay that way. I gave in after trying to make it on half nights for a few weeks.
I can't write as much, I feel lazy, and in general am not as functional as a sleep walker. When I am tired I am quiet and less annoying though, but I need my brain back.
Wish me luck.

text: I've only had the game 1 day - its ok - maybe i need more time on it. there are lots of good things but it just feels to slow and unresponsive. Its basically rugby 2005 but a bit more responsive -with quick line outs and quick penalties (which are pointless because your player takes 5 years to tap the ball by which time he has been talked) unlike rugby 2005 you don't have to wait so long for animations to end - but its still not fast enough - not a true reflection of rugby rucks are still too slow and you have little control over them (unlike in Lomu). you cant simple ruck over and fire the ball out quick enough (unlike Lomu) Passing still too slow and now and again the player goes to pass a simple pass but the ball drops onto the floor (stupid) I feel you just don't have enough control of the players ( in lomu you have complete control - you do not have to fight against the animations) Its an OK game - maybe I need more time - but on 2 player Lomu is still the most fun and real rugby game as you can have complete control) By the way I've been playing Lomu a lot over the past few months so I feel I know what im talking about. Rugby 06 has a lot of gloss and graphics and lots of tournaments and stuff (it even has steam on the pitch) but its still not as responsive as lomu - in lomu you have complete control of what you do. PS why is there not an option for the scrum half to pick up the ball from a scrum (only the number 8 can) Maybe lock likes it so much because he is a League fan Anyway - im off to watch the 6 nations now - i have a feeling Italy may spring a suprise against England today.

WASHINGTON, DC, USA, June 19, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Virginia Corporate Whistleblower Center says, "There is nothing more disgusting than a defense contractor supplying the US Military or federal agencies with defective equipment or equipment that does not work. If you work for a company that is producing defective equipment, ships, or weapons systems for the military or any federal agency and the product does not work or perform to specifications-please call us anytime at 866-714-6466 and allow us to explain the federal whistleblower reward program to you. In many instances the reward potential will be enough to retire. Recently a whistleblower received about $5.8 million dollars for this exact type of information." http://Virginia.CorporateWhistleblower.Com
As a background in March of 2018 the Department of Justice announced that the maker of bullet proof vests agreed to pay $66 million to resolve claims under the False Claims Act that they sold defective Zylon fiber used in bullet proof vests that the United States purchased for federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies.
The Corporate Whistleblower Center is extremely interested in hearing from the following types of whistleblowers:
* A manager for a shipbuilder with proof a ship being built for the DoD will never function properly and or meet the specifications of the contract to include engine performance, electronics, weapons systems, etc.
* A manager for a company that makes defective equipment for the US Army, Navy, Air Force or Marine Corps. This could include clothing, body armor, weapons, weapons systems, or vehicles that are defective or that do not meet specification.
According to the Virginia Corporate Whistleblower Center, "If you can prove your Virginia based employer has overbilled the US Government and the amount of overbilling is at least a million dollars please call us anytime at 866-714-6466 and let's discuss how the whistleblower reward program works. Why sit on a potentially winning lotto ticket without ever knowing what it might have been worth?" http://Virginia.CorporateWhistleblower.Com
Simple rules for a whistleblower from the Virginia Corporate Whistleblower Center: Do not go to the government first if you are a potential whistleblower with substantial proof of wrongdoing. The Virginia Corporate Whistleblower Center says, "Major whistleblowers frequently go to the government thinking they will help. It's a huge mistake. Do not go to the news media with your whistleblower information. Public revelation of a whistleblower's information could destroy any prospect for a reward. Do not try to force a company/employer or individual to come clean about significant Medicare fraud, billing the federal government for defective equipment, overbilling the federal government for services never rendered, multi-million-dollar state or federal tax evasion, or a Virginia based company falsely claiming to be a minority owned business to get preferential treatment on federal or state projects. Come to us first, tell us what type of information you have, and if we think it's sufficient, we will help you with a focus on you getting rewarded.
Unlike any group in the US the Corporate Whistleblower Center can assist a potential whistleblower with packaging or building out their information to potentially increase the reward potential. They will also provide the whistleblower with access to some of the most skilled whistleblower attorneys in the nation. For more information a possible whistleblower with substantial proof of wrongdoing in Virginia can contact the Whistleblower Center anytime at 866-714-6466 or contact them via their website athttp://Virginia.CorporateWhistleBlower.Com

Video: How to Patch a Tent
REI Co-Op continues its video series that provides tips on gear repair and maintenance, this time showing us how to patch a tent. Note, that is patch a tent, not pitch a tent. If you're reading this, you're probably more than familiar with how to do the latter. But, we've all had our favorite tents get rips, cuts, or small tears, and fixing them can sometime be a challenge. This video will tell you how to apply a patch and get your favorite outdoor shelter back to as good as new.

This blog comes at the request of one of our members, Cynde. She emailed me asking a question about removing a dart from a pattern and I thought it would make for a good blog post this week.
Cynde has an older (out of print) pattern, McCall's 2091. She wants to use a heavily beaded fabric and doesn't want (and she said doesn't really need) the bust dart in the pattern.
Before going into how to adjust the pattern for what she wants, we first need to know why darts exist in patterns. Darts in patterns allow shaping of a flat object (fabric) into a 3-D structure (the garment). Think of a cone shape. When taking a flat piece of paper, wrapping it into a cone shape, you've take a flat object (paper) and shaped it into a 3-D structure (cone). Darts basically do the same thing to shape a flat fabric over the bust line, in this case.
Darts have "parts". There is the "point", the "legs", and the "take up".
Darts must point to the fullest part of the bust and end within the "bust circle". Have you ever seen a dart on a garment that ends further into the bust circle than it should? Check out Gertie's blog where she discusses her little problem; she discusses the fitting in a light-hearted manner.
Also, remember darts can be something other than a dart. They can be made into easing, tucks, gathers, split into double darts, repositioned, redesigned within seams, and more! Darts really are magical in pattern making and garment design!
Ok, so all that said, our member wants to know how to get rid of the dart in her pattern. Without seeing her figure and the fabric I'd first give a word of caution: are you sure you want to remove the entire dart? Even with small bust lines, a dart serves the purpose of shaping the fabric over the bust area. Perhaps the dart "intake" needs to be less than how it is drafted in the pattern. Remember, most patterns are drafted with a "B" cup sizing. Anything other than the standard B cup for regular Misses sizing on patterns, requires some sort of alteration.
If we were together, I'd ask Cynde, "Are you sure you don't want to alter the pattern for a smaller bust then turn the dart into side seam easing to allow the fabric to still have the shaping it needs while not having to sew a dart in heavily beaded fabric?" After altering the pattern, the intake of the remaining dart could be just eased at the front side seams, not sewing the actual dart.
With commercial patterns the additional steps have already been done as part of the process to finalize the pattern before production.
So, now on to what Cynde wanted. I'm going to show some different things with a quarter scale pattern draft and then cut the altered pattern out of a slightly stiff muslin to mimic Cynde's heavily beaded fabric. You will see why Cynde may or may not want to move the dart; doing so makes the fabric hang differently. In the end, I'll show you how I would do it if I were sewing this tunic for Cynde. Let's get started.
Click on a picture to open it up to a larger view, then hit the back button on the browser to return to this page.
No matter which way Cynde chooses to move her darts, there is still some finalizing of the pattern to be done. For one thing, the shape of the side seams must match. Lay the back and front pattern pieces together as if they were to be sewn and be sure the shape of the seams is the same or the fabric will not sew together correctly and the seam will twist. The length on the back will probably also need to be adjust depending on which method Cynde chooses.
Cynde, please let us know which method you choose and if you would, please send me a photo of you wearing your tunic so I can update this post.
Sew 'til next time….enjoy the journey of sewing!
