The low cost, simplicity of design and intrinsic efficiency of flyback transformers have made them a popular solution for power supply designs of below 100W to 150W. Other advantages of the flyback transformer over circuits with similar topology include isolation between primary and secondary and the ability to provide multiple outputs and a choice of positive or negative voltage for the output.
The reason it is called a flyback transformer is because the primary winding uses a relatively low-voltage saw-tooth wave. The wave gets strengthened first and then gets switched off abruptly; this causes the beam to fly back from right to left on the display.
Any display requiring high voltage to operate and much more.
A very compact CHASSIS THE GRUNDIG CUC70KT for that era and was used even for models of 26 Inches (66Cm) sets with different wooden cabinet colors types.
Highly and friendly serviceability we can see here, and it's not highly complex.
Siemens Co., "Switched-Mode Power Supplies Using the TDA 4600":
A switching mode power supply (SMPS) may be used as an apparatus for supplying power to electronic products. The SMPS converts input alternating current (AC) voltages and outputs static voltages to operate electronic products.The present invention relates to a switched-mode power supply. Such a switched-mode power supply operates on the flyback converter principle, in which a switching transistor is switched through during a switched-on phase and magnetization is in consequence built up in a transformer, and the switching transistor is switched off during a switched-off phase and the magnetization is dissipated again via coupled windings of the transformer.
In a typical switch mode power supply (SMPS) of a television receiver, for example, the AC mains supply voltage is coupled directly to a bridge rectifier for producing an unregulated direct current (DC) input supply voltage that is, for example, ref erenced to a common conductor, referred to as "hot" ground, and that is conductively isolated from the cold ground conductor. A pulse width modulator controls the duty cycle of a chopper transistor switch that applies the unregulated supply voltage across a primary winding of an isolating flyback transformer. In principle a switched-mode power supply comprises at least the following components: a switch, an inductor, a rectifier, capacitor and a load. The load may be considered as a resistance which is in parallel with the capacitor. During the part of the period in which the switch conducts a current originating from the input voltage source passes through the inductor so that energy which is derived from this source is stored in the inductor. During the other part of the period, in which the switch is not conducting, the energy stored in the inductor produces a current through the rectifier which current recharges the capacitor and, consequently, replenishes the energy losses caused by the load. By the adjustment or control of the conducting period of the switch relative to the cycle, the output D.C. voltage across the load can be independent of variations of the input D.C. voltage, for example, it can be kept constant. Such variations are caused by, for example, fluctuations in the electric AC supply where the input voltage is derived therefrom by rectification. A flyback voltage at a frequency that is determined by the modulator is developed at a secondary winding of the transformer and is rectified to produce a DC output supply voltage such as a voltage B+ that energizes a horizontal deflection circuit of the television receiver. The primary winding of the flyback transformer is, for example, conductively coupled to the hot ground conductor. The secondary winding of the flyback transformer and voltage B+ may be conductively isolated from the hot ground conductor by the hot-cold barrier formed by the transformer. Such a switched mode power supply is generally called SMPS. A SMPS as it is commonly used, for example, in consumer devices like television receivers, video recorders, audio equipments etc. generally includes a main switching transistor connected in series with the primary winding of a transformer, a base drive circuit for periodically switching said switching transistor between ON and OFF, and a control circuit for controlling the base drive current for said main switching transistor in such a way that output voltages derived from several secondary windings of said transformer are stabilized.On the other hand such a SMPS generally includes a protection circuit for case of overloading or a short circuit or any other failures within the operating voltages. Said protection circuit is needed since without protection means the collector-emitter current of the main switching transistor can reach excessively high values in case of a failure which might damage said switching transistor or cause any other damages of circuit components.
It's a TDA4600 (SIEMENS) BASED SMPS Circuit which delivers +151V and 12 VOLT St-by supply.
TDA4601 Operation. * The TDA4601 device is a single in line, 9 pin chip. Its predecessor was the TDA4600 device, the TDA4601 however has improved switching, better protection and cooler running. The (SIEMENS) TDA4601 power supply is a fairly standard parallel chopper switch mode type, which operates on the same basic principle as a line output stage. It is turned on and off by a square wave drive pulse, when switched on energy is stored in the chopper transformer primary winding in the form of a magnetic flux; when the chopper is turned off the magnetic flux collapses, causing a large back emf to be produced. At the secondary side of the chopper transformer this is rectified and smoothed for H.T. supply purposes. The advantage of this type of supply is that the high chopping frequency (20 to 70 KHz according to load) allows the use of relatively small H.T. smoothing capacitors making smoothing easier. Also should the chopper device go short circuit there is no H.T. output. In order to start up the TDA4601 I.C. an initial supply of 9v is required at pin 9, this voltage is sourced via R818 and D805 from the AC side of the bridge rectifier D801, also pin 5 requires a +Ve bias for the internal logic block. (On some sets pin 5 is used for standby switching). Once the power supply is up and running, the voltage on pin 9 is increased to 16v and maintained at this level by D807 and C820 acting as a half wave rectifier and smoothing circuit. PIN DESCRIPTIONS Pin 1 This is a 4v reference produced within the I.C. Pin 2 This pin detects the exact point at which energy stored in the chopper transformer collapses to zero via R824 and R825, and allows Q1 to deliver drive volts to the chopper transistor. It also opens the switch at pin 4 allowing the external capacitor C813 to charge from its external feed resistor R810. Pin 3 H.T. control/feedback via photo coupler D830. The voltage at this pin controls the on time of the chopper transistor and hence the output voltage. Normally it runs at Approximately 2v and regulates H.T. by sensing a proportion of the +4v reference at pin 1, offset by conduction of the photo coupler D830 which acts like a variable resistor. An increase in the conduction of transistor D830 and therefor a reduction of its resistance will cause a corresponding reduction of the positive voltage at Pin 3. A decrease in this voltage will result in a shorter on time for the chopper transistor and therefor a lowering of the output voltage and vice versa, oscillation frequency also varies according to load, the higher the load the lower the frequency etc. should the voltage at pin 3 exceed 2.3v an internal flip flop is triggered causing the chopper drive mark space ratio to extend to 244 (off time) to 1 (on time), the chip is now in over volts trip condition. Pin 4 At this pin a sawtooth waveform is generated which simulates chopper current, it is produced by a time constant network R810 and C813. C813 charges when the chopper is on and is discharged when the chopper is off, by an internal switch strapping pin 4 to the internal +2v reference, see Fig 2. The amplitude of the ramp is proportional to chopper drive. In an overload condition it reaches 4v amplitude at which point chopper drive is reduced to a mark-space ratio of 13 to 1, the chip is then in over current trip. The I.C. can easily withstand a short circuit on the H.T. rail and in such a case the power supply simply squegs quietly. Pin 4 is protected by internal protection components which limit the maximum voltage at this pin to 6.5v. Should a fault occur in either of the time constant components, then the cho pper transistor will probably be destroyed. Pin 5 This pin can be used for remote control on/off switching of the power supply, it is normally held at about +7v and will cause the chip to enter standby mode if it falls below 2v. Pin 6 Ground. Pin 7 Chopper switch off pin. This pin clamps the chopper drive voltage to 1.6v in order to switch off the chopper. Pin 8 Chopper base current output drive pin. Pin 9 L.T. pin, approximately 9v under start-up conditions and 16v during normal running, Current consumption of the I.C. is typically 135mA. The voltage at this pin must reach 6.7v in order for the chip to start-up.
TDA 4600 Semiconductor circuit for supplying power to electrical equipment, comprising a transformer having a primary winding connected, via a parallel connection of a collector-emitter path of a transistor with a first capacitor, to both outputs of a rectifier circuit supplied, in turn, by a line a-c voltage; said transistor having a base controlled via a second capacitor by an output of a control circuit acted upon, in turn by the rectified a-c line voltage as actual value and by a reference voltage; said transformer having a first secondary winding to which the electrical equipment to be supplied is connected; said transformer having a second secondary winding with one terminal thereof connected to the emitter of said transistor and the other terminal thereof connected to an anode of a first diode leading to said control circuit; said transformer having a third secondary winding with one terminal thereof connected, on the one hand, via a series connection of a third capacitor with a first resistance, to the other terminal of said third secondary winding and connected, on the other hand, to the emitter of said transistor, the collector of which is connected to said primary winding; a point between said third capacitor and said first resistance being connected to the cathode of a second diode; said control circuit having nine terminals including a first terminal delivering a reference voltage and connected, via a voltage divider formed of a t hird and fourth series-connected resistances, to the anode of said second diode; a second terminal of said control circuit serving for zero-crossing identification being connected via a fifth resistance to said cathode of said second diode; a third terminal of said control-circuit serving as actual value input being directly connected to a divider point of said voltage divider forming said connection of said first terminal of said control circuit to said anode of said second diode; a fourth terminal of said control circuit delivering a sawtooth voltage being connected via a sixth resistance to a terminal of said primary winding of said transformer facing away from said transistor; a fifth terminal of said control circuit serving as a protective input being connected, via a seventh resistance to the cathode of said first diode and, through the intermediary of said seventh resistance and an eighth resistance, to the cathode of a third diode having an anode connected to an input of said rectifier circuit; a sixth terminal of said control circuit carrying said reference potential and being connected via a fourth capacitor to said fourth terminal of said control circuit and via a fifth capacitor to the anode of said second diode; a seventh terminal of said control circuit establishing a potential for pulses controlling said transistor being connected directly and an eighth terminal of said control circuit effecting pulse control of the base of said transistor being connected through the intermediary of a ninth resistance to said first capacitor leading to the base of said transistor; and a ninth terminal of said control circuit serving as a power supply input of said control circuit being connected both to the cathode of said first diode as well as via the intermediary of a sixth capacitor to a terminal of said second secondary winding as well as to a terminal of said third secondary winding.
In the blocking converter described in the aforementioned reference in the literature, "Funkschau" (1975), No. 5, Pages 40 to 44, the power switching transistor is connected in the manner defined in the introduction to this applic ation. In addition, a so-called starting circuit is provided. Because several diodes are generally provided in the overall circuit of a blocking oscillator according to the definition provided in the introduction hereto, it is necessary, in order not to damage these diodes, that due to the collector peak current in the case of a short circuit, no excessive stress of these diodes and possibly existing further sensitive circuit parts can occur.
Supplementing the comments regarding FIG. 1, it should also be mentioned that the cathode of the diode D1 connected by the anode thereof to the one end of the secondary winding II of the transformer Tr is connected via a resistor R11 to the protective input 5 of the control circuit RS whereas, in the circuit acco rding to FIG. 2, the protective input 5 of the control circuit RS is supplied via a voltage divider R8, R7 directly from the output 3', 4' of the rectifier G delivering the rectified line a-c voltage, and which obtains the voltage required for executing its function. It is evident that the first possible manner of driving the protective input 5 can be used also in the circuit according to FIG. 2, and the second possibility also in a circuit in accordance with FIG. 1.

The paste when cured under ASTM conditions crystallizes into a substantially homogeneous mass of monolithic crystals of calcium silicate hydrate exhibiting a unique crystalline structure and having improved compressive strength.
What is claimed is: 1. A building material formed from at least 20% by weight Portland cement, the building material consisting of at least 30% by volume of monolithic crystals of calcium silicate hydrate.
4. A building material formed from at least 20% by weight Portland cement, the building material being substantially uniform monolithic crystals, the crystals having 2θ peaks of 23.+-2 and 37.1.+-2.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to a unique crystalline building material formed by curing a novel paste formed from cement and water.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The crystalline building material of the present invention is formed from a paste having a cement component of at least 20% and preferably 75% by weight Portland cement. After curing the paste, a substantially homogeneous mass of monolithic crystals of similar uniform geometric configuration are formed. The homogenous mass of crystals is very dense with less than 10%, and preferably less than 1% by volume, intraped voids. This building material is produced by a novel process of mixing Portland cement and water in a novel cement paste generator, as more fully described below, and curing the cement paste generated in accordance with ASTM standards.
The x-ray diffraction pattern of the building material according to the present invention was determined on a Scintag Pad-X Powder Diffractometer in the following manner. A cured paste building material according to the present invention was ground into a powder and packed in a standard sample container, thus providing a powdered sample having a large number of individual crystals arranged in a random orientation. The powdered sample was placed in the powder diffractometer and subjected to copper K-2 radiation. The slits on the x-ray source were 2 millimeters and 4 millimeters, with the receiving slits being 0.1 millimeter and 0.3 millimeter. The diffracted radiation intensities were recorded from 15 in a continuous scan mode with a sampling interval of 0.02.degree. and a scan rate of 2
As compared to the standard 2θ values of calcium hydroxide, silicon and calcium silicate, there are two 2θ values that are unique, namely, 2θ of 23.+-2 and 2θ of 37.1.+-2.
With reference to FIG. 17, it should be appreciated that that angle "α" between the outer face of the support ring 32 and the trailing edge of the upper upthrust blade ranges from 45 preferably 80
The paste volume ("V") is also critical. The stationary paste volume should range from a height of 0.5 H1+H2+H3 as a minimum to a height of H1+H2+H3+(4 resting volume height on the shaft of H1+H2 +H3+0.5 R1 to as resting volume height on the shaft of H1+H2+H3+2.5 R1.
EXAMPLE 2 A cement paste generator was constructed wherein, in inches, R1=8.00, H1=3.60, R2=6.50, H2=4.90, R3=3.25, H3=2.37, H2a=0.06, H3a=0.07, G1-G3 =0.20, G4=0.38, G5=0.25, G6=0.50, V=0.99 cubic feet and shaft rpm=500. Using W/C of 0.30 to 0.50 and MT of 60-90 seconds, the compressive strength of the ASTM C109 prepared mortar increased 15-20% as compared to conventionally batched and mixed mortar when tested in accordance with ASTM C109 standard.

Boring stuff: Oracle Service Bus, first impressions
Professionally I consider myself a lucky person. Quite often when I start working on a new (to me) project I get a chance to learn something new: people, techniques, a product, or some technology.
Since beginning of December 2011 I joined a team that is using quite a lot of different Oracle products. One of the products is Oracle Service Bus formerly known as AquaLogic Service Bus. I have not got a chance to work with it before so I took the opportunity to look at it closely.
Oracle Service Bus is really a shiny product that perfectly fits Oracle's SOA strategy and blah-blah-blah standards-based blah-blah-blah mission critical blah-blah-blah and blah-blah-blah. Blah-blah.
Hmmm, does anybody really believe this?!
When I was younger I was naive. Working with something I often thought: "This is baaad. I can't wait to finish this and move on. Next project will be better. Nothing can be worse than this".
Those times are long gone. I know that no matter how strange or convoluted the current project is the next most likely will be no better. The only thing left is a bit of curiosity: one never knows what kind of SNAFU du jour one comes into. But looking at OSB old memories come back. Can anything actually be worse than this?
I started writing down my impressions but researching something on OSB I came across this post. If you ever get a chance to use OSB go read it and be prepared.
The post reflects my experience with OSB and it has more information than I collected so far. Moreover the author expresses itself much more politely than I wanted to.
I am not sure if everything in that post is up to date. After all the post is like a year and a half old, so things might have improved. But do not hold your breath.
There are also some things I have experienced but they are not mentioned in the referenced post. The most amusing one is lack of undo in IDE (Eclipse with a lot of Oracle's plugins). Come on Oracle, it is 2012. No undo? Seriously, how much worse it can get? You can only do mouse-driven development in OSB. You do not want even see their XML, trust me, let alone edit it by hand. And it is really easy to mess something up with a wrong mouse move. Even changing some property or expression has no possibility of undo.
My advice? Maximize your return on investment, stay away from Oracle Service Bus.
And if you are not convinced, read on.

Not the news we were waiting for but great nonetheless!
I had asked Amber, our AWAA contact, what the time frame for the adoption process would be. On their literature, they list it as 10 months.
Here is Amber's response:
This is the word I received from the main office on the Rwanda wait time... "3-6 months, though I expect this to continue to increase." Wow, huh????
We are just so happy about this response! Just think, we could have our new little one here next spring or early summer! That is a crazy thought!
We still haven't received our approval letter. Amber said that she sees us in her system though. They will call us then send an email that contains our packet. Good thing I know this because Kaylee and I have been staking out the mailbox!

After we told the kids about the adoption, Kaylee and I were driving to OKC to see Pappy. This is what she said: "Mom, it doesn't matter that my sibling will be brown. God loves us all the same." This statement from her is a sweet reminder that God is in charge. I know that we will have issues come up with our child being a different race than we are. However, God is in charge and will help lead us through these times. I know he will give us the right words to say!
Facts about Rwanda:
1. Kigali - the capital - is the city in Africa most frequently visited by American Christian Rock Bands and stadium-filling Evangelists coming to convert Rwandans to Christianity (despite the fact that almost everyone is Christian already).
2. Fried grasshopppers are a delicacy in Rwanda, but you have to keep the lid on the pan while you are frying them alive, or they tend to jump out.
3. 50% of the population of Rwanda is under 18.
4. Rwanda is well known for its Gorilla population - as popularised in the book and film Gorillas in the Mist.

Who knew this is where we would be! God has a great way of continuing our story without us even knowing. Ryan and I have decided to adopt a child from Rwanda.
We thought our family was complete. We had always said that we wanted 2 kids and we were blessed with K and C. However, a few months ago, the desire to adopt was placed upon my heart. I was so scared to tell Ryan...I thought he would for sure say no. But he did not! Instead he did his "research" and came back a few weeks later with a "I told Rande we are thinking about adopting." This blew me away! And from there we have started the process. We completed and shipped out our application last Tuesday and got a call from AWAA on Friday saying that our application was complete and they were sending it to the next department! We should hear back in 10 days. Then we start our Home Study. The home study should take approximately 6 weeks.

Half-Told Tales | Musings of Khlari
A Peculiarity of Penguins »
In order to refute the scurrilous rumours put about by Mr SC that I never write anything belying my role as an MA student, I thought I’d post this one. This one is for my grandmother, Emily. It was finalised at about the time Mr SC wrote ‘Stories of Dad’. My grandmother was an unusual and fairly eccentric woman, though always vibrant and full of life……

Pray tell, when on earth have I ever said that? Honestly, it would appear you and AD are doing a hatchet job on me, what with the two of you talking of nagging and other scurrilous fabrications. Be gone, I say! You’re both touched by madness. But then, I’ve known that FOREVER… 😛
Humph. You don’t deserve to have this entry highlighted with such tittte-tattle but because I love you despite your obvious flaws, I am featuring this one in my latest Creme de Bloggers. You may thank me by casting aside these perversions of justice, or you shall face a bill for libel which will amount to at least £500 in Monopoly money and a demand for more Doctor Who action figures by way of compensation.
Crème de bloggers 3 » The Spicy Cauldron » Blog Archive Says:
[…] Half-Told Tales is about Khlari’s grandmother, Emily, who was, we are told an ‘unusual and highly eccentric woman’. Must be in the gene pool, then. But seriously, this is a very beautiful poem that has so much flavour and atmosphere to it, you really must go have a read and see what you make of it yourselves. Khlari honours her grandmother’s memory greatly. […]
See? Shows I love ya! 🙂
This is a beautiful tribute, and I only wish I had your talented skills as a writer. Is this the same lady who chased the icky man down the street with a fry pan? If so she unknowingly brought smiles to a Canadian face decades later ,,, 🙂 Thank you for sharing this!
Khlari, you’re a cheeky minx. No doubt about it. x
One and the same Sue…also ran the entire production floor of a London brewery during the blitz, (in charge of all the men) after she was bombed out twice (not bad for someone who was 4’8″ tall!)

Ballroom Class: 2007
Wanted Ballroom Dance Partner
Wanted Ballroom Dance Partner.
Dance competitions are developed to match the personal skills and measure the dance development of each couple competing with other simiarly ranked couples. It is here where each of us learn more about ourselves, as well as our fellow teachers.
In truth it is a real test in personal character. And thats the heart of it.
What everyone has immediately became aware during their first experience at a dance competition is the excellence of the people who are involved. The social and cultural atmosphere is very much like dance heaven, and those of us who have experienced this a number of times are hooked. For some very good reasons too.
It is here, in the test of competing with others, and cognition what you are competing in, Ballroom Dance , that the true issue of " how you are measured " to prevailing dance standards you are being judged by. And it is here where the preparation, sociocultural perceptions, and time invested clearly comes to full view of your, our, fellow dancers.
Thus the quality of the people themselves and the sociocultural atmosphere they, we, produce is what most of us have been looking for since the age of 8. A dream world of goodness and futuristic happiness.This is what is being offered.

The Debutant Cotillion Ball
From a Family Diary ( Condensed ): The social event of the year for all Southern young ladies and gentlemen of Atlanta, Georgia, The Debutant Cotillion Ball at The Grand Peach Street Ballroom. This was my first during the year of " Our Lord " 1895 for the Month and Day of June 1st.
The grand and splendid event was filled with the Young Gentry - Escorts and their Ladies who during the year turned 16 in our time of American Innosence ( as we call it ). I remember well the ballroom dance class at my finishing school at Jonesbourg. Here Dance Master Irving Greene gave strict instructions during each Ballroom Dance Class. Ladies should always exhibit " demure " during the time in which your escorts help you to fill your dance cards. All to the well too. As here you are more than likely to meet your future bow and spouse. Moreover, and as Dance Master Greene pointed out during each interval of the dance class, once you are in the grips of the dance you must show off your spirited regellia of grit and femine graces.
Yes. He was Right. For I saw who I wanted to be my future husban, number 10 on my dance card, and his wonderful name is Steven Christian. Beatrice Smith who did become Beatrice Smith Christian.

This is the description blog of what goes on in Ballroom Dance Class /Classes in Ithaca and else-where.
First the Romance of Ballroom Dance:
Ballroom dancing a time ago was swept in complete gentleness of culture of refinement, deep purpose, and literary greatness, where tea was the latest craz, and gossip hop'ed from one drawing room to another. The dress worth a fortune, and the men lavished the women they loved with expensive jewels, which if some one would total the national collection of American citizens inventory, it could purchase the entire city of Paris outright. The floors clean, and the shoes stepped lively to every tune with grace and posse to envy of any princess and prince. This was " the " time, and the air that swirl about, you knew Ballroom Dance was at it's height of greatness.

Cheetah | Seerowpedia | FANDOM powered by Wikia
Species, Animals, Morphs, Battle Morphs
Rachel, Cassie and Marco in Southern African cheetah morphs.
"When I was done, I took a deep breath and thought: cheetah. Quite possibly the most gorgeous wild cat ever to roam the savannah. [...] I was built for speed. Not endurance, maybe. But oh, yes. Definitely speed. Stunning speed. Zero to forty-five miles per hour in two point five seconds. From a point of rest. From sitting perfectly still. Do you understand that kind of acceleration? I mean, can you even really imagine it? And once the cheetah got going – top speed, between sixty and seventy miles per hour – it could cover almost one hundred feet per second."
―Rachel upon morphing the cheetah[src]
The cheetah is the fastest land animal on Earth and is an extremely endangered species. The Gardens obtained three Southern African cheetahs as part of a population conservation effort, which were acquired by Rachel, Cassie, Marco and Ax in The Weakness.
"The Gardens just got three cheetahs as part of their new breeding program. You know, they're almost extinct."
In an attempt to assassinate Visser Three, Rachel, Cassie, Marco and Ax acquired three cheetahs in The Weakness that The Gardens had recently obtained..
Rachel, Cassie and Marco in cheetah morphs.
"Why cheetahs?"
"Speed. You want to grab the visser quickly, before his guards can react. You want to outrun him in an open space. And pretty much nothing outruns a cheetah."
―Rachel and Cassie[src]
Rachel, Cassie, Marco and Ax used cheetah morphs in The Weakness in an attempt to assassinate Visser Three, whose private feeding ground Tobias had discovered. Although their speed allowed them to get a few hits in, their endurance was limited and thus were nearly killed when the visser was reinforced by the Garatron, who opted to spare the Animorphs, citing that it was Visser Three's responsibility to do so.
Battle Morph Edit
Used by Ax Edit
"This appendage works well to balance the cheetah when it runs, but it is useless as a weapon."
"You’ll have to settle for teeth and claws, Ax-man. Too many people. We don’t need your blue-furred, four-eyed self on the cover of the National Enquirer."
While attacking an airport in The Unexpected to prevent the Yeerks from obtaining and destroying a seized Bug fighter, Jake ordered Ax to use his cheetah morph as a battle morph, as there was uninfested humans in the airport.
Used by the Yeerks Edit
"The first human-Controller morphed to rhino. Another morphed to polar bear. Another to cheetah."
Shortly after gaining the Escafil Device, a few human-Controllers acquired cheetahs. One of them fought the Animorphs in The Sacrifice, although he was subdued by Timmy and Collette and killed by National Guard troops. When the Animorphs succeed in destroying the Yeerk pool, several morph-capable Controllers morph cheetahs to flee the blast radius.
Used by Marco Edit
"Marco in cheetah morph and Ax fought most logically. They each understood that a mere wound was enough, as long as live Taxxons were left undamaged to take care of the finishing off. Marco would accelerate to forty mph, dig his less-than-deadly claws into a victim, leave bloody scratches behind, and prance away far too quickly for a Taxxon to respond."
Marco elects to use the cheetah morph as his battle morph in The Answer, when launching an attack against the Taxxons constructing the new Yeerk pool on Earth, as Marco chose to use logic and speed rather than the gorilla's brute strength.

>May Day / Le Premier Mai | olivesandartichokes
>May Day / Le Premier Mai
Posted on Friday 1 May 2009 by chaiselongue1
On our first morning back from our trip to Wales it seems as though we’ve woken up to the first day of summer. We had a very good holiday and ate excellent food – Japanese, Turkish and our own family Mediterranean mix of delicious things, but it’s wonderful to be back home again. There was rain while we were away so the garden looks very green and bright. One of our neighbours had kept an eye on it for us and thrown out the snails who’d found their way into the cold frame.
Ce matin, le premier après notre retour du Pays de Galles, est comme le premier jour de l’été. Il a plu pendant la dernière semaine et le jardin est vert et clair.
We found a huge crop of mangetout peas and broad beans / on a trouvé beaucoup de pois mangetout et fèves . . .
the apricots and artichokes growing well / les abricots et les artichauts poussent bien . . .
the garden full of the sound of birds and insects / le jardin plein du chant d’oiseau et d’insectes . . .
I thought that this one was a moth at first. Now I think it’s a butterfly but I still can’t identify it. Please leave a comment if you have any idea what it might be.
The pepper plants are still growing very slowly and I think we may have to buy plants but the tomato plants are ready to be planted out so we have a busy weekend ahead!
Les poivrons poussent très lentement encore et je pense qu’il faut en acheter des plantes, mais les tomates sont prêtes à planter donc le weekend sera chargé!

There are elevators, however, some parts are not accessible. You may want to call ahead, in case there are accessibility features I was not aware of. They speak English.
Certainly can do the outside part in that time. You would not manage the museum attached to it

DEVIL AT THE CONFLUENCE: The Palladium / St. Louis Club Plantation added to the National Trust's 2014 list of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places.

The Palladium / St. Louis Club Plantation added to the National Trust's 2014 list of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places.
The lost history of the St. Louis Palladium / Club Plantation, posted at the Devil At The Confluence blog, has been recognized by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the building has been placed on the list of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places.
This is the only landmark in St. Louis ever recognized as an endangered national treasure. In its 27-year history, the NTHP's list has brought attention to more than 250 sites, only a handful of which have been lost, according to the Trust.
The new research and the support from everyone on the Facebook group made the difference and now the possibility of demolition by the VA Medical Center is lessened. The Missouri State Historic Preservation Office and the VA's own independent Cultural Resources survey confirms that the Palladium is significant for its association with culturally important events and social history.
In correspondence to the MSHP, the Veterans Administration said, "At this time, the VA considers it unlikely that the St. Louis Palladium property will be acquired." And in a recent reply to me, the VA's Office of Acquisition, Logistics and Construction said, "Presently the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has no plans to acquire the Palladium building." But the threat by the VA was not the only danger, because deterioration was evident in a recent visit inside of the building.
Not merely "one of the old ballrooms," the Palladium in Grand Center is a historic landmark of our city's significant cultural legacy and has been associated with practically every genre of popular music and entertainment of the Twentieth Century.
The Palladium roller skating rink was built over 100 years ago when St. Louis ragtime was the pop music of the nation. St. Louis' earliest jazz band was playing dances on the huge wood floor by its first birthday in 1914.
During World War II and into the 1950s, the building was the famous St. Louis Club Plantation, a jazz and swing nightclub like the famous Cotton Club in Harlem, New York City. The Jeter-Pillars Orchestra was the Plantation's house band and a proving ground for many of the city's best jazzmen while they hosted legends of American music such as Nat King Cole, the Mills Brothers, and Ella Fitzgerald.
Milestones of music history, the legendary artists and their stories are what make the Palladium more than just an old music hall and worthy of preservation - it is the de facto St. Louis music museum and nothing like this landmark remains as evidence of our legacy.
Gone are sites where the legends like Peetie Wheatstraw, Chuck Berry, and Ike and Tina made the St. Louis sound. Miles Davis' first stage appearances were at an Elk's Club, the Club Riviera, and the Club Plantation in the Palladium building. Only the Palladium still stands.
These world famous, culture-changing locations prove that St. Louis’ contributions are more significant to the development of American culture and popular music than previously assumed. This is our legacy and our identity and it has come very close to being completely lost.
